Chapter 40

Sky-

I woke up and Mara was dead.

I woke up and a lot was happening. Alice was mourning over Mara's body and Jasper and Simon were helping me up, I don't remember fainting. I remember hobbling over to Mara's body and crying like the child I am. I remember the pearl. When I fell through that hole in the cave, I found a pearl in the water. It seemed to speak to me. Maybe it knew Alice would save me. Maybe it knew mara would die.....I did not think that it would know were July was. But it did. Let me explain what happened after we slowly let Mara drift sadly out to her sea grave....

"What is it? " Alice sat down next to me, using her blue sweater to wipe away my lingering tears.

"I don't know... " I rubbed the glimmering pearl with my hand and marveled at how entrancing and majestic it looked.

"Maybe it's a crystal ball?" Jasper said softly, his dark eyes staring down at the thing.

Alice looked up at him in shock "A crystal ball! Jasper, your crazy"

"Well, looks aren't everything," jasper teased, nudging Alice's shoulder play fully.

"I think Jasper may be right...Here, Sky..let me look," Simon gently took the pearl from my fingers and looked at it closely. I didn't know pearls were animal. They aren't, but this one was...because Simon spoke to it "Come on pearl....show us what you came here to say"

I was surprised at what happened yet. And excited that we finally knew how to find July. Simon held the ball up so we could all see it and looked on in awe as a small image formed on the pearls shiny surface. July was nearing the City of diamonds with.....My brother! wait...this one looks a little different. Do I have two brothers? I had no more time to think before Alice pocketed the pearl, grabbed all of us in one strong lift, and sped up and off the Island. It was only a mere matter of minutes, due to Alice's amazing wing speed and power, until we landed back in the forest. We were going back to The City Of Diamonds to get July. Only I hope it's not a horrible sight. I hope there are survivors. I hope Zayne didn't die just like my father did.
