Within Destiny
Oh god, I'm in such a major sugar rush right now! I literally whipped this up in a few minutes so I won't be surprised if any of you find it disappointing so… read on!
Drabble 10 (takes place right before Cole first sees Luna)
Out in a solitary lagoon, a lone mermaid gazed up at the full moon.
The mermaid's auburn hair flowed in gentle waves along with the breeze that carried the subtle scent of seawater and the purple scales of her tail sparkled like amethysts and the fin at the end of her tail gave off a shimmer, reflecting the soft moonlight. She parted her lips and a beautiful melody sounded forth for the surface to hear. Even the seagulls halted their calls and the ocean became still to hear her lovely song.
After finishing her song, the mermaid pointed her aquamarine eyes towards the waves where she came from and gracefully dove back into her home in the ocean. Greeting here were some dolphins and she caressed their smooth faces in greeting and was soon joined with other little undersea critters before descending into the deep depths of the ocean.
The mermaid swam amongst her underwater friends, spending another carefree day under the sea. She spent her night in the ocean singing, dancing, and exploring other parts of the sea. She soon saw an entrance to an underwater grotto and with her curiosity getting the better of her, she swam in to take a peek.
Inside the dark chamber, she made out the silhouette of a merman.
Though they only just met and she had no idea what he looked like, the mermaid felt drawn to this stranger. Before she knew what she was doing, she swam close to him but felt that he had a handsome appearance hidden in the shadows. The merman swam closer to him and she can see from his silhouette that he had a muscular body and the mermaid inched closer to him. His face was just about to emerge from the shadows when…
Luna Hoffman, student of the Marty Oppenheimer School of Performing Arts, was brought out of her dream by the alarm on her phone playing one of Estelle's songs, 'Never Say Never'.
The auditions for the eponymous heroine of The Little Mermaid were being held in a couple of hours and she was planning on giving it a go. The German girl was still naïve and in her first year so she didn't really expect to be chosen but she could use it as practice to fulfill her dreams to be one of the greatest idols of Ninjago since the era of the Black Diva.
'That's probably why my dream was of mermaids and stuff…' The aqua-eyed girl dismissed her dream as just her thoughts revolving around the auditions.
After getting ready for another day at school she gazed at a picture that meant so much to her.
On the picture was her mother and her beloved dog Jewel and Luna felt guilty for leaving them behind to pursue her dreams but she knew they still loved her even if she was so far away…
But she was also determined to make them proud.
"Mutter… Jewel… I'm going to do my best today!"
After gently kissing the picture, Luna went out to greet a new day…
…And maybe find her own destiny…
There. I just wasted your time with my sugar rush-induced brain fart. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go crash but as always, review.
