Chapter 2: A Day in October
October 23, 1871
It was a Monday morning at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the hospital wing of the school, Doctor Steven McFinch of the nearby Hogsmeade Medical College was making medical rounds with a group of students from the college. Among the students was eighteen-year-old Ruby who was starting her first year at the Hogsmeade Medical College. As Doctor McFinch and the students with him were making the rounds of the hospital wing, Ruby noticed a familiar twelve-year-old girl laying in one of the beds.
"Cayley?" Ruby smiled. "Cayley Vanoor?"
"Ruby?" Cayley responded. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm going to school at the Hogsmeade Medical College," Ruby answered.
"You know this girl, Miss Hanshaw?" Doctor McFinch asked Ruby.
"Indeed I do," Ruby happily admitted. "Cayley and I come from the same village in Enchancia."
At that moment, a nurse from the hospital wing walked up. "Miss Vanoor here is suffering from a mild cold. I was just about to give her some Hanugrin Elixir."
"Could you please explain to my students why you are not using Pepperup Potion?" Doctor McFinch wanted to know.
"Of course, Doctor," the nurse agreed as she turned to the students. "Miss Vanoor is suffering from a mild cold. Pepperup Potion would be too strong in this case. We don't want the poor girl to have steam shooting from her ears. In this case, Hanugrin Elixir will do the job nicely without making the patient uncomfortable."
"Well explained, nurse," Doctor McFinch praised. "Would you mind if Miss Hanshaw here gave your patient the Hanugrin Elixir, considering they know each other?"
"That's fine by me," the nurse happily agreed as she handed Ruby a small bottle and a tablespoon.
"Do you know the correct dosage for Hanugrin Elixir?" Doctor McFinch asked Ruby.
"Yes, sir," Ruby said with confidence. "Hanugrin Elixir is well used in Enchancia. I had to take it a few times when I was growing up."
"Then proceed," Doctor McFinch instructed.
"Cayley," Ruby gently started. "You'll need to take two tablespoons of this."
"I hate medicine," Cayley said under her breath.
"I see you've never had Hanugrin Elixir," Ruby smiled. "It tastes like blueberries."
"Okay," Cayley agreed as Ruby gave Cayley the first tablespoon. "Hey! That's not bad!"
"Told you," Ruby happily said as she gently tickled Cayley under the chin. "Now, for the second tablespoon."
Cayley took the second tablespoon, then laid down in the bed. "Now what?"
"The elixir will make you sleepy in a few minutes," Ruby gently explained. "I'll hold your hand while it takes effect."
In a few minutes, Cayley fell asleep as Ruby gently kissed Cayley on the forehead. "Sleep well, sweetheart."
"Students," Doctor McFinch said in a quiet voice as to not wake up Cayley. "Miss Hanshaw just showed us a textbook example of a wonderful bedside manner. I can see Miss Hanshaw becoming an excellent doctor one day."
Ruby smiled in gratitude at Doctor McFinch's praise.
Meanwhile, at Enchancia Castle
In the Enchancia Castle sitting room, eighteen-year-old Lucinda was entertaining a woman guest. The woman was none other than Gretel of the brother and sister evil witch-hunting team Hansel and Gretel. As the two talked, eighteen-year-old Abby Murphy (one of the maids at the castle) served coffee to the two.
"So, what was it like for you growing up?" Lucinda asked Gretel.
"Hansel and I were raised for a while by my father and stepmother. She was okay most of the time," Gretel replied. "One time when I was seven or eight and I think Hansel was eleven there was a famine and my stepmother decided Hansel and I were to be abandoned in the woods."
"Was it scary?" Lucinda asked Gretel.
"A little bit but Hansel had some pebbles in his pocket, and he used them to make a path home. His pocket wasn't very big yet somehow he fit enough in there to make the path," Gretel revealed. "It took all night to walk home."
"I probably would have been scared," Lucinda admitted.
"The scary part was less than a year later when another famine kicked in," Gretel continued. "I was eight or nine by then and Hansel twelve. This time we were taken even farther into the woods. Hansel tried to make a breadcrumb path but the birds ate it. After a few days of walking, we came across a house of gingerbread owned by a witch."
