"You knew it was the Siren's way to track the Captain so she would be able to find him and keep in trapped," Bohoj continued. Rose had to think about it for a minute before remembering all of the story, but soon it came to her. "I remember. He tricked the Siren into letting him go back to his ship to say goodbye and instead he took off. She cursed the ship's anchor. It was her intention that whenever he weighed anchor at any port, his ship would never be able to sail away and she would find him. As I also recall that if you hadn't seen the anchor glowing when she cast the curse, he would be a Siren's husband by now," she answered. "What about it?" "I have the anchor here with me," Bohoj said. "Could we use it for that portal anchor you mentioned while talking to that Granny person?"

As Rose walked around a large white boulder in this strange land of crystal and whiteness, she almost stumbled across something she never expected. A drunken sailor sleeping on the ground. Or at least she thought he must be drunk when she saw the empty bottle of rum laying on his chest and for a pillow his head was resting on a treasure chest. "How typical," she first thought until she realized that she recognized this sailor. "Bohoj! What are you doing here?" she yelled, waking the sleeper.
That is when Rosie and Roslie found them. At first Rose's helping hands sisters kept their distance from Bohoj as they were not sure of his intentions, but quickly Rose informed them that he was an old friend. "We will probably need his help to get out of this strange place we're stuck in," Rose told her 'sisters'. It was then that Rosie told Rose about her 'Heart Song attack' and her dream about using the teli-pone to talk to Granny Flare. It was when she mentioned the part about the Moon Dragon that made both Bohoj and Rose flinch. Hadn't they had enough with Wish Dragons granting wishes and getting them into this predicament to seek out another Dragon? Finally, after more discussion, Rose decided that they did not have many choices. Since the badd-erly on the teli-pone said it was charged, she pressed the buttons that had connected previously to Granny Flare's PEE-C. "Hello. Is this Rose?" asked the voice coming out of the teli-pone. "Hi Granny, this is Rose. Can you help us get back home?" Not wanting to run the badd-erly back down, Granny Flare quickly told Rose about a plan that the Moon Dragon, Dree, was working on. "We are hoping to see if we can bring you, Rose, and all of the others trapped in the World of Whispers home again," Granny Flare said. "We are still working out some of the problems in the plan, but are hoping to have it all in place very soon. Dree is now practicing with my Portal Key Stone but I fear that without some way to anchor the portal he won't be able to keep it open very long for everyone to make it home," Granny finished. It was then that the teli-pone started beeping again telling them that the badderly was almost out. "I've got to go and recharge the badderly," Rose told Granny. "I will call you back when it is ready again." "That would be great," Granny answered. "In the meantime, if you can think of a way to keep a portal open, let us know when we talk again." Before Rose could push the off button the teli-pone went dead and all of the lights went out. "Oh no!" cried Bohoj. "Now we can't get help from them."
"So its like a cold virus or worse - a case of the Spotted Meesils?" Roslie asked in trying to understand what her sister was feeling. "Oh, we all can get it Roslie. But sometimes the Heart Song can come in like a quiet flutter with just a tickle to it. Or sometimes it is so large, just like the attack I just had, that your body shakes with energy and the ideas are just jumping around in my head right now," Rosie went on trying to explain.
"The Heart Song can change people and even worlds. She said I need to understand it as we were going to need the energy of the Heart Song to help change this World of Whispers. That is also why I know it is so powerful that the Heart Song can even cross dimensions!" said Rosie as she grasped her sister's hands.
"A teli-pone needs electricity to recharge its 'badderly'" she told Rose. Rose did not know what a 'badderly' was, but as a magical elemental she understood electricity. All living things had some form of electricity as it was the power that made things work. Fingers moved, thoughts occurred, even magic used electricity in some manner, but how to put it into a 'badderly' could be a problem but Rose was not the type of fae to give up easily.
"This is Rose. I am stuck in some white world and am trying to find my way home. Who is this?" she asked the voice.
Now Granny Flare is a very practical house Brownie and normally would have thought that this was a practical joke, but when Rose mentioned the strange white world and making a wish, she knew what had happened since she had heard the story from Lil' Boots. It took a while, but by the time she was able to explain to Rose what she knew, the 'LOW POWER - RECHARGE' was flashing on the teli-pone again. "So typical, and I still don't know how to get out of here," she thought. "Granny, we need to recharge the teli-pone," Rose said. "Find out if you can bring us back and I will dial your number again after the 'badderly' is full and we have rested."
"So typical!" Rose replied. "Only in a magical world can you one minute be washing clothes and in the next second be whooshed away and looking at copies of me!" Rose, ever practical, decided immediately that since she wouldn't get an answer from her 'helping hands', she would try to figure out where she was. Everywhere she looked, all she could see were shades of white. "Glistening white and rocks, so typical!" she mumbled to herself as she turned to look in all directions. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that her other two selves did the same thing. As she was turning, Rose did notice something different a little ways away. ""There!" Rose pointed with a finger. "Do you see it?" Rose asked as she started off in its direction with the other two following her. "It was something with color." Soon she was bending down and picking up the strange looking object. It was pink and had buttons on it. "I wonder what this is?" she said aloud. It surprised her when Roslie answered.
"This is strange," Rose thought. "I must be under a spell or something and all of this is a dream." Dream or not, she knew she needed to keep moving forward if any of them where going to find their way home. "Do either of you, Rosie or Roslie, know how to use this 'teli-pone'?" Rose asked. Rosie with a quiver of anxiety to her voice answered first this time. "You must push the buttons in just the right order. When you get it correct, someone else will be able to hear you if you talk to it and you will be able to hear them. But if you don't get the right numbers, all you will hear is a beep-beep-beep sound before this spooky voice says 'You have reached a number no longer available. Try again!' and then it sucks you in to hitting all the numbers again." As Rosie finished, Roslie nodded her head in agreement.
Rose would just have to be brave enough to give it a try. She took a deep breath and letting it out slowly to center herself, she started to reach out a finger to push the first button when she saw the green light flashing on this pink gadget. 'LOW POWER - RECHARGE' was flashing on it. "So typical!" Rose grumbled.
It was that beautiful calm morning as the wash was going and Rose was thinking that she needed to get started on the making of the Rainbow Drops Jam when she made that fateful mistake. Had she realized that a Wish Dragon was close by, she would have been on guard. But she had been distracted with all the things she needed and wanted to do before the cold weather that her joints were telling her was coming in soon. "Wouldn't it be nice to have some helping hands to help me get through my chores," whispered Rose to herself. That is all she had to do before POOF! She was caught up in a whirl of glittery fog and landed in the middle of this white world. But what really threw Rose off her game, was that she was looking at two other versions of herself looking back at her. "Who are you?" the stunned Rose asked of the two other ladies. The one to her right quickly responded saying "I am Roslie" while the other one in front of Rose replied "I am Rosie". Then they both together in unison replied, "We are your helping hands".
