As Fear across spread across Grace Kingdom, smoke did too. Places we're burning especially the castle.

"Don! Don?!" Gilda shouted as she hurried out of the Castle.

Some ran in fear for their family and friends.

"Its going to be okay Zack." Oliver patted his shoulder.

Some ran in fear to hide.

"I need to find Emma and Father. I can smell something burning." Norman walked forward.

And some didn't run at all.

"RAY?!" Anna slowly turned around.
When Ray realised the chandelier was going to fall it was too late, Ray was going to be smashed by it either way.

She collapsed to her knees and started digging at the jewels and diamonds that hung from the Chandelier.

It's going to be alright.
He saved me.
Heros always live another day to save and win in another battle. That's what Nat's Papa always told us.
I can't give up.
He's okay.

Then she heard footsteps approaching her.

Who's there?

I need to hide, but I can't leave Prince Ray, I don't even know if he is alive.

Out of impulse Anna crept over to a couch split in half with fluff pouring out of it to hide.

"No one seems to be here. Check around. We need both Prince Ray and Prince Norman." She heard male voices communicate.

And then they left.

They're gone, now I need to get back to Ray.

Anna bit her lip.

But I obviously can not break through all of that jewels. I need to get help.

She started to exit the common area with her heart pounding.

And then she stopped, and stared in front of her.

Prince Norman started running outside the hallways, he couldn't see Emma and it seemed like all of the Royal Service had escaped or fled for them selves.

Then he came to his room.

It wasn't on fire, but it sure was destroyed.

Someone had been here.

Or, still was there.

Maybe they were looking for something and someone.

He noticed his Mother's journal was there too.
What were they doing with his things?

"Norman, I found you!" Barbra skipped forward with a bright smile on her face.

"So it was true..." Prince Norman whispered.

"What do you mean?" Barbra asked.

"You didn't come that last time to see how I was doing...it was to get ready and attack, right?" Norman quietly said.

"Well...yes, but look we're going to go back home now! We can go home together and I can teach you how to ride a horse!" Barbra grinned.

"But I like it here."

"Look what they're doing to you Norman. Look at Your palms, they're bruised! We can take you home." Barbra held his hand and looked into his eyes.

"That's..." Norman started.
