Year 4 Prologue
Time: July 1st 1996 (Spira time)
Location: Anderson Mansion

She has known about it since the end of third year. Yet she could not believe it. In less than a month she would be up at Bevelle palace. Walking as if bounded in chains. Her mother had broken the news to her gently after they had reached Spira, but Aundrea could not believe it.

"It is your duty my little Guardian," had said to her. "As a Shuyin Summoner and as Princess of Zanarakand..."

The words still echoed faintly in her mind as she was fitted. Staring in the mirror, she saw the hopes and dreams of Spiras people in her hands. Bound by fate, tied by destiny she would be the bridge that closed the gap for all three worlds soon.

"Aundrea," Aliana'a voice boomed in bringing Aundrea out of her reverie. Aundrea turned to face her twin sister.

"How do I look?" Aliana asked her, twirling around in a long turquoise strapless dress.

"Wonderful," Aundrea said to her sister, smiling sadly. Sensing something was wrong, Aliana rushed to her sister's side.

"What'a wrong?" Aliana asked her, taking Aundrea'a gloved hands within her own.

"Just exhausted," Aundrea lied casually. But Aliana knew she was lying. Not bothering to question any further, she helped her sister smooth out the kinks in her wedding gown.

Pre Wedding Day (July 30th)

Isabella glided around the garden of the Anderson mansion to make sure all was in place for her daughter's big day. She looked up amused when she saw a tawny brown owl fly towards her. Opening her arms, the own landed on the sleeve of her gown and dropped an old piece of rolled up parchment before flying off. Raising an eyebrow, Isabella opened up the parchment only to read:

"Ali,
 I made it safely to the Wizarding world. I won't say exactly where in case this owl gets intercepted. Parane Tidus and Nanny Yuna are with me and send theirlove. Tell Seymour I am sorry. See you at the Cup!
-Aundrea"

Arthur Anderson saw the tense look in his wife's face as he stared out the window. Knowing this could notbe good, he ran upstairs to find Aliana.

(1994 two years behind in Spirian time)

"Mom, Aundrea's here!" Fred and George yelled bursting through the front door. Mrs. Weasley who was cooking breakfast waved her wand to continue the cooking as she ran to hug Aundrea, who was in a white Wedding gown. She saw that Aundrea's eyes were laden with dripping mascara.
"Aundrea, what on earth?!"Mrs. Weasley said, catching the young girl in her broad arms. Aundrea looked up at Mrs. Weasley and fainted.

"It's been a long trip, Mrs. Weasley," said a woman with short brown hair and hybrid colored eyes: one green, one blue.

"Yuna!" Yelled a deeper voice that Mrs. Weasley did not recognize.

"Hang on Tidus!" Yuna hissed angrily at her husband. She turned back to Mrs. Weasley and extended her hand."Sorry about that," she said calmly as Mrs. Weasley shook her hand. "I am Yuna, Aundrea'a godmother.

"
"Welcome, dear," said Mrs. Weasley. She rounded on the twins "Fred, George help Mr. Tidus with Aundrea's things. She can stay in Ginny's room with Hermione. Ginny can sleep downstairs with me, and your father on the couch. Now hurry up!"

Nodding to their mother the twins ran outside to grab Aundrea's trunk and suitcases. Surprisingly the young guardian only brought her trunk. George looked down at a sleeping Aundrea and lifted her from his mother's arms.

"There's an extra bed up in the attic," George said to his mother. "I'll take Aundrea up there to rest until everything is settled."

Kissing his mother on the cheek George carried the sleeping Guardian up the stairs, leaving a stunned Mrs. Weasley in his wake.

Spira (1996)

"Whatsoever made you think your sister would get away with this?!" Isabella said angrily, slapping Aliana across the face that very moment Aundrea rested peacefully an entire two realms away.

"SHE ALREADY HAS YOU BANSHEE!"Aliana screamed at her mother, getting up from the ground. "How long have you known about this?" Isabella asked her oldest daughter, sitting down on her throne. A bored expression crossd Aliana'a face as she folded her arms and looked away from her mother. Isabella raised her hand and shot a lightening spell at Aliana but the black Mage dodged it, deflecting it back to her, throwing Isabella against the wall unconscious. Knowing she only had a few minutes, Aliana dashed out of the throne room and jumped out of the window onto Sunbeam's back.

"Hold on tight, Lady Aliana," Seymour said to her. Fastening her arms around his waist, Aliana flew with the Guado to the hidden isle of Baaj.
