...The Mysterious Creature...

When Aaron went back after putting Laila in bed, he noticed Dylan's frustration:

- Are you okay?

- What if something went wrong and she fell...what if she died. I was so reckless, I shouldn't put her life in danger if I'm not strong enough to save her.

Aaron put his hand on Dylan's shoulder:

- But you saved her. Besides, I was watching you, I would never let her fall and die.

Dylan sighed:

- She was ready to die...It made me regret what I did.

- Come on, stop worrying. No one will die under my watch

Both of them checked the flower motif:

- The motif is In the same spot for the four minarets. In the middle of the ceiling.

- Yeah, let's go to the pool, maybe we can find something there.

They headed towards the pool where Sarra was waiting for them.

- Now what?

- I think someone must dive into the water.

Sarra and Aaron looked at Dylan, who backed off:

- That someone won't be me, for sure. You know that I hate getting wet.

- How can we forget that...Well, I will go...

Sarra stepped forward:

- No Aaron, I will do it. It won't be that hard for me. I can breathe underwater using my magic.

Dylan put his hand in the water while Sarra was about to jump, suddenly he screamed:

- STOP! DON'T JUMP.

- What's wrong?

- I can feel something strange in those waters.

- Something strange, like what?

Dylan kept looking at the water with a confused face

" The other night, Laila was talking while looking at the river. Is it a water monster? Or is it some kind of a creature that we don't know about?

- Dylan, answer me! What is going on?

- Sarra, when you dive underwater, be careful. I and Aaron will interfere if we noticed anything weird.

- Alright.

Sarra jumped and disappeared under the water. Dylan was looking very nervous because he didn't know what were they facing exactly. All that he was sure about was someone watching them.

- Why Sarra didn't show up yet?

- Calm down, Dylan. She is using her magic to breathe underwater. Can't you see the air bubbles?

After a while, Sarra finally showed up:

- Guys, I think you must see this.

- See what?

- The bottom of the pool. it looks strange.

Aaron jumped as well to see it, while Dylan hesitated.

- Come on, you must see it as well. Don't worry, we will protect you.

- You can't protect me from the water.

Dylan finally joined them. He was so displeased that he jumped into the mud.

Sarra created an air bubble around their heads so they can be able to breathe, then they dive in.

Surprisingly, the pool was very deep. When they reached the bottom, they saw big, white marble, squares that contains different sculptures covering the entire pool bottom, except for one empty spot. Dylan looked for that flower among them, but it wasn't there.

" This is another riddle. I feel that this thing is not going to end..."

Suddenly the bubble around his head snapped and he started struggling to breathe. Aaron and Sarra didn't notice him at first because the place was very dark, but Aaron felt that something passed by him. At that moment he looked for Dylan and that's when he found him about to drown.

- DYLAN!

He took him immediately to the surface.

- Dylan are you okay?

- (Cough)....(cough)....that's....that's why....(cough)...I hate water...

Sarra was surprised that her magical bubble snapped.

- How did it happen?

Aaron looked at the water with a worried face:

- Dylan, you are right. something is in there. I felt it, but I couldn't figure out what is it.

- Maybe it is a water monster?

- I would have seen it. Water monsters don't disappear in the water.

Dylan stood up after his breath went back to normal.

- Let's forget about that thing and focus on resolving the riddle. I don't believe that I'm saying this, but we have to go back in there.

- Really? Can you do it again?

- Yes, but this time let's stick together in case something like that happens again.

- Alright, let's go.

The three of them dive again and reached the bottom Dylan asked Sarra to light up the place, while he got a little far away so he could have a better look at all the pieces.

- What is it, Dylan?

- At first look, they seem like random pieces, but we are looking at a puzzle.

- A puzzle? How?

- Look at the edges of the pieces. We must match them to get the whole picture.

- So I must move the pieces?

- Yes, I will show you the right moves all you have to do is follow my instructions.

- Okay, let's do it...
