| L'Amour and Ashley looked at each other and smiled, wearing their graduation cap and gown proudly. They were both student of the year for their graduation. While Ja'mour seemed calm, cool, and collected, Ashley was as nervous as could be. She did plan on speaking in front of the audience after all and worried her speech might not go well. Secretly, she snuck out her starfish. They always had advice and could mimic her voice. In case she forgot, they could recite the speech for her and they didn't seem nervous about it at all. The feeling she felt when she touched them always relaxed her. These starfish were recordings of her best speech made yet possible when she was alone. Only they were alive and real. "In an hour our ceremony will start. We need to get to the front of the line right now. We're suppose to be in first. After all, we are the students of the year. It was a tie and we were both in the same grade. I'm all for my speech and I brought my starfish with me. I love how they are just cuddling up to me. They've grown bigger. Did you make your speech revolving around a starfish just for an excuse to bring your starfish in?" L'Amour asked first as they headed to the front of the line. "Yes I did. And we practiced together to make sure our speeches were wildly different too. I'm nervous by the way. There must be a whole bunch of people coming in to watch us. Don't forget Shannon the saxophone leader," Ashley huffed as she followed closely behind. "We are allowed to bring props with us to the speech. Male, female, it doesn't matter which. They both look the same. We both completed our first round and I changed my name to something more fancy. But want to make it fancier. What do you suggest?" "How about Quakeliso? I can change mine to Quakelisa. There is something special about this name I made up, even if we aren't lonely." "True, we are in this together. Old Skull would get a piece of my mind if he wasn't so powerful in an ugly way. We escaped him once. We know where we encountered him. We could search for clues to his weakness and see if we could raise enough creatures that, even if we're low leveled, we could defeat him. It will be tough. This calls for hardcore mode." "Yes. Okay, shh, the line is moving now. We must be quiet." They walked onto the stage and sat down while the others went to their spots on the floor. When it was L'Amour's turn he stood up and began his speech. The way he held his speech was so focused and casual that she forgot her speech. Heart pounding, her ears went red when he was done and it was her turn to give a speech. Slowly, she came to the mic. Then she looked down at her starfish. When she opened her mouth her starfish took over and started the speech. Then she began to remember all the words as she lip synced and started taking over. When she was done the crowd cheered. It seemed to be her best speech yet. But she knew her secret. The starfish had helped her and matched her lips perfectly well. Then she bowed and gave thanks before going back to her seat, holding her graduate degree. Her work was done. Then, when everyone was done, they went off the stage and outside. Their guardians were waiting for them with balloons. The next step was to become an assistant. Word Count: 613 Activity: "The Bradbury"  |
