I dedicate this book to Renada Riggins, my sister. She was the most amazing sister I have had in my life time. She wanted to be an Equine Veterinarian. She had passed June 11, 2015. She is/was my role model no matter what happened to her or the animals. I miss her so much. I will always love her no matter what is going on.

February 17, 1998-June 11, 2015

In Loving Memory

Renada Riggins

Welcome to Ponitopia. Where all Super animals are welcome. My name is Dusty Vision. You may call me Vizzie. My Original name was Kudonnakin. I am a Cremello Solid Paint Horse. I have no siblings. I don’t know any of my powers. I live in a 2-story brick house with my mom and my dad. My mom and dad said that I need to be protected because I have a special power that no other animals have ever had. It is going to be hard for me since I look a lot like a griffin. My mom is a Palomino Paint and her powers are running fast and flying with her hidden wings. My mom is a Level 2 Teacher at Ranchvale for all Levels. She works on the 3rd floor of the school. My dad is a Palomino Quarter horse and his powers are Thunder Hoof, Screaming Neigh, and Flames up when he is super angry. My Dad is the Level 9 Teacher. He works on the 10th floor of the School.

They told me that we need to blend in as much as we can. They are both down stairs making breakfast. “Come eat breakfast!!” My parents yelled. So, I ran down the stairs and slid to a stop right where my food was set. So, I prayed and ate my breakfast, which was alfalfa, Bermuda grass and oats. I got done eating my breakfast. Then, my mom put my purple saddlebag on my back. Then, all three of us load up in my mom’s flying silver dually. My mom is driving us to the school. It takes us about 5 minutes to the school.

We got out of the silver dually and head to the front of the school. We go in the School. The First Floor is for the Level 0 animals. I see a black filly in front of the School. I walked up to her. “Hello. My name is Dusty Vision.” I said to her. “Oh, hello. My name is Flicka. I am all alone.” She said as she bowed her head down in sadness. “Would you like to be my friend?” I asked her. “Yes, please.” Flicka replied. “Cool! You can call me Vizzie. So, who is your teacher for the year? I have Mrs. Scorches.” I said so excited to have a new friend. “I think I have Mrs. Icinada.” Flicka replied. Then the bell rang for us to go to class. “See you at lunch!” I said as I ran off to go to class. “Bye. See you at lunch.” Flicka replied.

I got to Mrs. Scorches room and went in. I was greeted by the teacher and my fellow students.

“Hello. I am Mrs. Scorches. You must be Vizzie, right?” said Mrs. Scorches.

“That is correct. My name is Vizzie, ma’am. How many of my fellow class mates know their powers?” I asked as a set my bag down in the designated area for all the bags.

“Every single one of your class mates know their powers. Come on class, introduce yourselves.” Mrs. Scorches said.

“Hi, my name is Thumbaline. I can control things with my mind.” said a black dragon.

“Hey, my name is Camouflage. I can blend in to my surroundings.” said a green chameleon.

“Hello, my name is Speedy. I can run really fast.” said a cheetah.

“Hey, my name is Thunder Bolt. I can control all types of weather.” said a red parrot.

“Hello, me name is Mystery. No one knows where me can be at any moment.” said a red hawk.

“Howdy, my name is Spirit. I can haunt your dreams or make them sweet.” said a gray appaloosa.

“Hola, me llamo Tornado. I can move things with my mind.” said a tiger.

“Hey, my name is Diablo. I can kill you by giving you ‘The Look’.” said a demon.

“Sup. Tornform. I can shape shift.” said a black unicorn.

Meanwhile, in Mrs. Icey’s class.

Flicka arrived at Mrs. Icey’s door to her classroom and knocked. Mrs. Icey opened her door and asked, “What do you want?”. Flicka replied with “Am I in this class?”. Mrs. Icey looked at her. “No, you are in another classroom. Now, leave me alone.” Mrs. Icey said rudely as she slammed the door in Flicka’s face. So, Flicka went to the office and asked, “Which class am I supposed to be in?”. The office said, “You are in Mrs. Scorches.” Flicka knocked on the door to Mrs. Scorches. My classmates introduced themselves again.

“Sorry about being late. I didn’t know what class I had for sure.” Flicka said as she looked at Mrs. Scorches.

“No worries, my student. I did the same as you when I was your age.” Mrs. Scorches replied.

“Hi, everyone. My name is Flicka. I don’t know my superpowers yet. I hope I can learn from everyone here that friendship and knowing powers is very important.” Flicka said as she looked at me.

“Alright, my students. Time to line up. Line up in the order I call your name.” Mrs. Scorches said.

"Yes ma’am.” We all said politely.

“Thunder Bolt, Mystery, Vizzie, Flicka, Speedy, Spirit, Thumbaline, Camouflage, Tornform, Tornado, and Diablo. Thank you for lining up in a straight line and quietly doing it.” Mrs. Scorches said as she opened the door.

“Time to go on the tour of the school.” She added as we followed her out the door.

We were so excited to learn what Teachers we had on each level.

We started on the Level 0 floor. The 4 teachers for Level 0’s are Mrs. Scorches, Mrs. Icey, Mr. Jumble, and Mr. Pajama. Mrs. Icey is for the scaredy animals. Mr. Jumble mixes his words up to confuse his students but, they catch on very quick to what he says and how he says it. Mr. Pajama teaches his students who love the starry night while he sleeps. Mrs. Scorches is the nicest teacher I know so far. If you make her mad she will flame up like my dad does. I know that I could call her my aunt if I wanted to but, I don’t.

Well we went to the second floor of the school to see the Level 1 teachers. The Level 1 teachers are Mrs. Flowery, Mr. Angia, Mrs. Shorty and Mr. Cupcake. Mrs. Flowery grows plants to defeat her enemies and helps her students learn how to control their powers to grow. Mr. Angia is one that you don’t want to mess with he is in a bad mood. You can always tell if he is in a bad mood or not by looking at his mane. Mrs. Shorty is a pony that can make anything grow and shrink. Her door is so tiny on the wall. Mr. Cupcake is a master chef at pastries. He knows how to hurt or kill his enemies by putting a certain poison in their food. He offered us cupcakes and we all said no.

Next, we went to the 3rd floor to see the Level 2 Teachers. They are Mrs. Whip, Mr. Storm, Mr. Sippy, and my mom, Mrs. Vision. Mrs. Whip teaches her students how to use their surroundings as a weapon. Mr. Sippy teaches his students to use what resources they find and ration them out properly depending on where you are. Mr. Storm teaches his students how to control their mind and how to control the weather you produce. My mom, Mrs. Vison helps her students learn how to control the visions that come through and what to get from them. My mom waved at us and we waved back at her.

