   Elizabeth spent days grieving about how they left because of the incident, but didn't know if it was about the incident. She thought she couldn't keep grieving because if it so she got up and walked outside. When she did she felt the warm sun and amazing breeze she felt. The tender smell of roses, lilies, poppies, and daisies filled her senses as she let go and fell on the valley of flowers. While she was looking at the baby blue sky, it started to rain and dark gray clouds started to shroud the sky as if a storm was coming. Elizabeth ran back to the house, she saw Carlial starting a fire in the fire place and Jewels grabbed a big red blanket with her favorite book Elizabeth always read her. And James setted the table so we could eat lunch.
Carlial turned around and walked up to Elizabeth.
"Elizabeth lets eat lunch together, and read a book near the fire place we haven't done this in a while and James and Jewels have been getting lonesome."
Elizabeth looked at her two adorable children standing next to each other looking at her.
"Yeah, let's do that."
She walked to the kitchen to make food but it seems that there was already food made to eat. In surprised Elizabeth asked Carlial
"Did you make this?"
He nodded his head.
"It wasn't just me that made it, Jewels and James helped to."
She looked to James and Jewels, then back to Carlial. He nodded again and Elizabeth smiled at them. She took out the food and set it on the table, they ate their lunch and read Jewels favorite book. After she finished reading the book she looked at them. Seeing them sleeping soundly and took a glance at the fire she to fell asleep.
The sun raised and Elizabeth woke up, but she didn't see her family. She looked around the house but she didn't see any of them in sight, Elizabeth spotted something on the table in her bed room she walked to it. It was a note, it said to come to the edge of the forest of sorrows and come in armed, then we'll talk.
   When she reached the edge of the forest, a man in black was standing there waiting, suddenly.
   "Hey, you over there."
He turned around surprised but when he noticed it was her, he gave Elizabeth a creepy grin.
   "Well, well, well isn't it Elizabeth."
   "How do you know my name and are you the one who took my family!?"
The mysterious man in black started to lightly laugh.
   "I might have took them and I might have not, but the answer to your first question I will tell you that."
   "Then how is it, and who are you tell me!"
   "My name is rumplestiltskin and, I know your name because you story told to end my reign over the lands."
   "W-what do you mean by end of your reign?"
   "It means you are the one to end me and bring prosperity to the lands."
   "Is that so but, then are you the one who took my family then!?"
   "No idea."
   "Your lying!"
   "Fine then, riddle me this, darkness with dampness it's very cold, water and tails that's how you'll find what you seek."
A black cloud with thunder whirled around him and a strong wind blew Elizabeth's hair into her face, and when the wind stopped rumplestiltskin disappeared into thin air. Elizabeth started thinking about the riddle  she'd been told, the clue to where her family was.
   When suddenly she had remembered that there was the spell book she had found with her name as the title. She searched for a spell to contact her mother Lily. She turned pages and pages then finally she found it, a spell that would contact a person from anywhere in the world even to other lands. She began saying the words to ,talk to Lily.
   "Far and wide to lands away from here may I speak to the one I morn, Lily!"
A flash of white and gold light appeared, Elizabeth tried to see if the spell had worked.
"Umm, hello can anyone hear me?"
Elizabeth thought it hadn't worked so she sighed and closed the book, but suddenly.
"Elizabeth! Is that you!?"
"Mom, is that, yeah it's me Elizabeth, I need you to come back and quickly!"
"Why, how come, what happened?"
"A man took them away!"
"Who was taken away?"
"A man took my family away! Please hurry!"
"Okay, okay stay calm we're on our way back."
The spell stopped and Elizabeth cried herself to sleep, and by the next morning Lily had arrived and let herself in. Lily shook Elizabeth's shoulder, she immediately awoke. Her wide and eyes swollen red, still filled with tears. Her hair was a mess and she slept where she last saw her family.
"Elizabeth do you remember anything about this man that took them?"
Still crying, her voice creaked as she answered the question.
"I only remembered that he was wearing all black but he had his hood on, he also told me a riddle, he said it was a clue to finding them."
Elizabeth started to cry harder and her brother and sister saw her crying, they bent down and comforted her.
"It's alright Elizabeth keep going your doing great."
"Umm, her knew my name, but how I've never meet him before?"
"Do you remember anything else?"
"No."
Lily sighed.
"Wait he told me his name I think is was humbledstiltskin or something."
"Oh no, was his name rumplestiltskin?"
Elizabeth nodded her head yes.
"I don't know how to tell you this but I'll just go out and say it, rumplestiltskin is your grandfather."
Elizabeth stopped in surprise it was like she turned to stone but the weight on her shoulders from hearing that was like steal was weighing her down.
"Why would he want to take away my family from me I haven't done him wrong?"
(And readers please don't think wrong of this sentence above.)
"I don't know why but we have to find your family quick."
"Okay."
Elizabeth's tears started to dry up.
"Alright Elizabeth what was the riddle he told you?"
"Umm, I think it went like darkness and dampness it's very cold, water and tails that's how you'll find seek."
"What do we know that's damp and cold, but dark?"
"Mom, what about a cave?"
Ema announced.
"That's it but what about the water and tails?"
"Wait I think he's talking about the mermaid cave that Carlial went to."
"Well do you know where that is?"
"Yeah it's on the other side of the forest of sorrows."
"Okay Elizabeth wear something suitable for fighting."
She ran to her room and changed into tights and leather boots she had a enchanted sword that  could cut through anything. They were ready for war amongst family.
