Ben's hand on her head was weird, the notion nearly causing Lilie to erupt into a fit of giggles. Was this his way of comforting her? He sure had a weird way of showing it if that was the case. Still, it did calm her down immensely, and she was all too glad to take his help as she got up on wobbly feet. That said, her eyes widened considerably as he mentioned [i]leaving[/i]. What?! And miss the challenge?! No way, there was no way she was going to leave after going through [i]that[/i]! If anything they [i]had[/i] to succeed now!

[color=00BFFF]"We're gonna keep going and win!"[/color] She told him, filled with confidence once again. [color=00BFFF]"You said you saw something down there, right? This time, let's stay together."[/color]

She beckoned for Ben to stay close before pulling the water from the second pool, bringing it up and surrounding them. With the same motion she used to launch herself before, she made sure to bring them down the same way. It was a little shaky, but they landed in one piece, and Lilie casually flicked the water back to the second pool, making sure their way was clear. She could see the opening Ben had mentioned, as well as the golden light.

[color=00BFFF]"Oh wow..."[/color] Lilie knelt down to look, though she gasped. [color=00BFFF]"Wait a minute...'All that glitters is not gold but hides that which you wish to hold!' So that means [i]this[/i] is what we're looking for! Come on!"[/color] She didn't bother waiting for any confirmation, hurriedly crawling through the opening.
