A New Family for an Angel
Chapter 7: A Final Goodbye and Sudden Revelations
Dream Sequence
Mariangela is back at the same cave where she and Christopher were held captive in as she turns as she sees Gabriella being placed on that table. She sees the three men doing horrible things to her. "Mommy", Mariangela said to them as she is running towards them as she wants to help her. Gabriella is screaming in agony and pain from the magical torture in front of her. She is running towards to them as she wants to save her.
Mariangela is trying to reach towards Gabriella. However, just as she is almost there, Gabriella is further and further away from her. "Mommy come back please", Mariangela said to them as she sees them being further away from her.
"You naïve girl, your mommy is never coming back". Javier's voice said to Mariangela as the scenery changes as it looks like a dark and desolate place.
Mariangela is stunned as she notices that the scenery has completely changed from what it is. "Show yourself Javier, Mariangela said out there as she knows what Javier's voice sounds like. "You are a coward for running away and not being captured'. Mariangela said out there as she wants to fight against Javier.
"A coward haha, Javier has his reasons to go into deep hiding. Yet you already met a coward and spineless person already who has turned a new leaf". A new male voice said to Mariangela as it gets her attention as she is wondering who he is.
Mariangela frowns as she feels strange like energy is taken from her. "Who are you? You are not Prince George, and why did you know Javier's name"? Mariangela asks out there as it is obvious to her that this voice is clearly a bad guy, but it is not Prince George.
"Once again, you are very perceptive Mariangela. Yet you are an impressive girl that I should have gotten my hands on you when you were a baby and definitely not in the hands of that black sheep of the family, Queen Miranda". A female voice said to Mariangela as it is very clear who it is to her.
Mariangela frowns as she knows that voice as she has seen her before at school and another house. She feels more energy being drained from her again. "Renee, how do you know Queen Miranda? Plus Olivia is better without you, and Christopher is truly reunited with his real mother". Mariangela said out there as she can tell who the female voice belonging to.
"I am surprised that she has not told you about me like she has not told you who your first father is. Yet Christopher is pathetic boy that should have been sent further away from that black sheep. No matter, you will find out soon enough". Renee's voice said to Mariangela as the scenery changed again as she is back to where she is before.
Mariangela is stunned as she sees Gabriella being magically tortured again by the same three individuals in that cave that night. "MOMMY, MOMMY, STOP HURTING MY MOMMY,NO", Mariangela yells and screams out loud as the nightmare is plaguing her still.
End Dream Sequence
Christopher and Roland went to check on Mariangela as they can tell that she is having another nightmare again. Mariangela shots up as she has a cold sweat deeply glistening on her forehead as she is crying. "Everything is going to be ok Mariangela". Christopher said to Mariangela as he is comforting her.
Roland looks at Mariangela as Miranda also walks in the room as she is wondering what was the dream about. "Sweetheart, what was the dream about"? Roland asks Mariangela as he is wondering what kind of nightmare it was about.
Mariangela looks at Roland as it is a terrible one to say the least. She felt like some of her energy has been taken from her. "I was trying to reach out to my mommy when they were hurting her. However, the scenery changed to a dark and desolate place. I heard Javier's voice, but I also heard Renee's voice and a male voice that I don't recognize or even know. Then the scenery changed again when they were magically torturing her again". Mariangela said to Roland as she is crying profusely.
Roland and Miranda look at each other as they are curious about things. "How did you know Renee"? Miranda asks Mariangela as she starts out with that. Mariangela looks at Miranda as she explains to her that she has known her since being placed Jennifer's class. Miranda frowns as that woman has done horrible things to her for years. Plus she is getting mad when she learns that Renee called Christopher pathetic.
Roland frowns as he is deeply aware that Olivia is Renee's daughter. "We are deeply aware that Renee has done terrible things at Royal Prep as well. However, what did that unknown voice said to you"? Roland asks Mariangela as he is curious about it.
Mariangela looks at Roland as she can tell that he wants to know about it. "He said in thy quote, A coward haha, Javier has his reasons to go into deep hiding. Yet you already met a coward and spineless person already who has turned a new leaf. He was even laughing about it as well". Mariangela said to them as she is wondering who it is.
Roland is stunned as he knows what kind of creature would say that to her. "You probably heard Wormwood saying that to you, Mariangela". Roland said to Mariangela as he is wondering how Wormwood would say that to her. 'Wormwood is locked up in the Mystic Isles on the night Vor was defeated. Plus Cedric probably doesn't know where else that raven has been during that time when it left him'. Roland thought to himself as he is wondering how that is even possible.
Christopher looks at them as he doesn't know about this particular being. "Wormwood, it definitely sounds like a bad being". Christopher said to Roland as he is wondering more about him.
Roland looks at Christopher as he agrees with him. "You don't know the half of it Christopher". Roland said to Christopher as he is wondering how it is possible that Mariangela heard his voice when he is locked up in the Mystic Isles. As Mariangela gets comforted, she drinks some warm milk as she drifts back to sleep.
It is the day before the visitation and the funeral. Roland, Mariangela, Baileywick, and Elena are in the grand ball room as they see the piles of gifts, cards, flowers, and toys that are sorted where they where they are from by kingdom, but not who it is from.
Mariangela sighs as it is a lot to go through plus some of them needs to be donated as well. "I want all of the gifts, dolls, and flowers from Prince George and his family to be donated to those in need here in Avalor. However, I want the cards from him and his family to be thrown out". Mariangela said to them as she doesn't want them.
Elena looks at Mariangela as she can tell that she wants them out first. "Well Maraingela, we may need to find out which kingdom Prince George and his family are from to help us narrow down things". Elena said to Mariangela as it is a good place to start.
Mariangela looks at them as it is something to think about. "Prince George is from the kingdom of Dominica. I just don't want them to go to waste". Mariangela said to them as she is wondering how each thing will be used for.
Baileywick looks around as he spots the pile from that particular kingdom. "Dominica, it is in the way in the back of the room it seems". Baileywick said to Mariangela as he has some paper and a pen to write down who it is from and what it is for thank you cards.
The four of them sees the pile of things that came from the kingdom of Dominica. Mariangela sighs as it is not divided and sorted from who it is from in that kingdom. "Let's get these thing sorted and filtered out". Mariangela said to them as she does want those from ordinary citizens from that particular kingdom and not from that particular royal family.
Baileywick nods as he looks at Mariangela as she wants things done. "You are right. Plus it seems that the things from that family are a bit excessive of you asks me". Baileywick said to Mariangela as she can't help but to agree with that. As the four of them sorts them out, Baileywick has some paper in his hands to write down the names of the ordinary people including the king and queen of Dominica for the thank you cards. Plus the various servants are come in the room to carry out the gifts, dolls, and flowers from the royal family of Dominica to be donated to those in need in Avalor.
Mariangela sighs as that is out of the way. She notices other flowers and funeral wreaths that needs to be handled. "I want the funeral wreath flowers be used for the funeral service and the visitation as well. Is Queen Miranda going over there today to see what the church looks like on the inside"? Mariangela asks them as she wants to know that.
Baileywick looks at Mariangela as he is planning to go with them. "Yes, I do believe, Queen Miranda, Princess Elena, Spencer, Kimberly, Rosa, Rebecca, Chloe and I are going over there soon". Baileywick said to Mariangela as he tells her who will be going over there.
Mariangela looks at Baileywick as she notices other gifts, flowers, dolls, and cards as it is getting overwhelming. "Thank you, how long can all of this be cleared out of this room. It will be a great room for the visitation. I mean there needs to be tables in here to place photos and trophies down. Also, there are places to sit down". Mariangela said for them as she is wondering about that and when it will be done.
Elena looks at Mariangela as she can tell that she is getting overwhelming. "It is not long at all. You just need to tell us what you want to do with the rest of them". Elena said to Mariangela as she wants some sort of direction as the servants are coming in.
Mariangela nods as the various servants are ready for some sort of direction. "Thanks, I do want to pick out the gifts and dolls I do to keep. As for the vases filled with flowers, I want to use them for the visitation. As for the dolls and gifts that I don't want to keep to be, I want to donated to those in need in Enchancia. Enchancia is going to be my new and permanent home. Plus I want the gifts, toys, and dolls to be shipped back to Enchancia for me to sort out there instead of here". Mariangela said to them as she makes a swift decision about the items here.
Roland nods as he looks at Mariangela as he can tell that she will make a fine princess. "You are so right Mariangela. Plus since there is at least one Enchancia ship already at the port, it will be easy to load up those items and to be shipped back to Enchancia". Roland said to Mariangela as the servants got to work with the items while Baileywick writes down who it is from and where for more thank you cards.
The grand ball room is cleared out again as Tilly and Bartleby walk in the room as Miranda and King Garrick are with them. "Hello Roland", Tilly said to Roland as she gives him a hug. Bartleby nods to Roland as it is good to see him.
Mariangela looks at Tilly as she is wondering how Roland knows her. "Mariangela this is Tilly and her husband Sir Bartleby. Tilly is actually my sister". Roland said to Mariangela as he explains to her that she is his sister
Tilly looks at Mariangela as she smiles to her. "You must be Mariangela. I have heard a lot about you already. I am Tilly". Tilly said to Mariangela as she can tell that the girl has been through a lot.
Mariangela looks at Tilly as she can tell that her facial features are similar to Roland's. "Hello, are you the cool aunt of the family? Plus is Tilly short for something? Even though I never have an aunt before, it has grown one more from Queen Miranda's sister and sister in law". Mariangela asks Tilly as she is wondering about it.
Tilly looks at Mariangela as she gets to her eye level. "Well, that is going to change honey. I am the cool and fun aunt. I do mean to get to know Rosa and Rebecca as well and so do you. Plus it is short for Matilda. Of course, I am Aunt Tilly to you as well". Tilly said to Mariangela as she smiles to her.
Mariangela smiles as she looks at Tilly as she was right that she is fun and cool. "I was right then. Rebecca is really nice while Rosa is nice but tough and fair kind of woman". Mariangela said to Tilly as she is looking forward to get to know her as well.
Tilly looks at Mariangela as she has another adventurer on her hands. "Well thank you, I go on various whiz bang adventures all the time". Tilly said to Mariangela as she goes into whiz bang logic.
Mariangela looks at Tilly as she has never heard of that before. "Whiz bang, that is a word that I have never seen in a dictionary before", Maraingela said to Tilly as she is wondering what that means. She doesn't realize that it is a special word.
Tilly looks at Mariangela as she is wondering just what kind of upbringing she had. "It means fun" dear. My, you really need some fun in your life". Tilly said to Mariangela as she has her work cut out for her. She is wondering when that will happen let alone getting started.
Mariangela looks at Tilly as she understands that now. "Oh ok", Mariangela said to Tilly as the word is a bit foreign to her.
Tilly smiles as she looks at Mariangela as she does understand it now. Mariangela looks at Bartleby as she is curious about him. "So what do you do Sir Bartleby"? Mariangela asks Bartleby as she is wondering about him.
Bartleby looks at Mariangela as he is caught off guard that she would talk to him. "Me, I am still a knight in the kingdom of Enchancia"
Mariangela looks at Bartleby as she hears his voice for the first time as it doesn't bother her. "Thats really cool", Mariangela said to Bartleby as she is fine with his voice.
Bartleby nods to Mariangela as he has one question to ask her. "Why thank you, tell me why didn't you get scared or make fun of me because of my voice"? Bartleby asks Mariangela as they notice that she didn't laugh or bothering her deeply.
Mariangela looks at Bartleby as she has a simple answer for that. "Your voice is a part of who you are as a person. I don't judge you for having an odd voice. People who make fun of you doesn't understand or accept that is a part of who you are as a person. Your true colors and character are bright and true to yourself". Mariangela said to Sir Bartleby as she can tell that he is an unique person.
