Act 7: Fire Petal Zoe spotted Irene and was angry. She set a messenger to Mark's home informing
him of the news. Irene got dressed in the outfit she had gotten made especially for her.
Afterwards she went seeking Jonathon. She wanted to borrow a bow and a set of arrows.
Jonathon shook his head no, but he told her he would give her a staff. She laughed at the
fact that how could she carry it while riding a horse. Jonathon agreed to give her what she
wanted, but only after she told him what she needed them for. She informed them she
was on a mission to find the Dragon Cave.
Jonathon tried to tell Irene not to go alone, but she wouldn't listen. He gave her a
bow and 20 arrows. He took her to the stables. He showed her one of the most beautiful
horses she had ever seen. He was completely white like snow. His tail was brushed so
well he had no tangles. He was beautiful inside and out. His name fit him perfectly. He
was named Fantasia. He was to be given to the bride of the Prince.
"Then I have no right to ride him," Irene told him.
"You have all the rights to ride him. The Prince has fallen deeply in love with
you."
"I don't see it and I can't believe it. He would never dare touch another man's
girl; especially the most dangerous man's girl in this kingdom."
"Didn't you say he had no right to own you when he doesn't have your heart?"
Jonathon asked.
"You listen to me too closely."
"Why won't you tell the Prince who the phantom is?"
"If I only could remember who he was."
She put her hand on her head and she felt very dizzy.

Flashback-
"I will not kill your grandfather if you become mine. You seem perfect to be my
bride. I love everything about you."
"You don't know me."
"You're so wrong about that. I have been watching your every move. So what is
your answer?"
"Let me die Irene. It's my time," her grandfather screamed.
"No, you have taken care of me since my mother died. You're not really my
grandfather, but I love you still. I owe you my life. You promise not to kill him Mark?"
"I give you my word."

"Where did that memory come from?" Asked Irene out loud.
"Did you remember something?" Asked Jonathon.
"If I tell the Prince who The Phantom my grandfather will be killed. I must go
and find what I am looking for."
"Please be careful."
She started riding away from the Castle.
"I can't keep my word. I must tell the Prince where you are going for your own
protection."

Is there more to this mission that I know of? Am I suppose to help this person
who I fill is very close to me? She thought to herself. She is two different people.

Princess Hope yelled at Mark about how useless his men were. She informed him
that she went after something called a fire petal.
Anthony went looking for Irene, but she was no where to be seen. He went out to
the stables and found Jonathon. He asked him if he had seen Irene. Before he could tell
him any thing Princess Hope came out and told Anthony she had seen Irene in the
Gardens. As Anthony was about to leave, Zoe grabbed his arm.
"She will never love you like I will. She belongs to some one else."
"She doesn't belong to any one. This man doesn't have her heart. I will find out
who he is and kill him."
"You will never find him. He is too smart for you. He is one step ahead of you."
"You act like you know who the Phantom is."
"What if I do? He wants Irene and he can have her. You can't stop him."
Jonathon couldn't bare it anymore to keep Irene's secret. He told him that she left
for the caves. They got their horses and they went off in search of her.
Mark was not far behind Irene. Mark knew he needed to find her before the Prince
does. Irene stopped for awhile to rest. Jonathon and Anthony followed her trail and they
realized some one else was following her. They knew only one person could be following
her. Something hit Jonathon. It was weird that Mark wanted Anthony to hand Irene over
to him. Jonathon shared his concerns with Anthony and he agreed, but Mark could
possibly be working for the Phantom.
Irene fell asleep, but when she heard a noise she suddenly awoke. Then she felt
some ones hand on her mouth and she tried to scream. It was Anthony. Irene noticed
Jonathon and realized he told Anthony what she was up to.
"The Phantom must be looking for you." Anthony said.
"You two keep moving. I am going back to get some help," Jonathon told them.
Irene and Anthony started riding off towards the cave.
"Why would you be on my side when you know the most victorious villain is
after me?" Asked Irene.
"I seem to have fallen in love with you."
She didn't know what to say to him. She is not the one to tell him whom he can
love. That Princess will be so mad at her just the thought of her made Irene feel sick.
"Let's keep moving. We will talk about this later," Said Irene.
They came to the entrance of the cave and noticed a light shine from it. They
slowly walked inside and entered deep into the cave until they came to a room filled with
light. As they entered they heard loud breathing.

