AMANDA'S POV~

I watched as Kevin shoved pancakes down his throat. After his 4th one he gulped for air.

"Slow down Kevin! Ok I think we are done with breakfast!" I exclaim.

I grab his plate and put it in the sink. He whines like a baby for about 10 minutes till I push him towards the drivers seat.

"I don't wike you Amanda." he pouts

"Suck it up ya big baby." I tease

He mutters to himself as he starts the RV.

************************************

2 hours later I get up and walk over to Kevin.

"How much longer? Are we there yet? can you go faster??" I complain

"Well now your the baby. Haha!! Anywhere we are here." he laughs again at my childish behavior

"We are at a gas station... Ok you have officially lost your mind!"

"No I read online this is where we are suppose to go. And you know, the Internet is always true." he smirks

"Ugh fine."

I say as I grab my hiking boots and tie them extra tightly on. You never know what could be in there...

Kevin locks the RV as we walk towards the gas station. It seems to be abandoned. As we walk in the door creaks loudly and shuts fast with a loud thud.

I look around to see if anyone is there. I see no one... NO ONE! Where's Kevin?!

In the middle of my panic attack I hear two quiet voices. I walk slowly towards the noise. There was Kevin talking to an old man rocking in a rocking chair with a worn out straw hat fixed upon his head.

"Well there's the little lady you were talkin bout! Don't be shy." he says as he motions me over.

Slowly I walk over and stand behind Kevin with my hands holding his back.

"Sorry she IS shy." Kevin says

"Ahh it's ok" The man says

I slowly loosen my hold on Kevin's back and walk next to him.

" So you want to find the Faberstone? It's a very hard stone to find. Good luck." he says and with that he pulls a lever reveling a dark cave.

Several insects crawl out of the cave as if they we in a hurry.

"Oh your gonna need these. They have food, water, and lots of gadgets and a sword" he throws two backpacks at us.

"Wait why do we need a sword?" Kevin asks

"Oh there are things protecting the Faberstone. Horrible things that most humans can't even imagine. Its eyes like the pits of Hell. it's breath like a decaying beast. it's claws like Diamond swords. The only way to kill it is to stick the sword thru its right eye." he said as if he were telling a scary story to children.

We have fear written across our face as we enter the cave. Right before we were out of ear shot the man called to us.

"I forgot to tell you, the gadgets will do everything for you. Just attach them to your hand and think of a weapon and it will act as if it were it. Good luck again bye!" he said.

It was getting really dark so we attached a gadget. I thought of a flashlight and a light beam shone from it. Kevin did the same.

Suddenly I stopped. I was thinking of our kiss when I also thought of curse.
