I was playing in the garden on a Sunday evening and I noticed that the moon kept following me. It stopped moving whenever I stopped and continued following me when I start moving. I got fed up and looked up to the sky.

"Mr Moon why do you stalk me?"
If my eyes weren't deceiving me, I'd say the moon looked like it was about to cry.
"Little girl what's your name and how old are you?"
Did the moon just speak to me? What is going on? I stood looking confused at the moon.
"Don't be scared to talk to me child."
"My name is Kosi and I'm 5."
"Kosi, first of all I'm not a Mr. Secondly I'm not stalking you."
"Sorry ma'am But it really seems like you are."
"Take my hand let me show you something."
She said stretching her hand forward. I took her hand and in that moment I fell into a sort of trance. In A split second I found myself in a dark place where nothing can be seen except shapeless objects that floated in the air. I seemed to be floating as well. The Moon was nowhere to be found either.
"Where are my? What have you done to me?"
I screamed.
Then the Moon whispered in my from behind.
"Don't be scared little one. I brought you here to show you why it seems like I'm following you."
"Where are we?"
"This is My Home the celestial space. 400years before your kind was created."
"Your home is really beautiful."
"I wish it was this beautiful now. Presently there is chaos and constant war in my home. Every body battling to possess the greatest number of warrior."
Just then we appeared at a place where celestial bodies were seen fighting and killing each other. It felt so real, but they didn't seem to see us.
"I had two siblings. My brother The Sun And My Sister The Earth. The celestial space is home to all my relations. Comets, stars, planets, my relations were unending."
Next we appeared at the scene of a dying celestial surrounded by her three children.
"After the strange disappearance of the Guardians Of The Galaxy, every celestial body has been craving for power. Killing so many celestial body because the more celestial you kill, the more powerful you become. At my mother's death bed, she gave us powers that made us invincible. To my brother she gave A dazzling light that made it impossible for anyone to come close enough to kill him, accompanied with the power to see everything that happens. To me, She gave the power to disappear and be at multiple places at ones and to bring darkness anywhere i appear. To my sister, she gave her a seed that had the power to raise uncountable number of army, which is you humans."
"When our relatives heard about our powers, they made it their priority to destroy my siblings and I. They connived with some dark powers and penetrated the earth roaming around seeking souls to ruin and steal. In this way reduce my sister's army."
"So this is the reason humans die?"
I asked
"Exactly. When we discovered this we sort a means to help the Earth. Then we decided never to stay far away from each other."
Few years later, a prophecy came out stating.
ONE DAY, WHEN THE SUN SLEEPS AND THE MOON SLUMBERS, THE EVIL CELESTIALS SHALL FULLY POSSESS THE EARTH THROUGH A HUMAN.
"Ever since then, while I sleep the sun rises and why the sun sleeps, I appear. This way keeping eyes on every human. The sun can see everybody by simply staying at a spot, but I have to follow every single person to see and access each human clearly. This makes us prepared to detect early whoever it is the prophecy speaks about."
"Wow! All my life, my parents made be BELIEVE that the Moon followed everyone because you were jealous that everyone was having fun down here and you are stuck up there."
"Now you know why it seems like I stalk you and your kind. I'm just trying to keep the prophecy from coming to past."
"Go now little child and never let your heart be possessed by the Evil Celestials."
In a split seconds I found myself back in the garden. I looked up to the sky and Smiled at the moon and she smiled back at me.
