Hello!

I wanted to start off with Cecil first. I'ts not like I don't like him, but out of the seven he's my least favorite.

I do like all of STARISH over all however.

I hope you'll enjoy this first one.

And don't forget to vote on who should be next to have their story told.

Pearl was in her room having tea when a knock came at her door.

"Come in." She said.

It was the manager. "Jewels." She spoke.

"What has Saotome got for me this time?" She asked.

Their manager was Saotome's ex-wife. (First thing that came to mind. Don't judge me)

"He has this for you. I have been putting this off for far too long. But you'll have to do something like this eventually." She spoke.

Pearl took the file and opened it to her worst nightmare. "NO!" She shouted.

"Pearl. I know you despise this king of role. But your going to have to face it. And it's-"

"It's a spin off of what my own MOTHER did before she married!" Pearl said.

Her mother was a well known model for being the jewel queen. She was named after a jewel in every thing she did. Her most popular and last show she did lasted almost twelve years.

And it was "The Jewel Kingdom." a show that was around a fairy queen who fell in love with a commoner human. AKA, her own father.

While her father was more the drummer in the family, but he was a college band player at the time. The one job they did was the show's music. Rock music was the theme songs.

Both her parents loved playing drums and that was how they fell in love.

And after all this time, her mother never talked about her family life. It was like Pearl never existed.

"I know your mother doesn't treat you like a daughter. But you should show her you can be." Manager said.

"I need some time." Pearl said.

The spin off was based on the queen's daughter, Princess Jewel. Who was half fairy and half human. And she is forced to marry a prince and has to fight for her kingdom.

It was simple. It was going to be a three year plan. Which would say close to about three seasons.

Or just a short series since the plan was almost ten episodes per season.

Pearl sighed and left her room.

She sat in the main room where everyone would hang out at. Jewels and Starish.

"Where is everyone?"

"Their all working. Or shopping." Said a voice. it was Haruka.

"Hello Haruka." Pearl said.

"What seems to be troubling you?" She asked.

Pearl sighed and sat on the couch.

"This is what's wrong." Pearl handed her the file.

Haruka read through it twice.

"I see. You hate being known as a princess." Haruka knew Pearl's problem.

Pearl hated the word "princess" because that's what she was always called.

"I hate my mother sometimes, but this just can't be happening."

"Sorry Pearl. I wish there was something I could do." Haruka said.

"What's wrong?" It was the true prince of the hour. Cecil.

"Cecil. Do you have any advice for Pearl?" Haruka asked.

"About what?" He asked.

Pearl handed him the file. He went through it smiling. "This is great! I love watching the original. It's an honor to be asked to star in it." He said.

"My mother was the original queen. Why DO you think they'd ask ME of all people." Pearl snapped.

She and Cecil had their little moments.

"What?"

"Look. I know your a real prince and all. But listen to me. I hate being called a princess for my mother's life. She ruined me the moment I was born." She said.

Cecil looked shocked. "You don't look or act like one. But yet, you are only called it BECAUSE of your mother." He said.

Pearl sighed and walked away. "I'm going to practice."

"I'm not saying you are one." Cecil said.

Pearl stopped at the door. "What do you mean?"

"I mean people only think you are what you should be. If you take this role, you could change it to YOUR style." He said.

She turned and faced him.

Haruka walked out and left them to talk.

"Explain this." She asked.

"If the fairy queen fell in love and lived happily ever after, change it so instead you don't marry in the end. Or you could have it like you prefer not to wear dresses and gowns." Cecil used as examples.

Pearl nodded. "So, have everyone see, the REAL me."

"Your mother never played the drums on any other set besides the band?" He asked.

Pearl nodded. "My father's college band was asked to do the music. My mother never sang. Even in the band. She doesn't even know I DO sing." She said.

Cecil smiled. "Then YOU sing. Turn this the way YOU want it to." He said.

Pearl smiled a little. "I could sing rock music. Or any other music I want. I could play the drums in the show. And I could turn down this prince's hand. No princess likes an arranged marriage." She said.

"You got it. If you really hate being a princess so much-"

"A princess doesn't get to live her life the way she wants it. Have you read or seen any fairy tales?" She asked.

Cecil chuckled. "You know you are kind of like a princess." He said.

She glared at him.

"Look. I'm just saying, not every princess is of royalty."

"How so?"

"I mean look at us. All of Starish are called princes." He said.

It was true. And people did call Marina and Aqua the princesses of Melody and Harmony.

"I see your point. So then, what kind of princess am I?" She asked.

Cecil turned away. He twitted his fingers in his lap.

"What are you doing?" She asked.

"I got it." He shouted suddenly. "You are a kind of, I'll do things my way, I'm the leader behind the scenes, I like rocking out to my one beats, I never act like a lady," Which was also true she had been rude to a few reporters and show hosts. "And you don't like being called a princess. You would prefer, like "A ruler, a fighter, a boss, or even a leader." He spoke.

As Cecil kept explaining her personality to her she smiled more and more.

Cecil may be a big flirt to the eye of others, but to everyone else, Haruka included, they saw a well trusted and respected man.

"Thanks Cecil." She said.

"Your welcome, Pearl." He said.

Then something clicked. "Pearl;. That's it. A pearl is white and pure. That's why I went with the name. Not just because my mother was named after one." She said.

"What does that mean?" Cecil asked. Pearl stood up.

"I know my mother went with white pearls. But me, I'm going for all the rest." She said.

"Care to come with?" She asked.

Cecil nodded.

The two of them headed to the set where the show would be filmed.

"Ah! There you are!" Said the director.

"I want to see the wardrobe." Pearl said.

"Oh."

"I want to see it. I would like to see just HOW pearl like all these outfits are." She said.

The director lead her to where her mothers close friend was at. The one person who did every dress her mother ever wore in her life.

"Hello Pearl." She spoke.

"Do we have all the white dresses from the old show?" Pearl asked.

"A few of them yes. Some had been done too many times and your mother took two as a reminder of her last show." The director said.

Pearl smiled. "Good. Let's do some, remodeling." She said.

"How so?"

"By using the rest of the colors. There are Black pearls." She said.

"We had a few black dresses on the side for our villain for this spin off." The director told her.

"Good! Then have the old dressed painted."

"Pearl. I've heard of Pink pearls, but-"

"There are pink, purple, blue, green and Champagne colored pearls in the world that exist. Use the rest of the old dresses and add color to the show. Bringing the new era to light." As Pearl explained everything she and Cecil talked about, with him backing her up with a few things from his kingdom, the director rewrote half of the script with inspiration.

"Thank you Cecil." She said.

He held out a hand to her. "Anything for a princess in need of help." He teased. He kissed her hand like any prince would.

Pearl let it got this once.

But she would get him back one day.

He has his charms to him. With or without being a prince.

The End.
