Gideon entered a meditative state but this time it was different. He was suddenly in a hall and at the end of it was around table with a man sitting at position opposite him. Gideon recognized him as Arthur, the spirit that had assisted him before he had entered Magnolia. "Arthur? What are you...wait what am I doing here?" Arthur stood and moved over to Gideon, both of the men meeting in the middle of the hall. 

Arthur spoke. "Ahh Gideon it seems you may have crossed over into the spirit realm somehow." Gideon looked over Arthur's shoulder and saw a couple of his blades sitting in chairs with shining outlines around them that looked as if they were human shaped. Gideon almost spoke but Arthur made him face him. "Come now Gideon you have a very daunting task ahead and you mustn't deplete your magic like that. Why if Merlin were here he would be scolding you! Now I believe that your friends are getting ready to leave and that you should be topped up on all the magic power you will need." Arthur smiled at him and walked him to the end of the hall and opened the door to it. A white light burst into the hall and Gideon covered his eyes for a moment until he felt the light and it didn't hurt him. He looked into it and nodded back to Arthur. 

"Alright Arthur. Once I figure out how to return here we need to have a talk." Gideon said right before he heard his friend's voice on the other side of the door saying they needed to go and Gideon walked into the light. 

In the real world Gideon gasped for air for a second and his eyes burst open. White light shown from them for a second then went back to normal. Gideon jumped to his feet and went to the coach. "All aboard! We need to get to the boat!" He said as he hooked the cuff to his arm. 

Everyone boarded the coach and they were off leaving Donna in the distance. She finally seemed like she had hope or something. Either way she had to be feeling better that they were off to recover her lost property. Gideon had a bad feeling that there was way more to this than either she was letting on or that she even knew herself. Donna didn't notice the shaking like everyone else did. Even his spirit Fate had known. 

Once they had reached the boat they boarded and paid their fair. It didn't take long to get to the island as it was just three or four miles out into the water. Mist surrounded it in the night and the moon shown bright. Once they stepped on the island the mist seemed to create space around them and offered a tunnel for them to travel through. The tunnel on the beach lead them to a path out side of the mist that was warn but seemed to have grown in the passed week maybe month. Gideon couldn't really tell but it seemed that the island wanted them to go this way. 

They continued through the path and found a lake. Gideon spotted close to the lake that there was an opening. It looked as if it didn't belong and Gideon figured they should check it out so he waved over the others and went into the cave. Upon entering the hole they found a cave, but it wasn't naturally made it seemed. Gideon had spent his fair share of nights in caves. This one looked man made by magic or something. Suddenly the ground shook knocking Gideon and the others to their back or knees. The shaking was growing more violent. Until now they had been able to withstand it but it was definitely becoming more bothersome. As Gideon and the others got to their feet they heard a voice crying. Creepy...and what made it worse was that it was a child by the sound of it. Gideon gulped hard but stood. He re-quipped a sword he had in his arsenal and slide his fingers down the blade. The blade began to glow in the darkness of the cave and lit there way forward. The crying grew louder until they came around the bend and found a little girl wearing a glowing bracelet. She was shaking something fierce and her face was stained with mud and tears. Her eyes grew more scared as they found her. Rocks behind the girl moved and she let out a shriek of terror. Then came a deep gruff voice.

[color=a0410d]"I told the woman not to send anyone or the child's life is forfeit" The rocks moved more and then a wizard came into view floating down on a platform made of them.[/color] The little girl screamed again this time the wizard turned to her and with a sneer on his face flung his hand up and mud and rock formed a band around her mouth that silenced her. [color=a0410d]"Ahh that is so much better." He said with a sigh of relief. "Now one of you shall live long enough to tell that pathetic woman that her child is dead and that I now posses the her family's treasure! The rest of you shall die with the child!" He turned to the child. "See little one you won't die alone. These nice strangers have come to carry you to your grave." He then turned to them again. "Now choose with one of you shall leave so I can kill the others!"[/color]

Yup this guy was nuts. Gideon re-quiped to Excalibur and stood ready to fight the mage. "None shall be harmed while I'm around. Well unless you count yourself and that hideous hair of yours!" Gideon shouted at the man and was ready to fight but needed to make sure that the others were too. "Come on guys time to earn our keep!"
