"What? Are you chicken?" Derick asked when Luna hesitated.
"Me? Scared? I don't think so." Luna said. What am I saying? They want me to go into the cloister of trials! Betty would kill me, but I can't back down. I know that I'm tougher than these guys, but this might be taking it too far. Only a Summoner and her gaurdians can go in there, and there's no way that I'm gonna be a Summoner, Luna thought."Ok, I'm going in." Luna said, looking around to make sure that there were no priests looking or coming her way. She climbed the stairs and then turned to look at Derick. Derick had dark brown hair that was cut short and deep blue eyes. He was a little over five foot tall and very tan due to all the time he spent in the sun.
He was two years older than Luna, but she didn't care. She hoped to take the secret that she had a crush on him to her grave.Matt looked at her and motioned for her to go on. Matt was a good five inches shorter than Derick, which wasn't all that bad, considering that he was the same age and Luna. He had light blonde hair with light blue eyes. Luna would admit that Matt wasn't all that bad looking, but not as good looking as Derick. Luna turned back around and opened the door. She walked in and shut it lightly behind her, so as to not attract attention. She walked to the back of the room and thought,
This is a rook! There's nothing here! Just as she was going to leave, the floor began to move beneath her. That was when she realized that she was standing on a platform. When she stopped, she turned around to see another room that was lit by torches. She saw a door on the other end of the room. She walked off the platform and to the other end of the room.She reached the door and said,
"What am I doing? I'm breaking a sacred ritual. Well, I'm here, might as well keep going." She opened the door and entered the next room. She heard a crackle and looked through the doorway into the room after the room she had just entered. At the back of the room, there was a huge fire raging. It was from one wall to the other.
She saw a glyph sphere on either wall to her left and right. she walked into the next room and looked around. Luna saw a Kilika sphere on the far right wall and figured that it was what was making the fire rage. She walked over and removed it from the wall. The fire partially went out as she waked over to the small pillar that was sittning in the middle of the room. She set the Kilika sphere in the pillar and tried to think.
Luna leaned up against the pillar to think and it moved, which gave him an idea. She pushed the pillar until it stopped, then she went to the left side of it and began to push it again. She pushed it until it was almost up against the wall. By this time, she was next to the hole in which the kilika sphere once sat. Luna moved back behind the pillar and pushed it over the edge. After it fell, the fire went completely out.
Luna looked across and saw another door. She figured that the door was locked. She crossed to the other side of the room and then went down the steps to the space in which the fire had been. She went across the hall-like space and mounted the stairs. She walked up to the door and tried to see if there was a lock on the door, but all she saw was a hole in the right side in the door jam.
She went back down the stairs and to where the pillar had fallen. There in the wall to her left was another Kilika sphere. She took it and went back to the door. She set the sphere in the door and it went up in flames.
Luna jumped at the sight and sound of the fire. As she stood there waiting for her heart to to stop racing, she thought,
Now what do I do? Should I turn back before I get into any more trouble? I don't think that I can get into anymore trouble than this. Now, how do I get this fire to go away? Maybe if I take the sphere back out... To Luna's surprise, it worked. She looked behind her and then climbed the stairs to the next room.
