When Rhett was already out of earshot.
"Let's try it again!" Amara urged Sabrina.
Sabrina released a deep sigh and refused, "Later... I still want to rest because my headache hasn't gone yet," she said and shut her eyes to sleep.
"Fine, go to sleep then and after you wake up, let's try again!" Amara breathed deeply. She can't force the girl, she's also feeling upset with the whole thing just like her.
Sabrina nodded her head with her eyes closed.
Amara sighed. She lay in bed beside Sabrina and stared at the medallion, trying to understand its mystery. How is she going to return to her old self if the medallion refused to turn her back?
Who can help her?
Then she remembered their powerful Priestess.
If the medallion can't help her - the Priestess can!
Suddenly, her situation is not as hopeless as before!
She feels better now. She will urge Sabrina to keep trying, but if the medallion won't grant the girl's wish then the Priestess is her only last hope. If she is to die, she wants to die in her old self, not in a useless rabbit's body!
Sabrina was already sleeping beside her, her soft snoring echoed in her ears. She might as well rest her weary mind to gain strength later. She closed her eyes to sleep.
Meanwhile, outside the cave.
Rhett had already checked the wooded area near the cave - still no sight of Amara. Where that woman had gone to? She just left like that without saying goodbye to them? How ungrateful of her! Sabrina is crying because of her.
He felt thirsty, he left the area and went back to the cave.
Inside the chamber.
He found Sabrina and the rabbit sleeping beside each other on the bed.
Feeling sweaty all over his body, he picked up some clothes from the cabinet and left the chamber, going to the stream to take a bath.
He stayed in the stream for fifteen minutes, loving the refreshing water washing the sweat on his body. After he finished bathing in the stream, he donned his clothes and returned to an empty chamber, but no one is there. Did Sabrina already awaken?
He left the chamber and proceed to the entrance of the cave. He found his girlfriend and her rabbit pet staring outside while sitting on the wooden chair. He noticed the gloomy expression on Sabrina's face. He went to her side and planted a kiss on her head. "My love, why are you looking so sad?" he asked worriedly.
Sabrina looked at him. "Nothing... I just missed Grandma Azere. I'm worried about her, she hasn't return yet. What could be the problem?"
Rhett sat beside her on the chair and draped his arms around her. "Don't worry too much about her. Grandma possess special abilities. No matter the danger she will encounter in her journey to the Holybel Summit she can protect herself because she got power. Did your remember in the past how she effortlessly killed those gray wolfs who are trying to attack her?"
Sabrina nodded her head. "Yeah, I remember..." she replied.
"Good. So, don't worry about her, she's more than capable of protecting herself," Rhett said reassuringly.
Sabrina nodded her head and smiled.
"Ah, I almost forgotten it, I saw a ripe bananas in the woods earlier. I will return there to harvest it," he said and stood up.
"Okay," Sabrina said.
Rhett picked up the machete in the corner and stepped outside the cave.
Sabrina watched her boyfriend walking in the direction of the woods.
"Let's go back to my chamber and let's try again!" Amara said.
Sabrina looked at the pink rabbit beside her and picked her up. "Okay, let's try again!" she agreed.
She left the entrance, went to Amara's chamber, and locked the door inside. She put the rabbit on the bed and grasped the medallion with both hands. She took a deep breath. "Medallion, hear my command! Transform this rabbit into her old self. Bring Amara back to me!" she ordered.
One minute...
Five minutes...
Ten minutes passed... still nothing happen!
Sabrina was shaking her head dejectedly.
"Please, try again! You can't give up!" Amara urged her.
"Okay..." Sabrina took a deep breath. Again, she grasped the medallion in both hands and spoke, "Medallion, hear my command, transformed this rabbit into its original form, give me back Amara!" she ordered.
Minutes went by... still nothing happens.
"This is getting frustrating and annoying!" Sabrina blurted indignantly.
"Indeed!" Amara agreed.
The women fell silent for a moment trying to control their temper.
Sabrina lowered herself on the bed and looked at the rabbit. "I'm sorry that I turned you into a rabbit, it's all my fault. Don't worry, I will take care of you for as long as I live," she assured her.
Amara was silent. No! She can't accept her rabbit transformation! There's got to be another way on how to use the medallion properly and effectively. Why is it that it can only be used one time? Why it can't be used repeatedly? She was perplexed by the complicity of the medallion. "Such a useless medallion!" she blurted angrily.