We went all the way back down to the Level 0 Floor. Mrs. Scorches led us to the gym and asked, “May we come in, so they can see what you do?” The P.E. teacher looked at us and said, “Sure, come on in.”. So, we all walked in and sat down on the bleachers. “My name is Mr. Mean More Face. I teach kids how to run and control their speed.” He said as he looked at us. I noticed he was a bulldog. “Get to running or you will run for the rest of the day!!” He yelled at his students. “Yes Sir!!” They yelled oud and clear. We watched him teach his students how to control their speed on a straight away and a curve for about 30 minutes. Speedy couldn’t hold still. He wanted to go run so bad.

We thanked him for his time and left. Mrs. Scorches led us to Mrs. Minty’s class. She knocked on the door and asked, “May we come in, so they can see what you do?” She looked at and said, “Sure, but you have to put these in your ears or my class will hurt your ears.” She said as she handed all of us except for me ear plugs. I noticed that she was a griffin kinda like me. We walked in the room. As I went through the doorway, I saw that the walls where at least a foot thick. The walls were that thick to make the room soundproof so the whole building doesn’t come falling down. We listened to her teach her class for about 30 minutes and it was loud. I didn’t really care. It was really amazing to hear voices of destruction. It didn’t hurt my ears at all.

We thanked her for her time and we left. Mrs. Scorches led us to Mrs. Paint’s room. She knocked on the door and asked, “May we come in, so they can see what you do?” She looked at us and said, “No.” she slammed the door in Mrs. Scorches face. Mrs. Scorches got so mad that she flamed up and walked down the hall to the office. She walked into the office and told them about Mrs. Paint. Mrs. Scorches calmed down and walked out of the office. “Alright, my students. Let’s go back to the classroom before I hurt someone.” Mrs. Scorches said as she led us back to the classroom. We entered the classroom and we separated from the line. Then, the bell to lunch rang. We got up and grabbed our sack lunches and head to the cafeteria.

We got to the cafeteria, sat down at an empty table and opened our lunches. I had 2 apples, alfalfa, and 3 quarts of oats. Flicka had 2 carrots and some grass. Flicka and I traded one apple for one carrot, part of her grass for part of my oats and alfalfa. Lunch was so delicious and nutritious. We went outside for some fresh air and to go play. “Hey Flicka, what do you want to go play? We can play tag, or we can race.” I said to Flicka. “Let’s race.” Flicka said.

We set up the track and Speedy is our referee. “Ready, Set, GO!!!!” Speedy said. Flicka and I took off with our legs pushing us as fast as they could go. We were going so fast that no one could see us. We were faster than Speedy. We were neck to neck as we ran. We tied when we stopped running. “What’s wrong guys?” I asked them as Flicka and I slid to a stop in front of them. Mrs. Scorches walked toward us. “DO NOT race or hang out together. It is forbidden that a Cremello and a Black horse hangs out together. It is said that a Cremello and a Black will come together and defeat any villain in their way.” Mrs. Scorches said as we lined up on the yellow line. “What’s the big idea about that?” Flicka asked. “Not just any Cremello and Black horse can race and be the same speed. I mean, you guys were faster than me. You guys are the Prophecy mares spoken about in the prophecy that will defeat the Mad Mane Maker.” Speedy explained to Flicka. We headed back into the school.

Everyone in the school thinks I am weird. They say I am supposed to hang out with other light-colored horses like the albinos and palominos. I like to hang out with Flicka, my best friend. I know that most would hang out with others that are alike, but not me. We go back inside the school and into the classroom. Mrs. Scorches tells us to sit down on the little mats. Flicka and I sat on purple mats that were at opposite ends of the big rug. “Alright, my students. I will tell you the story of The Mad Mane Maker and the Great Battle creating the Prophecy.” Mrs. Scorches says as she grabs the book off the shelf and sits down in her chair. She opens the book and looks at all of us.

“The Mad Mane Maker’s parents was a Lion and a Dragon. He wasn’t all that bad when Mrs. Icey and I met him. He ended up in Mrs. Icey and I’s class. At that time, we were Level 6’s and our teacher was Mrs. Lancia Copper. We gave him the tour of the school. He just snapped when he saw Mrs. Icey.” Mrs. Scorches said.

"Wait, wouldn’t that make him a draconicus?” Flicka asks confusedly.

“No, Flicka. He’s just called a hybrid. A draconicus is one with multiple animal parts.” Mrs. Scorches says with a giggle.

“The MMM is what we used to call him. The MMM and Mrs. Icey didn’t get along at all, especially when it was recess time. The MMM and Mrs. Icey had a whole fight over who was dominant/ alpha of the playground. Mrs. Icey lost and that’s how she got that scar over her left eye. Her and the MMM became enemies from then on.” Mrs. Scorches adds.

"So, that’s why Mrs. Icey is so mean to all that crosses her path.” Flicka says as she looks toward the door.

“Here’s a picture of Mrs. Icey and part of her family and The Mad Mane Maker.” Mrs. Scorches says as she turns the book around toward us.

We looked at the pictures and most freaked. I sat still and shrugged.

“What’s so special about him and Mrs. Icey? What does this have to do with the Prophecy?” I ask as I look at Mrs. Scorches.

"Well, after that day, an Omen or Prophecy was told that The MMM would be defeated by a Ying and Yang. He stormed away after he heard that from the Wise Goat of Almander.” Mrs. Scorches says as she turns the book back around and closes it.

"Hmmm. That actually makes a lot of sense now that you have explained.” I said astonished.

"Many don’t understand that the MMM is angrier now than he was years ago.” Mrs. Scorches says as she stands up and puts the book back on the shelf.

"So, he’s angry because of an Omen/Prophecy?” Thunder Bolt asks as he looks at Flicka and I.

"Wait, does that make Vizzie and I are the Prophecy Mares spoken about?” Flicka asks.

“Yes, and Yes. I know that sounds so dumb to y’all, but it’s true. Now, go play kiddos.” Mrs. Scorches says as she smiles.

We all got up and went to different parts of the room. Thumbaline, Spirit and Diablo went to the drawing board and art supplies. Camouflage, Speedy and Mystery went to the play house then ran over to the books to read. Thunder Bolt, Tornado and Tornform ran over to the math and listening area. Flicka and I stayed on the rugs. As Flicka and I were fixing to start talking when the bell rings.