"Did she feed you and take you home?" Lucinda wanted to know.
"She fed us and the next morning she locked Hansel in a cage and made me cook him these nice meals. The thing is she wasn't very smart," Gretel answered.
"What makes you say that?" Lucinda asked Gretel.
"For one thing after she locked Hansel in the cage she woke me up and had me cook him something to eat since she was going to fatten him up and eat him."
Lucinda shuddered.
"She couldn't even tell the difference between a bone and his finger when she would ask him to stick out a finger so she could see if he was fat enough to eat," Gretel pointed out. "Finally, after several days maybe even a month she decided enough was enough - it was time to cook him. She wanted bread with him, and I was supposed to climb into the oven to see if it was hot enough."
"What would have kept her from closing the door on you and cooking you?" Lucinda asked, curious.
"That was her intention. She didn't tell me but somehow, I sensed it," Gretel revealed. "As I said before she wasn't very smart because she stuck her head in and I somehow managed to shove her into the oven," Gretel replied. "The nice thing is while the water was boiling to cook Hansel, he wasn't in it at that point. We both got away with all sorts of precious gems and pearls that she somehow concealed in her house. If she had really wanted to eat me, I'm willing to bet she could have without trying to trick me. Hansel and I eventually found our way home and by then our stepmother had died."
"The day she tried to cook you and Hansel did you even know she was going to cook him?" Lucinda asked.
"Yeah, I knew. She told me the night before," Gretel acknowledged. "And, that brings me to why I'm here today. You and I both know there is evil in the world. And I've been hearing rumors that a group of evil witches is up to something."
"Surely not!" Lucinda gasped.
"And at the same time, some children have gone missing," Gretel informed Lucinda. "This is starting to sound like what Hansel and I encountered in the Village of Augsburg."
"Ah, yes," Lucinda acknowledged. "That stuff involving the Blood Moon."
"Something is definitely going on," Gretel admitted. "You should tell Sofia as soon as possible."
"I will," Lucinda promised.
"And I'll tell Dorrie," Abby added. "Between the five of us, we'll find out what's going on."
Away from Enchancia Castle
On the remains of the ancient Elvin community of Rivendell, eighteen-year-old Candice was standing looking out into the harbor. Standing next to her was Candice's white cat, Creamy. Candice was taking part in an archaeological dig of the community along with Everett, Everett's uncle, and a small archaeological team. As Candice and Creamy looked out into the harbor, Candice remembered a historical event connected to the harbor which took place countless centuries earlier.
Flashback:
On the shore of Rivendell, Hobbits Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin stood with Gandalf the wizard. The Elves of Rivendell were departing Middle Earth aboard a boat and were taking some special guests with them, including Gandalf.
"Farewell, my brave Hobbits," Gandalf started. "My work is now finished. Here at last, on the shores of the sea, comes the end of our Fellowship. I will not say, do not weep, for not all tears are an evil. It is time, Frodo."
Froda stepped forward to the shock of Sam, Merry, and Pippin.
"What does he mean?" Sam asked Frodo, puzzled.
"We set out to save the Shire, Sam. And it has been saved. But not for me," Frodo quietly explained.
"You don't mean that. You can't leave!" Sam pleaded with Frodo as Frodo handed a bound notebook to Sam.
"The last pages are for you, Sam," Frodo started. "My dear Sam, you cannot always be torn in two. You will have to be one and whole for many years. You have so much to enjoy and to be, and to do. Your part in this story will go on."
Frodo embraced Merry and Pippin, then turned to Sam. Frodo and Sam embraced for the longest time, each knowing they would not see each other again. Frodo and Galdalf then boarded the boat. The boat then left from the shore. Merry, Pippin, and Sam watched sadly as the boat slowly sailed away. Merry and Pippin started to walk away, but Sam stayed for a minute longer to watch the boat slowly disappear over the horizon.
End of flashback, and back to the present.
"Candice?" a man's voice called out. Candice turned around to see Everett's uncle (Professor Markus Lowe) standing there.
"Professor Lowe," Candice acknowledged with a smile. "I didn't see you there."
