May 15, 3031 - Country C, City H

Stepping out of the SUV, she looked like a typical hiker in shorts and t-shirt, enjoying a casual stroll with nature. She looked at the park's map as she pulled her bandana up to cover her face and headed to her destination.

Once she arrived at the site of the post, she hid behind some dense foliage and jumped into the space to change into the second set of older hiking clothes. She changed everything from heads to toe looking completely different than from how she entered the park.

It was Saturday morning just after 9AM so it wasn't that busy yet. But the path she chose was out of the way and not as popular as the rest which has views of the popular waterfall.

Arriving at the famous sign post, she took out her phone and started recording like she is a streamer. First showing the beautiful sweeping view from the top of the signpost and ended up with pointing up at the sign post itself before the camera shook crazily as she suddenly slid down the side of the steep hill.

Unlike Stephen Xing who did not expect to fall down the mountain, Aria was prepared, so she strategically and nimbly 'slipped' down the hill avoiding the foliage that Stephen Xing landed on by landing on a flat piece of dirt instead.

Aria: "Ouch!"

The phone was held by Aria throughout the fall and she made a point to angle it close to her face. The purpose was to allow the viewers to see that she was injured and not faking it. Like she was still recovering from a bad fall, after a few minutes she finally stirred and the phone shook before moving the view on the screen changed again, jerking up sharply to a certain direction accompanied by a gasp of surprise.

The camera captured a small beautiful bush full of flowers and rainbow crystals.

She quickly approached it and zoomed in closer to the plant: leaves, flowers, and gems were fully captured and explored. The lens moved abruptly, very excited like she found something amazing and is overwhelmed.

She then did everything that the original Stephen Xing did. Recording it in every angle, picking the leaves and crushing it using her accessorized left hand, picking the gem, showing it with the sun lit the background, light going through the gem.

Then using the walking stick to start digging the plant out with one hand, clearly showing the dirt was not disturbed beforehand. After recording another 5 minutes of her careful digging and showing the roots, which has a glowy crystalized blue vein like pulse, she also punctured a small root, showing the same translucent blue liquid that also glowed mysteriously seeping out.

She did everything she could to make everyone see that the plant was authentic and unusual and magical.

Then she stopped that long video. She then took a shorter video of the plant itself lasting 15 seconds and took a bunch of photos to post later on her twitter account.

Tossing the stone into her space, she quickly took out the black plastic bag and covered the whole bush with it, so that if anyone came by they wouldn't be attracted to the gems reflecting the lights. Rubbing her already exhausted body from the first night of binding, she started working.

Then she took out the shovel and proceeded to dig around the bush, giving enough padding space to not damage the roots. 5 minutes later, the plant was successfully uprooted. It wasn't a large bush so the roots weren't that deep. She then took out the planter and packed dirt inside before placing the plant into it.

Finally she stored the plant into her storage space.

Looking around to make sure she didn't miss anything, and doubting that she'll find anything else since Stephen Xing didn't the first time around.

Huh? But what is that?

Close to the location of where Stephen Xing originally landed after his fall, there was a small fragile plant that seems to have something shimmering between the long thin leaves. Upon closer observation, she saw multiple small multicolored beads peeking through the dense thin leaves.

The beads looked like pieces of jade, the size of her pinky finger. Jade!

Aria's breath hitches in surprise as she realizes what she's seeing. There were two different plants, not one at this location!!!

One is the original gem bush and the other is this unknown plant that produces jade from the looks of it. Aria laughed in amusement as she thought of what Stephen Xing's face would've looked like if he knew this fact. Haha!

Quickly digging up the plant, she potted it and placed it inside her space as well.

Wiping her forehead, she looked at the dirt. She knew how important this dirt was since this was Stephen Xing's downfall the last time.

Not knowing how to proceed. After some thought she took the shovel and started drawing a large rectangle around the two plant's then gridding it to approximately the same size as the large dirt containers. Jumping into her space she unstacked the 50 containers and placed them on the floor. She consciously made a copy of one of the container just in case. She left the space and continued on her plan.

Then she concentrated on each rectangle dirt and imagined them to be stored into the first container in her storage. The dirt disappeared in a perfect shape. She jumped back into the space to see if the dirt was placed correctly and saw that it was.

Feeling happy to figure out how to efficiently collect the soil so cleanly she continued her actions.

She placed the lid on top and stacked an empty container on top of the full one. Now that she knows that method works, she jumped out of the storage space and quickly stored 25 more rectangle dirt.

Jumping back in to put lids and empty containers of the full one, she jumped out and proceeded to repeat her actions again. By the time she was finished, there was a larger rectangle hole shown on the ground.

It occurred to her that the shape looked too perfect so she took her shovel and went along the side to loosen the dirt unevenly. She did the same thing with the bottom dirt.

Now it looks like a machine came in and disrupted the earth instead of something magical with laser precision moved all the dirt away. Remembering watching a criminal procedure show about how experts can track a person down by their shoes and tracks, she broke a large branch full of thick leaves from a nearby tree and proceeded to brush it all around where she walked. Within minutes, all tracks of her boots were erased.

Taking out the plant, she started recording. She pulled out two tiny flowers with the tiniest stones still attached and threw it at random inside the square pit then she stopped the recording. This was to show the shape and color of each stone she picked for proof.

Tossing her walking sticks into her space, she held onto the branch and made her way up the hill through a different less steep path, sweeping in back of her occasionally.

Ending up at the top of the signpost again, she swept the surrounding areas before moving to the side of the tracks where there was more grass and foliage, changed her outfit back to how she entered the park, and made her way back to the SUV. She then left the parking lot and headed back to City F.

Right after she left the city that the park belonged to, she found another deserted place to change her outfit to jeans, leather shoes, leather jacket, and a motorcycle helmet. Looking at the boxes of containers on the floor, she proceeded to stack them up to the side.

This process was a bit cumbersome since she found out that she has to physically move things by herself while inside the storage space, but if the items were outside and then stored into her space, she can imagine where she wants to place them and they'll be stacked neatly and nicely along the wall. Moving her car to the available space, she stored the SUV and brought out the motorcycle.

While she was doing all of this, she took out her phone to upload to the streaming channel with the title:

["OMG! I found something amazing! A real plant that grows precious stones!"]

By the time she finished arranging everything, the video successfully uploaded. She then copied the link and went to her new pin account.

I was hiking at X Park when I discovered this amazing plant!

Seeing that it was 11AM, she got on the motorcycle and rode back towards City F. The motorcycle was quicker this time around, it only took her 30 minutes to arrive at the same abandoned farm right outside City F again.

She parked, jumped into the space to change back to the original outfit she left with and proceeded to switch cars. Before driving off, she switched back to her prophet twitter account and noticed a few notifications, most of them from the jewel industry.

She then retweeted @xingxing2911's tweet with the message and at the accounts who previously responded to the first pin:

The Xing Plant was discovered.

The images showed screenshots of the plant. Feeling a sudden bout weakness, she got in her car and drove home. She picked up lunch from an italian place and ate while taking out the two Xing plants from the storage and stared at them while she ate. Adding water to both pots, she finally relaxed.

Sorry Stephen Xing.

Since she had a second chance to relive her life, it's just dumb of her not to grab one of the most important discovery in history.

Honestly, even knowing that she went back in time, has 3 lifesaving systems, and a space storage that she can accessed multiple times, but she still didn't fully accept that everything was real and truly happening until she saw the Xing Plant in front of her.

The world is really going to end again.
