Braedey Martin stumbles across an interesting book in a library. After buying it, he ends up transported IN the book, becoming part of the story, to help the orphaned amnesiac Anya find her family, the dark sorcerer Rasputin planning to end the Roma...
Back in St. Petersburg, Braedey and Vlad were both still trying to find anything regarding Anastasia or any sign of where she could be. However, there was no luck in finding anything regarding the lost princess. It was so frustrating to them. They felt like they were close, but it seems that the opportunity was slipping through their fingers, and they need to find anything.
"We'll find her, Vlad. She's out there somewhere, right under our noses." Braedey insisted to Vlad, as they were walking back to the old palace after they had collected some food to eat later. Braedey pulled out a small emerald green and gold music box, the very same one that Anastasia had 10 years ago. "Don't forget; one look at this, and the Empress will know we got THE Anastasia..."
"I'm looking for the Catherine..." Anya spoke to a stranger, accidentally bumping into Braedey. "Excuse me." She apologised, then she turned to the stranger. "The Catherine Palace. Do you know where that is?" She asked.
"There's nothing there. No, no there's no one living there, go on." The stranger scoffed, and he walked away.
All the while, Anya looks back, seeing the two figures walking away, which got her attention, making her think about what they were talking about, so she began to follow on, the little dog and black stallion also following on after her.

Eventually, the two arrived at the Catherine Palace, the silence around the area. Anya and the little dog walked their way towards the main building, while the black stallion stood by. Anya and the little dog looked about to try and find their way into the old building, the black stallion now trotting away into the forest. The others were going there as well as it seemed to had been locked up and nearly abandoned. Pooka whimpered and decided to go inside the boarded door.
"Pooka!" Anya called after her new friend, peeking on through the wooden boards blocking the door. "Pooka! Pooka, where are you?" Now unable to find him anymore, Anya took the boards off, to find it was surprisingly easy to do so, but she fell back on the ground.

Braedey, meanwhile, was reading through some old and new newspapers, trying to locate anything that might be able to help find any location as to where the lost princess Anastasia could be. But, as he does so, his sense of hearing picked up and heard the faint sound of splintering wood coming from outside, now getting his attention. He looked over to Vlad, who had his back turned, since he was making some tea for the two of them, so he opted to go and take a look at what made the sound.
