    "Hi, guys." a voice said as it's owner approached.

      "Um. Hi, Coral." Shimmer said nervously.

       "I heard you guys talking about Finios." Coral said. "How'd you find out about it's history?"

          "Shimmer found it in a book." Twinkle replied.

           "I see." Coral said.

            "Are you the princess of Finios?" Shimmer asked curiously.

             Coral sighed. "Yes."

             "Why didn't you tell us?" Shimmer asked.

              "We're princesses to, ya know?" Twinkle added.

                "I didn't tell you guys because my family and my kingdom are still really upset about losing my dad." Coral replied. "I'm sorry. I should've told you all about Finios sooner."

                "It's ok, Coral." Twinkle said.

                     "It is? How?" Coral asked in disbelief.

                       "Cause we lost our dad also." Shimmer admitted.

                          "Oh." Coral said. "I didn't know."

                         "It's alright." Shimmer replied.

                            Coral sighed. "Good." She then gave Shimmer a hug.

                              "Thanks, Coral." Shimmer said. "I needed this."

                                 "That's what friends are for." Coral replied as she let go.

                                    "Well, I'm gonna go and continue to show Crystal around." Twinkle said as she headed for the library door.

                                "Alright." Shimmer said. "See you at home."

                                  "Can we walk around together, Shimmer?" Coral asked nervously.

                                       "Absolutely." Shimmer replied as she and Coral left the library.
