Posted 20 Mar 2014 "Wait, are you saying.... you're weren't hired to kill me?" asked the older Melody. "No she wasn't," spoke up the younger one. "She was... trying to protect us." The younger Melody suppressed a sob. "Well, uh..." began Skye. "I would use my summoning magic to create a new body, as use genetic samples from melody and my transformation magic to, for want of a better expression, mold this new body as close as I can to her old one. Then we can transfer her soul over... Uh... We might need to use the Master Emerald for some extra power to pull that off." -------------- "Exactly.

"Besides, if some like that goes wrong I'M the one most likely to end up stuck in the emerald," he muttered under his breath. ------------ "Wow, that was good!" exclaimed Miles, with a very slight hint of fear in his voice. ------------ "Then hope I'm better soon," said Ziona.
