Emily tightly grasped Mr. Moon's hand, feeling as light as a feather, almost ready to float away with the wind. She closed her eyes and sensed the air around her gradually changing. The warm and familiar scent of Earth began to fade slowly, replaced by a cool, mysterious sensation, as if she were entering another world.
"You can open your eyes now, Emily," Mr. Moon's voice came gently, laced with a hint of lighthearted laughter.
Emily cautiously opened her eyes, and the sight before her made her gasp in awe: "Wow!"
She found herself standing on a silver light bridge, with the vast starry sky beneath her feet. In the distance, Earth appeared like a gigantic blue glass orb, suspended in the silent universe. Countless stars twinkled around her, so close that it felt as if she could reach out and touch them. Emily experienced an unprecedented sense of wonder; all her confusion and doubts were washed away in that moment.
"Watch your step," Mr. Moon gently reminded her. "The bridge is sturdy, but it might feel a bit strange at first."
Emily nodded and tentatively took a step forward. Beneath her feet felt like walking on soft cotton candy—both springy and solid, as if each step could effortlessly transcend the constraints of space. "This is amazing!" she exclaimed. "Are we really in space?"
"Yes," Mr. Moon replied with a smile, "but this path is unique; only those who are invited can see it."
Just then, a shooting star streaked past them, emitting a clear ringing sound that was both melodious and mysterious. Emily couldn't help but reach out to touch it, only to find the meteor swirling around her fingers, leaving behind a trail of silver sparkles as if it were greeting her.
"They love to interact with people," Mr. Moon chuckled. "Shooting stars are quite playful."
As they continued onward, Emily beheld even more wondrous sights: dancing nebulae slowly rotating in the air, trailing colorful ribbons of light; light sprites weaving rainbows, shimmering brightly as they flitted through the starry expanse; and little angels riding comets, glowing faintly and joyfully chasing their dreams.
"Mr. Moon," Emily suddenly asked, "why me? Why did you choose me?"
Hearing this question, Mr. Moon paused, his gaze becoming gentle and profound. He looked at her quietly and replied softly, "Because your wish is the purest. Your longing for your grandmother is the most sincere emotion in the world."
Emily looked down at the pendant hanging from her neck, the only keepsake left to her by her grandmother. She gently caressed it, a smile from her grandmother flashing in her mind. "I really miss her, Mr. Moon."
"I know," Mr. Moon's voice softened. "I can feel your emotions, Emily. Look, we're almost there; lift your head."
Emily raised her gaze, and the sight before her was almost unbelievable. The moon was slowly growing larger, drawing nearer, transforming from a distant silver disc into a mysterious world. The surface of the moon was adorned with shimmering buildings, resembling a city crafted from crystal and starlight. Her heart raced as she realized she was finally approaching the place she had always dreamed of.
"Is that... the Moon Palace?" she whispered in awe.
"Yes," a hint of pride glimmered in Mr. Moon's eyes. "That is my home, and tonight it is your destination."
As they drew closer to the moon, Emily noticed that the palace's grand entrance was woven from flowing moonlight, with two glowing rabbits standing guard at the door. Upon seeing Mr. Moon, they immediately stood upright, their eyes sparkling with excitement.
"Welcome home, Mr. Moon!" the rabbits chimed in unison, then curiously eyed Emily as if guessing her identity. "Is this the guest for tonight?"
"Yes, this is Emily," Mr. Moon smiled as he introduced them. "Emily, these are Pipi and Lulu, my guards."
"Hello!" Emily waved shyly at the rabbits. "You’re so cute."
Pipi jumped up excitedly and exclaimed, "Oh, she thinks we're cute! I like her!"
"I like her too!" Lulu echoed joyfully, bouncing with enthusiasm. "Can we take her to see the Moon Garden?"
Mr. Moon chuckled and nodded. "Of course you can, but let's go inside first. Emily, are you ready? The Moon Palace might surprise you."
Emily took a deep breath, nodding her head, her heart filled with excitement and anticipation. She knew that this would be an unforgettable experience. The grand door slowly opened, revealing a breathtaking sight before her.
Inside the palace hall, the crystal-like walls shimmered with silver light. Glowing clouds floated from the ceiling, gently drifting and emitting soft music, while the stars sang together in hushed tones. A strange fragrance filled the air, bringing her an inexplicable sense of comfort.
"Welcome to the Moon Palace," Mr. Moon said with a smile. "I believe your marvelous adventure has just begun."
Standing at the entrance of the palace, Emily felt a surge of joy and exhilaration. She sensed that she was getting closer to her grandmother with each step she took, inching nearer to her heart's desire.
She tightly grasped Mr. Moon's hand, feeling a long-lost sense of security.