Sir Bartleby is stunned as he never heard a kid saying that. "Wow, I never really thought about it like that before especially when I was growing up. That means a lot to me". Sir Bartleby said to Mariangela as Tilly is wondering how she learned that or even explained it so well.
King Garrick looks at Mariangela as he can tell that she is a wise young lady. Miranda nods as she can tell that people need to listen and learn from her. Mariangela looks at them as she is getting the feeling that some grown up talk needs to be done. "I take it that you need to talk without me in the room". Mariangela said to them as she doesn't like the lull awkwardness in the room.
Miranda nods as she looks at Mariangela as she nods to her. "Yes honey, I am about to head towards the church along with the other ladies and Baileywick. Tilly, do you want to join us". Miranda said to Tilly as Elena and Baileywick are going with them.
Tilly looks at Miranda as she agrees with her. "Of course, I would like to see what the church looks like on the inside and being caught up things". Tilly said to Miranda as she will want to go with them
King Garrick looks at them as he does want to talk to Roland about something. "My sons Hugo and Axel are with the other kids Mariangela while I talk to King Roland". King Garrick said to Mariangela as it will distract her for a bit. Mariangela nods as she looks at King Garrick as she leaves the room. King Roland and King Garrick also went to another room to talk.
The women and Baileywick are getting into the carriages. Chloe is among them as she smiles it is good to get out of the mansion and getting to know the others. "Thank you for inviting me along Queen Miranda, I really do want to get to know all of you". Chloe said to them as she is being around friendly faces as a couple of guards are seeing them off to head towards the church.
Miranda nods as she looks at Chloe as she smiles to her. "You are welcome Chloe. Plus we will want to see the various seating and pews in the church as well". Miranda said to them as she is wondering what the church looks like for tomorrow's service.
It is a not long carriage ride as the group of them arrives at the church. The group gets out as they see the gothic style building. The priest comes out as he sees the group of women and one man. "Ah welcome, I take it this is for the Garcia funeral service tomorrow". The priest said to them as he is making sure that they are here for.
Queen Miranda nods as she looks at the priest. "That's right, we want to take a good look around for the seating arrangements and who will be giving various speeches". Queen Miranda said to the priest as she is wondering what will be needed.
The priest nods as the funeral wreaths are being brought inside of the church. "Of course come on in", the priest said to them as he leads the way inside of the church. The women and Baileywick walk inside of the church as it is huge building with stain glass windows and about fifty pews on both sides including a few of them in the back.
The group is in awe by the beauty inside of the church as well as the main alter and choir seats. It has two podiums as well. "Can the various speakers choose between which podiums to speak from"? Rosa asks the priest as she is wondering about it.
The priest nods as he looks at Rosa as they are taking notes about things. "Yes, I normally speak from that podium for the sermons while the people doing lesson reading do it from that podium on a normal Sunday service". The priest said to them as he explains to them about the different podiums.
The group nods as they went up to the choir seats and alter as well. There are three pews on both sides of the aisle as well. "How many people can sit per row"? Tilly asks the priest as she has her question as she is wondering about it.
The priest looks at Tilly as he knows that they will have all sorts of questions. "Seven people can sit comfortably per pew and it is also the same amount of people per row down as well". The priest said to them as he explains to how many people can be fitted per row.
Miranda nods as she looks at the priest as she is thinking about the George situation. "So only 21 people per side then, plus there will be a number of people that will want to speak as well". Miranda said to the priest as she wants to make sure that Prince George doesn't get a chance to speak at the funeral. She wants to set a limit on who will speak at the funeral.
The priest looks at Miranda as it is good thinking on her math as well. "Well yes your majesty", the priest said to Miranda as he is wondering if they have any other questions.
Kimberly looks at the building as she is thinking about the George situation. "Are there seats in the back row for the ushers to lead them to"? Kimberly asks the priest as she wants to know that.
The priest nods as he is getting the feeling that there is someone that will be placed back there to sit during the entire service. "Yes, those pews in the back will do its job perfectly". The priest said to Kimberly as he explains to them that there are pews in the back row.
Rebecca nods as they look around much further as she is thinking about a room. "Is there a parlor room for the family to be in before the service gets started"? Rebecca asks the priest as she is wondering about a parlor room to wait in.
The priest looks at them as he nods to them. "There is a chapel room that will be suitable for the size of people as well". The priest said to them as he leads them to the chapel.
In the chapel, the women and Baileywick notice the smaller room as it is suitable for them. Spencer notices a plaque on a pew. "It says in memory of Angelo Garcia from Fernando and Esmeralda Garcia". Spencer said to them as it gets their attention.
Elena looks at the plaque as she nods to them as she realizes that the family were members of this particular church. "Oh yes, my father remember them fondly. He baptized Gabriella in this church a very long time ago. Of course, he died not too long ago as well. Angelo is buried in the church cemetery as well. The Garcia's does have a burial plot as well". The priest said to them as it is a heartbreaking situation.
The group look at each other as burial has been a sticky subject as well. As they checked it out, it is well maintained over the years as well. "Roland told Mariangela that he will place in a special headstone for her family at the castle cemetery in Enchancia. Plus there is enough room for her family to be buried here as well". Miranda said to the priest as it is suitable for them.
The priest nods as he makes a note for that as workers get to work to make four holes for their caskets. "Of course", the priest said to Miranda as it is one of the conversations that they had in the last couple of days as well.
As they make their way back to the church, the group placed the funeral wreaths in the main sancturary as they don't need much to decorate the room. Chloe gets the first three rows of the pews marked reserved for family only. They thank the priest for the look around as they get back into the carriages to head back to the mansion as well.
As the group returns they notice the guards appended Chloe's parents. "There you are Chloe. You just had to see people who knew that pathetic Jennifer". Francine said to Chloe as she is furious that her wayward daughter is here in Avalor.
Chloe frowns as she glares at her estranged parents. "You two are the ones that took me away against my will even when I am already 18 years old". Chloe said to them as she is getting the feeling that they found out where she is by accident.
Louis frowns as he glares at Chloe as this is getting annoying. "You were told to follow our lead not getting yourself pregnant like Eliza. What we did to sever ties with that unwanted girl was best for you. You just had to keep that secret from us for years. You are the ones that brought shame to our family". Louis said to Chloe as he glares to her.
Chloe frowns as she notices that Roland and Garrick are right behind them. "I know what a family looks like who truly cares about me. As far as I am concerned, you two are the murderers of Eliza Clark because you two took her from me. I made a promise to Eliza that I will never turn my back on her child when she told me about being pregnant. As far as I am concerned, you two will never be family to me again. Plus you two are wanted criminals in the kingdom of Novanima". Chloe said to them as she has a wild smirk on her face.
Francine looks at Chloe as she doesn't really know what is up. "What are you babbling about Chloe? There is no way that a royal from anywhere that will listen to you since you gotten pregnant out of wedlock". Francine said to Chloe as she thinks that they will not listen to her.
Roland looks at them as he is not amused about it as Elena, Roland the first, Kimberly, and Miranda are furious with them. "I suggest that you look behind you and around you because there are various royals". Roland said to them as he has that mad dad expression on his face.
Francine and Louis are stunned as they realize that there are royals here at this mansion. Miranda looks at them as she has done some digging into things. "You two have funded that special group home for years and has ties to Renee Martinez as well. You two made sure that my first born went to her hands with out a second glance. When that place closed, you didn't have a place to fund anymore". Miranda said to them as she glares at them as she is furious that they are the ones that gave Christopher to Renee when he was a baby.
Louis frowns as he realizes that she figured it out. "Yes, we did gave Christopher to Renee. Another couple wanted to adopt Christopher at birth, but Renee paid us handsomely to make sure that didn't happen". Louis said to them as he admits on what they did back then.
Elena is stunned as she looks at the guards as they are holding them in a grip. "Take them back to the castle dungeon", I have to discuss with King Garrick and Queen Abigail to decide on a punishment for them". Elena said to them as she doesn't want to see them. The guards nod as they take the two parents away. As Roland explains to them what happened, Chloe is glad that things with her parents are finished.
It is the morning of the visitation and funeral as everyone in the mansion is getting ready for it. As the kids are in the main ballroom of the mansion, Roland, Miranda, and Chloe are in the dining room as they have something to discuss with her. "Chloe, we know how hard this day is going to be for you. You're your parents are now in jail. However, there is something you should know as well". Miranda said to Chloe as she places the family tree in front of her.
Chloe looks at Miranda as she looks at the family tree as she is deeply shocked to see Jennifer's, line, Mariangela's line, Sofia's line, and Christopher's line connected to a man named Dirk Balthazar. Roland looks at Chloe as this news is going to be hard for her to swallow. "Jennifer had two more half siblings that she never knew about besides Mariangela". Roland said to Chloe as he gives her the news. "Did Lorenzo ever tell you about it"? Roland asks Chloe as he is wondering if she knew about it.
Chloe looks at Roland as she nods to him as it was a secret that she kept from Jennifer. "It was on my 18th birthday during my visit to them. Lorenzo and I talked while the others took Jennifer and Mariangela out into town for a bit. He told me that Jennifer has three half siblings in which Mariangela is one on them. However, he and Gabriella are planning to tell Mariangela and Jennifer about their true relation and other two half siblings on their 16th birthday. He explained to me that they raised Jennifer and Mariangela as cousins not telling them that they are actually half sisters. I completely understood why they raised them as cousins". Chloe said to them as she thinks and reflects about it.
Miranda looks at Chloe as she can understand why they had it like that. She pulls out a picture of Gabriella and the man that Mariangela asked about. "Do you remember this man next to Gabriella"? Miranda asks Chloe as she is wondering if she ever saw or met him.
Chloe looks at the picture of the man as she nods yes to her. "Yes I do, Eliza told me about him a few times. They secretly dated when his ship was in port in Norberg. She was head over heals over him. However, one day, Eliza came home crying and deeply devastated. She told me that she took a trip to see him and surprise him in Enchancia. However, when she saw him, she saw him kissing another woman heading out the woman had a child with her. Eliza never confronted them and went back home. About a week later, he came back to Norberg. Eliza confronted him about what she saw. That's when he told her that it was his wife and young daughter. Eliza dumped him on that day and never looked back. About a month after that, Eliza found out that she was pregnant. Of course, my parents also found out about it and sent her to that home". Chloe said to them as remembered about it. She pulls out a locket necklace that once belonged to Eliza. She opens it up to find a picture of Eliza and a picture of the same man. "The week before, Eliza gave me this necklace and told me never to take it off and hide it from our parents. I kept my word on it all this time". Chloe said to them as she tells them that Eliza told her about him.
Miranda sighs as she looks at Chloe as timing of it is right back then. "The woman and the baby that Eliza saw with him back then are me and Sofia. I was his wife. It must have been devastating for Eliza when she saw the truth back then. I never knew that Dirk had more than one affair until very recently. I do not like how he had a relationship with Gabriella and Eliza back then. Yet it resulted with two kids who didn't know how their conception came to be. I do have room in my heart to welcome Mariangela into my life. Plus I would have loved to get a chance to get to know Jennifer as well. Unfortunately, it will not be possible now". Miranda said to Chloe as she knows that it will not be possible to get to know Jennifer as well.
Chloe nods as she looks at Miranda and Roland as it is not long that various guest are starting to come in. "Yeah, I would like to get to know Sofia and Christopher as well. I like to think that my life is starting to look up a little bit despite the circumstances that I don't have Jennifer and Lorenzo in my life anymore". Chloe said to them as she is it is going to be a heavy day. Miranda and Roland agree that Chloe should get to know Sofia and Christopher better. They leave the room as the visitation is about to get started.
