Chapter 2 - Where are we?

Lilian and Stephanie were now both falling from the sky. The serene night sky was pierced by their Both of them were screaming as they were rapidly falling. "Oh My Gosh Oh My Gosh Oh My Gosh Oh My Gosh Oh My Gosh Oh My Gosh-" Stephanie was stammering as she then went back to screaming while Lilian on the other hand stopped screaming with his eyes darting everywhere trying to find a way to soften their fall. And as both kids fall through clouds they finally see the green ground rapidly approaching them as both kids start to scream and panic even more. Lilian leaned to his side trying to maneuver himself close to Stephanie, he then held her hand with fear visible in his face as Stephanies had tears and fear as well.

But suddenly, both kids now landed upon a soft object as they slipped down on different leaves which slowly decreased their momentum as they now landed upon a large patch of BlueBells. Lilian and Stephanie groaned as they slowly moved and are trying to sit up. Lilian was the first as he rubbed his head trying to minimize the headache he is having. He then looked down on what saved them from their fall. He ran his hand through the BlueBells as by impossible odds the flowers that he touched suddenly emanated a soft blue glow. He was mesmerized by the odd phenomenon happening in front of him.

Stephanie's groans caught his attention as he quickly went to her. "Stephanie are you okay?" Lilian said as he assisted her in sitting up. Stephanie's dress had cuts and rips all over it with dirt and all over it and on her face with some leaves and what seemed to be petals stuck on her hair.

Stephanie groaned as she tried to scratch her head but suddenly gave off a small yelp of pain as she quickly tried to hold her back. Lilian then went behind her and saw a thin gash that went from the top right of her shoulder to the middle of the back. "Ok don't move." Lilian then took out the handkerchief from the pocket inside his tuxedo. "What why? What are doi-." Stephanie then gave off a painful yelp as Lilian starts to wipe the dirt around the wound but still touched the wound. "Hold on just let me wipe the dirt away," Lilian said he finished wiping the dirt off, he then helped Stephanie stand up.

"Thanks, Lilian, but where the hell are we?" Stephanie said as both of them looked around their surroundings. They were in what seemed to be a forest. The trees were as large as buildings with their trunks with the circumference large enough to fit two cars. Roots were jotting of the ground but were covered with shrubbery and grass. But the intimidating trees and shrubs were decorated with different flowers which emanated different hues of light, as many fireflies were dancing around the air with some resting on flowers but most off them just flying around the forest air casting a cast of different colors of light on the dark forest. The light made the atmosphere of the whole forest dramatically change from tense to relaxing and dream like.

Both kids were so enchanted by the sight as Lilian approached one of the bushes to get a closer look at the different flowers as Stephanie played with the flower flies. As the kids move, the BlueBells start to glow with a midnight blue color. Lilian then bent down as he focused upon a particular flower that took his attention. The flower had white petals which slowly changes to red as it approaches the tips, the filaments of the flowers slowly danced around the stigma of their own will. Against his better judgment, Lilian decided to reach out his finger and try to touch the flower. As his finger touched the filaments, they start to brush themselves against his finger. The sensation slightly tickled Lilian's finger as the filaments brushed themselves against his finger. Suddenly the stigma of the flower starts to touch the tip of Lilia's finger and suddenly the filaments start to leave small orbs of white light with red streaks. The orbs then slowly rolled down his finger as Lilian open his hand as the orbs now rolled down and stopped at the middle of his palm. The small orbs of light felt warm in Lilans hand as he then felt a wave of calmness wash over him. The orbs twinkled on Lilian's hand as she then called Stephanie to see what he had obtained.

"Woah! Lilian that is amazing." Stephanie said as she outstretched her hand as few orbs floated down her hand. She then closed her eyes as she had a face of relief as she gave off a sigh. "These are beautiful Lilian," Stephanie said as she then had a weird feeling on her back. "Lilian can you check my back, something feels weird at the wound area." Lilian then walked behind her and saw the wound emanating the same light the orbs were emanating as well. Lilian then had an idea as he then brought one orb and placed it on top of the wound. Stephanie gave of a small and cute yelp as she slightly jolted from the orb. "Wh-what did you do Lilian?! What did you place on my back?" But Stephanie's small rant then quickly disappeared as she then felt a small sense of relief.

Lilian then saw the wound start to glow and the wound is now slowly healing itself. Lilian just watched in shock and disbelief as the wound now was completely gone and healed. "Lilian?" Stephanie asked as he was now suddenly quiet.

"T-Try moving your arm."

"Are you serious? Well, ok."

Stephanie slowly moved her arm expecting the pain but was surprised to feel nothing, she then started rotating her arm and stretching but only felt relief and no pain. She then turned around with shock and a smile at Lilian. "What did you do?!" She asked Lilian who only pointed at the orbs in his hand.

Stephanie then looked at the orbs and the ones at her own hand. "These are...no matter what they are, they are very useful."

Stephanie then looked at Lilian with an idea on her head. "We should get more Lilian, I mean, these are basically medicine that can easily heal wounds. Let's get more from the flower." Stephanie said as she starts to approach the flowers.

"Stephanie wait," Lilian said as she turned towards him. "I know these...things are literally miracle workers, but we have to find a way out of here and get back to the mansion." Stephanie was about to argue but when she saw Lilian's eyes as his seriousness she just agreed.

"But first, let's just get a bit more just in case," Stephanie said as she bent down at a flower identical to the flower Lilian saw. She lightly tapped the flower as some orbs fell on her hand, she then went back to Lilian and gave them to him. Lilian then took out the handkerchief and wrapped them up on the clean side.

"Well, now what?" Stephanie asked as they now returned to look around the forest. The change of scenery really didn't help the kids as they struggled on finding the right way to go. But as they talked, some fireflies started flying around which annoyed them as they tried to wave them away. The fireflies then started to fly towards the right side of both to the kids. The fireflies then illuminated what seemed to be a trail path that was covered by bushes but had the bluebells covering the ground.

"Well, I guess we're going that way," Stephanie said as both of them start to walk onto the trail with Bluebells starting to glow in each step they take.
