When you disappeared, all of you found yourselves moving through
blackness. You could see shapes of people and animals as you flew on
by. You could hear hundreds of voicing talking at once. Your head felt
like it was going to explode when suddenly, you and Matt slammed onto
the earth.
A little disoriented, you turn your head to Matt. "Uh...W-what a ride
huh?"
Matt turned towards you, "I'll say." The two of you lean forward into
a sitting position. A little distance away from you is Hector. He was
kneeling down, clutching at his heart. "Hey Hector, are you okay?"
"I-I...think...I..know what...the curse is...UHHHHHHH!" Hector
screamed as a shot of pain. He then started to spasm as he fell unconscious.
"Hector!" you both yelled. You try taking a step forward at the same
time, causing you to fall to the ground again. Matt was about to try
again, when you stopped him, "Matt hold up."
"What is it?" Matt says with obvious panic in his voice.
"Look at this." You hand him a piece of parchment. He read aloud:
For those who find this...
A word of warning...
Never steal from the witch of the Mountains...
Or you to will suffer as greatly...
He has three days time to live...
If you want a cure for this man...
Come to my home, or just go on your way...
"What are we going to do Matt?" You glance at Hector worriedly.
