      "Hm.." Skye hummed, squinting her eyes as she looked around the unfamiliar area. The damsel was just going for a walk around the nature fairy kingdom, but it seemed she had gotten a teensy bit lost. She KNEW she shouldn't have taken that shortcut, it had messed the whole thing up. It smelt terrible over here, and it also looked terrible. Was she in a swamp or something? That's what it looked like.

   Cayden Flies around Amaranthos Kingdom, looking around the place as his 2 wings flap around. The clouds get foggy, he slaps it away but it keeps getting worse. He goes down to the kingdom but got lost, he looks at the place where he stood and was scared. Looking back, knowing that there might be a creature up ahead.

   He began to walk as he hears strange noises, he kept looking back cause it was getting darker and darker. He noticed that he lost his bag and then thinking of going to get it back, since he heard strange creepy noises he decided not to. "Uhh.. hello?" Cayden's responded to whatever was out there.

   Moments later he stumbled upon a swamp, looking at the water, dirty. He walks around the lake, but he kept on hearing some sounds coming from some direction. He tried not to listen to it knowing that it might come towards him and kill him.

    Iris was originally supposed to be making her way to the green lagoon since she's never visited there before, even though she's lived in the Nature Kingdom her entire life. But somehow, trying to make her way to the lagoon, she stumbled upon something else. She was already sweating from trying to fly there, so she started running on her own two feet instead. Though, when she thought she finally made it, something was off. Very off. This wasn't the green lagoon, this looked more like a swamp.
     ''..What's this..?'' She muttered, finally slowing down in her tracks when she saw the swamps. It wasn't even the fact that she lost track that got her nervous, it was the smell. It absolutely reeked. She covered her nose with her palm, an almost disgusted look laced across her face. ''God.. where even am I.'' She mumbled under her breath, finally glancing up and taking in her surroundings.

    Lumine had been flying in the area for a bit. She had realised a while ago that she was lost, but she didn't want to worry herself to much. She slowed down the speed of her flying as she landed down near she noticed her surroundings looked something like.. A swamp? She looked around and covered her nose only smelling the air from this moment. It was horrible.


       Like every morning, Notus went for their daily flight in a realm. Today happened to be the Amaranthos Kingdom, one that they liked. Slowly and steadily, they enjoy the greens, browns and at times blues that merge together in their flight. However, this sightseeing was suddenly interrupted by a peculiar noise. Upon closer inspection, it seemed to be a swamp! They hurriedly went down to learn more about it.

        Asteria fled through the Nature Kingdom's woods for the first time. The fae listened to the short and calm breeze from up there. The harmonious melody was interrupted abruptly by some unknown noise. She descends to the ground, hoping to find the source of the peculiar sound.

Amaranthos is the nature realm of fairies and known for its stunning beauty. For it is covered with beautiful landmarks, features and as well as their fairies. Colourful flowers which decorated the land, forests gathered together and just a magnificent feeling which soared across the country. However in the midst of the land of beauty, for a disgusting swamp, home to unknown creatures lies in the dark. Strange rustling and hissing sounds can be heard faintly within the dark vines and trees. Sounds of water splashing around, mud clapping against the trees and the slight sound of faint wind...
This catches the attention of the surrounding fairies, making them gather up together


      There seemed to be a lot of other fairies, she noticed. What a nice coincidence. Fiddling with the end of her dress, she begun to approach the others, soaking the end of her skirt and her shoes with the dirty swamp water. "Urk..." she muttered, glancing down at her legs. The wind fae certainly is going to clean that when she gets home.

   He looks at the water again picking some water up, as he saw more fairies there. "Oh.. uhh.." he puts back the water as he splashed it back on to the water, mud still covering his hands. "Oh, sh.." He wipes it off with wipes .

    While Lumine had been taking a long around she had heard the sound of faint hissing, to make sure she was safe she was just gonna take a teeny tiny look around. She walked around the area of the swamp as her head turned side to side almost as if she was looking for something. While she was looking she had saw some faeries gathering nearby and went to follow along.

     Her ears perked up, hearing the sound of rustling and hissing. She could feel goosebumps running down her spine, shivering as she got more afraid by the second. But nothing showed up yet, so she wasn't too worried just yet. Iris spotted some other fairies, some wind, some water. She approached the other faes, holding onto the bottom of her dress, before speaking up a bit. ''Uh..''

       The first thought that came to mind was to leave their classmates behind, surely they would figure whatever this was together? However, the more they thought, the more this idea was beginning to sound worse. "Sounds like there's something going on, any clues?"

        The blue-haired fae wasn't taking precautions for her surroundings well enough. In fact, she ran into a tree. She was rushing to the location where the noises were. It was then that the girl saw the place. It seems like some fairies were already on site.

       "Heya," Skye said, giving a small smile as she greeted the unknown faes. Well, not unknown, she knew one or two of them. She wondered why she was staying here, opposed to just leaving the eerie swamp. Maybe she was just curious, an adrenaline junkie. It would be fun to find out what the thing that was making those sounds is. 

     ''Eh, hey. Does anyone know what's going on here?'' She raised her eyebrows, though she was trying to figure out if anyone had a clue what was going on. At this point she didn't even want to make it to the green lagoon, she just wanted to make it home.
