They all left to the Central Park, where the traveling mirror was opened. They reached to Wendell's castle.
- Now what are we supposed to do?- Asked Tony.- Any ideas?
- I say we have some rest, and after it we start searching.- Said Wendell.
- I can't rest! My son's gonna be killed. And you say let's have a rest?? I demand that we start searching right now!
Wolf agreed with his wife:
- Yes! Let's start right now. I want my son back, and I want him back right now!
- We will find him.- Wendell was trying to calm the worried parents. But no use.
- I can’t wait anymore. I’m going to find him. Virginia are you coming with me?- Wolf asked Virginia, although he didn't want her to come. He didn't want her to get hurt. He knew this was a dangerous thing that they're doing. But, nothing could stop Virginia. They left together. Tony and Wendell stayed at the palace, trying to solve the quiz using a map.
Meanwhile Wolf and Virginia walked through the woods, without knowing where they were heading.
- Wolf, where are we supposed to look for him?
- I don't know honey. I just feel that we are on the right way.
They continued walking until they reached a house in the center of the woods. Wolf was surprised. he knew the woods very well, but he never noriced that house.
- I never saw this house. maybe it's new.
- Things may have changed over here. It's been three years now since we left.- Said Virginia andcontinued.- Let's see if there's someone living here. I'm hungry.
- Me too.
And they came near the house. There was no one outside, neither inside. The house wasempty. wolf tried to open the door, but it was locked.
- It's locked. I'll break this door, so we would get inside.
He brought a piece of a metal that he found near the house. he tried to open the door, but failed. Virginia found an axe and gave it to Wolf. This time the door was opened.
Everything was clean inside. Virginia was amazed.
- Wow, look at the furniture, and the kitchen.. it's so beautiful.
- Someone lived here. I just can't understand how come everything is so clean?
Wolf went to the kitchen, where Virginia was.
- Virginia, I'm hungry. Is there something to eat?
- I'm trying to find the food. But I don't know where is it.
Wolf felt a strange smell. It smelled like... him.
- I don't keep the food here.
A voice heard from the door. Both, Virginia and Wolf turned to see whom voice was that. It was a girl. But she was dressed like a man. She had long hair, and a... tail. And she wasn't hiding it.
Virginia came closer to her to apologize for entering without permission:
- We're sorry to break the door of your house. We thought that no one lives here. We apologize.
Wolf couldn't speak. He was staring at the young woman, who wasn't exactly what she seemed to be. She was half a wolf, just like him.
He came closer to her carefully:
- Are you a...
- Yes, I am a wolf. Just like you.- She replied before he could finish his question. And she continued:
- You are both hungry, aren't you?
Virginia nodded agreeing. wolf couldn't move. He was in a shock. It was the first time to see a half wolf after all this time. Not to mention it was a female. The last time he saw a half wolf was when they met the gypsies.
- Wolf, are you O.K.?- Asked Virginia.
- Yes. I must go out. Wait here. I'll be back.- And he went out running.
Virginia was confused by her husband's behavior.
- I'm sorry. He must be confused.- She turned to the young woman.- You see, our son has been kidnaped.
- I know, they talk about it hee. All the kingdom knows.
- By the way, my name is Virginia. What's your name?
- Lucy. What's your kid's name?
- Mike.
- O.K., oh by the way, nice to meet you.
- Thanks. Umm, Lucy, do you have something to eat? I'm so hungry.
At last Lucy smiled.
- Come, I'll take you to the place where I keep the food.
Behind the house she had a little place, which looked like a store room. They entered the place, and Virginia was amazed with what she saw.
-You have a modern kitchen over here.
- This is where I spend most of my day. The other one in the house is not for me. I don't eat there.
- Then, who does?
- My guests. If I have any. Come, let's see what do we have here.
She brought some fresh meat, cut them into little pieces and made some soup, adding some potatos to it.
- I hope you like it.
Virginia tasted the soup, and said:
- It's great. I never had such a soup before.
Lucy smiled:
- I never made such a soup before.
- Now what are we supposed to do?- Asked Tony.- Any ideas?
- I say we have some rest, and after it we start searching.- Said Wendell.
- I can't rest! My son's gonna be killed. And you say let's have a rest?? I demand that we start searching right now!
