Me: Now to update this story.
Piper: This would be her second story to update so technically two down two to go.
Me: (whimpers) oh goddess
Aerrow: Because Saphire broke her promise Piper is making her type up four chapters for different stories to make up for her mistake.
Piper: Now roll the clip… story whatever.
When Piper woke up Saphire was looking through a prom magazine. Aria was looking over her shoulder.
"Hey, good morning sleepy head. Come look at some prom dresses. We're looking through for ideas for the ball." Aria exclaimed. Saphire looked up and smiled.
"Come and look with us." Saphire exclaimed. Piper got up and walked over and looked over Saphire's Shoulder.
"I like this one." Saphire exclaimed, pointing to a blue gown with a split that went mid thigh and was opened backed with a gash that went around her midrift but ended on her back like a string. Sequins and beads glittered all the way down the dress and had a silver embroidery on the hem.
"Nah… I like this one better." Aria said, pointing to the silver dress with an open back and a split going up to mid calf and had no back cover until just above her butt with pearls strun onto it.
"No.. it looks like a wedding dress. All your missing is the veil." Piper commented.
"Who's the groom?" Saphire teased. "Finn?" Aria turned red and looked away.
"I like this one." Piper stated as Saphire turned the page to a picture that folded out. They studied the dress. IT was a split in the front that went up to mid thigh with ruffles around the split. It had an open back and a every low neckline that nearly showed the top of the model's breasts. It was a multiple colored dress, reds, pinks, and oranges came in layers of the dress. There were other dresses just like it in different colors, blues, silvers, greens, purples, and one that was silver, blue, and white.
"I can see Piper in the blue, white and silver one." Saphire commented. Aria nodded.
"It's a very elegant dress yet a highly revealing one which might help Aerrow go after
her." Aria agreed. Piper rolled her eyes.
"Why won't you two give up on that? Aerrow wouldn't like me for his life." Piper said.
"Piper wouldn't like me for her life." Aerrow said as he spoke to Harrier, Finn, and Junko as Starling showered, the running water drowning out the girl's conversation up stairs. Finn shook his head as he buttered his toast as Junko poured syrup all over his toaster waffles.
"That's not true dude." Finn stated.
"He's right. I think you both are in love each other but believes the other doesn't feel the same way." Harrier said as he took a bite of his toast and jam. Aerrow shook his head as he took a bite out of his toast with jam as well. A sudden shriek that belonged to Piper was heard as she ran down the stairs.
"Keep it away from me Aria!" Piper shrieked as she ran into the kitchen in a large men's shirt in midnight blue. Piper ducked behind the fridge before Aria ran in holding a rat covered in peanut butter making Finn jump up onto the counter with a shriek.
"Where's Piper?" Aria asked. Aerrow pointed into the living room which there was a window to through the kitchen. Aria nodded and ran out the room. Piper peeked out from behind the fridge and smiled before sprinting out of the room.
"That was… unusual." Harrier exclaimed, half amused, half disturbed by Aria's actions.
"I will never get females." Finn said.
"Maybe she has… mind worms… we should all be tested." Stork exclaimed as he poked his toaster waffles.
"you gonna eat those?" Junko asked.
"No.. you can have them." Stork said standing and leaving the room. Saphire's shout was heard as Starling turned the water off.
"PUT THAT RAT IN THE TRASH ARIA!" Saphire shouted as Aria's laughter was heard echoing down the stairs and through the halls.
Starling walked into the room with a towel in her hand, rubbing her hair as she walked, her purple pants and light blue t-shirthugging her form.
"Is it me or is this morning really loud compared to it's normal loudness?" Starling asked.
"It's not you." Harrier answered before taking a drink of his coffee.
"It's probably because we're here." Aerrow stated
"No it's not you guys, Saphire and Aria are pure Drama queens in the morning they are louder than usual, and Piper's shriek at that rat doesn't help. Aria must be having her period soon, she get as cocky as heck just before it. She does the most unusual things.you'd think for a 17 year old girl she wouldn't b e like that but a mature woman." Starling stated as she dropped two slices of raisin bread into the toaster and pushing towel the little lever before returning to drying her hair.
"I wouldn't believe that for a minute. Look at Saphire, She's 17 and a half she acts like Aria too." Piper exclaimed as she walked into the room in a light blue mini skirt and the deep blue cami she had worn briefly the night before. Starling looked thoughtful for a moment.
"She has a point." Harrier exclaimed. Saphire ran into the room in a deep blue mini skirt and a deep blue belly shirt with fringe.