“Well, I guess we can talk in the halls as we head to our parents.” Flicka says with a smile.

I smile back at Flicka. We all grabbed our bags and lined up in the order we were in this morning. We walk out of the classroom and head to our parents. I head to the stairs and head up to my mom’s room. Flicka walked up with me as we ascended the stairs. We got to the 3rd floor and finished laughing. I look at Flicka and smile.

"Well, I have to stay here until later because my mom is a Level 2 teacher and my father is a Level 9 teacher.” I say to Flicka as I smile.

“Well, as I said this morning when we first met, I am all alone. My parents are gone, and I have no other family to live with.” Flicka says as she bows her head down, sadly.

“Oh. Well, I can ask my mom and dad if we can adopt you so you’re not lonely anymore.” I said as I opened the door to my mom’s classroom.

All the Level 2 kids came out of the room. Flicka and I walked into the room.

"Hey, Mom! Can we adopt Flicka since she is alone and has no family to go home to?” I ask my mom.

“Sure. Make sure your father says yes before we take her home.” Sky says with a smile.

“Let’s go Flicka. Let’s go ask my father.” I say to Flicka, excitedly.

Flicka and I head out of the room and head up to the 10th floor where my father and his Level 9 students are.

“Come on, Flicka.” I said, excitedly. Flicka came stairs and opened the door to my father’s classroom.

"Hey, father. Can we adopt Flicka since she is alone and has no family to go home to?” I ask my father at a whisper as we walk in and see the students taking a test.

“Sure. She can be part of the family.” Dusty whispers with a smile as he hugs me.

“Come on, Flicka. Let’s go down to mom and sit with her for a brief period of time until father is done with his students.” I said, very excitedly as we left the room.

We descended the stairs to the 3rd floor. We entered my mom’s classroom and sat in the back of the room. We talked softly until the students left to go home.

My mom gathered up her bag and headed downstairs to the main floor. Flicka and I followed her down. All 3 of us headed out of the school and loaded into the silver dually. My mom started the dually, so it could be cool by the time my father got out here to the dually. After about 10 minutes of silence, my father came out to the dually. He opens the door and sits down. We all buckle up and my mom pulls out of the parking lot and we start heading down the road back to home. Flicka and I were so excited. We got about a mile or two away from the school when a Blue Ford Fusion car t-Boned us. It rolled the dually into the ditch. It landed upright, and my mom and Dad got out of the dually to see who ran into us. All I could see was a mane and I immediately knew it was the Mad Mane Maker. My mom and dad screamed and then it all went silent. I unbuckled and got out of the dually. I helped Flicka unbuckle and she got out. I looked to see if anyone had seen what happened. I didn’t even see a tumbleweed insight. All I saw was the ruined Dually in the ditch and the totaled blue Ford Fusion car.

I grabbed my now empty book bag and set it on my back. I also picked up my wooden box and put it in my book bag.

“Come on, Vizzie. Let’s get you to a hospital. I mean, I am not hurt. U are, though.” Flicka says.

I looked down, felt my forehead and above my eye. I bring my foot back down and looked at my paw.

“Let's go. It's right above my eye.” I said.

Flicka and I head toward the Norvajak Care Hospital. We got there and went in. We got my injury stitched up and left the room.

“I have a bad feeling that we are being followed by someone or something.” I said as I look around at the halls. I saw there was a lot of blood all over the walls.

“Don’t worry, Vizzie. I have the same feeling as you do.” Flicka says as she looks around. We walked very cautiously down the hall.

After a couple of minutes, we looked through a glass door and saw a doctor with his feathers all ruffled. He lifted his head and I noticed he was a Vampire Eagle. He looked at us and licked his beak.

Flicka said, “Run! We need to run, now! Run as fast as you can!”

So, we took off and ran as fast as we could go. The Vampire Eagle chased us until we got outside. We hid in the bushes as he looked for us. After a few minutes, he flew back inside the hospital. We came out of hiding and I saw something shiny on the ground. I picked it up with my talons and smiled.

“I found the Garnet Jewel. We now have 11 more Jewels to find.” I said as I put it in a wooden box that I was given. I put the wooden box into my book bag.

“Cool. Do you know what the next Jewel is that we need to find?” Flicka asked me as we looked around.

“Let me think. Hmmmm. We need to find the Amethyst Jewel next. I don’t know where to find it though.” I said as I look at Flicka and sigh.

“Let us get going. I might have an idea of where it might be.” Flicka says with a smile.

“Oh? Where would that be?” I asked Flicka.

“If I remember right, it might be at the First Beauty Baptist Church,” Flicka says.

“Let’s not wait out here any longer. I have a feeling he’s waiting for us as an appetizer.

"Well, what are we waiting for? Lead the way, Flicka.” I said with a smile as I looked at her. She looked back at me and smiled.

We started North and turned toward the West on Sycanroa Street toward a large brown brick building. I looked at the building and stared at it in awe. It was breathtaking. I never heard of this place before. Flicka looked up at the cross on the building and examined the cross.

“It’s up there, Vizzie,” Flicka says to me. I look up and see something glitter up there.

“You are correct. It looks to be an Amethyst.” I said as I backed up a little bit.

I took a running start and just started soaring upward toward the cross. I held my talons out and headed toward the cross. I grabbed the Jewel as I flew by and I landed. I folded my wings and looked at Flicka. I grabbed the wooden box and put the Amethyst Jewel in with the Garnet Jewel.

“That’s two of 12 Jewels,” I said.

“Yep. 10 more to go. I’m hoping the other 10 will be easy like these 2 were.” Flicka says.

“Me too, Flicka, me too,” I said.

We walked to an abandoned home and slept in there for the night. It was alright but, we had to sleep before the journey to the towns of Namagadia and Slamagodonnia. They are like right next to each other. Flicka laid on the bed and slept. I slept on the couch. I woke up a few hours later to clanging in the kitchen. I got up and walked over carefully. They rushed past and left before I could get a good look at him.

‘Oh well. At least he’s gone.’ I thought to myself.

I walked back to the couch and slept on it for the rest of the night. After a long night and some well-deserved rest, we got up and headed outside. We ate some of the grass in the yard and headed Southeast toward the town of Namagadia.

