Just letting you all know that some of the characters from the show may be acting a bit differently then what they should, but they are going to be like this for the story, so please just go along with the idea.

Chapter 8- The Curser

Mom, King Roland, and I were standing in his office, with a letter that was worn and torn, in a box that held an envelope of the letter. The envelope had a crown draw on it, to symbolize who it was meant to belong to. I looked closer and saw a child's hand writing. The letter belonged to King Roland.

"Do you remember this letter?" he asked me. I took the letter that was held out for me to grab.

Dear King,

I am sure that you don't remember me, but I am the little girl who spends the night at your home. It was beautiful—it still is. There will be times where it will be tough and, in those times, you must remain strong for your children. You still have your wife, but it will seem as though she isn't around, but she is—through Princess Amber and Prince James. She also is in your heart. I know that she wouldn't want you to sad, so please be strong and kind as you always are.

Don't worry, there will be a day where you will find someone that will love you and you them. And you will meet me again, and when that happens, please don't think so horribly of me. I only do these things because I don't want my mother and sister to get hurt.

Please don't be harsh on Cedric, he is lost, and right now he will need someone to help him. He is not a bad person, he is just misunderstood. He needs someone to look after him, and I can only do so much to help Cedric… So please, after every mistake he does, don't dismiss him.

Evelyn.

I had read and re-read the letter. It was written by a young girl, who had the same hand writing, but it was not me who had written the letter. I was very confused on why there was a letter, but I would have remembered writing this, wouldn't I? I know that my mind has been fuzzy since the day I was slammed against the ground by James. That day, I was sent to another place… Maybe it had to do with that place? I thought, but I quickly dismiss that idea.

"I don't remember writing this letter. But it might be because of my mind still being hazy from the incident with James pushing me out of the way…" I explained. He sighed as he looked down at the desk. "But it is my hand writing. I am not saying that it isn't." I saw that he was looking at me, cautiously. I placed the letter back down, folded. I looked at the window and saw that the carriage came back, dropping off the five royal members at school.

"Evelyn, are you alright?" mom asked me. I turn to look at her.

"Have you ever felt as though you are meant to be somewhere, but you are, and you don't know why?" I asked, my head tilted. "Or something is supposed to happen, but it doesn't?"

I wasn't sure what happened next, but I was pretty sure there was an explosion and there was fire and smoke coming from the tower that belonged to Cedric. I suddenly felt dread. I hope that wasn't what I was thinking was going to happen. I bolted out of the room, looking for a way to Cedric's tower. I ran and ran, until I reached the tower that was filled with black thick smoke.

"CEDRIC!" I screamed out, my legs where telling me to stop running, to sit down, but I pushed forward. I didn't stop until I saw Cedric, his body unconscious over his book, black marks with white soot all over his clothes. I quickly grabbed him and pulled and dragged him down the tower. I was panicking; I didn't know what I was going to do. I just started to pound on his chest.

"Evelyn, let the doctor take a look at him," My mom said as someone had tried to pull me off of Cedric. I was trying to fighting the person to try to help Cedric. Something told me that I was able to help him that the doctor would be able to. I grazed something that was thin on the ground as someone had finally moved me away from Cedric. I turned to see a white wand, that had two tips, the power that that the wand held was powerful. I turned to see Cedric, his faces darkened from the black soot. Tears rolling down my face, as I look at his motionless body. I was pulled away from him.

I don't know how long I was just sitting in my room, but I know that it was long past dinner. I took a deep breath. I didn't want to be bothered, because I know something wasn't right. Something just didn't feel right since this morning. I know that James and Sofia had drank a bit last night. I know that Amber was trying to stay good, and not get into the alcohol, but I know that she had a sip or two. Hugo, he was smiling and making Sofia smile and Clio, she had been happy around James. Mom and King Roland where dancing, I left the party and meet Cedric in the garden… The garden, in which I was singing to the Moon…

This isn't right, there was something going on, and I don't know what to do. I started to pace my room. I bit my lip and held the white wand in my hands. I know what I need to do. I have to go to the tower and look at what the hell happened in his tower and see what is happening around here. I held the white wand in a vise grip and left my room and I was a girl on a mission to see how I am going to fix this mess.

Once I reached his tower, I walked up the spiral staircase and walked over to the wooden door that was shattered and a part of the door was still hanging on the hinges. The smoke was long gone, but it was still scorched in black marks on the floor and walls. I saw a picture. The painting was of two people, a woman and man. I went over and touched the painting. They must be Cedric's parents. I thought as my fingers moved slowly over their faces.

