~Chapter Nineteen: Directions and Deas~
"Come on guys! It's only a little furthur! Now we turn on Will Street and… were here!" Lily screamed out in to the night air. We had been walking for a while, in the world of Serenity and the town of Slice, and were almost at the infamous Mrs. Green's house.
"Okay everybody, but Chlo and Letta, when we go in do not, I repeat, do not say who you really are, no matter how nice she seems! Remember; she could be – and she probably is - working for Sire Kingslond!" Nat warned us.
And we walked up to the door of a strangly decorated house. The whole thing was green with white trim. ::No I'm not a tratior to U of M! It's just how the dream went!:: Sirius knocked on the door, once, twice, three times. And then we waited.
Not long after that, a plump lady wearing a long green and white pilgrim-style outfit opened the door. She had black, curly hair and snappy black eyes that gave the impression that she could act very well.
"Hullo, dears! And what may I do for you this evening?" She asked us.
"Are you Mrs. Green by any chance? We have some questions for you…" Nat trailed off.
"OH!!!!! I KNOW what you're talking about, dears! Well, come inside. Come along now! I won't bite! I promise!" She said, realizing who we were. She was trying to usher us inside her house now and we realized that now there was no turning back. Once she had us in there she could do whatever she wanted. She had the homefield advantage. We started to back away. But, no, we had to find Cassie and Mrs. Green was our only hope. We tentativly stepped in the house.
Once the door was closed Mrs. Green quickly dropped her cheery attitude.
"So. Ya wanna know where your lil friend Callie, or something, went, right?" She asked us, sounding like a biker chick. ::Do u all know what I mean?!?!::
"It's Cassie. And yeah, we need directions. That isn't a problem with you is it?" Sirius asked back. Being a smart-alec was something he reveled in and he didn't intend to start kissing this lady's butt just to get information.
"Okay, Cassie, then. How much ya gonna pay me if I tell ya where she is?" She asked us.
"Uh, um, I have an American twenty," Lily piped up. "What?!?! I went there for the summer holidays!" She replied to the black stares she received, we were, after all, in England.
"Suits me. Fork it over," Mrs. Green said snatching the bill out of Lily's hands.
"Now, you have your money so tell us the information," Sirius cried.
"Fine, fine, fine. Don't be so pushy. Gawd! Well, here's what ya have ta do: first get some transportation – it's a long walk. You can get some from 'Daring Dani's Daziling Transportaion!' Then find the big church tower in the center of the town. After that go west until ya hit the town Silver – it's a few hours away. Then ya'll turn North until ya get to the town called Butterfly. That's where that royal family lives. Anyway, there ya should look for Priestess Lilac. She's the royal advisor. Look for the house that looks like a giant dome. When ya see her say 'To the Sire we must go, fe fi fum fo!' Don't ask, k? The Sire made that up. See ya! Go! Leave me be! Bye! Forget to write!" She screamed, at us ushering us out the door.
"Now, to get some transportation. Hey! Maybe they'll let me drive a car! Na nana na nana na nana na nana!" Sirius sang out.
"Yeah! Right! They'll trust YOU with a car, Siri!" Tod said sarcastically. ::Siri is pronounced Sere::
"Well, c'mon guys! Who knows – maybe they don't even have cars!" Val sensibly replied.
And so we trudged off to Dani's. Once we were there we we shocked. Standing in front of us was a shop of Deas!
Now for those of you who do not know what a Dea is, I will explain it. A Dea is an animal that looks kind of like a cenautar except for the fact that it has a lion's lower body instead of a horse's. Using these for transportation was not bad, and did not hurt the Dea at all because, well, Dea's are very, um, well, dumb. Although they are very beautiful, proud, feirce, cute, loveable creatures they are not any smarter than a salamander.
"Hello there and welcome to Daring Dani's Dazaling Transportation! I'm Alysson, how may I help you?" A kind lady asked us. She looked as if she were about twenty-three, maybe, with wavy golden hair that went to her shoulders and bright, cheery, baby blue eyes.
"Uh, yes. We'd like 11 Deas, please," Remus asked.
"Sure, that'll be fifteen Galleons. You can go pick out your Deas now. Thank you," She said taking the money from us.
And so we searched for the fastest Deas. And it wasn't long till we found them. Their names were: Anne, Andrew, Bekka, Brad, Crystal, Chad, Dina, Dan, Elizabeth, Ed, and Freddie.
We took them outside and climbed upon their backs. Then we were off.
It was a wild ride. And it almost felt as if we were flying. We were going at the speed of light and I was terribly surprised that the ride to Silver still took a few hours. Once we had entered the town we had immediately headed towards the town of Butterfly and were there within an hour.
~Chapter Twenty: A Priestess, An Answer, and A Royal~
"C'mon! Let's go! Her house is only five more minutes away!" Val shouted to us. We were beginning to get *quite* tired and *quite* sore from riding.
"Now, to find the house that looks like a dome," Candy said.
"There it is!" Peter shouted. And there it was. It was a giant, off-white dome.
We got off of our Deas and tied them to the fence near the dome. The we walked up to it and knocked.
As soon as we had knocked, a lady that looked maybe sixty opened the door. She had snow white hair and dark lavender colored eyes.
"To the Sire we must go, fe fi fum fo," we chorused and she quickly ushered us inside.
"I, as you probably know, am Priestess Lilac," she said puffed herself up with pride. "And I know that you are the Tricky Trio and co. Am I right, or am I right?" She asked us.
"Uh, sure lady. Whatever. What we wanna know is where our friend Cassie is. Mrs. Green told us to ask you. So spill it," Sirius said to her.
"Okay. She's on the Sire's ship. You get there by going to Kelpsy Marina and taking the ship that Cypress is holding. He knows who you are. Happy? I hope so," Priestess Lilac said to us.
"Thanks Lilac," we said to her.
Just before we left she said, "But I also know this, the Lovely's great-great-grandmother was Queen Clarissa ::aka Snowy from my story 'Cronicals of Serenity: Book 2' aka 'Snow White: What REALLY happened!':: from this world. So that means that she is the Lost Heir to Serenity. Queen Jade, her great-great-aunt, is just saving her place. Now go," she said, stunning us.
We quickly walked out of the door and hopped onto our Deas.
We rode for an hour or more. We trudged on and on and on. And finally, we made it to Kelpsy Marina. It was a very pretty place with green and blue all over. It was really, really big and it had lots of fish in its rivers.
"Now, to find the ship," James said.
"Yes, the *easiest* part! C'mon guys! Let's find that ship!" Lily said, making her Dea go faster so she could search for the ship Cassie was on.
"Yeah, I mean how hard can it be to find a person named Cypress?" Sirius asked.
