One week later, after bonding with his children and Blair, Jaden had to leave, but he promised he'd return one day to take them all back to his kingdom with him. Blair had been okay with it, as were the twins it seemed since they didn't cry when he left, but Ana was getting nervous.

When would the letter from the Queen arrive? She was so anxious to see it that even Blair was starting to notice.

"Ana-sempai, are you alright? You seem awfully nervous." Blair asked.

"Really? Oh, sorry, Blair-kohai, I just had a bad dream that's been repeating itself in my head." Ana covered.

"Really? What happens in it?"

"That's just it. I don't remember what happens, I just know it was something horrible that happened to my friends and that I couldn't do anything to save them."

"You have friends? Oh, sorry that didn't come out right."

"Its fine. It's not like I talk about my life before I came here, now do I?"

"Not much."

"See? Anyway, yeah, I keep having a nightmare about my friends and it's just been getting me jumpy. Sorry for scaring you, Blair-kohai."

"Its okay, Ana-sempai. Just tell me next time, okay?"

"Sure."

With a nod, the discussion was over and Ana silently thanked the heavens she was a good liar. And speaking of liars…

Knock-knock!

"Oh, let me get it this time, Blair." Ana called.

"Hai!" Blair agreed.

Putting her dish cloth down, Ana ran to the front door and opened it to see someone in a knight-like uniform holding a envelop in his right hand.

"This is a letter addressed to a miss Blair Flannigan." He stated, his accent holding a bit of southerners.

Not letting any surprise show on her face at the voice, Ana smiled at the man.

"Oh, that's my friend's, I'll give it to her. Would you like to come in?" She offered.

The man looked a bit surprised, but smiled and nodded.

"I would very much like that, ma'am." He stated.

Ana smiled and stepped to the side, allowing the man in her house.

"Blair, we have a guest!" She called.

Instantly, Blair appeared with the twins in her arms, smiling at the man who stood beside her sempai.

"Miss Blair, it is an honour to meet you." The man bowed slightly.

"No formalities, please. Just call me Blair. The woman you're with is my Ana-sempai." The amber-eyed girl smiled.

"Pleasure." The man said and shook hands with Ana.

"Like wise. Now, you know who we are, but who are you?" Ana asked him.

"My name is Jesse Anderson." He stated.

"Would you please remove your mask, sir?"

"Sure."

With that, the man took off his mask and showed that he was Ana's boyfriend: Johan Anderson. Or the fairy tale version of him it seemed. He still had the crazy blue hair, emerald eyes and tanned skin, even his knight uniform resembled his school uniform (AN: He's dressed as the Duel Monster: Crystal Protector).

"So, what does the letter say, Ana-sempai?" Blair asked, turning her body so she was facing her sempai.

"It says, Blair-kohai..." Ana trailed off and started reading it out loud.

To my dearest Blair,

I have missed you so and long to see both you and the twins, but due to circumstances, I am unable to visit you right now, but I miss the twins very much, so I wish for them to be sent to the capital. My sister will be there, awaiting to pick them up for me.

I love you more than the moon and the sun combined,

Sincerely, Jaden

"You're with Jaden, as in, King Jaden Yuki?" Jesse questioned.

"Yeah, it's kinda a long story, but to make it short, he gave me the twins Celena and Samson by accident and we've been bonding for a little bit over them." Blair chuckled, nervously.

"No wonder Jay seemed happier after his little outing into the woods."

"You know the King personally?"

"Yeah, why else would I call him by a nickname only his childhood friends could call him by?"

"Well, I've been asleep for about 20 years, or more, so I didn't even know Jaden existed until I woke up."

"Seriously?"

"Like I said, it's a long story, but I wouldn't want to keep Jaden or you waiting anymore, so could you take the twins to the castle?"

"Sure thing."

"I'd like to come." Ana cut in, surprising the two.

Jesse shrugged, "Sure thing, I don't see why you can't."

"But, who'll be back here to look after me?" Blair asked.

"Don't worry, Blair-kohai, it's just for a week or so, then we'll send someone to come get you." Ana assured her friend.

"Okay."

With the discussion over, Ana began packing her and the twins' bags while Jesse and Blair become a little bit closer. She was done quickly and leaving the house almost as fast, venturing with Jesse into the woods.

Ana decided to try striking up conversation, "Sir Anderson-"

"Please, call me Jesse." He chuckled, smiling at her.

Ana smiled back, "Jesse it is then. And I would like to ask you something."

"Ask away."

"Does Jaden actually have a sister?"

"No."

"Was that letter written in Jaden's hand writing?"

"No."

"So, is it safe to assume that whoever wrote it knew about Blair and the twins and wants them dead because of jealousy or something?"

"Yes."

"One more question, Jesse. Are you going to help protect the twins and Blair, or do you plan on slaying me and the kids in this forest, right here, right now?"

"No. I was ordered by Queen Alexis to get the twins and Blair to her and then ensure that if anyone found out about them, that I kill them to make sure her involvement in the entire thing wasn't even a myth. However, for the first time since he's married the body bitch, Jaden finally seems to be happy and I think it's because of Blair and the twins."

"So, you'll protect them?"

"I will. Jaden's my best friend, I would never let him down like that."

"Good. Because I would have handed your ass to you if you'd been planning on hurting a hair on any of their heads."

"You talk a big game, but can a woman like yourself back it up?"

"Where I'm from, gender has nothing to do with it, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't bring that into it here, either, please."

"My apologies, then, Ana."

With that, the two continued on their way in a much less tense silence. They reached the capital by nightfall and the young twins were fast asleep. Jesse and Ana arrived at the palace front doors and after Jesse confirmed it was him, they were let in. As soon as they were in a hallway where no one would listen in, Ana turned to Jesse.

"I think I should hide." She stated, "If the Queen doesn't know she has one more enemy in these palace walls, it will be an advantage to us."

"What about the guards that saw you walk in here, bright as day?" He questioned.

"Based on how you talked with Sir Hassleberry and Sir Truesdale, I would be right to assume that you are friends, right? If so, ask them to not tell anyone of me or of them ever knowing me."

"I could try."

"Thanks. Look after the twins and if the Queen tries to hurt them, let me know with 3 clicks of your fingers."

"Okay. I'll see you, Ana."

"See ya around, Jesse."

After handing Sam and Celena to the knight, Ana ran down the corridors in the opposite direction to where Jesse continued on. She came across a primitive ventilation system and like the spy she would pretend to be as a child, used it to sneak into the building and hopefully find the location of the kitchen or wherever this Queen Alexis was hiding.
