Every night for the next month, Scarlet left to see her lover, Renook. However, the more she went out she started to stay out longer. Eventually, one day Scarlet did not come back and her sisters as well as Melody all started to worry about her. They didn't know where Scarlet was now and knew they had to find her.
"She couldn't have gone far, could she?" Melody asked
"I hope not." Sarah replied
"We'll have to fly and look for her" Winifred told them
Sarah looked to Mary and said "And try to smell her out."
"I can." Mary responded "I've lived with her long enough to know her scent easily."
Melody, Winifred, Sarah, and Mary all set out to look for where Scarlet had gone off to. It took them a little while, but they eventually found Scarlet. She was lying down with Renook in a forest clearing.
"Look, there's Scarlet!" Melody said
Sarah noticed Renook with Scarlet and said "Well, I never would have known this could happen."
"I never would believe it if I didn't see it." Mary responded "A man and a witch."
Winifred ignored them, for she was just happy to see Scarlet again. Immediately, she called out to Scarlet, who looked to her quickly. Quickly, Scarlet ran back to her sisters and greeted them with hugs.
"It's been a little while since we've seen you Scarlet." Mary said
"Actually, it's only been three days." Winifred told her
"I can see you're running with humans, Scarlet." Sarah pointed out
Scarlet held up her hand and showed a ruby ring on her finger.
"I'm actually engaged to him." Scarlet told them
"What do you mean, Scarlet?" Mary asked her
"She means, she is getting married." Winifred explained
"Oh, you're lucky Scarlet." Sarah said as she nudged her youngest sister on her shoulder
Scarlet smiled lightly and held her shoulder after Sarah nudged her.
"I should introduce you all now." Scarlet said and walked back over to Renook.
"This will be nice, I'm sure of it." Melody said and followed Scarlet
Shortly, Winifred, Sarah, and Mary all followed Scarlet as well.
Renook looked up them and noticed them and smiled, saying "I see you brought company Scarlet."
"Renook, these are my sisters and niece." Scarlet told him "This is Winifred, Sarah, Mary, and Melody."
"Well, it's nice to meet all of you." Renook responded
One by one they starting asking him several questions
"How did you find Scarlet?" Winifred asked
"How are treating her?" Mary added on
"Do you have friends you could introduce me to?" Sarah asked still a little jealous of Scarlet
"Woah, woah slow down everyone." Renook said trying to calm them all down "Yes, I do love Scarlet and yes I do have friends that are looking."
"Well, me and Mary aren't really looking at the moment." Winifred told him
"It's just silly Sarah over here." Mary added
Sarah rolled at her eyes at them and wanted to meet a possible lover immediately.
"Well, Sarah, you may like my friend Charlie then." Renook told her "He's been looking for a while too."
"Please introduce me soon." Sarah demanded
"Hold on though." Mary spoke up
"What is it?" Winifred asked
"Does this mean we lose Scarlet?" Mary asked
All three of the sisters went quiet. They all liked that Scarlet was happy, but none of them wanted her to leave. Scarlet had become a close sister to them and it would be weird to not have her around anymore.
"Not completely." Scarlet spoke up "Yes, I won't be living with you anymore, but I promise to still come by everyday."
"When will you leave us, Scarlet?" Sarah asked her and hugged her tight
"In a month." Scarlet told her
"Then we will need to make these last moments be the best." Winifred responded
"I would agree." Mary agreed
"Anything to keep Scarlet around longer."
For the next month, the Sandersons would do what they could to have a great day with Scarlet before it was time for her to leave them. However, the day did come and Scarlet was ready to go start her new life being a married woman. Before she left though, she approached Winifred.
"Well, Scarlet we will miss having you here." Winifred told her "I hope the best for you."
"You too, you gave me some of the best times of my life and I'm very greatful for that." Scarlet responded and gave her a light hug "There's something I must give you though."
Before Winifred knew it, Scarlet handed her spell book.
"Take care of it and remember me when you use it." Scarlet told her "I will see you soon.
Right then Scarlet had gave her sisters one last hug and left the cottage. All the sisters knew they would miss the younger witch. Winifred seemed to miss her the most now. She held Scarlet's spellbook close and for the first time in a long time, had tears coming down her face. It was a hard change for all of them, but they all would have to do so. However, with this change to sadness a miracle was soon to happen.
