"Okay, everyone. We're on live in 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2-"
"WELCOME PYRRHA! We're streaming to you live from our studio in New York City!" The announcer boomed.
"Please sit back and relax because the next hour is really going to fun!"
The curtain dropped, revealing a golden set, with plush couches, tables, and a huge glasses window looking out on time square and the ball.
"Millions of dragons have gathered here tonight in the bitter cold to watch the ball drop at midnight."
"Are you ready for the new year?"
"This is the question we're going to ask to several celebrities over Pyrrha!"
"First up- THE DRAGONETS!"
One by one the dragonets swooping in landing on the couches (Even Starflight managed to land without crashing.)
Lily walked onto stage with a dazzling smile, and a colorful party hat.
"Welcome! Thank you for joining us tonight!"
"So Sunny, are you ready for the new year?"
"Yes!" Sunny exclaimed, twirling in a sky blue dress.
"I know that everything will turn out okay in the end, and that we are well prepared for what's to come!"
She grinned, sitting down.
"Thank you Sunny! What about you Starflight?"
He turned red, twiddling his talons.
"Truthfully I'm not sure. I'm doing everything I can but I hope that will be enough. Will it?"
"I'm sure it will." Starcatcher said, as Flow and him walked onto stage.
"Now, Queen Glory are you prepared?"
"I will take it as it comes, and do my best to ensure the best outcome." Glory said, a ripple off gold cascading down her purple scales.
"Clay?"
"I think so." he said scratching his head.
"I'm ready to take it as it comes."
"Well said."
"And finally Princess Tsunami what do you think?"
"Yes!" she said puffing out her chest.
"I'm ready to fight my way out if anything happen though."
"Thank you dragonets!" Flow said.
"Now the Jade Winglet!"
They walked onto stage occupying a nearby couch (Expert Peril who hovered in the air careful not to touch anything.)
"So Moon what about you?"Starcatcher asked.
"Moon took a deep breath. "I think I am."
"I will just do my best to try to make this a good year."
"Winter?"
"Yes. I am ready."
"This year I will be strong, and true. And I will fight for my friends." he said grinning at a blushing Moon.
"Qulbi?"
"I am ready. I have a plan for the new year, and a new plan for Queen Thorn."
"Thank you, Turtle."
"Maybe. Well no not really I guess. I have no plan whatsoever except to stop all the evil villains in the next two books."
"Hmm. Finally last but not least Peril!" Flow said.
"I am! I will do all that I can to make this a good and safe year."
"Thank you Jade Winglet!"
"Now a toast to the New Year!"
Flow, Lily, and Starwatcher all took a seat as dragons darted around carrying bubbly glasses of wine and ginger ale.
"To the new year!" everyone yelled raising their glasses to the sky.
"I must say this has been a great night!" Lily exclaimed.
"Indeed." Flow grinned.
"OH MY GOSH GUYS LOOK!" Sunny yelped, nearly spilling her drink.
"THE BALL IS GOING TO DROP IN ONE MINUTE!"
As she spoke as the screens instantly started counting down. 60, 69, 68-
"Well folks this has sure been a great year!" Starwatcher cried.
56, 55, 54, 53-
"Are you ready?" Lily asked.
44, 43, 42, 41, 40,-
"Because here comes the new year!" Flow shouted.
33, 32, 31, 20
Everyone gasped.
It was almost here!"
15, 14, 13, 12, 11
"10! 9! 8! 7! 6! 5!" Everyone started shouting.
The ball started flashing.
"4! 3! 2! 1!- HAPPY NEW YEAR!"
The ball dropped, as confetti rained from the sky and from the set.
Streamers were blown and hats were tossed as the crowd outside roared.
"Thank you for watching Pyrrha's Got Talent, and have a Happy New Year!"
Happy New year. Thank you for reading my stories and supporting me this year. You rock! Good luck this year!
