Though the dinosaurs were the one that shocked Bella the most, it wasn't the one that amused her most. Rather, other legendary creatures of the zoo were the one made her feel like she was in a dream. She even saw some legendary creatures written on human folklore like Kraken, Griffin, Cthulhu and Hydra. They were so big and lifelike that it shocked her to the core. But none of the legendary creatures were harmful. Well they couldn't harm people since they were inside the glass tunnel. So she didn't know if they are capable of harming people or not. She wasn't much interested in human folklore so she didn't know most of the animals name and how they behaves towards human. But the other animals she saw and knew was enough to shock her. Not only the dinosaurs but the legendary creatures were also made by human. Bella didn't know how the hell could someone create such legendary creatures. Her parents said that the zoo is the oldest zoo of their country. They only had dinosaurs and other different animals when they first opened the zoo. It was more than hundred years ago. The other legendary creatures had been added recently.

Even after seeing all the ancient, legendary and strange creatures, the one and only creature that caught her eyes was the Starleon. The creature was not only unique but also very pretty. It was very big, bigger than dinosaurs. It has a big cat shaped head, leopard body and horse like tail. It's fur from its head to it's neck is bright pink in color. The rest of the body is green with yellow flower print on it. Its tail is baby blue in color. The fur on its stomach is bright yellow. It also has two bee like wings on its back. It's eyes are also very pretty, they are bright red, almost ruby like. All in all Bella liked that pretty creature.

The creature was not only pretty but also known as very smart. Smarter than other creatures, even dolphins. They could understand human and other species language and can also response through body languages. It likes human the most, especially children. It would even let them sit on its back and fly high with them. It's like riding on a elephant on her previous life. But far more exciting than that. Bella also wanted to ride on it but her parents didn't let her. They were worried that she would fall from it's back. Flying on its back is very risky since there's no belt to buckle on it's back. So it is easy to fall from it's back while it is concentrated on flying. Bella also saw that a lot of children playing with it, but there's very less children who rode on it's back. Even those who rode, most of them were teenagers, not children literally. Though Bella is fourteen years old, to her parents she is still a baby. So they strongly opposed her to ride on the Starleon.

It took them whole day to roam around the zoo. Even though they were there for a long time, her parents said there's still a lot that she missed. So they promised her that they would bring her there again once they have time. Bella wasn't disappointed that she couldn't visit the whole zoo. What she saw the whole day was enough to satisfy her, considering that how much she disliked zoo. She won't expect her parents to bring her here again if they doesn't want.

Just like this, the week passed and the day of their departing came. But before that, her parents wanted to do one last thing. That is to thank Quint who has cured their daughter. Thus they asked Berson to bring him to their apartment a day before their departure.

Berson would have bring his friend over even if their parents didn't tell him to. Because Quint has been bugging him for two weeks. He have been talking about Bella's cooking non-stop, as if the one who can cook isn't his (Berson's) sister but his (Quint's). Quint has also been nagging at him for not inviting him (Quint) again and also that how they can eat delicious foods everyday where they forgot an abandoned soul like him (Quint). Well, he is right in a sense. They really had been eating delicious foods over the past few days. Everyday his sister would cook new delicacy for them. Each one of them is delicious than the one before. Now it has become their habit. So when Quint accused him for eating delicious food everyday and not inviting him over, he couldn't refute him. He had to listen to his(Quint's) endless nagging since he can't say neither truth nor lie. After listening his nagging for a few days, Berson had enough. So he brought his friend over as his parents said.
