Chapter 3: Destiny, Here I Come!
Hi guys! I'm trying something new, for each line it means that it's switching point of views. Tell me what you think!
Today was the big day. The sun rose in Sirena's now empty room. Not only were the decorations packed away, but Sirena was already running downstairs. Sirena burst into the kitchen wearing her pink silk night set, as a request from her mother, cheering happily as she started dancing. "Well someone's happy" her father Eric stated. "Of course I am! I GO TO EVER AFTER HIGH TODAY! EEEEEEKKKKKKK!" Sirena shouted at the top of her lungs, just as her hair tie flipped out of her crimson hair and onto the marble floor. Ariel walked over to Carlotta, who had just entered the room, and sighed. "She's not coming is she?" Carlotta shook her hat and head with disappointment in her voice. "I'm sorry your majesty. Mistress Melody isn't coming I'm afraid." Ariel dismissed Carlotta as she sat down. Even in her bright gold and pink lace sleeved gown, Ariel looked sad. "Melody's not coming is she?" a familiar flattened voice said from behind the trio. It was Kai. "Oh honey, Mel is bus-" "OF COURSE SHE IS." Kai started to shout. It was obvious he had just woken up judging by his tousled ink black hair. "Young man I suggest you low-"Sirena's father was interrupted just like her mother was. "IT'S NOT LIKE WE HAVEN'T SEEN HER IN ALMOST 5 YEARS!" Kai shouted. Sirena's parents were thinking Kai was being spoiled, judging by the looks they exchanged, at that moment, but there was no fooling Sirena. Under all the shouting and anger Sirena saw a little boy who missed his biggest sister badly. Sirena's emerald eyes could even see crystal blue tears welling up in Kai's teal eyes. Before Ariel and Eric could start, their daughter held up a hand signaling that she got this. Sirena walked up to her upset brother and hugged him until his rage bursted into a million tears it seemed. "I know Kai. I miss her too." Sirena told Kai quietly. "Come on. Let's go pack." Sirena said quietly as she guided her upset brother towards his room. "It's a mystery how Sirena can calm him down better than us when he was little." Eric chuckled running a hand through his similar black hair. "I don't know how she does it Eric. I just hope Kai will understand." Ariel whispered worryingly while shaking her ruby red hair, as they continued with breakfast.
"Sunrise once more…." Rajah sighed. This time she had no one following her and her hair draped untied and loosely over her shoulders and back. This time Rajah was right above the dining hall, which she had to be very careful about since the roof above the dining hall was weak. "Look at those colors!" Rajah said with admiration. The sunset set off a multitude of colors for Rajah to admire. Rajah stared at the sunset for what seemed to be hours, but was actually minutes. A strong breeze blew right at Rajah, just as the sun started rising faster fading away all of the dark blue that was there minutes before. Rajah's long sleeved night shirt did its job by keeping her arms warm, but her legs felt the chill since she was wearing shorts. "What a beautiful view!" Rajah's eyes sparkled. She wondered why she was hesitating earlier to go above the dining hall. It was much more beautiful than when she was above her parent's room. At that moment, she remembered something her mother told her, "The world is like a thorny rose, it's beautiful but comes at a price". What price does watching the sunset above the dining hall cost? Rajah wondered. Her question was about to be answered. Aladdin woke up with the half blocked sun shining in his eyes. His mind went to Rajah, his daughter. How was she dealing with the decision of her mother? "Aladdin stop worrying. Today's our last day with our children. Let's enjoy it. Hopefully nothing bad happens today." Jasmine said giggling. "Today's going to be just fine Jasmine" Aladdin got up and gave his wife a peck on the cheek. "Don't jinx it Aladdin" Jasmine giggled. "Since when do I jinx things?" Aladdin thought for a moment. "Instead don't answer that." Jasmine laughed and ran downstairs while Aladdin got dressed in what Rajah once called "the typical poofy prince outfit". It was basically the sultan outfit he always wore. Aladdin strolled down to the dining hall, enjoying all of the photos that were hung up of Rajah as a little kid. She always looked up to both of her parents. Rajah found the story of how they met enchanting. You'll always be my little girl Aladdin thought. The dining hall was different somehow…. Aladdin wondered what was different. Aladdin left the subject alone and stared at Jasmine. It still amazed him how he got a girl as beautiful as Jasmine to be his wife. "Where's Ali?" Aladdin asked as he sat next to his wife. The dining hall was an undecorated except for a large diamond and crystal chandelier. Ali walked in just as the couple started eating. "GOOD MORNING AGRABAH!" Ali's short brown hair was a tousled and his golden colored sleeping shirt and pants were wrinkled beyond believe. "Someone's loud today." Jasmine stated as she stuffed her mouth with oatmeal and swallowed "He's defiantly your son". Ali walked over to a chair and sat down. The olive green cloth chairs, Rajah Thought were boring, Ali found them quite comfortable. "Well nothing bad is happening. Looks like we'll get though this day without someone getting in trouble!" Aladdin smirked. Just then the roof crashed above them and landed on a strange soft part of the table causing everyone's food to splatter on them. Since Jasmine was eating oatmeal and toast, she got the worst of it as the oatmeal splattered on her face and outfit and the toast sat on her hair. The oatmeal dripped through her hair as she and the family saw who caused the trouble. Rajah. Rajah was caked in white dust from the top of her mixed black and dark brown hair to her curved blue sandals. Busted Rajah thought as she saw her mother's outfit and black hair covered in oatmeal. 3….2….1 Rajah thought. Once Rajah got to one, her mother and Ali started yelling and her father just laughed until Jasmine shot her husband a furious look. Then Aladdin started yelling. Whose side are you on? Rajah thought as she shot her father a look. Aladdin smiled weakly in return. It's going to be a long day Rajah thought.
