*~*Talia's POV*~*
There was a commotion going on downstairs. One of the castle staff had called my mom to let her know that there were several people, one of which was my sister Rika, out in front of the castle. And two of them seemed to have been fighting and were now crying.
"What in the world?" Mom asked as she handed Reeselynn off to my grandmother Lila. "Can you watch her for me?" Mom asked as she and dad prepared to see what was happening.
"Of course, sweetheart. I don't mind watching her at all."
"Mom?" I called for her, rushing over to where she was conjuring a magical door.
"Yes, Talia?" She gave me a calm look, something that told me that she was in a hurry, but that she wasn't overly panicked yet. Rika was strong, so if there was something going on, she could likely handle it.
"Can I come with you?" I asked, hoping that she wouldn't tell me no.
"Why?"
