When they got to the forest, they did not see any spirit beast so they decide to rest for a while.

Some minutes later, Alisa heard a sound of an animal coming towards them, she tried waking them up but they were not waking up, then shouted Isbert name who was on top of the mountain, immediately he heard is name he quickly rush down.

"What happened." He asked.

"I heard a sound of an animal slithering and at the same time flying." Alisa explained looking tensed.

"That means that's the legendary Flying Snake." Isbert said.

"And I tried waking them, they were not waking up it seems like they are in a deep sleep." Alisa said looking more tensed.

"The flying snake created an illusion by controlling their minds." Isbert said.

Just then the flying snake Arrived, it is very long and big.

"Quickly run, we have to distract it from here so that it won't continue controlling their minds." Isbert said, And they quickly started running but still the snake was still following them, when they ran very far from were Aslan and the rest were sleeping, they stopped ready to attack, Summoning their weapon.

They fought intensively with the flying snake, but the snake was not giving up, the snake injured Alisa on her leg and she was bleeding, that makes Isbert more angry and he raised his spear up piercing it in the middle of his head and the snake fell down about to die, Isbert quickly torn his clothes using the fabric to tie Alisa's leg and he gave Alisa a dagger and he said

"Stab the snake in his heart do that you can have the spirit ring, looking at this snake, the nature suit you very well."

"Okay ." Alisa answered and stabbed the snake on its heart and the snake died, And she sat down on the ground with her both leg crossed ready to absorb it spirit ring,

"Be careful it a snake that have lived for one thousand years." Isbert said sitting on a wood not far from Alisa.

Alisa nod her head trying to focus.

Some minutes later, Alisa finish absorbing the spirit ring and she she turn to were Isbert was sitting and she saw him looking pale, she quickly ran to him,

"Isbert are you okay, speak to me, open your eyes." Alisa said panicking and very scared.

"Why are looking like that, you should be happy you got a spirit ring, come let's go to that cave near by I have already checked the place, is secure we will spend the night there, tomorrow we will find our way back to the Academy."Isbert said trying to sit properly.

Alisa and Isbert walked to the cave with Alisa supporting him,.

When they sat down, Alisa went to look for sticks to make fire, when she she came back dropping the sticks on the ground she arrange it, and she was going back,

"Where are you going?" Isbert asked.

"To look for stones." Alisa answered.

Isbert used a spell and fire was on the sticks.

"Can you keep it a secret." Isbert request.

"Sure I can keep it a secret." Alisa said smiling Walking to where he was sitting and she slipped because of the sticks on the ground and she fell on Isbert mistakenly hold his shoulder and he groan in pain, Alisa quickly stood up and wanted to shift his clothes to check but she was stopped by Isbert and she said

"Let me see."

"You can't"
