Chapter 8

Everyone was silent.
Most were in a state of shock.
Cassie was gone.
Yakko fell to his knees and put his head in his hands.
Rose closed her eyes as tears came and she hugged her brother.
Trakko held her and bowed his head. Zack just stood and stared.
He couldn't believe she was gone.

Suddenly Wakko and Dot ran up to the bunch, out of breath.
"Guys! We heard the noise out here, what happened?!"
The question was left unanswered for quite a while. Then Trakko
turned to them.
"Cassie's gone."
"what? Who are you?" Dot asked.
"I am Trakko, and this is my sister Rose. We were trying to help."

"Its not true Yakko, is it?" Wakko asked.
Yakko wouldn't answer him.
"Yakko?" Dot looked at him. Then she realized this was no joke.

"It's all my fault.." Yakko said after a while. "I was so mad,
I overreacted and if I always was by her, they wouldn't have kidnapped
her."
"Yakko, it wasn't your fault." Rose's sign said.
"Rose is right. Its The Witches Council's fault. We all played
right into their hands." Trakko looked at Yakko.
While they had been talking, Zack disappeared. He was running
off the lot.
"Someday, somehow, I will find her." He promised himself.

Yakko's heart hurt too much, he finally broke down and the others
had to help him get back to the tower.
"Well fine her, somehow." Dot said, trying to soothe Yakko.
Yakko sniffled and then looked at the sky, twinkling with stars.

"You're right, we will get her back. Hear that Cass? We'll save
you."
