Part Of That World

Jade swam after his brother, after Floyd left in such a hurry.

"Floyd..I wish that he'd understand you like I do.."He mumbles to himself, diving down to the entrance of Floyd's grotto, passageway opened. With a soft sigh, Jade enters, closing it behind him.

"I knew you'd be here," Jade sighs, seeing Floyd sitting on the floor, brushing his hair with the Dinglehopper.

Jade sat by him and held his hand out, looking at Floyd."May I?" Floyd looks and silently hands him the Dinglehopper.

"You know," Jade started, brushing Floyd's hair."He doesn't want us to get hurt. But I can also understand why you would be so curious...look at everything you collected."

Floyd looks up.

"I just..want to know why? Why oppose such amazing stuff.."

Jade smiles.

Look at this stuff
Isn't it neat?
Wouldn't you think your collection's complete?
Wouldn't you think your the boy?
The boy who has everything?

Floyd chuckles at him. Jade swims up, taking a nearby music box.

Look at this trove
Treasures untold
How many wonders can one cavern hold?
Looking around here you'd think
Sure, he's got everything

Floyd follows, laughing, grabbing some of his favorite collectables. Jade knew he was cheering him up.


I've got gadgets and gizmos a-plenty
I've got whozits and whatzits galore
You want thingamabobs?
I've got twenty!

Floyd looks down at the Dinglehopper in his hands. He looks around, he's happy but his heart felt empty without one thing.


But who cares?
No big dea
I want more!

Floyd leads Jade to a nearby painting of the two beautiful people dancing.


I wanna be where the people are
I wanna see, wanna see 'em dancin'
Walking around on those, what do you call 'em?

Oh, feet!

Floyd laughs and drags Jade even higher in his cove, pulling him into a fast dance.


Flippin' your fins, you don't get too far
Legs are required for jumping, dancing
Strolling along down the, what's that word again?

Street


Up where they walk, up where they run
Up where they stay all day in the sun
Wanderin' free, wish I could be


Part of that world

Floyd sinks down, taking a nearby book, but he could only think of his father and their many arguments about his dreams and hobbies, often compared to Jade when Jade was even mentioned between the two.


What would I give if I could live out of these waters?
What would I pay to spend a day warm on the sand?

Jade, as if he knew what he was thinking, swam next to him, looking at his twin with a sad smile.

Bet'cha on land they understand
Bet they don't reprimand their children
Bright young people, sick of swimmin'


Ready to stand!

Floyd immediately went through the book that he was holding in hands, his face gleaming with excitement.


And ready to know what the people know
Ask 'em my questions and get some answers
What's a fire and why does it, what's the word?

Burn?

Jade was the one who pulled Floyd to a dance this time and never let go of his twin.


When's it our turn?
Wouldn't we love, love to explore that shore up above?

They looked up at a beautiful gleam of light that give their scales a glow and looked at each other.


Out of the sea
Wish I could be
Part of that world..

Jade held Floyd in his brotherly embraces. "Better?"

Floyd sighs happily."I'm glad I can tell someone..someone like you, Jade."

Jade smiles more."You know I will always listen to you, even if I do disagree. Becoming a human is such an odd request. Who would have the magic-"

That's not as odd as you think. Azul is a sea warlock! He can make us human in a snap!" Floyd interrupted, immediately heading for the exit.

"He has strict rules about that, Floyd."

"He'll make an acception for us! He always done!" He zoomed away, with Jade following him on his bubble trail.

Jade sighs and follows him. "Floyd!!"

****

"Absolutely not!" Azul stated, after repeated attempts of Floyd asking. "It's dangerous."

"How dangerous can it be? And besides, you're my friend..."

"And as a friend, I have the right to protect you from your stupid ideas. One thing about sorcery, a deal has to be made. Also payments! Anything could be payment, and sometimes, they give you such small amounts of time." Azul sighs. "Listen Floyd, I do admire you wanting to try something new, but sea witches will take advantage of one's dreams."

Floyd nodded, seemingly understanding Azul's concerns.

"Well..when you think about it like that..that does sound pretty dumb." Floyd chuckles.

"Floyd, I mean it." Azul warned.

Jade looks up."Hey.. what are those.."

All saw, pretty big colorful lights immediately burst from above the sun.

Floyd immediately swam up, followed by Azul and Jade.

"What is that?" Jade questioned.