In main ballroom, the kids are in the room along with a few adults as the visitation is getting started. Mariangela sighs as she sees that ball room has been appropriately decorated and various pictures, flowers, and trophies. Plus there are places to sit for guests that will be here as well. Mariangela sighs as she is wearing her black dress as her hair is down with some light curls in her red hair. There is some light somber music playing in the background.
The first group of people coming in is various students, parents, and couple of teachers from Royal Prep. Some of the guys went over to the trophy display while the others went over to see Amber, James, and Sofia. Hildegard looks at Amber as she looks at a picture of Lorenzo Garcia. "It is not going to be the same without him isn't it". Hildegard said to Amber as she is also wearing a black dress as she notices a picture of the teacher with his daughter Jennifer. "I did not know that he had a daughter though". Hildegard said to Amber as they are wondering what else their teacher kept from them.
Amber looks at Hildegard as she looks at the picture of him and Jennifer. "I didn't either until recently. Plus he left behind his niece Mariangela". Amber said to Hildegard as she turns to see Mariangela sitting with Christopher and Cedric.
Hildegard looks at the red headed girl sitting with the royal sorcerer of Enchancia and another boy. "You mean she was the only one that survived that horrible incident". Hildegard said to Amber as she is shocked by it.
Amber nods as she looks at Hildegard as it is a tough pill to swallow about it. "Yeah, I have not asked her about what happened. My parents know about it especially from Christopher". Amber said to Hildegard as she can not imagine what horrors that Mariangela went through and watched.
Hildegard looks at the boy next to Mariangela as she notices something about him. "You mean the dark brown headed boy. He is like a splitting image of your mom though. Can you introduce me to him"? Hildegard asks Amber as she sees him being very cute.
Amber looks at Hildegard as she gives her a look as now is not the right time to talk about it. "I will do that later, but let me introduce you to Mariangela first though". Amber said to Hildegard as she brings her over to introduce her to Mariangela.
At the couch, Mariangela is meeting all sorts of students from Royal Prep including those from her uncle's class and graduated from the school with Sofia, Amber, and James. Sofia is with some of the others as they notice Mariangela. "Even though she is only 10 years old, she seems to be used to being around older kids like us". Desmond said to Sofia as the others agree with him.
Sofia looks at Desmond as she is wondering about that one. "Well, she was in the same class level as her cousin Jennifer at Magma Institute". Sofia said to them as she is wondering why Mariangela was never around kids her age.
Zooey looks at them as she notices the various pictures of Gabriella on all sorts of adventures. "Wow, I would have loved to pick her brain about all of these pictures. She must have been on all sorts of places". Zooey said to them as she notices that some of them has ancient temples and pyramids in some of the pictures.
Sofia looks at the various adventure photos as she agrees with her. "Yeah, Gabriella must have went all over the Ever Realm to discover things. Plus from the locations of them, it looked like it was ancient places as well. I am curious if Mariangela ever knew about them". Sofia said to Zooey as she also sees a picture of Mariangela and Gabriella hugging each other deeply like a mother and daughter.
James nods as more students and teachers and parents are coming in as they are from two different schools. "Yeah plus since Mariangela and Jennifer went to a different school from the school that school while Gabriella worked at; we are bound to meet people who knew Mariangela personally". James said to Sofia as he and the others are fully aware about a certain prince.
Mariangela frowns as she sees a blonde headed boy with his parents coming in. She frowns as whispers the word Magma to Cedric's ear. Cedric looks at Mariangela as he knows what the word means as he and Mariangela leaves the immediate area to avoid the blonde headed prince. Sofia, James, Christopher, Hugo, and Amber sighs as they understand why the code word was needed. "I hope that prince will not learn about her new name though". Amber said to them as it is a major concern to say the least.
Sofia looks at Amber as she agrees with her as they plan to keep it under wraps for that very reason. "We are keeping under wraps for that reason Amber". Sofia said to Amber as she reminds her about the reasons why the name change and who would know it.
In the main foyer near the front door, Roland and Miranda looks at Prince George and his parents as they have arrived to the visitation. "You must be Miranda. I am Queen Isabelle and this is my husband King Edward, can we talk with you and King Roland in regarding about Mariangela. Plus my son George wants to speak during the service if that is possible"? Queen Isabelle asks Miranda as she is being a bit pushy and demanding about things.
Miranda looks at Queen Isabelle and King Edward as she is getting the gut feeling that Enrique will be needed as she notices some papers in Isabelle's hands. "Queen Isabelle now isn't the time for that. Plus as far as letting your son giving a speech at the service, all of the spots has been taken by other students and classmates of Jennifer's". Miranda said to Queen Isabelle as she already has 21 students and classmates already expressed about it.
Prince George frowns as he learns that there are no spots for him to speak at the service. King Edward already understands that there are other kids that want to speak at the service along with the adults. Roland looks at them as he doesn't want things to get ugly between the two women. "We can discuss things after funeral". Roland said to them as he can tell that King Edward is a good man as he has been dealing with issues with George mainly his behavior towards Mariangela.
Queen Isabelle looks at them as she can tell that Miranda has won this round. "Fine, but you two should look at these papers though". Queen Isabelle said to them as she hands them to Miranda as she signed in the guest book as George went with her.
King Edward sighs as he looks at them as he is wondering what has gotten into her especially today with handing Miranda those papers . "I do deeply apologize about my wife. She can be very pushy on things". King Edward said to them as he went with her.
Miranda sighs as the man got away from her fast enough as she look at the papers that Queen Isabelle gave her. "I really hope that King Edward keeps his wife and son away from Mariangela other wise, I will get Rosa on his case". Miranda said to Roland as they are heading into another room. Miranda looks like she is ready to chew someone out. They look at the two papers as something seems to be very off about them.
Roland frowns as one of them is an arranged marriage document and another one is Gabriella's will. 'Oh boy this could be trouble'. Roland thought to himself as Enrique walks in the room as he notices the tense expression on Miranda's face look like something seems to be amiss. "Miranda, what's wrong"? Enrique asks Miranda as he wants to get to the bottom of it.
Miranda looks at Enrique as she sighs to see him as she will know if the papers are truly real. "Dad Queen Isabelle hand me these papers". Miranda said to Enrique as she hands the documents over to him as she knows that it needs to be checked to see if they are real or fake.
Enrique looks at Miranda as he looks at the two documents as he grabs out his wand to double check on things. "Well if Queen Isabelle thinks that these two documents are real, she is for a rude awakening". Enrique said to Miranda as he checks both of them. As the documents are checked with magic, Enrique got the results of thing. "These two documents are indeed fakes. On this one, it said that Mariangela's upbringing will be turned over to Queen Isabelle of Dominca. Plus according to the real one all arrange marriages for Mariangela are nulled and void". Enrique said to Miranda as he reads the fake will and looking over the arranged marriage documents.
Miranda looks at Enrique as she notices the dates of when the fake will was made as she knows the real one was made years ago when Mariangela was a baby. "I thought as much dad. We well talk to Queen Isabelle after everything is over right now we have to head inside". Miranda said to them as she want to get back to things in the ballroom.
The three of them walk in the room as Enrique is putting the papers in his pocket as they see all sorts of people. As they are getting Mariangela, Roland and Miranda see that Mariangela is with James, Cedric, Christopher and Hugo. Garrick looks at them. "How is Mariangela adjusting to things"? Garrick asks them as he is wondering about things.
Roland looks at King Garrick as he notices his new daughter with the other kids. "Well, Mariangela is adjusting just fine, but she does have some ways to go though. She did have nightmares, but it was mostly about the horrible event that ultimately took Gabriella from her". Roland said to King Garrick as he explains more about it to him.
Miranda looks at Garrick as she had some surprises from the 10 year old girl. "Yes, Mariangela is full of surprises even to us. She even started to call Roland dad already". Miranda said to Garrick as she is pleased that change has made.
Garrick nods as he looks at them as it is a nice progress for Mariangela. "That is wonderful to hear Miranda". Garrick said to Miranda as it might take some time for her to call Miranda mom. They notice that King Magmus failed attempt to flirt with Rosa.
Roland frowns as this could be trouble as Enrique sighs as he knows Rosa all too well. "Oh boy, I will need to pull King Magmus aside from Rosa". Roland said to Miranda as the last thing he needs is drama to come up at the visitation.
Miranda looks at Roland as she pulls him back. "Hold it Roland, you don't want to come in between Rose when she is mad. She is one woman King Magmus is going to wish he hadn't messed with". Miranda said to Roland as she knows her younger sister very well.
Roland is stunned as he looks at Miranda as he turns his head back to Rosa and Magmus. He sees Rosa slaps King Magmus straight to the face. Enrique nods as he looks at Roland as he expected that to happen. "Yep, that is definitely Rosa alright". Enrique said to Roland as he knows that his daughter is a tough and independent woman.
Rosa glares at King Magmus as she is not done just yet. "If you try that again, you will be need a good doctor. I do not care if Mariangela saved you in your kingdom a couple of years ago. Plus, I don't want to hear another word out of your mouth got it". Rosa said to King Magmus as she is aware about the things that Mariangela has done in her life.
Roland is deeply surprised by it as he looks at Miranda. Garrick is equally surprised by it as well. Rosa walks away from Magmus as he looks defeated. He noticed that King Edward is keeping his wife and George on a short leash and away from Mariangela. "Well Magmus brought it on himself". Roland said to them as there are not a lot of people that can put pompous kings in their places.
Elena looks at them as she turns to Miranda as she knows what it is like to put up with a pompous king in their places. 'Oh boy if King Hector was here, she would put him in his place too'. Elena thought to herself as she can imagine would have happened if she crossed paths with him. "Rosa is a force to be reckoned with that's for sure". Elena said to Miranda as she knows not to mess with Rosa.
Miranda looks at Elena as she has a sheepish expression on her face. "Well, she always has been the tough one even as kids. She even took things after me as well. As a result, Rosa also has a mean side to any boy or girl that mad her mad. She is not one to be quiet". Miranda said to Elena as she explains more things about her to Elena. Elena nods as the visitation is going on. The other adults are checking up on things as well.
Mariangela is reunited with some of her friends from school as she notices a man coming up to her. Sofia is with her as she got to meet them for the first time. Sir Gilliam walks up to Maraingela as he notices the facial resemblances between Gabriella and her. "Your mother was amazing at flying derby. She and I were fierce rivals back in the day". Sir Gilliam said to Mariangela as he says hello to Sofia.
Mariangela looks at Sir Gilliam as she has heard things about him from her. "Mommy told me a little about you. She told me that you didn't take her seriously when you two first met for the first time". Mariangela said to Sir Gilliam as she remembers about things.
Sir Gilliam nods as he looks at Mariangela as he has a sheepish expression on his face. "Yeah, I learned that lesson the hard way when she beat me in our first race. You are a splitting image of her there is no doubt about it". Sir Gilliam said to Mariangela.
Mariangela looks at Sir Gilliam as she can tell that he is a good person. "Thanks you, you seem like a nice man, Sir Gilliam". Mariangela said to Sir Gilliam as she can see that he doesn't have any bad or evil intentions.
Sir Gilliam looks at Mariangela as he can see another derby girl with in her. "Well, I am actually the flying derby coach at Royal Prep. When Princess Sofia came along to try out for the team, I was deeply hesitant at first. Of course, she proved me wrong kind of like Gabriella did back in the day. Plus, in some ways, Prince Hugo learned the same lesson I learned when I was a kid the hard way". Sir Gilliam said to Mariangela as he remembers about that one.
