After that intense werewolf experience from Mr. Talbot, we have traveled to St. Petersberg so i can find some kind of a secret or something that will lead me to that organization involving Mr. Talbot's evil world domination!

CHAPTER THREE: the Romanov Secret

After that incident involving Mr. Talbot's werewolf form in Paris, I traveled with Joy and Sadness into a new location, St. Petersburg, Russia. It was snowing once we gotten here, but it was better than not having any good winter memories in my life. It is 1:00 PM at midnight in Russia, as we entered St. Petersburg; it was crowded with people who are celebrating Anastasia's birthday since her first reign in Paris, France. It was impressive to see that in Russia, as people were dancing, cooking, eating, and even talking about Anastasia's legend status. I entered the gateways to St. Petersburg as we hear some interesting music involving one of the secret messages in the song "There's a Rumor in St. Petersburg". I heard the message by reversing the music and it said:

Mr. Talbot is a loser, Jack Jones is better, and he will stop from taking Jack's corn sticks…

"WHO PUT STIKS IN MA CANDY KORN!" a person said in the crowd as I walked further.

I realized that it was a prank message in the reversed audio, pranking Talbot's pressure to take my corn sticks (corn dogs), and claiming that I am better than him. Ridiculous that it is just a prank message planted by Don Bluth himself. Not to be offensive to Don Bluth, but I think that he is a prankster in music like this, planting one of the most secretive messages I've ever heard. I still love Don Bluth and his work, but I still think that he changed some of the ideas like Mrs. Frisby's name to Mrs. Brisby, or Steven Spielberg making him removed 11 minutes of scenes in The Land Before Time is crazy, but that 11 minute cut is stupid in the first place, all because there was characters in danger, and it may traumatize children for life! What the heck Steven Spielberg! Why are you making Don Bluth removing those scenes after all that crew had created! They put their work into heart and soul on this picture, and that dude removed them because of Spielberg. It is probably Steven's fault despite that I still love him and works also. It doesn't mean I want of offend them at all; it is just a coincidence for me that a prank message was just planted on purpose by a great prankster in animation. I rest that case and I returned to my journey as I went on.

I took a look at the celebration, and from what I had just saw, it reminds me of Topsy Turvy from Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame, because of the dancing, singing, the king of fool celebrating, and some of the most magical special effects from a small gypsy girl, Esmeralda. She looks beautiful, but it is nothing compared to Joy on my side. I just had to check out that girl so I can talk with her, all because one of the people in the crowd told me that I must investigate a Romaov secret inside the old Romaov palace, the one that Rasputin broke in and started the Russian Revolution.

"Hey! Esmeralda! Over here!" I yelled loud as the music arose even more loudly.

Esmeralda saw me yelling at her and she knew that there is a detective on a case for a little secret. She came down and meets me in the backroom.

"Who are you?" Esmeralda said.

"I'm Jack Jones; do you know a little secret about the Romanovs?" I said.

"Yeah, how did you know?" She said.

"I heard about from a person in a crowd." I said in a perfect timing just as a crowd of horses ran into the trails of a village.

"Let me show you then." She said.

"I hope it is impressive." Joy said in an interested voice.

Esmeralda walked with me, Joy, and Sadness to her train and started the engines to the Romanov palace. The engines roared just as the train blow into oblivion in the minds of speed. It was too fast, the building was too far from where we are in the train.

"According to the documents, they said that the Romanovs were beheaded, but it never happened. Rasputin was drowned into the icy waters, after he was actually been shot, placed him the bag, and entered the icy waters. He survived at first, but when he was back to kill Anastasia, he drowned and was stuck in the limbo forever." Esmeralda said.

"Wow! Rasputin was actually Mr. Talbot in disguise, but he could not survive the icy waters, because it is too damn cold to survive in the cold winters." I said.

"Exactly!" Joy said.

"True, but Anastasia is not dead, neither her mother. They still are alive and survived the Russian Revolution in point blank, Rasputin will always be a fool to himself, and he will be forever." Esmeralda said.

The train finally stopped and we made it to the Romanov palace that I must visit.

"Good luck!" Esmeralda said.

I hope she does well in her talents, especially at Anastasia's celebration party.

The palace looks deserted and old since the Russian Revolution happened in 1917, in my inspection, I was sure that there was a broken piece of wood in the door frame. It must be because Anastasia (or Anya) broke into the palace's door by breaking the piece of wood the barricaded the door shut. That makes sense because I identified it with a gadget that involved the user interference that will identify anything, from fingerprints to any surface to make sure they will catch their suspect who would conduct a murder scene or an offensive type of crime, like rape. But this is for a mystery, not any crime scene!

As we entered, it was dark and I needed something that I could see in the dark, so I punched out my flashlight and turn it on. Now it is better without being in the damn dark. But from what I'm looking at now, it is so creepy because it's filled with spider webs, things moving without noticing, dust covering everything, and even more disturbing, there are ghosts in there whom are haunting the palace for a lot of years since the event happened in 1917.

