Adventure for Fortune

Homesick

Chapter 3

*Marina POV*

We've been gone from home for a long time now. I had no idea how to get back home, I was missing my parents, and most importantly, I WANTED TO GO HOME! I missed my home, my mom, dad, the sweet smell of fresh bread in the oven, the bright moon at night coming from my window.

Almost every night, I either have a nightmare, or can't go to sleep. When I don't sleep at night, I pretend to be asleep in the morning so Elise and Eileen don't find out.

One morning, I finally got the courage to promise myself that I was going to tell Eileen EVERYTHING.

I was nervous as I walked up to her. "What's up?" She asked me cheerfully. "I need to talk to you about something" I said shyly. "About what?" She asked. I gulped, took a deep breath and said, "I just want to go home! I mean, I haven't been able to sleep or anything because I'm so worried. Do you even know the way back? We've been here for quite a while, and we haven't even found 10$ yet!" " calm down!" She said. "We are leaving tonight. Lia told me that there was this very guy that leaves in this very tall mountain. People say that it is where the mountain meets the moon. Anyway, he offers a big 1 wish to the person that can get up there. He has lived forever! He only does this every 99 years, and this year is one of them. But, we have to collect a few things that we have to give to him."

She stopped to rest and said, "a ribbon from the king of Moonlight City, a flower from the Liu forest, a fruit from the Jungle of monkeys, a cup of water from the Jade River, and a bag filled with sweets. Lia baked the bag of sweets for us."

'How are we suppose to get all of that?'

Now I was super worried. Even if we did get all of that stuff, it would take weeks, months even.I was freaking out.

*Eileen POV*

By saying that, I think that I only made her even more worried. I know that because of the look on her face. Also because of what she was doing. "HOW ON EARTH ARE WE SUPPOSE TO GET ALL OF THAT STUFF?!?!?" She screamed while running around the room. I tried to calm her down, but it was no use. "Listen Marina, it's going to be fine. Just calm down ok. The good thing is that we will be rich at the end. Right?" Suddenly, she started crying. "I'm sorry! I'm just scared!" I carried her and said, "don't worry, I'm scared too. We're all scared."

*Elise POV*

After hearing/spying on them, I got worried. Not about the collecting, but about the mountain.

If it really was where the mountain meets the moon, then it would take forever to climb up there.

Oh well.

I just hoped for the best.