"Lost in thought, I see," Professor Lowe smiled back. "You wouldn't be the first to think back to when the Elves left Rivendell and Middle Earth. That piece of history attracts many a visitor to what is left of this community."
"It's such a touching moment in history," Candice recalled. "Such emotion attached to it."
"Indeed," Lowe agreed. "Watching it was quite stirring."
"Watching it?" Candice asked, puzzled. "You talk like you were there."
"I was," Lowe revealed as he pulled out a silver Omni from his pocket. "An advantage of being a Voyager field historian."
"Well, I'll be," Candice remarked, impressed.
"You were there as well," Lowe smiled. "You and Creamy were watching from a building above the harbor. I was watching from another building on the other side of the harbor."
"Does Everett know you're a Voyager?" Candice wanted to know.
"No," Lowe answered, "but he will eventually. I thought it was time to reveal my true identity to you."
"I appreciate that," Candice acknowledged in awe. "I never would have suspected."
"The mark of a good Voyager," Lowe winked. "But I don't have to tell you that, do I."
"No," Candice smiled. "Always walk in the past leaving as little of a footprint as possible."
At that moment, Candice and Lowe noticed a man in his 20s walking up. "Excuse me, Professor," the man started. "The group from Yensid is here."
"I'll be there shortly," Lowe acknowledged as the man walked away.
"Yensid?" Candice asked, curious.
"Yes," Lowe confirmed. "The Kingdom of Yensid is sponsoring this dig."
In a few minutes, Lowe, Candice, and Creamy walked up to where the group was gathered. As Lowe greeted the group, Candice noticed a familiar face hanging back from the group - eighteen-year-old Princess Dianna of Yensid.
"Dianna," Candice smiled.
"Candice," Dianna smiled back. "It's nice seeing you here. I didn't know you were involved in the operation here?"
"I love Middle Earth history," Candice explained. "When this opportunity came up, I couldn't pass it up."
"Princess Dianna," a man from the group called out.
"Duty calls," Dianna quietly said to Candice. "I'm nervous around crowds. But, I have to do what I have to do."
Dianna took a deep breath and walked over to the crowd.
"Princess Dianna, this is Professor Markus Lowe," the man began. "Professor Lowe, this is Princess Dianna of Yensid."
"It is an honor to meet you, Princess Diana," Lowe said as he bowed.
"The honor is mine," Dianna acknowledged as she curtsied.
"If all of you will follow me, I'll give you a tour of Rivendell," Lowe said to the group gathered.
As everybody walked, Candice gently came up beside Dianna.
"You're getting over being nervous around crowds," Candice praised.
"Not exactly," Dianna confessed. "But I am getting better about dealing with it."
Back at Enchancia Castle
Eighteen-year-old Sofia was in her room talking to Clover, Whatnaught, Robin, Mia, as well as her Mexicali Spotted Owl, Hector. As she was talking, a knock came at the door.
"Come in," Sofia invited.
The door opened and in walked Baileywick. "Sorry for the interruption, Princess Sofia," Baileywick apologized. "Princess Lucinda would like to see you before supper tonight."
"I'll be sure to do that," Sofia promised.
"There's also a letter for you from High Hope Dance Academy," Baileywick revealed as he handed an envelope to Sofia who opened the envelope.
"This is more than I was expecting," Sofia smiled as she read the letter that was inside. "I was hoping for admission into High Hope Dance Academy. But, this is even better. Not only has Dame Skyla permitted me to attend starting in September, but she's also giving me a full scholarship."
"That's wonderful news, Princess Sofia," Baileywick said in joy. "I'll leave you with your friends. Enjoy your day."
As Baileywick left Sofia's room, Clover turned to Sofia. "So, I guess this means you'll be leaving in September?"
"Yes, Clover," Sofia confirmed. "I've always loved dancing, and now I get to go to a special school for it."
"Well, I think it's wonderful," Robin smiled.
"Still, the castle won't be the same without you, Sofia," Mia remarked.
"It's not like I'll be gone forever," Sofia said in a reassuring voice. "I'll be home for holidays."
"So, Sof," Clover started. "Is it true you won't be the only one going off for specialty schooling?"
