Pearl sat in her clam chair straight and rigid, waiting for the lesson to start. Miss Coral was teaching English today, Pearl's favorite subject.

"Hello nymphs! Today we will be writing poems about storms. I hope your imaginative and creative switches are 'on' because we gotta start really quickly!"

Pearl sighed with relief. Poem writing meant no interrupting teachers when she told the future and no embarrassing herself. She quickly took out her milky pearl pen and started to write.

A storm is deep and scary,

no nymph is ever merry.

When it comes to bay it kills,

dryads and satyrs can't build.

The cloud nymphs above are stuck in the skies,

us water nymphs, all we can do is hide!

She kept writing about storms until her little voice in her head whispered The Shadow Storm is coming. Coming... Coming... So that was all she ended up writing without noticing.

The storm is coming,

no flora will bloom.

Till the waves come whooshing,

the Shadow in room.

The Shadow will sweep us,

evil thoughts in mind.

For the Shadow shall crush,

us, one at a time.

The storm is coming,

the storm is coming.

The storm is coming,

the storm is coming.

The storm is coming,

the storm is coming.

That was all Pearl wrote before Miss Coral shouted, "What are you writing Miss Leung?"

Pearl woke up from a trance, looking at her work in front of her. Once again, her mind had empowered her body into a slave.

"I'm sorry, miss. It's just...just..."

"Just what?"

"My curse! I can see everything, feel everything in my mind. Even when my eyes are close they haunt me. Even in my sleep I dream. Oh, I will die in the embrace of my curse!"

Miss Coral looked at her with confused eyes. "Curse? What curse? You never told me you had a curse!"

"I was born with a curse. The curse to tell the future."

"Oh, Lord Gabriel watch over us! You were never told the truth from Lord Gabriel, but I cannot tell you. It is against the laws of the wise."

"But the future is written on this sheet. This very sheet! No! No! No!" Pearl sobbed and sobbed until Angel swam over.

"Miss Coral, Pearl has this situation with the future so I'd rather you not mess with my bff or she'll erupt with bubbles. It happened to me."

Miss Coral walked away as the class stared at Pearl. Pearl did not meet anyone's eyes and fled the classroom.
