Strawberry Moon 🌙

Chapter Três/ Three

As Sapphire swam inside of the castle she sees ton of people just there happily chatting waiting for the coronation to start. She can't believe there all here for her. Some wave and smile at her congratulating her on getting the comb and she replies she didn't get it. They all have a quick laugh and she moves on. "Soo, Sapphire how do you feel about all these people? I mean all eyes would be on you when obtaining the comb." Sapphire smiles smugly and just shrugs. "I don't know Pearl, I didn't really think about it. Like I know they would be looking at me but, I just didn't really think about what would happen next." Sapphire dropped her smile and sighed. "Maybe I lied about being ready. What if they don't like me as the next leader of the pods council in 120 years?" If Pearl were had a actual form she'll be rolling her eyes. "Girl please, I didn't mean to worry you but you should know that you have this opportunity for a reason. They wouldn't have want you as there leader unless they wanted too, and they picked you because you earned it." Sapphire shakes her head and smiles. "Thanks Pearl." Sapphire says quietly, not knowing Pearl was proud of herself for helping her friend. 4 more minutes pass and then a loud boom sound erupted. Everyone turned to look at each other confused what that was. Then out of nowhere the person who suppose to give her the comb, Alon is looking around crazily looking for someone. Then spots Sapphire and swims right for her."Sapphire-" He says in short breathes clearly having trouble breathing. He takes a deep breath, then finally talks. "Sapphire we cannot have your coronation." Sapphire stared in shock. "W-What? Why??" Sapphire was confused and very ruffled. "Because there's been a incident including the chosen ones and Delara." Sapphire squints her eyes in frustration. "Great Delara, Eirene's sister. The wannabe, and those annoying humans I'm suppose to help and protect." Sapphire rolls her eyes and puts her hands on her head to think. "So what exactly happened?" Sapphire says interested and wants to know how it is stopping her coronation. "Well, I'm not really sure about this part but, I and the rest of the council thinks that Eirene sent Delara to "finish the job".  Alon says the last part in air quotes. 

"Oh really?" Sapphire says smirking. "Well we all know that this can't happened." Alon shakes his head frantically. "The chosen ones are involved since you know the strawberry moon is happening for them and Eirene wants to stop them from mutating. Since you may know that if certain humans change during the strawberry moon something drastic happens, other then there transformation. This is going to be one the most powerful changes that is going to happen, and they would do anything from stopping it. You know why."  Alon says glaring at Sapphire. "Of course those idiots get to be the most powerful and I'm stuck helping them." Sapphire sighs. "But you remember I'm not allowed to have the comb put on me until a coronation is done right? That's been the rules for thousands of years." Alon nods then opens up a very closed fist. He opens his hand and there is two seashell necklaces. "The seashells necklaces for the other two girls."  Sapphire purses her lips and groans. "Fine, it's not like I have a choice anyways if I want to still be proven to be able to handle the comb." Sapphire then uses her powers to teleport her necklace in her hand. It's similar to the girls but a bit bigger and isn't that bland color but a purple gradient. Sapphire puts on her necklace, then puts out her hand facing a bunch of seaweed growing in the corner of the entrance. She feels the shell's energy rush through her and then purple coral starts to slowly grow little by little with sharp edges. "I haven't used this baby in awhile." Says Sapphire grinning. Alon just rigidly grasped Sapphire's hand. "Meet me by the whirl pool later on." Alon then swims away fast and Sapphire looks back to see if any guest was here. Everybody left, probably scared of that loud boom sound. Sapphire mutters something not even Pearl is able to hear and leaves going to meet Alon at the whirl pool. This is just going to be interesting.

Me and the girls end up finishing any work that was due and that's what we did most of the day, we even got the work that was suppose to be due in another month. After we finish that my mom then comes in a very professional suit and she's zipping up her purse. "I'm going with the parents of the students in the school to check out what happened and were going to talk to the principal and teachers. The authorities might be there, hopefully they would let us through. But um I'm going to drop off Natalie at grandma Adalia's house. So you girls can spend some time together after finishing your guys works. We would probably be there for a while so I left 70 dollars on the table so you guys can buy dinner." We all nod and take a moment to take in all the information. She smiles and hugs all of us, then gives me a kiss on my cheek. She then points a finger at all of us. "Make sure not to buy to much junk food." We all agree with her and say goodbye. She waves and leaves, and we all look at each other than burst out laughing for some reason. I looks at the time and sees it's 12:34. "So we can eat lunch in another hour, if you want and now play some games?" I say as I  gets up and puts my stuff away. Later on we end up playing roblox and then eating lunch. I check the time once again and see it's 1:45 now. Wow we have a lot of the day to fill. We ended up going outside to the park to take a walk. (Most of the time the spotlight is going to be placed on Sapphire situation since it is the most important right now, but I would do little parts for the girls. So this is basically Sapphires POV. So don't be surprised if we get more of her. Bye for now!)
