January 28th
Was that blonde fairy, um Nareecka or something, of any importance? Probably not. But Kelsey knew that Zaphlin
was the most confusing piece of the puzzle. And Kelsey had noticed something very odd about Ribbon in the crystal
ball, she wasn't wearing her wreath of flowers which her ribbons were attached to. Kelsey had never seen Ribbon
without her ribbons. And furthermore the fairies had not referred to her as Ribbon, they had called her Violet.
Maybe a twin? Probably not. Maybe Ribbon was just her name in Time? All Kelsey knew was Zaphlin was definitely
NOT Ribbon. She had a very uneasy feeling about Zaphlin, as if she couldn't be trusted. Well obviosly, she wasn't
exactly "friendly" back there with that other fairy. All Kelsey knew was she didn't like Zaphlin at all. She missed
Ribbon, who hadn't talked to her for a very long time. "I'm sorry what I said about Time Ribbon! I do need your
help badly right now and I will help protect Time" she said to the air. Suddenly the Amulet started glowing. Kelsey
looked into it and the dark red cloud changed back into the blue swirl. It had been the dark cloud for about a
month now and Kelsey had started to get worried. "Well finally it took you long enough to apologize" said a voice
behind Kelsey. "Ribbon!" Kelsey said happy that Ribbon was finally back. "Wait, you mean if I had apologized in the
beginning you could've been back a month ago??" "Not exactly, you had to actually mean it and plus you were in a
lot of trouble that you had to take yourself out of" Ribbon said. "Huh? What do you mean?" Kelsey asked. "What I
mean is when that blue swirl turns into a dark red cloud, the Destroyer of Time is controlling you or your doing
her biding somehow with you not knowing it" Ribbon answered. So Eternity had been taking advantage of her. That
was a close one. "Oh, I have something for you" she said, remembering. Ribbon made a piece of parchment appear
and handed it to Kelsey. "It took me forever to translate it from the Fairy language. Time told me to give it to you"
she continued. Kelsey grabbed the piece of paper and was about to study it but she saw Ribbon turn to go. "Wait
Ribbon?" she asked. "Yes?" Ribbon responded. "I was just wondering, is your name Violet?" Kelsey asked. Ribbon
frowned. "It was." Then after saying that Ribbon disappeared. "I wonder why she despises that name so much" Kelsey
thought. Kelsey opened up the parchment.

Dear Violet,
The strangest thing happened in the forest today. I was in a clearing and all of a sudden a voice came out of
nowhere. It told me to write down this poem and give it to you. They also said to tell you that you would
give it to someone named, Kelsey. Strange there is no one named that in this forest. You don't know of
anyone who could actually live beyond the forest? I mean that's not possible right? I was very confused but
I wrote it down anyway and here it is:

Bonds of Time link with Bonds of Love.
Bonds of Hatred link with Bonds of Eternity.
Darkness falls another light is lit. If the
light is not lit soon you can come to the
bond of hatred. Repair old wounds. Things
are not what they seem. State the obvious.
The one you are searching for you do not
know but yet you do. Be aware young Keeper
of Time. ...Things are not always what they seem...

I am very confused about this but it's probably your own private business so I won't ask you about it. I'll see you
tomorrow? Please don't get into too much trouble Violet. I'm worried about you. You've been more distant
lately than normal. Maybe we can talk sometime.
Love, Willow

Strange. Must be one of Ribbon's friends. The letter looked very old. Maybe the girl wasn't around anymore and
that might be why Ribbon was sad. Maybe Violet was a nickname that girl Willow had given her or something. But
that wasn't the focus, that message for her was. "The one I am searching for? I'm not searching for anyone. I was
searching but I already found my person. But they know me. Things aren't what they seem . . . hmmmm. Kelsey had
an uneasy feeling she had made a terrible mistake.
