Ianite's P.O.V                  

                  - It's here. - Mianite pointed to a wide path leading into the Twilight forest.

                  - I didn't even see it, - I gasped and let go of Sparklez's hand as he got out his rapier.

                  - It really blends in! - Amelia jumped next to me, obviously excited about going in the forest. A groan came from the trees, and Tom, being in front of the group, rushed in the forest and killed the zombie.

                  - That's.. scary. - Guard Tom shrugged, pulling his sword closer to him.

                  - Nothin' to worry about, I'll clear the path for y'all! - Syndicate shouted in his British accent, hitting another zombie and seeing it fall down in the purple-y grass. He grinned, while another zombie approached him from behind, which got slayed by Sonja's shiny sword.

                   - Nothin' to worry about, eh? - Sonja teased him and laughed, slaying a creeper, who was about to explode. As we were going more in to the forest, we save stranger and stranger mobs, attacking us with more damage and having more health. Guard Tom hid in the back of the group, saying that this was "too dangerous for him". I started flying above them (which was the only magic power I could use in this forest), looking if there was any big danger for them further on.

                    - For how long we'll have to go? - I asked, landing on the ground. We had been going for around two and a half hours. The heroes were going a bit off the trail, looking at the trees who were growing here. Amelia was telling something to Evan and Carter, while my Luke was fighting off the mobs further on the path.

                     - Approximately two days, if my calculations are right and we will find Dianite. - Mianite replied.

                     - When will we get food? - Tucker asked, taking an interesting looking leaf and going back to the path.

                     - Don't you worry, when we will reach one place, we will eat there. - Mianite smiled and waved the massive map in his hand.

                      - Will this be alright? - Mianite asked, looking at his work. He'd made us all beds out of soft leaves on the ground.

                      - Yeah, it'll be good. - Sparklez answered, throwing his armor next to his pile of leaves. The metal shined and mirrored the fire lit in the middle of our camp. The night had come fully, and I layed on my "bed", and realised how comfy it was. He must've used some magic to make it comfortable for us. I sat up and looked at the others who were sitting around the bonfire and chatting about something. The crisp, cold air made blood run down to my cheeks and I massaged them with my warm hands.

                      - Well, this is nice. - Sparklez sighed, laying down on his bed, which was next to mine.

                      - That's true. My brother always has everything planned. - I admitted, looking at him. He had his eyes closed, his red glasses slid a bit down from his nose, and I couldn't help but smile. I wanted to capture this moment, take it with my hands and put it somewhere, where I could go and feel it again. But I knew it was impossible. No magic could capture time. But I didn't care.

                       Time passed by as the moon rised higher and higher. The air became colder, until we all had to be buried in the leaves. For some reason, I couldn't sleep.  I just closed my eyes and acted like I was asleep. I thought about what we will do tommorow; what will happen when we will find Dianite, if we ever will. I was scared. I was scared from what I'll see. I was scared from my own brother, and not the first time. I had asked Mianite what they were arguing about, but he just ignored me.
