Starlite looked around at the ruin that was once Rainbow Land. All color had been drained from every living thing, and it had curled under the ground leaving only the harsh dirt and stone. The Pits had truly swallowed Rainbow Land and the site of this destruction made his heart ache.
"How could this have happened to quickly?" Brian asked.
"The Belt." Rainbow replied. "It holds the power to make or break Rainbow Land. When it the right hands the world is beautiful, but in the wrong, it is a cold land of destruction. It brings out the worst in people. Like when Spectra was almost taken. The cold depressing isolation, and it all starts here. I have to get my belt back. It's the only way."
"Do you have a plan?" Brian asked. "I'm working on one, but first we had better get out of this cold. Once inside, we need to find the kids." Brian nodded and Starlite ran to the entrance. The door, now and iron twist of metal loomed above them. "I take it he's ready for what ever we would ever have planed, so keep your guard up." Rainbow said and pushed hard opening the iron gate. Once inside Starlite shook off the water that soaked him and Brian pulled his damp letterman's jacket off and draped the draping coat over his arm.
"Which way to the mine carts?" Brian asked. Rainbow looked around her. The interior of the Color Castle was completely different. The Pits had changed it into something dark and depressing.
"I'm not sure, in our Color Castle it was over that way," she said pointing to the left. Brian stepped over the arch to the next room and Rainbow saw that the blue rug, the only piece of color she could see fell from under him and he disappeared down a deep hole.
"BRIAN!" She called. She could hear him call as fell deeper down. "Brian are you okay!" She called own the hole.
"Yeah." A faint call came back. Rainbow examined the hold; such a Juvenile trick must have been the work of Murky and Lurky.
"What do you see down there?" She called But no one replied. "Brian.Brain.. BRIAN!"
"They must have taken him prisoner, like the Kids." Starlite said.
"We have to find the Color Crystal room, and find some evidence of where they may be, we also need to help Wisp. She is alone out in that cold." Starlite nodded and they carefully made it back through the maze that was now the Color Castle.
