Barbie and the Diamond Castle Page #2

---

I'm Liana and

this is Alexa.

Can you tell us

your name?

It's Melody.

You must have

a favorite song.

Would you

teach it to us?

Please, we'd love

to sing with you.

I... I shouldn't.

We're fast learners.

Well...

It goes like this.

Believe

In all that can be

A miracle starts

Whenever you dream

Believe

And sing from your heart

You'll see

Your song will hold the key

Believe

In all that can be

A miracle starts

Whenever you dream

Believe

So...

And sing from your heart

She's in the mirror.

You'll see

Your song will hold the key

You have to hide me,

he's seen me in the mirror!

Who's seen you

in the mirror?

Slyder.

We have to hide.

We have to hide now.

The cellar, go.

Liana.

Just go. I'll

be right there.

Come out, come out,

wherever you are.

Sing, why don't you?

I led him here.

A-ha!

Some friends you have,

leaving you behind like that.

No.

No.

No, no, no!

There's

nothing left.

Nothing.

It can't be.

This is all my fault.

Throw me far away

before he comes back.

Why? What does

he want with you?

It's Lydia,

his mistress.

She must know

I have the key.

The key to what?

The Diamond Castle.

A diamond castle?

My home.

The birthplace of music.

Every time

a new song is sung

anywhere in the world,

a diamond appears

on the walls.

I lived there with Dori,

Phaedra and Lydia.

The three Muses of music.

They took care of

the Diamond Castle

and I studied as

their apprentice.

They were all friends,

playing different kinds of music,

but Lydia wanted to be

the one and only Muse.

What happened?

Dori and Phaedra believed

music was for everyone.

Lydia was furious

and vowed to get the

Diamond Castle for herself.

She found an ancient cave

filled with magic,

and transformed her flute

into an instrument

of dark magic.

With her new powers,

she came back for the Diamond Castle,

to spread her darkness

everywhere.

The Muses hid their musical instruments

along with the castle,

and gave me the key,

in case anything

should happen to them.

The Muses tried to

reason with Lydia,

but she just

turned on them.

I ran and ran,

but Slyder was chasing me.

And then,

I saw my only chance.

I hid.

But I dropped my whistle

and Slyder broke it,

trapping me in the mirror.

I was so afraid.

I never said a word,

until I met you two.

And now, look.

I've ruined everything.

But if you

have the key...

Do you know where the

Diamond Castle's hidden?

Yes, near the

Seven Stones,

far to the west.

Can Lydia

be stopped?

I hope so.

I think if I play

the Muses' instruments,

I can break her spells.

No. No. Liana,

we've never been farther

away than the village.

Melody, what happens if Lydia

destroys the Muses' instruments?

She wins.

She has it all.

Our world will be nothing

but shadows and sorrow.

Kind of like

our home.

Exactly like

our home.

Lydia and Slyder

did that to us.

They'll do that and

worse to other people.

Can we let

that happen?

You want me to say no, don't you?

It's the three of us now, Melody.

Really?

The three of us?

I like that.

What about that serpent?

Will he come back?

Not if I don't sing.

And I love singing.

I found her,

mistress.

Where is she?

I'm in no mood

for games, Slyder.

Here, here. She's

hiding in the mirror.

I saw her singing

in the mirror.

Oh, really?

Melody...

Auntie Lydia would like

to have a word with you.

Melody?

Where did

you find this?

She was singing with two

other girls near a cottage.

One with light hair

and one with dark hair.

Take me to them.

It's beyond

beautiful.

Look, Melody.

We made it,

the Valley of Flowers.

Mmm.

I smell roses.

Liana.

Snake!

Cutest snake

I've ever seen.

Okay, okay, I was only

trying to protect you.

Look at you.

Aren't you the

cutest thing?

Where'd they

come from?

There's nobody

for miles.

They must

be lost.

Look,

they're friends.

We can't leave

them here.

They'll starve.

Hey, hey,

that tickles.

What do you think, Melody?

She's a keeper right?

Aw, look at

her sparkly little eyes.

Sparkles, I like that.

I hereby name you

Sparkles.

And what should

we call that little one?

Your name is Lily,

like the beautiful flower.

Can we keep them?

Can we keep them?

I think we have

room for two more.

Oh, I bet you little guys

are hungry though, aren't you?

Don't even talk

about food,

my stomach has been

rumbling for miles.

Ah! So, that's

what I was hearing.

I thought

it was thunder.

Or stampeding horses.

Enough.

Or jump

roping elephants.

Mmm!

Smells like

roast chicken.

I'm starving.

Go ahead, you

haven't eaten all day.

We'd love to, but we

don't have any money.

That's where the

smell is coming from.

Am I drooling?

I think I'm drooling.

Have you seen him?

Well, have you?

Who?

Those good for

nothing musicians.

They were due

here an hour ago.

I should never

have hired them.

I told myself, "Edgar, don't

hire those rascals again."

Oh, but did I

listen to myself, no!

When are

they coming?

They're getting

restless.

Hold your horses,

they're coming.

Actually, they're here.

That is, we're here.

We're the

substitute rascals.

Uh... Musicians.

We are?

We are.

We're very good and

we'll only cost you...

A meal.

I mean, two meals.

And two

doggie bags.

Hmm...

How do I know

you can play?

Where

is the music?

You're hired.

Hey!

Perfectly good

mashed potatoes.

Think I could get them to

throw some gravy this way?

Come on.

Give us some music,

will you?

Who are they?

Good evening.

Hello.

Here we are

Far from home

Little bit hungry

And a little alone

But it's all right

Yes, it's all right

'Cause in this room

There might be friends

Can't see how the story ends

But it's all right

Yeah, it's all right

We can start

Anew

Can't go back

So we gotta go on

We'll stick together

Staying strong

There's a diamond castle

In my mind

And someday soon

We're gonna find it

We're gonna find it

We're gonna find it

We're gonna find it

Somehow things are looking up

Feeling like we've

Changed our luck

I can see life

In a new light

Can't stay long

Can't stay long

Passing through

Passing through

Don't know where we're

Going to

But it's all right

'Cause we just might

Find a way

That's true

Can't go back

So we got to go on

Cheeky they are,

taking our place.

Not bad though.

Not bad, for girls.

And someday soon

We're gonna find it

We're gonna find it

We're gonna find

The perfect place

For us to be

And hear our

Melody set free

Wait, wait...

I feel something.

It's very faint.

Can't quite make it out,