"Sirena hurry up! We're going to be late!" Ariel yelled. "Okay Kai do you have everything?" Eric asked his son, "Yes dad" Kai ran his hand through his ink black hair, just as Sirena stepped out. Everyone's jaw dropped. Sirena was wearing loose pants and a tank top with her hair in a ponytail that made her crimson hair reach to her thighs. But the thing that really bugged Ariel was that she was wearing thick cocoa brown boots. "What?" Sirena said puzzled at their dropped jaws "My gown ripped and all my other gowns are packed away." "Just for today right?" Ariel questioned "Yes mother. I only have one of these outfits". Ariel sighed. "Well let's get going!" Kai screamed. The family got onto the boat and brought the bags. "Were ready guys!" Sirena yelled. All of a sudden, blue-gray harnessed dolphins squeaked happily and started moving the large gold and navy blue wave boat. Sirena saw her mother's pet dolphin and smiled. She climbed down onto the dolphin and started riding Blue, the dolphin. She started riding Blue faster than her family boat. Her brother came up; his teal eyes shining with happiness, behind her riding a dolphin he called Red. Kai now was at his sister's side riding next to her. Sirena took her hair tie out. "EVER AFTER HIGH, HERE I COME!"
Rajah heaved her tiger striped suit case over to one of 3 flying carpets on the palace grounds. The 3 carpets were identical with the same golden yellow and sky blue matrix patterns with thin green outlines. Ali wasn't packing anything. He had done it earlier while Rajah was getting lectured and questioned about why she added an air mattress onto the table. That and it took her 2 hours to clean up the mess as a punishment. Rajah now had her hair in a loose hair bun and her outfit was a gold thin fabric shirt with lace sleeves and matching thin fabric pants. The fabric was shimmered in the golden rays of sun. Aladdin came out all of a sudden sad and depressed his eyes full of sadness and morning. "Dad, what's wrong?" Rajah said as she rushed to his side. "Guess what tomorrow is." Aladdin responded with a flat voice. Rajah knew immediately knew what her father was talking about. Abu's anniversary. "Dad I'm so sorry. I..." Rajah didn't know what to say. Abu died three years ago. Nothing horrible happened. It was just of old age. Aladdin had told both of his children about how much Abu meant to him. When he died, it wasn't Aladdin who found him. It was Rajah. Rajah, at the age of 12, even made a grave for the little monkey in the back of the palace. She even kept his little vest that he always wore, in her room. Aladdin couldn't blame her since he kept Abu's hat. Rajah would be sad that she couldn't spend that special day with her family. Everyone, even Jasmine, looked down and started to cry. Without Abu most of the family's precious memories, wouldn't exist. "It'll be okay dad." Rajah said with tears glittering in her navy blue and dark brown eyes. After a few minutes it was time for the family to part ways. "Bye Ali. We'll see each other soon." Jasmine said to her only son. Ali flew away on his carpet with the bags not far behind. "Bye daddy." Rajah said with tears ready to fall. Rajah had always been the climber, both literally and expressively. Her parents meant the world to her. Rajah got onto her carpet trailing after Ali for a short time, until she passed the palace walls and was invisible from her parents view. Rajah felt freedom. The wind in her hair, fluffy feeling of the clouds almost dancing in her hands, even the fear of falling (Though very tiny) was new to her. "GOOD BYE PALACE WALLS!" Rajah shouted. This was only her first taste of freedom. "I'm coming Ever After High!"
