Chapter 9: Crystal Kingdom Clue Part 1

"Here we are guys the crystal kingdom." said Dora.

Everyone looked in awe at the many colors shining brightly throughout the land and the giant colored rainbow in the sky.

"There's so many different colors!" said Naiya. "It's like a colorful paradise!"

"I'm glad you all like it." said Dora. "The many colors you see are what bring life to the crystal kingdom."

"The kingdom is powered by four magical colored crystals." said Boots. "Yellow, blue, green, and red."

"The yellow crystal gives color to the sun to make it shine its bright light." said Dora. "The blue crystal gives the sky and ocean its clear blue color ."

"The green crystal gives its green color to the grass and trees." said Boots. "The red and final crystal joins with the others to make the giant rainbow you see

in the sky.

"The rainbow is what keeps the kingdom alive." said Dora.

Everyone was amazed about the crystals they were just told about that power the entire kingdom.

"We should go see Queen Allie and the old King." said Dora. "They live at the crystal castle."

"They're sure to help us find the clue." said Boots.

"Boots and I helped our friend Allie save the kingdom the first time we were here." said Dora. "The king used to be greedy and tried to take the crystals for himself."

"In the end we all became good friends and the king learned to share." said Boots. "The king also made Allie the new queen of the kingdom in her honor."

"It's one of our favorite adventures we went on." said Dora. "Vamanos, to the castle everyone!".

Dora and the gang headed from the outskirts toward the gates so they can enter the kingdom.

"Halt who goes there!" said the kingdom gate guards.

"It's Dora and Boots your old friends." said Dora.

"Dora and Boots long time no see!" said the guards. "Welcome back, what do you guys need?"

"We need to see Allie and the old King." said Dora.

"It's a big emergency!" said Boots.

"Sure, anything for you two head on in!" said the guards.

The guards opened the gate to the kingdom so the gang could go through.

Dora and the gang headed through the plaza toward the crystal castle. In the center of the plaza stood the giant crystal statue holding the four magical

crystals that power the kingdom.

"It's Dora and Boots!" whispered the townsfolk as the gang traveled by.

"Dora and Boots are back!" said some others.

"They're with some new friends." whispered another.

"Dora looks so different!" said another.

The gang passed through the plaza as the townsfolk welcomed Dora and Boots back then they made it to the castle.

"Let's go greet Allie and the old king Boots.' said Dora.

Everyone walked around the outside looking at the castle and its grounds while Dora and Boots knocked on the front door.

"Who is it?" said Allie.

"It's Dora and Boots." said Dora.

Allie opened the door to see her old friends from long ago.

"Dora, Boots it's great to see you guys again." said Allie giving them a hug. "Dora you changed a lot, how have you guys been?"

"It's great to see you again Allie." said Dora. "We've been good."

"It's been a long time Allie." said Boots. "It's good to be back."

"How have you and the old King been?" said Dora.

"We've been the same and the King is still nice." said Allie. "Let me go get him for you."

Allie went back inside and got the old king where he and the duo greeted each other again.

"So, what brings you guys all the way back?" said Allie.

Dora and Boots told the two about the adventure so far and asked if they've seen the clue.

"That's a lot that's happened so far." said the old King.

"We did notice something appear and fall way far out in the land." said Allie. "We assumed it just magic from the crystals.

"Given what you said it definitely seems sure enough to be your clue." said the King.

"We should be able to find out where it is." said Allie. "You should go and get your friends to let them know.

Dora and Boots headed back outside to gather everyone where they came inside and got filled in.

"Before we search after your adventure so far you all should hungry right?" said Allie.

"We should use a break guys." said Dora. "We have traveled for some time now."

Everyone agrees they should take a break and relax for a little. Allie motioned some chefs to make everyone a snack while they relax. Dora told Allie and the old king about what she and Boots have been up too since they last came. Josh and Blue also told them about their world and their friends.

"Those are some great stories." said the King.

"I'm glad we met Josh and Blue." said Allie. "With Dora, Boots and everyone else by your side you're sure to get back home."

"Thanks, we hope to get back home." said Josh.

"We can do it by keep working together." said Blue.

"Looks like the snacks are ready." said Allie.

Everyone went to the table and ate the snacks while telling more stories and having fun. After everyone ate Allie and the old King looked all around the map of the land until they concluded where the clue was.

"So, your last clue is sure to be at the top of Dragon Mountain in the dragon fields." said Allie. "But be careful because the dragons like to keep things they find, and they don't like visitors.

"The only way to stop them is by singing them to sleep." said the old King.

"I know a special song that can make the dragons fall fast asleep." said Dora.

"That's great Dora." said Allie. "I'll go with you to guide you through the fields."

"I can watch everything until you get back Allie." said the old King.

"That's a wonderful idea your ex highness." said Allie. "If you guys are ready to go let's get to it."

Everyone said farewell for now to the old king as they exited the castle and walked past towards the Dragon Fields to continue the quest. The adventure is getting almost close to being over.