"That would be correct," Sofia answered. "Prince Frederick will be starting Hogsmeade Medical College in September to start his training as a doctor. At that same time, Dorrie, Candice, as well as Princess Dianna of Yensid, will be attending Hogsmeade Medical College to get their official midwife/nurse certifications."
"I like Princess Dianna," Hector commented. "A bit nervous around crowds, though."
"Dianna has high-functioning autism," Sofia explained. "Intellectually, she's like everybody else. But, her autism causes her to be nervous around crowds. Dianna, however, is working to get over her nervousness. She's getting there, little by little."
"She'll be in tip-top shape before September, I just know it," Clover said in confidence.
Sofia smiled as she petted Clover for his kind remark.
Early that evening
At Enchancia Castle, in King Roland and Queen Miranda's quarters, Miranda was at a writing desk writing in her diary.
Queen Miranda personal diary entry: October 23, 1871.
Trouble has raised it's ugly head again. This time, a group of evil witches is said to be planning something. At the same time, some children have disappeared. If the two things are connected remains to be seen. Rollie, Sofia, Lucinda, Dorrie, Abby, Queen Scarlett, Princess Faith, and Lady Colette are meeting as I write this. Afterward, they will be in the dining hall for a relaxing supper.
I look forward to tonight's supper. Lydia, my eldest daughter, will be with us along with her husband (King Graham of Lacorinth) and their eldest daughter (Princess Emily). It will be nice seeing Lydia again. I'm so proud of the woman she's become - Queen of Lacorinth, Royal Sorceress of Lacorinth, and a mother not only to Emily but also to her recently born son (Prince Jesse). Jesse is still too young to travel, so he'll be staying behind at Lacorinth Castle in the care of servants who love him very much.
In a conference room in the castle, Roland was meeting with Sofia, Lucinda, Dorrie, Abby, Scarlett, Faith, and Colette.
"So, let me understand this," Roland began. "According to Gretel, a group of evil witches are up to no good. At the same time, some children are missing."
"That would be correct, Dad," Lucinda confirmed.
"We have to assume the two are connected," Roland theorized.
"I was thinking the same thing, Dad," Sofia agreed.
"As the Royal Sorceresses of Enchancia, you and Lucinda should start an investigation," Roland suggested to Sofia.
"We'll get on it first thing tomorrow," Sofia confirmed.
"With your permission, King Roland," Dorrie started, "Abby and I know a number of Candice's contacts. We can speak to them, and see if they've heard anything."
"Good thinking," Roland approved. "While Sofia and Lucinda are doing their investigation, you and Abby speak to Candice's contacts. The more information we have, the better."
"Yes, Sir," Dorrie and Abby acknowledged.
At that moment, Queen Scarlett (the warrior queen of Cinnibar) stepped forward. Queen Scarlett looked like a normal woman but was in fact immortal.
"I've lived a long time, and I've seen things like this before," Scarlett started. "The taking of children from the Village of Augsburg, and children disappearing from Salem. And always, evil witches are involved."
Queen Scarlett's adopted daughter, Faith, then stepped forward. Faith looked like a twelve-year-old girl but was immortal like Scarlett.
"If it would help, I can put Crimson Force on this," Faith offered. "The more eyes we have, the better our chances of finding out what is going on."
"Sounds like a plan, Princess Faith," Roland agreed. "And I'll have Colonel Martinsen use the resources of Enchancian Intelligence to look into this as well."
"It would appear we are well covered," Scarlett commented.
"Then I suggest we go to the royal dining room," Roland announced. "I'm told a fine supper awaits."
As everybody walked out of the conference room, Lady Colette (the Royal Steward of Cinnibar) walked beside Dorrie.
"It's nice having you here, Aunt Colette," Dorrie smiled.
"And it's nice being here," Colette smiled back. "But, where is Candice?"
"In Rivendell on an archaeological dig with Everett and his uncle," Dorrie explained.
"I know how much Candice loves Middle Earth history," Colette acknowledged, pleased. "Plus, this gives her time with Everett. They love each other very much, as much as you and Frederick love each other."
"How are you and Simon doing?" Dorrie wanted to know.
"We're doing okay, considering the circumstances of me now being immortal," Colette answered as she thought back to 1868 and an attack on Scarlett's palace by Neila's forces.
