"Hey guys, is anyone a little queasy after that portal trip?" Timmy asked rubbing his tummy.
"No," everyone answered looking at one another.
"Oh, no. My poor Timmy. Are you going to be sick?"
"No, Tecna I'll be fine."
"Well, if we're done with that, let's get moving. This is getting boring already," Riven said as he crossed his arms.
" Well, I have the list of ingredients we need to get from the HollowGround Realm," Flora exclaimed. She started reading off the list, so everyone would know what to look for.
"Ok, lets go," Sky said as he started walking. Everyone started to follow, when out of no where there was a scream.
"STELLA," Brandon shouted running over to her.
" I stepped in this nasty guck. YUCK! This Realm is so icky."
"Oh, get over it Stella. I don't what to hear your whiny, annoying voice," Layla exclaimed.
Stella and Brandon stood there, with their mouths gaped open.
"LAYLA!" Musa screeched angrily.
"Somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed," Riven murmured under his breath.
"What's wrong with you Layla? You usually don't act like this," Flora said walking up to Layla.
" I don't know, I guess I'm stressed."
"If you're stressed, you could talk to us Layla. You don't have to act this way,"Bloom said.
"Well, it sounds like you're jealous of me. That's what it sounds like," Stella said pointing out a fact.
"JEALOUS OF YOU! Yea Right," Layla replied rolling her eyes. "As if."
"Ok, how about we split up into groups," Helia suggested speaking up for the first time.
" I think that's a great idea. Helia and Flora you could go with Layla to find the grape rock. Brandon and Stella you could pair up with Bloom and me. Timmy and Tecna could go with Riven and Musa to look for the magic string beans," Sky replied.
" That sounds good to me. Come on, Brandon, let's go," Stella said grabbing Brandon's hand.
The three groups started off in different directions and each of the groups were so preoccupied with Layla's strange behavior, they didn't notice the guy standing behind the trees watching them.
