She turned Mira toward her. "Mira. Look at me. You are strong. You took down a dragon all by yourself. And you do have friends. You have me, your big sister, and you have the other Huntresses. You are special. And NEVER let ANYONE, especially a grown man who goes around barefoot and wearing a diaper, tell you any different." She hugged Mira and rocked a little for comfort.

Mira sniffed. "You...you sure?" She wasn't very quick to believe her big sister Luna, and Cupid had been right... And he forced her to give in... He had snapped part of her that could never truly be the same again.

"I'm sure.....besides, how can you take a grown man in a diaper seriously?" She chuckled at the thought, trying to lighten up the mood.

"He wasn't in a diaper." Mira pointed out. "He was in a weird sort of T-shirt and jeans and he had white wings and red eyes and looked like your typical Devil Angel of Love, modern style.

"Have you not seen modern day valentine cards? Cupid is supposed to be a baby, I think he's cuter that way. It makes it funny and helps us not take him seriously." She smiled.

"True." Mira shrugged, enjoying the older sister's comfort, the feeling that she had never felt directed towards herself... Love. Her childhood hadn't been the easiest, especially since her mother was a goddess.

She put her arm around Mira, "You wanna sleep in my tent tonight?"

"Yes please." Mira felt with every instinct that this was how her childhood should have been... And Luna was her mother figure she never had. Smiling like a the child she was, she followed Luna inside her tent.

Luna got ready for bed and got in her sleeping bag. She closed her eyes, but couldn't fall asleep. Her thoughts kept falling to Cupid's words "Mira was different. She had to be confronted, close up and personal. Some arrows find their way to the heart." What was so different about Mira? She looked over at Mira. She couldn't tell if she was sleeping or not, so she decided to wait until she was 100% sure Mira was asleep to put her personal mission into action.

Mira couldn't fall right asleep. Luna wasn't moving in her sleeping bag, but Mira had learned that that was no judge. Mira didn't that it was possible, but she soon found her way into Dreamland. She had gotten into the habit of sleeping with her eyes open, but for once she was in complete peace - her eyes were closed. The only thing weird about her dreams was that she didn't realyl have any... just the vision of red eyes in otherwise solid darkness.

Luna sat up silently and saw that, based on her breathing and lack of sudden movement, Mira was finally asleep. She silently changed into simple outdoor clothes, put on her shoes, and grabbed her bow and quiver before silently slipped outside the tent and zipping it back up. She went quite a ways from camp and pulled out a valentine's day card. She pricked her finger with one of her arrows and let it drip onto the arrow. She stabbed the card onto the arrow and notched it in her bow. Luna shot the arrow and card into the sky and muttered a worship prayer. "Cupid, great and powerful archer of love and hatred, bringer of happiness and love, son of the fair Aphrodite, please honor me with your presence." She loathed this prayer, as did all huntresses, but she didn't know of any other way to contact Cupid.

There was a rushing of winds and feet, and Cupid flew down from the heavens, folding his great wings and doing a graceful, mocking bow to the Huntress. "I see that I have been called." He said, smirking. "Are you giving up your vows? I do hope so. Or maybe giving up one of your Huntresses."

Luna growled and aimed her bow at Cupid. "No. Don't give me that snarky attitude. Tell me what I want to know. Or I'll tell Artemis that you threatened the well being of one of my crew, which you did. How is Mira different? Where did you meet her before?"
