This last spear seems to be the hardest one to find. The whole forest is like a one-way-exit-only-maze. Each turn we take we get deeper and deeper but we get no where at the same time!

"Hey, I think we should go this way!" advised Tom pointing north-west.

"No, no, no. We already went that way!" argued Yedana "See this is the same tree we passed few minutes ago."

"How do you know that!" challenged Tom after glancing at the tree she was pointing at.

"I just do," Yedana shrugged

"Anyway, I think we should go this way!" she argued pointing north-east.

"No, no, no!" countered Tom. I sat down and clutched my head in my hands as Yedana and Tom bickered back and forth until I just couldn't take it anymore.

"SILENCE!" I boomed on the top of my lungs. Even the birds stopped chirping. Then I took a deep breath before talking again.

"I just need to meditate for a while, so if you can just please be quiet that will be very much appreciated!" I said sharply but much calmer. And saying that I went over and sat underneath a tree as Yedana and Tom watched in silence. I criss-crossed my legs and folded my hands onto my lap. And closing my eyes I took in the peaceful forest air. In. Out. In. Out. As I inhaled and exhaled, I rid my mind from all negativity, clearing my mind, and making it way easier to think. My headache seemed to have now gone and I was able to connect with my surroundings. I could practical feel my magic once again, coursing through my veins. It felt good to have a new refreshed spirit than a troubled and discombobulated one. I slowly open my eyes. Ahhh. I can practically feel the magic in the air. It's time to continue our journey.

"Get up you two!" I told them walking straight ahead "We're going into the very heart of the forest." Yedana and Tom scrambled to get up, and we all walked straight into the forest.

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

"We been walk for hours! Can't we stop for just a little bit!" whined Yedana.

"Yeah, my feet are hurting, my back is aching, my hands are cramping up from moving all these branches, and I have a splitting headache!" complained Tom. 'Is there anywhere else on your body that you want to complain is aching?' I thought sharply 'Maybe your mouth is from talking!' I took a deep breath to control my anger.

"Just keep walking guys," I encouraged "We're getting closer. I can feel it in my bones!"

"UHH!!!" they groaned loudly.

"Plus, we only been walking for a few minutes, Yedana." I added a bit irritated.

"But it feels like forever!" she groaned dramatically. 'Forever is a long time,' I thought to myself.

"You know what I'm talking about!" yelled Yedana suddenly and exasperatedly. Tom and I both looked at her like she's gone crazy.

"Uh Yedana," I began cautiously "Who are you talking to?"

"Why you of course!" she answered like it was obvious.

"I didn't say anything." I answered truly confused.

"Yeah you did!" she said-no, screamed- wildly "You asked 'What feels like forever.'

"I did." I blurted out utterly confused. I looked at Tom and he shook his head no, and then shrugged.

"Maybe we should sit down for a while," I suggested slowly as I lowered myself and Yedana onto the forest floor.

"Good idea," Tom said sitting down beside Yedana.

"Want some water to drink?" he asked offering her the water bottle he slipped out of Yedana's pack.

"I swear I'm not going crazy," Yedana said sighing, and clutching her head in her hands.

"Of course you're not!" said a high-pitched voice cheerfully "'Cause I'm the one that asked the question!"

"Ahh!" we all said as we jumped back and held our hand in front of us in defense. Right in front of us was a sparkly yellow-orangey colored light that was zooming around in mid-air!

"Hi! My name is Curiosity! What's your name? Where did you come from? How old are you? Are you humans? Why are you here? Did you come here to see us? Are you secretly fairies? Oh! Do you have certain powers? Or are you a pixie? No, your all too big to be pixies? Wait! Are you from the fairy counsel? Ooh. My sister's in the fairy counsel. Do you know who my sister is? I bet you've heard of her! Did you know she's a guardian fairy? Oh! Are you a guardian fairy? Are you here to give us a message? Do you even know why you're here?" the figure question rapidly. When she landed on a nearby branch on the tree we were backed up against to. She had flaming red hair that was shaped into a pixie cut, and she wore a fiery patterned orange and yellow sleeveless dress (sort of like the one that Tinkerbell wears). She had a a decorated orange question mark tattooed on her right arm. She had sparkly bright light yellow wings that were shaped like a butterfly's and she used them to zoom around in the air. Her eyes were a chocolate brown that burned with curiosity.

"Curiosity!" called another deep female voice "Stop questioning our guests. I mean look at them! They're petrified!" joked the same voice. Two more fairies came into view.

The tallest one-or the one that was just talking- had night blueish hair that was let down and was so long that it reached up to her ankles. She wore a a sky blue and baby blue morphed dress that was shaped like a flower that stopped just a little bit above her knees, with a navy blue jeggings that were like capris. She also wore a jeans jacket on top of her dress. She had her night blue hair tied back in a high ponytail from where her wavy hair ran smoothly down her back. Her wings were a sparkly bright light blue. She had bright blue eyes that seemed to show wisdom way beyond the common understanding of any being.

The second one was slightly smaller than the blue haired fairy but slightly taller than our Curious George fairy. She wore a simple but beautiful green dress that had jagged lines (like the tips of leaves) at the hem of the dress, at the arms of the sleeves, and at the neckline. It also had a belt made from white flowers at the waist. She had her dark, chocolate brown hair back in a simple braid that reached her ankles and a big white flower on the top right side of her hair. Her wings were a sparkly bright light green. She had forest green eyes that were full of care, honesty, sincerity, and generosity.

"I'm really sorry for the way my sister is acting," the brown haired fairy apologized "She is just full of curiosity, just like her name."

"I'm so sorry," Curiosity told us before standing beside her sisters.

"Hello," the blue haired fairy greeted us "My name is Sensibility. This is my sister, Integrity,"

"Hi," greeted the brown haired fairy.

"-And this is our youngest sister, Curiosity that you unfortunately had the chance of meeting a few minutes ago." introduced Sensibility jokingly.

"Hi!" said Curiosity excitedly.

"So I see that your the current Dite." said Sensibility kindly.

Author's Note: SURPRISE! TWO CHAPTERS IN ONE DAY!! YAY!!!! HAha :D Anyway, I felt bad because I didn't upload in a loooooooooooooooong time. Trust me, I know how it feels when an author leaves you hanging and then doesn't upload for a while (THE PAIN......IT'S REAL!). I'll try to sketch the faires for you lovelies to give you a better picture but I don't know when I scan you will be able to see it. I tried to scan a sketch of the cover that I drew, but when I scanned it, it didn't come out very well because the light was very bright and the drawing was light. (I'm sorry! I can't draw darker!). The cover had Tom, Cynthia, Yedana, Geat Grandma Alice, Raider,a mountain (You know the Saubhagya Mountains from the begining of the book) and a tiger(I was really proud of the tiger, it didn't look like a blob like I thought it would look. It looked like a tiger. I was pretty proud!). But I hope that the image of Curosity I made using a fairy creater was some help *shruggs suggestingly*. There's only Curosity because I forget how to upload more than one picture. If someone knows, please, PLEASE, PLEASE tell me through the comment section! I NEED TO KNOW! Anyway, I hope you like these two chapters, Thank you, Wish me good luck, and vote, comment, and wait for the next update!
