The next day, the Seven Dakotas prepared to go visit Prince Neal again. Their plan was to tell him Sara White was spending time on their lair, and invite him to visit her.

As they prepared to leave, Vinnie gave Sara some last advices.

"Remember, that queen's able to do lots of dangerous things. Be very aware of strangers."

"Don't worry. I'll be okay." Sara guaranteed, kissing his forehead and giving him her green ribbon. "Good luck for you and your friends."

"Aw, shucks..." Vinnie blushed, as he stepped forward. Each of them got forehead kisses, the last one being Elite.

"I'm warning, kid: don't dare letting anyone get in. If something happens to you..."

"Oh… worried about her now, huh?" Vinnie teased.

"So what?" Elite replied.

"Okay, boys. You have things to do, remember?" Sara White giggled, then kissing Elite's forehead, making him blush and the others laugh.

As they all left, Sara's critter friends stayed in the woods and lake, to help her watch over any possible threats. The bird couple stayed vigilant at the window, watching as Sara White arranged the kitchen table.

Not too far from there, Balthazar and Milo followed Diogee, as he sniffled the trails, trying to guess where have Sara been since she ran away.

"These woods… this specific part of them..." Balthazar muttered. "It had your mother's favourite flowers. Chrysanthemums, flowers that symbolize optimism."

"Your memories are flooding back very quickly." Milo commented, behind in, branches and nests dropping out of nowhere. "I think by the time we find Sara, you'll might remember all that happened before Queen Savannah."

Diogee then turned around and barked, as if telling them something bad. Hearing the disguised Queen's cackle confirmed that intention. The former slave and the prince quickly hid behind the trees.

"It's her." Prince Milo whispered. "What do we do?" A squirrel chirped nearby him, and then many other squirrels came over and surrounded the Queen.

"Move away, you small-brain pests!" The Queen growled, trying to get them out of the way.

"It's our chance! Let's go!" Balthazar decided, and he, Prince Milo and Diogee rushed to the woods. All the critters heard the squirrels' effort and joined it to prevent the Quee to reach Sara White.

The Princess was just finishing watering the plants and giving some food to the platypus in the lake.

"Sister!" A familiar voice surprised her, and she was delighted to see Milo and Diogee.

"Little brother!" She extended her arms and hugged him tightly. "Oh, I'm so happy to see you!" Diogee then pounced on her arms and licked her face. "Oh, Diogee!"

"Your Majesty, I am so happy we came in time." Balthazar greeted respectfully.

"Is that..."

"Yeah! Queen Savannah trapped Balthazar on that mirror, but he's free now." Milo explained. The bird couple on the window flew to the former slave's shoulders. "And you're in danger, Sara. The Queen's disguised and she's coming to try poisoning you!"

"What?"

"You have to hide. Where are the Seven Dakotas?" Balthazar asked, looking around.

"T-they left to Prince Neal's kingdom, on the north." Sara pointed out. "Said they were going to tell him i was here."

"Milo, stay here with her. I got to reach them." He decided, leaving in a quick sprint. The bird couple then grabbed his coattails with their beaks and pulled him to the right direction. "Oh, okay, is this direction? I'm going!"

As Milo and Sara entered the house, she remembered about the platypus on the lake. She then rushed back to the lake to get him, but…

"Hello, little one." A voice called her attention and a shadow covered her and the critter. She looked up and gasped. There was an old woman with a fruit basket.

"Oh, no!" Milo feared.
