Anastasia reunites with her parents and siblings.

1. A Heart of Gold

You had a heart of gold- Shawn Mendes, Heart of Gold

Emma's p.o.v

You were a real-life teddy bear

and yet a broken diamond in the

rough. You had a heart of gold

that lived beyond me. Nobody

cared enough to shield you like a

child away from a bloody field

of Vultures. They lied when they

told you that the world wouldn't

misuse you or abuse you. They lied

when they told you that old age

was on your side. You caught a

ride over to the other side without

me. I never wanted you

to fade away before your time.

I didn't have a strong grip on your body

just like that lovely unsung

melody in your soul. You had a heart

of gold that lived beyond me.