After a couple hours of walking, we stopped and got a drink of water in the town of Shallabendamon. We headed back to the Southern direction with a bit of an East direction too. After a few minutes, we got to the town of Namagadia.

“Here we are,” I said as I looked around.

I saw mules and donkeys everywhere. I walked forward, and they all just stared at us.

“Smaller than I thought. Let’s get busy finding that 3rd Jewel.” Flicka said as she looked around.

She saw something glitter above us on a tower or an old cross. She looked up and smiled.

“What are you smiling about, Flicka?” I asked her as I looked at what she was looking at.

“I’m looking at the Jewel up there. The only way to get it is to climb into the tower and fly up to grab it.” Flicka says with a smile.

“Oh. Well, what happens if you just fly up there and get it?” I asked her.

“Who asked that silly question?” A strange, airy voice asked.

We looked around and couldn’t find it.

“Show yourself!!” I yelled as I looked around.

“’Tis only I, Dear traveler.” The strange, airy voice says as it appears.

Flicka and I look at the church and saw a Velociraptor ghost.

“Oh, hello. Who are you?” Flicka asks as she walks toward him.

“Oh, me? I’m but just a mere old ghost from when this church was first built and that there Jewel was mined here in town by me. ’Tis now a memory.” He says.

“No. What is your name? Why are you here with us?” I asked as I got more impatient.

“Ah, yes. Me name is Thistle Whistle Whittler. ‘Tis my friends call me Thistle. What ‘tis two pretty, young fillies be doing out here? What ’tis y’all names?” Thistle asked with a ghostly grin.

“Oh, umm. We are out here for that Jewel up there. My name is Flicka and her name is Vizzie.” Flicka says with a smile.

I kept glaring at Thistle. I didn’t know if I wanted to trust him or not, either way, I was getting that Jewel.

“Aye. ’Tis must be careful getting that there Jewel. ’Tis lost me life getting it.” Thistle says.

“How do we get it down?” I ask kindly.

“’Tis must be patient until the right time.” Thistle says as he looked at me.

“When will that be?” Flicka asks.

“Aye?” He asks, very confused.

“The right time to get it?” Flicka asks him.

“Aye, ’tis will be time in about a few hours. When the sun touches it with a single ray of sun, ’tis the right time.” He says as he disappears.

“Wait!!” I yelled. Thistle appears again.

“’Tis youngin, what do you need?” He asked me.

“I was wondering about the Jewel.” I said calmly.

“’Tis ask away, kiddo.” He says as he sits down.

“What do you mean by it was mined by you in this town?” I asked.

“Ah, ’tis a long story youngins. Want to hear the long or short version of the story?” He asked us.

“The long story please.” Flicka and I said calmly together as we sat down.

“Well, ’tis was just a hatchling, ’Tis used to whittle anything and everything. It didn’t matter what it was, sticks or logs. ’Tis always whittled and whistled. ’Tis started my own business when I was only 14 years old. I ate Thistle weeds instead of meat. My parents and my other siblings thought I was stupid. ’Tis was a weird child all the way up to an adult. I was starting to make my own money by 14. After that, I was making probably $300-$400 a week. Parents kicked me out and I stayed at the shop.” He says.

“Hold on a minute. You ate Thistle Weed?” Flicka asks.

“Yeah, now hush. Let me tell the story. I made money like crazy but when I was, oh, 30 years old, my business started to decline. I wasn’t happy but when I was 35, my shop went out of business. I was sad. There was miners that were needed. ’Tis took the job of a miner and mined for years and years.” He says.

“Wait, how many years is years and years?” I asked him.

“Oh, 20-30 years. I worked in that mine digging for coal, iron, gold and anything else mineable. I came across the Bloodstone. I dug it out and it was, eh, 3 inches in diameter and it was flat. I looked around and stuck it in my bag. I headed out of the mine and motioned the boss over. He came over and I opened my bag. He considered the bag and dismissed me. I left and headed to the church. I entered the church and handed the priest the bloodstone. He looked at me and thanked me. He set it on the piano and asked if I wanted recognition and I said yes.” He says.

“Was the priest a dinosaur like you?” I asked him, real curious.

“No. He was a human with a wolf tail and wolf ears. He smiled and picked the stone up. He headed up a set of stairs. He disappeared and came back a few minutes later. ’Tis thanked me again and said that the Bloodstone finished the church, perfectly. ‘Tis went to leave and someone, in a black cloak, shoved me back in and said to turn around and get on my knees. I said ‘tis don’t have any knees. I can sit, lay and stand. That ’tis all I can do. He growled and put the gun to the back of my head and told me to sit down on the bench. ‘Tis did so, but the dude thought the priest had the stone and demanded it to give it to him. I said that the stone disappeared, and the priest didn’t have it anymore. The dude didn’t think ‘tis was funny. He went to shoot me but ’tis bullet bounced off my skin and hit in the wall. I noticed his tail was a wolf tail. I grabbed it and he looked at me. I let go and he took his hood off. ‘Tis noticed he was an ole frien’ of mine from years ago.” Thistle says as he looks downward.

“What did he look like? What was his name?” I asked him.

“His name was Gray Wolfendor. ’Tis known as a Poisonous Wolfdoring. He wasn’t very nice to anyone. He’ll be back soon. ’Tis knows I’m dead. He’ll be back and will take that stone for himself.” Thistle says as he looks around.

“What’s wrong, Thistle?” Flicka asked him as she looks at him concerned.

“Watch for a man with a gray tail and a black cloak on. He is very dangerous.” Thistle says as he disappears. The sun started to rise.

“I guess we will have to wait to get the Jewel.” Flicka said as I looked around for anything suspicious.

I saw something move behind a tree. I started walking toward the tree and kept looking toward the tree. I kept walking slowly toward it as it moved again. The sun started to rise as I got closer to the tree.

“Come on, Vizzie!! We need to get the Jewel before he does!!” Flicka yells at me. I turned around and ran back to Flicka.

“Let’s go, before I try to figure out what’s watching us.” I said as I walked toward the church.

“Wait!! I wouldn’t listen to that ghost if I were you.” A strange voice says.

“Why do you say that?” I asked the strange voice as I listened for anything it does. I stayed facing the church.

“What are you doing Vizzie?” Flicka asks me.

“Just, trust me. I know what I’m doing.” I said quietly.

“Don’t trust the ghost because he’s a liar and he didn’t mine that jewel.” The strange voice says.

“Show yourself and we’ll talk about it face to face.” I said. “No. Trust me and what I say.” The strange voice says.

