Don't water it for a couple weeks and let that scab dry out. Unfortunately, the moon cactus won't return as it was a separate cactus that was grafted onto the green stemmed cactus. However, the good news is that green stem is still alive and is a beautiful Hylocereus!
Give it full sun and water only when the soil has been dry for a couple of days and it should produce a branch or two and start growing from there. Hylocereus are known for their gorgeous, showy flowers. We can't be sure which Hylocereus it is however, so it'll be a surprise what the flower will look like exactly.
