... the Moon Starts to Shine

It is not a typical day. It is definitely not a day a typical person would have. Only a politician like Megan would have such a day. Being suspected in corruption and receiving many threatening letters from the people of the planet is definitely not a normal member of the community would experience. But the girl comforts herself with the fact that not many people realised how difficult the task of partaking in the planet's ruling actually was.

She sits on the beach, wearing an everyday clothing of comfortable relaxed trousers, being coloured to match the white of a water's foam. The top the woman wears, however, is light blue in colour and it rests on the girl's upper half of the body with ease. She wears some jewelries, but not as much as she wears at any celebration, that is for sure.

She looks at the sea which was raging. Waves are splashing against the sandy beach and the girl is sure there are people swimming in there, but it's the night. She couldn't exactly tell if there are some daredevils who dare to swim in the night sea with strong with and waves which could kill in seconds.

She smiles. It's mostly a nice night. Even though the day had not been.

Megan looks at the sand and takes a bit of it into her hand. It's nice and soft, but she knows it consists of little tiny pieces of rocks. The girl can't tell if the sand is white or yellow or any other colour, but she truly knows it must be something beautiful.

Something beautiful, just as the night.

Varus had been walking on the beach of Anaxes alone for about an hour, bare footed and wearing only a pair of black pants than ran from his waist to midway down his calf that he'd rolled up in order to keep them from getting wet. He'd been there for a few days, having been the company of one of the Ambassadors from Ossus he was assigned to accompany as Jedi Guard. A mission that he took willingly as he realized just how much he'd wanted to see more of the galaxy after Kian had plucked him from Coruscant and exposed to him a knew life. The life of a Jedi.

The talks had been long, growing longer as every second had passed in conference halls and rooms for the past few days, but he'd done his job and followed through with what was expected of him. He wasn't with the young man he'd been assigned to protect now, but he was confident that the other three that had accompanied him on the journey from the Temple were more than capable of protecting him when he wasn't around, as rare as that was. Still, he didn't feel right leaving the young politician to his slumber in the resort they'd been put up in for the week, but as the night came to Anaxes and the beaches grew empty, he cared less and less. He needed his time alone to reflect and to settle his wayward mind, realizing that meditation wasn't always going to sooth his strained mind.

As he walked down the beach, hand in his pockets as the wind blew at his back and the foam from the sea rolled up over his feet, he smiled down at the sand beneath him, truly feeling better just having been able to get some time to himself, though he wouldn't have minded someone to talk to, as long as it wasn't about politics or war. He'd had seen enough of war for now, though he knew he was training to become a warrior of light. As long as he could, he was going to avoid it, and on the day that he was asked to dispatch those warriors of darkness, he'd follow through with what was requested of him because he new that by then, he'd be ready.

It had been a long road, and he was well aware that a much longer one laid out before him, but as he walked along and his eyes focused in on a young woman sitting in the sand in front of his path, he decided that to dwell on the past or dread the future was the wrong way to live. He was going to live moment to moment. Minute to minute. Starting with that one right then and there.

"Hello.", Varus said with a smirk as he stopped walking just a few feet in front of a pretty young woman who seemed to have been star gazing.

Megàn was not scared with the sudden voice greeting her at that night. It was too relaxing to sit there to be jumpy. Slowly, she turned her head towards the figure who had approached and greeted her a moment ago. "Hi!" she said, her voice not as conservative as it typically was. She was feeling a bit lazy that night. It was a night to take a break.

"Megàn. You?" she said quickly without using too many words. She hoped the lack of vocabulary used would work out, too. If not, she would be a bit surprised. Whether the man understood what she was wanting to say or not, she didn't care. It wasn't a problem for her to talk a bit more because that's what her job was -- to talk in the parliament of Tholatin.

She patted the sand next to her as a sign that she allowed the man to sit next to her. It was good to have somebody with her. Somebody to share the beauty of such a situation.
