They all started talking about their adventures. Rose warned them about the sea monster but the others felt it's not believable. They thought that the sun was playing tricks on them. That ti Emma and Scarlett told them about the wolf. It was a little acceptable because it's possible to have wolves in the jungle. Layla felt the sll from Sophie and Layla smiled an evil smile at her.
Jude ntioned about the river that he saw. As the group discussed Jude's discovery of the river and the possibility of bathing in its clear waters, excitent rippled through their midst. The prospect of washing away the gri and sweat of their journey filled them with renewed energy and anticipation, and they eagerly made plans to visit the river together.
However, their excitent was tempered by the realization that Hailey and Grace had yet to return from their task of gathering logs and vines. Concern etched itself onto their faces as they exchanged worried glances, wondering what could have delayed their companions.
Just as they were about to set out in search of Hailey and Grace, the two won suddenly appeared, their faces flushed with exertion as they sprinted towards the group. Relief flooded through the others as they watched them approach, their fears allayed by their safe return.
Breathless and panting, Hailey and Grace explained that they had been delayed by the unexpected discovery of a hidden stash of vines, which they had eagerly gathered in their haste to return to the group. Grace said one more thing,
"Look guy's, I don't know how to explain this but even if I tell you, I don't think you guys are going to believe . I'm not the only one who saw it. Hailey also saw it."
Layla said,
"Just don't tell that you saw a monster!"
Hailey and Grace beca amazed. Hailey asked,
"How did you know we are going to say that?"
Layla said,
"We have already seen sothing like that ourselves. Emma and Scarlett saw a Giant wolf. Either this island is playing tricks on us or we are so lucky that nothing has seen us so far. What is that you saw? A fish monster or a wolf."
Grace ca forward and said,
"None. It's a giant spider. It's big enough to eat an elephant."
They discussed it for a while. All of them were feared, but still they accepted the fact that there was nothing they could do about it. So they decided to move on as it is.
With everyone accounted for, the group set off towards the river once more, their spirits buoyed by the prospect of bathing in its refreshing waters. As they made their way through the dense foliage, their laughter and chatter filled the air, a testant to the bond that had ford among them in the face of adversity.
As the group made their way towards the river, their attention was suddenly drawn to a peculiar sight, a rock that glead in the sunlight, its surface polished to a mirror-like sheen. Intrigued by its appearance, so of them speculated that it might be a precious gemstone, their imaginations running wild with the possibility of untold riches hidden within its depths.
Curiosity piqued, they gathered around the rock, examining it from all angles in search of clues to its origin. So reached out tentatively to touch its smooth surface, while others marveled at their reflections shimring back at them as though from a looking glass.
Among them, Jude watched from a distance, his gaze lingering on the enigmatic rock with a sense of unease gnawing at his insides. He couldn't shake the feeling that there was sothing off about it, sothing that didn't quite sit right with him.
As they continued to scrutinize the rock, Jude's mind raced with questions. Why hadn't he noticed it before? And what could possibly account for its unnaturally shiny appearance? With a sense of foreboding weighing heavy on his heart, he resolved to keep a wary eye on the mysterious rock, wary of the secrets it might hold beneath its polished facade.
Alia asked,
"Why didn't you ntion anything about this Rock Sophie?"
Sophie said,
"I didn't see this one. I guess this isn't the path we ca last ti."
Hannah looked at Jude and asked,
"Did you see this, boy?"
Jude nodded in saying no. They all wondered and looked at it with curiosity.
Layla ca closer to it and looked into it. She felt sothing was changing. She looked closely and saw her reflection. But it was different this ti. She saw a younger version of herself. She said,
"Guys look, this is a special rock. I'm seeing my younger self."
Susan ca and looked but she was seeing Layla's reflection as the sa as she was now. She said,
"I think you are seeing visions. I'm Still seeing your sa face in the reflection."
The others said the sa thing as well. But when Susan looked at it closer. She saw her reflection changing. Within seconds she saw herself as a younger form. She said,
"I think I'm having a vision too. I'm seeing my younger form."
The others started looking at it and they all saw their younger forms in different ages. Serina said she saw her older form. That ti grace ca to a conclusion. She said,
"Guys I think this stone isn't showing our younger forms, it shows us the form we desire. We can see ourselves in it as the age we wanted. This is one of the island's special stones. But in the stone only the person can see their desired version. I don't know the purpose of it and I don't know how this rock is doing it. But I know this island is so kind of magic."
They all agreed to what grace said. But they were marveling at its power. Susan looked back at Jude and said,
"Co on Jude, you try it too."
Jude said,
"Oh no. I don't want to see my younger form when I'm already young."
Susan smiled and said,
"Just get over here."
Jude ca to the rock with half a mind. He didn't care about the rock's power. Still he looked into it. He saw his form. Then it started changing. Within seconds he saw a burning skull instead of his face.
He beca shocked…
