Chapter 1: A Night To Remember
It was a cold, snowy, and misty night. Snow covered the ground like fleece on a Lamb. Carriages were coming from every direction to a grand celebration that could warm up the coldest night. It was the 300th anniversary of Romanov rule. People came from far and wide to the glorious ball. But one special family stood out from them all.
It was none other than King Richard and Queen Bella, along with their daughter Princess Naomi. Naomi happened to be the best friend of the Grand Duchess Anastasia. Naomi found Anastasia and called out to her, "Anastasia!" Anastasia curtsied to her father and turned around to see Naomi. She let out a scream of joy and ran towards her. They embraced each other tightly never letting go.
A few minutes later, Anastasia's grandmother came in. Anastasia saw her and took Naomi's hand and led her up the stair case to her beloved Grandmama. The sweet old lady smiled at them and pulled something small out of her bag
Both of them looked at the small objects in her hand. The both looked at her and asked at the same time, "Is it a jewelry box?" The woman nodded in response. She showed them how to fit the keys into their slots and turned them. As they opened a familiar tune began to play. Both girls clapped their hands with excitement and began to sing along. As the song ended they read what was printed on them aloud,"Together In Paris." They hugged the old woman as if they wouldn't let go.
All of the sudden the sudden the music stopped and people stated gasping. The hugging trio turned around and saw a crooked figure stepping towards the Czar. Naomi looked at him and saw a glowing green object and pointed it out to Anastasia. They started up towards its face, but the woman shielded their eyes. She whispered in their ears, "Don't look at him!"
The figure approached the Czar and lifted his hood, revealing his face. The Czar stepped forward saying, "How dare you return to the palace!" "But… I'm your confident." The Czar's expression hardened, "You are a traitor GET OU!" The corpse looking man narrowed his eyes, "You think you can banish the great Rasputin!" he raised the glowing object and said, "By the unholy powers vested in me, I banish YOU with a curse!" Everyone gasped, "Mark my words…You and your family will die within the fortnight." He looked around hearing the murmuring crowd, "I will not rest until I see the end of the Romanov line FOREVER!" he raised his green object and sent a blast right to the chandelier making it cash to the ground. And with that, he was gone, Leaving Anastasia and Naomi shaking in fear.
The adults tried their best to calm the terrified children, but it wasn't that easy. Soon enough, the girls finally calmed down and were sent to their rooms for bed after the celebration was over.
No matter how hard they tried to sleep, the princess' minds raced as they constantly relived the horrors of what they had witnessed only hour before.
One thing crossed their minds before they finally succumbed to sleep," What will become of me and my family now?"
A/N: Thanks for reading and please review. I wanted to remove most of my stories so I would only have to focus on one or two stories at a time. I wanted to see if I could add anything to the chapters to improve it in any way. I will only be working on this story and If I Never Knew You at this time. I will start editing and re-uploading the other story once I recover the first two chapters. I will be working on chapter 6 today as well and I will get it out ASAP. This will become a crossover towards the end. Okay enough of my rambling, see you soon.
