Final Kingdom
Prologue: Mirror Malfunction.
"Virginia, have you seen Kaori?" Wolf asked his wife.
"I don't know, I thought that she was with you." Virginia told him, looking up from her work.
"Well, I don't know where she is, and I haven't seen her." Wolf said, starting to panic. "Do you think she's in the clubhouse? Or do you think she's at a friend's house? Like Jordan's?" He said, starting run towards the playhouse he built her.
"Wolf, she's not out there, I checked already. And I don't think she's at Jordan's. She could be at George's house, but I don't know for sure." Virginia said, looking up from the ironing, about to go do the dishes. "Wolf, calm down, there's nothing to worry about, she's probably playing around the neighborhood, or maybe she went to the park, with Mrs. Roberson. She's probably just being herself."
A couple of hours later, she could tell that Wolf hadn't found her, because he had just come home, and she wasn't with him.
"Have you heard anything? Maybe…you stay here while I go and ask my grandma if she knows anything about her." Virginia said, while going for the mirror. When she got to where she had hidden it, because her daughter didn't know anything about that world, she found the mirror was…gone!"WOLF!" She screamed, getting upset, "WHERE DID YOU PUT THE MIRROR?" she asked, starting another fight, though not a very bad one.
"VIRGINIA!" Wolf said, bursting into the room, "I went to go see if she left a letter in her room, and I found the mirror…on." He said, knowing that she wouldn't like it very much.
"WHAT! WHEN DID SHE FIND IT! Can you tell by anything left?" Virginia asked him, starting towards her daughter's room. "Do you think she went through?"
"I don't know, but she might've, and if she did…" He let the sentence hang, knowing that if he had said it, she wouldn't only be upset, but she would also be mad at him.
"Pack a couple necessities…NOW! We have to leave soon." Virginia told him, more forcingly than she meant to. 'Maybe it will teach him a lesson' She thought, knowing that it would make him better with things around the house, if he was told to.
"Virginia, I know you're worried, I am too, but calm down. We need to think about what Kaori would need, once we find her. So we still have to pack for three." Wolf told her, grabbing her by the shoulders.
"Alright, but when I'm done packing, if you're not ready yet, then I'm starting without you, and you can catch up." Virginia told him, looking furious, which did not happen much, and when it did, it scared even Wolf.
"You go, I'll finish packing. It shouldn't take me too long to finish packing, and when I do, then I'll go through, though I'll probably put the mirror in the closet, then go through, so if anyone comes, then there will be less of a chance of them finding it and going through." Wolf explained, though he noticed that Virginia wasn't paying any attention to him. Her full attention was on the mirror.
"Wolf, I'm going…now." She said, and Wolf guessed that she hadn't heard him.
"I know…just be careful, you know how it is there. It might be better than last time, but it also might be worse." He reminded her, scratching right where his temple and hair met.
After Virginia had left, Wolf finished packing as fast as he could, not wanting to much more than time and worlds, not to mention distance, to come between them.
He soon had enough food for about three weeks for Virginia and Kaori. Then, getting some food for him, and packing it carefully, since he doubted that when they got back, Virginia definitely wouldn't want to mess with bloody packs.
After the food, he was ready to go, so he moved the mirror to the master closet (as Virginia called it, he called it a small room…usually) got his pack, and closed the door behind him.
As he looked at the mirror a moment, he though he saw something different about the fourth kingdom, but in the mirror, it was hard to tell.
He took one last smell of this world, and jumped through the mirror.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26. All the while getting the images of the mirror in its frame getting faster and faster.
He never let it show, but sometimes toward the end, he started feeling sick, the mirror had strange effects on him.
When at last, his trip through the mirrors ended, he found…not the fourth kingdom…but some strange land, with strange smells.
He did not know this place.
