Chapter 6 The Cave

Everyone ran out of Treno the got on the airship. It was rough getting it to start seeing that it landed in the forest. It was shaky the whole ride, which was very unpleasant. They all walked into the lounge as Quina drove the ship. Garnet started reading the Index of the book, to see if there was anything we could do for Eiko's head. "Aahh. Here it is!" She said to everyone as her finger pointed to "Summoners horns, page 388." She said flipping through the jagged edges. She began reading. "It says here that if someone's horn is removed from their head, that it will grow back eventually. But there is only one way. There is a type of lotion that we need to apply everyday after breakfast on Eiko's head. It's called neoboise." Garnet stated. "Where are we going to find that?!?" Eiko asked. "I don't know" Garnet said. "I think we could hold off on that and look for the cave Kihoman talked about." Zidane interrupted. "He's right. We can't waste anymore time." Tawnya told Eiko. "As soon as we get through this, and life becomes more peaceful, then we could head to a medicine shop." Tawnya stated. She unraveled the map and searched it. "How will we know which one it is?" Zidane asked. "I guess we will just have to try one. But it would probably be better hidden then the rest of the caves." Tawnya stated. "Well I think the closest one is just over this mountain peak." Zidane thought. "We better slow down." All of the sudden the ship jerked and started tipping on the mountain side. "What's Happening?" They screamed as they began to run to the front of the ship. "Nothing seems to be wrong with it, but it's way out of control. Tawnya dashed into the lounge and grabbed her gift she got for Ruby in Treno. The ship skid along the mountain and the door flung open. Garnet grabbed hold of Zidane when they saw Quina run over to them. " I think we jump now!" She belted. "Jump?!? Are you crazy?" Tawnya yelled at Quina. It was too late. A sudden rush sucked everyone out of the ship. Everyone was scared to death because they new there was no soft place to land. soon enough everyone plunged into a large red tree. Quina unfortunately was too heavy to stay on. She snapped her branch in half, crash onto the ground. "Ouch??" She said to herself quietly "Lets get out of here!" Zidane yelled as he began climbing down. "Hang on, my leg is soar." Tawnya said. Eventually everyone plopped to the ground, they all looked down near there feet. There was a tiny whole in front of them which probably lead to the cave. "Well, there no chance I could fit through tiny speck." Quina said sadly. "You be our lookout, just in case you see someone. ok?" Zidane asked. "S...sure." She told. Garnet squeezed in first, the Tawnya, Eiko, then Zidane. "This is quite odd, I've never seen a cave like this before. Tawnya said looking at the perfectly smooth walls. They walked further into the cave seeing more changes in the texture of the cave walls that began to get smaller. In front of them was one pathway with light at the other end. "Lets go take a look." Eiko said bravely as she dashed in front of everyone else. She ran so far that it was almost impossible to see her. A minute later they could tell she stopped. "This isn't good." she said quietly as she felt a rumble below her feet. "What is it?" Zidane asked Eiko as she ran towards them. "Good ques..." The floor rumbled again. "Stay close." Zidane ordered.
