Chapter 26: The New Mission 2

Aaron was excited to know more about the stone that Diana mentioned. Finally, there was some hope to cure his mother's illness.

- This is our chance to save Anna. We don't know if we could find another way in such a short time.

- I know that, but Aaron, we shouldn't act hasty. We don't know anything about that woman.

- What you said is true. We don't know her intentions yet, but we don't have any other choices, we will be cautious. You are strong and I became stronger too. There is nothing for you to be worried about...

Tarou sighed:

-Fine, let's hear what she's going to say. Promise me that you won't do anything without consulting me.

- Alright, I promise...

Anna was against all of that. She didn't want her children to be involved in her mess.

- I have never wished for this...please Aaron. You must get rid of that black power. I'm dying anyway...I don't want to see you suffering.

Tarou and Aaron sat beside their mother to calm her down.

- As Aaron said, we will find the cure for you then we will take that black power out of his body. Don't worry, I will make sure to do the right thing. You trust me, right?

- Yes...I do!

- Good, now I want to see you smile.

Anna hugged her two sons while holding her tears back:

- Please, be careful!

The next day, Aaron, Tarou, and Sarra headed to the town. They went directly to the library. Aaron was worried that Diana won't come.

- Do you think she will come?

- I don't know.

- What if she changed her mind?

Sarra suddenly stopped:

- LOOK, she is standing in front of the door waiting for us!

When they approached her, Aaron took a better look at her face.

" Is that her? "

She seemed different from the day before. Maybe he didn't notice her beauty because she was covered with dust, and he was too busy saving their lives.

She looked very beautiful with long silver hair and big black eyes. Her small nose red lips and ceramic-like skin made her look like a doll.

Aaron was quite surprised. He kept gazing at her for a moment until her gentle smile blew him away.

She was happy to see them again:

- You came! I thought that you refused my offer to help.

- We didn't accept anything yet...We came to know what is this stone exactly.

Replied Tarou.

- Let's get in, there is something I want to show you.

They followed Diana and entered the library. It was very big and full of books. Aaron couldn't take his eyes off Diana, but due to his brother's glares, he pretended to look around:

- Wow, do humans read all those books?

- Yeah, that's the source of their knowledge.

Diana Asked them to sit at a table, then she disappeared between the library's shelves.

After some moments she came with an old book

She put it on the table while smiling:

- This is what you need.

- What is this?

- This book contains The information you need about that stone.

She opened the book, then started turning over the page cautiously until she stopped and pointed her finger at a stone that have a combination of black and rainbow colors.

- This is the stone. It is called The magical Rainbow Obsidian. This stone allows helps to bring emotions to the surface so the sick person can acknowledge them, release them, and fill those spaces with love and light due to its magical powers. It can heal any disease.

- Where can we find such a stone? Asked Aaron

- That's the hard part, its exact location is not known, and we need to search for it.

Diana went again to search for a particular map, but she couldn't find it.

- I didn't find the map I'm looking for...

Sarra stood up:

- I will help you, let's search more.

- I will ask the librarian, maybe he knows something.

Diana called for him:

- Sir, can you help us? We are searching for something.

- Alright, I'm coming, miss...

After some minutes, he came.

What a surprise, it was Dylan again. When he saw them, he come in a hurry.

- Hey Tarou, we meet again. Then he looked at Aaron:

- Oh, Aaron! It has been such a long time. You grew up very well. You were about ten years old when I left the land.

Aaron was very surprised to see Dylan.

- DYLAN? WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

- We met him yesterday when we went to the town. I will tell you later what did happen.

Dylan approached Sarra:

- The beautiful sister is here too, I'm happy to see you again.

He tried to hold her hand, but Tarou got in between:

- So, you are the librarian. Why I'm not surprised.

- Yeah, books have been always my source of joy...By the way, What all of you are doing here?

- We need something. I hope you will help us find it.

- Of course, I will do anything for my best friend. So, what do you need?

- A Map.

- A Map of what?

Diana replied:

- The Map of the hollow earth.

Dylan looked very surprised:

What? Are you serious? That Map is very rare, you can never find it here or anywhere else.

- Are you sure? Is there no hope?

- Why do you need it?

Everyone kept silent. It was obvious that they didn't want to tell him.

- Come on, Tarou, I'm your best friend, we know everything about each other, just tell me maybe I can help you.

- Fine, come here.

Diana showed him the stone while Tarou told him about his mother's condition.

- So, what you're looking for is in the hollow earth?

- Yes, that's why we need a map that can lead us to it.

- I'm sorry, there is no such map in this library.

Everyone's face turned gloomy:

- So, there is no hope...

- I said there is no map but I didn't mean that there is no hope.

- What do you mean?

- I know a secret way to the hollow earth.

Aaron's face shined with hope and joy:

- ARE YOU SURE? WHERE IS IT?

