Scorpio: Hey guys I'm back!!!! I would like to say a huge thank you to Anime lover 7777(hopefully I spelled it correctly) for her kind and helpful review. *mutters* it was a hell of a lot better than someone else's.
Camus: What are you grumbling about?
Scorpio: Nothing Sir!! *snapping salute*
Camus: *glares* I have a good mind to place you in eternal ice.
Scorpio: Well you can't Dohoko would save me.
Dohoko: What? What did I miss?
Scorpio: If Camus froze me in the freezing coffin you would save me right? RIGHT???
Dohoko: Uhhhhh sure?
Scorpio: Close enough
Aldebaran: So who will be present in this chapter?
Scorpio: Uh you Camus, Saga (again) I still need to figure out who is going to play his side kick.
Kanon: IT BETTER NOT BE ME!!!!!
Scorpio: Oi Vei I get a head ache just by listening to him.
Aphrodite: Be thankful you don't live with him.
Scorpio: OH!
Dohoko: what?
Scorpio: I figured out who should be the side kick
Aphrodite: Who?
Scorpio: You
Aphrodite: *looks horrified*
Scorpio: I do not own Saint Seiya or the movie Anastasia. (which is where I got the idea for this story) I apologize for any misspelled words or if anyone is offended by th story for whatever reason. Just a heads up this story is historically inaccurate so if you got a problem with it WELL TOO BAD!!!.
Thank you.
TEN YEARS LATER
Camus walked through the crowded streets of St. Petersburg. He was on his way to met up with master con artist and old friend Aldebaran. Both men had heard about the reward that was offered by Prince Milo for the recovery and safe return of his little sister Anya. The reward was ten million American dollars.
"Aldebaran"
Camus called out as he approached a very tall and rather large man. The tall man had longish black hair and tan features.
"Camus!!! What a pleasant surprise!" he exclaimed.
Aldebaran extended his arms and wrapped Camus in a big bear hug, a grin was playing across his handsome features.
"Is everything set?" asked Camus as he glanced around, making sure no one was listening.
Aldebaran, sensing that it would be better if they were in a private place waved Camus off the street and into and ally way. From there the two men made their way pasted the street merchants, and headed towards an old an run down house.
"Here we can talk in private." Aldebaran said.
He watched as his turquoise blue haired friend began to bounce around the room excitedly.
"Is everything ready?" He asked and Aldebaran nodded his head.
"Yes all we need now is the girl…but how will we find a girl that looks exactly like the princess? Besides how do we even know that she is alive?"
Camus gave Aldebaran a confident look.
"We will teach her how to walk, talk, look and sound just like the princess, and besides when the Prince sees this jewellery box he will think she is the real Anya and by the time he figures out that it is not her, we will be off and far away spending the Ten million dollars!!"
As Camus was talking he pulled an small gold jewellery box out of his coat pocket. It was a beautiful little thing with elaborate designs carved into it and on the top words were scrawled in elegant hand writing 'Together in Paris'. In between the words was the Romanov royal family seal.
"I still don't understand how that little box will make any difference Camus…how did you come by it again?"
"I found it" Camus answered in a cold crisp manor.
"All we need now it the girl"
Aldebaran grinned and nodded his understanding.
"We will host additions to see if we can find the perfect girl"
Both men grinned at each other as the moved out of the old abandon house and toward the street.
"This is going to be the biggest con in history!" Camus exclaimed
"Yes" Aldebaran said
"It will give the Russian public more to talk about."
Both men strutted off into crowd.

AT THE PEOPLES ORPHANAGE ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF .
"Good bye"
Rachel called out as she moved away from the orphanage that had been her home for almost eleven years. The children all piled up at the windows to say their final farewells. They all loved Rachel, she defended them when they got in trouble with Saiori the woman who ran the orphanage, and on a number of occasions she had taken the blame for them and ordered that Saiori release them from their punishment. Many of the children liked her because she could always turn a bad situation into a good one. She also had a beautiful singing voice.
"Good bye" Rachel called out again.
"I got you a job at the fish factory" Snarled Saiori "You take this path until you reach the fork in the road, go left"
"Goodbye!"
"Are you listening to me?!?" Demanded Saiori "I'm listening comrade Saiori"
Said Rachel in a really bored tone.
"You have been a thorn in my side for all these years acting like the queen of Sheba instead of the nameless no account you are!!!!"
Saiori reached out and grabbed Rachel by the scarf and pulled her towards the iron gates that surrounded the orphanage.
"For the last ten years I have fed you, I've clothed you, I've kept a roof over your head…"
While Saiori was saying this Rachel was repeating it all with a mocking look placed on her pretty features. Saiori stopped suddenly and wheeled around to face her
"How is it that you don't have a clue to who you are but you can remember all THAT?!?"
Saiori reached out to smack Rachel over the head.
"But I do have a clue to who I am"
Rachel said as she avoided the strong hand that flew towards her, as she produced a small gold pendant with a jade star on the front.
"Look" she said
"I know I know" It was Saiori's turn to mock Rachel "Together in Paris….so you wish to go to
France to find your family"
Rachel nodded her head eagerly.
"Little miss Rachel, it is time you took your place in life…and in line!"
Saiori pushed Rachel out of the gates and turned around and started walking back towards the orphanage "Together in Paris…bahh!"
Rachel turned around and stuck her tongue out at the old bat. She started walking down the snow covered path grumbling all the way
" Go left she said" Rachel said irritated
"Be grateful…you know what I am grateful, GRATEFUL TO GET AWAY!!!!!" S
he ended in a shout and she turned around sharply and shouted in the direction of the orphanage.
"Go left" Rachel muttered again
"But I already know what's left, I will remain Rachel the orphan forever"
Rachel looked at the path to her left and sighed. All she really wanted was to know that someone loved her and that she actually belonged somewhere. Rachel turned to the right path and said
"But if I go right maybe I can find the person who gave me this necklace. The must have really loved me…Oh I wish I could remember!!!"
Rachel fell to the floor mulling over which path to take. She turned her eyes skywards and shouted
"GIVE ME A SIGN…A HINT…ANYTHING!!!!!"
Rachel fell back onto the soft snow covered ground and sighed.
"I guess I'll just have to wait"
muttered Rachel. Suddenly a little puppy with large brown eyes and black fur popped up out of the snow and began to play with Rachel's scarf.
"Hey!"
Rachel said with a bit of a laugh
"Hey! I don't have time to play right now…I waiting for a sign"
The puppy ignored her as it continually played with her scarf. Rachel tried to retrieve it but the puppy just ran further and further down the right path.
"Oh great!"
Rachel exclaimed
"A dog wants me to go to St. Petersburg."
The suddenly it dawned on her
"Ok"
said Rachel as she moved slowly towards the small black puppy
"I can take a hint"
The puppy surprisingly ran up to her and gave her the scarf back.
"You are going to need a name"
Rachel said as she gazed at the little black puppy in her arms
"…I know I'll name you Luca. What do you think?"
She asked Luca, and he yapped and licked her face, Rachel let out a little giggle, then nervously looked down the path.
What if I don't ever find my family? Will I ever get a good job to be able to provide for me and Luca? Luca leapt down from her arms and began to run ahead.
"Luca come back!!"
It amazed Rachel how obedient the dog was.
"He's defiantly not normal"
Rachel muttered. As she watched the little black puppy make his way back to her.
"Well here we go"
She said and the two of them walked off into the distance together.