“Uh, no. I only trust if I can see you.” I said as I started walking toward the church.

“Stop!! Don’t touch that Jewel!!” The strange voice snarls.

“No. I’m not stopping until I get it.” I said as I kept walking. Flicka followed me. We got to the door of the church and the door opened on its own.

“No!! He hasn’t told you anything about the church!” The voice snarls. I stop and turn to look at them. “I…I’ll show myself.” The voice says as she walks out from behind the tree.

“Hello, who might you be?” Flicka asks as she turns and looks at her.

“M…my name is Landanora. Thistle is a friend of mine that likes to lie to y’all youngins.” She says.

“I do not lie, Landanora!” Thistle growls as he appears.

“Do too!! You l…lied to me!!” Landanora snarls. “I do not lie!! ’Tis only tell the truth!!” He growls as he flies around her.

“N…no!! You are a b…big liar!!” Landanora growls.

Flicka and I turned around to head into the church. We walked in and the doors shut behind us. We looked around and the hallway lit up with candle lights.

“Hmm. Kinda weird how those lit up.” I said as I walked forward.

“Yeah, I mean. This is a weird church.” Flicka agreed. Then, we heard laughing.

“Who’s there?” I ask boldly.

“It is only me! Normajoke the Hyena Preacher!” He laughs as he stays hidden.

“Show yourself, Norma… whatever your name is!!” I yelled as I walked forward down the hall. Flicka walked down the hall beside me.

“I see him, Vizzie. He’s in the room up ahead.” Flicka says as she looks ahead.

“How’d you know that, Flicka, daughter of Flash and heir to the throne?” He asks as he cackles.

“What? Wait a minute, I’m confused. Who is Flash and heir to what throne?” Flicka asks as we entered a huge Cathedral.

“Flash, the Lightning Dragon King. Never mind all that!! Why are two young fillies doing out here in a church?” He asks as he starts cackling again.

“Stop cackling or whatever you’re doing!! Why are you here?” I snapped back at him.

“Oh, sweetie. I am the preacher here and no one is to get the stone!” He growls with a smile.

“A hyena? A preacher? No way!!” Flicka said as she started laughing.

“No!! No laughing!! No!!” He screams as he lays down and covers his ears with his paws.

Flicka and I took the chance and ran up a set of stairs.

“There it is!” Flicka yelled as we got to the top of the tower. Flicka went to grab it.

“Wait!! Remember what Thistle said, wait until the right time to grab it.” I reminded Flicka.

“Oh, yeah.” Flicka said as she backed up a little bit.

The light from the rising sun touched the bloodstone and I grabbed it. I grabbed the wooden box and set it next to the Amethyst.

“Alright, that’s 3 of 12 Jewels. Let’s get going before that Hyena gets up here and sees us.” I said as I put the wooden box in my bag.

Flicka nodded in agreement and headed down the stairs. We passed the Hyena halfway down the stairs. He just glared at us as we headed down the stairs. We got to the bottom of the stairs, we hear “NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!” he screamed.

We ran out of the church and hid behind a tree. Normajoke screamed and we watched the roof of the church lift and break as Normajoke broke through as he grew bigger and bigger. He started cackling. He looked around and grabbed the tree that we were hiding behind. He pulled it out of the ground and growled.

“Give it back!!” He snarls as he swipes at us.

We jumped up and ran as far as we could away from the church. He chased us to the edge of Slamagodonnia. We ran into town and he stopped. Normajoke growled and turned back around. He left away from the edge of the town. We fell to the ground as we breathed hard. The residents of the town came out slowly and looked at us.

“Whew!! That was close.” Flicka said as she stood up and looked around.

“Yeah, that was way to close.” I said as I stood up.

We started to hear whispering and mumbling as we only caught certain words. We definitely heard this sentence clearly.

“Who are they and why are they here?” A strange crackly voice said.

“I am Flicka, and this is Vizzie. We are Prophecy Mares who are to defeat him. We are in search of the 12 Jewels. We need help in finding the Sapphire Jewel. Will you help us, dear town?” Flicka says as she looks around. They continued to whisper.

“The Jewel you seek, is not that meek. When is shines, it does not whine. Be careful of the owner of the church with it, HE is dangerous and has many a wit.” The crackly voice said as we tried to locate the voice.

“Ok. Can you tell us where to find this church?” I asked as I smiled.

“The church is next to where you came in and only believers can see it. HE is dangerous once you enter.” The crackly voice said.

“Thank you so much.” I said.

“Wait a minute. Believe in what exactly?” Flicka asked as she looked at me.

“Believe in our savior is dead and never will return to the town to cleanse us of our sins.” The crackly voice said as it stayed hidden.

“Thank you once again. Come on, Flicka. Let’s go get that Jewel.” I said as I headed back you the edge of the town.

Flicka followed me to the edge of town. We saw where the building would be and said together.

“We don’t believe our savior will be back to cleanse us of our sins.” We said at the same time.

A building rose up from the ground and we entered. It went dark, and I looked around with disbelief.

“Where’s the owner?” I asked as we looked around.

“I am here at the front if you need me.” A gruff voice says.

“Please, sir. Come over here so we can see you.” Flicka said kindly.

“Fine.” He says as he disappears within a cloud of black magic.

He appears in front of us. We saw that he was a Minotaur. He stood about 8 foot tall.

“Sir, we need the Sapphire Jewel from here. We are the…” Flicka was cut off short as he growled and put a finger to her lips.

“I’m only going to say this once. That Jewel stays here with me or you will get hurt.” He growls.

“Oh. That sounds like a challenge to me, sir. We need that jewel to defeat Him.” I said with a smile. He stares at us surprised as I grab the wooden box I was given.

“Okay. Here.” He says as he took his necklace off and took the Sapphire Jewel to Flicka.

Flicka grabbed it and put it in the wooden box as I opened it. I put it away.

“Thank you, sir. We will return them to you as soon as we defeat him.” I said with a gentle smile.

“Go on and save all from his grasp.” He says as the light came through the windows. We walked out, and the building disappeared like it wasn’t even there.

“Alright!!! Hip, hip!! Hurray!!” Everyone cheered.

“What do you mean by that?” Flicka asked as she stomped her left hoof and lightning struck the ground next to her. Everyone went silent and ran.

“Thanks, Flicka!” I said sarcastically.

“Sorry. I got startled and asked a simple question.” Flicka explained.

