~The day if Ava's funeral~
(all of them have moved in together after what happened with Ava. Their parents have approved. (There are five bedrooms, four of the rooms have two beds and one room has two beds and a sofa sleeper, and all if them have bathrooms) - Keda and Kya share a room, Peter and Parker share a room, Sapphire and Lexi share a room, Willow, Morgen, and Amelia share the room with the sofa sleeper, and Miuna and Manaka share a room.)

Lexi's POV
I finished changing and looked in the mirror. I had a long pale blue dress that went down to my ankles with silver high heel sandals and a matching black coker with a silver charm from our parents that me and Ava never took off (she was being buried with hers.) My long light/platinum blonde hair with with Very light blonde/white streaks (thanks to my powers) was a little wavy and went down a little longer than my shoulder blades.
"How am I going to make it through today, let alone my speech." I thought as I tries not to cry.
A heard the bathroom door open and saw Sapphire walk out wearing a short knee length dress the same color as mine that looked kind of looked like a sundress with silver high heels that had open toes and a thin strap around the ankles, and her wavy golden blonde hair was to her mid back.
S-"Hey, how are you doing?" She asked walking up to me and placed her hand on my shoulder.
"I'm alright... I think."
We sat down at the vanity and she started putting some waterproof make-up on me.
"Sapphire are we ok?" I asked as I closed my eyes so she could put on my eyeshadow.
S-"What do you mean?" She asked even though she knew exactly what I ment.
"With what Amelia said, about me ending up with Peter."
S-"I try not to think about that much, alot could change now that we know what's going to happen."
"Saph, I think of you like a sister and I don't want that to change."
S-"Nether do I Lex." She said as she started to put lipstick on me.
S-"Done." I heard her whisper and I opened my eyes.
"Thank you."
We got up and went to the living room to find every already there.
Keda and Kya were wearing short light pink knee length dresses with the same color high heels, Keda's dress had tank top sleeves and Kya’s dress had spaghetti straps.
Peter and Parker had matching light grey tuxes with a cyan tie and light grey dress shoes.
Morgen had a pale blue knee length sundress with white spaghetti straps and white flats with a little heel.
Willow had a fancy light pale blue knee length dress with very very light pale blue flats with a little heel.
Miuna and Manaka had light purple knee length dresses and the same color flats, Manaka's dress and shoes were a little bit lighter than Miuna’s.
And Amelia had one of Willow's nightgowns since we didn't have anything for her and they were the same size (Willow was really skinny because of her Father.) The nightgown was a white (with a little bit of pink) silk knee length dress with little designs by the left leg and white flats (the same color). It was fancy enough that you didn't realize it was a nightgown at first.
We all decide to wear light colors like we were going to a wedding than to wear all black like we're going to a funeral even though we are.
Since Ava never got to have her wedding, we made her funeral look like a wedding to celebrate her life, and the life we got out of this (Amelia)
Ke-"Are you ready to go Lex?" Keda asked as she stood up.
I nodded and Kya teleported us to the woods by my house.
Everything looked so beautiful, there were 13 white chairs and flowers surrounding every inch of the coffin (including the outside edges of the treehouse above the coffin).
"Wow..." I whispered quietly.
I stared at the sight in front of me, and tried to hold back my tears as I remembered why it looked like this.
K-"Are you ready to start?"
I nodded and Kya handed me a white rose.
"This was the same rose Kya used to cut herself during our first training...to make Ava heal her." I thought as I saw a tiny bit of dried blood on one of its thorns.
Kya waved her hand and everyone else had white roses and music started playing in the background.
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh uh oh
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when
She stands under my colours, oh and
Life ain't always what you think it oughta be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well, I've had just enough time
If I die young bury me in satin.
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
Uh oh (uh oh)
The ballad of a dove
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save 'em for a time when your really gonna need 'em oh
The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys, and I'll wear my pearls
I never realized why Ava liked this song so much until now... Everyone had already walked up to the coffin to say their goodbyes and placed a rose in her coffin. Now it was my turn.
Ava's light/platinum blonde hair was wavy and laying on her shoulders, she had the same long dark pale blue and silver dress she was wearing when she made her decision, she was barefoot, and...you could see every one of her scars the only words I could see carved on her arm was "Taking Kya’s memories" but even with all the scars she still look beautiful.
"Goodbye Ava, I hope you knew how much I loved you." I said as I placed the rose in her arms.
"Why did you have to go?" I whispered and started to cry.
I kissed her forehead and walked up to the podium...time for my speech.
"Excuse me." I said into the microphone and everyone looked at me.
"I wish I didn't do that." I thought.
"I don't really know what to say, but as all of you know Ava was...is my sister and I love her more than anything. I remember the times me and Ava would grab our sleeping bags and spend the night in this treehouse watching movies and playing games. All the little fights we would get in over stupid thinks like the Percy Jackson series. How I'd help train her with her powers. I just found out that the little girl that had trouble with the simplest spells...wasn't my sister. My sister was the most powerful person I ever met, and that she was just putting on in act. Ava was depressed and I never noticed the signs. And now I wish I just talked to her, helped her. I would do anything just to have her here with me one more time, to have one more conversation, to give her one more kiss, one more hug, to tell her how much I love her one more time..." I said. I got quieter with each word and and tears rolling down my cheek my the end of it.
"I love you Ava..." I said so quiet barely anyone could hear.
I walked to my seat and cried into my mom's shoulder.
I looked up and watched as Keda and Kya closed Ava's coffin and buried it on the ground next to our Father's grave underneath the treehouse.
"This is it. The last time I got to see my sister, now I'll never see her again...
Rest In Peace Ava...I love you..."
Author's Note - 😢 me trying not to cry as I write this at 3:00 in the morning. This was my first time writing a funeral scene so I tried to make it really sad (did I do I good job?) There are probably only going to be a couple chapters left (between 2 and 5). Thank you so much for taking the time to read my book and sticking with me through the really long waits for updates I've just been really busy.
I will try to update soon.
