My tail swayed side to side as I sat by the stairs. Fixing my gaze on the entrance towards the check in room. My ears were perked up as I waited for the arrival of Cinderbelle and our family. Anticipation would of quivered inside me if I wasn`t so exhausted. Even if I only got another hour of sleep. My ears and mind weren`t alert for anything around me. I wouldn`t of noticed if anyone would of yelled my name across the hall! My mind wondered off as I thought what Dad and Zeph would think when they`d see me blind.

*Would they quickly judge? Or would they accept me? Like how I accepted Rolly and when Cinderbelle accepted me. . .*

    "Hey Moonberry! Something up?"

My heart thumped. The fresh, lingering scent of Lollie approached me. I heard the scrapping of her paws as she padded over, I couldn`t hear the squeaking in her wheels for some reason. I rose my head to her as I focus on her. Before I could ask, it was as though she can read my mind. "Ana is going to get my wheels cleaned, this morning I saw the hugest mud puddle outside of Puppy Play Care!" I heard her chuckle. "Though I did get mud on my wheels!"

I could just imagine her bright face drain with concern. My tired eyes glazed more than my clouded gaze. "Hey, you look exhausted. What happened?"

She sat down beside me, I felt her fur brush against mine as she tried to lay down properly with her back legs since she didn`t have her wheels on.

I replied, trying to control my tone from dying off. "I couldn`t sleep that`s all." I didn`t want to mention about Rolly`s coming out until she was ready. so I continued on. "My family is coming over, and I can`t miss the moment  they approach the entrance. I miss my Dad and brother. And seeing new family members. . ." I couldn`t say anymore, my head lowered as I tried to stay awake.

  I felt the grasp of Lollie`s paws push me against her. My fur felt hot as my heart went faster, I didn`t expect her to pull me closer.

"I`ll keep an eye out for them." Lollie said. "You get some sleep. I`m sure you want to be more awake when you see them."

I smiled. I laid more comfortably on her. Breathing in her lingering scent made me feel more safe.

"Lollie?" I murmmered. My bleak eyes growing heavy, as exhaustion took over me.

"Yes, Moonberry?" she replied.

"Can you be there for me--and the others? I don`t want to be alone when I meet them."

My tail began to wag slowly as I suddenly felt the touch of her nose on my ear, drifting to sleep. "Of course! I`ll be sure to tell them when they`d arrive."

I fell deeper asleep, feeling safe and secure, knowing that she is right next to me.

   "Wake up Sleepymoon, they are here!" I woke up. My ears rose up, distant voices rang my ears.

*They are here!*

I scurvied up onto my paws, my sleepiness still was on me. Making me slip when I placed one paw wrong. I could hear the patters of my friends trailing behind. But my family. their scent was something I can`t ever forget. I followed it next to the stairs and suddenly heard my name.

"Moonpie. . .?"

I quivered more with excitement. "Dad! Dad!" I yelled happily. my tail was wagging more than I could contain, tears streaked through my face as I ran over. "Dad! I`m here!" I yelled again. Feeling the warmth of their emotions rush through me as I huddled against Dad.

"Moonpie! I am so glad to see you! I thought I lost you. . .Oh my girl, you are okay, your okay!" My dad whimpered. A new voice interfered , whipping my head as the excitement faded from me.

"This? This, is your daughter?"  My tail slowed down at the comment.

"Yes, Ember. This is Moonpie. My daughter I mentioned that I lost in the fire" his tone was uncertain. I hoped he wasn`t questioning.

"What`s wrong with her eyes? Surely those aren`t normal?" Ember questioned, I could just picture Ember`s eyes narrowing down at me. I didn`t flinch at the comment, I knew that my step-mother would criticize me.

I felt as though my heart fell to the ground and shattered hearing the voice of my own brother sneering at me. "Looks like she injured herself. What happened, Moonpie? Too afraid to admit the truth? Was that why you stayed away?"

"What?" I gasped. I couldn`t believe nor understand what he was meaning. *Is my brother questioning me for being away? After all I went through! Why would he do that? He`s my brother.*

"Your brother told me the truth, you did it. You destroyed Fiona from the falling tree. He heard her yelp. He recognized it anywhere. You dropped the tree, and killed your mother." Ember growled.

I couldn`t believe my ears. I growled back a reply, approaching Ember with anger. "I would never do that to my mother! I loved her and would of saved her from anything! I can`t believe you would believe and make up such a stupid lie like that!"

"I didn`t make it up. Zeph said the truth. Your siblings believe it too. You made yourself blind for pity."

Cinderbelle voice echoed from afar, I could scent someone else next to her that I couldn`t recognize at all. "Moonpie would never lie to me, you or her friends!" she snapped

Zeph snarled at his sister. "Stay out of this Cinderbelle, you wouldn`t know any different. Anything she says makes sense to you."

I shuddered, I felt as though I was being torn apart. I look to where I scented my Dad. I waited for a reply from him. Tears choked me painfully when I heard him reply.

"I don`t think I can possibly believe you, Moonpie. With no proof. I will go along with your brother`s. I believe his words."

I couldn`t hold my tongue. I felt anger pulse through me as tears dripped down my cheek. "Why choose him over me? You just got me back! After these months, I thought we`d at least be together again and be a family!! I thought you`d accept me! Why do you reject me now!"

Dad snarled, she couldn`t bear to imagine him baring his teeth at her. "We can never be thanks to you!"

"I didn`t do it!"

"Then why did you not come back?"

"I almost was killed in the fire!! It took me weeks to heal, not just physically, but emotionally from my mom`s death! I thought I lost my family!"

"I should of never trusted you! I can`t believe that you`d be so heartless! You can`t even tell the truth! You will never be part of this family!"

My heart stopped. I flinched at his words, it gripped me so hard like arrows piercing me. I gave up, looking at him. I shrank low, I felt small compared to my father.

"Why should I even love my own dad, when he rejects me like this."

I shrank even lower, I felt his breath on my back. I trembled as he yelled at my face. I would of been more scared if I saw him.  "You should stop loving me, because I don`t love you!!"

"Leave Moonpie alone!" Bingo screeched. I felt my friends around me, using themselves as a shield from my dad. "We trust that she is telling the truth! You can stop being a huge jerk!"

Rolly raised her voice. "She helped me in ways you can`t accept! Nor understand! With an attitude like that!"

Keia growled. "If you want to be a jerk, go be so to a mirror! You can look at yourself and realize how idiotic you look! Hurting your own daughter like that!"

Lollie snarled at my dad, I could hear her back legs drag as she step forward. "You should of been grateful that you found her! She is brave enough to stand up to you!!" I could imagine her glaring at Zeph and Ember too as she continued. " She is beautiful, amazing, brave, and the best girl there is out here! You were lucky to have such a amazing daughter, but you lost that opportunity!"

Bingo nudged me gently. "Come on Moonpie, lets go outside." he helped me up and padded towards the way outside. Keia and Rolly brushed passed as they caught up. Lollie waited for me to get up, I didn`t even look back at them, I didn`t want to show my pain to my 'family right now that they caused.

*I wanted to be away from them.*
