NEXT DAY

"Riia, Riia!!!"

Riia's friends found her sleeping on hard ground near the cave exactly the same place like the day before again. 

Riia became awake by the loud, worried sound of her friends. 

"Riia, are you okay? Why are you here again?" her friends became panic, asking. 

Riia tried scanning her memory again... She quickly stood up and tuned around to find something... 

"Hey, what are you looking? You look so weird, Riia." a friend exclaimed.

Riia got lost, standing still, thinking about meeting the black swan prince last night. 

"Was it just a dream...." she whispered to herself. 

"Huh? A dream? What dream? You were sleep walking again? Hey but why the same place? You're scaring me now." a younger friend stated her fear. 

"I started to feel unwell too... Let's hurry leave this forest. I want to go home." another friend added. 

"Okay, let's go back to our camp and prepare to leave." the male friend spoke up. 

Riia heard her friends but she didn't really focus on them. Her eyes started moving to stare at the entrance of that mysterious cave... 

A moment later, she saw a white feather on the ground near her legs. She bent down to pick it up. 

All friends were curious, looking at the weird friend. 

Riia looked at the feather carefully. Suddenly she smiled... 

"It wasn't a dream. We finally met. So this means your curse has been broken? Yes your curse has been broken. Now you've returned to a beautiful bird back. My mission is complete." she thought in her mind while looking excitedly at the feather and sometimes the cave.

Poor Riia thought making the black swan transformed to white swan is how the curse broken and all curse about... 

Riia agreed to go back to tent and prepared to leave with her friends.

< Inside the Cave >

"Why wouldn't I get my human form back? This is weird. High priest said the curse will be broken and I will get my human form back when someone cries for me purely... Riia did cry for me but why???"

Prince couldn't figure this out. He has been thinking about why and what is wrong for the whole night while spreading his wings to make a wall for Riia to sleep last night. No matter how he thinks, he couldn't get any idea. 

"Cries purely for me?..... Is it possible that she didn't cry for me? Did she cry because she got scared? Did the feeling she had last night wasn't strong enough? Wasn't pure enough?...... What is that.... What do I supposed to do next?... Whatever, at least I have a better appearance. All creatures will lose their hatred towards me, hopefully... " 

Prince V continued analyzing while looking at his drawing Riia has drew. He stole it from her. 

"Even the drawing turned to be white. She comes to save me..." he sweetly smiled to the beautiful drawing. 

-----///-----

"Let's go! Let's go!"

"Hey, let's take the last few selfies! 

"Okay okay!!!"

The small group of best friends closed their camp trip by taking a few group selfie at the waterfall. 

Then they headed to leave..... 

Riia walked in the last. Before she moved her legs to walk out from there, she turned back to the direction of the cave where she believes the black swan is living in. 

"Good bye! Hopefully you'll live in happiness from now on." she said the last wish with a smile to the prince then left. 

.....

Riia and her friends have been walking while looking at the signs along the way but after a while they started to realize they're losing their way. 

"Hell no, we're really losing our way. I think we've just passed this area earlier."

"Oh god! Look like we've been losing the way quite far already."

"I don't see any more sign. What should we do?"

"And it's 3pm now... If we can't find way out before sunset, we gotta sleep here for one more night."

"Hmm we don't even know if this area is safe or not. I'm so scared..."

All young boy and girls became panic. They completely lost their way quite far from the right way. Now they have gone too deep and quite far part of the forest. They wandered around, hoping to get any clue but the more they walk the more lose they feel. They decided to stop right there in case they would lose deeper than this.

When the sun disappeared, they made firewood for lighten up their place and also giving a sign asking for help. 

They all started to feel worried and scared more and more. Some of them couldn't stop crying. However a good thing is they still have a little food left. They ate their last food then opened their tents to sleep.

When the night fell deeper, the fear started growing rapidly too. None of them could fall asleep. They kept thinking about danger they could meet such as wild animals as here seems to be out of controlling area by the authority. 

"Riia, I'm so scared. What is that sound?" a friend cried to Riia. 

Riia hugged her to calm her... "I'm scared too but we're gonna be fine. Tomorrow we may get any luck." Riia consoled her friend while she herself is scared to death too. 

They consoled each other then finally they could fall asleep. 

While they were soundly sleeping, a few hunters were passing by. Riia heard footsteps. She quickly woke her friends. They all went out to see. 

"Uncles!!!" they were happy to finally see some people are around. They excitedly shouted for help.

Three hunters heard them. They came as were called. 

"Uncles, we lost our way and couldn't find way out. Can you help us?" the male friend explained to the hunters.

Hunters didn't reply. They turned to look at each other for a while then turned to scarily stare at the poor kids. 

Now the excitement has ran out of their faces. The girls held each other tight in fear. 

"What a lucky day! You guys shouldn't have come here. Here, there is no other people besides hunters. Haha" *evil laugh*

The hunters laughed evilly. 

Now everyone became more frightened. 

"Wh... What do you want?" the male friend asked the evil laughing hunters. 

"You all are gonna be our bait haha... give all valued things to us." a hunter who looks like
