"What do we do with it?" Isabella asked while Penelope kept staring in awe. "I don't know," Penelope responded. "Can you take the power?" Isabella asked, "I mean how else are we going to bring the soul to light?" "Let's ask Juniper." Penelope answered. "Yeah, okay, but what are we going to do to that?" Isabella questioned. "Um...here I'll think of something," Penelope responded. Penelope let the ball float into the air. She closed her eyes and casted a fire. She thought of a spell and released the fire onto the ground. The fire floated downward and picked up air and leaves. The leaves arranged themselves into a cube. A cube a little bigger than the ball of fire and light. The cube wrapped itself around the ball.
After the cube wrapped itself, it fell straight down to the floor. Penelope grabbed the cube. Penelope and Isabella nodded to each other. They started walking with Isabella leading. Isabella knew where to find Juniper from earlier. They heard footsteps come near. They looked at each other for a minute. Penelope signaled to Isabella with an eye movement to start running. Penelope and Isabella started running. Quickly, Penelope started running out of breath. Isabella looked at her for a moment to as say, seriously? Penelope stopped and shrugged at her.
Isabella slowed down. "Why are you running from me?" a familiar voice asked. Penelope looked back and saw the pink-haired Amber. Amber was wearing a flannel with a black shirt underneath that had a full moon on it, black jeans, and red sneakers. "What are you doing here?" Penelope asked back. "You weren't here for two days, I was worried." Amber answered, "What is that?" Amber pointed at the cube. "It's actually a long story," Penelope responded, "You probably don't want to hear about it but it explains a lot and is kinda weird." "I feel like I should probably hear about it." Amber stated. "Ok, so there's this magic system about light and fire and basically this is a soul. There's a really long version of this but I don't want to overwhelm." Penelope answered.

"Can this soul bring my brother back to life?" Amber questioned looking at the cube. "Maybe," Penelope responded. Amber looked at the cube for another second then as soon as she could took the cube. Amber started running with it back from where she came from. Penelope and Isabella looked at each other confused about what just happened. Penelope started chasing after Amber. Isabella followed. Penelope started running out of breath but continued. She continued to think about how this is the only way to let her sister go and that pushed her to continue to run. Penelope started to see Amber's car. Amber opened her car. Penelope couldn't let her go.
Penelope ran as hard as she could and grabbed Amber's flannel. Penelope made Amber slam into the car door. Penelope looked at Amber angrily and made her drop the cube. Penelope grabbed it but as soon as she did Amber slammed her body into Penelope's. Amber grabbed the cube and then kicked Penelope away from the car. Amber got in and started driving. Penelope grabbed her stomach in pain. Isabella ran over to Penelope. "Are you okay?" she asked. "No," Penelope responded with sadness. Isabella hugged Penelope. Penelope hugged back and started crying.
