"I think we have to face facts," Renee Demetria Burgundy said, running a nervous hand through her hair. "Robert, our daughter found out she's a Dimension Walker and she's at Camp Walker."
"This wouldn't have happened if we have told her when she was thirteen," Robert Alvin Burgundy said.
"I was scared, okay?!" exclaimed the frantic woman.
Renee was a good mother. She cared about her children and always helped them out. She loved them equally and told them not to be afraid of telling her what they were feeling. Renee worked her ass off as a detective. When people saw her and Avril together, they would say they looked nothing alike. But, it was true. Renee had curly, auburn hair that reached down past her shoulders. She had peachy skin and golden amber eyes. She was tall and slim, with a few curves. Renee was very athletic and lean. She was a Hood, after all. She was a hunter, a Dimension Walker, and a wolf-blood.
Robert was the cool dad. He was very caring and not too stern towards his children. He was a dork and a nerd, like his children. Robert was the history teacher at Avril's school, as well as the school's part-time librarian. Robert didn't look anything like Avril, either. He had dark, dirty blonde hair and stormy-grey eyes. He was tall and lean, with slightly tanned skin. Like his wife, Robert was a Dimension Walker. He came from a small clan, the Burgundy clan, who were Givers, Scribes, and Librarians.
The couple was at their house, both pacing in their living room. A boy sat on the couch, watching them with worried eyes. The boy was Carter Cameron Burgundy, Avril's little brother. He was a mixture of his parents. He had his mother's auburn hair and his father's stormy-grey eyes. He was skinny, but lean. His skin was peachy, with a slight tan. Carter watched his parents, occasionally pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose. Even though he was only eleven years old, he understood things better and knew more things than any of his classmates.
"Mom, Dad," Carter said. "What are you talking about?"
"Your sister has been gone for days, Carter," Robert said.
"Well I know that!" Carter exclaimed. "I just want to know what you guys are talking about. What's a Dimension Walker and what's Camp Walker? Why would Avril be there? Did you sent her to summer camp? Why didn't you send me there too?"
"It's nothing, Carter," Renee quickly dismissed.
"Renee!" Robert exclaimed.
"Robert, he's not thirteen yet!" Renee hissed.
Soon, the two started bickering loudly. Carter frowned, and ran out of the room. He quickly went up the stairs and ran to the phone in the upstairs hallway. Carter quickly grabbed the phone and dialed a number. He put the phone to his ear, and waited patiently. Soon, the other line answered.
"This is Maxwell Σοφία," an eleven-year-old boy answered.
"Max," Carter said. "It's me."
"What's up, Cart?" Max said, cheerfully. "Your folks are arguing again?"
"This time it's getting strange," Carter said. "It's time for a meeting. Bring PJ and meet me at Primrose Park at the swings, ASAP. I'll call the girls."
"You got it boss," Max said and hung up.
Carter sighed, and quickly got ready. When the little siblings got together, it was nothing good.
…..
"It's my entire fault," Jason Theseus Σοφία said, rubbing his temple. "If I hadn't kept my family clan a secret, our little Ally-bear wouldn't have gone missing. Dear gods…she probably fell down a Rabbit Hole and ended up in another dimension!"
"Jason," Alexandra Paris Σοφία chided, giving her husband a stern look. "Stop thinking about the worst case scenario. You know you always freak out when you think about the worse."
"I'm just scared, alright?" Jason sighed.
Jason was a good father. He was a kind, charitable man who worked at his wife's family business. He worked his way to becoming CEO, in fact. He was smart, as well as wise. It wasn't hard to identify him as a Giver. He had dark blonde, slightly tan skin, and stormy-grey eyes; the usual Giver look. He was tall and slightly muscular, like an athlete. Jason was from Greece, but moved to America after a fire incident when he was fourteen, which was how he met Alexandra.
Speaking of Alexandra, she too was a good mother. She was the typical stay at home mom. She was sweet and nice, and never said anything hateful towards anyone. She was very intelligent, and would substitute at Ally's school from time to time. Just like her husband, she was a Giver. Though, she didn't look like it. She had chestnut-brown hair with amber highlights, her curls cascading down to her hips. She had fair skin and round, owlish eyes that were pure brown. She was curvy, slim, and had a round face.