“It’s alright. We need to get going on our way, anyways. We have 4 of the 12 Jewels we need. We need to get the 5th Jewel, Agate.” I said as I started walking toward a meadow near the town.

Flicka followed me. We started eating and after a few bites, I was good to go. Flicka ate more and then she stopped. She was full and walked up to me.

“Let’s get going before he shows up. So, we started walking toward the town of Salamandera.

We walked for quite a few hours. I smelled the air for water but, all I smelled was dust and dry air. I looked around and saw cacti everywhere.

“Flicka, does a cactus have water in them?” I asked her.

“Not these cacti. These contain poison. They look ok from the outside but, the inside will kill you.” Flicka said as she looked at me.

“Oh. I guess I’ll have to go thirsty for the rest of the way.” I said as I continued to walk toward the town of Salamandera. Flicka followed me. She stopped and listened.

“He’s coming. Run! Run!!” Flicka yelled as she ran as fast as she could. I started running also.

“Run little ponies, run! You can run but you cannot outsmart me!!” An old scraggly voice snarl.

“Flicka!! We need to outsmart him!!” I yelled as I ran.

“You go left, and I’ll go right. Stop about a mile from the turn and look at him.” Flicka replied as she ran along beside me.

“Split!” Flicka yelled as she turned.

I did the same. We both stopped and looked at him. He looked toward me and growled.

“Give it here!” The scraggly voice yells at me.

“Wait, what? Give you what?” I asked as I looked at him.

“Give me the Jewel!” The scraggly voice snarls.

“I know who you are!! You are Gray Wolfendor!!” I yelled at him.

He looked at me stunned as he took the hood off and said, “You’re righ’. I am Gray Wolfendor. How’d you know?”

“I… uh… I figured the old priest was dead and I… uh…I admired you since I was little.” I said as I looked around.

“Hmm. You admired me since you were little? It does pay to stay young.” He says with a smile as his tail twitches.

“Y…yeah! That’s what I wanted to learn from you. I wanted to learn how to stay young like you.” I said as I looked him straight in the eyes.

“What abou’ your friend over there? She looks like fun.” He says with a smirk as he pointed to her.

“L…leave her be. She doesn’t care for you. She was helping me look for you.” I said as he went to grab my chin.

“Dearie dearest. If you want to know my secret, then you’ll have to marry me.” He said as he smirked as he grabbed my chin.

“Why would I marry an old dog like you?” I asked him as I smacked his hand away.

“Did you just call me an old dog?” He asked me as he started getting angry.

“I… I’m sorry. I get angry and spout things out before I think about it.” I apologized to him.

Wolfendor smiles and sits down in front of me. I looked at him confused.

“You know, you and your friend are interesting. Need some water, girlie dear?” He says as he smiles and waves Flicka to come. Flicka walked cautiously toward us.

“Find me a Rock and make me a bowl ou’ of this sand.” He says with a smile.

“N…no! I will not do that! We aren’t your slaves!” Flicka snapped as she stomped, and he got shocked with the lightning created by her stomp. He looked at her with a smile and stood up.

“You defy my orders when I can tell both of you need water and I have a way of purifying the poison into water?” He asks angrily.

Flicka started walking away and I followed her. Something stopped me and started pushing me back. I broke free of it and we ran into the town of Salamandera. We slid to a stop and looked at him. He howled and disappeared.

“Welcome to the town of Salamandera. How may I help you, ma’am?” A girl’s voice asked us. I turned around and saw a faun.

“Umm. Some water, please.” I said with a smile.

“Right away, your highness!” The faun said as she runs off.

“Your…highness? What’s that supposed to mean? We aren’t royalty.” Flicka says confused.

“I don’t know. I guess they say that to like saviors and visitors.” I said as the faun comes back.

“Here’s your water your highness.” The faun says as she set 2 bowls down in front of us.

“Thank you. Why did you call us your highness?” I asked her.

She smiled and said, “Long ago, 2 mares like you and your friend here, ruled this town. When they left, this town went downhill and never had any visitors. They never came back but we thought maybe you 2 were them but, I guess not. It’s very exciting to see visitors. You two look like you could use a bath and freshen up some.”

“Huh. Never thought about that.” I said as I smiled back at her. Flicka and I drank the water. It was refreshing on our throats.

“Can you show us where we can relax and clean up?” Flicka asked.

“Over by the run-down palace! There’s a blue building there. They’ll take care of you.” The faun says as she walks away.

Flicka and I walked over to the blue building. We walked in and they sat us down in chairs and started cleaning us up. After a couple of hours, Flicka was done. They still had to clean my wings and my talons on my front feet. They started giggling as they cleaned my feathers and fixed my talons. It took them another 3 hours, but they enjoyed it.

“Where can we sleep for the night?” I asked as the sun set and the sky turned a red color.

“Stay here and sleep. Red sky isn’t good.” A faun says as she closes the curtains.

“We need to hide you. Queen of night will be here, and she doesn’t like any visitors with powers.” The faun says as she starts pushing me.

“No. We want to see her and talk to her.” Flicka said as the door bursts open.

“Who wants to talk with me?” A wispy voice asks.

“We wanted to talk to you.” I said as Flicka and I turned around and the fauns bowed.

We saw a smokey but solid figure with wings and a horn.

“My, my, my. If it isn’t Vizzie, heir to the throne of Doligust. Why are you way out here?” It asks.

“What? Never mind. I am getting all 12 Jewels to defeat the Mad Mane Maker.” I said confidently. She starts laughing.

“How… how many do you have now?” She asks as she walks toward me.

“Me? No, it’s not you have. It’s WE have 4 of 12 Jewels. We need 8 more. Now, leave this town alone.” I said boldly as I slashed her face.

She backed away as blood droplets hit the floor. She glared at me and left the building. She left the town and the sky turned back to a normal purple color. The fauns cheered and smiled.

“There’s a hotel across the street. They will let you rest your tired eyes and body.” A faun with long hair says.

We walked to the hotel and they smiled. They showed us to a room and left. We walked in and saw 2 huge beds. I set the bag on the floor against the wall. Flicka and I laid down on the beds and slept.

We woke up the next day to something loud clinking. I looked in the bag and grabbed the wooden box. I looked in and saw the Agate, the 5th Jewel of the 12 Jewels. I closed the box up, put it in the bag and put the bag on my back.

“Ready?” Flicka asked me.

“Yes, I am.” I said as I opened the door.