"Watch it," Anthony told Irene.
Fire came out of the breath of the Dragon. The dragon had heard noise. With one
eye open the dragon stared at them.
"Nice to see you again Prince," Dragon said.
"Like wise Doom."
"You know him?"
"The Prince and I have seen each other once before when he was only a child. He
was very curious of the cave. His mother told him not to enter, but did he listen? No! I
told him never to show any one where the cave was. NOW, WHO ARE YOU?!!" He said
with steam coming out of his noise."
"My name is Irene."
"WHAT IS IT YOU WANT?!"
"I have come for the fire petal."
"It is forbidden for ANYONE TO HAVE IT!"
"I know that, but…"
"BUT WHAT?"
"Doom please lower you voice," said Anthony.
"I cannot Prince. No one is allowed in the cave with out reason."
"I HAVE A GOOD REASON. I want to know who I am. I don't come from this
world. I come from another world seeking this fire petal. I have the water petal. I need
all five petals to find out who I really am. Every one wants to know where they come
from. NO one wants to help me. Please let me find out who I am. Will you help me?"
Asked Irene.
"I see that you have a good heart, but you must also realize when all six parts
come together you will have great power. Each petal is guarded so they will not fall in to
the wrong hands. Fire petal with give you the ability to see things before they happen
and other kind of feelings that you will know what kind they are."
"I understand why you have to be so mean, but you can trust me," Irene told the
Dragon.
"There is the legend that a girl from another world will come seeking this petal.
What you have told me I know she is you. I will you give you this petal."
"Thank you."
His mouth open and he took out his tongue. On his tongue was the petal. Irene
picked it up and hanged it on her necklace. Her head started to hurt. She saw an image of
men coming towards the cave. She demanded the leave, but it was too late. Mark had
found them. Anthony knew now that Mark was the Phantom. Mark grabbed Irene's hand.
His men had Anthony surrounded. They walk out of the cave and his men followed.
Mark didn't move an inch worried that they would hurt Irene. Mark wasn't going to let
the future king live. Mark told his men to blow up the cave. Irene yelled, but it didn't
change Mark's mind.
Anthony heard a noise that didn't sound good. The Dragon told Anthony to go
and leave him. He had served his purpose. He hesitated to leave Doom here, but he knew
there was no way he could get out of the cave in time. Anthony ran thought the passage
that leads to an exit on the other side of the cave. When he got out side the whole cave
had caved in leaving no body or thing alive in the cave.
Mark laughed and went on his way to the Prince's castle. The Prince had just
gotten out in time. He found Fantasia and was on his way home to save his kingdom.
Mark noticed a change in Irene. She wasn't her old self. She wasn't arguing with
him about what he did. She questioned her.
"You know that you could have done any thing in your power to stop me, but you
didn't want to stop me. You knew if I could prevent your plan from exceeding then your
plan wasn't a very good one. You just used me to test your plan out."
"I never thought of it like that. I always enjoyed you sneakiness to stop me.
That's one of the things I liked about you. I know I can trust you."
"You can't trust any one in this life time."
"Is that some kind of warning?"
"Take it any way you like, but you will see what I mean very soon."
Mark and Irene had made it to the castle. No guard in sight. Philip showed
himself. He laughed and Mark knew he had betrayed him.
"How dear you betray me. I will make you pay. Men get him. What are you
standing around for?"
"They answer to me. Take him away. Come Irene be my wife."
"I will not. I rather be married to Mark than you. At least I know he respects me
and will treat me as if I was a special jewel. You don't want a wife. You want nothing
more than some one to love you and give you what you want when you want it. It
doesn't work like that."
"How do you know Mark never wanted the same?"
"He told me so and he showed me."
"So you love Mark."
"No, I give him credit for what he has done for me, but I can not forgive him for
the things he has done. But you are pure evil. You have no heart and can not love."
"I am sorry you feel that way, but you will still have no choice in the matter. Get
her ready for our wedding tonight."

They put her in a room with another woman. She was Queen Isabelle, Anthony's
mother. The Queen realized she was Irene. She told Irene that she had a plan to get her
out of this mess. The Queen knew not all the men in the castle were unfaithful to her.
They are pretending to go along until they receive a signal from the Queen.
"What has happen to Zoë?" Asked Tiffany.
"That foolish girl. She is trying to prevent her self from being killed. She is
amusing that idiot Philip. I can not believe I wanted her to marry my son. That's how
stupid a mother can be."
"No you are not. Some times you can't always see the person they are until they
unmask them selves. Your mistake could always be fixed. Your son had seen who she
really was."
"I like you a lot, and so does my son. Listen closely. The wedding doesn't begin
for another hour. You must find Mark and tell him of this plan. "
Irene nodded. She opened the door to see a guard down the hall way a sleep. She
quietly sneaked pass him. She knew the only place where Mark was being held would be
in the dungeon. She found the stair that lad down there. As she was walking down the
steps she could hear movements. She realized there were more guards down there. She
peeked behind the wall to see them sitting down playing a game. She looked a little
further to see the bars that separated her and Mark. She thought for a second on how to
get them to open the door to get Mark out. She was able to convince the guards to see
Mark. They opened the door and let her in. They closed the door when she was in. Mark
wasn't to pleased to see her. He was down since he had lost.
"I would think you would never give up. Are you not the same person who
bargained with me to save the life of a man if I came with you? Aren't you same man
who had every human being in this kingdom afraid when they heard you name?"
"Yes, you are right."
"So here is my plan. The only way to get out of his plan is if I can get you out of
here. If I save your life will you let me be? I want my freedom and I want you to leave
this kingdom alone."
"Fine you have my word."
"Good, before the wedding I will tell Phillip that I want a gift. This gift will see
you be killed and I will be the one to kill you. I will cut the ropes that tie your hands then
everything is up to you after that."
She asked to be let out. They opened the door and she walked backup the stairs.
She headed for the Queen's room.

