The Immortal Rose (GuardianAngel & LunarWolf)

Anastasia was just shaking her head before she was speaking, "When Phaedra makes up her mind on something... There is no stopping her. Such as now... She is going to go and have a word with the kitchen." Already she could see her sister getting up.
 
James did stop her this time "it might not be the kitchen though" James looked at his hands for a moment before speaking "it could be the servants"
 
"Phae will get to the bottom of it." Anastasia was speaking rather calmly as she was sipping at her own tea at the time.
 
James sat back and then nodded his head and hoped that she was right. what none of them had known was that the dose this time had been meant to kill the sickly prince
 
Anastasia was just leaning back for a brief moment in time before just looking as Raven was returning, and he definitely looked a little bit better. "Your food is safe to eat." she was commenting and was just showing him a silver needle.
 
Anastasia was just humming softly before she was commenting, "That and Phaedra swapped your food with her own." This actually had her deciding to shove a silver needle into the food that had been sitting where her sister had been sitting, to see how fast the needle turned black. The faster it turned, the stronger the poison.
 
"Because Phae has a relatively high poison tolerance." Anastasia was speaking as she watched the needle in the food which did turn black at a rather fast pace but definitely not as quickly as it did when she put a new one in the tea. The silver needle was just barely touching the tea and instantly turning black. This had a frown darken on her lips before she was speaking, "A high amount was mixed in with the tea." And now that she thought about it... Phaedra had drank nearly half of it. This actually had her jumping up quickly before she was grabbing her bag to run off. She needed to find Phaedra!
 
James and Raven stood up and then followed after her if her reaction was that sever then they both know that something was going on and she might need them
 
Anastasia was just running through the palace at that point in time, just asking anybody if they had seen her sister at all. There were a couple who were stating that she had headed out into the garden, following after a couple of rather suspicious servants. "I'm worried for her... For the first time since you have been there. The Pirate Queen didn't look alright." one of the servants was speaking.
 
Raven listened and then spoke "tell everyone I said to stop what they are doing and return to their room immediately" Raven then went with Anastasia to the gardens so that they could find her sister
 
The servants were nodding and heading off to do just that, making sure that the order was known. It wasn't long before they were arriving to the garden and at first they weren't seeing anything, but eventually they were hearing something. The sounds of a fight which had Anastasia bolting off towards the fighting. Of course it was Phaedra who had gotten into a fight with a couple of the servants and a figure in black. An assassin. An assassin that was going after Raven almost right away, yet found themselves a bit startled when Anastasia seemed to be coming up next to them out of the blue and all they felt was a brief pain to the neck before they started to feel their body going numb. "Just... Lay there for a bit." the younger female was speaking.
 
Not that much would really stop Phaedra at that point in time, even with the poison spreading at that point. Anastasia was just turning her back towards them at that point in time, not wanting to watch the violence, instead she was just kneeling down next to the assassin. "So... Want to be smart and tell us who sent you? Because I can promise that I'm sure I can find a way to make you talk more willingly than if they were to torture you. I can cause pain without ever truly harming you." she was commenting.
 
Raven looked at the man who said he was never going to talk this just had his shacking his head lightly. Raven knew that Anastasia was the best with medicines and herbs so he had no doubt that she could do as she said
 
Anastasia was just looking for a moment in time before she was tilting her head before she was commenting in a rather innocent voice, "I have the feeling that you will regret that choice. Anyways... You'll be immobile for the next four hours."
 
Raven chuckled and then spoke "remind me to never piss you off" he then looked at James and Phaedra took down the two servants just as the guards arrived
 
Anastasia was just looking towards him before she was speaking, "I have no idea what you speak off. I am innocent." She was however looking over at Phaedra for a brief moment, a bit of concern on her features. At the time her sister seemed fine... as fine as she could be anyways.
 
Phaedra was just watching them as well before she was turning to walk over towards the others at that point in time. "Phae." Anastasia was speaking in a worried voice which just had her stating that she would be fine in a bit, not to worry about it.
 
Phaedra was just looking before she was commenting, "I have no idea what you are talking about." With that she was heading off so that they could get back to the palace. Although things were definitely getting a bit chaotic on their way back though. Seemed like there was another assassin and about the only thing most people around would hear was the startled scream from Anastasia was her sister was shot in the shoulder with an arrow. An arrow that was aimed at the prince and would have struck him in the heart had Phaedra not pushed him out of the way.
 
Raven cursed and then caught her and pulled her to him before yelling to get to the castle. while he was calling out orders more guards were racing to where the other assassin was so that they could get and interrogate that one as well. while this was all happening Raven was scooping Phaedra up and heading for the castle at a run
