"I know how to make you're birthday better" Lanny said "You're gonna help me throw Brady over the sea wall?" Boom asked, Lanny gasped "Really because I know the perfect spot" he said "I'm joking" Boom said "Of course you're joking. Anyway I know the way to Mt spew, I could help you find the oracle" Lanny offered "But Mason said it was too dangerous" Boom said shaking his head, Lanny scoffed "Please those stories about 1000 ft drop off's and all the lava? Kind of exaggerated" he said, Boom looked confused "Mason didn't say anything about drop off's" he said "See, not even worth mentioning , so let's go rock climbing, and wear you're slippery dress shoes, you'll wanna look nice for the oracle"

Lanny said, I walked in "I'm coming guys" I said crossing my arms, Lanny looked annoyed "I don't know Shelby" Boom hesitated "Okay then I guess you wouldn't mind me sneaking downstairs and telling Mason where you're going" I said turning around "Wait!" Boom shouted, I smirked and turned around "She can come, right Lanny?" Boom asked, Lanny rubbed his forehead "Yeah I guess" he sighed, I smiled.

We were high up on a ledge and they both looked over "Wow, take a look at that thing" Boom said "Can you imagine what would happen if I fell in?" Boom asked "Not even in my wildest dreams" Lanny said, he went to push Boom and I coughed making Boom turn around "You should see this Shelb's" Boom said, I held onto the rock wall tightly "Nah I'm good" I said nervously "And you got us here Lanny and these shoes gave me the traction and the class that I needed" Boom said "Hey how about a photo of you and youre logic defying shoes?" Lanny asked, Boom nodded and Brady suddenly came in when Lanny was about to try and push him again

"Hey Boom!" Brady shouted "You're just in time to find out who's been older all these years" Boom said "No I'm just here in time to stop you from doing something really dangerous" Brady said motioning to the lava "let's go home" Brady said "Oh you'd love that wouldn't you? Tell you what I'll go home as soon as you admit to everyone that you don't know who's older" Boom said "See now you're just being a childish younger brother, now get off the ledge" Brady said, I walked forward a bit and I was able to see over the ledge "I am not you're younger brother, this is what I want, it's my birthday wish, I didn't waste mine"

Boom said pointing to Mikayla "King Brady, the lava really brings out the golden flecks in you're eyes" Mikayla said "Okay not a total waste but you, back off" Boom said walking forward "Dude you're not going anywhere" Brady said pushing him back "And who's gonna stop me?" Boom asked "I am" Brady said, Boom scoffed and they started wrestling, they stumbled over the edge and I ran up, but made sure to stay back "Is this my birthday?" Lanny asked obviously pleased.

It turned out the boys were fine and Brady chased Boom into a cave "We need to get down there, where's my rope?" Mason asked looking through his bag "I don't know maybe it fell out along the way" Mikayla suggested, I looked behind me in time to see Lanny throw rope into the lava "Remind me to never fall over a cliff while you two are in charge" he said as they searched, I glared at him "Why are you such a dick?" I asked, he glared back "Why are you being such a bitch?" he asked walking forward "Maybe because you're trying to kill my cousins" I snapped walking forward aswell "Were gonna hike back down to get some vines, you two keep an eye on the kings"

Mason said before leaving with Mikayla "Oh my eyes are glued to this train wreck" Lanny said, I pushed him and he nearly went over "What the hell Shelby?" he shouted, I rolled my eyes "Now you know what it's like when someone keeps trying to kill you" I said with a tone, he pushed me back "Well maybe I'll start trying to kill you off too" he said coming at me, I rolled my eyes and scoffed "You wouldn't last a day without me" I said, he chuckled "Yeah well I was doing fine before you came here" he said "You were taking advice from a fish" I pointed out, he glared "You.." he started but groaned in frustration when he couldn't think of anything "Exactly"

I said sitting down, he sat away from me "I wish you never came here" he said looking away from me, that hit me harder than it should "Oh yeah? I wish I never came" I snapped back, he looked like it hit him too "You know why?" he asked, I shrugged "Because I fell for you, you know Yamakoshi told me to never fall for someone but it happened and I wish it never did" he shouted, I sighed and pulled off my ring "Then you can take this back" I said holding it out for him, he looked from me to the ring then back to me "No" he said, I gave him a confused look and he came forward, he put his hands on my waist "No, don't leave me again Shelby, I couldn't handle it, I'm so sorry I said what I did, just don't leave me again"

he begged, his head was resting on my chest and I wrapped my arms around his shoulders "Why do we do this to ourselves? Is it always going to be like this? We argue, make up, fool around for a while and then start the cycle all over again?" I asked, he looked up and shook his head "No, we can try harder" he said reassuringly, I hugged him and he held me tighter, I felt him kissing my neck and I sighed "Not now" I said, I really didn't want to do this on a volcano "When we get home?" he asked pulling away, I nodded.

Mikayla and Mason finally came back while Lanny was frying up something or other "Lanny what are you doing?" Mason asked "I don't know, with the kings slow cooking down in the volcano roasting a weenie seemed to come to mind" Lanny replied, I rolled my eyes and looked over the edge to see Boom on a dodgy looking bridge, the whole place started shaking and I held onto a rock, Mason and Mikayla slid down on a rope and I joined them "Brady what is Boomer doing on that bridge?" Mason asked, Mikayla complimented him again before standing next to me, the place shook again and Boomer started screaming, I tripped over a rock and landed on my back "Shelby look out!" Mikayla screamed, I looked up to see a rock falling, I wasn't fast enough and it shot through my stomach, I gasped in pain and my whole body felt numb "Oh my god" Mikayla cried kneeling next to me "Help Boom" I gasped out before falling unconscious.

I finally woke up again in my bed, I felt really woozy and I had a slight ache in my stomach, I tried to sit up but it hurt causing me to whimper "Hey it's okay, just lay back down" Lanny said stroking my cheek, I sighed and rested my head against the pillow "Hi" I whispered smiling at him, he smiled a little "Hey, how you doin?" he asked sitting next to me, I giggled but it hurt "I'm okay, what happened?" I asked, he sighed "The rock fell on you, it went right through you're stomach, you lost a lot of blood baby" he said getting all emotional, I stroked his head "Hey it's okay" I whispered, he nodded "Mason pulled it out and brought you back here, we had someone look you over. And everything's gonna be okay" he said smiling, I hugged him tight and he hugged back "I love you" he said nuzzling my nose with his own, I smiled "I love you too" I said kissing him, he leaned back afterwards "Get some sleep" he said, I nodded and closed my eyes.

No one's POV

After Shelby fell asleep Lanny left the room and went downstairs, in the throne room were Brady, Boomer, Mikayla and Mason all looking grim, the doctor left and Mason shut the door "Did you tell her?" Mason asked, Lanny shook his head "I couldn't do it" he said sitting down, Mikayla sobbed and Mason hugged her "So what's gonna happen?" Boom asked looking up, he had tears marks down his face "She might make it, but only if the doctor gets here in time, if not then, she only has about 3 months" Mason said sadly, the boy's nodded and looked down, it started raining outside, the island was upset, it knew that it's princess, was dying.
