Marcus, a 27 year old office worker, just finished his last shift of the week. "Ughhhh... today was tiring as fuck...." he mumbled under his breath while walking to his car. Earlier that week, Marcus had did something that he hasn't done in 20+ years. He wished on a shooting star, without know that his wish was about to come true... The next morning, he followed his usual routine. Marcus would get up, make uo his bed, shower, brush his teeth, get dressed, and eat breakfast while watching the news. when he turned on the TV, he saw something that was basically impossible to believe. "Breaking news! An unknown object fell from the sky last night, and crashed down on earth! Nobody was hurt, but the thing that fell is now missing!" the reporter stated. "It was also been comfirmed that one of the constellations from the sky is now missing. In fact, we think that the object that fell is indeed Orion, the missing constellation. We'll have more news later, after these messages." Then, the news went on commercial break. "Yeah right, the stars aren't alive... they're just hot balls of gas and other debris..." he stated while reading the newspaper. But as soon as he said that, an unknown person magially appeared out of thin air. "Yes, we are just heated gas objects, but we can become human." the person said. "You are Marcus Xavier Roma, correct?" "That is me... how do you kow my name...?" Marcus asked, a litter terrified that this stranger knew his full name. "Easy! because you wished upon a shooting star, one that belonged to my constellation!" Marcus thought that the young fellow was deranged and was about to call the police. "I suggest you don't call your local authorities... if you do, I will be forced to call Sagittarius... He is one nasty customer..." the stranger sighed. "Look, I know it's hard to believe, but I am Orion... If you want-" He was rudely interrupted by Marcus. "Of course, I need proof..." "Fine by me!" Orion agreed, then he warped himself and Marcus to his home in the stars. "This is my moble home! Of course, us stars move consantly, so our homes move as well!" Marcus stood in awe, looking at how wonderfully beautiful the stars were up close. Soon, they were greeted by the 13 Zodiacs: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Ophiuchus, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces. "A-Are.... these...-" Marcus stutterted. "Yeah, we're the zodiacs.. WHO THE HELL IS THIS, ORION?!" Aries and the other fire signs yelled. "This is the human who made a wish on Beta Orionis! Marcus Xavier Roma!" Orion calmly stated. "He needed proof that I was an ACTUAL constellation, so, here we are!" He said with a smile. "Ok, ok... Lemme get this straight... This adult human, wished on Beta Orionis....? I thou we only granted wishes to kids...?" Capricorn asked, concerned. "Yep! i'm going to grat Marcus' wish!" Orion replied. "If he wants a lover, then can't he just-" Scorpio was cut off by Taurus. "We don't let humans... Do that to us... King Luna said so...." "And King Solar!" Cancer added. "and King Solar..." Taurus added as well. "who is...?" Marcus asked. King Luna and King Solar is what you mortals call 'the sun and moon'..." Ophiuchus answered. Then, in the midst of explaining... a very powerful presence appared....
Orion, a young constellation, fell out of the night sky after a human wished something nearly impossible. Marcus, the human, just wants someone to love. Will the 2 of them be able to get together despite their differences?