Ally took after her mother, but acted like her father. She was their eldest daughter, and they always worried about her. Now, she was missing and they knew that she probably found out about her Dimension Walker heritage. They sat in the living room. Jason was pacing back and forth, while Alexandra was cuddling with her son, Perseus Jayson.
Perseus Jayson, like Ally, took after his mother. He had chestnut hair, but no amber highlights. He had round, owlish eyes that were pure brown. He was small and skinny for a nine-year-old, but he made up for it with his intelligence. Perseus Jayson, or PJ, was very quiet that sometimes people mistake him for being mute.
"Momma," PJ said. "When's Ally coming home?"
"I don't know, my little gladiator," Alexandra sighed. "But, Papa's going to make sure she comes home safely."
"M'kay," the boy muttered.
Suddenly, a boy ran into the room and pointed at PJ. "We gotta go!" he exclaimed, loudly.
Jason jumped up in surprise, cursing in Greek. The boy was their older son, Maxwell Eli Σοφία. Max took after his father. He had dark blonde hair and stormy-grey eyes. His skin was peachy, with a slight tan. He was smart, as well as crafty. He was book-smart, as well as street-smart. All in all, he could be the nerd of the family as well as the trickster of the family.
"Max!" Alexandra exclaimed. "Don't scare us like that."
"Sorry, Mom!" the eleven-year-old apologize quickly. "Carter said we have to meet up at Primrose Park. Is it okay if I bring PJ?"
"Just don't get into trouble," Jason said. "It's bad enough your sister went missing…I don't want you to go missing too."
"Alright, Dad," Max said. "Come on, PJ!"
"Yay!" PJ exclaimed, jumping out of his mom's lap. "Adventure!"
Both boys rushed out of the house, while their parents decided to contact the Burgundy's.
…
Meanwhile, in the Kingfisher household, things were a bit calmer. A man was in the library, speaking to another man on the phone. The man had dark brown hair, brown eyes, and a frown on his face. He spoke with a British accent, and used British terms. He was Will Scarlet Kingfisher, Alice's father.
"Are you sure you saw my Alice at the train station heading for Camp Walker?" he asked. "Bloody hell…"
A woman entered the library, standing next to the man. The woman had dark, yellow-blonde hair, light blue eyes, and fair skin. The woman was none other than Alice's mom, Jane Alice Kingfisher. She softly tapped the man's shoulder, getting his attention. Will looked at her and his frown melted away. He bid the other man on the phone goodbye and hung up. He reached over kissed his wife on the lips.
"Was that your friend, Will?" Jane asked, tilting her head.
"Yes, Jane," the man, Will, said. "He…confirmed Alice and her friends went to Camp Walker. We…we should've told her when she came of age…"
He frowned, looking away. Jane shook her head, and grasped his chin. They locked eyes, staring deeply at each other. It was no surprise that they were a couple. Jane had met Will on an adventure to Wonderland. He was a palace guard, proudly protecting the Royal Family of Wonderland. Jane was a girl who had no idea she was a Dimension Walker. She had fallen in love with the story of "Alice in Wonderland". So, of course, she discovered a rabbit hole and thought it could take her to Wonderland. It was true, and she ended up in the Royal Family's garden, landing right on top of Will. The rest was history.
Suddenly, the door slammed open and two girls marched right in. The taller girl walked right up to her parents, smiling widely. She had long, curly yellow-blonde hair and pure brown eyes. She wore a dark pink dress, light pink sweater cardigan, and black Mary-Jane shoes. She wore a headband with a large, snow-white bow. The girl looked about eleven years old, a bit tall for her age.
"Annabelle Willow Kingfisher," Jane said, with a slight smirk. "What is it, sweetie? Your dad and I were having a very important conversation."
"Can me and Sarah go to Primrose Park to meet with Carter, Max, and PJ?" Annabelle asked; her British accent light and sweet.
Behind her, an eight-year-old girl looked up at Jane with large eyes. The little girl had straight, medium brown hair and bright, blue eyes. She wore a baby-blue "Alice in Wonderland" shirt underneath a white sweater cardigan, black jeans, and dark blue Mary-Jane shoes. The little girl was holding a plush white rabbit in arms, close to her chest.
Jane knelt down, and smiled towards the girl.
"You really want to go with your sister, Sarah?" Jane asked.
