A Continuing Search

[Lucia Nanami]

Lucia leaned here head back against the cool marble of the pearl bath's floor and sighed softly. She'd been in the human world for three whole days and still she had felt nothing from her pearl.
"I wonder if he still has it?" She mumbled to herself as the tip of her tail fin stuck out from the bubbly water. Even almost old enough to be considered and adult, Lucia still enjoyed her frequent Bubble Baths. Nothing wrong with keeping herself hydrated. With another sigh, she reached for her bubble maker and began to add more foam to the already large amount she had. What would she do if that boy didn't have it anymore?

[Hanon Hosho]

Hanon poked her head into the baths and managed to pull away before a large wave of water collapsed onto the dry, clean patio that Hanon had just finished cleaning. Sighing dramatically Hanon casted her gazed upon Lucia. She had, had enough for today.
"Lucia!" Her tone was sharp and tense. "I just finsihed with that area!" She cried as Lucia followed Hanon's outstreched hand to the now soaked and dripping patio. Irritated was just the tip of hte ice berge. Hanon was downright angry. "Why are you so selfish sometimes?" She asked in a soft whisper. She was careful to keep her voice low. They didn't need Nicola coming down on them again. Walking over to the patio with a mop and bucket in hand, Hanon began to clean up the patio once again.

[Lucia Nanami]

Lucia stared at Hanon rather shocked.
"I am not!" she cried, but then sighed softly. She needed to come up with a better comeback. Submerging herself under the water she clasped her locket in one hand. Images of the young boy she had saved seven years ago flashed threw her mind. Maybe, just maybe...

[Hanon Hosho]

Hanon sighed softly and wondering just where Seira had gotten to? The young mermaid was almost as bad as Hippo for finding ways to skip out on their take of chores. She suppose she couldn't blame them, after all trying to deal with Lucia wasn't the easist of jobs.
