Poppy was helping out her employees set up Sweet Pop for their Fancy Pants Banquet.
"Ahhh, the fancy pants banquet." Poppy sighed. "Well, the most anticipated formal event of the year."
"And it's my first time experiencing it." Rose squealed. "I can't wait to get dressed for the day."
She helped her friends fix the utensil arrangements, placed roses into the vases, and fix the decorations with her magic.
"It's all about the detail, everybody." She said. "Everything will be just...hmmmm."
"Uh oh, what's wrong, are the napkin folds not majestic enough?" Smidge asked.
"No, they'll do, but something's still missing." Poppy wondered.
Suddenly, Guy Diamond was flying out of control and he accidentally blasted one of the pod lightings into something that made Poppy's eyes go wide.
"Wow, one of our lights look like a disco ball." Smidge giggled.
"Disco ball?" Poppy wondered if there is someone who does have a disco ball.
They went to DJ Suki's flat, where the moth winged sprite showed Poppy something.
"This is star maker." She announced as she opened the box and revealed a disco ball inside.
"Wow, you can't help but have fun with that." Poppy marveled. "It won't be complete without it."
"I dunno Poppy, star maker has been in my family for generations." DJ said. "It was forged by my ancestors from the purest glitter stone. It's party powers are legendary and now, it's been entrusted to me, I'd better put it back into my closer, where it's safe."
"But in the closet, star maker can't do what it's made to do, DJ." Poppy said. "Like a unicorn foal that wasn't allowed to play. Can we please borrow it?"
After DJ let them borrow it, Poppy, Smidge, Biggie, Cooper, Violet, and Rose flew across the city skies. Violet is riding her broomstick while the rest fly with their wings.
"I can't believe DJ let us borrow it." Smidge said.
"I promise, I'll take good care of it and return it to DJ after use." Poppy said.
Suddenly, the currents blew them off-course, and Poppy tries to save the box with her magic but the cover opened, and the star maker fell into Crystal Lake. They flew down to the ground, near the lake while Rose took the box and placed it in her bag.
"Well, let's dive down there and get it back." Poppy said with anticipation.
"What?!" They cried.
"But Poppy, its lost in the lake." Smidge added.
"Yeah, it was just an accident, DJ will understand." Biggie agreed.
"There's no way I'm letting a friend down like that guys." Poppy refused. "I can fix this and I know just a spell we can use to dive down there."
"Transformation spells require an item related to it and we don't have something to use." Smidge said.
"I got these fish scales and some broken shells from my cooking tutorial with Branch." Rose said as she took them out of her pocket.
"Rose, you're a genius, well use these to give us the ability to breathe underwater." Poppy squealed as she took the shells and the scales.
Poppy, Rose, Violet, Smidge, and Biggie recited the transformation spell and in a minute, their clothes are transformed into magical outfits that help them adapt underwater. Rose's outfit was replaced with a swimsuit-like outfit with a seashell bra, scaly minishorts, a skirt designed with a combination of long burlesque tutu skirt and showgirl skirt, pearl accessories, her bag became seashell shaped, and sandals with ribbons around her legs, Poppy is wearing a dress with a seashell bodice, a scalloped straps, and pearls embellished around the bodice and the scalloped skirt, and ribboned sandals, Smidge gained a colorful scale-textured top, leggings with fins and boots, Biggie gained a scale-textured short sleeved top, pants, and boots, Cooper obtained a full scale-textured wetsuit, with his hat gaining a nautilus shell-like design, and Violet got a sparkly mermaid skin-like top, a belt, scale-like colorful leggings with fins and boots with ribbons wrapped around them. The girls gained hair accessories, from Rose's shell tiara, Poppy's hair is adorned with pearls, Smidge's hairbow has corals, and Violet's hairbow looked like clamshells. Poppy, Rose, Smidge, and Biggie's' wings are adorned with seashells and pearls. Mr. Dinkles, on the other hand, gained fins and gills.
"Wow, we look like we belong to the sea." Poppy squealed. "And my hair is decorated with pearls."
"Guys, we don't have much time, let's dive right in." Rose said as they all dive underwater and swim to find the starmaker.
They descended into the lake to find it. Along the way, they saw fishes, carol coral, and glowjellies.
"I remember reading that glowjellies light up if you play a good beat near them." Violet informed them.
Smidge clapped her hands and one glowjelly light up to the beat. When she tried again, a lot of them followed her beat. As they continue swimming, they swam deeper into the bottom, only to find utter darkness. Rose did a light spell that illuminate the whole place but it's only used like a torch for them.
"Okay, can't see much." Poppy said. "So we'll just take it an inch of a time. All we require is a little patience."
"Poppy, look around." Smidge complained. "This is impossible."
"There's gotta be another way to beat this." Poppy thought of something.
"Beat, that's it!" Rose piped up as she swam near the glowjellies and clapped near them. The glowjellies started glowing to the beat of her clapping, and later, the others followed her beat. Poppy started singing and the others joined in the song as they followed the path of glowjellies.
Go on now shine your light

