At the ladies bathroom, every where was quiet. All of a sudden footsteps and a female voice was heard, "don't worry I'll be right back, hehe" laughter was heard in her
voice.
   At the same time, "Rose, where is this place"
The footsteps got louder... "Quick we have to hide" Rose says urgently
   The door opened and a woman in red gown enters. Her face is flushed and she just dashed into another door in the room.
"So there other doors here how come I didn't see it before" said Josiah not so quietly.
Then the woman came out of the door. "Shhhhhh..... be quiet she going to hear you "cautioned Rose.
The woman turned around and faced them, her head tilted in confusion.
Meanwhile, Rose and Josiah were panicking. The woman could see their body shape "I must be going crazy, there's nothing there" she said shaking her head and she walked out.
"What was that!" Josaih said turning to Rose.
"I don't know maybe her ancestors are related to a magical creature, if not... it's not possible for her to sense us.

When magical creatures still existed with humans some of them married humans causing their descendants to have magic bloodline in them, although nowadays this bloodline is very diluted. It is very rare to find someone like that. That woman just now has a magic bloodline in her but it is very very little.

Crystal-bell went home thinking about what Rose said 'ask your mother and you will know'.
She entered her room and lay on bed staring at the spot where she saw them this morning. In her heart she felt like what Rose and Josiah is saying is true. But... It's just too unbelievable. Magic do not exist.
     She decided to ask her mom. Crystal-bell went to her mom's room. At the door she knocked quietly, scared of what her mom would say.
"Come in!" her mother said. She went in.
"Mom there is something I would like to talk to you about"
  "Ok sweetie, what is it?" asked her Mom. Then Crystal bell told her Mom everything that happened today and asked her "Mom.... do you know what is happening?".
"I did not want to drag you into this but, its time you know the truth of your existence" she held Crystal bell's hand and continued "You know that story I always tell you before you sleep?"
  "yeah?"
"Well... Its real. You are a descendant of Turtlehead. The amulet he told his wife to pass on to his children is that same amulet you wear to school every day". I clutch the amulet around my neck as I struggled not to believe because it just don't make any sense. I mean, its impossible, magic isn't supposed to be real, talk more of magical creatures. Right?
   "Sorry mom, but this is a lot to take in-"
"I know sweetie"
"-but what does this mean to me?"
"You said those people came to you right?. That means you are the  chosen one"
"Chosen for what"
"You see there is a dark elf who need this power that the amulet has to take over elf and human land. This elf is very powerful and if it could make people come find you then I am afraid it has already taken over Elf land.
   You are chosen to destroy this dark elf".
