Skylar's P.O.V.
After we had finished eating all the gnatchos, Marcy led all of us to the grand Newtopian castle to meet with the king. We walk down one of my many hallways of the castle and admire how impressive it all looks.
"Dang girl! This is where you've been hanging out this whole time?" Anne praises.
"I wouldn't say I 'hang out' here, but, yes! Staying at the castle has been awesome!"
"Wow, Icant believe we're here" Sprig smiles.
"And that we're about to meet the king of Amphibia!" Polly adds on.
'Wow! Just look at this place! Am I dressed ok? Should I have worn my silk ascot? I'll got back and get it!" Hop Pop panics, running off to the door.
I grab him to stop him before he leaves. "Relax Hop Pop, you're dressed fine" I reassure him.
"Sky's right, don't stress guys it's no big deal" Marcy claims before being interrupted by the hallway doors slamming open.
"Okay frog family, you're about to meet king Andrias. This is a big deal!" Lady Olivia said, completely contradicting what Marcy had said and causing our worry to rise.
Lady Olivia escorted us the rest of the way to the throne room as we continued to look around.
"Wow..." we all said as we looked around in wonder.
"May I present to you, king Andrias Leviathan, lord of Amphibia, peacekeeper of 1000 years and the first of his name" Lady Olivia introduced, bowing down.
Hop Pop, Polly, Sprig and I shared gasped simultaneously at the sight and sheer size of the king.
"Now that's king sized" Anne even commented.
The king was ginormous, towering over all of us even when seated. He glared down at us and exerted a sense of power and authority, showing no emotion in his gaze.
"Hello Plantar family!" He said in a cheerful manor, making me take back everything I previously thought. "Ha ha ha ha ha! Oh bring it in you guys, bring it in!" He smiled, standing up with his arms stretched out.
"Quick kids, bow" Hop Pop whispered to Sprig and Polly before swiftly being scooped up by the king.
"It's so good to finally meet you!" He said before putting the Plantars down.
"I love this guy!" Polly cheers.
"Ha ha ha ha ha!" The king cheered at Polly's enthusiasm.
"Dear king Andrias. Just once it would be nice if you followed proper castle etiquette" Lady Olivia comments.
"Oh etiquette shmetiquette" the king mocks with a smile. "Oh and what do we have here?" He asks, turning to Marcy, Anne and I.
Hey..." Anne and I nervously wave.
"You must be Anne and Skylar, sup? Am I saying it right? S-u-p?" He asks, turning to Marcy in question.
"You got it!" She confirms with a thumbs up.
"Ho hoo, the thumb of approval! And hers a thumb for you two girls!" Andrias says, moving his thumbs up in our direction, providing enough force that it blows our hair back.
"Oh uh... right back at ya!" Anne responds with a fist bump of her own.
The king breaks out into a fit of laughter at Anne's fist bump. "Delightful!" He cheers, standing up on his tail before crashing down again, the force of which causing Anne and I to fall back. Marcy helped us stand back up and we stood with our arms over each other's shoulders as the king spoke again. "Now lets get back to business shall we? Getting you girls back home safe and sound. Hmm... alas without the music box I'm afraid there's nothing I can do, Marcy doesn't have it and well I assume you two don't have it either"
