//Flashback//
I was drowing. Water was entering my lungs as I tried to fight for my life, but I knew I wouldn't survive this. My blurred vision turned dark as I felt two arms grasping me and a powerful blue light shining.
A few hour later, as I was told, I woke up in a bed. The room looked fancier than the room I used to have on my ship. My ship... HARRY!
I suddenly rose, scaring the two ladies that were in the room with me. One quickly left and came back with a tall girl with pure white hair. The stone she wore was what I saw before. But the other women wore similar stones as well. They exited the room, leaving me with the white haired girl. She was beautiful.
**My name is Kida. I am the Princess of Atlantis.**
**Atlantis? The Lost City?**
**Indeed.** She said looking down trying to hold back her pain as she continued speaking.
**Your name is Calista Jane, am I right?**
**That's my full name. I usually go by CJ but where is my brother? How did I get here?**
**You and your brother will be reunited again, I assure you. But he needs to follow a different path. One of his own and eventually he will get here, back to you.**
**But why?**
**Your brother has a destiny to fulfil. He will meet our Saviour and together they will save us all. Something great is coming. And when  the time comes, he and his friends will do the right thing.**
I got up wanting to leave but Kida noticed what I was trying to do and grabbed me by the arm.
**I know you don't know me and that it's too much to ask. But please, have faith in me. You'll see your brother again.**

**CJ? Are you alright?** The girls were left in the camp with Mal sleeping while Uma and Harry left so they could talk in private.
**Yea. I'm fine.** But Kida knew her better. She placed a hand on CJ's.
//Flashback//
A few months later the young pirate and princess were getting closer. **CJ wait for me!!** Young Kida yelled at her friend who was running towards the stone machines. The two girls decided to go around the city and discover a hiding spot for the two of them to share. A place where they could go and no one would know of.
**Come on! I'm faster than you!** CJ laughed. She looked behind but her friend was gone.
**What the..WHAT?!** She turned and Kida was standing right next to the machines.
**Are you really faster than me, huh?** Kida was the one laughing now.
**How did you do that??**
**I ran.**
**Oh, come on..**
The two girls powered the machines and started searching for the perfect hiding spot. Something went wrong with Kida's stone necklace as it's glow suddenly disappeared and she machine stopped working. She was now falling from a high altitude but caught an old tree's branch. The worse part was that the ground was replaced by a lava lake.
**CJ!!!** Kida cried of fear.
CJ was standing next to the tree motioning for Kida to jump but she was too scared.
**I can't!**
**You have to. Do you trust me?**
The princess looked into the young pirate's eyes and confessed.
**Yes. Yes, I trust you.**
**Then jump. I'll catch you.**
The girl jumped and CJ caught her by the waist and used all her force to pull her into the machine. They found the nearest solid ground and landed.
**Thank you!** She hugged her.
**Promise we stick together!**
**I promise!**
**I will always catch you.** CJ smiled and they both knew from that day on that the two of them will take care of each other no matter what.
//End of flashback//
**What happened?**
**I don't know. It's the feeling that something bad is on its way.**
Kida took her friend in a tight hug.
**It's gonna be alright. Remember? We'll have each other's backs no matter what.** Her smile was genuine and what CJ needed to comfort her.
Harry and Uma returned and Bell ran towards Mal jumping on her body trying to wake her up as she eventually did.
All of them were awake but not aware of the next trial.
**Uuh..guys?! What's going on?**
Uma pointed towards the night sky. The stars were fading and the sky looked like a complete black ceiling.
**This is definitely giving me chills.** Kida stated.
Harry held Mal's hand but she let go of it as she saw a path lit by blue flames appear in front of them. She took her bag and the Ember and entered the path followed by her friends. They entered a big cave that held an entire lake surrounded by rocks and sand. There was one more opening that led to complete darkness.
They heard a siren voice that was coming from within the waters and their attention was drawn just enough for an army of knights to show up with their swords ready for battle.
Blood to blood and soul to soul
Together this was done
And only together can it be undone.
The voice was chanting while the 5 friends made a circle drawing their swords starting the fight.