Mean while Anthony was trying to find a way into the castle without
being seen. He found a window open way up on the second floor. There was no way he
could climb up there without anything to grab on to. Then he noticed some thing falling
down. It was bed sheets. He started to climb up and when he got to the top he peeked in
to see who was there. It was Zoe. She grabbed his hand and helped him up. Zoe
informed him of what was taking place. The wedding would take place in the thrown
room. They need to stop the wedding or there would be no way to stop him. Anthony was
confused. Zoe told him that Irene was no ordinary girl. She comes from a family of great
wealth. She is a princess. When he marries her he will gain two kingdoms. Her father
will ally with this kingdom and no one can stop him. Irene does not know. She was given
to a friend to take care of her. Her mother died when she was young. The king could not
bear to see her image in his daughter and to keep her safe. Also if she could see the pain
of the people then she could be a better ruler than he is. He wanted the best for his
daughter.
Philip kept on knocking on the door. Irene appeared behind him.
"I am right behind you. I was thinking and you know what would be a perfect
gift?"
"What?"
"You kill Mark on our wedding day. He has done so many terrible things to me.
He deserves to die and what better day than on a happy occasion."
"I like the way you think. You are much more than I imagine."
"Will I have no choice is being your wife so why not act like it."
"You are everything I have ever wanted."
"Then lets get married"
The music started and Irene was in place. She walked down when something hit
her.
Premonition:
Anthony's back was turned and he was stabbed from behind.

"His alive, but will die if I don't do something at the time," she whispered.
They brought out Mark and all the men were rooting.
"We are going to see Mark slaughtered."
"I want the pleasure of slashing this sword through his heart."
"As you please."
She grabbed the sword from his hand and walked towards Mark. As she was
about to cut him loose she saw an arrow come flying through. The arrow hit a man.
Another arrow was shot and more blood was shed. Phillip turned to see Anthony alive.
Phillip asked Irene for his sword back. Irene quickly cut Mark's hands free.
"What are you doing my dear?"
"I will not see this kingdom be destroyed by your wickedness."
Irene handed the sword over to Mark. Zoë and Jonathon appeared from their
hiding place.
"So you also joined their side Zoë. Even if you can't have the love of the Prince."
"One thing I have always knew is never to choose the wrong side and to put your
feelings a side for the need of your people," Zoe said.
"You will see when I am done with you all that you picked the wrong side to be
on."
"Good always wins over evil," Said Irene.
When she said that her eyes started to twinkle. Some thing inside was burning.
She never felt this strength and excitement. Something was taking over her. A wind
surrounded her and her hair blew up. A symbol appeared on her forehead. It was the
symbol of fire. A red orange substance like wind came out from her petal and it
surrounded Phillip. The substance became clearer and soon Phillip was covered with fire.
He burned until nothing was left of him. All his men collapsed. They were all under a
spill. That power drained all Irene's energy and she collapsed as well. Anthony caught
her.
"Irene wake up," Said Anthony.
"Where did that power come from?" Asked Zoë.
"It was that petal that she got from the Dragon Draco.
"She is a very special girl, but she must go back."
"Vos, what are you saying?" Asked Anthony.
"He is right my dear."
"Mother, what are you all talking about?"
"You know very well what we are talking about Anthony. She is from another
world. She came here for a reason and she must go back. She could never fulfill her
purpose here with you."
"Anthony."
"Yes Irene."
She opened her eyes, but she didn't move.
"I really love it when you call me Irene. In my world I am known has Tiffany."
"Tiffa."
"I must go back. I need to find out who I am."
"But I love you."
"I will always be with you. You know there is some one I know who is just like
you. He is your image. It seems that the people in my world exist here, but with different
personalities and names. Anthony I hope you are sweet as you are here in my world.
Please let Mark go. I see good in him. He made me a promise and I am sure he will keep
it."
"It will be hard to let you go."
"If you exist in my world than I am sure I exist in your world. I must have taken
over her body, and memories. So I will still be here. I am sure you will love her as much
as she will love you. Queen, I am ready for me to go home."
"Thank you Tiffany for your help. You will find happiness."
"You look like that girl who."
Before she could say any thing she disappeared. She landed back in the library.
