Tessa arrives at the Old Taurus Palace

Tooka went into the palace "Tooka, Tooka where are you" Tessa removes the broad off


"Did you hear something" Tom asked

"No" Orion responded


Tessa enters the old palace and feels something familiar about this place

"Hello anybody home" Tessa blows dust off a plate and picks it up to see her reflection

The reflection changes to a Taurus girl dancing with a Taurus man and Tessa snaps out of it and puts it down

Tessa is starting to feel like she has been here before "This place is like a memory from a dream"

Dancing bears painted wings

Things I almost remember and a song someone sings once upon a Star December

Someone holds me safe and warm horses prance through a silver storm figures dancing gracefully across my memory

Taurus people appear from the windows dancing in the ballroom. Three Taurus girls came out of the painting, and then a Taurus boy with two Taurus couple

Someone holds me safe and warm

The three girls are looking at Tessa

They wore emerald green, and had bull horns

Horses prance through a silver storm

Figures dancing gracefully across my memory

Tessa wears an emerald green dress and dances

Far away long-ago glowing dim as amber

Things my heart used to know things it learns to remember

Tessa dances with a Taurus man that felt familiar to Tessa

And a song someone sings

The man gave Tessa a kiss on the forehead

Once Upon a Star December

"Hey" Tessa snaps out of her daydreaming "What are you doing here" Tessa runs for it "Hey" Tessa didn't stop "Stop, stop, stop hold on a minute hold on" Tessa stops "Now how did you get in here…" Tom notice that Tessa look like the Taurus Grand Duchess Tessastasia"

"Excuse me child"

"Orion do you see what I see"

"No" Tom puts Orion glasses on "Huh yes. Yes!"

"Are you Tom"

"Cute perhaps that all depends on who's looking for him"

"My name is Tessa and I need travel papers they say you're the man to see even though I can't tell you who sent it" Tom is circling Tessa "Hey why are you circling me what are you a vulture in another life"

"I'm sorry Terra"

"It's Tessa!"

"Tessa…it's just that you look an awful a lot like uh never mind…now you said something about travel papers"

"Yes, I like to go to Zodiaque"

"You like to go to Zodiaque"

"Who is this ah he likes me" says Orion admiring the dog

"Nice dog now let me ask you something Tessa was it is there a last name that goes with that"

"Well actually this is gonna sound crazy I don't know my last name I was found wondering around when I was 8 years old"

"And before that before you were 8"

"Look I know it's strange I don't remember I have very few memories of my past"

"Hm that's perfect"

"Well I do have one clue and that is Zodiaque"

"Zodiaque"

"Right so can you two help me or not"

"Orion the tickets" Tom whispered to Orion and he checks his pockets for the tickets "Oh sure would like in fact oddly enough we're going to Zodiaque ourselves and I got" Orion gave him circus tickets "I got three tickets here but unfortunately the third one is for her Tessastasia" Tom points to the portrait of Tessastasia

"Oh"

"We are going to reunite the Taurus Grand Duchess Tessastasia with her Taurus Grandma"

"You do kind of resemble her"

"The same emerald-green eyes"

"The Byk eyes"

"Taren's smile"

"Tressa's chin"

"Oh, she even has the Grandmother's hand"

"She's the same age the same physical type"

"Are you trying to tell that you think that I am Tessastasia"

"All I'm trying to tell you is that I seen thousands of Taurus girls all over the country and not one of looks as much as the Taurus Grand Duchess as you I mean look at the portrait"

"I knew you were crazy from the beginning but now I think your both mad"

"Why you don't remember what happen to you"

"No one knows what happen to her"

"You're looking for family in Zodiaque"

"And her only family is in Zodiaque"

"Ever that about the possibility"

"That I could be royalty" says Tessa "Well I don't know it's kind of hard to think of yourself as a Taurus duchess when your sleeping on a damp floor but sure yeah I guess every little girl in the world would hope she's a princess"

"And some little girl is after all the name Tessastasia she will rise again"

"Really wish we could help but the third ticket is for the Taurus Grand Duchess Tessastasia good luck" the two left Tessa alone


"Why didn't you tell her about our brilliant plan"

"All she wants to do is go to Zodiaque why give away a third reward money"

"I'm telling you we're walking away too soon"

"Not to worry I got it all under control alright walk a little slower"


Tessa looks at the portrait of the Taurus Grand Duchess Tessastasia with the Taurus Dowager Empress Talia


"3…2…1"

"Tom"

"Right in the palm of our hands" whispered Orion

"Tom wait"

"Did you call me" says Tom pretending to be alarmed

"If I don't remember who I am then who's to say that I'm not a Taurus Princess or a Taurus Duchess or whatever she is right"

"Um go on"

"Yeah if I'm not Tessastasia the Taurus Empress will surely know right away and that it's all just an honest mistake"

"Sound possible"

"But if you are the Taurus Princess then your finally know who you are and have your family back"

"You know his right either way it gets you to Zodiaque"

"Right" they shock hands and Tessa squeezed too tight

"Ow" Tom felt that she squeezed too tight "May I present her royal highness the Taurus Grand Duchess Tessastasia"

"Tooka we are going to Zodiaque"

"Uh the Taurus dog stays"

"What are you talking about the dog goes"
