X-X-X-X Chapter: 4 X-X-X-X
"Earlier today, an attempted murder of Aria storm, sister of the commander of the storm hawks Aerrow Storm, and the rumored girlfriend of Chase Shakefeild, the lead male singer and male guitar of a quickly rising band, Back Yard Junk, was committed.
"She and a few friends were staying with the band as they travel the atmos on their atmosain tour when a Tropicain ornament dagger was thrown at her. The dagger is tipped with an unknown poison. No one knows who threw the dagger yet but the police are investigating as I speak. Thank goodness it missed or else we'd have a lot of angry people.
"In other news… Sky knight Harrier of the Rex Guardians proposed last night to Sky Knight Starling of the Interceptors!..." Saphire squealed loudly clapping her hands as they watched the news.
"I'm getting a sister!" Saphire shouted, jumping up and down.
"Noise!" Aria whined. Saphire giggled sheepishly, suddenly remembering that 'oh yeah, Aria's head hurts'. Apparently Aria hit her head long enough it gave her a slight migraine. Chase smiled from next to Aria. He'd barely let her out of his sight since the incident, expect to get changed and use the bathroom, and of course to let her do the same things.
"Sorry Aria. Hold on. I'm gonna call Harrier and squeal my excitement." Saphire exclaimed and ran into the girls section onto the balcony with her cell phone.
"You know for a doctor she doesn't act like one." Chris exclaimed.
"She's unique. She's my favorite kind of doctor." Emerald exclaimed.
"What kind's that?"
"The fun kind." Topaz exclaimed, laughing.
"You know what I want to do?" Tina asked as she lazily hung upside down, her legs thrown over the back of the sofa, her head watching the TV upside down.
"Get up maybe?" Tia suggested, a teasing note in her voice.
"Uh, no. Swim, silly. Okay so I'll have to get up for that one. There's two pools here. One indoors and then there's the one on the roof next to the large hot tub. Only available to a few select visitors who have to pay extra. But, being in best suite, it comes free to us. It'll be more quiet, better for Aria's headache and maybe be more relaxing to the degree that it helps get rid of it too." Tina exclaimed.
"There's a pool on the roof?" Tia asked.
"Uh yeah. Weren't you listening to the manager when he gave us our keys?" Tina asked as she slowly got up, not even noticing Chris's star from his arm chair.
"Un… not really. Were you?"
"Uh duh!" Tina snapped as Tia shook her head
"I was listening too and I like the idea expect for one little detail you left out." Topaz exclaimed.
"uh yeah like… Some is trying to kill Aria!" Emerald yelled. Aria winced, slightly leaning toward Chase. Chase put his Arm around Aria in attempts to comfort her, tracing circles and swirls on her arm with his thumb.
"Noise level." Chase reminded them. Chris chuckled as he watch. Piper hid a smile behind her hand.
"Well, first off not a lot of people know about the pool so I doubt whoever is out to kill-"
"Marla."
"Okay, Marla, even knows it's there." Tina reasoned. Carla smiled.
"Sounds nice." Aria exclaimed, a smile on her face. Chase started to laugh as Saphire came twirling in, her short flowing black skirt swirling around her legs.
"Saphire, what do you think about swimming?" Topaz asked.
"I love to swim, why?" Saphire asked, perching on the arm of the sofa. Aria pushed her off with a childish laugh.
"Well, there's a pool on the roof and we want to go swimming but we have to ask the doctor and make sure it's okay." Emerald exclaimed, a teasing note in her voice.
"There's no problem in swimming. It might turn your hair green though." Saphire teased. The girls bolted after Saphire to change. ( I guess they were just that bored)
X-X-X-X
"Whoa!!!!!" Aria shouted as she jumped into the water, her silver string bikini glittering as it clung to her curves, her orange tropic shorts tight to her. Saphire rolled her eyes before cart wheeling down the diving board and back flipping off, her cobalt blue bikini shimmering in the light.
"Canon ball!" Emerald cried, jumping into the a canon ball into the pool, her emerald green bathing suit ,a bikini like bathing suit with a thin strip of fabric connecting the top and bottom, covering her belly button, glomming in the afternoon sunlight.
