Pele looked at the girls, eyeing them with a look of intimidation. But the girls did not back down. She smiled. ¨Very well then, if you choose, you and your family may live part-time with the princess," Pele said. The families cheered. Pele held up a hand. ¨If.... she completes her quest.¨ The cheering died down. The families looked at each other. When Jamie and Millicent looked at each other, they came to a silent agreement. ¨Then can we go with her.¨ Everyone was taken back. Even the warrior looked surprised. It was Millicent´s mom who spoke first. ¨ No, no way in heck, am I letting my youngest child venture into an unknown land and battle unknown people, ¨ Mrs. Andrews said. Mr. Andrews nodded in agreement. Millicent looked devastated. Jamie looked at her parents. ¨Mom... Dad... You know I can´t let Ashley do this on her own. I have to go with her.¨ Her Mom had tears in her eyes, but she nodded. Her father came forward and gave her a hug. ¨ We know, but if this woman says it´s ok, then I want you to take care of yourself, alongside protecting Ashley.¨ Jaimie nodded. She looked at Millicent. She gave her best friend a hug. ¨ Hey, I have an idea.¨