Flashback:
It was a late Thursday night in the capital city of Cinnibar. As Scarlett slept in her chambers in her palace, she was jolted awake by an explosion in the city. She raced out into the hall where a male guard quickly approached.
"What's going on?!" Scarlett demanded to know.
"Some kind of explosion at storage building number four, my Queen," the guard responded. "The guards in that area are investigating."
"I'll be in the situation room in a few minutes," Scarlett announced. "Send all reports there."
"Yes, my Queen," the guard acknowledged.
In a few minutes, Scarlett arrived in the situation room in the palace. Already there were Colette, Simon, Faith, Hematite, Constance, and Zahida.
"We're expecting an updated report any moment, Scarlett," Colette reported.
A male guard raced into the situation room and handed a piece of paper to Colette.
"This isn't good," Colette reacted as she read the paper. "Neila and a large group of her followers are raiding storage building number four."
"Slark!" Scarlett yelled in anger. "That swamp hag has a lot of nerve showing her ugly face here!"
"Orders, my Queen?" the guard requested.
"Have our forces repel the raid," Scarlett ordered. "Colette, Simon, Faith, Hematite, Constance, Zahida, and I will be there shortly."
"Understood, my Queen," the guard acknowledged as he raced out of the room.
In a short while, Scarlett and her band arrived at storage building number four. There was a huge hole in the side of the building, and Scarlett's guards were fighting a large group of Neila's followers.
"Simon, get your pistol out," Scarlett ordered. "For the rest of you, get your wands out."
The group raced up to where the fighting was taking place. Simon fired his pistol at the invading force, as everybody else in the group fired their wands at the invading force. Several in the invading force fell over, injured. At one point, Neila appeared, as Simon pointed his pistol at her, and shot Neila in the arm.
"Retreat!" Neila ordered her followers.
Neila and what was left of her followers high tailed it out of the area on their brooms.
"Well, that appears to be that," Colette observed.
An injured woman who had been part of Neila's force suddenly raised her wand and aimed it at Simon.
"Shoot my leader, will ya?!" the woman spat as she fired a magical blast at Simon. "Avada Kedavra."
"No!" Colette exclaimed in fear as she raced in front of Simon, and took the blast meant for Simon.
Constance raised her wand, and shot the woman unconscious, as Colette fell to the ground. Scarlett raced over to Colette and checked Colette over.
"My God!" Scarlett cried out. "Colette is ... dead."
"It can't be," Simon sadly said as he started sobbing over Colette's body. "That shot was meant for me."
Everybody looked at the scene with deep sadness.
"Mom," Faith quietly said to Scarlett. "I can bring her back, but I wouldn't dream of doing it without your permission."
"The Resurrection Gauntlet?" Scarlett asked.
"Yes," Faith answered. "But understand this - Colette will become immortal if I use the Resurrection Gauntlet on her."
Scarlett spent a few moments going over the pros and cons in her head. Scarlett then turned back to Faith. "Do it."
Faith brought out the Resurrection Gauntlet from a backpack she was wearing and put it on her hand. Faith then knelt over Colette's body and touched Colette with the Resurrection Gauntlet. Suddenly, Colette came back to life.
As Colette stood up, breathing heavily, her vision adjusted, only to find that it was blurry. Confused, she then took off her glasses and found that everything was clear. She then put her glasses back up to her eyes to see it was blurry again.
"That's odd," Colette said as she pocketed her glasses. "I don't seem to need them anymore."
"You're alive!" Simon said in joy as he hugged Colette.
"Was I ... dead?" Colette asked Scarlett, puzzled.
"Yes, old friend," Scarlett quietly acknowledged.
"You used the Resurrection Gauntlet on me?" Colette wanted to know.
"We had no choice," Scarlett responded.
End of flashback, and back to the present.
"Aunt Colette?" Dorrie asked.
"I was lost in thought for a second," Colette apologized. "Simon and I will be fine. I'll live beyond him, but we've come to terms with that."
"Enjoy the journey while you're on it," Dorrie recommended. "Something a friend of mine told me once."
