"Mother, are you sure you'll be alright by yourself?" Vesta asked that morning. The witches had discussed their plan the night before and had agreed that Vesta, Hilda and Sabrina would go into Zelda's brain to try to repair the damage and wake her up while their mother waited for them outside.

"I'll be fine. I wanted some time alone with her anyway," their mother whispered as she stroked Zelda's cheek and a tear ran down her face.

"Okay. We'll be back soon." Hilda said as she pointed and the three witches disappeared.

The three witches appeared in Zelda's brain an instant later. Everything looked similar to what Sabrina had seen when she crashed into Libby's brain once while riding with Salem in his toy rocketship. Hilda hurried over to the door that led to the main part of the brain and tugged on it but it was locked.

"What?" she said as she pulled harder and finally ended up crashing to the ground. "Why's Zelda's brain locked up?"

"Could this be something like witchsnap? I heard about Zelda's bout with that last year. Everyone in the Other Realm heard about it." Vesta said as she pointed at the door to try to open it but it didn't budge. "I heard that witchsnap causes the brain to be locked up."

"Who knows?" Hilda said as she shook her head. "Spread out and start looking for another way in. Maybe there's a backdoor to Zelda's brain that's open."
