The Lotus Guardians made it through the narrow hallways of the fourth entrance. There were no torches leading the way, and the hallway and ceiling were getting narrower and narrower as they went further.

I am moving through the crowd
Trying to find myself
Feel like a guitar that's never played
Will someone strum away?

When the Lotus Guardians were halfway there, they collasped. They changed back to their reincarnations.

Kim began to feel tears sufficing from her eyes.

"Kim, what's wrong?" Ron asked.

"I don't wanna be a Lotus Guardian anymore!" Kim sobbed, "It's too much! Why couldn't they choose someone else?"

Ron thought about it, then he said, "Ask yourself, Kim. Who else would you want to be?"

And I ask myself
Who do I wanna be?
Do I wanna throw away the key?
And invent a whole new me?
And I tell myself
No one, No one
Don't wanna be
No one
But me...

Kim thought about it. Then, she scoffed a laugh. "I guess I wouldn't be anything else, would I?"

"See what I mean?" Ron asked, "You're great as Miriam Spirit's reincarnation. And, you're great as a Lotus Guardian. C'mon! You're a Possible! You can do anything!"

Kim couldn't help but giggle.

Ron smiled. "C'mon. Let's continue. We're smaller than our carnations. We can make it through."

You are moving through the crowd
Trying to find yourself
Feel like a doll left on a shelf
Could someone take you down

When they were past halfway there, Kim collasped to the ground, weak.

"C'mon, Kim!" Ron encouraged, helping her up, "You can do it. We're almost there!"

"I can't! I can't!" Kim cried weakly.

"Yes, you can!" Yori replied, helping Kim up, "You can do it!"

Kim thought about what Ron said earlier, and forced herself back to her feet.

And you ask yourself
Who do you wanna be?
Do you wanna throw away the key?
And invent a whole new me?
Gotta tell yourself
No one, no one
Don't wanna be
No one
But me...

When they reached an opening, it was dark, and shadows were scattered on the walls, ceilings, and floors.

Ron took out the Lotus Flower. It was glowing, illuminating the whole room, and perishing the shadows.

Your life lays out on the shadows on the walls
Turn the light on to release it all
Wonder what it's like to feel worthless
So open all the blinds
And turn the curtains

With the light of the Lotus Flower leading their way, the Lotus Guardians continued.

No one, no one
Don't wanna be
No one
But me...

Finally, the Lotus Guardians made it past the darkness, and continued down the torch lit hallways.

When you're moving through the crowd...
