Everyone remained silent for an hour or so.No one spoke,no one said a word.It was all silent until Centipede broke the silence.
"What now?"he asked.
Mr.Grasshopper thought for a moment and spoke up,"Maybe we should go our seprate ways and hope for the best to find a better place,"
"But where would we go?"Mrs.Ladybug asked.
"Where ever we like!"Mr.Grasshopper said,"James is gone and I believe with out him there to stick up for us,we're better off somewhere else then here in New York,"
Ms.Spider started to cry again on Centipede's shoulder.He patted her on the back.
"There there angel fangs,"he said.
Luna,who was still blaiming herself for what happened tensed up again.Her eyes grew wide as she listened all around her.Something was calling to her.She listened closely and waited.Someone or something was telling her something.Her eyes grew even wider when the message came clear.
"James is alive...,"she said.
Everyone turned to her.
"What was that Luna?"Mr.Grasshopper asked.
"James isn't dead...,"Luna said.
"HOW?!He fell to his death!He fell into the ocean!"Earthworm yelled.
"He didn't.He's alive.I can feel in my heart,"she said turning to them.
"Luna,he's gone.We all saw him fall to the city below,"Ms.Spider said drying her eyes.
"But he's alive.I sure of it.Something is telling me to go and search for him,"Luna said,"Who will go with me?"
Everyone looked around them at the others.They didn't answer.Luna's jaw dropped.
"I can't believe this,"she said,"You all knew that James wanted you to live happily right?Do you still want to keep that promise?"
"But...he's gone and without him with us...the people of New York will just see us as what we are,"Centipede said,"Bugs.Terrifying,scaring,disgusting bugs,"
"That's not true,"Luna shouted.
She was inturupted by a low rumbling noise.Everyone looked down and saw the storm clouds disappearing and New York reappearing.Everyone smiled,but it quickly faded.Luna on the other hand was still smiling.
"Lets go!We'll find him!"Luna said.
No one moved.
"Luna,James is gone.He's dead!END OF STORY!"Centipede said.
"Then...do you still want to keep James alive?"she said.
"I don't understand what your trying to say my dear,"Mr.Grasshopper said.
"WHAT?!?"Gloworm yelled.
"The dream,"Luna said,"The dream James shared with us.The dream we all had in common,"
Everyone remembered that dream,but nobody wanted to think about it.Not with James gone and everyone having no where to go.
"Come on everyone.James wanted us to have a happy life in New York,right?"Luna asked,"Do you guys still want to keep that dream?"
No one answered again.Luna waited for a reply and since no one answered,she continued.
"Come on.What do you say?"Luna held out her paw,"If you want to go with me to New York to live our new lives,put your hand on top of my paw.If not,then you can go somewhere else,"
Nobody came foreword.Ms.Spider was the first to move her seagulls to Luna.She turned to the others.
"I don't know about you,but I have to agree with you,"she said placing her hand on top of Luna's paw,"I'd rather keep James's dream then go somewhere else,"
Mr.Grasshopper then came over,"Well,the boy did bring us a jolly good far so...I'm in too,"
Earthworm,who was still on Mr.Grasshopper's back placed his tail on Luna's paw,"Well,as long as there's underground tunnels.I'm in as well,"
Mrs.Ladybug then came over.She placed her hand on Luna's paw.
"I want James's memory to live on with us.I'm going too,"
Gloworm didn't know what all was going on,but she came over anyway and placed her hand on Luna's paw.
"I don't know what all you guys are talking about,but I'll go as well,"she said.
Luna looked over at Centipede,who still never came over.He still didn't believe James was alive.James grew like a brother to him and like a son to him as well.He couldn't think of anything to say.He just turned away.
"Centipede?"he turned back to Luna,"Are you in or out?"
He turned away from her.Ms.Spider flew back up to him and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Centipede,"she said.He turned to face her,"James would of wanted you to go with us,"
Centipede and Ms.Spider came back down and he placed a hand on Luna's paw.
"I'll do it,"he said smiling,"For James,"
"For James,"everyone repeated.
Luna let go of some of her seagulls,"Okay.I'm going to go ahead first and when you hear me howl,you all may come down,"
Everyone agreed and with that,Luna let go of her seagulls and everyone watched as she flew down to the city below.
"Good luck Luna,"Mr.Grasshopper whispered.
As Luna flew down to the city below,she started to talk to her ansecsters.
"My dearest ansecsters,"she said,"I know you have watched over me well,but I have favor to ask of you.I need you to look after James.Find where he is and watch over him,"
She then had something to ask for her brothers.
