It was a dark and stormy night, Virginia and Wolf finally got their
daughter to sleep when they got the summons. They were passing the hall
mirror when a face appeared, "The Nine Kingdoms are in trouble, again. We
need your help. Please come, but I warn you, this task is most dangerous."
They new of course that the danger was great every time they returned to the Nine Kingdoms, but Virginia had very bad feeling about this time. "What should we do about Alex?"
"We can't take her, she's still a cub and would be more troublesome them helpful. No my dreamy, creamy, wife, we need to leave her."
"But what if we don't come back? She will think we abandoned her! That we don't love her! I can't put her through that, I won't!" Virginia was getting more and more hysterical remembering her own mother who didn't love her and abandoned her. She would never, ever do that to her own child.
"Leave you ring. You love it and she knows it. She'll know we love her."
Virginia slipped off her engagement ring. It was a singing pearl that only sang in the Nine Kingdoms. There were times when she missed its singing voice, but then it could also get annoying. She knew it was good it didn't sing in New York. New Yorker's just wouldn't understand. Hanging the ring next to her sleeping child, Virginia prayed she would wear it again, not for her sake, but for Alex. Virginia and Wolf slipped out of the house heading for Central Park, the gate that would lead them to King Wendell, and the dangers that lied ahead.
