And again... nothing. He span on his heel, frustrated and worried because he just couldn't find her. And that was when he caught a glimpse of blue. That was a good sign, right? He crouched down at the entrance of the tunnel and peered in to see Sutton hugging a dog. A quick glance at the tunnel told him he wasn't going to be able to get in there with her, so he knelt on the floor and leant inside. "Hey, you okay?" He asked softly, glancing at the flames. At least she had enough sense to keep herself kind of warm.

Sutton had heard Edmund calling her name from a distance, but she didn't respond. If he wanted to find her, he would. It wouldn't be that hard, she supposed, as all he would have had to do was follow her tracks through the snow. Still petting the big dog, she heard Edmund call her name much closer now, but she still didn't respond. A few moments later, he had found her. At first Sutton thought about just ignoring him and continuing to wallow in her own little tunnel of misery...

But then she let go of the dog, who promptly jumped out of the tunnel, and she crawled to the end, climbing out and hugging Edmund as she cried into his chest. Her voice muffled, she said, "I d-didn't mean it..." Looking up with hopeful eyes, she asked, "Is there a... a spell or something that will let me go back and change it? Because I will... I'll take it all back. I won't even go to the stupid carnival thing..." Surely in everything that magic could do, there was a way to fix it...
