"Alright Girls," Marluxia chimes, " We got this in the bag!"
The room is almost fully decorated, with a giant tree in the center of it, and lights surrounding the room. The mentors are watching in the back of the room while the girls decorate. ....Except Marluxia. He was prancing around the sacred hollow with candles in this hands.
"Marluxia, put those down! " Sardonyx shouts after putting an ornament on the tree. She holds her head in both her hands at the many thoughts now flowing through it. She then crumples to the ground in agony.
Marluxia finally stops, and looks to his matesprit guiltily. Pearl picks up her sister and casts slow.
"Marluxia, you must be careful..." Zexion chides from the back of the room. "Her mind is extremely fragile."
"Oh Zexy," Luxord coos from the back of the room (drunken). "You know we'll never be able to fix her *hic* so why try?"
"Don't test me you twit." Zexion spits. He sighs and looks to the other pupils in the room. "We're here to celebrate a human holiday, and thus we shall do it better than them. Pearl, drop your sister."
"But-" Pearl starts, but is interrupted.
"I said drop her." Zexion stares straight faced at her. "I'm doing this for her improvement, not out of spite."
Pearl considers it for a moment, and lets go of Sardonyx. While the Corrupted one falls, Emerald had just put the star atop the tree and glides down.
"Seems we're done here girls," Zexion says. "Onto the next room."
Zexion then walks out of the Sacred Hollow, and the rest follow. Pearl and Amethyst swiftly follow their mentors out the door . Even when Lex leaves, Emerald slows herself to gaze at her fallen ally.
Guiltily, Emerald casts a bubble around Sardonyx and tugs her along.
