"It's hard to explain," Abi said. "But you have to trust me on this." Quickly grabbing the pendant, and without giving Blake a chance to react, she ran out the front door.
Blake hurried after her, closing the door behind them. “Where are we going?”
"You'll see!"
Blake laughed a little and ran after, catching up in a second and taking her hand in his.
"When I was younger, Adelia used to talk about a golden greenhouse, with flowers of all types. I never believed her, but went along with the story. That is, until she actually showed me it," Abi explained. "I remember the way to it. She has to be there. It makes sense with this being left behind," She continued, showing Blake the pendant.
"Ok then.." He followed her to the greenhouse.
Abi opened the doors. "Adelia!" She called. When no answer ensued, she headed towards the orchids. "Adelia!" Towards the blue orchids. "Adelia!"
"Abigail! Darling!" A voice called back. "I thought you'd never arrive!"
Blake's mouth dropped open. "Wh-how?!"
"Oh, hello dearie. Come closer, Abigail." Abi moved closer.
"Do you know anything about my sisters?"
"I thought you'd never ask."
Blake closed his mouth and swallowed, still in shock.
Adelia stood up. "Follow me. I'll show you something that will answer all your questions." She started walking away. Abi looked at Blake then took his hand and followed the - surprisingly fit - old lady.
Blake followed them to who knows where, enjoying being with Abi and Adelia again.
Adelia led them to a small room in the back of the greenhouse. "I haven't been here before," Abi said.
"That's because I haven't showed you yet."
Blake gazed around curiously at all the flowers and plants.
Adelia picked up what looked like a staff. Abi couldn't make out what it really was.
Blake looked at the thing and frowned a bit “what is it?”
"It's a staff," Adelia answered, as if it was obvious.
"It can't be," Abi said.
"It is. Well, it's more of a key."
"For what?"
"This."
Blake watched whatever was going on in disbelief. How come I knew nothing about this?
Adelia stuck the staff into a small hole and suddenly the room lit up with stars. "Is this…magic?" Abi asked.
"No, non. Don't be silly, child. They're holograms. It's science, not magic."
Blake stared around in wonder. “Science..”
Abi touched one of the holograms, and her finger hit it. She shot a questioning glance at Adelia, who simply winked back.
Blake looked around at the holograms. “What are these for?”
"You ask too many questions, boy."
"I'm just wondering.."
"How will this help find my sisters?" Abi asked. Almost immediately, a clue appeared in gold writing in the air. To find the ones who you seek most, go to the spot where you were all five.
"That is all I can give you," Adelia said.
Blake glanced over at Abi, leaving this to He to figure out.
"That's impossible. There's no way. We were never 5 at the same time. We're not quintuplets."
"Think deeper, Abigail."
Abi did so. "Where we were all five. Of course! The fields!"
Blake still stood there, very confused, looking at Abi.
Abi saw the confusion in Blake's eyes. "When we were younger, my parents used to take me and my sisters to Golden Fields once a year. One thing that we had in common there was that we all felt like we were five years old again. It's got to be what that clue was talking about."
"Well okay then let's go."
