Neighbors

The shuttle landed, and it took about an hour for the gears and engines to stabilize. The huge syringe like shuttle had a beautiful logo on its side, it was a bright green, like the green on an old Greek coin, and the shape was a silhouette of a Pegasus with a fiery main that was a dark crimson color. I gazed at it as steam arose from its bottom and a hatch opened up from its side, then the Light Gatherer wove light particles together making a bright blue color, and holding the light together, it made a series of solid objects that resembled stairs. Two adults came out of the shuttle and came up to my parents. "Greetings!" said the young looking man on the left, he had blue-ish  brown eyes, with a beard that looked lightly trimmed and well maintained. "you must be our new neighbors! Mr. and Mrs. Naut?" said the man. My father replied "that's us! I got the message on my monitor that a new family would be joining us on the Moon!". The man smiled and said "I'm Doctor Erik Cardinal, and this is my wife Julia" the woman had brown hair and green eyes that looked tired from the long trip here. My father shook hands with the two people, this was my first time meeting people not from this location, I was a bit shy but at the same time anxious to meet these strangers, then Dr. Cardinal spoke "and this is my daughter Angel" a girl about my height who looked of the age of 12 came out from behind Mrs. Cardinal, I looked at her and my eyes grew wide, my first time seeing a girl my age, she had red hair with a little bit of almond color and a dark crimson at the roots, she had green eyes like her mother, and a some what narrow face, an elegant grace to her gaze, and cute personality...I was in love, Angel, such a delicate name, I couldn't wait to find out more about this mysterious being. My father spoke up not allowing me to think peacefully-"my name is James Glory, and this is my wife Madeline, and this young man is my son, LionEyes" Dr. Cardinal looked at me and put his hand out "hello LionEyes" I stared at his hand not knowing what to do "shake his hand" my father muttered under his breath, I shook his hand and nervously said "hello", and that was the day I will never forget, because that's the day I first saw pure beauty.