"Is this outfit cute or what?" Saphire asked. Junko and everyone studied her.
"Try what." Aria said walking in in a silver t-shirt and mini skirt with fringe. "What would really cute would be your top in silver in my skirt together. Talk about match huh?"
"So true." Saphire commended. Starling rolled her eyes as Piper sat down.
"Girls…" Finn mumbled. Starling's toast popped ( opps… Piper: What? Me: I typed in pooped by accident. By time the reader's read it they won't see it.) Starling grabbed it and smeared a thin layer of butter onto it.
"Guess what? We buy our dresses today. Piper, you now that dress you saw, I know where to get one in blue, silver and white with a little bit of glitter and it's the only one on Terra REX! It hasn't sold yet because no one knows it's there. I called and had it reserved for you, so they'll set it out so you can try it on and if you wish, buy it. The Terra Rex council's leader's daughter, Lina, was supposed to have it but she'll never know it was supposed to be for her if we get it before she sets her eyes on it. Lina's a snob. She's a stupid little blond girl! UGH!" Saphire cringed as she spoke about Lina.
"She's horrid, her eyes… have black irises and purple pupils and she always seems like she's staring through your soul. Everyone fears her wrath because she's so horrid. I've run into her once or twice. Or more like a dozen times. She seems to think all who live on the terra are hers to rule, hers to command and hers to bend to her every will and whim. It's disgusting." Aria cringed as well talking about her.
"She's tried numerous times to ruin my relationship with Harrier. She's a bitchy version of Saphire and Parts of Aria combined and sadly more." Starling said.
"Drama queen, Fashion geek, fashion freak, snob, and bitch are only some of the names that fit her." Harrier added. Starling nodded.
"Well then we better go snatch that dress and freeze her in her tracks." Piper stated as Saphire handed her a plate of toast.
"After Breakfast. It's the most important meal of the day and besides, the store doesn't open for another hour and also, Lina doesn't wake up until 11, it's only 9. And Never go shopping on an empty stomach. And if you do go shopping on an empty stomach, ya better be munchin on a nice soft sky pretzel." Saphire said, taking a bite of Sky cereal, ( it's a brand of cereal)
"She's correct on that one." Aria stated as she munched on a bagel. An hour later the girls were headed to the mall. Once there Piper looked at the dress as she other girls looked for different outfits. About 10:30 the girls took like 20 gowns the the dressing rooms to try on. Saphire tried on the same gown in 4 different sizes, but none of them suited her. It was an emerald dress with a saphire ribbon tied around the waist.
"Tooo green." Aria said.
"And a little toooo plain for a sky knight's sister." Starling added.
"And has none of the qualities of the 5 must have at least one of these list of prom and ball dresses." Piper added. The other girls nodded. It had no ruffles, no layers, or pattern, no open back or split or gaps in the cloth to show off curves, and nor was it beaded or sequins.
"Try on the next one." Aria said looking back down at the magazine in her lap. Saphire closed the door and came back out a few minutes later in a plain blue dress with ruffled sleeves and a split that went mid thigh.
"Um… eww… ditch the ruffles." Aria exclaimed with a horrified expression.
"Agreed." Starling said. Piper nodded. Saphire sighed and tried on another gown, and this time, it was just right. IT was sapphire blue with beads and lace, with a split going up to upper thigh and an open back. Silver flowers glittered in the lace that covered her stomach. It trailed out slightly behind her.
"Perfect." Aria exclaimed. Starling nodded and smiled.
"That is sooo you. "Piper exclaimed. Saphire smiled and looked into the mirror.
"Oh yeah… this one is a keeper. I'll have to add a bit to the dress though. The train is annoying, I'll cut it and turn the fabric into a purse."Saphire exclaimed before returning to take it off and return to her outfit. Starling went in next. She came out first in a purple gown that went down to her knees with a split that went to mid thigh. It was plain but open backed.
"It's too plain for a sky knight and a skinght's girlfriend." Saphire exclaimed as she put the dresses she wasn't getting on the rack of the not buying clothes.
"Well, let's try another." Starling said. She returned a few minutes later in a light green dress with a blue cheetah pattern along the top. It was open backed and had a split that went to her knee.
"Not you." Piper said.
"Agreed." Starling said. As she went back to change into yet another gown, guess who Saphire spotted.
"OMG! It's Lina! And…" Saphire paused to clock at her cell phone for the time. " And it's only 11. She must have gotten up early."