Mariangela looks at Sir Gilliam as she didn't realize that Sofia proved him wrong in a way that Gabriella did back in the day. Plus Hugo even learned his lesson as well. "That's so cool, I never had time to learn to ride a flying horse or compete in derbies because all the moving that I did". Mariangela said to Sir Gilliam as she always wanted to learn how to ride.
Sir Gilliam nods as he looks at Mariangela. "Well, you have all summer to learn how to ride a flying horse. Plus, if you do go to Royal Prep in the fall, I will see you on tryout day". Sir Gilliam said to Mariangela as he is looking forward to try out day if Mariangela attends Royal Prep.
Mariangela looks at Sir Gilliam as it is something for her to think about. "That is true Sir Gilliam. I may just do that". Mariangela as she really wants to take up riding and derby racing. Sir Gilliam grins as he will look forward to that day as he went to talk to other adults.
Else where, Mariangela sighs as she greets and says hello to a lot of her grandparents, mother's, and friends from the Grand Sorcerer's council. Sofia notices as some of them are various magical beings from the Mystic Isles as well. "Wow, I never realized that Mariangela has been around magical beings from the Mystic Isles before. Plus she is handling herself well right now with them". Sofia said to James as they see their classmates from school as well as Mr. Jack". Sofia said to James as she is wondering about the classmates that she had
James looks at Sofia as he is surprised about it as well. "Yes I know Sofia. It makes me wonder what it would have been like if Mariangela was with us all along". James said to Sofia as it is he is thinking about it. 'If Mariangela was with us all along, maybe all of this wouldn't have happened this way'. James thought to himself as other things would have happened instead
Sofia nods as they see some of Mariangela's and Jennifer's classmates and school friends as they are coming towards the Enchancia royals. "Hey I am Sarah, this is Brittany, Nathan, and Robin. We went to the Magma Institute with Mariangela and Jennifer". Sarah said to them as she introduces herself to them as the others says hey.
James looks at them as it is a long awaited conversation with them. "It is nice to meet you. I am Prince James". James said to them as he notices that Robin and Nathan are identical twins. 'Mariangela wasn't kidding when she told me that she knows what twins looked like'. James thought to himself as this will be an interesting conversation.
Princess Amber nods as she looks at them. "Like wise, I am Princess Amber, and this Princess Sofia, tell us, what was Mariangela like at the Magma Institute". Amber asks them as they are wondering what was Mariangela like there.
Sofia looks at them as she is more curious about Jennifer as well. "Plus what was Jennifer like as well? I have been getting a lot of comments that I remind them of her". Sofia said to them as she has learned that Jennifer was a half sister that she never got to know about.
Nathan looks at them as he can see a lot of Jennifer in Sofia. "Well, Mariangela is a one of a kind individual. She is very kind person. It is like when one of us is feeling down about something, she will find a way to get us smile again even if it is small gesture. However, if you get her mad, she lets her anger out and then some". Nathan said to them as he knows how fiery Mariangela's temper can be.
James sighs as he got to see it up close as Amber is a bit embarrassed about it. "Oh yes, we found that out at first hand. It is like she caught us really off guard about it. Chris even tried to warn Amber about things". James said to them as Amber is not going to live that one down again.
Brittany looks at Sofia as she sighs to her. "Well Jennifer was a calm and level headed person and very nice to everyone. She was really friendly towards everyone at school. She was the kind of girl that can get along with anyone. Plus she is even civil with those that Mariangela will not tolerate at all. In a way, you are kind of like Jennifer in a lot of ways even though we just met. It took a lot to get Jennifer really mad and she would yell at them too. ". Brittany said to Sofia as she explains things a lot.
Amber looks at them as it does fit to Sofia really well. She notices a picture of Jennifer as she notice the resemblances is similar to each other. "It is just like Sofia in a lot of ways. I mean if you and Jennifer met, people would get the two of you confused for the two of you". Amber said to them as she is wondering what it would have been like if they met Jennifer as well.
Robin nods as he looks at them as he remembers when Mariangela first came into their class. "Yeah when Mariangela was first brought into our class, we were not sure about her at first especially Brittney here". Robin said to them as he is trying to tease her. Brittney gives Robin a look to knock it off. "Mariangela proved herself to us in more ways than one. Olivia already made up her mind that she will take Mariangela under her wing. It was like she was really cool even if she was a couple of years younger than us. Jennifer made sure that Mariangela stayed close to her. It was like Jennifer and Mariangela we're like sisters than cousins. Plus Mariangela can handle herself even when someone decided to pull a magical prank on her". Robin said to them as he explained to when Mariangela came into their class.
The Enchancia royals are stunned by this as they are about to learn that things will be explained about her past. "So what was the story about the Rapunzel girl about"? Amber asks them as she is curious about that nickname. "I mean when she was getting her first ever haircut, she was kind of nervous about it". Amber said to them as she and Sofia we're there to watch the transformation.
Brittany looks at them as she notices that Mariangela's hair is at an acceptable length. "Well, it was during that first week that Mariangela was in our class. From the moment Prince George saw her very long hair, he called her Rapunzel girl. It really stuck with her. Plus a couple of the guys and girls who are actually friends with Prince George decided to pull a magical prank on Mariangela by turning her hair golden blond just like Rapunzel except They poured peanut butter and glue all over her hair to ruin it to make her cry and go back to the class level she came from. Well, Maraingela didn't let them win or get her down. She got it out with her own magic. Of course, she placed a thing of stinky chocolate pudding in their seats, so when they sit down, they end up with chocolate pudding on their rear ends. We knew the she is a tough girl and got back at them when need be. They learned really that Mariangela is not to be messed with, and they got punished for that as well. Plus Olivia really chewed them out for it of course". Brittany said to them as they explained to them that Prince George started things with the nickname.
The Enchancia royal siblings are stunned as they learn about it. "Did he call her that a lot though"? Sofia asks Brittany as she is wondering when the uncomfortable things got started. Amber and James are also curious about the same thing.
Brittany nods as she looks at Sofia as she has more to tell them. "Yeah he pretty much started it and soon enough other kids in our class started to call her that just to annoy her. Then that prank happened, well meanless to say they knew it was a mistake to mess with her. However, not long after that, Prince George started to make Mariangela really uncomfortable. It is like he switched from pranking to trying to get close to her in an over friendly to romantic sense. It was really weird and strange to us. It never made sense to us, but to Mariangela, it is like she knows that Prince George is not a good person. It is like she is very in tuned to her intuition and instincts a lot better than the rest of us". Brittany said to them as she is wondering how she learned that.
Sofia looks at them as she thinks about it when Mariangela looked deeply into Chrysta's eyes. "That is really strange and odd about Prince George. I mean who goes from pranking and calling her by a teasing name to be a strange creep". Sofia said to them as she is wondering more about him as a protector.
The siblings look at each other they see the blond headed guy sitting with his parents. Plus George looks like he is trying to spot Mariangela to go talk to her but his dad is not letting him leave his seat. "Well as along as he stays in his seat and not making trouble, plus if he even thinks about missing with her, I will teach him a lesson". Amber said to them as she has a full mind to do just that.
James looks at Amber as he pulls her back from it. "Amber don't even think about it". James said to Amber as he doesn't want her to go over there. 'Even if that guy caused trouble for Mariangela in the past, he is not going to get that chance to mess with Mariangela today not if I can help it'. James thought to himself as he doesn't want Amber to make trouble.
Amber looks at James as she sighs to him. "Alright James, I cannot believe that he actually got invited though. I can understand if it got forgotten because the loss of her family was on her mind". Amber said to them as she really wants to rip a new one into Prince George.
Sofia looks at Amber as she can understand where Amber is coming from. "We just have to keep an eye on him for right now. Hopefully he will be gone and heading back to his kingdom after the funeral is done". Sofia said to Amber as she wants him head back to his kingdom.
The kids nod as the visitation is going smoothly as it can be. They went over to check on Mariangela as she is looking at the caskets of family. Sofia notice that Mariangela is not alone as Roland and Miranda are with her. Plus Chloe are with them as it is not going to be easy either as she is looking at Jennifer's body.
Sofia walks in the room as she notices Mariangela and Chloe looking at the caskets. Various people saw them as well throughout the visitation. Plus most of them are heading towards the church to get sits and other things. "Is everything ok"? Sofia asks them as she is wondering about it.
Mariangela looks at Sofia as she sees Amber, James, and Christopher with them. "Oh, I just wanted to see them one last time before they close the casket". Mariangela said to Sofia as she notices two princesses as they want to talk to her.
Princess Junie B and Princess May walk in the room as they know Lorenzo from Royal Prep. "Mariangela, I am Princess Junie B, and this is Princess May. Mr. Garcia was our teacher at Royal Prep. We lost the best teacher and he really made learning fun. He was actually her uncle". Princess Junie B said to them as she extends her condolence toward her.
Princess May nods as she looks at them as she extends a friendly smile to Mariangela. "Yeah, he explained things a lot better than the other teachers at Royal Prep. I know it will be hard to bounce back without him in the fall, but you should know that Mr. Garcia was well liked by everyone as well". Princess May said to them as she explains things to Mariangela especially.
Sofia, James, and Amber are stunned as they look at Mariangela. "I didn't realize that Mr. Garcia was your uncle. I mean he always talked about his daughter and niece at school sometimes, but I should have put two and two together". Amber said to Mariangela as she is wondering about other things.
Two guys walks in as he is one of Gabriella's students and team members from the Fairington School. "My name is Matt and this is my brother Tristan, we knew Coach Gabriella at the Fairington School. Coach Gabriella was really awesome. She was really beloved teacher at our school. Yet she was a no-nonsense coach especially in the flying derby ring". Matt said to them.
Mariangela looks at the two boys as she knows that she is a teacher and coach by day. "You knew my mommy". Mariangela said to the two guys as she is curious about it.
Tristan nods as he looks at Mariangela. "Yeah, some of us called her Coach G, others called her Ms. Garcia, and Ms. G. She was one of the best teachers at the Fairington School. She was always said always respect your flying horse and know its behavior on and off the flying derby ring". Tristan said to Mariangela.
Matt nod in agreement as he knew her as well.. "Yeah plus she always had us bonding with our flying horses even when it came to cleaning their stalls". Matt said to Mariangela as more often than not they learned to fly and race from her.
Mariangela looks at them as she knows it all too well. "Yeah that is my mommy alright. She always build a strong bond with her horse back in the day". Mariangela said to them as she is wondering when she will get her first horse and start her lesson in flying horses.
As everyone is departing for the church, Mariangela sighs as she notices that the caskets are being closed. She turns to Roland as he walks in the room the kingdom flags are being draped over them. "It is almost time to head towards the church isn't it dad". Mariangela asks Roland as she is thinking about the upcoming service.
Roland looks at Mariangela as he nods in agreement as it will be a long service. "Yes it is Mariangela. You will not be speaking at the service dear. It has been taken care of". Roland said to Mariangela as he lets her know that it is all taken care of.
Mariangela looks at Roland as she has a solemn expression on her face. "Thanks dad, I don't think I can handle giving any kind of speech especially a eulogy. In the words of Queen Miranda, I am too young to do those things or know what those words mean". Mariangela said to Roland as she has said really adult words to describe the man that killed her family during dinner the other night.
Roland looks at Mariangela as he knows that she is very smart and knows some complex words for her own good. 'She is still calling her Queen Miranda. I am wondering if she needs to get through to her like I did. Or is there another reason why she has not called her mom yet'. Roland thought to himself as they watch the caskets being carried out by wizards and sorcerers as the pallbears.
At the church sanctuary, Prince George is deeply annoyed that he and his parents are sitting in the last row all the way in the back. King Edward expected this as much while Queen Isabelle is bit annoyed about it. Plus Prince George is very much annoyed that he has not gotten a chance to even speak to Mariangela at all. He gets up from his seat as he notices that the family has not walked into the church yet as most likely they will enter from the front side door. He walks over as he went up the aisle as he wants to sit next to her.