We left the room and headed toward the clinking sound. We found the source of the sound. It was the training grounds of the Samurai Knights of Salamandera.

“Excuse me, can you guys stop for a few moments to talk?” I asked them.

They stopped and looked at us. The one with the golden helmet motioned the others to stand at attention. One lifted his golden helmet and looked at us. He was a Satyr.

“Hello, madams. How may I help you?” He asked us.

“What’s your name? We were wondering if you know who put the Agate Jewel in our stuff.” I said standing tall.

“My name is Helenfire. The Queen of Night did after you slashed her cheek. She said she had never seen someone so… confident and so well mannered.” He said with a smile.

“Oh. Well, do you know where the Emerald is?” Flicka asked him.

“Well, it’s here.” He said as he looks at me.

“Do you know where… never mind. I see exactly where it’s at.” I said with a smile.

“I won’t just hand it over. If you defeat me, I will give it up. One on one.” He says as he puts his helmet on.

“Who’s going against you?” Flicka asked.

“Vizzie. Vizzie will go against me. You are too strong, dear Flicka.” He says as he walks to the center of the grounds.

I took the bag off my back and handed it to Flicka. I walked to the center of the ground.

“How shall we do this?” He asked me.

“Combat. We can use magic, weapons and our powers including me flying.” I said confidently.

“Sure. That’s fine with me.” He says as he pulls out his Samurai sword.

I smiled and opened my wings. “Flicka! Count down!” I said with a smile.

“Ok. 3… 2…1…GO!” Flicka said as she looked at me.

I flew up as he swung his Samurai sword. I kicked him in the back as I flew past him. He fell to the ground as I landed a few feet away from him. He stood back up and grabbed his sword.

“Not bad, but not good enough!” He snarled as a ball of light appears in his hands.

“Are you sure, sir?” I asked him.

“Oke dragoo ase few!” He snarls as he aims the light at me and shoots it.

I dodged it by barely an inch. I swooped down and kicked him in his back. He fell to the ground and I landed next him. My legs burst into flames as I looked at him.

“Either give me your helmet or I will make you give it, very painfully!” I snapped at him. He stands up and bows.

“So…sorry. Here’s my helmet.” He says as he hands me his helmet. I take it and grab the Jewel from it.

“Thank you, sir. Wait, YOU TRICKSTER!!!!” I yelled at him as I threw the helmet down and crushed it. He smiled and looked at me.

“You didn’t specify no tricks used in the fight.” He says as he looked at me with a smirk.

“You are a cheater! Where is the real Jewel, Helenfire?” I asked him angrily.

“Tell us where it’s at!” Flicka snapped at him.

He started laughing. I grabbed him by the neck and flew up higher.

“Where is the real Jewel? I am the heir to the throne in Doligust!” I said as he grabbed onto my leg.

“L… Let me go!! I… I’ll tell you where it’s at. I didn’t l… lie about it being here.” He says as he started flailing.

“Tell me where it’s at!” I snapped at him as I kept ahold of his throat.

“Please! Set me down on the ground and I… I’ll show you where it’s at.” He says as he gasped for air.

I landed and let go of his throat. He backed away coughing. Then nets were thrown above us and landed on top of us. Flicka and I fell to the ground.

“YOU LIER!!!” I yelled as I struggled to stand up.

“Hehehe. You shouldn’t be so trusting. Did your mother and father ever teach you NOT to trust a Satyr? Oh! Did I strike a nerve?” He asked with an evil smile.

“Let us go, you monster!” I yelled as I kept struggling to stand up but, the ropes were too heavy.

“Give up, sweet heart. You’ll never get out of those ropes. I have won and, you have lost.” He said with a smirk.

“Save your breath.” Flicka said as she stood up with ease.

“How did you stand up?” He asked surprised.

“I have super strength, Helenfire. Now, let us go or I’ll bust through it like it’s nothing.” Flicka said angrily.

“Lift the ropes!!” He yelled. The ropes started lifting but as they lift the ropes, so did our feet.

“This isn’t letting us go!!” I yelled. He started laughing.

“Do you think I fear a couple puny animals like you? Well, I am not afraid you two. Now, open your eyes and see the world from where I stand. This world is cruel, and I learned it the hard way.” He said as he looked at me and Flicka.

“No. That’s a lie. This world is kind and thoughtful.” I said.

“Lies!!! You spout lies on that wise tongue of yours.” He yells as he faces away from us. We noticed his horns were gone but, he looked older.

“Where’s your horns?” I asked bravely.

“Huh? Oh, I lost them in a fight with… Gray Wolfendor.” He said angrily. “I thought you beat him.” Flicka said confused.

He snickers. “I did beat him, unfairly. I did the same with you two.” He said with a wicked smile.

“Silence!! No more of this… talk.” A gruff voice snaps as Helenfire bows.

“Sir! Please, get us down. We need…” I said as I was interrupted with a “I said Silence!!” The gruff voice snaps. I see a dark figure walk toward us.

“Get them down. They are my guests.” The gruff voice says.

My left front leg burst into flame and I burnt the ropes that was holding us.

“No need, sir. We are already free. We need the 6th Jewel which Helenfire wouldn’t tell us where it is,” I said as the gruff voice went to interrupt, “No, no, no. Don’t you interrupt me. He needs to be demoted. We are here to get the 6th Jewel and we will be on our way.” I finished.

He smiles and looks at me. He grabs my wing and looks at it.

“You can fly, can’t you?” He asks me.

“Yes sir. Now, where is the 6th Jewel?” I asked as I took my wing and folded it back against my body.

He smiles and starts walking away.

“Tie her wings to her body and have them walk this way.” The gruff voice says as he walks away.

“Show your face coward!” I yelled at him. He stopped walking and turned around.

“You don’t wan’ see my face, dearie dearest.” He said.

“It’s you!! Gray Wolfendor, isn’t it?” I asked him with a smile.

“How could you tell? By my voice, smell or the way I walk?” He asked with a grin as he took the hood off. He started walking away again.

“You cower below these Satyrs and you call yourself a leader, old dog. You are no leader, you are a selfish coward.” I said with a smile.

He stops abruptly and turns around to look at me.

“Coward? Is that how you see me, dearie dearest?” He asked with sad eyes.

“You are a coward. You cower below the protection of the Satyrs. Face me and tell me where the 6th Jewel is.” I said as I opened my wings and glared at him.

“Feisty one, aren’t you? I don’t want to fight. I will tell you where the Jewel is IF… you follow me kindly, sweet heart.” Wolfendor said with a smile as he started walking away.

