Italy, Dante's House:
Zhalia, Den, Harrison, Sophie, and Dante walk into the house. Zhalia is pacing back and forth with frustration boiling her blood. She wants to find Lok and knock some sense into his brain. Dante leans up against the counter of the kitchen while the other three sit down on the couch and armchairs. Zhalia continue to pace back and forth trying not to rip off her head with anger. She wants to find Lok now.
"I had to cancel my wedding and now we can't even find Lok!" Zhalia yells aloud. "Where is he?"
"You know Lok. He is probably, visiting Emma." Sophie whispers the last part of the sentence.
"I told him to leave Emma alone." Zhalia screams through her teeth.
"Zhalia..." Dante walks up to her and places his hand on her shoulder. "Why is it a big deal of Lok visiting Emma?"
Zhalia stops talking for a moment. She lowers her head and places her hand on Dante's. Sophie stares at Zhalia, watching her face change within seconds. Zhalia isn't telling them something. Den and Harrison stare at her with a questioning look on their faces.
"Zhalia?" Dante whispers to her again, looking at her with a concern face.
She takes a deep breath before speaking. "When Emma and I were kids, something happened. We promised each other that we would never give up on each other unless it was for a very good reason. I promised her that I would find a way to save her from the two evil red doors. She really did agree with that at all."
"That doesn't explain why you don't want Lok to visit Emma." Sophie states to Zhalia, leaning her chin on the palm of her hand.
Dante eyes Sophie for a moment and looks at Zhalia with a concern expression in his eyes and on his face. "What is so wrong with wanting to find her Zhalia?"
Zhalia turns to face Dante and looks right at him. "Emma made me promise that if I could never get her out, to make sure no one ever found her. She wanted to make sure that no one spent their who lives searching to save her. She was so worried that I would never fall in love if I kept searching for her. So we made a deal that I would search for her for a year. After that year, I would forget about her and carry on with me life. I never wanted to give up on her. I never wanted to stop searching for a way to save her. I wanted to find her with all my heart. I wanted to get her out of this curse that has been placed on her since she was born. She is my dearest sister that I never wanted to loose ever again."
"So she chose for you to stop searching for her by herself." Dante looks at Zhalia.
"She wanted me to be happy. She wanted to save me and everyone else she could. She didn't want anyone to be in pain or misery because of her." Zhalia lays her head in Dante's chest. "She wanted everyone to be happy."
"But Lok said he found a way to save her." Sophie replies to Zhalia. "Why didn't you want him to look for her?"
"Emma was also afraid of something. Something inside that portal that locks her in a coma of sleep. She says that there are things trapped in there. She started to get worried that she would no longer be her if we released her. She believed that our uncle was correct. Emma will become a monster when or if we release her. She didn't want us to have the responsibility to have to trap her back in those doors." Zhalia answers Sophie with horror in her voice.
"Emma is afraid that she would be a monster when she gets released. She believed that your uncle was right. She would never come back to be her normal self." Sophie restates what Zhalia said.
"Magic will erupt as a means to an end. What you see will not be me but someone else. That someone else will be an evil monster replacing me. My power of magic is not strong enough to defeat the magic trapped in that portal. I must be stopped but not by the people I care about. The monster must not escape. Protect everyone my dear sister. I will entrust in you the power to stop me. The power to stop the magic from taking over everyone's lives. Protect them sis. I will always believe in you." Zhalia says to everyone with no emotion in her voice.
"What was that?" Harrison questions Zhalia.
"Emma told me that before her and I were separated. She wanted to make sure I knew what to do if she was ever released again." Zhalia tells them. She turns away Dante and looks at Den, Harrison, and Sophie. "Find Lok. We have to stop him from finding Emma."
"But where are we suppose to look for him? He could be anywhere." Den and Harrison answer her.
Everyone looks at Sophie. She sits there very quiet at that moment. She just talked with Lok a few hours ago. She knows where he is going. She hesitates back into her seat as everyone continues to stare at her.
"Where is your boyfriend?" Zhalia asks Sophie.
"One." Sophie argues with them. "Lok is not my boyfriend. Two. He is on a plane."
"Going where?" Dante wonders to Sophie.
"The United States." Sophie whispers slowly to them.
"What!" Everyone shouts to her.
"He and Jasmine are going after some keys to unlock Emma. They said that there are three keys that they have to find to free Emma. They said the United States was their first stop." Sophie informs them.
"They are searching for the keys. The keys to unlock the red doors that hold Emma in her state of sleep." Zhalia questions her with shock in her voice.
"Yeah. They didn't want to tell anyone of us because they thought they were doing the right thing." Sophie answers her.
"What are the Keys?" Dante, Den, and Harrison ask them.
"There are different Keys hidden throughout the world in my family. We have meaning secrets that must be kept a secret. Lok is looking for the three special keys. The keys that the first Key of our family locked away in the world so not one person could find them. They wanted to make sure no one could bring the Key's back through their sleeping state hidden through the red doors under the waterfall." Zhalia states to them.
"What do you mean by special keys?" Dante questions her.
"They help unlock the doors. They unlock the key to unleash Emma from her coma state. They are want I was suppose to look for in the first place before Emma and I made the deal with each other." Zhalia whispers with fear in her voice.
"Okay. They open the door. What is the big deal with that? Why didn't you tell us about them when we were trying to unlock Emma in the first place?" Sophie argues with Zhalia holding back information to them again.
"When you find the keys, as you place them into the key holes through the door something happens..." Zhalia stops talking as the front door of Dante's apartment explodes open.
Smoke appears covering everyone's eyes. Sophie, Den, and Harrison cover their eyes from the smoke while Dante holds onto Zhalia to protect her. As the smoke clears, three men in black suits walk up to the door.
"Who are you?" Dante orders them to answer.
"We are with the Organization. We are here for Zhalia Moon." One of the men answers Dante.
"You are not taking her!" Den and Harrison yell at the men.
"You will not have a choice. We have a new leader now. Now..." The man reaches his hand out towards Zhalia and Dante. "We will be taking the prisoner."
"No you will not!" Dante shouts at them as he lets go of Zhalia.
"Dante." Zhalia whispers in worry.
He starts to attack the organization members but his muscles start to slow down. Sophie, Den, and Harrison watch as their vision starts to blur. Zhalia's breathing starts to slow down as she realizes something. She drops to the ground unconscious. Den, Harrison, and Sophie try to help Zhalia up but they soon fall to the ground as well. Dante glances back to the others on the ground before he is punched in the face by one of the members.
"We will be taking her now." The man tells Dante as the other two walk over to Zhalia's unconscious body.
The men step over Dante and carry Zhalia away. They all wear grins and smirks of happiness on their faces as they watch Dante struggle to get off the ground. Dante tries and tries to get up to save Zhalia. He will not lose his love again.
"Zhalia... Let her go!" Dante whispers as he watches her disappear from his eyes. "No..."
He soon passes out as well. The members of the organization climb into the helicopter that arrives in front of Dante's house. They pile Zhalia into the helicopter as it starts to take off. They soon head towards their new area of hiding. Zhalia gets tired up by ropes and chains while in the helicopter. They soon arrive at the new headquarters of the organization where the new boss stands waiting for their prisoner to arrive.
