I heard the monks get back, but I didn't pay them any attention.
Or at least I didn't until I heard Blis holler, "EMILY! What did you do to the wall in here!?!" I got up and walked back to the room where the bean had been. Blis and everyone else was standing there looking from me to the wall and back again. "What happened?" Blis asked again.
I shrugged. "A bean." They looked at me. "A... bean?" I nodded. "Yes Blis, a bean. A gross, talking, brown, shriveled bean with tentacles for arms and a bird sitting on his shoulder." I tossed Blis her diary. "He said he was looking for this."
Blis frowned. "Why would he want this?"
I shrugged again and started walking away. "How should I know? I didn't stop to ask what he wanted with it."
Blis followed me. "You fought him for it?" She asked.
I snorted. "Don't be ridiculous, Blis. Of course I didn't. I acted like I was Clay's stupid blonde sister, and told him I didn't know where it was." I laughed a little. "You should have seen his face Blis, when I asked him if he wanted me to ask around for it. It was priceless!"
We both had a good laugh at that. The others used a Wu to fix the hole in the wall, and then they came outside to where Blis and I were talking. Clay pulled the Wu they had gotten out of his pocket. It looked like a mask that would fit over part of a person's face.
"What's it called?" I asked.
"The Mask of Yin," replied Dojo. "I think it's part of a duo, but I can't remember exactly..." he trailed off.
"What does it do?" Everyone shrugged.
"We don't know. The scroll didn't say and Dojo can't remember," said Kimi.
I shrugged and everyone soon forgot about the strange Wu after it was placed in the vault. However, just because we did, doesn't mean that everyone did. In fact, far from it.
