Hello, I'm the author, and this will be your chapter two for the evening.

"Swaine! You're here!" Esther turned around and exclaimed.
"And thanks to this lot." Swaine said motioning to the three behind him.
"Well, that'd be two down." Link said stretching.
"So have any of you heard the where-a-bouts of Olli-boy?" Drippy looked at the group.
"Nope. No one has even seen him in days." He looked at Drippy and then the ocean, about to kick him in but stopped as he turned around.
"Didn't you say he had that one spell? What was it...Gatesay? Waitfay?" Cirno asked trying to remember.
"You mean "Gateway"? I even remembered!" Yang looked up holding onto his inner tube.
Cirno glared at him. "Whatever!"
"Yeah, your point?" Swaine asked.
"Well, he could be in his world for all we know!" Link exclaimed and some of the vendors looked at them.
"I know you'er onto somethin' today boyo!" Drippy jumped for joy.
"Well, why not go?"
"Yes, that's a good idea...but the people who lived there didn't even see us." Esther remembered the various times the whole group went there.
Yang thought for a moment. "So we won't be seen?"
"That's what she's saying." Link took the map from Drippy and opened it. "The Golden Grove has the trees with the portals in them...I believe one of them was to Oliver's world."
"Alright then, so shall we go?" Esther asked.
"Wait. In all the other worlds, everyone could see Cirno and I." Link sighed. "What if the three of us are seen and you, Swaine and Drippy aren't?"
"What happens will happen! Now shouldn't we be going?" Swaine startled everyone.
"Uh...sure."

"So we just go through these?" Swaine looked at the trees with the various doors on them.
"Yup. This is our form of that puny "Gateway" spell. These go to many worlds other worlds...Hmm, this may be the one we need." Link said opening a door with a car on it and they appeared at a park.
"So this is Motorville?" Yang looked at the buildings. "This place is weird..." Cirno looked around.
"It's not that different from some of the other places we've gone to." Link and the others walked down the sidewalk.
"Hey mommy, look at the funny clothes!" A little girl walked up to Link and pointed at him. "See?" Her mother walked over and took her hand and walked away.
"I don't have any idea what you're talking about! I don't see anyone!"
"Well, some of them can see us...Wait, is it those who still believe in magic? I wonder..." Link snickered and had a ball of fire in his hands aimed at a stick on the ground.
Drippy jabbed at his ankles. "What have you gone flippin' mad mun?!"
"No, I just wanted to make people believe."
"Don't waste your breath mun. These people 'ere don't know a single thing about magic!"
"The kids do. You know where Oliver lives, so you should lead."
"Well fine I will!" Drippy took the lead and ran in front of them to the home where Oliver lives.
"Wow, so he lives here? Not much of a home." Link walked up and knocked on the door and Oliver opened it slowly.
"Oliver!" Esther came onto the porch and smiled.
"Uh...Hello?" He was in his normal clothes and looked at the bunch awkwardly. "Who ARE all of you?"
"Ooh no mun, this isn't right..." Drippy's eyes widened.
"I do believe he has amnesia..." Esther stared in worry.
"That's an easy cure! We can just hit him on the head!" Cirno laughed.
"You're not going to do that."
"Exactly, that can make things worse, it can make him forget even how to breath if we hit him in the wrong spot." Link rolled his eyes. "Maybe if we can show him things that will make him remember...He can obviously see us, so that's a start."
"Why wouldn't I see you?"
"Ignore that. So...Amnesia?" Link thought for a moment. "Don't you three have anything that he used a lot? You said he had a wand..."
"He had a whole bucket load!" Drippy pulled out the bottomless bag and opened it up and the various wands were in the bottom.
"Give him the twig." Swaine picked up the first wand ever received and gave it to Oliver.
"What's this?"
"It was you'er first wand Olli-boy!" Drippy acknowledged the etchings. "You casted Gateway for the first time with it!"
Oliver turned it slightly and looked at the tip of the wand. "I have no idea what this is."
"What?! Boy, this is one bad case."
Link stared at the wand and pried it out of Oliver's hands. "Maybe we could show him the other world...Maybe he'll believe then." He nearly dropped the wand but Drippy caught it and put it back in the bag.
"It's worth a shot." Said Swaine watching a car go by.
"Nighty night Olli." Link pinched him on the neck and he fell the ground. "Thank you Meiling." He picked him up and carried him over his shoulder. "He'll be fine in an hour."
"Can you NOT hurt him?" Esther asked in a sharp scream.
"It didn't hurt him. Trust me."
"He's still breathing, I sometimes do the same thing, it's funny watching a guard flop to the ground after you pinch 'em." Swaine chuckled.
"I can relate. Well let's get him back to the other world." He said with his ankles trembling slightly.

