Into the Other World

23.

Night came and they all decided to stay in a cave near by.

"This is all I could find",said Christofre dropping the wood.
"Its freezing in here",complained Rafe,"I should have just gone back to the palace when I had the chance".
"I'm trying my best here okay",fumed Amara,"Stop complaining and help us out".

"Get some rest",suggested Eta,"Tomorrow is going to be a long day".

Ivy nodded and Eta went back. Sitting there she looked at the water and with thoughts rambling in her mind tired to control her composure.
