Momo bounced around the empty room. It was quite big for her, well... everything is technically too big for her but that's not the case! Audelia and TK went to go find a few things for Momo. They said it was a surprise so all the peach could do was roll around and brainstorm. She looked out of the window towards the trees. She wonders if there was an empty nest in one of them....

After several minutes, the peach got fed up waiting for the two beings and hopped out of her new room into the silent hallway. She hopped and hopped, looking at the closed doors curiously but decided not to invade any. That was until she saw a flash of light under one of the doors.

The door was different from the others. Its usual cream color was instead dark with markings that felt familiar to the fruit. Flashes of blue, green, and red shined for several seconds before disappearing. Momo grasped the handle with her mouth, opening the door.

The room was dark, luckily Momo's eyes were like a cat's and adjusted quickly. It was a bedroom from the looks of it. The curtains were shut tight, forbidding any light to bring the room to life. Then there was the flash again, much brighter this time. Momo nervously shuffled to the cracked door and peered inside.

A hooded figure poured a thick liquid into a large brewing pot and mixed the solution with a ridiculously large spoon. The figure began chanting ancient words that again sounded oddly familiar to Momo. When the chanting was done, the figure sprinkled a powder into the pot and bright light, brighter than the last lights, exploded in the room. Momo closed her eyes involuntarily, her eyes making sure it won't go blind from the intense light.

"What are YOU doing here?" Momo's eyes snapped open and looked up at the figure who now had its stare on her. She whimpered and cowered.

"I-I just s-saw a-a-a bright light a-and I wanted to know w-what it was." the fruit stuttered.

"Curious or not. You had no right to just go into a room without permission." the witch scolded coldly.

"Now, I would like for you to..." the witch stretched her arms out, her caped made it look like she had extra hands. She bellowed "LEAVE!!" the solution in the pot exploded, causing red fog to appeared around the woman. She looked as if she was the devil himself.

The poor fruit screamed and rolled out of the room and bounced out one of the open windows in the hall.
