Skye Prower

"Good. I think we'll pass on the alcohol for a while. And maybe magic as well for a bit."

"What do you think?" Melody asked, indicting towards the speaker where the music was playing. "And those are just normal milkshakes, right?"

"Hmm, which one," Melody pondered as she flicked through the CD's. "Melody said she wanted to relax, I think this one looks most relaxing," she said as she put the CD on.

"Cool!" exclaimed Melody as she headed to her room to grab her CD's. On the way back she grabbed her tiara and placed it one her head.

"If we can, yeah. Sounds good. Shall I grab some snacks as well? And some milkshakes? Proper milkshakes this time!"

"You might not like it now, because now we'll need to dig!" said Skye. ---------------- "Relaxing? What's that?" joked Melody. "We could listen to listen to some of the music CD's I got yesterday while we wait for everyone?" ---------------- "Sorry. I've just been feel overly guilty and scared since I can here." ---------------- Ziona swam back to the shore and started drying herself.

"Yeah, that looks like a good spot. So if we dig here... and have a door here, and windows there and there?" --------------------- "Sounds like a good plan," said Melody, sitting down on the edge of the balcony with her legs dangling over the side. "So wotcha want to do in the meantime?" -------------------- Anna cast her eyes down and murmured "I'm sorry." -------------------- "Good! What's say we head back to shore and enjoy the sunset?" suggested Ziona.

"You're making it sound all official! Right, lets see..." --------------- "The first thing I want to do is find some fresh air," said Melody heading towards the balcony. "After that, I dunno? The sun's just starting to set so it must be getting kinda late." -------------- "Thank's Red. Y'know, I didn't realise just how much you were looking out for me until now." -------------- Ziona laughed. "You better not be pushing her too hard!"

"Now then, back to planning our little hut!" said Skye. -------------- "I know Dad, I know," replied Melody sounding upset, and looking at the floor. ------------- "I hope I will," replied Anna ------------- "You get to choose your own scheduled, don't you?" asked Ziona.

Skye gave a small laugh. "Thank you my little angel." ------------- Melody nodded her head. "Of course Dad. I understand." ------------- "I was lucky enough to be given a second chance," said Anna. ------------- "Me?" Ziona was distracted for a moment. "I'm on holiday for the minute. Though I might get a call for some emergency work in a day or two."

"We'll be a lot more careful in the future," assure Melody

"Good. I'd hate to think otherwise," replied Skye. -------------- "Well, uh...," Melody paused. She knew her hesitation meant she'd have to say something. "I... uh... been teaching Hope a little bit of magic. We just went a little to fast." -------------- "Yeah. But it was gonna destroy me in the end." -------------- "Good plan!"

"Okay, but if there is anything you want to talk about just say," said Skye. ------------ "I guess it had a slight side effect," said Anna thoughtfully. ------------ "So you've a few days to relax then!"

"If you're sure. You seemed upset for a moment," replied Skye. -------------- "Oh, yes! Everything's fine," said Melody. -------------- "You're probably right, I would get kicked out," laughed Anna. "Was I this unsettled before I got my speed?" she asked her friend. ------------- "How long do you have before duty calls?" asked Ziona

"I'd forgive you anything," said Skye hugging her. Then he paused. "Did I upset you?" ----------- Melody tried to put her worried thoughts to the back of her head. "Good idea. Let's see what's happening out there." ----------- "It's definitely not normal," laughed Anna. "And you're asking about school as well? I... might like to try it, but I think I'd go mad after a week.... if I was lucky!" -------------- "At least you got it now!" said Ziona.

"We're far too young to worry about things like that," said Skye, trying to change the subjet. ---------------- Melody stayed in the bathroom, trying to catch her breath after what had just happened. If Mom and Dad ever found out.... --------------- "I know. It's such a strange chain of events that led here. And I.... If you'd asked me yesterday if the had be want I wanted, I'd had laughed at you for being stupid. But now I've had a taste of a... normal life..." ---------------- Ziona laughed. "The price of fame! Hardly a moments piece."

"Wha... uh... I was just meaning it would be nice to do this together..." said Skye. ------------ "You're right. Tell him I'm really sorry he got burned!" replied Melody ------------ Anna laughed nervously. "I know. It sounds almost impossible." ------------ "It's good you have somewhere to get away from it all."

"No, we should both take part in the planning. This is our project, after all." ------------------- "Well, I suspect Mina will be back to visit, so you can ask her then," said Melody ------------------- "I've... been adopted Red, but the same family as Melody and Skye. Locke there, he's my Dad now." ------------------- "Great fun!" replied Ziona. "You?"

"I'm sure they'll be thrilled to see you again," said Melody

"Depends what party we went to, but I suspect they'd all be people we don't know. Unless... you seemed to know Mina herself, do you know the rest of her friends? We could join their after-concert party!"

"I think we might need a little more than that," laughed Skye. He held his arm out flat and an image of the valley appeared above it. "So, where do we want it?" -------------- "WHAT? Well, we'll need to do something about that!" said Melody. "Hmm, I think Primy-Glen said Mina was having a concert soon. There's bound to be some parties after that!" ------------- "Thank you, well, you see..." Anna had starting rubbing her hands nervously together again. "Remember how I said I'd see a vision of my future. It's... it was more than that... Melody... you said you thought she was me... we'll... she's actually my.... my daughter..." ------------- Ziona through herself into the waterfight with immense enthusiasm.

Or photoshop a Christmas hat onto the avatar!

"That'll take a bit of planning, but I like that idea," said Skye. ------------ "Heh. Just as well it wasn't your party clothes on the top then!" ----------- "Red... I... Uh.... I want to tell you what happened here... So you understand... but... it is... beyond weird..." said Anna ---------- "If it's a splash fight you want it's a splash fight you get!" said Ziona, creating a wave with her hands against Mina.

"Thank's Shadow," said Melody as she picked up her dry clothes. She looked at Hope. "Do you only have one outfit?" she asked.

"Depends on what kind of hut we want to built. And I could summon up some basic tools," said said. -------------- "We could have said when we went back to Moebius to find what we 'lost' I fell in a swamp and the only clean clothes my size at GUN were Hopes!" said Melody with a laugh. "But my room, uh, second one down thataway," she said pointing. ------------- "She did that again? Heh, she did it when we raced as well! But..." Anna began pondering whether to tell Red the truth about who Melody was. ------------- "The shore's there whenever we want it. Let's enjoy the water for now."
