CH. 6 A contiuation of Rvelations

Anna stood outside the doors to the study. What did the master want with her? She sighed and opened the doors, She saw Vincent talking with Belle and one of the servants, whom she found out his name was Cogsworth.

"You wanted to see me , my lord?" She asked

Everyone turned around to see her. At first, the stares were uncomfortable for Anna, but she saw that their looks were warm, not cold.

Vincent walked up to her, "Anna, first of all, I would like to appologise for my behavior at our first meeting. Indeed, it was very out of line."

"No sir," Anna said timidly, " You had the right to-"

"No Anna, I was very qick to judge. I beg your forgiveness"

Anna looked away and nodded. Does this mean that he trusts me now? "Is that all you wanted me for sir?"

Vincent shook his head, "No mademoiselle, I have asked you here to discuss your pupose for being sent here.What is it exactly that threatens my family?"

Anna walked over toward the window, she thought about that fatefull day when her grandmother saw that grim vison in the oracle,

... "Grandmama, whats wrong?" Anna asked Celine.

"Anna, come here child."

Anna walked over to her grandomthers resting place, lately she had grown frail, she barely had any strength within her to perform such complex spells as summoning a vision in the oracle.

"Yes Grandmother?"

Celine grasped Anna's hand, "Take my hand child, we will need our magic combined to summon the oracle"

Anna firmly held on to her grandmother's hand, placed the other over the crystal ball with her grandmother's hand. In unison the recited the incantation,

"Gestum ex ellios mundes, nos te apello uit aduco damus"

Their eyes went white and smoke filled the crystal ball. In their minds eye, they saw an evil warlock kidnapping a young girl of sixteen, "I finally have the child of magic!" he shouted into the night.. In the background a castle was underseige, the bodies of the royal family sprawled across the grounds. In the distance the heartbroken cry of a jilted lover cold be heard in the distance, along with the roar of a beast.

Anna came back to reality, she now wished that she hadn't agreed to help her grandmother .

"Grandmama, what did that vision mean?"

"Anna, you must go to the castle Arnaud. You must guard the royal family from him."

"Who?"

"He is the son of an old enemy of the royal family. He is after the child of magic."

"Who is the Child of magic?"

"She is the rose of the beast" (A/N: haha! Damian!)

Anna gasped, "You don't mean?"

Celine only nodded. Anna stood up and walked behind the crystal ball,

"But Grandmother," she protested," I have just barely completed my training! I cannot handle such a task as this".

Celine looked at her with pleading eyes, "Anna, you were chosen to continue in my line after I passed away. Your mother has refused her magic, and I am too weak. You are the one who should rightfully take this responsibility".

"But grandmother, I can't-"

"Anna, I trust you with their safety. You will do well grandaughter."

Anna fingered the small crystal in her pocket then spoke, "He is the son of an old enemy."

"Can you tell us anything else?" Questioned Belle.

Anna took out the Crystal and held it out, "I can try my lady, I can try."

Anna recited the incantaion and her eyes went white. She spoke with an erie tone, "Beware the red death at the Bal Masque, beneath the sea of masks is an enemy. He seeks the child of magic. She is grave danger, disaster will take place. Only one of great magic and one of true heart can save her, can save the child of magic."

Anna snapped back into reality. Vincent and Belle looked at her with worry and fear in their eyes.

"Who is the child of Magic?" Asked Belle.

Anna looked at her with disdain, "Your daughter"

Belle clung on to Vincent as he wraped his arms around her. He ordered Cogsworth to leave the room. As soon as the servant left the room, Vincent sat down in front of Anna.

"What can you do to protect her?" he asked.

Anna only shrugged, "I don't know my lord. All I can do is pray and cast a few spells to make sure that no pureblooded warlock with evil magic in his vains can cross into the castle grounds".

"Are you sure she can be safe?" asked Belle.

"All we can do is pray my lady. Hopefully my grandmother's decison was not in vain," Answered Anna.

Vincent sighed, and released Anna from the meeting.

Anna rushed down the hallway and made her way to her room to collect her spellbooks. But she was stopped halfway when she crashed into Chip and fell onto top of him.

"Oh lord! I am so sorry! I didn't see you!" She said hastily getting out of the compromising position.

"I'ts okay, nothing is broken." he said as he got up.

There was an awkward silence between the two of them. Anna looked away and blushed under her hood.

"Well, uh, see you later," Anna said rushing off. But, like Rose, Chip grabed her arm and stopped her.

"No wait," Chip said. The jerk made Anna's hood fall off her head as she turned around to face him. Chip was taken aback by her beauty, her emerald eyes were hypnotising, her raven hair tumbled around her shoulders. He let go of her arm and and stared at her wide-eyed. Anna felt uncmfortable, "What are you staring at?" she asked timidly.

Chip shook his head, "Sorry, I just never really got a good look at your face before. "

Anna crossed her arms in front of her chest, "Am I that hideous?"

"No, on the contrary you are quite lovely," he said. Anna blushed.

"I believe we have never been properly introduced," he said, " My name is Chip Potts,"

Anna supresed a giggle, " Anna, " she said cooly.

"Are you going to the masquerade tomorrow?" he asked

"I might, " Anna answered, " But I will have to spend the night being Rose's bodyguard".

"Why couldn't your grandmother have come herself?"

"She is weak and I am the last of my line," She answered, "No if you don't mind I have to look up some spells". And with that she disapeared in the blink of an eye.

Chip just watched the spot wher she stood just now. Mystifying.
