They started traveling for about 3 hours, non-stop. By the time they got to their first night traveling, Mya was asking to go back. “PLEASE? I’m really tired and hungry! Can’t you see I’m too tired to do anything?” “Did you ever hear of rest?” “Don’t get smart with me!” “Don’t talk to your master like that!” “Sorry.” “You better be. Now, lets get the camp set and get some sleep.” “You said it Tsuki.” Said Artimos as he laid his head down on the sand and yawned.
“There. I’d say it’s good to go to sleep now. Good night Mya. Good night. Artimos.” “Good night Tsuki.” They said at the same time.
Later on that night, a scorpion came into Myas’ tent. It crawled over and bit her on the neck. While that scorpion walked out, a ghostly figure floated into her tent. It sat down near her and started humming and saying scriptures in different languages. “With this bite of this scorpion, may you be cursed with the ‘Scornpionious’ (curse of changing into a scorpion when ever the moon is a crescent.)
Into Tsukis’ tent came a black cloud. It settled upon his eyes and circulated through his ears. Then out of nowhere, a deep voice said, “Your name, Tsuki, is a great and powerful name. It means moon. So your curse will be that when ever the moon is full, you will have the power to go into peoples minds…and kill them.” Then he disappeared.