"Oh dear lord." Aria groaned as Piper picked up her dresses and shuffled them so the dress that was originally for Lina, wasn't seen.
"How about this one?" Starling asked, coming out in a silver gown with a split going mid thigh, lace that covered her back and like half the gown, and a matching gloves.
"I think it's nice." Aria exclaimed.
"It's good Starling." Saphire agreed. Piper was staring off at Lina who wore the shortest mini skirt you've ever seen, so short you could almost see the thong that was underneath. She wore a white belly shirt that was tooo thin you could see the red hearts on the girl's bra. Flip flops were on her feet.
"Piper, what do you think?" Starling asked. Piper turned and looked.
"It's missing something, other than the shoes and jewelry. There's not enough… shine to it. Saphire, can you add beads to it?"
"Yes I can."
"Well then, we'll have to add them cause I think this dress is perfect with only a need for a few minor adjustments." Starling said walking back into the stall to change into her clothes as Aria walking into another to try her first gown. The first gown was white and plain.
"It' looks like a wedding dress. Again? Who's the groom? Finn?" Saphire teased.
"No, I was thinking of maybe adding colored beads to it but looking at it now on me, it wouldn't look right." Aria said. She went and changed into a different gown, this time it was green./It had no split but it had an open back and an opening in the front of the dress. Beads and sequins glittered on the hem and corners.
"YUCK!" Saphire exclaimed. Aria nodded in agreement. The next dress was the one. It was silver with a split that went upper thigh and had beads scattered around the base to make it looked like glitter was coming off the ground around the dress in thicker amounts on the bottom and thinned out as it moved up. A rose pin held the only strap in place.
"Aria… It's perfect!" Piper exclaimed. Saphire nodded.
"There's nothing else to say but to repeat what Piper said, and that gets annoying." Starling exclaimed.
"IT is perfect. Piper, Your turn." Aria Exclaimed. Piper stood and changed into her first gown. IT was a simple, plain pink gown.
"Piper, It's tooooo plain." Saphire said. Piper changed into a black dress that had a split in it. Silver lace grace itself on her shoulders.
"It's beautiful but not the one. Try on the one we saw in the magazine!" Saphire commanded. Piper smiled and did as she was told. For the most part the dress was blue with beads and glitter on the top. Then in the split there were two layer of ruflles, one in white and one in sliver, each with glitter, bead and sequin. It had an open back and silver glitter sown into the gown.
"Piper, That's The one!" Saphire exclaimed, making Lina walk over and walk around Piper.
"It is a lovely dress. But.. IT doesn't look nice on you. Take it off and try this nice red one. I'll this one on. It'll look much better on me!" Lina commanded.
"She looks fine Lina!" Starling snapped, slapping Lina's hand as she attempted to touch Piper.
"She's right Lina. Piper has never looked prettier and Red is not Piper's color, Besides she already tried on that red dress. Piper is getting this one! Right Piper?" Saphire exclaimed.
"Of course. It's soo lovely. Now I must change out of it or I can't buy it." Piper exclaimed. She went back and changed back into her clothed as Lina stood there, Fuming.
"That Dress is MINE! It's too perfect for anyone else to where! And it's one of a kind." Lina hissed. Aria smirked.
"Then you should have gotten it sooner. Piper got the dress fair… and square. "Piper walked out of the stall with her dresses and set the ones that she wasn't getting onto the rack and went to cashier with the other girls to buy their dresses.
"We'll look at jewelry and shoes elsewhere or later when Lina is not around. Which one?" Saphire exclaimed. The cashier looked at Piper's dress and asked for her to hold on.
"The last one. I wonder where the cashier is going." Piper exclaimed. Soon the Cashier came back with a bag.
"These come with the
dress. It's the shoes and jewelry that match the dress so you don't
have to come back later and rick Lina's wrath. Debt, Credit or
Cash?"
"Credit…" A voice responded. The girls turned to
see Harrier and the guys.
"I'll pay for it. If Lina is after it it's gotta be worth seeing her reaction when Piper is wearing it." Harrier said.
"Thank you Harrier." Piper said.
"What are you guys doing here?" Saphire demanded.
"Looking at Tuxes." Harrier responded.
"Go figure." Saphire exclaimed. Harrier finished paying the dresses and made the girls help with tux selection. While the guys tried on the outfits, the girls looked at Piper's jewelry and shoes.
"Oh they are soooo pretty. Lina is gonna be ." Aria exclaimed.
