Though the park is empty, Amanda and her team decide to look there anyway so they can look for some clues. "This is where you were with your friends earlier, Amanda?" Asked Jiminy. "Yes, while my husband and his friends were at work. My siblings were pretty busy themselves as they attended a meeting with the Council of Crowns." Said Amanda.
"Council of Crowns?" Asked Fallon. "Ten crowns, working together to spread good and protect one another." Amanda said. "I like that. And you said King Derek and Queen Odette attend meetings there?" Asked Liam. "Yeah, they have been since they were crowned." Said Amanda.
"King Derek and Queen Odette? Who are they?" Jiminy asked. "Oh sorry, they're my siblings. Odette being my sister, and Derek's my brother in-law. As you heard, they were crowned a year ago." Amanda said. "That's wonderful!" Said Jiminy.
The sound of a crunch occurs, and the others look down to see what made the noise. It was a large piece of paper. Liam picks it up. "What's that?" Fallon asked. "I don't know, but I see a bunch of weird shapes." Liam said. "Let me see... those shapes just so happen to be the United States of America! Liam, my friend, you found a map!" Said Amanda. "I did? I did! I need to do more traveling, mainly because I've been going back and forth from Cordonia to Monterre." Said Liam.
"Monterre?" Amanda asked. "It's not far from us, and we recently formed an alliance with them." Said Fallon. "My husband and I recently protected the princess of Monterre." Said Amanda. "Juliet?" Liam asked. "You know her too?" Amanda asked. "Sure, she drops by our kingdom every now and then." Fallon said. Amanda smiles. "Wow!" She said.
Liam studies the map a little more. "Girls, look at this." He said. The girls and Jiminy look at the map too. "Some of the states have red dots on them. What do you think that means?" Asked Fallon. "Let's see, there's one on California, Florida, Idaho, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Texas. Wait a minute!" Said Amanda with realization.
"Sounds like you're on to something, princess." Jiminy said. "That must mean my friends and family members are in those states!" Amanda said. "Nine states, nine people... that makes perfect sense." Said Liam. "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go save your folks!" Fallon said with a smile.
"But how are we gonna get to all those states in just a few minutes?" Asked Amanda. "Perhaps I can help." Said Jiminy. He jumps off of Amanda's shoulder and onto her hand. "What are we doing?" Liam asked. "Just hold on." Jiminy said. Amanda closes her hand, grabbing onto the little cricket. "Whoop! Not too tight now." Said Jiminy. He opens his umbrella, then Amanda starts to float. "Guys, grab on!" She said.
Liam grabs the swan princess's hand and starts to float with her, then Fallon grabs her husband's hand as she begins floating as well. The breeze takes the four away, but this one is more on the gentle side.
