Sarah started jumping around took hold of Lynn's hand. "Come on dance."

"But there's know music." Lynn whispered and faded out momentarily so Sarah would release her.

"Does it matter. I don't think so." Taya grabbed Sarah's hand. Sarah through a burst of wind in every direction and watched as their hair was whipped around.

Taya laughed as she danced, swaying with Sarah with giddy laughter. She glanced out over the clouds and noticed a dark shape amongst all the white.

"Hey, look!" She let go of Sarah's hand and pointed. "What's that?"

"It looks like a person." Lynn said, squinting at the figure.

"Are you sure." Sarah leaned over the railing in an attempt to get a better view.

"It is a person!" Taya said as the figure got closer. Taya could see the features, strawberry-blonde hair that waved in the light wind. The girl seemd awed by her surroundings.

Sarah watched the figure grow closer still. Her face darted around in confusion and ah. Lynn faded again and didn't reappear until she had moved several yards away, distancing herself from the others and the approaching girl.

"Who are you?" asked Sarah boldly, without preamble.

"I would ask you the same thing," replied the girl, tossing her hair.

"Sarah."

"Paytah."

"How nice. Girls, introduce yourselves."

"Taya!" Taya waved happily.

"Lynn, get over here." Sarah beckoned imperiously to where Lynn had faded out.

Paytah glanced at Taya. "There's nobody there," she pointed out.

"Except for a shy little ghost," remarked Sarah, striding over to the door and waving her hand it midair for several seconds.

Unbodily laughter came out of the air.

"I didn't know ghosts were ticklish," commented Paytah.

Lynn came back into focus, dancing away from Sarah, out of breath from giggling.

"AHA!" pronounced Sarah. "Paytah, may we introduce the late Lynn, shy girl extraordinaire and part-ghost...high-school student?" Lynn nodded.

"Nice to meet you," she murmured, before fading out again.

Paytah just smiled, "this is much better than professor borings class" she mumbled ever so quietly to herself.

She nodded to the girls and shook her head, "So what is this apparently guyless place of dreaming I seem to have found myself in?"

"Not entirerly sure actually. Pegusus Tail but thats about it." Sarah looked at Paytah and then over at Lynn and Taya. "How much have you two looked around?"

"I saw a guy in a dining room," whispered Lynn.

The rest of the girls perked up.

"OOh, was he good looking!" they crowded around Lynn, who walked through Taya to get out of the center.

"You're cold," commented Taya, shivering slightly.

Lynn shrugged. "He had black hair, and that's all I saw."

"You ran before he saw you, right?" asked Sarah knowingly. Lynn nodded.

"Let's go find him!" suggested Paytah, doing a sort of on-the-spot jig. "There might also be a kitchen..."

"We do need to be introduced." Taya smiled. "Come on, Lynn."

"I'd rather not." Lynn murmured.

"You don't have to say anything or do anything. Besides, you're as thin as a rail and we need to eat."

The girls entered the castle and headed toward the dining room.

They hurried off eagerly except for Sarah who lingered at the thought. She was usually terribly bo shy and even now with all the confidence that single day had brought her, she didn't really want to be intruduced.

"Lynn, are you sure this is the right way to the dining room?" Taya asked getting antsy.

"Yeah." Lynn whispered but it was obvious that she wasn't so sure.

Taya didn't feel like they were going the right way. The castle was giving way to darker, colder corridors and less rooms.

"I don't think we're going the right way." She might as well state the obvious.

"Lynn, look behind that wall, will you?" asked Payah, peering around, one hand held aloft with a small ball of fire providing a gentle glow.

OOC: OMG, I'm so sorry, I totally forgot that I was even in this storybook!