"Show off!" Topaz called, walking down the diving board, in a gold bikini with rings holding it together. She jumping off into a flip, landing in the pool with hardly a ripple.
"Let the FINN show you how it's done." Finn bragged, waling down the diving board like her owned it, not even noticing Tina sneaking up behind him as he walked down the diving board. She shoved him off the end and then somersaulted into the pool, swimming away as fast a possible, her hot pink open back bathing suit standing out against the glories blue tile of the floor. Finn surface sputtering and cursing.
"Finn! That was so graceful!" Emerald laughed, causing Finn to blush as Tia, clad in a purple bikini that should have clashed with her green hair, walked down the diving board, preparing to jump and knock Finn under. She sprung herself forward with the grace of a cat, and slammed into Finn's back with the force of a cheetah, knocking him under the water as she sam away almost like an innocent by stander. Tina opened the store house a Tia pulled herself out of the water and ran into before running back out with a pair of noodles, jumping back into the water as Finn surfaced.
"What the hell, Tia? First you shove me off the board and then you jump me-"
"Jump you? Why the hell would I want to screw you? Yes I tackled you so you'd go under the water but the push, not so much. That was another friend of mine." Tia interrupted, straddling one of the two noodles she had.
"Willl you…. Grrrrrrrrrrr….." Finn turned his back on Tia, pretending to sulk like an immature little kid. Piper climbed the high dive, wearing a bright orange string bikini that set off her dark skin.
"Piper! I bet you can't do a triple back flip dive! "Aria challenaged. Piper smiled and walked down the board until she reached the end where she turned around as Aerrow watched her from the ladder. They watched her jump off backward and do not one, not two, not three, but four back flips before she landed in the pool in a canon ball, splashing everyone within 20 feet of her. Chase followed close behind her with another cannon ball, his swim drunks decorated with two dragons, one of gold and the other in silver. Aria shrieked as Finn dunked her for pushing him into Emerald. Chase dunked him for that just before Junko jumped in.. in a canon ball. Let's just say, the water went everywhere.
"Ew… clorin… It'll bleach your skin and hair different colors." Stork mumbled. Topaz pulled herself out of the pool and walked over to stork before pushing him into the pool.
"Topaz!" Stork yelled when he surfaced. Topaz slipped back in as Aerrow appeared on the top of the high dive, about to do a belly flop. Aerrow lept off as Topaz pushed away from the wall and dove under the water to grab something on the bottom of the floor. Aerrow hit the water with a loud clap.
"Ow… that had to hurt." Chase exclaimed from next to Aria who winced as Aerrow surfaced on his back, almost looking dead. He didn't move.
"Oh come on, Aerrow, that's not even funny!" Aria called just Piper was about to call out his name in panic. Aerrow just laughed just before getting tackled by Chris.
"Carla! Come on. Stop hiding already!" Tia whined, annoyed with her friend.
"No! It looks that bad!" Carla called from the hot tub. She was hiding her bathing suit from everyone.
"Carla, We won't laugh! I promise!" Emerald called. They heard Carla mutter something about never letting someone shop for her again. They watched Carla emerge from the hot tub, revealing a black bikini with pink skulls polka doting it. Emerald smiled, It was very Carla… expect for the pink.
"It looks nice Carla. Relax." Emerald exclaimed. Topaz, Tina, and Tia all chirped their agreement. Carla calmly walked down the steps into the pool.
"She… wore.. a itsy bitsy black polka dot bikini that she wore for the first time today!" Chris sang, mocking his sister , quickly joined in by Finn. Topaz and Tina each tackled a boy in annoyance.
"Finn be nice. Carla looks very nice." Piper snapped.
"Wwe're just teasing." Chris exclaimed. Carla rolled her eyes and Tackled her brother.
"Awe… twins!" Topaz and Emerald chorused, each teasing, resulting in each being attacked by Carla or Chris.
X-X-X-X
So she really did escape, eh? Too bad. I'll get her next time." Her lavender hair slipped out from behind her ear and slid to cover one of the blood red eyes as she sharpened another dagger before dipping it into a lilac liquid that glowed.