“Enough talk. Now, tell us where it’s at right here, right now!” Flicka snapped as she stepped in front of him.

He stops, looks downward at the ground and smiles.

“I don’t wan’ make this hard. Now, follow me quietly or there will be consequences that you can’t tolerate.” He says as he grits his teeth.

“Tell us why we should follow you after you tried to attack us outside of Salamandera.” I said as I closed my wings and held them tight against my body.

“No. I’m not going to tell you that. Tie her wings down and put a muzzle on both. I don’t want them to interrupt me while I speak.” He says as he keeps looking downwards.

The Satyrs held my legs and wings as they tied my wings to my body. The put a muzzle on both of us. I opened my mouth as wide as it would go, and the muzzle ripped. It fell off and I looked at Wolfendor.

“No one puts a muzzle on me or Flicka.” I said as I ripped Flicka’s muzzle off.

“So be it. Walk this way… please.” He says angrily while gritting his teeth. He walks away and into a blue building.

“Shall we follow him?” Flicka asked as she looked at me.

“I have a feeling he’s lying but, lets follow carefully.” I said as I started walking forward.

“Coming or no?” Wolfendor asked as he poked his head out of the doorway.

“Yes, we are coming.” I said as Flicka and I walked toward the blue building he disappeared into. We walked into the building and stopped right inside the door.

“Walk this way, sweetie kins.” Wolfendor says with his fists clenched and they started glowing a greenish-gray color.

“This isn’t what you said. Where is the Jewel?!” I yelled as I looked at him.

“No, it isn’t but be SILENT!!” He yelled as he turned around and slammed us against the wall on both sides of the door. It knocked us both out.

I remembered the dream I had when I was little but, then I didn’t understand it very well. When I was out, I had the same dream, but with more to it. I saw that I was in a cave and I saw a rock wall with a big boulder.

“How do I move this? I cannot move that physically.” I said as I looked at the boulder.

“Ya don’t move it with your body, ya move it with ya mind or soul, mate.” An Australian male voice says.

“Excuse me?” I asked as I looked around and saw it was a snake.

“Ya move it with ya soul or mind. Listen to ya heart. It will take you far, kid.” He said.

I listened to my heart and mind. My soul moved the boulder and I walked through. I walked into some kind of arena and saw at the other end was an angry dragon. It lunged at me and I flew up.

“What?!? How am I supposed to beat… Wait a minute!! Maybe with kindness.” I said as I landed behind the dragon as he turned around. He growled and glared at me as he lunged at me.

“I’m sorry, dragono! Please forgive my whole family that has defeated you.” I said as it laid its head down and turned into dust.

I wiped away a tear from my eyes. I cleared my throat and walked forward through a doorway and heard a strange voice.

“Welcome to the cave of Hollowed Warriors. Sit down with your wings out, if you have them, and we will evaluate what you shall become.” A female voice says.

“Who are you?” I asked as my wings were weighted down to the ground. I started trying to pull my wings up but, I couldn’t get them to lift.

“I am Lunahilda. Please, be still as we examine you.” She says as a set of yellow eyes pierce the dark.

I stood still and was able to lift my wings again. I folded them up against my body.

“You are no longer known as Kudonnakin. You are now known as Dusty Vision. You are one of the Hollowed Warriors. You signify Life and Light since you are light colored, dear Cremello. Now that you have these new powers, you must lose all emotion for the rest of the journey. Only use your ultimate form when you are ready to give up everything you loved in this world.” She said as she showed to be a black bear.

I dipped into a pool of some kind of white substance and came back out with red stripes on my legs, down my neck and on my face.

“Be careful on this journey. You now have no emotion and shall go on alone. No mere friend shall help you along. No longer are you a griffin, you are now just a Pegasus.” She said as she disappeared.

I woke up and saw that Flicka wasn’t with me. “Flicka!! Flicka!! Where are you?” I yelled as I looked around.

I heard Flicka’s voice was faint when she yelled, “I’m in a dark room!!” I looked around the room and saw I was in the throne room.

“Well, well, well. Looks like sweetie kins is awake. Listen up, dearie.” Wolfendor says as he jumps off his throne and lands in front of my cage.

“Wait a minute… where is Dusty Vision? This isn’t her!! Go find her!” Wolfendor yelled angrily.

“I am the ‘Dusty Vision’ you are looking for.” I said with no emotion.

“That’s a lie! The Dusty Vision I am looking for is a griffin, not a… a… a puny Pegasus like you!” He snarled as he hit the cage.

“Does the griffin or Pegasus thing really matter since I am Dusty Vision?” I asked him.

“It does ma… no, it doesn’t matter. Tell the other guards quit the search and come back!” He says with a smile. Part of the guards came back and stood at attention.

“Who’s this ‘Flicka’ you yelled for?” He asked as he looked at me.

“An old friend.” I answered quickly but, with no emotion.

“Let them both go.” Wolfendor says as he tosses the Emerald to me. I caught it with my mouth and stepped out of the cage.

“Good Vision. Now, go find your old friend.” He says with a smirk. I walked closer to the throne.

“What are you doing? I said go find your friend!” He yelled at me.

I stayed silent and grabbed the wooden box and put the Emerald in it. I put the wooden box back in the bag and set the bag on my back. I headed out the door and walked out of the blue building we were in. I saw Flicka outside of the building.

“Hello. I must go now.” I said as I walked past Flicka.

“It’s not just you. It’s both of us.” Flicka said as she ran and stopped in front of me.

“No. It is only I that must go on. Alone.” I said as I left.

“No, you’re not. I am going with you no matter what you say. I am your friend and I’ll go with you no matter the circumstance!” Flicka yelled as she followed me.

“Leave me be. I must do this alone. Lunahilda said so.” I snapped at Flicka. She looked at me confused.

“Who’s Lunahilda? Nevertheless, I am going with you no matter what.” Flicka said, confidently.

“Fine, but don’t get in my way.” I said as I walked past her. She followed me to the edge of Salamandera.

“Don’t go out there!!” Someone yelled.

Flicka and I turned around to see who yelled. We saw it was Wolfendor.

“What do you want, you traitor?” I asked calmly.

“You guys cannot go. There is a force field around this town.” Wolfendor said as he looked at us.

“We can get through that.” Flicka said as she started walking toward it.

We walked through the force field, leaving Wolfendor behind. We walked North toward the big city, Jusyundun.
