I slowly walked into my house, taking a deep breath as I slumped into the couch. I never thought this day would come, but I was finally glad to be home. I was tired from everything that had happened lately. I turned on the T.V. just so it wouldn't seem so empty. I wished Rose was here. I was going to get her back sooner or later. I just needed to figure out how. I felt a strange presence, as if I wasn't alone. I hated that feeling. It normally meant trouble's near considering the last time I felt this I was right. I smelled the air. Nothing had been going on inside, but I smelt some unfamiliar scents near by. I heard a light knock at the door and walked over slowly, sort of concerned by how late it was, but anything can happen here so I just opened it anyways.

Amber gave a friendly grin as the door opened and waved a little. "Hey - you're Crystal, right?" She didn't really wait for a reply. "Um, we have someone you may know."
"Assuming you haven't lost it completely," Cassie muttered from behind.
"Of course I have. Long ago. What does that have to do with anything? Do you know Rose?" Amber asked, all in a rush, while her sister just rolled her eyes.

"Oh my God! How did you find her?" I asked ignoring the weirdness of the younger witch girl. I missed Rose so much! I hated that I couldn't have found her myself or sooner. I needed to thank them. "Why don't y'all come in?" I asked moving back to let them through.

Cassie shook her head. "We kind of - "
"Sure!" Amber piped up, completely overruling her sister as she almost always did. Cassie sighed, less from annoyance than defeat, and let go of Rose to pad into Crystal's house cautiously. Rose moved behind them mechanically.

"Okay....." I said shutting the door. Rose seemed in some sort of shock. "Rose I'm so sorry we didn't find you sooner. I got caught up in some mess the day after. I was so depressed about it. I've missed you so much!" I said walking over to her. I hugged her lightly. "Now please tell me how you found her." I said turning to the girls. I was curious as to how they knew Rose.

Cassie rolled her eyes. "According to Amber, a crow told her."
Amber crossed her arms and looked highly offended. "It was a raven. In a dream." She turned back to Crystal. "It told me I had to rescue her, so I did."
"Dragging me along, like always," Cassie grumbled to herself.

I raised a brow. Witches were too weird for me. "What did you do about Lacey, or whoever was there with her?" I asked curious as to how they could defeat any of them by themselves. Well Vivian and Jezebel might be easy to handle, but Ebony and Lacey definitely were not.

Amber shrugged. "We snuck around them."
Cassie sighed. "Correction: I told Amber to cause a minor distraction, so she blew something up next to the house. Then we snuck around them."
She widened her eyes innocently. "But it worked. Correct?"

"Wow......" I said laughing a little. "They are gonna be so mad. I need to tell Lucian about this." I mumbled to myself. I looked at them and smiled. "Thank you so much!" I said smiling widely. "Of course I know your name is Amber." I said looking at the younger girl. "What is yours?" I asked looking at the older girl smiling.

Cassie shrugged, letting a little of the battle-ready tension ease out of her body. She didn't trust automatically like Amber did - it just didn't come naturally to her, or come to her at all. Still, it was pretty obvious that Crystal wasn't an enemy. "I'm Cassie," she said casually. "Oh, and if my sister freaked you out a little, don't worry. She does everyone."
"Hey!" Amber exclaimed indignantly,

"It's nice to meet you both." I smiled at them laughing. "The people who had Rose will be taken care of. They've crossed my friends and I too many times." I said thinking about them. I wanted to kill Lacey for this, but of course I couldn't do it alone. Not after what I've been through. "If you'll excuse me for a second." I said picking up my phone, dialing Lucian's number.

"Princess?" His voice no longer sounded as soft as it had before - he sounded more like him, although somewhat less sardonic than usual.

"Can you come to my house? We need to talk." I said lightly as if it wasn't a big deal. I looked at Rose. It really was though.

He smirked slightly, and the expression seemed to infect his voice slightly. "Geez, between you and my little bloodsucker brother calling me, I'm never going to have some time to myself... be right there." The "be right there" was literal; he padded into the house moments later, not bothering to knock. He never really did. "What's the emergency?" he asked calmly, crossing his arms.

I tilted my head in the direction of Rose. "They rescued her. Lacey's going to be furious now." I said knowing that we'd take care of Lacey before she touched her again. I wasn't going to let anything happen to her again.