"Fang,Silver,Bullit and Demon my dear brothers,I beg of you.Lead me to him,"she said closing her eyes and hoping her favor was recieved.
She then felt the wind blow her of the course she was on and onto a different one.Down in New York however,James was alive and he was trying to protect the peach from his aunts who managed to find him.When he said he wasn't returning with them,they started to get angry.
"How dare you speak to us this way,"Aunt Spiker said.
She and Sponge grabbed two axes behind them and charged toward James.James climbed to the top of the truck he was standing on to stay out of the way of the axes.Suddenly,there was a loud CRASH!Everyone looked up to the top of the peach and waited.Luna stood up,shaking off the pain she was feeling in her hurt leg from landing real hard on the peach.
"Well,that used to be easy,"she said.
Everyone pointed up to the top of the peach.
"It's a wolf!"some yelled.
"It's a wolf!There!"others yelled.
Luna blinked a few times at the crowd before her.It was the entire city of New York standing there staring at her and the peach.
"Wow,"she gasped,"What a crowd,"
James looked up and smiled when he saw his furry friend standing on the peach,alive and well.
"Luna!"he yelled.
Luna looked down and smiled when she saw her human friend.She jumped down to him.
"James!"she yelled.
James was started laughing and Luna did as well.
"I knew you come for me,"James said.
"Do you think I would just leave you here?"Luna laughed.
James laughed again,"I can't believe it!"
Spiker and Sponge's jaws dropped.They couldn't believe what they were seeing.They reconized the wolf that James was talking to.
"It's a wolf!"Sponge yelled.
"It's that wolf that we caught digging out of the garbage that day,"Spiker said.
"That stupid thing is still alive?"Sponge asked.
Luna was shocked when she saw James's aunts.Her fears returned to her mind,but she ignored them.She had to protect James until she called for everyone.
"James!"Luna yelled,"What are they doing here?"
James became scared again,"I don't know!"
Spiker reached into the pocket of one of the police officers and pulled out his gun.She aimed it at both of them.Before she pulled the trigger,Luna jumped at them and held onto the gun.James gasped.
"Luna!"James said,but he had no time to finish.
Luna turned to him,"Go!NOW!"
James ran alittle further up the car and stopped when he ran out of room.Luna let go of the gun and jumped to where James stood.She waved her tail at them.
"Bet you can't get me,"she teased.
Spiker was shocked,"It talks!"
"Kill it!"Sponge yelled.
Luna jumped to the top of the peach.Spiker aimed the gun at her.Luna turned to them and Spiker pulled the trigger.
"Luna!"James yelled.
The gun went off and smoke went everywhere in Spiker's face.James had his eyes covered.When the smoke cleared,Spiker broke into a smile.James uncovered his eyes and looked up.Luna wasn't on top of the peach.James could feel himself wanting to cry.Luna was shot.everyone in the crowd gasped.
"That's one down,"Sponge said.
"Any other tricks?"Spiker asked looking at James,"Then lets go,"
Suddenly,a howl could be heard.Everyone looked up to the top of the peach.Luna appeared at the top,howling to the moon and stars above.James smiled when he saw his friend alive.She looked down at him after her second howl and winked at him.He didn't get until she looked up again and he heard a familear voice.
"James!"the voice said,"Up here!"
James looked up and saw a bright light.
"Hello!We're here!"another familear voice said.
"Hey buddy!"another familear voice called.
James smiled when he saw who it was.
"What are they?!"Spiker asked getting scared.
"Young James!"Gloworm yelled.
Centipede took off his hat and started waving it,"HEY JIMMY!"
Spiker gasped,"BUGS!It called bugs!
Centipede called to Luna and James,"You need alittle help down there?!"
Sponge gasped and held up her hands.She was scared at how HUGE the bugs were.
"GIANT BUGS!"she screamed.
Centipede noticed them ofcourse,"HEY YOU OLD BIDDIES!!!"
They started to ask people to help them,but everyone was too interested by the giant bugs.
"Woo-hee!Here we are,dear!"Mrs.Ladybug yelled.
"Hello,James!"Earthworm yelled.
"I told you they were real!"James said to the crowd.
"Hello old boy,"Mr.Grasshopper said.
"Requesting clearance to land!"Ms.Spider yelled.
Everyone landed on top of the peach next to Luna letting the seagulls go ofcourse.The aunts were so frighted they could barely speak.
"But..how..?"Spiker started to say.