Dylan put a big smile on his face:

- It is In our land "The Land Of The Monsters".

Chapter 27: The New Mission (3)

When Dylan told them that he knew a secret path to the hollow earth in the land of the monsters, Aaron and Tarou weren't that glad to hear such information. Their bodies trembled after only hearing that name.

The land of the monsters? It was the last place they want to go. How will they face the angry father? And what if their people found out about Aaron using the black stone? He will be killed in no time.

" What kind of mess is this?"

Tarou tried to understand what Dylan was telling them:

- How did you know about that? I have never heard about the existence of such a thing in our land.

- I read about it in our ancient book.

- The ancient book? But we are not allowed to read it!

- It was too tempting. I couldn't bring myself to ignore such an important book.

- Where is this path exactly?

- It's hidden under the temple.

- Are you sure?

- Didn't you ask yourself, how the holy heart is always so powerful despite being used all these centuries? There is something that gives him energy constantly.

- What is that?

- Every powerful stone absorbs energy from a big source in the hollow earth because it's their origin place.

- What if the holly heart leaves the land?

- It will be useless like any other powerful stone that leaves its source of energy.

- So you're saying that we should bring my mother with us to the hollow earth?

- Yes, she must be near the source to get the healing power from the stone.

Aaron slammed the table while looking annoyed:

- DAMN IT, THAT'S GOING TO BE ANOTHER PROBLEM...Anna will never agree to come easily with us. Not after what she has been through in the land.

At that moment, Sarra interfered:

- Don't worry, I think she will agree to go back to the land.

-Why are you so certain?

- The night when your father left Anna and turned his back on her, She nearly died in the snow, but someone saved her life and brought her to safety. She doesn't know who he was. He left his coat and his necklace beside her. She always says that she is in debt to him and she wants to thank him even if it was the last thing she will do. I think she won't refuse to go back with you. Just tell her the truth, and she will understand.

- Let's hope that. We can't force her to go back with us if she refuses.

Aaron closed the book and stood up:

- I think it is late, Anna must be worried. Thank you Diana for helping us.

- I owe you my life.

Sarra, Aaron, and Tarou left the library to go back home, but Dylan followed them:

- Wait! Are you leaving?

- Yeah, we can't stay here any longer. Do you want something?

- When can I meet aunt Anna?

- Give us some time to tell her about our new plan.

Dylan smiled:

- Alright...

Finally, they returned to the house. Anna was waiting patiently for their coming back. Her face brightened as soon as she saw their faces.

- Welcome back! How was your day?

Aaron and Tarou looked at each other:

- It...It was okay.

Anna felt something strange in her sons' behavior:

- Did you meet that woman, again?

- Yes we did, she told us how to cure you from that disease, but...

Aaron couldn't bring himself to tell her any further:

- But, what?

Tarou decided to tell her the truth:

- The healing stone is in the hollow earth, and its only path is in the land of the monsters.

- So, you will go back to the land! It's okay. I will wait for you.

- No, the stone shouldn't leave its place or it will be useless.

- What do you mean?

- You must come with us to the land of the monsters.

Tarou told his mother everything they knew about the stone.

Anna didn't make any reaction at first, she sat down and kept listening without a word.

After some moments, she stood up and went to her room. Aaron wanted to catch on to her, but Sarra stopped him:

- Don't talk to her, she needs some time alone to deal with her emotions.

Tarou and Aaron stayed in the living room waiting for their mother to come back.

- Is she going to refuse? Is she angry? Maybe we shouldn't ask her something like that in the first place, there must be another way.

While they were lost in their thoughts, Anna came back. They stood up and looked at her waiting for her decision.

- I will go with you... I will go back to the land of the monsters after seventeen years. I don't care if it will work or not as long as I will spend more time with you, but I have one condition.

-What is it?

- If I ever meet your father don't interfere between us, I will handle it on my own.

- Fine, we won't interfere.

- That's settled then.

Aaron and Tarou felt happy. Nothing will hold them back from saving their mother. As for Anna, she was very nervous. She will be back to the place where she suffered the most.

" Will everything be okay? "

- When will be traveling?

- Tomorrow...We must start to gather our things.

Replied Tarou.

- Tomorrow? Shouldn't we wait for a few more days?

- We Shouldn't waste any more time...

Suddenly the door knocked:

- Who's coming at this hour?

Aaron opened the door...It was Dylan.

- What are you doing here?

- I came to say hi to aunt Anna.

Dylan pushed Aaron aside and went in without permission. When he saw Anna, he ran and hugged her.

- I MISSED YOU, AUNTIE.

- DYLAN? IS THAT YOU? I'M HAPPY TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

- Yeah, me too

Anna touched his face and brushed his hair gently while smiling:

- You changed a lot! My dear, Dylan.....
