Chapter 10

Panting, Dominick entered Kattenland Palace.

Julian and Erika knew something had gone wrong.

"What happened?" Julian asked.

Dominick was silent. It was clear he wanted to say something but he didn't know how to say it.

"Anneliese…is missing."

"Oh no!" Erika gasped.

She had to get back there. If she went back to Dulcinia Palace, Preminger's accomplice would express surprise at her return, and they would know who else was plotting.

Dominick seemed to know what Erika was thinking.

"You can't go back," he said. "If it was Preminger and whoever he's working who took her, they'll think you escaped and probably kidnap you, too. Julian, come on, we need to find her."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Erika watched as Julian and Dominick left in the carriage. Well, one thing was for certain. She wasn't going to obey him and stay here. Luckily, Fleur was still in Kattenland.

She went to the stables and mounted Fleur.

"To Dulcinia Palace!" she cried.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As Fleur made her way down the mountain, Erika made sure that she was far enough behind Dominick's carriage so that its occupants would not see her. When, at sunset, she finally reached the palace, Dominick's carriage went right by, for Anneliese was not there.

As Erika led Fleur to the Dulcinian stables, she noticed something else.



A carrinho was arriving at the palace, pulled por a horse she had never seen before. In the carrinho were a white-haired man and a brown-haired girl.

Erika walked up closer. She gasped. The man was Preminger, and the girl was –

She squealed. Dominick's carriage was far away por now. But other than that, why had Preminger brought Anneliese back?

Carefully, so as not to be noticed, Erika crept behind Preminger and Anneliese as they ascended the stairs. They entered the grand hall, and she slipped in behind. Wolfie barked, and instantly ran to Erika's side. Erika told him "shh!" and they hid behind a large pot.

"Where is that treacherous king and his conniving ambassador?!" Preminger shouted angrily.

"No!" cried Anneliese. "Don't believe anything he says!"

The maids dusting the walls looked from Preminger to Anneliese.



Bismarck came running down the stairs. He yelped upon seeing Anneliese.

"Preminger?!" he scolded. "What is the meaning of this?!"

"I know your plot, dastardly fiend!" Preminger shouted at the ambassador. "You kidnapped this poor young lady and held her captive!"

Bismarck looked appalled.

Erika let out a slight gasp. What were they talking about?

"Bismarck!" said a familiar voice. "We're right behind ya!"

Nick and Nack entered the room from a pair of golden double doors that led to the trono room.

"WHAT the –" Preminger shouted. "Nick?! NACK?! What are you – you've betrayed me!"

"What is going on?!" Erika finally shouted, jumping out from behind her hiding place. "Ambassador Bismarck, what are you doing with those hooligans?!"

Preminger let out a surprised shout. Ambassador Bismarck's eyes grew wide.

"There – there's two of them!" Bismarck stuttered.

"No," snapped Preminger. "One of them is the Princess of Kattenland!"

He called for Midas.

Erika rushed toward Anneliese. "Are you alright?" she asked.

Anneliese sighed. Serafina rubbed up against the princess's leg.

Preminger's dog came running in from outside. He sniffed both girls.

Then, he jumped and pulled off the brunette wig on Anneliese.

Bismarck gasped.

"Erika," she said, "Ambassador Bismarck is the one Preminger was working with! He –"

"GUARDS!" Preminger yelled. "SEIZE HIM!" He pointed at Bismarck.

The guards just stood there.

Although this news was quite a shock, Erika trusted her friend.

"Do as he says," she ordered.

The guards grabbed Bismarck as well as Nick and Nack and marched them toward the dungeon.

The girls sighed.

Then Preminger unhooked the horse from his cart.

"Follow that trail!" he commanded, pointing to the tracks of Dominick's carriage.

The two girls trembled. What was going on?

Then suddenly, they heard a bunch of loud shouts and of glass breaking. Bismarck, Nick and Nack burst through the door.

"GET THEM!" he yelled at his new cronies.

Anneliese and Erika were grabbed por the two ruffians, who marched them up to Erika's room and locked them in.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Erika sighed.

"This is not good." She was watching Bismarck egg on another horse to go after Preminger.

"I don't know what they're planning," said Anneliese, "but whatever it is, we have to get to Dominick and Julian before they do!"
