The day of the party finally came. Before we left the house, Isuru handed me something in a box.
"What's this?" I asked, thinking it was a secret weapon I could use in case I got into trouble.
"Open it," he said with a smile.
So I did. Inside was a necklace with a butterfly pendant. It was made of some kind of blue crystal.
"It's really pretty. Thank you." I couldn't take my eyes off it because it was sparkly and no one ever bothered to give me a gift like this.
"You're welcome. It's a good luck charm. Just in case..." His voice trailed away. We both knew the risks we were taking today.
I wanted to give him a good luck charm too, so I gave him a kiss on the cheek. He immediately turned red.
"Just in case." I gave a brave smile.
We met up with Prof. Dog and Mr. Frog near Aqua Chrysalis to discuss our tasks and finalize the plan. He gave us some disguises to keep our identities hidden.
