Hunter's POV:

"HUNTER!!" Someone shouted. I jerked awake, looking around in a panic. "Hmm? Huh what? What happened?!" I cried. I then fell out of bed. I looked up and tried to focus my eyes. I saw my Mom and Dad standing over me. "What?" I said, as I rubbed my head. "Get up. We have a problem." Dad said.

I stood up and held my head. I looked at my bed and saw Violet rubbing her eyes. "Daddy what's wrong?" She asked. "Someone in the kingdom is missing." He said, as he picked her up. "What? Whose missing?" I asked, curiously. "Apparently their new in town. Someone named Angel Starlight." He said. This got my attention.

"WHAT?!" I cried. Mom and Dad stared at me. "Sorry. I...that was one of the girls who I talked to at the interviews. She's missing?" I asked. "Yeah. Two other girls are missing too. I think they were the two girls who you also talked to." Dad said. "Alex and Eliza?" I asked. "I think those are their name." Mom said.

"So what?" I asked. "Come on. The girls' parents are going crazy wondering where the girls are. No one has seen them all day or night last night." Dad said. I looked at my phone. It was three in the morning. "What?" I said. "Yeah. We're going to send out a search party for them." Mom said. I quickly ran to the bathroom and brushed my teeth.

I put on some shoes. I came back out and ran out the door. I saw Dad coming out of Violet's room. "Violet just go back to bed princess. I'll be back later." He said. I heard Violet mumble something. Dad turned around and looked at me. "Where are you going?" He asked. "I'm coming with." I said. "Hunter-" I cut him off.

"No Dad. I uh, want to help. You've always told me I'll need to learn how to rule the kingdom one day. Maybe this'll help me." I said. He shrugged. "I guess." He said. He and I walked downstairs and out the door. I already seen Mom in the car. The guards drove us into town. We pulled up to the police station.

There, I saw Misha standing around. She had tears in her eyes as she paced the floor. "Misha!" I called. She looked at me. "You know her?" Mom asked. "Yeah. She's Angel's Mom." I said. Misha stared at us before bowing. "Your Highnesses." She said. "Hello." Mom said. I looked at Dad. He stared at her. "Misha your saying Angel is missing?" I asked.

She nodded. "So is Eliza and Alex." Eliza's Mom said. She and her husband approached us. So did Alex's parents. "All three of them are missing?" I asked. They nodded. "Hunter you know all three of these girls?" Mom asked. I nodded. "Yeah. I talked them at the interviews and saw they at school yesterday." I said.

"My baby." Misha said. Ja'Von then appeared. He came up and hugged Misha. I'm guessing the date went well. "Ja'Von. What are you doing here?" Dad asked. "Oh. Eliza and Angel set me up with Misha. We hit things off pretty quickly." He said. "Misha do you have any idea where Angel could be? Any place she could've went to?" I asked. She shook her head.

"No. Me and Angel just moved here recently. I don't know anywhere she could've gone to." She said. "Well someone had to have seen them." Mom said. Dad pulled me off to the side. "What's up?" I asked. "Misha...I never thought I would meet someone who scares me just by looking at them." He said.

"Don't worry. Misha scares me too." I said. "I'm actually intimidated by her." He said. "Trust me Dad. Misha scares me too." I said. He looked back at her. "I don't even know this woman yet she-" I cut him off. "Dad are you attracted to Misha?" I asked, curiously. He shook his head. "No but something about her is....different." He said. I stared at her.
