The alien stood completely still in the breaking moonlight. He was tall and slender in a blue and white crystal suit with various lines looking like pockets. Heavy organ music pounded within the broad mountain ahead under long reaching shadows. Brandon started singing a fast-paced, repetitive song about a small, fast boat flying against the rapids. Damian sighed heavily as the two 14 year olds mad their way across the wide field toward the booming mountain. The alien looked almost human with blue skin, his face stretched up, looking more narrow. His bright white crescent moon-shaped eyes shifted toward Brandon and Damian. Breaking moonlight lit up their WhiteStar Patches on their shoulders and reflected brightly off their white circular patches on the fronts of their shirts which displayed their credits for accomplishments in the school of Daylustar, each one signified by a gold star. Each of their patches were nearly completely filled with gold stars shimmering in the passing light. A single massive grand crystal window high in the mountainside revealed green lights flashing to the rhythm of the eerie, whining piano music.
It’s time for another mystery challenge. In this one, you must figure out which key question reveals a great clue for how the kids can reach and destroy the aliens’ crystal crown which is set on top of a massive statue that’s also floating high in mid-air. Here are the questions:
What is the crown and statue made out of? Why did they use a crystal crown for their weapon? Where did they get the minerals to build the statue? Why is the statue floating in mid-air? How does the crystal crown work? How does the dark illness work? How do they get the statue to float in mid-air? Why did the aliens choose to build this statue in Marcaydas? Why did they choose to build a statue of a teenage singer?

Brandon and Damian walked up to the alien standing guard at the door. The alien stared at each of their Daylustar School Patches with sharp, piercing eyes for several long moments. Then he extended his long arm toward the door, gesturing for them to enter. Sour organ chords played strongly through the narrow, massive black stone walls rising high, dimly lit by bright green candle clusters on both sides. Brandon winced at the bizarre chords playing a slow, winding melody at a mixed up rhythm.
“Someone needs lessons,” said Damian, shaking his head.
“Aaaauuuurrrrrgggghhhhhhh.” Damian turned to Brandon with a sharply concerned look.
“What was that?”
“That music is just so…so…aaauuurrrggghhh…hurts my head.” Brandon then closed his eyes, shaking his head as if trying to get the music out. The two kids started jogging up the tunnel curving sharply to the left.
“Where is your brother meeting us?” asked Damian.
“I don’t know,” said Brandon with a shrug.
“What you mean you don’t know?”
“He did not say exactly, he just said, keep going up and to the left.”
“Great,” answered Damian, rolling his eyes. The organ music grew stronger around them. They came to a door on the left with the path turning right, leveling out. The door creaked as Brandon slowly opened it. Dark golden chandeliers hung from the high hidden ceiling. The kids jogged up the steep slope. Brandon began singing the sailboat song.
“MMMmmrrrrggghhh.” Brandon turned to him with raised eyes, taking his song down to a hum. “Not the sailboat song again,” he said sighing heavily.
“I’ll sing it quietly.” Damian nodded rhythmically to the fast driving rhythm of the organ song vibrating the walls on both sides. Brandon sang his bright melody faster and faster as they moved higher up into the mountain. The eerie organ chords grew stronger with a haunting voice singing a sad, tragic melody wandering, searching endless dark halls. They entered another doorway and headed up a wider hall made with shimmering green glass. Various lights exploded out across the walls lighting up the dark flashing hall.
High grand crystal windows revealed neon green lights flashing to the driving rhythm. Just then a dark figure emerged from the shadows on their left.
The older teenager dramatically threw his hood back revealing his long, dirty hair. Damian just shook his head.
“Hey Jake,” said Brandon. Then they both knelt down, high-fived, then jumped back up. “So what do you have to show us?”
“This way,” he answered quietly. The haunting, powerful music grew stronger around them as they entered through a grand crystal green door into a massive cavern dimly lit by elaborate gold flashing candle clusters. Jake led them toward a dark corner where a line of students all with BlackStar Patches began working with various tools.
“What’s going on?” asked Brandon.
“They are mining for more of the gold stone the statue’s made out of,” answered Jake. Several aliens gave directions to the students. Bright neon green lights flashed out revealing bright gold glittering stone rising high up the corner.
“Are they building another statue?” asked Damian.
“No,” answered Jake.
“Maybe they want to build a gold fish bowl, you know, or a gold fish tank for gold fish, or…”
“They’re studying it,” said Jake. “They are working on a new weapon.” The haunting organ song pounded hard through the cavern. Vibrations rolled through the gold walls on all sides at the same time in steady waves. Jake led them toward the corner where the students worked feverishly to break up the gold walls. “When are you planning to make your move on the students from Cashes Dade?”
“The aliens are still working on Cade,” said Damian. “When know where they are staying. When they give us the order, we will bring them in.”
“What do they want them for?” asked Brandon as they walked across the glittering dusty floor.
“The aliens want them working here,” Jake answered. “They seem to think these kids might be the key to developing their final weapon.”
“They think they have some kind of skill in making these weapons?” asked Brandon.
“Not exactly,” said Jake. “I believe the aliens will be using them as a test.”
“What kind of test?” asked Damian.
“To make sure the weapon is effective at destroying the cancer, starting with them…”