In a few moments, everybody entered the royal dining hall where Queen Miranda, Amber, James, King Graham, Queen Lydia, Eric Androcasia (King Roland's royal lawyer), and Violet were already gathered. Also, there was Graham and Lydia's adopted daughter (five-year-old Princess Emily) and Scarlett's younger daughter (five-year-old Princess Skylar). As Dorrie and Abby joined Violet to start serving duties at the royal table, Miranda happily played with Emily and Skylar as everybody smiled at the touching scene.
"Lydia, Graham, Scarlett," Miranda smiled. "Emily and Skylar are becoming two fine young ladies. They do you proud."
"Thank you, Mom," Lydia responded, pleased.
"Thank you, Miranda," Scarlett responded, touched.
As everybody sat down at the table, and Violet, Dorrie, and Abby started serving those at the table, Sofia found herself seated next to Lydia.
"I suppose you and Lucinda being the Royal Sorceresses of Enchancia keep the two of you quite busy?" Lydia asked Sofia.
"Yes," Sofia acknowledged. "But, it's a good busy."
"I'm so proud of the women you and Lucinda have become," Lydia said to Sofia with pride. "You really make a big sister quite proud."
Sofia and Lucinda smiled at Lydia's praise.
As everybody at the table started eating, Roland turned to Eric. "How is your daughter, Valentina, doing?"
"She's doing well, King Roland," Eric announced. "She and her husband are settling in nicely as students at the Enchancia Law University in Ramblingham. I hear that Valentina appointed Lily MacRaven to be Deputy Royal Historian. How is Lily working out, sir?"
"Lily is a fine Deputy Royal Historian," Roland praised. "She's as talented a historian as Valentina is. While Valentina is away at university, the office of Royal Historian is in good hands."
"Valentina will be pleased to hear that, King Roland," Eric said, pleased. "I'll let her know the next time I write to her."
Everybody at the table had a wonderful time enjoying a fine meal and having an enjoyable conversation. Meanwhile, in a forest far away from Enchancia Castle, two evil witches walked around in an underground chamber. In a few moments, the two came across a large cell that was holding twelve children. The children backed up in fear of the two witches.
"Soon," one of the witches smiled at the other. "Soon, these children will give our mistress and the rest of us what we've been waiting for."
(To be continued in Chapter 3).
Behind the scenes
My fan fiction characters Dorrie and Candice now have their own Twitter page. On Twitter, do a search for DorrieCandice. Come join the fun.
Meanwhile, since "Ever Realm Chronicles" is a rewritten version of my story "Enchancia Castle", I thought I'd tell you what is planned for "Ever Realm Chronicles". Major plots seen in "Enchancia Castle" will make their way into "Ever Realm Chronicles". Kari and Gatomon from "Digimon" will appear in "Ever Realm Chronicles" as they did in "Enchancia Castle", but I'll be changing Kari's name from Kari to her original Japanese name of Hikari to avoid confusion with Princess Kari later introduced in "Sofia the First". As in "Enchancia Castle", the Princess Ivy plot will also appear in "Ever Realm Chronicles". The Master from "Doctor Who" will also appear in "Ever Realm Chronicles" as he did in "Enchancia Castle" (although this time, I'm toying with the idea of using the current Master from the Jodie Whittaker episodes of "Doctor Who"). Dorrie will marry Frederick and Candice will marry Everett as originally seen in "Enchancia Castle", and Bethany and Louise will come in as Violet's newly adopted daughters as they did in "Enchancia Castle".
There will be new things in "Ever Realm Chronicles" as well. The current plot with evil witches taking children is the first of these new things. The castle kids (Calista, Angry, Red, Elizabeth, Marie, and Timothy) along with Samantha "Sam" Cook who all appeared in my story "Once Upon a Time in Enchancia" will now also appear in "Ever Realm Chronicles" at some point. Look for the Ruth Doctor from "Doctor Who" to show up at some point (as she did in "Once Upon a Time in Enchancia"). Speaking of "Doctor Who", now that current companions Graham and Ryan have left, look for them to appear in "Ever Realm Chronicles" at some point.
In other "Ever Realm Chronicles" news, look for Sofia and company to use their Protector Enchantlets in battle.
