TON (1)


Trials of Nature

"The Secret Society of Buttercup is now called to order!" declared Sapphire. Sh set down her usual treat - white with pink icing. Everyone had their specific orders; Stella's being a devil dog.
"What is the subject of today's meeting?" asked Kate, knowing fully well why thy were there, but asked out of custom and order.
"I believe we are discussing the Fifth Official Matter of the SSB said Electra, gravely picking the icing off of her cupcake.
"Right, the Fifth Matter being, one of the most - controversial, and frankly stupid issues - "
"That is a matter opinion," interrupted Kate.
"For me to decide," said Sapphire with arrogance. No one commented. Sapphire was the leader of the SSB, and the unofficial outside group that made up the Society. And even in the middle of this war, they respected her.

"It seems that we find ourselves divided among our masters," said Sapphire.
"This meeting isn't going to work," said Stella in warning tones.
"Daddzy says it will," insisted Sapphire. She, Gwendolyn and Electra were all of the same party. Kate looked smug while Stella and Ruby glanced at each other.
"We should just get this over with," said Gwendolyn. "After this Society was formed, we got swept up into this war, destroying ever after our warm connections."
"That's true," allowed Stella.
"Over a stupid reason," repeated Sapphire. "And the stretching of the truth.
"Just why?" cried Electra. "You went and accused me and that's when it started."
"But we only accused you of what you did!" protested Kate.
"We didn't even declare war." defended Ruby.
"Oh, but what did you do? You shunned us, ridiculed us, just for supporting the Sun - " began Gwendolyn.
"Do you know what that means?!"
