Aloe gasped. "Finn! Look!" She pointed to the water below them. The black water was churning violently, and the blackness was melting away as a bright white light appeared deep in the watery depths and the whole area turned bright ice blue.

Melodie shot up out of the water; a huge fountain of water supporting her. She was looking at Cyclonis with a murderous look on her face. "Remember me?" she asked calmly.
