Epilogue

    “So is it really okay if I take Vanessa and Kendal to Galatia for a sleepover even though I’m technically still grounded?” Aria asked her parents in disbelief.

    Elizabeth smiled while Ted jested, “You can consider it time off for good behavior.”

    “You make it sound like I’m a prisoner,” Aria muttered, as her parents both laughed. “You know Vanessa’s punishment ended a few days ago and her parents don’t even know the truth.”

    “You’re right, Aria,” Elizabeth replied, as she continued to fold laundry. “Her parents were merely worried that Vanessa could end up in a dangerous situation. We, however, knew for a fact that you were in grave danger.” She paused, taking in a deep breath as she dropped the clothes and looked her daughter in the eye. “Aria, you have no idea what you put your father and me through that night. You disappear until two in the morning and then we hear that you were in this god awful kingdom ruled by a man that sucks the lives out of young girls?”

    “I know, I’m sorry, Mom, Dad” Aria stated, sincerely. “I just panicked when I thought of Kendal there. I couldn’t stand the thought of her dying there so I just had to act quickly.”

    Elizabeth sighed. “I understand, sweetie. But you should have gone to the fairies for help before blindly marching in there.”

    “We did call Myrtle,” Aria pointed out, and then mumbled, “Well, Vanessa did.”

    “Yes, and thank God for that,” Ted agreed, returning his eyes to the paper he held. “Otherwise you would all be dead.”     

    “I know.” Aria sighed. “I’m sorry, but I did try talking to the other fairies before and they didn’t seem to want to help unless I was the one in danger.”

    “Aria, you are a princess,” Elizabeth reminded her. “All you had to order was order their assistance and they would have had no choice but to help.”

    “I guess I didn’t think of that,” Aria muttered, learning back on the couch.

    The moment the doorbell rang, Aria rushed to answer it, seeing that it was Vanessa. The two hugged each other before Aria opened the door wider for Vanessa to come in.

    “So when are we leaving?” Vanessa asked eagerly. “I can’t believe we are actually sleeping over in your castle!”

    Aria glanced at the clock. “Adora should be here in half an hour. Hopefully Kendal will get here before that.”

    “Oh, right, Kendal,” Vanessa muttered as she dropped her bag down by the front door. “Do we absolutely have to invite her along?”

    “Yes,” Aria stated, firmly. “Kendal’s only been to Evalius and she needs to see the good part of the other world too. Besides, I thought you two were working on being friends again.”

    “Yes, we are, and I think we’ve been doing a lot better lately.”

    Aria raised her eyebrow and asked, “Have you even seen Kendal over the break?”

    “Nope, that’s the beauty of it,” Vanessa declared as she took her coat off. “I think the time apart has done us good.”

    “Well, you are going to have to get use to seeing each other. School does start again next week,” Aria reminded her.

    “Are you sure a sleepover is such a good idea for us?” Vanessa asked, skeptically. “I mean, what if we just can’t get along? We’ll be stuck with each other all night.”
