Once Coral and Frost arrived, Coral knocked on the door.
Moments later, a light yellow lady with green and black hair answered. "What is it, Coral?"
"Hi, Gator." Coral said. She cleared her throat. "My mom is making my brother go to Royal Academy but he really doesn't like idea of sleeping on dry land."
"Hmm." Gator mused as she came out of her room, closing the door behind her. "I've got an idea." She walked further down the hallway.
Coral and Frost looked at each other before following.
"Who is this?" Frost asked in a whisper.
"Ya know Queen Symphony, right?" Coral asked, curiously as Frost nodded. "Well, the lady we're currently following is one of her daughters."
"Oh." Frost said. "So, she's a princess also?"
Coral nodded.
"We're here." Gator announced as she came to a stop, much to Coral and Frost's confusion. "This was gonna be my room, at first but then I got with the father of my kids, who was a human." She chuckled. "Heh, so no one uses this room."
"Why'd you bring us here, though?" Coral asked, nervously.
"Open the door and find out." Gator teased in reply.
Coral raised an eyebrow at her before turning to the door and opening it.
Half of the floor seemed to be made to resemble a dock and the other was gutted, deep and filled with water.
"What's down there?" Frost asked, curiously as he looked down into the water.
"Go and see." Gator suggested in reply.
Frost nodded as he sat down, changed into his merform and slid himself in the water. He then swam down. "It's really dark down here. I can't see anything."
"Use the flashlight on your phone." Coral suggested.
"Ok." Frost said as he took out his phone and shook it, in order to turn on it's flashlight. "Thanks, sis. I can now, see."
"What do you see?" Coral asked, curiously.
"It's like a bedroom, down here." Frost replied. He thought for a moment. "Is there a light up there?"
"Um, I don't know." Coral replied. She turned to Gator. "There a light in here?"
Gator nodded. "Right over here." She walked over, bent down and turned the light on.
"Frost, is that better?" Coral asked, curiously.
"Yeah." Frost replied as he shook his phone, again to turn off it's flashlight. He then put it away before swimming back up. "I don't get it." He rested his arms on the wooden floor and turned to Gator. "Why'd you show us this room?"
"So, you can use it while you're on the surface." Gator admitted in reply.
"Oh. Thanks." Frost said. "Since I'm gonna be staying here, a while I should probably tell you my name, right?"
Gator nodded.
"Well in that case, my name is Frost Ice." Frost said.
"I'm Gator Paw." Gator replied. "Nice to meet you, Frost."
"Likewise." Frost said.
"I'll leave you to get settled." Gator said as she walked to the door. "Just so you know, Coral and the others go to Royal Academy tomorrow. So, be sure to get plenty of sleep, tonight."
"I will." Frost assured. "Is that all?"
"No." Gator replied. "Dinner will be ready, soon. I'll send Coral to get you."
"Alright." Frost said as Gator left the room.
Coral turned to Frost. "You wanna be left alone, for now?"
"Yes." Frost replied.
"See you at dinner, I guess." Coral said as she headed for the door. She stopped and turned around. "Frost."
"Yes." Frost replied as he raised an eyebrow. "What is it?"
"I'm glad we're living together, again." Coral admitted in reply. "I missed you."
"Missed you too, sis." Frost assured.
"I'm gonna go, now." Coral said. "I'll be in my room, if ya need me."
"Thank you." Frost said.
Coral smiled at him before she left the room.
