She shook her head violently. She slid her finger across her throat and shook her head.
A crash came from behind them. Turning around they saw a giant stone turtle charging towards them at an amazing speed. It stopped right in front of them and someone slid off. For a moment she took in the scene. Then she saw Taylor still body. Ignoring them Naomi went to her. She knelt beside her and touched the hand that had previously held the shard. When she stood up she was as pale as a ghost.
She turned to them, "Where is the stone." she asked bluntly.

((Derey you have to be touching the stone. I guess you were. ;) ))
She motioned to the words she had written worriedly. She tried to say something but no sound came from her. She gripped her fist angrily. An image flashed in their minds. It was of a bird diving straight towards the watcher. An unidentifiable figure rode on it's back but everyone knew who it was.

She just stood there her eyes boring into him, silent.

A ghostly image appeared and flashed before his eyes. He realized where the wind had come from. It had been her. It was Taylor. She was a ghost.

Pick it up. . . it was as if the words were being whispered into his ear. It was as if the wind was saying it to him.

The wind started to blow wildly around her hand and it opened. A grey silver shard fell out.

((Yep but Ethan and Rose showed up too.))

After he had read it the wind receded from her other hand.

Then he peered closely at the words. They said, "beware bloodstone. find surv. . ." there she had been stopped.

The wind had blown it away again. It went back to the half drawn words on the wall and swirled some dirt about.

It looked like before she had fallen asleep she had been writing something in the dirt. Looking closer he noticed that something was clutched in her hand.

((No check her hand. There's an interesting reason why she is so still and the wind's acting up. It has to do with the scene where she calls out to Belenos and his mind goes blank. Something important happened then.))

The wind grew frustrated and blew into their faces. It whirled around and flew back to Taylor lifting her hair wildly. Then it went to her buried hand frantically blowing itself.

The girl didn't move. She was as still as death, at the bottom of a pit. A branch snapped and the wind started to whip around Rose angrily. It blew right through her, pushing her towards the still girl.

((can someone please check on Taylor. Something interesting happened.))

((that makes sense. That's kind of a twist, sounds cool.)) :)

((Rose you need to find the stone first.))

The bird nudged Danny worriedly and then turned to Taylor. She still hadn't moved. She was so still it looked like she wasn't even breathing. She was so very pale. . .
