"Well dear, I do not have your family" said the Queen. "I haven't captured anyone. I rule this kingdom fairly and justly. You must be thinking of the White King. If anyone has your family, it would be him." The girls were taken aback at this information.
"And why should we believe you?" Asked April. "Because it is the truth. I see how you would think that I did take them, but 'never judge a book by its cover' girls. My name may be Black, but I was crowned the Queen because I saved Fantasia from the White King."
"Then all of this was for nothing?" Asked the dismayed June. "Our family isn't here? We wasted the past week trying to get here for no reason?" The Queen took June's hand in her's. "No. I can take you to the King. And I can help you rescue your family. But we must hurry. Otherwise, the King might be on our trail." Said Vindia.
"But first, very quick wardrobe change!" She snapped her fingers and her gown disappeared. She was now wearing a white shirt, black pants and boots, and her hair was tied in a bun. Her accessories were a bag filled with potions and charms. Vindia thrust clothes into each of he girl's hands.
A moment later, they appeared wearing the same thing the Queen was wearing, but April's short was red, May's blue, June's purple, and Abby's teal. "Take my hands children" she said, and snapped her fingers.
With a whoosh they were now in a dark, must castle. "Well, well, well" said a gruff voice behind them. "William" said Queen Vindia. "Vindia" said the White King. "I want the March's" said the Queen. "You shall give them to their family!"
"Or what?" Asked the King snickering. "Or this!" Said April, coming forward. She stomped her foot on the floor. A trail of fire danced over to the King and made a blazing circle around him. "Neat trick" he said. He sprayed water over the flames.
"But I'm the better magician." He said. Then, the Queen took out a bottle, a blew it all over the King. It turned him into a tiny fly. June quickly flicked her wrist and the King entered the jar. "For safe keeping" said the Queen. "He will be better."
There was the sound of footsteps pounding up the stairs, and Emma March, Gran, and Mom all came up. "Guys!" Cried the sisters, and ran forward to hug them. "I knew you could do it" said Emma.
Emma March was a tall girl with wavy blonde hair. Her blue eyes were shining with happiness at seeing her family again. "Oh of course they could!" Said Mrs. March. "Gran had her doubts at times." The white haired little woman smiled. "Sorry girls!" She said.
But they didn't mind the least. "Abby!" Called the Queen. "Yes?" She said. "Come. We have much to do. I want you to work for me. Or with. Whichever you prefer. Come dear."
The Queen put her arm around Abby, and they left for the Queen's castle. "Let's go home guys" said Emma.
