The News Delivered
When Jade got home to the Embassy of Satu, she noticed her mother, father, and the household servants had everything they owned loaded either in trunks and suitcases or on the flying coach.
"What's going on, Dad? Why are the servants taking all of our belongings?" Jade asked.
"For ambassador work, your mother and I have been sent to the Kingdom of Wuton near Satu," Liang answered Jade. "and you and the embassy staff are coming with us."
Within Jade's memory, she climbed onto Skywind's able bare back, she knew he didn't like being tacked up.
Skywind caught up with the flying coach from Enchancia Castle where James, Amber, Dorrie, Candice, Lucinda, Timothy, Amy, and Sofia were riding to their respective schools.
"Jade," Amber asked. "shouldn't you have riding clothes on if you are on horseback?"
"Skywind is taking me to school, Amber, Sofia and I don't have practice today." Jade answered.
"I see." Amber said.
Jade could hear Timothy sighing, this sigh sounded melancholy instead of sleepy.
"Anything wrong, Timothy? Did you and Sam get into a fight?" Jade asked.
"If only it was that simple, Jade." Timothy answered with a melancholy sigh.
"What is it then?" Jade asked Timothy.
"I had a premonition in my sleep last night, Jade," Timothy answered. "and it was about you and your family."
"I already know that I'm a princess, Timothy!" Jade laughed.
"All I can say is," Timothy sighed. "that Enchancia won't be the same without you, Jade."
Jade then came out of her memory.
"So that's what Timothy's premonition must have meant," Jade exclaimed. "we will be moving to a new kingdom! How exciting!"
Jade started running out of the empty embassy mansion.
"Jade, slow down!" Emma called.
Jade stopped and turned to face her mother.
"What is it, Mom?" Jade asked.
"Where are you going?" Emma demanded to know.
"Just over to the Hanshaw residence," Jade answered Emma. "to tell Ruby about my move!"
"Okay," Emma said to Jade. "just don't stay too long."
"That's right," Liang said to Jade in agreement with Emma. "our ship departs for Wuton at sundown."
"I won't be late, I promise." Jade told her parents.
Jade then raced off for the Hanshaw residence in the Village of Dunwitty.
When Jade got to the Hanshaw residence, she found Helen working in the garden.
"Good afternoon, Missis Hanshaw." Jade said.
"Good afternoon, Jade." Helen said.
Jade just looked around for Ruby.
"Where's Ruby?" Jade asked Helen.
"She went with Kate and Lucinda for tea by the lake." Helen answered Jade.
"Thank you." Jade said to Helen.
"You're welcome, Jade." Helen replied.
Jade then raced off to the lake to tell Ruby and Lucinda her exciting news.
