"She hasn't been found yet?"

I ask Luke as he came back from the search, I wanted to come and help but Joshua won't let me in case I'll be hurt

"Where could she have been hidden?" Joshua said as he entered the room with an unexplainable face

"Now I want to praise the kidnapper for successly hidden her" Luke stated as I sigh

Where could she have been... Its been weeks since she's been missing and we don't even have leading clues yet, even the whole kingdom is finding her

But no avail.... The 4 Kingdom had conduct a search for her but none had been successful, did she perhaps been dragged back to earth? Wait.... Why didn't I think of that?!

"What if.... The kidnapper brought her back to earth?!" I exclaimed

As i said those the two then cracks up, maybe because of my absurd guess?

"Why?! We haven't found her since she was gone, isn't it normal to think she's been dragged to earth?" I explained as they continue to laugh at me

"Crystal... There's noone left in this time that has magic, if someone has magic we should've found her by now"Luke told me while holding her laughter

"But I'm serious, if she's in the kingdom how come we haven't found her yet? Don't you think it's weird?" I told them again and this time their laughter died down

"We need to get to her mother... To ask on how to get to the other world, after all she swapped the souls of her daughter and Annie" I said and went out and froze in my spot at the sight

"Crystal what's wrong?"

I heard the two said, I slowly pointed outside while looking at it in horror

"What in the world-"

"What happened here?"

The two of them had mixed expressions... I'm here frozen in my spot don't know what happen in the past 30 minutes when we're in the room

Everything is in chaos... Everything turned dark all the music was gone the kingdom is full of rose thorns and the cloud is red

"who would do such a thing??" I stated as I look for the main root and widen my eyes to see the house of Fioré

"Guys! The Fioré household!" I exclaim and went to the direction as the two followed me

We traveled in the city to see the whole house being destroyed and the people is nowhere to be seen

What the hell had happen...

I thought again as we opened the door in the Fioré household and froze at our sight

"D-Duchess...." I stuttered as I look at the Devil-like Duchess infront of me

"What took you so long... My hostages"

She stated and before we can even react, black out... The last thing I saw before I was out

Is the Duchess' evil aura

Anastasia where are you...

Anastasia where are you...

I opened my eyes at the familiar desperate voice, then the door was slammed open to see Amelia with a fear look

"Anastasia.... Veronica made her move in the kingdom" she told me as I froze

"We need to act fast... Now" She said as I then quickly grab my stuffs and place it in my bag

"Lady Amelia, let's go!" I said as she nod, I called my butterflies to give us a lift to our kingdom

But when we got there I almost past because to what had happen "The Fioré's household... Anastasia your home" Lady Amelia said as we look at my home

Mom, Dad... Everyone, I hope your ok

I thought as I requested my butterfly to fly us to my home in the entrance

"Thank You" I said as they fly away to safety "Let's go inside" Lady Amelia said but I stop her

"I don't have magic...."I told her as she smiled at me

"Yes you have, find it deep in your heart" she said as she held my hand and we opened the door

I nearly past out because to what had happen...

I look around and found something that made my heart dark....

Crystal....

Luke....

Joshua...

I thought as I saw them being imprison by Rose thorns.... Even at the sight of it made me go mad

"Anastasia, we can't have you go berserk" Lady Amelia said as I nod

"Veronica!!! Show yourself!!!" I yelled

I'll defeat her and place her in the Royal cell, no... In the prisoners cell

Where she'll live for the rest of her life for doing countless sins... She needs to pay the price for framing and using people

She made the wrong enemy...

I'll fight her even it means I'll activate my curse...

Even I'll kill myself, just to have her defeated

"So my bait is working!! Welcome You two..."
