CLEO'S POV
It's been one week since Eva's comet flew by and I was trying to enjoy it but somehow I felt like something was missing. Had we not saved our home? I rolled over in bed and turn on my lamp. The clock read 9:04. I picked up my phone and texted Rikki.
Hey Rikki, want to meet at Mako?
-Cleo
I got out of bed and went to the washroom to brush my teeth and hair. Shortly after, I got a reply.
Sure! OMW!
-Rikki
I went to my closet and sorted through some things 'til I found a pretty little sky blue sundress. I added some sandals, and headed towards the beach.
"Hey Cleo!" I heard a female voice behind me. I turned around and saw Bella. She came running up behind me on the sidewalk waving her hands.
"Bella! How are things between you and Will?" I asked. We walked slowly along the sidewalk.
"Pretty good…" Bella said. Her gaze lowered towards her feet. "Oh who am I kidding, we haven't been on a date for a month!" She looked at me sadly. "I've called him over and over and he won't answer! Did I do something wrong?" I gently put my arm around her.
"Bella, I'll say right now that I'm not one for giving advice, but this I know for sure: You did nothing wrong. Wanna hit Mako with me and Rikki? It might take your mind off some things." I tried to pull her attention away from Will.
"Yeah, okay. Sounds like fun!" She smiled.
RIKKI'S POV
Cleo should be here by now. I wonder what's keeping her. I sat in the moon pool leaning on the edge of the rock, looking at the jagged shards of stone where Ryan and Sophie blew up the wall. My chest felt heavy as the sadness sunk in. The cave would never be the same and it was all their fault. Those little selfish brats were just in it for the money. I sure am glad Zane fired her from the café. Just then I heard a splash behind me. I turned around just in time to see Cleo poke her head out of the water. Following her came Bella.
"I see you've invited Bella too!" I said. "It's been a week since we were last in here…" I looked around at the familiar moon rocks that formed our little cave. That heavy feeling started to come back. I wasn't sure if it would go away this time. Our home was ruined, and there wasn't anything we could do about it.
"Yeah, last time we were in here we saved the world." Bella let a small smile slip onto her face. We all smiled too. I looked down at the blue stone necklace around my neck. It had caused so much trouble, and yet saved Mako all at the same time. I held it up to the light and felt that same awe that Sophie and Ryan must have felt when they got the impulse to steal them all. Bella and Cleo did the same. Then all of a sudden everything started to shake.
"Is this an earthquake?!" Cleo yelled over the noise. We scrambled to hold on to something as pieces of rock crumbled from the walls. Then our necklaces yanked themselves out of our hands and stuck to the ceiling. A blinding blue light swallowed up everything in sight. I shut my eyes tight and held on to Bella and Cleo. As quickly as it had come, the shaking stopped. I opened my eyes slowly.
"Guys, look!" We all stared at where the shattered wall had been not even a minute ago. What replaced it was magnificent. I dared to think, impossible. It wasn't impossible though. This was very much real.
"Holy mother of God." Bella whispered.
I hope you guys liked the first chapter. And I hope previous readers didn't find the edits too drastic. Comment on ideas for the second one. Remember, criticize all you want as long as it's helpful and not straight up mean. Thank you so much for reading!
