CHAPTER 10! This chapter will show you the curing powers of the Emerald, Opal and Ruby.

Note: I knew the Belt of Deltora couldn't have been in the Shadowlands Castle because it can't be taken beyond Deltora's borders. But I made some changes.

This is the past (Before Lief and his friends were taken to the Shadowlands):

Before Neridah captured them, she cast a spell that will caused the Belt of Deltora and the seven gems to lose all of its power. Nobody knew it, even the king. Then, Neridah and the Grey Guards captured them and toke them to the Shadowlands (The belt lost its power so Neridah can toke the belt to the Shadowlands). While on their way, Lief toke out the Topaz and threw it somewhere (Because he knew Neridah will use the gems to do something bad).

In the Shadowlands Castle, the seven tribes were locked up in the chair with force shields. The others were locked up in a different way. Neridah toke the gems and placed them on the chairs, but it was incomplete.

*After Neridah put the gems on the chairs, all the gems had their powers back, so is the Topaz (The gems were unable to defect Neridah because they were locked up).

*The Belt of Deltora will have no powers until Neridah was defected.

Oh, and one more thing, the Opal showed the future to Crystal (Me) in chapter 7. Please read chapter 9.

Anyway, please enjoy reading!


Chapter 10: Cure

Geraldine was not feeling well. She seem to had a headache.

"Are you OK, Geraldine?", I asked.

"Not really.", Geraldine answered.

"You need to rest. We will stop walking.", Lilly said.

"Lilly is right. You really need to rest.", I agreed.

"What about our journey?", Geraldine asked.

"Don't worry about that. We'll continue it after you recover.", I said.


That night, we stayed at a safe place for a night. Geraldine was sick.

"You two get some woods. I will take care Geraldine.", I said. They nodded and went to get some woods.

"You feel better now?", I asked Geraldine.

"No. It...is...getting...worse", she answered weakly.

"Get some rest, Geraldine.", I said.

She may had the poison in her. I thought.

A few minutes later, Alyssa and Lilly came back. Their hands had some woods but their faces looked like they were sick.

"What happened to you two?", I asked.

"My eyes suddenly became blind. Must be sands in my eyes.", Alyssa answered. Her eyes were closed.

"I was bitten by a poisonous spider. I am not feeling well.", Lilly answered.

"Geraldine is not feeling well too.", I said.

"You gotta help us, Crystal.", Lilly said.

"Yeah!", Alyssa said.

"Maybe I can.", I said and touched Alyssa with my hand.

Suddenly, a rainbow bow appeared on my eyes. I felt the curing power.

Suddenly, Alyssa opened her eyes.

"My eyes! I can see again!", Alyssa said.

I remembered the Opal can aid those with weak sight.

I touched Lilly with my hand. Suddenly, a red bow appeared. Lilly was cured. I remembered the Ruby cures venom.

"Hey, it's works!", Lilly said.

That means I can help Geraldine. I thought.

I touched her. Suddenly, a green bow appeared. Quickly, Geraldine was recovered. I remembered the Emerald is an antidote to poison.

"I am feeling well!", Geraldine stood up and said.

"You saved us!", Lilly said.

"Yeah, with your magical powers.", Alyssa said.

"Thanks. Its pretty late. I think we should take a rest so we will have enough energy for our journey tomorrow.", I suggested.

"She's right. Let's get some sleep.", Lilly said.

Quickly, we felt asleep.
