 "We are here, the Gaunlet Guardian fortress," exclaimed Steve. They walked in, looking for a fountain of some shorts. The statue room looked different. There were furnaces next to each statue and a trophy in the middle. "A forge appeared once we tried to look for the Gems. That is weird. I think the Gem of calm goes in the blue furnace, the gem of fury goes in the red furnace, the gem of darkness goes into the green furnace, and the gem of light goes in the yellow furnace," exclaimed Oxin. They looked around for the fountain once more, but couldn't find it anywhere. "Ugh, I'm done. We looked for all the gems, my brother died, and Alex died, and now we traveled all this way for the last gem, but the fountain isn't even here. We are going to lose anyway. Goliath has a whole army that has his powers. That is impossible to defeat," replied Steve as he sat against the wall. "Steve, there is still one glimmer of hope somewhere! I found glowing water over here!" exclaimed Hazel. Steve followed Hazel, and they found the glowing water. "That light must be the Gem!" exclaimed Steve. Steve jumped into it without thinking and teleported somewhere different. "Guys! Steve jumped into this magical water thinking the next Gem was in there. We got to go after him!" exclaimed Hazel as she jumped in too.

 They all appeared in a strange cave with a stream leading somewhere. Steve peeked behind some rocks that were covering the rest of the stream, and then, he saw the most jaw-dropping thing in his life. It was a beautiful oasis hidden under the ground with a fancy old fountain right in the middle with glowing water bubbling inside. "This was hidden under the ground the whole time?" asked Hazel as she stared at this pretty paradise. There was a hole in the ceiling with the moon shining right in the middle of it upon the fountain. "This must be it! The fountain!" exclaimed Steve. "Now it says we have to drop everything we worked hard for into the fountain," exclaimed Bandor. Steve stared down into the fountain. He couldn't see an end. "this is an endlessly deep fountain. I'm not sure if we should drop all of the Gems in. we may never get them back to save the world," replied Steve. "it might be a test. To see if you are worthy to do anything to save the world if you have to lose the things you lost. "I say listen to the book. It hadn't let us down yet,' replied Oxin. "I think you are right. Ok. Here goes," exclaimed Steve. He tossed the Gem of Calm into the fountain, then the Fury gem, then the darkness. Suddenly, little white particles floated out of the fountain, rising towards the sky, suddenly, lightning struck the tip of the fountain.

  Alex and Leo did appear floating around the fountain and then disappeared.  "I just saw Alex and Leo!" exclaimed Steve. Suddenly, Steve felt a tap on his shoulder. Leo and Alex were back! "Your alive!?" asked Steve "Yes, and this isn't a hollow gram," replied Leo. "The heavens must've returned Alex and Steve from the dead!" exclaimed Oxin, I the book it said the last shall be first, and the first shall be last in the eyes of the spirits and souls. You guys are more important than power," exclaimed Oxin. "I still have every Gem!" exclaimed Alex as she passed the Gems back to Steve. Leo handed Steve a book. "It says something about re-directing the juice in each waterway towards the fountain to give it more power since it got weak over the years Goliath has been engulfing the world with darkness," exclaimed Leo. "Then I think it will give you the Gem of Light!" replied Erick. They looked around for these things called power sources hidden around the oasis. "I think I found one," exclaimed Bandor. Steve looked around it for a switch or key. "I think you have to use water from the fountain and fill it up with water," exclaimed Alex.  Steve summoned water with the gem of calming, and filled up the source. Suddenly, white particles twinkled towards the fountain, bursting it with blue power. "One source down!" exclaimed Steve. 

  The looked everywhere for the next one. "Found it. Steve, fill it with water," exclaimed Hazel. Stev used his Gem once again, and the fountain exploded up with blue magic. "One more to go, "exclaimed Leo. They found the last one, and Steve used the Gem of Calmness to fill it with water. Then, water sprinkled everywhere, and then lightning struck down from the hole onto the fountain and the world time changed very fast. Day and night switched speedily, and, the Gem of Light fell from the sky, and landed in front of Steve. "The last Gem! We got it!" shouted Steve. "Now we have to go back to that forge to form the Divinity Gem to power on the Caster's gauntlet. But the real question is, how do we get out of here?" asked Alex. Suddenly, water appeared from underneath them, and they teleported back into the forge. "Ok. So we put the Calm into the blue furnace, right?" asked Steve. "Yes," exclaimed Bandor. Steve put it in, and water flowed into a pipe connected to the trophy. Next, Steve walked over to the Red furnace and placed the Gem of Fury into it. Lava flowed into a pipe connecting to the trophy. then he put the Gem of darkness into the green furnace forming rocks, rolling down the pipe connected to the trophy. Last, but not least, he put the light into the yellow furnace, and light appeared into the pipe connected to the trophy.

 "Nothing happened yet," exclaimed Erick. Suddenly, the room flashed with lightning, darkness, and fire surrounding them, water sprinkling everywhere, and then, the Divinity gem was formed. "No we need the gauntlet," exclaimed Leo. "We can form our own Caster's gauntlet out of pure quenched gold," exclaimed Alex. They melted gold from nearby chests. They formed a glove for the gauntlet, and then, Steve put the Gem on to it. "Let's go defeat Goliath!" shouted Steve.
