..."and the last one was just checked out yesterday."
Nodding, Keyana sighed, "Do you know when it will be in next?"
The shop keeper shook his head, "I don't have any idea, the best thing to do would be to come back in a couple of weeks, or if you really need it you can chance a meeting with the old lady who lives outside of the town."
Smiling she turned to walk out of the store, "Thanks!"

Etels trudged through the mud, panting heavily. "Just who thinks about placing a SWAMP in the middle of nowhere?! Sheesh, and the fact that the nearest town is through this swamp... Makes me want to fly. But I can't do that, can I?" he said to himself, as he stopped on a small, dry patch of land. "Oh, wait, I can, technically. But I don't want to scare anyone, so..." With that, he continued walking through the mud. "I think it's just a little further..."

Pushing open the door, Keyana took a breath of the fresh air, "It's nice to smell clean air again, the shop smelled so musty."
Bringing her hand up to her forehead she scanned the area of the town. Seeing trees she started to jog towards them, "That lady probably lives out there in the forest somewhere."

"Well, isn't THIS a surprise." Etels said to himself, as he was stuck knee-high in a puddle of what seemed to be tar. "How did I even get into this mess?" Then he suddenly remembered that he had been chasing a small bird because he was hungry, and that led to him being stuck in the tar. "Oh yeah." he sighed, as he was now halfway from sinking below the surface. Well, if someone doesn't find me, then- Wait, I forgot!" Stretching his hand forward, he managed to somehow create a clone of himself from it, which landed on some land close-by. "Sweet, Steel Bunshin worked!" Then, a whip of steel ejected from Etels' body, before hitting the clone, who proceeded to walk towards the woods close-by, which slowly got Etels out of the tar-like substance.

Slowing down when she finally made it into the forest, she bent down to catch her breath. "I never realized how far the forest actually was."
Straightening back up she took off in the direction she thought she heard a voice in, 'Is this where that old lady lives, or is it just somebody else?'

"Phew, thanks a bunch." Etels said to the clone as he looked towards the puddle he was earlier in danger of drowning in.
"Anytime, Etels!" the clone said, before forcibly entering Etels' body, vanishing.
"Hmph... I suppose letting my clones enter my body whenever they want isn't the smartest thing... Oh well! Onward to adventure!" he said, before heading into the forest.

After she had walked for awhile she came upon a huge house. Looking up she couldn't help but gasp, "Man that's a huge house!" Regaining her composure, she walked up to the door and knocked.
Waiting a couple minutes she knocked again when nobody answered. Leaning up on to her tippy toes she pressed her hands against the door and looked into the peephole. Seeing nobody she was about to turn around and go back until the door opened, sending her flying into the house with a loud bang. "OUCH!"

Etels calmly walked through the forest, whilstling a catchy tune. However, after he entered a clearing, his whistling died down, and he came to a stunning realization... "I'm lost." With that, he threw some grey thing on the ground, and it flew sky high, before suddenly flying down again. Now there stood words on it, which Etels quickly deciphered. "A house dead ahead? I'm going there!" With that, he went off.

Pushing herself up off the ground she winced and brought her hand up to her head. Pulling her hand away she saw blood. "Great, just what I needed."
Turning towards where she had fallen she saw a lady and a broken vase. Running over she bent down to help her up, "I'm so sorry! Are you okay?"

"Okay, if I'm not mistaken..." Etels said to himself, as he waded himself through the forest, looking for the house he had heard about, "it should be right..." Once he said that, he fell and landed near a house. "Here! Now, I'll just have to act carefully..." he said to himself, as he slowly crept closer to the house.

Pushing off her help, the lady stood up and pointed towards the door, "OUT!"
Wincing, Keyana shook her head, "I'm sorry but I can't I have too..."
The lady cut her off, "I SAID OUT!! OUT!!"
Getting angry she glared and yelled, "I CAN'T!"
Quieting down the lady looked towards her with a glare, "Why not...?"
Sighing, she tried to explain, "You see I'm kind of looking for a certain book, and apparently the library ddoesn't ahve any right now. It's the kind that can draw a map of where a person is that you are seeking."
The lady smirked, "There's no such book in the library, the person who was helping you just didn't want you to get angry, and now that I've told you this, get OUT!"
"One more thing, you 'll be replacing the vase that you broke."

Hearing loud noises from within the house, Etels decided to investigate. He crept close to the door, and peeked in, where he saw two people, both female, one of them seemingly not welcome. Keeping a low profile, Etels implanted some steel in the ground where he was laying, and it silently opened, allowing him to hide in the hole, which closed itself, save for a small hole he could watch out from.

Sighing in frustration, Keyana glared, "I wont pay for it unless you tell me what I want to know! I need that to find a certain man, and until I find him I can't rest easy!"
Grunting, the lady glared, "Replace my vase, let me bandage your head and then we'll talk, I don't think you'll leave until you get what you want."
Nodding in thanks, she followed after the lady, "By the way, what do I call you?"
Quickly galncing back at Keyana, she narrowed her eyes, "Cecil, now don't talk unless spoken too."
Keyana glared and bit her lip to refrain from saying anything, 'This lady is getting on my last nerve...'

"Hm. This could be interesting." Etels said to himself as the pair left the scene. "I'd best follow them." he said to himself, as he dug himself underneath the house in hot pursuit in order to see what would happen.

Making it to the living room, Cecil pointed to the couch, "Sit and don't move, your in my house, you obey my rules. I'll go and get something to bandage the cut on your head."
"I'm fi...ack!"
Her eyes widened as Cecil turned a butcher knife to her throat, "Rule number 1, when told not to talk, don't. I don't care if it's just a little cut, we're fixing it up before you get blood on my carpets, understand?"
Nodding, Keyana sighed in relief when she pulled the knife away, and walked back towards the bathroom. 'I'm gonna die before I get my answers, or that lady is.'
