RP:
She begins her performance in the center of the colossal ice rink. She wore a beautiful dress, made and tailored to perfection. As she makes even the slightest of movements, her dress flows and ebbs like the sea, showing the beautiful shades of ocean blue. This was an amazing compliment to the clear ice, mirroring her dress' movements. Her hair was braided on both sides, splitting in the middle. It was highlighted in blue, and has pearls and clams to further show the theme of the Deep Savers. All spotlight pointed towards her. The audience, ready to scrutinize every move she makes, ready to pounce on the slightest misstep, yet equally excited to see what the figure skater has prepared for them.
She begins with a familiar ballet dance step - tip toeing with arms bent upwards, with hands meeting above her head. A risky maneuver to start off her performance. It was difficult to maintain the pose, specially since she was ever-moving forward.
The figure skater then breaks her pose, following the music, ready for her next trick. She brought her right foot backwards, mimicking the crescent moon, as she begins reverse skating, Simultaneously she bring her left hand forward, then her right when it's her left foot's turn to slide backwards. The motion felt like she was pushing a wall as she skates backwards, all while maintaining her grace and timing.
With the slight change of theme from the song, she immediately switched to twirling on the spot, with one arm over her head and the other outstretched, mimicking a dancing flamingo. Once, twice, thrice. She finished the perfect twirl and immediately stopped on the spot, with the same arm position. She split her legs, one forward and one backwards. The forward leg was bent while the backward was stretched completely. This was done with the climax of the first half of the music. Her smiling face along with the awesome maneuver seemed to please the crowd.
She then sped forwards, gliding in huge circles and flapping her arms as a stingray would in clear waters. More of her ocean theme. Her movement continued, gaining speed. She has to be precise for the next trick. She pushed herself upwards with a jump, with arms outstretched, like the letter V. It was as if she felt like she was being carried by the waves. Her legs were doing a cycling motion, making her stay airborne longer. She landed as graceful as she jumped. She landed with one foot forward, and one immediately at it's back. It was sort of a commanding position, amazing timing with the change of the music. Her arms flapping upwards, mimicking the ever-graceful yet powerful lion fish.
With the music she breaks her position as she skates forwards, circling on the center of the rink. She raised one foot upwards, stretched behind her, with both arms outstretched on both sides, mimicking a T. She glided forward like a wave flowing towards a beach. Then, she made an unthinkable, and unbelievable maneuver with her other leg, her skating leg. She raised it in a tiptoe position. With the speed she accumulated, it was really difficult. It was a picturesque moment, displaying her grace, precision, power, and passion for the sport. She then skipped and hopped, one legged, maintaining her speed atop the ice, with arms making a waving motion. It was done on the climax of the second half of the music, which adds beauty to the whole routine.
With her speed at its peak, and still doing the hopping and skipping maneuver, she jumped at the end of it all. It was a moment of tension, as it was the peak of her performance. An aerial twirl. It was the famous axel! She twisted with so much effort and precision! The power of the performance was unlike any other! One, two, and a total of three times! A triple axel - a feat that is so difficult that it's only been done successfully a few number of times! Nevertheless, she achieved it with so much beauty.
She lands in a sort-of kneeling position, with one leg bent forwards and its foot tiptoed just behind it, and the other leg stretched at her side. Her arms were sort of bent upwards, like a letter U. Her momentum carried her kneeling position at the center of the stage, where she stopped with the end of the music. A perfection of a performance.
It can be said that this was actually practiced to perfection. The Deep Savers skater stood up and bowed, all while receiving applause and admiration. She has gone so far, already did so much, and at the end of it all, delivered a performance that she hoped pleased the great Venusmon. She skated away from the rink, waiting eagerly for the results.