"I already am." Growled Lina from behind them. The girls turned to see Lina popping her knuckles as if to know someone out.\
"That dress is supposed to be mine!" Lina Shouted, making all the guys open the doors to the stall they were in before they finished. They only had on the pants and the shirt. Lina Attempted to Attack Piper, But Aerrow and Harrier got to Piper first. Harrier grabbed Lina's wrist as Aerrow pulled Piper out of the way.
"Stay away from her." Harrier growled. A Girl with black hair and yellow eyes with a tee shirt with a guiter on it walked over.
"Lina, Why don't
you jump off a in Cliff? You cause trouble where ever you go.
Even Terra hallow." A girl who looked just like the other
exclaimed. She had black hair and green eyes. Her hair had red
ends.
"Lina, go die." The other said.
"Topaz…. Emerald… I didn't think I'd run into you here." Lina spat as She yanked her arm from Harrier's grasp.
"You should have, Remember, We've been invited to perform with our band her at the festival." As The one with gold eyes spoke three other girls and two guys appeared next to her. One of the girls had green hair and hot pink eyes. She was tall and had a wiry frame. She wore a black t-chirt with a skull on it.
Another girl had a black mini dress and had blue eyes and Black hair but looked nothing like the others. She wore thick eye liner and black lip stick. The last girl had silver eyes and pink hair with dark skin. She wore a pair of dark ripped jeans and a black t-shirt. The two males wore ripped jeans and a black t-shirt. One had blond hair and blue eyes and the other had black hair and yellow eyes.
"Yeah, and you give my cousins trouble I give you trouble." Emerald spat. Her Nose ring glittering. It was a skull like her earrings.
"And you Give Topaz or Emerald's Family trouble, we give you trouble." The girl in heavy black make up said, her voice low and flat. Her tongue was pierced like her eyebrow and ears. So was her belly button but this girl was clearly goth with all the skulls.
"Why don't you freak shows shove off. Chase can stay." Lina said.
"I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than be with you Lina." The black haired one stated plainly.
"And I'm sure Chris agrees." The girl in heavy black makeup said." After all, I am his sister and I know him like the best."
"Well you and your brother are dorks." Lina stated.
"No body calls Carla a dork and lives to tell the tale." Chris said, popping his knuckles and his neck. Carla was the name of the totally goth girl.
"Tina, Tia, explain the reason why we don't take insults by bitches like her." Emerald said. The two girls with green hair and pink hair popped their knuckles.
"Yes, Tina let's hit the shit out of this girl…"The green haired exclaimed. Finn stepped forward first and socked Lina in the jaw, knocking her clear off her feet. Emerald raised her eye brows and smiled.
"Saphire, who's this nice boy?" Emerald asked.
"That's Finn… of the storm hawks."
"Really, if he's Finn that must make The lady next to Aria Piper, the guys with red hair Aerrow, and the wallop Junko, and the merb peeking out from behind the door of the changing room must be Stork." Topaz exclaimed. "I'm topaz, Lead Singer of 'back yard junk' and this is my sister and lead guitarist Emerald."
"That is Carla." Emerald exclaimed pointing to the goth girl before pointing to the blond boy. " And that's her twin brother Chris, our drummer."
"Then there's Chase." Topaz exclaimed pointing to Chase then pointing to The green haired girl." And Tia, our keyboard. Chase is lead Male singer and Guitarist."
"I'm Tina. I play the second set of keyboards. I play two of them at once." The one in Pink hair said.
"Your 'Back Yard Junk'?" Finn asked. The girls nodded. Finn pulled a CD out of his shirt. One the cover of the case was a black guitar with blue and red flames on it with a skull and in graffiti like font that Said 'Back Yard Junk' in blood red. He pointed to the CD. Tia walked forward and took it from him.
"Yep and this is our first CD." Tia exclaimed, handing it back and tossing her pink hair over her shoulder. Finn noticed then it was at her knees.
"You've got long hair."
"I know. I'm getting it cut soon. Ya should have seen Emerald's before she got it cut. It went to the floor." Tia said. Emerald shrugged. She sat down next to Piper leaned over and whispered something to her. Emerald laughed lightly before whispering back.
"So, you guys coming to our concert Friday?" Chase asked as Lina picked herself off the floor.
"Yes we are. Liked I'd miss my cousins playing." Saphire said.
Me: done. Now I gotta get this posted, it took me 3 days to write this. Forgive me. I'll start working on my next chapter soon.
