"So, where are we going?" Kiki asked again, this time more demandingly.
"We were heading to the only clue we have in this place—the sound of running water coming from the cracks in the wall. The two of you are welcome to join us if you'd like," I responded.
The hollow walls of the cave must have amplified the sound; that must be how we were able to hear it from so far away. No matter how far you went in this cave, you could always hear it. It didn't matter if you moved toward the sound or away from it; the sound of running water could always be heard.
"Thank you," Luna said, giving me a polite smile and a bow.
Just then, I heard the sound of footsteps and the voice of someone calling my name. I immediately recognized the voice and went toward them. It was Natasha.
A not-so-happy expression came over her face when she saw Luna and Kiki.
"Who are they?" she asked, her earlier shyness all but evaporated.
