"Okay let me get this straight. Shuriki and Fiero stole pages so they could find another magic scepter?" Naomi asks while pacing as everyone is in Mateo's magic workshop.

"Yes the scepter of night." Elena says.

"According to everything I've read it's just as powerful as Elena's scepter of light." Mateo says.

"But we found a secret message from Mateo's abuelo Alcazar. Show her." Gabe says interrupting Mateo and gesturing to Naomi.

"Illuminate." Elena says raising her scepter as it glows and the secret message appears on the walls. Naomi gasped at the sight.

" Whoa." Naomi says.

"I suppose everyone knew about this new scepter power to?" Naomi asks.

" Kind of." Mateo, Alexis, and Gabe say in union.

"Last time I take a day off." Naomi says. Elena chuckled at the comment.

"So what does it say?" Naomi asks.

"Alcazar found the scepter of night and wanted to make sure it would be well-protected, so he broke it into three pieces, the staff, the mount, and the jewel." Mateo says while pointing to the parts on Elena's scepter.

"He left the staff where he found it and hid the other two pieces." Mateo says."Where?" Naomi asks.

"We don't know yet. When you find one piece a hidden riddle leads you to the next." Elena says.

"Man you wizards never do things the easy way do you?" Naomi asks.

"Hey if it keeps Sheriki from getting the scepter of night I'm all for it." Gabe says.

"So where is the first riddle?" Naomi asks.

"Illuminate. In the city of pyramids look into the eye of the place where macaws crawl and tortoises fly." Elena says as she groans and puts her hand on her head.

"City of pyramids? That's gotta be Tepet Muul the capital of ancient Maru." Naomi says.

"But what about the rest? Tortoises don't fly, macaws fly. It doesn't make any sense." Gabe says.

"That's what makes it a riddle." Naomi says.

"I just hope Shuriki doesn't figure it out first. I'm going after her." Elena says as she starts to run out of the workshop.

"What! Elena! Man is she fast!" Gabe shouts as they all go after Elena.

*Timeskip*

"Elena your not suppose to leave the palace remember." Gabe says as they catch up to Elena as she prepares to leave.

"But we know where Shuriki's going and she has a head start. The royal guards wouldn't get there in time but me on a jaquin." Elena says.

"You'd have to consult the grand council first." Gabe says.

"She isn't gonna listen Gabe." Alexis says.

"I wonder what kind of powers the scepter of night has?" Mateo asks looking at his book.

"Mateo focus." Gabe says.

"My family's in the kingdom Cordoba firming up our alliance with the king but Naomi's here. What do you think?" Elena asks.

"Uh I'm not sure. Gabe does have a point but so do you." Naomi says.

"I would sure love to get ahold of that scepter and see how it works." Mateo says.

"But it's not the whole scepter it's only the staff. We can wait till the rest of the council is back to discuss this." Gabe says.

"Gabe's right you should stay." Naomi says.