Prince Hugo and Gabe frowns as the both of them spot Prince George coming towards them. "Where do you think you are going? The first three rows are reserved for the family". Gabe asks Prince George as he is blocking his way.
Prince George frowns as he looks at the captain of the guards. "I am going to sit with Mariangela. I am surprised that you don't know that my parents will have full custody of Mariangela after the funeral is over. So it makes better sense to let me and my parents sit in the very front row instead of the very back that some usher sat us at". Prince George said to them as he thinks that Mariangela will be living with him and his family.
Prince Hugo frowns as he doesn't buy that at all. "Yeah right, I know that you have greatly bothered Mariangela over and over again. Don't even dream about getting anywhere near her". Prince Hugo said to Prince George as he is getting the feeling that the guy is a lot worse.
Prince George frowns as he glares at Hugo as he has a devious and almost frightening expression on his face. "We will see about that. I am better looking than you would ever be". Prince George said to them as he does not realize that King Edward is behind him.
Gabe looks at Prince George as he notices that King Edward is coming towards him. "You better head back to your seat before your father drags you back to your seat". Gabe said to Prince George as he knows that he is behind Prince George.
Prince George looks at them as he turns around as he faces his dad. "Go back to the seat son, now", King Edward said to them as he took his eye off of George for two seconds and he is making trouble already.
Gabe sighs as that has been dealt with as Prince Hugo is glad that is over. "Now I understand why Mariangela doesn't like him". Prince Hugo said to Gabe as he is wondering just how much trouble he has created over the years for Mariangela.
Gabe agrees as he has a bad feeling about Prince George as well. "Me too, I got a bad feeling that boy is not to be trusted as well". Gabe said to Prince Hugo as the service is about to start.
The two of them finds their seats as Mariangela, Roland, Miranda, Sofia, Amber, James, Christopher, Roland the first, Kimberly, Rosa, Alex, Miranda Louise, Tilly, and Sir Bartleby are in a room together as everyone else is in the sanctuary. Mariangela sighs as she drinks some water and she has some tissues with her to use. Cedric is also with them as they are heading towards the sanctuary as everyone is sitting in their seats. Chloe, Cedric, Mariangela, Roland, Miranda, Sofia, James, Amber, and Christopher are sitting in the very front row while Miranda's and Roland's side of the family are in the second and third row. Plus there are 42 speakers in the choir area of various ages including Francisco, Enrique, Chloe, and Olivia.
A priest went to the podium as he makes his opening statements . "It is not easy to say good bye to a family that killed mercilessly. Each member of the Garcia family were a force to be reckoned with in their own right. Whether it was a wand or tambourita in their hands or riding on a flying horse, they have left an impact on every walk of life whether it is was a classmate, student, coworker, or a colleague. Yet it is a miracle that young Mariangela is still with us still to carry on the force to be reckoned with that the rest of her family was". The priest said to the crowd as the service gets started.
Chloe got up first as she has prepared something to talk about especially Jennifer and Lorenzo. "They say that family is not just about having the same blood. Family is about having people who care about you. I learned that the easy and hard way in life when I first saw Jennifer as a baby. I saw how much Lorenzo deeply cared about her even though he was not her father at birth. Yet, he wanted to the right thing by bringing Jennifer back to my family, but my own parents didn't want her because of the circumstances of her birth and what her birth mom did. I knew back then that my parents didn't show the same unconditional love and support to Jennifer like Lorenzo had even though he was not a married man. He showed deeply selfless love towards Jennifer. Yet he, his sister Gabriella, and their parents Fernando and Esmeralda Garcia shown me what real unconditional love looked like. As I saw various pictures of Jennifer growing up, I saw my sister Eliza in her every year. In my letters to Jennifer, I always hold her something about Eliza that she would get a picture of who she was. When I got see Jennifer and the rest of the family, it felt like I have always known her forever, and yet I also gotten to know Mariangela as well. Yet I had to carry my knowledge of Jennifer and the Garcia family as a secret because of my own parents who wanted nothing to do with Jennifer and expected me to follow their lead. It refused to do it because I knew what the unconditional love looked like in a family like the Garcia's. I made my own path in life and I will continue It was painful to pull me away from them one last time. Honoring their memories will not be easy, and nothing will take that pain away. Remembering who they were shall live within each one of us that knew them. Yet at the same time, someone else pulled the family from me and Mariangela from them. Each one of us who are here today and others who can't be here in the entire Ever Realm will not stand for the violent criminal acts that took place on the nights that Fernando, Esmeralda, Lorenzo, Jennifer, and Gabriella Garcia were ruthlessly killed whether it was in kingdom of Novanima or in that cave in Enchancia". Chloe said to them as she gives the crowd a powerful eulogy as she went to sit down.
Francisco went up next as he looks at the crowd as he has a speech as well. "They say that opposites attract, and that is deeply true between Fernando and Esmeralda. It was clearly evident even at first glance. Fernando was calm and very patient with everyone while Esmeralda was very colorful and a character. I remember when I was a kid, I saw Esmeralda climbing up the trees in the jungles of Avalor always getting ingredients for her potions. Her potions were used often on pranks. Often times, her pranks were usually on Fernando. Meanless to say, Fernando took the prank like a champ and never bothered him. However when someone messed with Esmeralda, Fernando always defended her and then some. Even when they knew each other as kids, there was that spark of love between them. Lusia and I knew that they were meant for each other. That was true when they started their family really young. Despite others wanted to break them apart, they still stuck together. Fernando brought patients and calm into her while Esmeralda brought colorful personality into him. They brought out the best in each other. They knew how to defend Avalor and help to those in need even though they were from the high class society. Fernando always said it is better to rich on the inside than always flaunting it to other. Even when they started their own family, none of us knew what would become of their family. At the same time, none of us here in Avalor would become of the kingdom itself. Even time has gone by, I have always thought about them and when they would come back to Avalor. However I never thought it would in a way like this. I look at Mariangela sitting with King Roland Queen Miranda, and I know that she is the only Garcia left. The spirits of the Garcia family is within her. It is that force to be reckoned with that will still continue". Francisco said to the crowd as he went to sit down.
Enrique went up next as he has a eulogy of his own. "The Garcia family was a great family. Despite the tragedy that they had gone through when they lost Angelo, they knew how to stick together and remained a close knit family. Fernando was an honorable individual whose heart with filled with gold. He had always had valuable insight with the Grand Sorcerer's Council. He always assisted those trying struggling to understand the ways of the tambourita. It brought him great joy when a young wizard started to use a tambourita. It was a way to bring tradition to his home kingdom roots even when it was controlled by a heinous sorceress. Esmeralda was the same way with helping those in need. I have watched Lorenzo and Gabriella grow up into fine individuals who respect the wand and the tambourita. There was no doubt that they both took things after their parents. Lorenzo took things after Fernando being patient and calm. I remember the shocked expression on Fernando's and Esmeralda's faces when Gabriella got on a flying horse by herself and riding without any prior lessons before. Before they knew it, Gabriella has gotten into flying derby and racing. Whenever she was on her horse, it is like she was at one with the flying horse. However, when I found out the news about them and their passing, it was going to be hard and difficult no matter how you look at it". Enrique said to them as his his eulogy speech is done.
As various other adults including teachers, headmaster, Atticus gave various eulogy speeches, Mariangela has tears down her face as Roland and Chloe are comforting her. The students and classmates went next as well including Princess Junie B. Olivia went last as she looks at the crowd. "When my cousins and I got the news about Jennifer, it came out in the deepest and darkest of blue. At first, I thought it was a bad joke or a bad dream. When it was, it broke all of our hearts because we just saw her including Mariangela at school on the last day. Jennifer was one of the sweetest people you would ever come across. She knew how to be civil to those that Mariangela wouldn't be tolerating to. We all said that Jennifer was a saint for putting up nonsense whenever it came up even with people that Mariangela did not tolerate at all. However, it will not be the same again with out her and her family in our lives. At the same time, I look over at Mariangela sitting with Uncle Roland and Aunt Miranda. It felt like Jennifer is telling me that she will be ok. Plus I have a feeling that they will not replace the people that she has lost in the cruelest way that is unimaginable. In reality, they are those that will step up to be the new family that Mariangela does deserve. Her first family will always be watching over her in the sky above while her new family will side and guide her especially in ways that she will have to get use to". Olivia said to the crowd as her speech is done. As the crowd singing a couple of songs and a pray, the two hour-long funeral service is over.
Everyone went to the fellowship hall while Mariangela, Chloe, Roland, Miranda, Sofia, Amber, James, Cedric, Christopher. Roland the first, Kimberly, Enrique, and Miranda's siblings and cousins and Elena are the cemetery just outside of the church. There are four burials that needs to be done and Roland and Miranda has made a special head stone to be placed in Enchancia for a later date.
The families notice a group of wizards, sorcerers, and magical beings coming down as they are carrying the caskets. Atticus is standing at a table where Fernando's tambourita, Esmeralda's tambourita, Lorenzo's tambourita, Gabriella's tambourita and wand, and Jennifer's wand are at. Atticus cast a memorialize spell on the items to make them unusable. The family watches as four Avalor flags and one Norberg flag are being folded as a drummer is doing a drum roll tap. Atticus said to the small crowd of people as things are getting started for the special burial and taps.
As the flags and items are placed in a magical shadow box, a trumpeter is starting to play taps, the other wizards and sorcerers are doing the magical 21 salute. A sorcerer went up to Chloe as he hands her the shadow boxes that has Lorenzo's tambourita and flag of Avalor and the wand and flag of Norberg to her. A wizard and a sorcerer went up to Mariangela as they present her the three shadow boxes that had Esmeralda's, Fernando's and Gabriella's tambouritas and Avalor flags in them.
Mariangela looks at them as tears are falling down her face as she receives them. Chloe also has tears dripping down her face. " May those who has been departed from this world to continue to watch over surviving family members and those who will walk aside along with them in this difficult time and for the years ahead indeed". Mariangela and Chloe said to them as the special taps is over.
As the special taps is over, Mariangela is emotionally drained from the entire day. They went back inside of the church. Roland and Miranda notice Queen Isabelle and King Edward. "Dad, mom, will you keep an eye on the kids and make sure that Mariangela eats something while Miranda, Enrique and I have something that needs to be taken care of". Roland said to them as he needs to get this done.
Roland the first looks at Roland as he is getting the feeling that something needs to be done. "Of course", Roland the first said to them as they and the kids went up to the fellowship hall.
The family split up as they went to the fellowship hall while Roland, Miranda, and Enrique went to a conference like room. Miranda looks at them as she and Enrique are pulling out two wills that was made. "Let me ask you something Queen Isabelle, when and where you got this particular will that you brought with you along with the arranged marriage proposal for your son and Mariangela". Miranda asks Queen Isabelle as she shows her the very will that she brought to her.
Queen Isabelle looks at Miranda as she is wondering why the questioning about the will and the arranged marriage. "That is simple Queen Miranda ever since Mariangela was placed in my son class. Granted those two got off the wrong foot when George foolishly pranked my soon to be daughter in law and daughter". Queen Isabelle said to Miranda as she still thinks that Mariangela will be going with them back to Novanima.
Miranda looks at Queen Isabelle as this woman needs a reality check and a rude awakening. "Well, it seems that the will and the arranged marriage papers that you brought are completely faked". Miranda said to Queen Isabelle as she places the true real one in front of King Edward.
