(Bianca's pov)

-Hello?
-Oh hello, excuse me who're you?
-Is this Ekaterina Egorovna?
-No, i'm her manager. She's sleeping and told me to answer her calls for her.

I saw Elijah making faces for me to get the call to speaker. I did as he wanted.
-Could you please wake her up, this is an emergency call?
-Sorry but who are you?
-I'm Bianca Assano.
-Oh, i understand, i'll wake her up now.
We waited for a few seconds, after 1 minute, she said us:
-Sorry, but she didn't wake up. I don't want to disturb her.
I looked at Elijah whispering "this gal really turned out to be a conspirator"
-Thank you for your help.
I told and hunged up.
Elijah looked thoughtful.
-So, it's true. What can we do next? Should we go to the castle?
-Wait, is Serena alive there?
-Yes.
He looked sad. I walked closer to him and patted his back.
-Alright, don't be sad, we'll manage something. Can you tell me about us, i mean what is my role? What's yours? What will we do there?
-Oh, so, Artemis, you and Serena are sisters from Assano, Casper is a prince from Aldmor, he's Artemis's husband. Travis is a fake prince from Opis, he's Serena's husband.(i felt anger in his eyes while saying this) and i'm a prince from Gemdis. I'm your husband. But we all aren't married yet. So i'm your future husband.
He explained and grinned.
-What? Why should i marry you?
-It's the order of our kings. And we love each other in there. So you should act well. And the life there is so comfortable. There'll be some invitations. You should act like princess and be royal.
-I have a question. How come we can travel in dimensions but others can't?
-Everyone can but they don't know.
-Why did you chose me then? Couldn't you just pick another one?
-I could but i thought you're the closest one to Serena in the castle.
-How did you find me?
-I knew your face and i heard something from the people who wanted to kill you. If you work for illegal fight, you'll have a lot of enemies.
He said and rubbed his neck as if guilty.
I nodded to show that i understood and that's ok.
-And how about the others?
-Actually, we were friends with Casper and he found Artemis from his work.
-What do you all work?
-Actually, i was studying arts, but then i got interested in sports so, i'm a volleyball player. But we don't have matches often, only once or twice in a month, and they give me a lot of money for my fame, so i like it.  Casper's working as a barista. Artemis is a doctor. As i said before, he met her in the bar. They became very good friends and when Casper showed her to me, i understood she's Artemis Assano from the kingdom, after i explained the whole situation to them, they decided to help me.

I nodded silently. It all maked sense.
-But how did you understood the theory of interdimensional travelling?I asked it because that still doesn't sound convincing and logical to me.
- I understand it. You're right. If someone said "you can travel between dimensions" I would laugh with my ass. I found it by chance. But it's true.

  I didn't want to believe him but i needed to. They promised me a lot of money. (Yep, i'm greedy, any questions???)
- Your rival, what was her name?
-Ekaterina Egorovna.
-Yes, Egorovna knows about interdimensional travelling. She's dangerous. She can be relevant to Travis. 
But we can't be so sure. You need to learn more about her. Because if you do it, she won't get suspicious. Now, we need to go to castle. Everyone's waiting.
I nodded and looked at the pictures he gave me. I memorized them and did what he said. We both closed our eyes and travelled. I woke up in a bedroom which looked so elegant and expensive. Wow. I like it. I stood up and thought "why does this girl sleep until this hour?" Whatever, i looked at myself on the mirror, everything was the same, my hair, face and body. I was shocked. So it was not a stupid prank? It was the best day of my life. I slowly got out of the room and saw 2 guards in front of my door.
-Good morning, your majesty.
-Good morning.
-The maids are coming.
-Why?
-You ordered them to come and wash your hair.
'Weird' i thought. But it was good. Maids will wash my hair. I smiled and closed the door. After 5 minutes of waiting,maids were already here and filling the bathtub. Then i lyed inside of the bathtub and relaxed as the maids started to wash me. I closed my eyes and waited until they finished. After that, they helped me changing my clothes and got out. I sat on my bed and then it drawned on me that i'm here for a plan. I quickly stood up. Got out of the room and talked to the guards in a manner of princess:
-Get me a carriage.
-Your command princess.
They quickly went and i was following them. I got in it but then i remembered i didn't know where was them. I looked for my phone then remembered i don't have it here. I sighed and started to think.
Artemis was my sister. So that means, they were in my castle. I told the guard to wait and went back to the castle. I asked some guards where was Artemis and they told me she went to Aldmor. Then we started riding to Aldmor.

         *Meanwhile Elijah, Artemis and                                      Casper *
   
-Didn't you come with her?
-I did but she'll wake up in her castle not here? Did you forget?
-Nope. So, is she safe?
-Yes, there wasn't any danger. She was coming from a store. And we called that girl Ekaterina. She's really the one i saw.
-Alright. Can you try to find her again while we'll keep Serena safe until the ballroom dance?

Elijah nodded. Then the door knocked. A guard came in and said:
-Your majesty, Princess Bianca is here.
-Let her in.
He bowed and then Bianca came in. The guard closed the door.
-Sorry for being late. Is there something we're going to do now?
Casper replied:
-Actually we thought you're in danger so we sent him but there's not something to do for now. We just need to be closer to Serena.
-You told me i'll see someone dying in front of my eyes but nothing happened.
-We found a trick. If you travel with someone, nothing will happen.
Bianca nodded. They all stood up after a few moments. Artemis took Bianca's hand and smiled.
-You'll be ok don't worry. Let's go and talk to Serena as sisters. But don't forget, if someone understands something, it won't be good.
Artemis and Bianca slowly went to their castles.

But at that moment someone stopped breathing and no one knew who he was.  but that woman was the mother of the kid who Bianca helped to find.  The girl thought that her mother was asleep and laid a blanket over her.  maybe the kid didn't understand now, but she would definitely understand in the future.
