The girls trekked through the forest, the mist hanging thickly around them. It was getting difficult to navigate through the close-growing trees. A sudden idea hit Ana.

"Hey Nam?"

"Yes?"

"Mist is made of water right?"

"Yeeah?"

"And you can 'bend' water, right?"

"Yeeeah?"

"Soo..."

"Oh my gosh, guys! I can make us fly!" Namaka turned around, walking back the way she'd come from. Then she spun around, running forwards and waving her hands. Suddenly, she was up in the air, the water swirling around her in the form of fog. She twirled around and before they knew it, the other girls were off the ground, floating up, up, up, then they were flying through the air.

"This... This is, amazing!" Ari closed her eyes, her hair billowing out behind her. As they flew onward, the fog began to thin. The girls dropped a few centimetres, but it was enough to worry Ari.

"Nam, are you sure you can hold us? I don't think I can catch us if we fall."

"Don't worry. I won't let you fall." They continued flying until they saw a speck on the horizon.

"Alright girls, you might want to land soon. I think you might freak out the inhabitants if you fly straight into the middle of the town and say 'hey everyone, were looking for any clues as to where the evil spirit of darkness might be. Any ideas?'"

"That sounds like a good idea."

The girls walked into Glassburn, looking around for any ideas as to where Nerezza might be. As they walked down the street, something caught Nam's attention. Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw a boy looking at her. When she turned to see him, he look away. She thought nothing of it, so continued on. They searched the whole day without luck, so finally decided to book a couple of hotel rooms. The two rooms were across the hall from each other, and the girls quickly settled in.

Sometime through the night, Ana and Fly were woken up by a banging on their door. They opened it to reveal a wide-eyed Nam.

"It's Ari. There's something wrong!"
