of us in the family is that she has amethyst colored eyes. 
    We don’t know how she came to get that color, but they are strikingly gorgeous. She’s only a year younger than me, but I feel like I have to protect her.  Meliantha is timid and very tender-hearted.   Her magical ability is for nature and animals and she loves to tend to the gardens. Our beautiful gardens outside are t he work of her wonderful capabilities. She loves animals as well and when she steps outside they all flock to her , vying for her attention.
    I look at Meliantha and smile.  She’s still holding my hand looking at the ring when I say, “Your dress is magnificent as well, Meliantha, and Elvena gave me the ring. She thought it would be a great birthday present.” Meliantha looks up and lets my hand go. 
    “Do you know w hat Ariella is wearing tonight?  I haven’t seen her today.  She hasn’t been bothering anyo ne has she?” I ask curiously.
                  At the mention of Ariella, Meliantha and Xylia both try to hold in a laugh by covering their mouths with their hands. This is not good.  Meliantha looks at me , takes her hand away from her mouth and laughs .
    “Oh no, she’s been bothering people alright.  She’s been bothering people so much that she’s been banned from attending the ceremony tonight. ”  She shakes her head in disbelief.  “Serves her right, and M other and F ather were furious with her after what she did today.”
    Intrigued at hearing what my sister said, I had to ask. “What did she do now, blow down a house with her wind capabilities?”
                  Xylia and Meliantha both burst ou t laughing.  They are amazed with how I kn ow my little sister so well. Xylia decides to answer me .
    “Not only did she blow down a house, but she also blew one of the guardians across the court.  Apparently, she asked him to dance with her after the ceremony and he politely refused.  Your sister doesn’t take rejection very well , does she?  Anyway, Elvena will be keeping a watch on her tonight.”   That definitely sounds like my headstrong younger sister.
    “No, she d oesn’t take rejection very well and unfortunately s he still has a l ot to learn.  That poor warrior was probably afraid of her.  She needs to learn to control her temper or she’ll never find a guy that’ll be able to keep up with her.  I hate that I ’m not going to see her tonight, but m aybe it will teach her a lesson.”  I am hoping I’m not right about what she did, but my little sister is a feisty one. We all look at each other and smile . It’s perfectly clear from our faces that we know Ariella will never learn her lesson.
                    “The day she le arns a lesson is the day the Summer Court freezes over,” Xylia jokes.
    We laugh and cackle all the way out of my bedroom and down the long corridor to reach the winding staircase.  It fe els like I ha ve butterflies in my sto mach the whole way down to the Great R oom.  Once we reach the Great Room doors I pause to take a deep breath.  Xylia is on one side , Meliantha is on the other and I grab both of their hands and squeeze.  I feel deep down that a change is coming, and it is going to begin this night.  I just wish I knew.
     
    The Ceremony- Calista
     
                  The huge gold plated doors open and I s tand motionless for what fe els like hours.  Xyl ia clear s her throat while Meliantha g ives my arm a little nudge. 
    Xylia whispers, “Calista, it’s time.  We need to move forward.  It’s time to see all of t hose cute warriors in action.” I look over at her and she winks while looking at the warriors positioned on the right side of the room.  I turn my gaze to the warriors and they are all looking at me.  I close my eyes and take a deep breath.
    “I’m ready. Let’s hurry so you can get your f ill for the night,” I whisper back.
    We laugh softly and continue down the plush green carpet