Luna interupted though,"You see Spiker and Sponge,if you messed with our dear James,then you messed with every single one of us,"
They quickly became more frighted.James then heard a light bulb go off in his head.He turned to Ms.Spider.
"Ms.Spider!"she looked down at him,"Throw me a string!"
She did exactly that.She pulled out some string and threw it to James.He caught it and threw it around his aunts.He looked back up to the group.
"Okay!Pull them up!"he yelled up to them.
They started to pull the aunts off the ground and up to them.Luna jumped down to James.
"Mind if I watch?"she asked.
"Ofcourse you can Luna,"James said.
Once the aunts were up to the bugs,James gave the next command.
"Spin them around!"he yelled.
Mr.Grasshopper,being the closest to the aunts started to kick them with his hind legs.They started to spin and while they were,they were screaming.
"Wrap them tightly!"James yelled.
Ms.Spider threw string at them.While they were spinning,the string got caught around them and started to wrap around them.Their wigs flew off while they were spinning.
"Tighter!Tighter!"James yelled.
Mr.Grasshoppper stopped spinning them around and Ms.Spider was done wrapping them in string.They were completely covered in spider string.
"Well I'll be...,"a police officer said,"The kid was telling the truth,"
James and Luna smiled after hearing this.The police officer turned to the driver of the giant crane that was used to get the peach off the empire state building.
"Get those two creeps out of here!"he yelled.
The driver nodded and started the crane.He drove them away from the peach and out of everyone's sight.Everyone was laughing ofcourse and while they were,James started to climb a ladder that led to the top of the peach,but he stopped halfway and turned to face the crowd of people.
"Everyone!"he yelled to the crowd,"These are my friends!The ones I've been telling you about!Mr.Centipede!Old Green Grasshopper!Earthworm!Mrs.Ladybug!Ms.Spider!And the Gloworm!"
James then stopped when he relized that everyone wasn't named.He looked around.Everyone was here,but wait.Where was Luna?He looked around for Luna and saw her behind the crowd of people walking away from them.She turned around and looked back at the family she loved.
"Thank you my brothers,"she whispered.
She started to walk away again,but she stopped when she heard her names.
"Oh!And lets also thank my friend,Luna,"James said,"Who saved my life our whole trip here,"
Luna turned to him and saw his hand moution for her to come back to him.
"Come on Luna,"he whispered.
She started back to the peach and the whole crowd turned to her and made a pathway for her to walk through.Everyone clapped and cheered for her.She could feel tears form in her eyes.She jumped up to James and sat next to him and stared at all the faces in the crowd.
"Luna,you protected me from so many things on this crazy,but very adventerious trip.You saved me from pirates,the rhino and my aunts,"
Luna smiled,"But James you saved us,"
"I didn't do anything.You made my family come down and save me,"James said.
"But you started a dream that became reality,"Luna said,"Look around you James.We're free from your aunts.We're saved thanks to you,"
James knelt down to her height and wrapped his arms around her.She blinked a few times and placed a paw on his shoulder.He broke the hug and stared at her eye to eye.
"I don't know what that was you gave me,but it felt great,"she said.
"It's called a hug,"James said,"It's what family members and friends do when their happy,"
Luna smiled,"Then I'm your friend?"
"Your more than a friend Luna.Your part of my family,"James said.
A boy approached the two and yelled up to them.
"Can we eat some of your peach?"he asked.
By this time,Centipede came down the ladder.
"It won't keep forever,"he told James.
James looked back at the boy and his friends,"Go ahead,"
Everyone cheered and ran to the peach.They grabbed as much as they could eat and ate it all.Another boy called up to James.
"Hey!What's your name?"he asked.
James looked down at him,"It's James!"
They ate that peach all the way down to the pit and set it up in Central Park as a permanent home.And James Henry Trotter who was the sad and lonliest little boy you could imagine now had a loving new family and all the friends in the world.And since James's visiters begged him again and again to hear the story of his adventure with the giant peach,he wished for a way to share it with everyone.And that is excatly what you have just read.And what became of Luna you may ask.She now found a place she could call home.A family who loved her for who she was.Her life in New York went along smoothly.People accepted her for who she really was.She was always seen walking with James to and from school,going on picnics with the family and playing fetch with James.It seems as if she gave up her life of being a loner wolf and joined in with what she called her family.There were times she was upset that her brothers weren't there to see her now.Full grown and with people who cared about her.She never forgot her adventure on the giant peach,the inhabits and the young boy who made a dream she thought would never come true becom reality.
I hope you all enjoyed Luna and the Giant Peach!
