"It means that , we met near the king's tent . One of the biggest in the village ." Em said reading the interpretation .
"Hey! What's this ?" Em asked suddenly noticing a few words below those lines .
"EREH SI EHT EULC !" Em said , quizzicaly .
"What are you waiting for ? Translate it ! You are not going to wait until the next product of Lakmè comes out are you ?" Barbra said still applying foundation .
Em began translating .
"Anything else you know about Lapiz Lazuli ?" Em asked as she translated .
"No , nothing else ." Barbra said
"It doesn't make any sense !" Em said she sounded weary .
"What doesn't ?" Boo asked
"These words they make no sense ." Em said .
There was a knock at the door , Em opened to find Ed leaning on the wall .
"Come in , Ed " Em said
Ed came in and the girls filled him in with what they had discovered and what they needed to .
Em sat on her knees on the floor and Ed sat on the couch . The Journal was the glass table and Barbra sat opposite Ed on Em's right . She still held the compact in her hand .
"Boo move the mirror , it's reflecting the light and I can't see !" Ed said putting his hands over his eyes .
Boo kept the mirror on the table .
"It doesn't make sense !" Em said sounding defeated .
Edward's eyes fell on the mirror and he picked it up .
"Maybe it does ...." Ed said look at the Journal with the mirror .
"See !" Ed exclaimed .
"Oh My Gosh ! It says 'Here is the Clue '" Em said her eyes going so wide that it looked as if it would pop out .
"So basicaly Dr.Perseus means that our first clue is where Lady Carrie Darth and the Young Man met !" Edward said realisation hitting him .[PUT IT INFRONT OF THE MIRROR]
"So we have to find the tent of the King to find where they met !" Em said .
Ed switched on the computer and google searched 'King Fernandez's tent' .
"It says that King Fernandez had a huge tent in San Francisco but it was destroyed before the American Civil War to build Fort Point to protect San Francisco which is now a national historical site ." Edward read .
"So is there anything near it like a shop or something ?" Barbra asked .
"Umm the only shop that is near it is a clock shop and an antique shop ." Edward said scanning through the pictures .
"You guys ! Look there is a piece of paper sticking out of the book !" Emilia said .
She picked it up . It had the same wierd symbol which had a D with an M looped in it that was there on the book . The paper was torn and was crumpled . It had words that read 'Do not waste me for I fly by , You shall need me to unlock the key .'"I think this is our next clue ! Um I think this tells us which shop we must go to !" Em said .
"Do antiques fly ?" Barbra asked with wide eyes .
"No they don't and neither do clocks !" Em said with a serious tone she wondered what Dr.Perseus meant .
"But Time does !" Ed exclaimed ," Look at it this way we must not waste time and as we have heard 'Time and Tide wait for no man '...... so ....flies " Edward started mumbling .
"Get to the point Ed ! Quit the mumbling !" Emilia said she was frusterated .
"The answer is time , it flies by and one must not waste it . And what tells us the time ? A clock ! So its the clock shop we are looking for ." Edward said .
"Okay , so grab jacket , we're off to the clock shop !" Emilia said .
"But ..." Barbra began .
"No , you are comming right now !" Emilia said. She pulled Barbra who had a scowl on her face and was now in a grumpy mood .
Bera and Em sat at the back and Edward sat in the drivers seat he was the only one in the trio who knew how to drive . Em was learning how to drive and Barbra being herself decided not to 'strain' her ankles and toe nails which she had apparently painted in the parlour .
"Eeeekkkkk!" Bera exclaimed . She was pointing to a snail that was near the window .
"It's a snail , Bera ." Emilia said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world .
"Oh" Bera said and Em chuckled . She realised what she said .
"Don't you think I know that !" Bera said . .
"Um no ?" Emilia said .
"Why not ?" Bera asked furious at the thought that her friend did not think that she knew what a snail was . Em shrugged as a reply .
"Snails are creppy with two horns and are slimy ." Bera said .
"Yeah . And you better sit there before I push you in ." Emilia said .
"Ufff !" Edward said as he got out of the car went into the backseat , picked up the snail and placed it on a pot of flowers near by .
"There !" he said ," Now get in "
Both girls got in each with a different expression . Bera had a smirk in her eyes and a scowl on her face where as Emilia had a scowl in her eyes and a smirk on her face she loved teasing Bera . Though she did not like it when Ed interfiered .
The car ride was smooth and quiet , none of them spoke .
Edward parked the car just beside the antique shop .
Just as they stepped out of the car out came a man from the antique shop .
He wore a lense with a few gems around it . The man had a beard in a french style . He had piercing grey eyes and a long nose .
"Bonjour!" The man said .
"Bonjour!" Edward said imitating the man .
"Are you h're to buy antique ?" The man asked .
"Uh , no sir we came to buy a clock ." Emilia said .
"V have ze clocks ." The man said .
"No thank you ." Barbra said as she dragged Emilia and Edward from the car to the clock shop .
"How did you manage that ?" Emilia asked .
"I have my ways ." Barbra said as she pulled them into the clock shop .
The clock shop had the name 'Bruno's Clock' . As they opened the door there was the ring of a bell , inside were a collection of several different clocks from different era . There were quiet a few grandfather clocks .
"Um excuse me ?" Emilia asked . There seemed to be no one .
Suddenly the chair in coner of the room moved and to the light came a small man with a wristwatch on his hand that particularly shone brightly . He looked old with his grey hair and glasses .
"Hello ! May I help you?" The man asked .
"Excuse me sir ....." Edward began .
"Horace . I'm Horace Mulibarenton , I own this shop . How may I help you ?" Horace asked eyeing each one of them with a curious eye it was as if he was examining them of their personality .
Edward saw through that decided to play it wise .
"We came to see the shop sir." He said . The others looked at him confused but decided to play along .
"Ah , I could shop you a few clocks if you like ." Horace said .
"Yes please ." Emilia responded with a smile which Horace returned without hesitation .
"This is a clock of the 1990's......" the man began as he lead them around the shop .
"Wow ! You seem to have quiet a collection." Edward remarked .
"How long have you owned this ?" Barbra asked still in awe at the number of clocks .
"Oh its been a while . I guess 50 years would be close enough ." Horace said .
"Do you suppose you know a man named Perseus ?" Edward asked looking at Horace intently . Horace snapped at that name he seemed to have a distant look in his eyes .
"Pals we were , knew 'em since school . Very bright he was , I too was but me Mum and Pop had no money to school me . Famine came and me family starved it did . He 'elped me family even gave me a shop in land 'e bough'. But killed 'im they did no one knows who , the police gave up they did . I remember clearly 'ow he gave me and el police came y hablar 'e murdered ." Horace said tears rolling down his eyes . To an outsider what he said must have made no sense but to Barbra , Ed and Em it did .
"I'm sorry sir . But do you know why they killed him ?"
"For tha' blas'ed thing o' course ." Horace said .
"Do you think you have something to give us sir ?" Emilia asked handing Horace the torn piece of paper.
"Maybe I do ....."-----------___________%________%______----