King Edward looks at the real one as he notices various things. "According to this one that all arranged marriages for Mariangela will be turned down by the custodial guardian Miranda Martinez Bathalazar. Plus the custodial guardianship of Mariangela Garcia goes to Miranda Martinez Bathalazar. In additions all arrange marriages for Mariangela will be nulled and void by the custodial guardian Miranda Martinex Bathalar. Plus the date of when this will was made 10 years and fifth months ago". King Edward said to them as he realizes that the documents that Isabelle brought are truly fake.
Isabelle frowns as she looks at the real one as she is in shock by this. All of the color drained from her face as she hears all of that. She looks at the real ones as it is written in black and white. "What, Renee assured me that the will that I had is the real one". Isabelle said to them as she doesn't realize that there is a real one already made and kept hidden all this time.
Miranda looks at Queen Isabelle as she is getting the feeling that the woman is not all bad just deeply misguided by a bad person. "That is what you get for having a lie and a fake around with you especially as a friend". Miranda said to Queen Isabelle as she realizes that she knew Gabriella as a class parent.
Isabelle frowns as she is furious that she didn't realize that Gabriella had a real will made out and kept hidden and gotten to the Enchancia Royals. "Gabriella always knew that Mariangela never liked my son. I always tried to get her to see sense on the arranged marriage, but she wouldn't budge on it. She always said true love is not earn by making those uncomfortable. Yet, we had our disagreements, but she was a wonderful person. All of the other parents in our kid's class were envious on having a very smart kid like Mariangela especially me. Of course, Renee told me that it would be worth it to have Mariangela as a daughter in law once she lightened up with things with George". Isabelle said to them as she is furious about the arrange marriage being a total fake.
Miranda frowns as she looks at Isabelle as she had enough of her. "As of right now, that arranges marriage is off. I am not going to force my new daughter through that especially to a boy that creeps her out". Miranda said to them as she is fighting for Mariangela just like Gabriella has. Roland looks at Miranda as it is a right step in the right direction.
Edward nods as he looks at Miranda as he agrees. "I agree with you Queen Miranda. I am getting tired of constant notices about Prince George's behavior at school especially towards Mariangela. I honestly don't know where he gotten that kind of inappropriate flirting talk from. Mariangela will be a lovely daughter in law but for someone else. I have accepted that it and I do believe it is high time that Isabelle learned that". Edward said to them as he looks at Queen Isabelle as he is trying to get through to her about it.
Roland frowns as he looks at Isabelle as he has a question that has been on his mind. "Renee is the one that gave you the fake papers wasn't she". Roland said to Isabelle as he is getting the feeling that she was the one that did it.
Queen Isabelle looks at them as she nods to them. "Yes it was. It is like she knew that Mariangela was in my son's class before I did. I never questioned on how it could be though". Isabelle said to them as she is wondering how that is possible.
Miranda frowns as she realizes what her dad told her and Roland earlier back at the Enchancia Castle. "That witch, she has been spying on me and Mariangela for years with that viewing crystal ball. It would not surprise me if she even spied on Gabriella as well. Gabriella made the decision to place Mariangela for adoption when was a baby to keep her safe from Javier and Renee. She knew what was best for her back then and even now. She must have issues with Renee even when Mariangela was in school. I take it that you will cut ties with Renee". Miranda said to Isabelle as she gives her a look to do that.
Isabelle looks at them as she realizes that Renee is a person that needs to have ties cut off. "I will give you my word that I will cut all ties with Renee. I hope that you and Roland will raise Mariangela well. Plus if has been spying on you, she would probably see this". Isabelle said to them as she grabs the fake documents as she tears them apart in front of them. Edward nod as it is a right step from Isabelle to do on things.
Miranda is stunned by Isabelle's move as it is very cathartic on her part. "Yes well, Mariangela will not be returning to the Magma Institute where George will be getting to her again. Plus she has made it clear on that". Miranda said to them as she tells them that Mariangela will not be back at that school
Queen Isabelle and King Edward understands The adults nod as the talk is over. Isabelle tears up the fake will and the fake arrange marriage papers as she takes it with her. They get their son and leave the church.
Miranda sighs as they return to the main fellowship hall to rejoin with the kids. Mariangela is eating some food as Kimberly is dealing with the guest and shaking hands with them. Plus Chloe is taking a break as well at Kimberly's insistence. Sofia looks at them as she notices that Miranda is more at ease now before the service got started. Plus Gabe filled Roland in about how Prince George tried to sit in the front row before the service got started. "Mom is everything ok now"? Sofia asks Miranda.
Miranda looks at Sofia as she is coming towards her. "Yes Sofia, everything is ok now. We had someone to deal with". Miranda said to Sofia as it is done out of the way. She turns to Roland as she notices how she is taking care of things. "Well Roland for a Grandmother she sure know how to deal with guests". Miranda said to Roland as she is making sure that things are going smoothly.
Roland nods as he sees the other guest as they are talking to Mariangela and Chloe and expressing condolsences to them. "That is true. Plus, tomorrow, we will start our journey back to Enchancia and visiting the Avalor Royal Palace for the night as well". Roland said to Miranda as he tells her that the journey back to Enchancia will start tomorrow. Miranda agrees as they get something to eat while Sofia went to talk to her other friends.
Junie B is carrying a book as she went over to sit with Mariangela. "Mariangela, I found a book that Mr. Lorenzo left at Royal Prep on the last day of school, and you should look inside it. I think Mr. Lorenzo want you to have it". Junie B said to Mariangela as she present her with the book.
Mariangela looks at Junie B as she looks at the book. There are various entries about her, Jennifer, and Sofia. "He wrote about me, Jennifer, and Sofia. Why did my Uncle Lorenzo wrote about all three of us"? Mariangela asks Junie B as she is deeply curious about it.
Junie B looks at Mariangela as she is not sure about it. "It beats me. Plus the journal is thick like he wrote more things in it. Can you read some of it to me please"? Junie B asks Mariangela as she is wondering what Lorenzo wrote into it the book itself.
Mariangela looks at Junie B as she reads to her about the journal. "Today is the open try out for the Royal Prep Flying Derby. I decided to watch the try out for myself to see who could give a run for Gabriella's money someday. As I watched Princess Sofia take to the sky on her flying horse, it reminded me so much when Gabriella flew on Skydancer. It pained me so deeply that Mariangela couldn't learn how to ride a flying horse all because of the moving we did". Mariangela said to Junie B as she has a light smile on her face.
Junie B looks at Mariangela as it sounds Lorenzo very much. "That is so cool Mariangela". Junie B said to Mariangela as she is deeply curious about the other entries in the journal itself.
Mariangela nods as she looks at Junie B. "It seems that my uncle written about all of the great things about Sofia did while at Royal Prep. It sounds like he wanted to tell me and Jennifer more about Sofia even though we never met her ". Mariangela said to Junie B as she is wondering why that is as she has more pages to read. "Thanks Princess Junie B, I will take this with me". Mariangela said to Princess Junie B as she has a full mind to read it for herself as she wants to learn more about it.
Princess Junie B nods as she looks at Mariangela as it has brought some peace to her. "Your welcome, plus perhaps I will learn your new name though". Princess Junie B said to Mariangela as she knows that she will be going by a new name soon.
Mariangela nods as she looks at Princess Junie B as the guest has started to leave the church. "Sure, plus I will make sure you are invited to my welcome ball". Mariangela said to Princess Junie B as she personally invites her to the welcome ball.
Princess Junie B smiles as she is looking forward to get the invitation to the event. "I can't wait, and I am looking forward to the new announcement of your name". Princess Junie B said to Mariangela as she gets up. Mariangela nods as she watches the girl leaving with her parents. Princess Junie B nods as she left with her parents. Mariangela closes the journal as she has a full mind to read it later. As she carries it with her, she is wondering what more things that Uncle Lorenzo wrote. 'Judging by the journal, Uncle Lorenzo wrote a lot about Sofia and me. However why do I get the feeling that Uncle Lorenzo wrote about other things as well'. Mariangela thought to herself as she is planning to read it very privately.
Sofia looks at Mariangela as she went to check on her. "Mariangela is everything alright"? Sofia asks Mariangela as she just want to be a good sister.
Mariangela looks at Sofia as she nods to her. "I am fine Sofia. Princess Junie B gave me my uncle's journal". Mariangela said to Sofia as she wants to read it first before showing it to her. Sofia nods as the church gets cleaned up. As the royal family leaves the church, they head back to the mansion. Mariangela looks back on things as tomorrow will start a brand new life for her. 'Mommy, will you give me a sign to call Queen Miranda mom'? Mariangela thought to herself as she is clutching the journal as she doesn't want it to be taken away by Miranda.
Back at the mansion, Enrique looks at them as he went to grab the wills from the box. Enrique looks at his grown children. "Kids, I need to talk to Miranda, Mariangela, Princess Elena, Chloe, and Cedric for while please". Enrique said to them as it comes another dread conversation.
The five of them look at each other as they went to the other room. Enrique sighs as he looks at them. "When Fernando named me executor of his and Esmeralda's will, I pretty much knew that I had to do this for their sake". Enrique said to them as he grabs a letter as he hands it to Elena. "Princess Elena, Fernando left for you this letter to read". Enrique said to Elena as he wants to get this done first.
Elena is stunned as she looks at Enrique as she is surprised that she got something. "He left something to me". Elena said to them as the letter is in her hands. Mariangela is deeply curious about the contents of the letter.
"Dear Princess Elena,
If you have found out about my passing after you have gotten freed from the amulets, it is too late for me to tell you that it was not an ordinary accident that there are two Amulets of Avalor. Before my family and I left Avalor, Quinta Mol and I gotten a vision and a prophecy that foretold about the two amulets and you". Elena said to them as they are deeply surprised by the statements.
As conflicted one of Avalor wrapped in manipulation plans to bring the wicked one of the Northern Islands to the Kingdom
Another jewel will be found by the eldest princess before the wicked one of the Northern Islands come
As the spell is launched against the eldest princess
The original amulet is not enough to protect the eldest Princess of Avalor
The hidden second jewel will become the second amulet of Avalor
Thus the amulets shall act like sisters with identical abilities and powers
As the amulets travel from one kingdom to another to find the right ones to free the eldest princess of Avalor
The evil wicked one will still reign in Avalor still and the conflicted one is still trapped in manipulation
As the years go by, as one amulet is still with a royal princess the other amulet gets lost but returned by a young girl whose destiny is uncertain to the younger royal princess in the kingdom of love
As both amulets vanish again for new hiding place in the enchanted kingdom, it waits for the unlikely one to free the eldest princess by the same level of kindness of the young girl with the uncertain future.
As time goes on again, first amulet glows, it shines to girl from the village in the same enchanted kingdom becomes princess, but the second amulet shall be dormant as the second girl has not arrived.
When the Mother Heroine marries the Enchancia King
As the first girl learn to be royal from the Resilient Heart, the Knightly Shield, and the Enchancia King
She become friends with the Bond of Hope and the Valiant Steward
She also become the Kindness of Love
As the time comes to free the Avalor princess
The first amulet shall turn blue and a tale is revealed while the second amulet starts to awaken and starting to glow
As the first princess frees the eldest princess in Avalor, the second amulet also releases her in the same enchanted kingdom under everyone's noses included the conflicted one
The royal family of heroes must unite with the trapped people of Avalor and the Eldest Princess of Avalor
The wand of the wicked one shall by tossed by a conflicted one of Avalor to the eldest princess of Avalor
To put an end to the wicked one of the northern islands reign".
As another year passes, the traitorous malvego shall strike on the family and to create his quest to gain the Book of Prophecy and Destiny.
As the scream from the youngest one is made, the light of the second amulet and the spell from Bond of Hope stops the traitorous malvego and his quest to gain the book fails.
