Noah: it was again an illusion.!

Alice turns around as she walks away and shows her tounge out to tease Aren. Jay helps Aren to stand up.

Aren: that punk!

Jay: I've never seen you guys fighting!

Aren: yeah ! Many things are there that are never seen!

Jay raises an eyebrow, confused. Then walks along with them.

Noah: guys is there any clue to find this symbol?!

Alice:I don't know. It's even more tough than I thought.

Aren: hey! I can't hear them!

They notice that the communication with rest of the players ...are gone.

Aren: did you find something?

Alice: it should be here!( Searching)

Noah: how are you so sure?

Alice: I remember I had a gift and the box had mainly this kind of symbol.

She throws things around. But suddenly she catches her eyes on a book shelf.

Jay: now you are remembering it! And because of you we have been suffered a lot! Couldn't you remember it earlier.!

Alice: can you remember things which have been done ten years ago!
