Chapter Six:

Piotr Romanov

Twelve Years Later

I stood to the side, watching as my sisters Anastasia, Alexandra and Anya joined hands and prepared themselves for using a locating chant to find Katya. They sat in a circle, joined hands and closed their eyes.

"We need to find our sister, the lost one.

Help us find her before a greater evil is done."

They chanted those words over and over again and I could see their magic mixing together, the different colors swirling together and moving out and up towards the sky. I've seen this happen several times before, but it still amazes me. Then, unlike the times before, it came to a sudden stop.

"What happened?"

Alexandra said, "Something stopped our magic. Almost like someone doesn't want us to find them."

"Well did you get a general location of where she is?"

"She's still in the United States along the west side of the country, but we don't know which state."

I sighed and said, "Well it's a start at least."

"Should we try again?" Anya asked.

"I wouldn't worry about it right now. You three need to rest. I know spells like that wear you out."

Katya Spirit

I opened up my eyes and sighed. I didn't know how long I have been in here but it felt like eons. I turned my head and Killan was still in the same position he was when he first got here.

"He won't wake unless you can get to him, love." Cyrus said.

"Why not?"

"True love's kiss. It can break any curse or spell."

"You really believe that?"

"Of course I do. Gotta believe in something otherwise life gets pretty boring, mate."

"The only thing I can believe in is my duaghter saving us."

"Wait. Can't you send her a dream or something?"

"Cyrus! You're a genius!"

Violet Frost

(Dream) Someone was arguing with a woman as I laid in bed. I coudn't hear him, but I knew that voice from somewhere.

"I know exactly who you are, who your ancestors were. Your family is quite famous. It's a shame young Willow here will never know her family's past."

I heard a crash and someone grab me. She ran with me in her arms. She seemed scared. She set me on the ground and vines reached up and grabbed me. (end)

When I opened my eyes, Operetta was standing above me, her hands on my upper arms.

"You alright, sugar? You were screamin'."

"Was I? Sorry. It must've been a bad dream."

Erik came running in, panting and asked, "Vi, are you okay?"

"Bad dream." I answered.

He nodded and left the room.

Operetta turned to me and asked, "What was it about?"

"I'm not entirely sure. I think it has to do with where I came from. I'll ask Erik in the mornin'."

"Okay. Goodnight, Vi."

"Night, 'Retta."

Dimitri Leafgreen

Twelve Years. The police gave up seven years ago. Even my parents told me to give up, but I wouldn't. I could never give up.

I now knew that I love Willow and when I found her, I'd kiss her. Unfortunately, I had no idea where to start looking.

I tried Mother Earth several times since the first time, but she still wouldn't tell me.

I needed to know she was alive and safe.

Violet Frost

I walked down the stairs and into the living room.

"Erik?"

"Yes, Violet?"

"Where did I come from?"

"I told you al-"

"I want to know who my parents are."

"Very well. I can only tell you so much. The rest, no one knows."

I sat down next to him and waited for him to start talking.

"When Operetta and I found you, you were wearing that necklace you are now. I took you to Dracula to see if he knew anything. On the back of the locket is the name 'Romanov' etched into it. Your great-great-grandmother is Anastasia Romanov."

"Wait. The Anastasia Romanov?"

He nodded and continued, "You're royalty. Dracula has no idea how you wound up in the States, as from what he knew Romanovs can't leave Russia. Violet, you're a witch. You should get your powers when you turn sixteen."

Just then, Operetta gasped.

"What, 'Retta?" I asked her.

"Your hair. It changed."

I ran to the bathroom and sure enough, I had blue, purple, green and orange streaks in my hair.

"It looks like you just got your powers." Erik said behind me.

I felt a sharp pain in my head and it spread out through my body. Then my vision went black.

Piotr Romanov

I walked around our palace, trying to find those triplet sisters of mine.

"Anastasia! Alexandra! Anya!" I called out.

"In here!" Anya answered.

I followed the sound into the music room.

"Any luck in finding Katya?"

"None at all."

I sighed and answered, "Why is she so hard to find?"

"We don't know."

"There must be a barrier spell or something." Anastasia suggested.

"Maybe, but why?"

"To prevent us from finding her and ruining their great evil plan?" Anya quietly added.

"Most likely, but who would take Katya?"