Their faces were smiling. I felt pain and sadness from the picture. As if the portrait was alive. "Hello," I spoke softly trying to ease myself from the idea that the picture was alive.

"Well, hello, dear," the voice-a female said as the woman from the painting came through. I jumped back in fear.

"Oh, don't worry, child," the man said as he came out of the portray. I backed away slowly, took a deep breath.

"I… I didn't think someone could live in a painting… Let alone someone coming out of a portray like that," I said, "I am Evelyn."

"Oh, we know who you are, dear. Cedric spoke about you when all of you returned. He was amazed about how someone can live so long in that horrible environment," the woman said as she came closer to me. "My name is Winfred, this is my husband Goodwyn."

"We're so worried about what happen, but who ever came in here had blocked the portrait's magic to allow us to come through. We know that it had to deal with blood magic, but that's all…" Goodwyn stated, and my face paled. I took a deep breath and sat down on the floor.

"Blood… magic?" I repeated hesitantly.

"Yes," Winfred said. "We are positive about that because you were able to break the spell that was on the portrait…"

"There are only a few people who I know that can use blood magic, and if it is someone in my family, then there is only one person that I could think of, but he was banished… banished to another realm…" I said worried that he might have found a way back into this world. It had taken me years before I had been able to free myself from the realm that I sent him.

"Honey, it might not be that man…" Winfred started until I cut him off.

"It is, I know it is. My father, he will stop at nothing to get back at those who are in his way. Cedric, my mom, King Rol…" I my eyes widen in fear, I darted out of the room. "I am not strong to fight him again…" I whispered as I tried to find where my family is located at. I couldn't sense them anywhere. I sighed as I tried to find someone who knew where they were. I passed a room that caught my attention. It was the room that held Cedric's motionless body. Something told me to enter and help him, but I didn't know what I could do. All the spells that I knew where for harming people and hurting people isn't what I wanted to do, I never wanted to become a monster.

I squashed all those fears as I walked into the room. Cedric, he was walking around the room shirtless. I was grateful that he was wearing pants, because I would have been blushing madly. I closed the door loud enough to make it audible, but soft enough so that only those within a few rooms could hear. He jumped as he heard the door close. I saw that he was blushing as he saw me.

"Princess…" I heard him started to say. I covered his mouth as I heard someone walking by. I pulled him away from the middle of the room to the side, where the closet was.

"Shh…" was all I said as I heard the door open and a man walked in. It wasn't the doctor from earlier, it was someone that made my wanted to scream. I felt sick. He seemed like forever since he walked in to the room, that he walked out slamming the door.

"Where the fuck is that girl?" he yelled. "Come out, Evelyn. If you want to see your mother, sisters, brother, and dad…" he yelled making the room feel smaller and smaller by the moment. I wrapped my arms around my legs and I rocked a bit, until I had felt arms wrap around me.

"You are alright," he said calmly, pulling me into his chest, which was warm to the touch because he was burned from what ever happened. I sighed as relaxed in his arms and I closed my eyes.

"We need a plan," Cedric said as he walked into his tower, with the white wand in his hand, and there was someone else who I didn't know in the room, talking to Winfred and Goodwyn. "Cordelia, what are you doing here? And Mummy, Father, how…"

"Long story, I broke the spell on the portrait," I said as I had grabbed the bag that held all of my father's spells and I grabbed the one that I knew that could bring us to somewhere safe.

"Uncle Ceddy…" a girl who seemed to be around nine-ten years old said. "What is going on?"

"Calista? How long have I been out?"

"Only a few hours," I said as I looked through the book, quickly. "Here is the spell, now I need a key…" I said mumbling as I heard the footsteps coming up the steps. I quickly closed the book and shoved the book back into the bag. I grabbed hold of my bracelet that was inside the bag. I turned to face the opened doorway. I wasn't going to let that man get the best of me.

"Why do you need a key?" someone asked me.

"To open a portal to somewhere safe…" I said I as I gripped the bracelet in a vice grip. Cedric had placed a hand on my shoulder.

"You don't need to fight, none of us…"

"I am not going to fight. I know a spell that can slow him down, but I need to be sure it is him, before I cast it," I spoke with firm and confidence. The shadow was getting closer. I took a few steps towards the door, as I did the figure of the man that I had banished was standing here, right in front of me. The words slipped passed my lips faster than I could think. The location of where my family is, where I can find the key. Everything that he tried to keep away, hidden away in his thoughts, revealed. I snatched the key ring, which held several different keys, all I knew was that the key that was holding my family was on this ring and to hell I was going to let him harm anyone else, especially them.
