Tell them

"Come in" said Stella as she heard a knock on her office door and she looked up from her desk.

"Hello Aunt" said Maddie as she smiled and she walked into Stella office.

"Hello Aunt Stella" said Matt as he smiled.

"Hi Aunt Stella" said Annie as she smiled.

"Oh hello children" said Stella as she smiled at them all.

"Please sit" said Stella as she smiled and Maddie, Annie and Matt all sat down on the couch, they all wondered why they were here.

"Aunt Stella, Mira told us that you wanted to talk to us about something important?" asked Annie.

"Ahhh well yes my dear, I do have something to talk to you all about" said Stella as she smiled.

"But first…" said Stella as she was cut off by another knock on her office door.

"Come in" said Stella as Annie, Maddie and Matt turned to look at the door as it opened and Maddie's face scrunched up as soon as she saw who it was.

"Good Morning Vice Chancellor" said Ollie as he smiled and he walked into Stella office.

"Good Morning Prince Oliver" said Stella as she smiled and Ollie walked to stand beside her desk with a smile.

"Hi guys" said Ollie as he smiled and he waved at Annie, Maddie and Matt as if they were all best friends.

"Hello Prince Oliver" said Annie as she smiled.

"Hi" said Matt just out of courtesy, he really was annoyed, he did not expect to see this guy here at all.

"Mhmm" said Maddie as she did not even say anything, she just looked so irritated that he was here… AGAIN?? Why was he always here, of how she missed the good old days when they never knew that this guy existed and they enjoyed the Palace all to themselves.

"Vice Chancellor, have you told them yet?" asked Ollie as he smiled and he turned to look at Stella.

"Well No Prince Oliver, you came just as I was about to tell them" said Stella as she smiled.

"Well then good, I want to be the one to tell them" said Ollie as he smiled.

"Tell us what??" asked Maddie as she did not know what was going on at all and Annie and Matt nodded as well, this was confusing, just what were Stella and Ollie talking about.

Maddie was starting to get suspicious, with Ollie involved you could never know, who knows what he had planned, and somehow he had gotten Aunt Stella to agree with him on whatever it is that they were talking about.

"Well dear Maddie" said Ollie as he smiled and Maddie scoffed at him, since when did he have the right to call her dear??? If not for Aunt Stella here, she would have rebuked him accordingly and put him in his place.

"Lovely Annie, and Matt" said Ollie as he looked at Annie and Matt and Matt shook his head.

"I have very, very good news to tell you all" said Ollie as he smiled and Stella smiled as she just watched Ollie as he spoke.

Maddie just remained quiet, because just like Annie and Matt, she wanted to know what was going on, even though every second of her hearing his annoying voice made her want to punch him.

"My parents want to meet you all" said Ollie with a smile.

"Huh??" asked Maddie as she was so confused right now, what did she just hear Ollie say?? That his parents wanted to meet them??

"Wait what?" asked Annie as she was just as confused as Maddie, there she was expecting bad news, but this was just the total opposite.

"Excuse me?" asked Matt as even he was confused as they all turned to look at Aunt Stella and she just smiled.

"I know, I know it is a lot to take in" said Ollie as he smiled, but he was not helping their confusion one bit.

"My Parents, my mother and Father, the King and Queen of the Witch Realm, want to meet you all, and especially you Annie" said Ollie as he smiled and he looked at Annie.

"Me?" asked Annie as she could not believe this.

"Yes you" said Ollie as he smiled, they should have been excited, they didn't know just how much work he had put in to convince his Father to let them come to the Castle.

"But why?" asked Annie as she looked at Ollie and then at Aunt Stella.

"Yes why" said Maddie as she could not understand and Matt also agreed with them, this was just so sudden, out of nowhere they were going to meet the King and Queen of the Witch Realm?? The key word there was why??

"What do you mean why?" asked Ollie as he smiled, they looked more confused than happy.

"What Prince Oliver means to say is that their Majesties would like to meet you all" said Stella as she chipped in, she could see the confusion and disbelief on Annie, Maddie and Matt's faces.

"They realized that they had never had any real connection with the Grey family, and they want to change that, a lot has happened in our Realm, and well some changes need to happen as well" said Stella as she explained.

"Okay I understand that, but why do me and Matt have to meet them as well?" asked Maddie as that still did not make sense at all.

"Well my dear, because you are all connected in a way" said Stella as she smiled and she explained, while Annie seemed to be thinking.

"Does Curtis know about this?" asked Annie as she looked at Aunt Stella.

"Yes he does my dear, in fact we spoke about it yesterday" said Stella as she smiled.

"And what did he say?" asked Annie.

"Well he said that the choice is up to you to make" said Stella as she smiled while Annie just did not like this one bit… she was suspicious, well because suspicion was the only way she would be able to stay safe in her powerless state right now.

"So what do you say Annie???" asked Ollie as he smiled and he looked at Annie as Maddie and Matt turned to look at her as well, if she said yes, then of course they would go along with her, because they were a team, and well if she said no, it would be good riddance to Ollie.

Annie really did not know what to do, judging from the situation, she did not think that it would be wise to decline, after all they were talking about the King and Queen right now, oh how she wished that she could talk to Curtis right now, but she could not.

Annie was stuck between a rock and a hard place, she did could not say no, but she did not want to say yes, everyone was looking at her as she quickly made a decision.

"Alright… we agree" said Annie as she finally made her decision and Maddie sighed as she could not blame Annie at all.

"Great!" said Ollie as he smiled he looked so happy.

"I cannot wait for you all to see the Castle" said Ollie as he smiled.

"Which Castle?" asked Matt.

"Well we are going to meet the King and Queen, so of course we are going to the Castle" said Ollie as he smiled.

"What do you mean going to the Castle?" asked Maddie as this was news to her.

"The King and Queen have invited you to stay a few days in the Castle" said Ollie as he smiled.

"Oh my word" said Maddie to herself as this was turning into something else.

"Aunt Stella…" said Annie as she turned to look at Stella.

"My dear, everything will be alright, you will be safe at the Castle, trust me when I say that everything fine" said Stella as she smiled as she knew that Annie did not feel too good about this whole thing.

"Alright Aunt Stella, if you say so" said Annie as she sighed.

"And have you told my parents yet?" asked Annie.

"Well not yet my dear, but I will tell them once they return" said Stella as she smiled.

"Okay" said Annie and Ollie smiled, he would finally have some people his age at the Castle, this was exciting.

"And when do we leave?" asked Matt as everyone turned to look at him, that was a good question.

"Well this evening" said Ollie as he smiled.

"Wait this evening??" asked Maddie and Ollie nodded his head.

"Yes" said Ollie as he smiled.

"But isn't this too fast?" asked Maddie as how could they just get up and leave just like that?.

"Well you cannot keep the King and Queen waiting can you now?" asked Ollie as he smiled, and every single moment that passed by Annie, Maddie and Matt were really realizing that this was much more deep than they could know.