This any attempt to use a forbidden item again shall fail
As the traitorous malvego goes back to the shadows to a place where all evil exist
The Bond of Hope shall be the only one that will locate the youngest one who become the Bond of Kindness, the Guardian Brother, and the body of the fallen angel's name.
Sincerely
Fernando Garcia the Noble Duke
Duke of Avalor
PS
Elena, I want you to find trust worthy people to maintain the mansion until Mariangela turns 21 years old. The mansion is rightfully hers".
Elena is stunned as she never knew this.
Elena is stunned as she has no idea that her finding another jewel was foretold. "I never realized that the two amulets were foretold in a prophecy like this. I did found it, but never thought it would be like that ". Elena said to them as she has a lot to process.
Mariangela looks at them as she remembers about something that took place when she was younger. "It all makes sense to me now". Mariangela said to them as she realizes that her actions years ago already took place.
The adults look at Mariangela as they are a bit confused. "What make sense to you"? Miranda asks Mariangela as she is wondering about that as the journal is still in her hands.
Mariangela looks at them as she has to explain it to them. "When I was 6 years old, my first family was living in the Kingdom of Amora at that time. I returned a really nice necklace to Princess Athena all by myself. I never realized that it was a special amulet let alone having a princess inside of it. Shortly after that happened, my first family moved to the kingdom of Florena". Mariangela said to them as she thinks back on it
The adults are stunned as they learn that she did that all by herself. "Mariangela, that is too dangerous but at the same time, you did the right thing". Miranda said to Mariangela as she is kind of like Sofia.
Cedric is stunned as he never knew that there was actually two of them. "I always read that that there was a rumor about being two amulets of Avalor, but I never realized that was actually true. Plus it makes me wonder if someone or something found out that to be true and didn't tell me". Cedric said to them as he has a lot to process.
Roland reads about the prophecy again. "Everything else starting to make sense because Sofia is the one that the amulet went to and we went to Avalor and defeated Shuriki. What I don't understand is who the conflicted one of Avalor who is manipulated is"? Roland asks them as he is wondering about that particular person.
Elena looked at them as she has a bad feeling about him. "I have a feeling that it is actually Estaben. How he got manipulated is beyond me". Elena said to them as she is doesn't know why he did what he did when he and Victor brought Shuriki to Avalor. "I rather not talk about him right now". Elena said to them as she is processing the news that Estaben is mentioned in the prophecy.
Enrique looks at them as he turns to them as he grabs Gabriella's will next as there is something in it specifically for Cedric. "Does Mariangela still have her mother's necklace"? Enrique asks them as it is going to a particular person.
Mariangela looks them as grabs it from her little bag. "You mean this necklace Grandfather Enrique. I mean mommy wore it all the time". Mariangela said to Enrique as she hands it to him. Everyone in the room is stunned as it is the very necklace.
Enrique looks at Gabriella's will as he pulls out a picture of the very item. "Yes it is Mariangela. The truth is that Gabriella specifically willed this necklace to you Cedric". Enrique said to them as he reads a passage in Gabriella's will about it. This particular necklace goes to Cedric. It is called the I see you see. The wearer can select one person to see what is going on if and when there is trouble and a letter for him explaining the reason". Enrique said to them as Cedric has been named to get something.
Cedric is stunned as he learns that he has been named to get something that once belonged to Gabriella. He receives the letter as he is reading it. He is stunned as it explains so much. " I honestly don't know what to say. I need some air". Cedric said to them as he leaves the room as this is a bit much. Mariangela is stunned as she doesn't want to hear more of this and went to check on Cedric. She is carrying the journal with her. Elena also went to check on Cedric as well.
Enrique nods as he looks at Roland, Miranda, and Chloe in the room. "Chloe, you have been named in Lorenzo's will. You and Mariangela will need to look through his things together to pick out the things that belonged to him. Plus you and Mariangela will receive his assets as well". Enrique said to Chloe as he hands her a letter to her.
As Chloe reads the letter, she is in shock that Lorenzo deeply cared about her like a second daughter. "Wow, I never realize things. I am going to need time to process all of this". Chloe said to Enrique as she leaves the room as the parents are the only two people left in the room.
Enrique nods as he looks at Roland and Miranda as there are other things that needs to be discussed with them. "According to Esmeralda's, Fernando's, and Gabriella's will, they did want it split everything between Mariangela and Jennifer. However due to Jennifer's passing, it essentially everything goes to Mariangela. Their money, assets, worldly possessions and such. This mansion will go to Mariangela on her 21st birthday". Enrique said to Roland and Miranda as he explains to them as he has other documents.
Miranda is stunned as Mariangela is going to be very rich. "She is a will be a rich young lady when she grown up". Miranda said to Enrique as she knows that her future will be more secured.
Enrique nods as he looks at Roland as he hands him various documents about Mariangela's money from Gabriella, Fernando, and Esmeralda. "However with the money and assets from Lorenzo, it will need to be split evenly between Mariangela and Chloe". Enrique said to Roland as he hands him that information to him as well.
Roland looks at Enrique as there is going to be a lot to talk about with them on a later date. "I will let Mariangela and Chloe Know when the time is right seperately". Roland said to Enrique as Miranda agrees with him.
Enrique looks at them as everything seems to be in order with the wills. "Of course, we need to check on the kids. Things has been kind of quiet". Enrique said to them as he wants to make sure that they are not making any kind of trouble. As the three of them leaves the room, Miranda learns from Elena that Mariangela checked on Cedric and then went back to her room to take a well deserved nap as the funeral got her exhausted. However, the family has no idea what is even happening back at the Enchancia castle.
Back in Enchancia, black and tan dog is running as it is gaining some sort of scent that it has picked up on. As it finds herself at a castle, the strange scent is getting stronger as she is wondering where it is. The other animal friends spot the strange dog on the castle grounds. "Umm what's a dog doing here? The only dog we know is Rex". Mia asks them as she is curious why it came here for.
Robin looks at Mia as she is not sure. "I don't know but that dog looks like it is on the scent for something". Robin said to them as she is wondering if the dog is a bad dog.
Clover is with them as he sees the dog trying to get some sort of direction of the scent. As they see it going in a new direction, they have a full mind to follow the dog. "Well, let's go see what's going on". Clover said to them as they are following it. Clover hops along as he is catching up to the dog. "Hey dog, who are you looking for anyways"? Clover asks the dog as he doesn't know its name let alone its purpose doing here.
The dog looks at Clover as she doesn't like the fact that he called her that. "The name is Jojo. I am picking up a scent of a rat that shouldn't be here bunny". The dog named Jojo said to Clover as she is taking off again.
Clover slightly frowns as he doesn't like being called a bunny. "Jojo huh, my name is Clover. Please waited up you will awake Rex". Clover said to Jojo as he hops after Jojo.
Robin and Mia follow them as they are curious on where Jojo is going. Jojo is running as she is heading towards the Royal Obstacle Course as she knows that the rat is here. "Claudina are you ready". Jojo said to her friend as she knows that she is on her nose.
"Ready Jojo", a magical flea named Claudina said to Jojo as she sees the rat. The magical flea is much bigger than a normal flea as the other animals are stunned as a dog and a flea know each other let along being friends.
Clover, Mia, and Robin are confused by things. "Then go for it". Jojo said to Claudina. The magical flea jumps as it lands on a particular rat.
Twitch frowns as something is on him. "What the, get this thing of me", Twitch said as it is jumping around as it tries to scratch itself. However, it is not sure what got on him. Plus he is about to be pounced.
Clover, Mia, and Robin are stunned that Twitch is still here. They are dumb founded as Jojo is trying to pounce on the rat. "Umm forgive me if I am wrong here, but I thought Cedric caught Twitch and that raven". Mia said to them as they are wondering what is going on exactly.
Rex looks at them as he is just as confused about it. "I thought so too Mia, but something really stinks and it is not me". Rex said to them as Jojo is trying to pin down Twitch as the two of them are going at it.
Robin is stunned by this as she looks at Jojo trying to pounce on Twitch. "I don't know but Jojo is like a cheetah ready to pounce". Clover said to them as they are catching up with Jojo and Twitch as they are wondering how they can help her.
Twitch is stunned as Jojo is still on its tail as he is running and trying to get the magical flea off of him. "How did you know that I was even on the castle grounds? Those protectors have the copy of myself and a copy of Wormwood there". Twitch asks Jojo as he is trying to get away from her. However, he opened his big mouth about it.
Jojo frowns as she glares at Twitch as she has a smirk on her face. "Well newsflash, you gave it away that someone has a copy of yourself and of Wormwood. Now, they know it too as well, so you are going down". Jojo said to twitch The animal friends are stunned Robin is stunned as she does not realize that there was a copy of them.
The animal friends are stunned as they heard that one correctly. "What, there was a copy of him and Wormwood that are locked up at the Isle of Protectors all this time". Robin said to them as they realize that everyone got duped including Cedric who caught them.
Twitch is trying to getting away as Jojo is still on its tail. It is trying to shake off Claudina off of him. "What is this on me"? Twitch asks as it is getting annoyed about it.
Jojo frowns as the rat is talking about her friend like that. "I think that is about as far you will be going". Jojo said to Twitch as she jumps as she pounces on twitch down with her paws. "That's my friend and partner that you are talking about you rat". Jojo said to Twitch as she caught him.
The animal friends are glad as they rush over to Jojo as they see that Twitch is under Jojo's paws. They even see that Jojo is laying down in a special guard position. "That is so cool Jojo. I mean you were on its tail the whole time". Clover said to Jojo as he is making smack talk on Twitch as he doesn't realize that Claudina went back to Jojo's nose as she looks at all of them.
Rex looks at Jojo as they are wondering why she is in that position instead of taking it away. "Umm Jojo, will you please take the rat away"? Rex asks Jojo as they are wondering why she is not leaving with the rat in tow with her.
The animal friends are still a bit confused about it as Jojo looks at Rex as she knows that they don't know what she is. "Actually I need to wait until the proper beings to take this rat away". Jojo said to them as she is following special protocol that they do not understand just yet.
The animal friends are still confused as they don't know why about it. "Well this rat needs to be locked away until the family is back at the castle". Rex said to Jojo as he knows that the family is still out of the kingdom right now.
Jojo looks at Rex as she has Twitch pinned really well at the moment. "If you expect me to break protocol, you really don't know things". Jojo said to Rex as she is dismayed that he expects her to take Twitch away.
Rex looks at Jojo as he is really baffled by it like he is being shown up by the new dog. The animal friends are really confused as they are about to find out that Jojo is a very unique animal. "Protocol, what is that supposed to mean". Rex said to Jojo as he doesn't like the fact that she is being a bit snoddy towards him.
Clover looks at them as an argument is about to break out between them. "Calm down you two, just let me try something", Clover said to them as he calls upon someone. "Yo Skylar, we need you right quick friend". Clover said to Skylar as he knows who to contact.
Skylar arrives at the scene as he is wondering what's going on. "Hey Clover what's going on and why is she has Twitch pinned down like that? I thought that Twitch has been locked up at the tower in the Mystic Isles"? Skylar asks Clover as he is kind of confused about it.
Clover looks at Skylar as said Skylar this is the Real Twitch the one you have is a Copy" we Twitch out of her Quickly Please tell one of these Wing thing" i saw last time to take him away"
Skylar is stunned as he didn't realize this. "Oh my, I will go get Chrysta and be back as soon as I can". Skylar said to Clover.
Clover said thank you"
"Your welcome", Skylar takes off flying into the sky.
Jojo said that was fast Thinking Clover"
Clover looks at Jojo as he has a sheepish expression on his face. "Yeah well my princess knows the protectors of the Mystic Isles. But I have a question though why did you didn't take it away and stand guard like that until someone proper take it away"? Clover asks Jojo as he is wondering why that is.
