???:Coral. Coral- There you are Coral, I'd nearly given up on you

Coral:Who are you?

???:A friend, or at least I'd like to be

Coral:What's your name then "friend"

Cleo:I'm the copy goddess, but people just call me Cleo.

Coral:Well what are you doing here?

Cleo:I've come to show you something

Light

Coral:This castle, it feels, familiar. Wha-

She walks around and sees a kid

Cleo:Do you recognize that child?

Young Coral:Wind please

Aqua:Sorry dear, I'm in a hurry

Coral:But if that's mom, the kid is-

Cleo:You, yes. It is

Young Coral:Are you going to see the Earths? Can I come?

Aqua:No, it'll be a boring meeting. Now I need to rush off for a bit. Mama and River will be home soon, ok?

Young coral:Ok. Wait!  Mom, can you wind?

Aqua:Of course, Cory, there now I must be off.

Young coral:Thank you mom.

Young coral:Guess by now, I'd oughta know my place. Do your humble duty, with a smile on your face. Mom knows how much I love her, but sometimes she's busy doing other things. So I'll keep waiting in the wings.

Coral:I crave so much, and yet I kept on waiting. One glance, one touch, and I just kept on waiting

Both:And when it came, it came with strings

Coral:So I kept waiting in the wings.

Cleo:So sad. That's all I had to show you, but I'd like you to keep this in mind

Later

River:There you are, Cory

Coral:Yeah.

River:Sleepy?

Coral:You could say that.

River:Well, sleep tight, Cory

Coral:Good night, Riv