"Yeah Mama," Sarah smiled. "I wanna play with PJ!"
Jane chuckled, and ruffled both her daughters' hair. "Go on, then."
Both girls cheered, and rushed off.
….
Primrose Park was usually very active during the summer. But today, no one was around. Everyone was busy searching for Avril-Drew Burgundy, Ally Σοφία, and Alice Kingfisher. The girls have been missing for days, making everyone believe there was a kidnapper on the loose. Parents kept their children inside, or came alone with them.
Carter was glad he had the cool parents because they let him go anywhere he wanted without being watched. Bad things never happened to him, oddly. It was like something was protecting him, like a guardian angel. Of course, that was a silly thought. He knew that was just fiction. But, Carter loved to pretend fiction was reality sometimes.
The young boy headed towards the Japanese Gardens, towards Sakura River. The park was quite large, so it had sections. Japanese Gardens was one of those sections. It had its own river and lake, as well as a mini-waterfall. Carter arrived at Ruby Bridge, which was over Sakura River. Japanese cherry blossom trees grew at the river's bank, making cherry blossom petals fall into the water. The river was covered in pink petals, along with lily pads floating along.
Max and PJ arrived first. The boys looked over the bridge, grabbing falling petals and tossing them into the river. Annabelle and Sarah arrived, joining the boys in their game. They all were laughing and smiling, while throwing petals at each other and chasing after one another. Soon, they all sat down by a willow tree. PJ and Sarah fell asleep on their older siblings' laps, while Carter sat between Max and Annabelle.
"What's going on, Cart?" asked Annabelle, worriedly. "Were your folks fighting again? You know they stop eventually, right?"
"I know that," Carter sighed, staring up at the sky. "But this time they said…weird things…"
"Like?"
"They said Avril was a 'Dimension Walker' and she went to some place called Camp Walker," Carter muttered.
"Camp Walker?" Max asked. "I heard that name before…"
"Really?" said Carter and Annabelle, in unison.
"Yeah," Max said. "Mom and Dad were talking about it before the last week of school. They said something about taking me, PJ, and Ally there in July."
"Why would they want to take you to a summer camp?" Annabelle asked. "Summer camp is boring!"
"And how would you know?" Carter asked. "You never been to a summer camp before!"
Carter and Annabelle soon started bickering, smacking each other and calling each other names. Max rolled his eyes, and looked down at PJ. PJ and Sarah had disappeared. Max frantically looked, until he saw Sarah and PJ sitting by Sakura River. They were playing with the cherry blossom petals and splashing the water. Max sighed, shaking his head.
"Where are you, Ally?" Max muttered to himself. "Are you really at a summer camp? Or is it something else?"
...
Later that day, the Burgundy's, Σοφία's, and Kingfisher's went over to the Burgundy's home. Their kids were having a sleepover, and were all sleeping in Carter's room. The adults sat in the living room, all wearing a sober expression.
"We all know why were here," Renee said. "Avirl, Ally, and Alice...have most likely learned about their Dimension Walker heritage and gone to Camp Walker."
"Also...a quest has been issued," Will added. "Five Dimension Walkers and two cargo went into the Land of Shadows."
"Who are the Dimension Walkers?" Jane asked.
Will frowned deeply. "Natalia Olivia Wayne the daughter of Overseer, Carolina Laura Crescent the daughter of Deamata, a Giver, a Rabbit, and an undetermined."
Renee paled. "An undetermined?" she asked.
"They think she is a Mixed from Hood clan," Will explained. "But there is something about her aura that is...off."
Renee covered her mouth, shaking her head. Her eyes turned watery, and she leaned against Robert. The others looked at her, confused.
"I knew this would happen," Renee said, shakily. "I knew this would happen yet I kept her from it. Robert, I'm a terrible mother!"
"Renee, don't talk like that!" Robert scolded. "It's not your fault!"
"Yes it is!" Renee insisted. "If it wasn't for that goddamn god...Avril would've of...been...normal..."
Renee broke down in sobs. The others looked at them, beyond confused. Robert looked at them, and sighed.
"You better swear to your clans' honor and name you won't tell a soul," Robert said.
They nodded, crossing their hearts. Robert sighed, and told them the whole story.
"Alright, it all started when me and Renee when hunting..."
...
