章 22: .
Mercury was, strangely, easy to find. Maybe it was because no one ever looked for him, but he was still sitting on the hill where he always was. For some reason, he always sat on that same hill, whether there was rain, sun, or mist.
The hill in question was on the top of a mountain, covered in soft grasses, which gave a peaceful vibe and a glorious view of what was above. There were a few rings and patches of burned dirt and ashes, probably where Mercury had chosen to exercise his anger.
Mercury himself had dark, cobalt blue hair, with a few highlights of yellow and white in it, which formed a cluster of shaggy locks around his head, framing his iron-gray eyes. Those eyes had a strange sort of sadness in them.
Moon slowly walked up behind him, followed by Terra.
Mercury didn't turn around, but Moon had expected as much.
"Hello, I'm Terra." Terra introduced, meekly.
"Why are you here, Merra?" Mercury asked in a cold voice, ignoring Terra and still not looking back.
"I had a change of heart," Moon said sheepishly. Mercury now looked back, raised an eyebrow, regarded Moon for a moment, and then turned around again.
"It doesn't matter. Go. I have nothing to say to the likes of you."
Moon's heart fell a bit, but it was too late to turn back right now.
"Mercury. You don't have to say anything. Can I sit next to you?" Terra asked politely. There was a moment of stunned silence as Moon sucked in a breath. Surely Terra would get the job done if she couldn't. Then, to her surprise, Mercury said,
"You may."
Moon and Terra both took their place respectfully next to him. There was a silence, and Mercury said,
"If I tell you where Proxima is, will you leave me alone?"
Her heart soared. So Proxima was still alive after all!
But… where was she? Moon needed to know. She couldn't live without the information.
So, Moon shook her head. She had learned her lesson with Pluto. Even if she didn't like it, it was still something she had to do - helping people.
"I won't," Moon promised, softly. She couldn't see Mercury's face.
"Lie down, Merra. I'll use my magic to tell you where she is. Proxima lives."
