Chapter 17

The Kingdom looked even more magnificent when I was actually in it.

"Wow"…

Oh good! They could see it!

We were all shocked to silence. It was so beautiful. I looked to my left and saw three mermaids coming towards us. gorgeous.

One had a sparkly, pastel pink tail with a net sash around her waist along with delicate jewelry decorating her face and neck. Her long, blond, wavy hair swirled at her shoulders. Her lips were pink and full. Another had a shiny, bright blue tail with a rope belt that had rocks shaped as crescent moons dangling from it. Her long hair was a frosty blond with a red-purple color underneath. Her eyes were a beautiful icy blue. The third had straight, shoulder-length, rich brown hair with hints of gold. Her tail was a pearly deep red with pearls wrapped around it. Around her neck was collection of pearls and shells. All their faces were flawless with soft edges.

"Hi!" Bright Blue greeted us cheerily. Miss Red was staring the Cullen's legs with fascination.

"You seven are very much ambulatory," she said. I gave her a confused look.

"Ambulatory, able to walk," Sparkles clarified with a kind smile.

"The wood would only break."

"Chief export of Idaho?" Huh?

"Potatoes."

"Ooo, intelligence."

"I try," Bluey said flipping her hair.

"So who are you?" Rosalie asked.

"I'm Katie," Pinky said. Then gesturing to Red, "This is Abby," then to Blue, "And Ashlie. Your turn!"

"I'm Carlisle, this is my wife Esme. And my family Alice, Jasper, Emmett-"

"YO!"

"Emmett…, Rosalie, Edward, and Bella." He finished.

"Emmett, you seem like the loquacious (pronounced luquashus)type," Abby observed. Emmett stared at her with a lost expression.

"I have absolutely no clue what that means… but the answer is probably yes."

"Loquacious, talkative," Katie defined for us.

"YUP! That's me! But could very well be the pixie over here."

"So what brings you to the Olympic Cove Kingdom?" Ashlie asked.

"SHOPPING! You guys have stores here right? Cause that would be my reason for coming. But don't worry, Bella, I'm here to support you too. But I think it would be super awesome if I could shop underwater! Wouldn't it? I'm just so excited to-"