"Useless indeed!" Sabrina seconded.
Although the women both agreed taht the medallion is useless but they were also able to witness with their own eyes how it transformed Amara into a cute pink fluffy rabbit.
Questions were piling up in the women's minds as minutes went by.
"How to unlock the full potential of the medallion if I don't know how to use it?" Sabrina asked out of the blue. "If I am the real owner of this medallion, why it won't obey my order?" she asked in a confused tone.
Amara looked at Sabrina, she remembered that the snake told her that Sabrina will figure it out on her own. But looking at Sabrina's confused face, it might take a century before Sabrina will have the capability to unlock the full potential of the medallion. She sighed deeply.
"Maybe the medallion will only grant your wish once a week? Once a month? Or once a year?" she said.
Sabrina's eyes twinkled. "You could be right! Then let's try next week then!" she said.
Amara rolled her eyes. "No! Not next week! Let' try again tomorrow, let's try everyday. Maybe the medallion will finally obey your order once it get feed up with your constant command."
"Okay, fine," Sabrina said.
The women looked at the view outside, both their minds were preoccupied.
After a while...
Sabrina stared at the medallion hanging on her neck. How her life had changed from fine to worst. Not only her face was hideous looking, she accidentally turned Amara into a rabbit! Maybe she's jinx? Why does she always run into bad luck?
She stared at the coconut tree and remembered how fearlessly Edmund climbed it to show off to Amara. She looked at the sad-looking rabbit beside her. "I have a good news for you!" she said, wanting to cheer her up.
The rabbit looked at her. "What good news-?"
Sabrina smiled. "Did you remember Edmund? Rhett's older brother?"
The rabbit nods her head. "Yeah, I remember him! Why?"
"Edmund made a confession to Rhett before he leave for home. He revealed that he is attracted to you. He claimed that you are his Luna and instructed Rhett to take care of you while he's away and he will return to see you again soon. Isn't that romantic?" Sabrina said.
"Awww... I'm happy to hear that, but sad to say, once Edmund see me in my rabbit form, he will no longer be attracted to me. His affection towards me is useless with my current form!" Amara said bitterly.
Sabrina sighed. She was hoping that after informing Amara about Edmund's attraction towards her, she will feel happy. However, it draws an opposite reaction from her. Her effort to cheer her up went in vain. She released a deep sigh. She's at a loss on how to uplift Amara's spirit.
Amara was feeling a bit happy that Edmund also likes her. She even feels flattered that he considers her as his Luna. Unfortunately, with her recent transformation and her impending doom, she and Edmund will never have a happy ending. Their love story is doomed to fail from the very start. He came into her life when she is finally ready to leave this world behind for the greater good. A faint smile left her lips.
Thick silence enveloped the two women.
A few minutes later.
An idea popped in Amara's head. "Sabrina, why don't you try to make another wish to the medallion?" she suggested.
"What wish?" Sabrina asked.
"Order the medallion to undo the curse on your face, command it to transform yourself into your old image!" Amara suggested.
Sabrina's eyes twinkled. "Nice! Why I haven't think about that!?" she said, scratching her head in amazement. Then her smile faded quickly. "I don't think the medallion will obey me this time," she replied. Based on the medallion's refusal to transform Amara into her old self, she doubted if it will obey her command this time.
"Just try it! There's no harm in trying! Maybe it will obey you this time because you are wishing for yourself. Who knows, once it will grant your wish, it will also transform me in to my old self. You can't quit and say no, you have to keep trying in unlocking the full potential of the medallion! Try it for yourself, hurry up while your boyfriend is not yet back!" Amara urged her.
"Okay, I'll try it now!" Sabrina said excitedly. Maybe, the medallion will obey her command this time. She grasped the medallion with her hands and was about to deliver her command when out of the corner of her eyes, she saw her boyfriend approaching the cave, carrying bananas on his shoulder. "Oh, no! Rhett is coming!" she said and stood up.
Amara groaned in disappointment. Why did Rhett has to appear all of a sudden when they're about to try using the medallion again!? So, annoying!
Rhett entered the cave and smiled at his ladylove. "We have plenty of ripe bananas that can last for three days! Let's boil some right now!" he said enthusiastically.
"Okay," Sabina said and left with Rhett, leaving Amara alone at the entrance of the cave.
