Melody giggled as Devil set her back on her feet and he laughed. She softly punched his arm and he laughed.

"Hey Symphony, I'm gonna go see if those four are awake yet, OK?" Melody just nodded breathless. She stared at the ocean and heard his retreating footsteps. She couldn't help but think that Devil knew her family's secret, though it's not really a secret anymore.

She sat there for a while, thinking about different things, mostly about what Devil told her about his life.

"I know! I'll get him to go into the ocean again!"

"Get who to go into the ocean?" Melody quickly turned her head slightly to look upon her two aquatic best friends.

"Oh hi Dash! Hi Tip! What's cookin'?" She gave them her best apology smile. She hadn't seen them since the incident with Devil.

"Nothin' much." Tip looked around his surroundings, making sure no one else was there. "Where's your boyfriend?"

"Devil, is not my boyfriend, he's just a friend." Melody rolled her eyes at the immature penguin.

"He sure seemed important." Dash mumbled, casting his eyes down. Melody felt sad. She shouldn't have tunred them away like that.

"Don't worry Dash, there's nothing going on between me and him."

"That's great! That means you'll have time to go to the-"

"Symphony! It's time to go! They're awake!" Tip was cut off by the red eyed boy who called from a little far away. Melody looked at her friends with an apologetic face.

"Sorry I have to go." Tip's beak dropped open.

"B-but Melody!" He whined.

"I have to go! Can you tell me later?"

"But we found something you will be interested -"

"Symphony!!" Devil called again. Dash felt sad yet again. Their friend was leaving them again - for that Devil kid.

"I promise I'll see you both soon, okay?" Melody smiled at them again and began to walk away.

"We don't need her! It could be just the two of us again, like old times!" Tip began to swim away. Dash silently followed. Who else were they going to tell about the Atlantian queen staying within the borders of the Atlantican kingdom?


My Special Words ( or not )

Well I know that this was short, but right now I'm on death row.

I got an F in English ad I still haven't told my step-father.

I'm afraid. So very afraid. Not to mention I have a D in World Civilizations......

But I'm passing all the other classes! I take great pride in my ceramics!

So hopefully I don't get grounded!!
