We followed the orb until we came upon a rope bridge. A troll jumped in front of us form under the bridge as it caught the orb in its hands.
"Hey! That's ours! We can't find the mountain without it."
"Sorry! This is my bridge! Only those who figure out my riddle can pass."
"Okay. What's the riddle?"
"I blow on you when you're outside but you can't hear me or see me unless it's very cold. What am I?"
"Wind!"
"No."
Kasey jumped up and down.
"I got it! I got it! Air?"
"Wait, let me think."
The troll placed his finger on his chin.
"Okay yes you can celebrate. You got it!"
The troll slid to the right.
"You can pass now. Good luck on your Journey.
"Thank you. Think of some tougher riddles, okay?"
"Alright, duly noted."
The troll gave us back the orb.
After we crossed the bridge, we followed it until we came to a fork in the road and it disappeared.
"Great, there's four paths. How do we decide?"
" I think Natasha said it to us before."
'Yeah. You're right. We were just too "I think stupid to know what she meant!"
"Okay. What did she say?"
"You were there. She said it before we left."
"Right. She said to follow the sound of running water." I said.
"Exactly Kaze."
"So how do we apply that to this situation?"
"Just go up to the beginning of each path and just stand and listen to the sounds coming from each path."
Kasey looked at me.
"I'll walk up to the first path. Liana, you can stand between the second and third path."
I walked up the last path.
Liana pointed at the third path.
"I think I hear water coming from that path."
I walked over to the foot of the third path and listened for the water.
"She's right. The waterfalls are this way!"
We all walked down the third path until we saw a waterfall on each side of us.
"Natasha was right. This is the peak/mountain where two waterfalls meet." I said
"If you're right, then where is the stone?" Liana said.
"How am I supposed to know?" I said
Then in the center of the path, I saw a purple rock glowing. I picked it up.
Three red orbs glowed above us in the sky. We all dropped our jaws when they materialized after hitting the ground. In front of us were two blondes and one redhead. The redhead had hazel eyes, and the two blondes were identical twins with blue eyes but one of them was an inch taller than the other.
"I can't believe it . It's Sia and her Minions!"
Sia looked me dead in the eyes.
"I'm here for the stones! Now give them to me!"
"What do you want with these stones?'
"They powered the original rose and they will show us where the new one is."
"I'm sorry Aunt Sia but,"
"What?"
"You three are not the ones destined to become the next servants of the rose."
"If we're not destined for it, then who is?"
"It is said that when the new rose is found it'll choose who will become the new servants of the rose."
"I believe the rose will choose us."
"I don't think the rose would choose power hungry Murders!"
"Power- hungry?"
"Admit it! You three killed Kiplee to get her gift!"
"Only to get better control of her people!"
My eyes widened!
"Kasey these are your Aunts?!"
"Yes."
"So wait, the three people who are out to get the powers of the rose are sisters?"
Liana fake coughed.
"Not surprised!"
"Why?"
"It is because when Natasha and her sisters got their powers they were warned by the enchantress that there would be a group of sisters who would try to kill them for their powers."
