Y/N's Pov 
Professor Leveratt leaves. I turn to look at Jin. 
"Make sure you change your fire boots before we walk on the ice." I advise, changing my shoes as well. Jin nods. 
After scaling the wall, we stumble upon a waterfall. I use the ice sword to create a path up the waterfall, revealing another truffle room. 
"I'll get it." I create a little stair case and pull up another tornado truffle. "Jin! Catch!" I toss him the truffle. J: "Another tornado! Sweet!" Y/N: "Let's keep going." 
Scaling up another tall waterfall, we found another teleporter and a bow. I point to the hole in the ceiling and say, "This is the way to the frog talisman." "I'll go get it. You stay here, ok?" Jin asks, putting a hand on my shoulder. I nod, a little disappointed that I couldn't tag along. 
Upon seeing my reaction, Jin kissed my forehead, promised that he'll be back as soon as possible, then left. 
I lightly blushed and put my left hand to my right shoulder, allowing Venom to slither onto it. I put my other hand under to support Venom and brought him in front of me. Venom hisses at me, almost like he's teasing me. I blushed even more, embarrassed from the teasing. 
Y/N: "Y-you're not helping!" V: Hiss. "I know you like him. ~" Y/N: "I know that you know that I like him." V: Hiss. "Well, what's so great about him anyway?" Y/N: "Well, he's cute, fearless, charming, kind, and sigh. I'm rambling, aren't I?" V: Hiss. "How are you so deeply in love with him? You've only known him for a couple of days." Y/N: "Venom, before I got here, I used to watch the gameplays and boss fights of this game. That's how I know almost everything about this game. Now seeing Jin in person has made me rethink about how I thought of him before." 
I heard footsteps from above as I put Venom back on my right shoulder. "BOO!" 
Frightened, I turned around quickly and smacked whoever was behind me. 
"Ow! Y/N, what the hell?!" "Jin! You scared the shit out of me!" I scold, helping the poor boy up. "Here." Jin hands me a frog talisman. "I've been waiting to do this ever since I got into the game." I say, immediately changing into my frog form. "Do what?" 
I grab the green jump block with my tongue and hold it in my mouth. I walk over to the edge of the wall and put the block down. "At least we can hold the tiki's bombs they throw at us and use it against them." I explain with a mischievous glint in my eyes. J: "I'm going to keep my eye on you." 
*20 minutes and another missing Ollie music sheet later* 
We looked up in awe at the dragon sculpted temple before us. After staring for a bit, which felt like hours, Jin and I finally open the door and walked inside. Once inside, we found an overjoyed sphinx, who looked like a Chinese dragon. 
Sp: "Visitors! Hi there, I am the Sphinx!" J: "Hi. . . Sphinx. I'm Jin and this is Y/N." Sp: "Do you wish to enter this temple?" We nod. 
Sp: "Well, I must ask you 3 questions, then I can let you in. You know sphinx business. . . Only if you answer all 3 of them right, I'll open the door for you." J: "Sounds easy!" Y/N: "Not as easy as it sounds. He won't let us in if we get one wrong." Sp: "I'll kick you out if you get one wrong. It was my cousin's idea to make it more fun." J: "How rude." 
Sp: "First question. Who was the guardian of Crystal Caves?" Y/N: "Ancient Frog!" Sp: "Great! Next question! How many tentacles did the Giant squid have?" J: "5!" Sp: "Alright, last question. What do I hate most in the world?" J:"Roy-!"
