"You didn't?" asked Harmony ------------- "Great, thanks for giving me something else to worry about!" joked Melody as she started climbing.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 27

"That's great Dylan," said Miles beaming

Miles smiled and crossed his fingers. ----------- "Maybe, I hope so," said Harmony. "I won't try to hurt anyone else." ------------- "Phew, I thought the ice hotel itself was about to turn on us!"

Good plan! 25

"Give it one more go Dylan. Concentrate hard," said Miles. --------------- "I... I suppose so..." said Harmony. "It's... just a shame..." --------------- Melody paused. "Uh... they're not... frozen... are they?"

"Good luck Dylan" ----------- "I know.. but... no one wants to do it aside from me. Even Melody seems reluctant because of her human friend," said Harmony. ------------- "Oh my way already," said melody as she clambered into the vent and replaces the cover.

"Awwwww," Harmony looked downcast. ------------ Melody made her way to the dresser and picked up the Emerald. "Objective secured!"

"But it's fun... Trying new things, new experiences... It broadens your horizons," argued Harmony. "Nope, still creepy," said Anna. ------------ Melody quietly removed the vent grill and slipped into the room.

"But... in controlled circumstances..." began Harmony. Anna shook her head. "Nope, still weird!" -------------- Melody crossed here fingers

"Yeah... I suppose,... the conditions weren't quite right," admitted Harmony. ----------- "Great. Standing by Hope."

Sounds like 'fun' 23

"Me to," said Anna shuddering. "And my sisters LIKE that sorta thing." "Why not, it's fun," said Harmony ------------- "That gives us an advatage there. I'm at the bottom, which way now?"

"Don't worry, that's to be expected Dylan," said Miles ------------- "That pool is creepy," said Anna ----------- "Our friends from the station?"

"Here you go. Good luck," said Miles handing it over. ------------- "Sorry Zamy. I'll wait too," said Anna. ------------- "Thanks. I think my gloves do grip to ice," said Melody as she started climbing down the hole.

*laughs* 21

"Okay," said Miles writing out another spell. "This one will be harder. It might take several goes."

WE MUST TRY HARDER! 19

Anna turned. *I don't know. It might be a while..." --------------- "Hmm, that would be a little advanced for you Dylan. But I could teach you a spell to create normal flowers," said Miles. ------------- "I'll try," said Melody as she neared the drop.

We must forego sleep! 17

"I hope so too," said Anna ------------ "A drop?" asked Melody as she kept going

"I guess, year.... I'm just unlucky!" said Anna ------------- Melody laughed. "I wasn't expecting to climb around an ice cave. Okay, heading right now."

"That and, well, being a multiple kidnap victim," said Anna, then she laughed. "I never thought of myself as a damsel in distress!" ----------- "Yeah, but it's kinda slippy in here!"

"Well, uh..." Anna twiddled her fingers nervously. --------------- "Got it," said Melody, opening a grate and heading into the vents. "Is this whole hotel made of ice???"

Now we keep moving on 14
