Chapter 9

The Hatching

When I opened my eyes bright sun was shining through my window and I was tucked in... I must have fallen asleep. I sat up and glanced at the eggs. There was a crack in both. I jumped up and ran over to them sitting in front of the couch. The first one to pop open was the Gold one. A gold exceed popped out and looked at me. I smiled at her and she kept on studying me. I turned to look at the pink egg right as it started to hatch. A pink exceed with leopard print came out and smiled shyly at me. I smiled back. Their so cute!

"Well, are you going to name us or keep looking at us like a open mouthed idiot?" The gold one said. That got me to look at her again.

"Uhh, yeah... I'm going to name you Celeste, and you are Zeeka." Celeste looked at me with a smug look. I feel like she liked the name, and Zeeka was jumping for joy. They remind me of Frosch and Lector. I smiled at the thought of the two exceeds.

"Zeeka likes her name!" Zeeka exclaimed. I smiled at her.

"Good. It's especially for you." I said. Only seconds later my mom comes in my room. She looked like she was about to scold me for last night but then saw the two exceeds and changed her mind.

"They're so cute! What did you name them?" She asked very excited.

"This one," I said pointing at Celeste, "is Celeste and she is Zeeka." My mom squealed.

"That's so adorable!" I laughed at her silliness. Out of nowhere her face became serious. "Excuse us ladies. Me and Lucy need to have a little talk." The exceeds bowed and walked out leaving me at my mother's mercy. I sighed and sat down waiting for what was about to happen. "Lucy. About last night, I want you to spend an entire day with Shane. Learn manners before then. He is going to prove to you that he is not Zeref."

"But mommmm! I don't feel comfortable around him!" She glared at me.

"You have two days to prepare for this day. Nothing will get you out of it, not even sickness we have the greatest healers around you know." I groaned and she walked out, letting Celeste and Zeeka back in.
