Chapter 18 The twins were finally recovered enough to send back out after the stone. The old man had given them more tools to work with this time, now that she had a protector with her. They only needed to set the trap, not confront them directly and they should be able to get the stone. The special powders he had made up would at least knock them out, if not do more damage. As long as they could find out the next place the couple was going to and the old man knew that and had given them the coordinates. They would bring back the stone and he would complete his ultimate work. The spell was finally decoded and he had all the required ingredients and components except for the stone. And soon that would be in his possession as well. He sat back down at the table to work on several other spells he had going on at this time, including finding out who it was that was giving so much assistance to the girl, the messengers he had sent out were still away, trying to collect whatever information they could find. The two men left the cottage to go to the cemetery and find the room. They knew that this was one of the last chances they had left. They arrived at the cemetery only a few minutes ahead of the girl so they well aware of the need to hurry. They went into the crypt and slid the platform over to climb down to the cavern below. Victor slid the platform back into place above them and they went down to the bridge. Vincent took the powder into the other room and set the trap. He pulled out the stone in the board and tossed it to the floor. He poured the powder into each of the holes, then stuffed rocks in. When she pulled a stone out, the powder would fly into her face. Meanwhile, Vincent went to work on the bridge. He knocked several of the base rocks out of place, to weaken the bridge.
