    “Girls, girls, great news!” mouthed their manager as he made his way up the central aisle. “They want you as the headline act for the Reef Festival next month. “

    The singers felt as if they were floating on air, which they were in a sort of a way. Their name up there on the reef in glofish – ORION. How good was that going to be?

    They reviewed their repertoire and their practice room, a small space between a few rocks, echoed with the music of songs from the old-fashioned “Catch a Falling Star” and “When You Wish upon a Star” to more modern, upbeat numbers like “Black Star”, “Starman” or “Starlight Express”, all given the Orion a cappella treatment accompanied by a single octopus on the drums.

    Their fame spread and soon the entire seabed was vibrating to the sound of their latest hit, “Three Times a Lady Star”, written especially for them by Lionfish Ridgehead.

    Fans are now awaiting the release of their Christmas album entitled “A Cool Yule from the Pool”.

  2. Excellent take on the prompt, Angela, neatly carried through with all the song names.
    I can’t get the image of the octopus on the drums out of my head.
    As for ‘Cool Yule from the Pool’… 😄🙃