Jojo looks at Clover as the other animal friends are curious about it. "Well, I am a magical animal specialist. It is like an animal helper but with more advanced training. A magic animal specialist does a lot more than the assisting wizards and sorcerers, and sorceresses. We can assist other magical and non-magical individuals as well". Jojo said to Clover as she explains more about it to them and why she couldn't take Twitch off by herself. Rex realizes that Jojo is a very unique dog.
Clover looks at Jojo as he never heard of that before like it has made him silent for once. "Wow, you really made Clover quiet for once and that rarely happens". Mia said to Jojo as the others nod in agreement.
Jojo nods as she looks at Clover. "Yes well, I picked up this rat's scene the moment I got the kingdom about a few days ago. I never imagined it would get me here to the royal castle". jojo said to them as she explains to them how long she has been in Enchancia for.
Mia looks at Jojo as she thinks about the flea. "So who is Claudina that you were saying about"? Mia asks Jojo as they have no idea what Claudina is let alone where she is on Jojo.
Jojo looks at Mia as the others are just as curious about it. "Oh Claudina, she is actually my partner and life time friend. She is a magical flea, and we actually have a symbolic relationship. She eats the regular non magical fleas on me and gets a warm home while I provide protection from other creatures that want to eat her". Jojo said to them as she explains to them about Claudina. The other animal friends are stunned as they see Claudina on Jojo's nose as they say hello.
Skylar and Chrysta arrives as she has a cage as she is stunned to see it for herself. "Well, I had to see it for myself, and whoa that is something you don't see everyday". Chrysta said to them as she sees a dog laying on the ground with her two front paws with Twitch pinned in it.
Clover looks at Chrysta as he has never seen anything like that before. "It was her Chrysta. I am telling you she came out of no where". Clover said to Chrysta as the other animal friends agreed with him. He is pointing to Jojo as she has Twitch pinned.
Chrysta looks at Jojo as she is equally surprised as a dog has caught her off guard. "This is the second time that something has caught me off guard like that. I am not sure if I like that or not". Chrysta said to them as she went to Jojo's eye level. "Thank you Jojo", Chrysta said to Jojo as she pets her.
Jojo nods as she looks at Chrysta as she lets the fairy grab the rat and place him in a cage. "Your welcome, so who is this princess that Clover mentioned about "? Jojo asks them as she has never met a princess before.
Clover looks at Jojo as he sighs as he never introduced himself to her in the midst of the chase. "Plus Princess Sofia needs to be notified about this right away". Clover said to them as Sofia needs to be aware about the real Twitch. Chrysta looks at them as Sofia needs to be notified about this.
Chrysta looks at them as Sofia does need to be informed about what happened. "Yes, I will call Sofia later". Chrysta said to them as this is very important.
Clover nods as he looks at Chrysta. "SO Cedric had no idea that he caught the copy Wormwood and Twitch in that battle on the graduation day. If there is a copy of Twitch and Wormwood, and the real Twitch is caught again then where is the real wormwood"? Clover asks Chrysta.
Chrysta frowns as she is getting a bad feeling about Wormwood. "The real Wormwood must still be out there then. We have to check if the Wormwood in the Mystic Isles is truly a copy or not". Chrysta said to Clover as she is getting the feeling that Cedric did get duped and tricked.
Clover nods as he looks at Chrysta as he and the other animals are getting a bad feeling that the real Wormwood is somewhere out there. "Yeah but how did that bird brain pull that off especially getting the hold of a copy spell"? Clover asks them as they have more unanswered questions about it.
Chrysta looks at Clover as it is a good question. "It is a very good question Clover. Plus we have more unanswered questions right now. What happened here today clearly shows that something is definitely up with things". Chrysta said to them as she has a bad feeling about it.
Jojo looks at them as she is thinking about it. "It could have been a new villain that places a copy spell in Wormwood, and Wormwood could have used it on Twitch". Jojo said to Chrysta as she wondering that is what could have happened.
Chrysta looks at them as they could be on to something. "It could be. I need to get Twitch back to the Mystic Isles. Either way, Cedric is not going to like this at all. Jojo, will you come with me to the Mystic Isles". Chrysta ask Jojo as she has an idea about it. She even thanks them especially Jojo for catching Wormwood.
Jojo looks at Chrysta as Skylar is with her. "Sure", Jojo said to Chrysta as she hops on Skylar as this is a brand new thing for her. Rex looks at Jojo as he does admire the black and brown dog.
Chrysta, Skylar, and Jojo leaves the castle ground as she has the cage with her the other animals agree to give Jojo some time and space as well. Chrysta looks at the cage as Twitch is still in here. 'A copy spell, there is no way it could be Prisma that would equip wormwood with it'. Chrysta thought to herself as she is getting the feeling that someone else is involved with it.
Back at the Mystic Isles, the protectors see Chrysta returning as they see cage in her hands with Twitch in it. They are stunned to see it as they realize that something was up. Plus they are stunned to see a dog with Chrysta. "Is that the dog that caught Twitch"? Orion asks Chrysta as he is wondering about it.
Chrysta nods as she looks at Orion as it really surprised her. "Yeah Jojo pinned Twitch and waited for me to come. I thought she would get Wormwood's scent". Chrysta said to Orion as she has the idea in mind.
Orion agrees with Chrysta as it is a good idea. He even watched the footage as well. "Thank you for your help Jojo. Plus we may need you as well". Orion said to Jojo as he pets her.
Vega looks at Chrysta as she is surprised by the footage. "The animal friends at the Enchancia Castle we're not kidding when the real Twitch has been caught". Vega said to Chrysta as the cage is handed off to another protector to put it in the tower.
Chrysta nods as she looks at them as a sudden realization comes to her. "We might have a serious problem on our hands. If the real Twitch was at the Enchancia Castle, then the real Wormwood is somewhere out there". Chrysta said to them as it is something to check on.
The protectors are stunned as they could have a serious problem on their hands. "We need to check Wormwood's cell now". Orion said to them as they need to double check.
Vega agrees as they need to double check on the cell at the tower. "Lets go", Vega said to Orion and Chrysta as she has a full mind to find out if it is true or not. The protectors nods as they went up straight into the tower. Jojo follows them to the tower as she is wondering what is going on even further.
In the tower, the three protectors walk into Wormwood's cell. Wormwood turns its head to them. "Hahaha, I have tricked all of you idiotic fools and spineless Cedric too". Wormwood said to them as it poofs away like it vanished away. The protectors are stunned as they got tricked by this.
Jojo is starting to smell for Wormwood's scent as she got it as she is running out of the cell. "Well, that real bird brain is not here". Jojo said to them as she is leading the way.
Chrysta frowns as she realizes that something else must have happened in the throne room right under everyone's noses on that night. "We need Woodworm to be found quickly". Chrysta said to them as she is wondering where to start looking on the battle footage to find out when the copies were made.
Orion nods as he looks at Chrysta as something needs to be done really quickly. "Agreed, plus Sofia needs to be notified about this immediately. Where is the royal family"? Orion asks Chrysta as the three of them head back to the main level of the headquarters.
Chrysta looks at Orion as Vega is deeply annoyed that they all fell for the copy of Wormwood. "They are out of the kingdom and went to the kingdom of Avalor". Chrysta said to Orion as she knows about it because Sofia told her the night before they left.
Orion frowns as he remembers about the funeral. "Right of course, I am going to head to Avalor to warn Princess Sofia. They are not going to like this especially Cedric. Jojo, you are coming with me". Orion said to them as he knows that the royal family of Enchancia is not going to like this.
Jojo nods as she looks at Orion as this is her first time working with a mystic being. "Alright", Jojo said to Orion as she hops on Skylar again.
Chrysta looks at Orion as she knows that Cedric is not going to like this. "Okay good luck Orion", Chrysta said to Orion as she and Vega will need to do something as well.
Orion turns to Chrysta and Vega as he needs to get moving to the Ever Realm. "Thanks", Orion said to Chrysta nods as he takes off from the isles as he heads towards Avalor. Skylar and Jojo are taking off towards the Ever Realm and the kingdom of Avalor.
Vega looks at Chrysta as she is pondering about something. "Chrysta, how could have this happen? I mean wasn't he working with Prisma"? Vega asks Chrysta as she is wondering how it happened let alone getting deceived and duped.
Chrysta looks at Vega as it is true that Wormwood was working with Prisma up on the graduation day and party. "That's right, it could be anyone for we know now. Plus Cedric wouldn't know who or what Wormwood went off to be with either. He also didn't know that he caught the copies and not the real ones". Chrysta said to Vega as she realizes that Cedric would not have a clue about it.
Vega frowns as this is very bad as it could be anyone in the Ever Realm or Mystic Isles. "We have to call ever protector we have". Vega said to Chrysta as they have to get the attention of every protector that they have and get started on those calls.
Meanwhile at the hideout in Avalor, Renee and Wormwood smirks as they watch the entire funeral with the viewing crystal ball. However they frown as they learn that Queen Isabelle is going to cut ties with her. Also, she is furious that Queen Isabelle tore up the fake will and the fake arrange marriage papers. Plus they even watch the footage from what happened at the Enchancia Castle. "Well, that stupid rat got himself caught". Wormwood said to Renee as he expected as much that Twitch couldn't stay in hiding long enough.
Renee nods as she looks at Wormwood as she doesn't like how a dog has caught Twitch. "That rat wasn't smart enough". Renee said to Wormwood as she is annoyed that Twitch got caught already.
Wormwood looks at Renee as he agrees. "Yes well, those protectors now realize that they had copies on their hands". Wormwood said to Renee as the wild goose chase has begun.
Renee looks at Wormwood as the plan is going accordingly well. "It is a wonder for a plan to go this smoothly my pet. Plus it is time to contact a person to help lure the brat and Cedric to a prime spot for Triabon and Obereon to capture them. Also, I think it is time to let them know that we are on to them". Renee said to Wormwood as she plans to make a magic call to someone.
Wormwood nods as he looks at Renee as he is wondering who the contact is. "Who do you have in mind"? Wormwood asks Renee as he is curious about whom she will contact.
Renee smirks as she looks at Wormwood as she is holding her wand in her hands. "Prince George that's who, plus the royal family will be going to the Avalor Palace tomorrow before heading home back to Enchancia. Prince George and his parents are in that part of Avalor. Once Prince George lures that brat and Cedric to Castel Park, Obereon and Triabon will bring them to us. He will lie to those who are looking for them. Then we will head to Vallestra with them fooling everyone". Renee said to Wormwood as the final stages of the plan are in place.
Wormwood smirks as he looks at Renee. "Excellent, although, how will let them know that we are on to them". Wormwood said to Renee as things are going accordingly to the plan.
Renee nods as she makes the call as Prince George is on board with the scheme to lure Mariangela and Cedric out. "Exactly, they will be ours soon enough. I need a couple of your feathers". Renee said to Wormwood as they laugh evilly. However, they have no idea that someone over heard them.
Wormwood pecks a couple of feathers out as he hands it Renee. He watches her places a knock out energy draining spell on the feathers. "What are the feathers for anyways"? Wormwood asks Renee as he is curious about it.
Renee looks at Wormwood as she uses other spells to get the viewing crystal ball down to smaller size to carry. "If someone is to wonder in here, they will pick up these feathers that will take energy out from them that will cause them to pass out. That way, those people at the Avalor palace will not have their guards to search for us". Renee said to Wormwood as they are laughing about things.
A man frowns as this is not going to be good at all. 'A royal family, Enchancia, could this mean that Princess Sofia is back here in Avalor but why? Why are they after her and some person that I never met before? unless they are after someone else that i am not aware about. I have to least warn them'. the man thought to himself as he vanishes away with out them knowing it.
