Jone's POV

I'm just waiting George in front of the shop. All of a sudden, I heard a whomp behind me. I turned around to find the source but I saw nothing instead of tall trees on the fresh green meadow.

I felt disappointed because of an empty found. I looked back and saw nothing! The shop was still here just now, where can it go?

This thing happened too sudden, I don't know what to do next. All I did was just standing on the street, watching the passers-by.

Until a similar voice called me, "Jone, what are you doing here?"

He's George! "Where did you went?" I asked him. "I have the same question too." said George. I explained the whole thing that happened on me. "The strangest is the alchemist and her shop, it just disappear suddenly."

"I think it just an illusion." George frowned. "I'll go ask the other the information about the alchemist, you ask the butcher, he might be hiding the truth from us, we will meet at the water fountain locate at the center of our village half an hour later."

Half an hour later-------------------------------

I was waiting at the fountain and watching many people greeted with me. Without a minute, I saw George walking towards me. "Did you found something?" I asked him urgently. George heave a sigh, "I'd asked some villagers, they told me the alchemist was missing two months ago." "So it is impossible that she will be in this village."

"I wish it just a dream." I said. "The villagers told me that 'there is no such occupation as butcher in the place that we found the butcher thing'".

"S...so, what should w....we do n...next." said George, he was  terrified. "Two options." I suggested. "Face the challenge or refuge."

"......"

George's face was bloodless. He had fainted from terror.

"George!" I shouted. The villagers surronded George to see what was happening. Some of them whispering to the others. Some of them take photographs ( coldblood ). All was in a little bit chaos.

George's POV

I didn't knew what happened. I felt very uncomfortable. It was only pitch black in my sight. I opened my eyes and accommodated the beams. I found out that I was lying in my bed, in my own villa. Jone walked in my room. "Oh, you wake up." He said. "Feel any better?"

"Yes, but what happened?" I asked. "You'd fainted." Jone said. "A villager helped me fetched you home."

"Oh......" I thinked. "I had a good idea."
"About what?" asked Jone. "The missing alchemist." George said.