"Oh look, he's waking up." Link said setting down Oliver gently at the trunk of a tree.
"Thank goodness." Esther smiled as he opened his eyes.
Oliver looked around quickly and got up slow. "W-What is this place?"
"You mean you don't flippin' remember this! This is the world that you saved from the White Witch!" Drippy exclaimed hopping in front of Oliver.
"Hmm...Didn't you say King Tom the, whatever number gave him a wand? Maybe he can help us." Link said tapping his foot.
"Sounds reasonable." Swaine was already walking to Ding Dong Dell.
"Just follow us." Esther looked at Oliver and then he followed, scoping out the world. A few moments later, they were at the gates of Ding Dong Dell and the guards were happily patrolling it.
"Hello again!" One of the duo turned around and invited them in with a smile.
"Do you think we can get to speak to King Tom today?" Link asked, halting the group.
"Sheesh, straight to the point..." Drippy whispered to himself.
The guard laughed. "If you can have him sit down for a moment! He's always running around town, ever since he came and helped us all." He pointed to Oliver.
"Huh? What'd I do?" He stood there in a lost of thoughts.
The guard looked at Oliver and tapped his helmet with his spear. "You got me to enjoy my job again! You fixed broken hearts everywhere!"
"Uh..."
"Well thanks anyways, have a nice day." Link said and they all walked into town and strolled to the palace gates and saw King Tom walking around, greeting everyone with overabundance of joy. He gazed over to the group and ran over to them.
"Hello hello! It's great to see you all again." King Tom said with a smile.
"Uh...Hello you're Meowjesty." Swaine said with a perplexed tone.
"Ah, I see you're giving some new friends of yours a tour." He looked at Yang. "You...You do LOOK quite familiar..."
"He never even knew about this place before, and Cirno and I didn't either." Link said sarcastically.
"You should have more respect for him! He's royalty ya know!" Drippy said jumping up and knocking Link in the nose.
"I know! I'm not used to using the royal speak!"
"Well it's nice to know you're honest." King Tom smiled and looked at the palace after a bell rang. "Oh, it's lunch time already? Hmm...Too early, I'm still enjoying the outdoors." He motioned for the guards to wait.
"Actually, we need a favor."
"Favor you say?" King Tom nodded. "Alright, what is it?"
"Oliver has amnesia and we want to know if you can help." Esther sighed. "They suggested hitting him on the head." She pointed to the other three.
"Hey, it works most of the time!" Cirno said sarcastically.
"Well the library in the palace may have what you'll need. I don't know purrciesly if it has the spell you're after, but it may help with the condition." King Tom turned around and escorted the group into the castle's library.
"Not as extensive as Patchoulli's but you get what you can get." Link said and they all split up, searching the gallery for the right tome needed.

"Ugh...No luck again." Link grumbled closing a book and stacking it on a large pile that he's already skimmed through.
Esther was a few feet away, engrossed with a large book that had various illustrations of instruments inside. "I may have to see if I may borrow this for later..."
"You and your music. I know specific music can do things, but really, I'm not that obsessed." Link casually said with a grin as he looked through another book that had a blue cover.
"Obsessed?! I don't carry around a whole army's need for weapons!"
"I use them sparingly. Sheesh, they're just fun ways of dealing with enemies...Like my mallet." He said pulling out the heavy steel hammer and held it on his shoulder. "This I use for squishing skeletons and giant gomas' guts out back in Hyrule!"
"...Gomas?"
"Giant jumping spiders essentially."
"Oh...We have everything from plants to giant cats that will attack you."
"I noticed." Link said and the conversation died down until Swaine came over.
"Any luck with you two?"
"None whatsoever."
"I've only found stuff that we can use with the cauldron..." Esther sighed closing another book and carefully put it on the stack of books.
Meanwhile in another section...
"Crikey get down there! You're gonna break your neck!" Drippy yelled at Yang as he climbed the bookshelves.
"I'll land on my feet! I do this all the time!" Yang dropped down four books and Cirno caught them all except for the last one that struck Drippy, toppling him onto the ground.
"Hey! What's the big ide- 'Ello what is this?" Drippy looked at the title. "'1001 Cures for Spells!' Ah, thanks a lot kitty-boy." Drippy jumped onto a chair and opened the book.
"Stop calling me that!" Yang jumped down onto a chair next to it.
"Where's Oliver?" Cirno asked looking around.
"King Tom took him to try to make him remember. He also has him back in his usual clothes that he wore here." Drippy looked at the contents. "Nixes, curses, 'eck there's even being poisoned by dragons in 'ere!"
"Just look for something for amnesia."
"I am I am! I know you can't read well."
"I at least try..." Cirno sat down and opened a story book.
"Oh no this isn't good..." Drippy said looking at the page with amnesia spells on it...but no cures...Except one.
"What?" Yang looked over the chair's back.
"It says here...He may forget how to breath if it goes long enough without a cure..." Drippy closed the book and start running towards the others. "Crikey you should hurry up!"

"It's a curse?" Link asked opening to the page.
"Yeah, and a nasty one at that. Look at the prolonged effects." Drippy pointed towards the bottom.
"Y-You mean he'll forget how to breath?" Swaine asked stuttering.
"Yeah, and there's only one cure..." Yang said and they all looked at the bottom.
"...You're telling me we need to get a pearl, emerald and a chunk of gold? Sounds easy enough." Link shrugged.
"You do realize those are from the royalty?" Esther noted.
"Royalty? So does King Tom have one of them?" Swaine asked and Drippy along with Esther looked at each other.
"We have to defeat them in a dual or their champion...King Tom, The Cowlipha, and Marcassin all have one."
"Seriously? That's all?"
"Then we need to go to The Fairygrounds. There is a cave near there we can use for that-a-spell." Drippy said. "The spells already in the book, we just need the materials."
"The worst part is...having to go to the desert." Cirno sighed.
"So we have to defeat them in a duel? That's even easier." Link grinned evilly. "Let's go beat up King Kitty."
"Well you won't be fighting unless you're picked mun!" Drippy shouted.
"As long as Cirno isn't picked, we're good." Yang snickered.
"Hey!" She glared at him, poking the back of his head. "I'm getting better you know!"
"Yeah, thanks to me with your lessons. She's powerful, but doesn't have that good of aim." Link said with a sigh. "Let's go get him." The six left the library and went to find Oliver and King Tom.

Nothing's ever easy is it? Chapter three will be up soon, I promise.
