A/N: MY NEWEST CHAPTER! THIS IS WHEN ALL OF YOU SAY = NO KIDDING!

~*~

Summary:

Jin knew the royal family, she grew up with them until the castle was taken over by Wanda. Hitomi has been on the search for Virginia. Is she closer than what she already thought?

~*~

Jin walked slowly to the table, her hands behind her back. Hitomi, Tyler, and Zatera followed her. Wanda ordered the guards to take the cuffs off their wrists. They sat down in the same seats as before.

After eating a little while Wanda stood up.

"Take them back to their cells! They have had enough food!" She said. The guards put them all back into their cells. Hitomi hit her head and more blood came down her face.

"I really don't need this…" She mumbled silently to herself.

This time, they weren't tied to the wall, just stuck in the cell. They heard footsteps coming down the hall and the door opened. In the light was Wanda.

"Girl!" Wanda scolded over to Jin. Jin scowled and stood up from her seat. Wanda grabbed the chain on her neck and started to pull her out of the room. She stuck her head back in to address the other three. "The guards will be here for you later…we wouldn't want you to miss the show…" Wanda said slowly to them. All three of them sucked in a breath. Jin started to bite her lip. "Come on!" Wanda said, while pulling Jin's chain harder.

~*~

"People of Zantaki!" Wanda addressed them again. "For years on end, we have searched for the princess', to return them home where they belong," Jin started to breathe harder. 'Not even Wanda would do this…' She thought to herself.

Hitomi was in the very back of the crowd with Tyler and Zatera. She saw a figure running towards them. She squinted at it and felt some weight that was on her chest lift a little.

"Van!" She cried to him. The guard that was holding her chain jerked her neck, not really caring if he broke it. Van glared at the guard.

"I've been given permission to stay here." He said through clenched teeth. The guards nodded their heads. Van stared at them for a moment.

"Leave." He said. The guards looked at him as if he were crazy.

"And leave the traitors? But they out-"

"Leave. Leave so Zantaki doesn't having bad views from Fanailia." The guards stared at him again 'He's doing this for four murderers?' They both thought. They bowed to him and handed him the chains.

In the room…

Merle picked up the painting. On it was a little girl. Around four years old. She was holding a baby in her arms. Merle touched it lightly, checking to see if there was any dust on it. She looked back to where she found the painting. She found a small scroll. She handed the painting over to Allen who squinted at it.

"The girl looks familiar…" He mused. Merle nodded her head agreeing with him while she rolled open the scroll.

On this day, we left our home for a new one. We left behind the only one who could move us to one place or another. It was a trouble though, for she is also one who is needed to be protected…life without her will be awful…find Virginia, find Virginia…

Merle put the letter back down. 'That was strange…' She thought, 'and very creepy!'

~*~

"Zantaki! You have been betrayed by one of your OWN!" Wanda boomed. Jin had tears running down her cheeks. 'Please Wanda…don't do this…please…' She prayed silently as Wanda yelled the news to the people. "She said her name was Jin! Also known as Juearo Hateto! Woman Bird! Human Bird! Now let me tell you what else she is known by…Jin…Jin…VIRGINIA!" Everybody sucked in a breath.

~*~
Hitomi's head snapped up.

"Vir-Virginia?" She asked. Tyler was staring at Jin, not believing it, like Zatera.

"She's Virginia?" Zatera asked, "But doesn't that mean that…that…"

"She's one of the lost princess' of Zantaki." Tyler said, breathing hard. Hitomi was lost in her own thoughts though. 'Vir-Virginia? She's Jin? But-but that means that…' Hitomi stuttered in her mind. 'I found the person my mom wanted me to! But…how did she know Jin…or Virginia…'