Grow like you mean it now

All together now let me see you glow so brilliantly
All together now shine bright for me

Hug 'em and shine brighter then
How you gonna say "We are fairies"?
Shine bright our light is gold
Shine your like for me
All together now let me see you glow so brilliantly
All together now shine bright for me
They finally arrived to a mound nearby and there, they found the disco ball.
"There it is!" Poppy gasped. "DJ's star maker."
"And look, all the things we lost too." Biggie added. "My baton!"
"My barbells!" Smidge said.
"My trumpet!" Cooper squealed.
"My stuffed bunny!" Violet quipped.
Poppy swam to the top and got the disco ball but a crab-like creature nearby sound an alarm and they got surrounded by a swarm of them.
"Uh oh, they're pretty angry." Biggie gasped.
"Let's get outta here." Smidge cried.
"Guys, they're the finders keepers critters, possessive little tykes!" Rose gasped. "I read about them in the internet."
"Let's see about that!" Violet growled as she cast a light blast at them.
The other sprites joined in as they used every spell they got, from Poppy's coral growth or Smidge using a sea urchin spine blast, to Biggie's whirlpool. Cooper noticed that Rose swam to the coral reef and hid there.
"Rose, you gotta help them out to fight the finders keepers critters." He panicked. "What are you doing?"
"I got a plan of my own!" Rose sighed as she placed something into her bag and took out a duplicate disco ball. She swam out to the finders keepers critters and called out to them.
"You want this?" She shouted. "Get it!"
The critters scuttled out of sight and took the disco ball with them. Poppy and her friends swam away from them and got out of the lake, only to see DJ Suki by the bay. They flew right up to her as Poppy had a look of guilt on her face.
"Uhhh, Poppy?" DJ said. "Why are you all dressed in scale textured outfits?"
"DJ." Poppy said as she told them the whole truth while changing back to their normal outfits and put their new clothes into Rose's bag. The others agreed with Poppy while Rose took out the box from her bag and gave it to DJ Suki.
"Hey, the star maker is safe all along, thanks Rose." DJ gasped.
"Wait, the box is the star maker?" Poppy was confused.
"Yeah, the sacred box, were you listening to my story?" DJ smirked. "The disco ball is just a star but the box is star maker."
She put a stone into the box and closed it for a few minutes, producing a disco ball inside. Rose knew that there is something magical about the box that she kept it safe.
"I guess that made sense that you just wanted a disco ball, I never should've given you the box in the first place, my bad." DJ said before flying away with the box. "I'll see ya at the banquet and thanks for telling me the truth."
As soon as DJ left, Rose went right up to Poppy to tell her something.
"You know, I remember seeing something special about the box when we went underwater so I used it to my advantage by putting a rock inside and use the other disco ball to distract the finders keepers critters." Rose said.
"Looks like we have a party." Poppy said as she held up the disco ball.
"Guess we don't need the other one, this can be a spare, just in case." Rose smirked as she placed the other disco ball into her bag.