This is pretty scary because I have never witnessed an event involving the deaths of each Romanov's, except Anastasia, her mother, and Dimitri. I would had made a time machine and gone back to 1917 to see that horrible chain of events. Joy and Sadness were so terrified, that they hold me behind while I was investigating.

Out of nowhere, there was a ghost touching me as I looked behind, I was so scared that I wanted to poop my pants out of fear! Even my 2 partners are so scared at that when I looked at it in its eyes.

"What are you doing, sir?" Sir Nicholas said in his ghostly voice.

"I went here just to investigate a secret from the Romanovs." I said in a terrified voice.

"Why? Are you trying to mess up my resting place?" Nicholas said as he worries.

"No, I need to know if Rasputin is really real, because I just got advice, full of his demise and survival documents." I said.

"Are you serious? Then let me show you all of my people." He said.

Then the whole room shook as if there was initially an earthquake is rising to a dangerous status, but then millions and millions of ghosts rises up to the glass ceiling.

My jaw began to drop farther and farther as I saw those ghosts coming to life, then the first ghost started to speak.

"I'm soo hungraaaaaaay!" One of the ghosts said in the background.

"Rasputin is a traitor!"

"Rasputin is no good for our souls!"

"Rasputin is in disguise as Mr. Talbot!"

"I will never forget that traitor!"

"I don't want him in my life!"

"That no-good two faced son of the bitch!"

All of those ghosts yelled those lines to me and my 2 partners as they were questioned with that answer that I asked.

But one of them shocked me the most… Rasputin is disguised… as that traitor himself… Mr. Lawrence Talbot… That was the same dude that turned himself into a werewolf!

It blew my mind on so many levels when I heard that… so this:

Mr. Talbot - Rasputin

Loading...

RASPUTIN IS DISGUISED AS MR. LAWRENCE TALBOT

It makes much more sense now, Rasputin is Mr. Lawrence Talbot! Someone please load up the DUN DUN DUN music to make this a whole lot of sense scenery, I am starting to overreact a lot over his true identity! CAN SOMEONE CALM ME DOWN BECAUSE I AM STARTING TO BE LIKE ROBERT LANGDON...?

Let's get back shall we…

"I must go see Anastasia right now!" I yelled.

I ran with Joy and Sadness to get into a car and drove to the celebration. People were running so they won't die from my inferno vehicle, cats and dogs were scared shitless and ran without warning, and I am crashing on wood and cardboard so much, that I can't see my own damn view and finally, I made it to the celebration.

"Anastasia! There's something you need to hear!" I yelled.

"Is it something urgent?" She said.

"Yeah! Rasputin is back! He is disguised as Mr. Lawrence Talbot!" I said.

"You're not kidding!" She said.

"Yes, I'm not kidding! I must get to a different location so I have to find that organization!" I said.

"Let me drive for you!" She said.

"I will drive as well!" I said.

"Let's get to New York!" Joy yelled.

All of them, including Anastasia entered the car and drove to the airport as they went into the road. But before were clear, there was a couple of police cars right behind up, urging us to stop the vehicle.

"This is the police! Stop the car immediately, or we'll shoot!" They shouted as we drove further.

But we did not want to stop the car, I just want to go to that damn airport, so I just don't give a damn to the police and we drove more and more far from the police. Then this happened without warning, they began to open fire on us as we drove fast away from the damn police.

"Oh god! Help me from the police!" I said loudly.

Then something even more happened, the police cars exploded without warning. I think God heard me from the heavens and helped me by blowing up the Russian police. Lucky for me!

"Thank you, lord." I said peacefully.

Back at the Russian police department, the speaker announced that they are not giving up and it required more police cars to make us surrounded by the police.

"LET'S GO! STOP THEM FOR GOING TO THE AIRPORT!" One of the policemen yelled.

They entered into the police cars and drove to the same road that I am on! Unbelievable!

"Finally! The airport!" I said in a hopeful tone.

The airport was in front of me and I got out of the car just as the police cars rushed into the airport. I rushed to the airport and dodged many people that are blocking the way to the airplane to New York!

The police cars then broke into the airport, the glass broke in and the structure were falling apart, blocking the other people that wanted to get to the airport.

"SURROUND OR DIE!" The policemen yelled.

"Oh shit!" I said just I was finally in the port to the airplane.

They started shooting at me and the rest, but Anastasia encouraged me to go further instead of following her.

"STOP YOU IDIOTS! I AM THE PRINCESS ANASTASIA!" She yelled at the policeman.

The policemen stop interruptedly as she yelled at them. We finally made it to the airplane that will lead us to New York City. I hope there is more crazy adventures for us because I find them exciting in order to solve that mystery.

For now, Joy, Sadness, and I rest in our seats as the airplane took off.
