"Oh my goodness! Nastya wasn't lying!" The girl with auburn hair said. Tears filled her eyes as she and the chestnut blond haired girl ran out to find that 'Nastya.' I had no idea what was happening, another girl appeared. She had light brown hair and large blue eyes, and was tall and well-built, with rosy cheeks. Her eyes was soft and gentle. She looked like the chestnut blond hair girl but all on a more vivid scale. She had the same charming smile, the same shape of face and both had magnificent eyes, however this girls eyes were a majestic deep blue. Her hair also had golden bits in.

"Sorry, they're just a bit shocked to see you awake, Astrid." The girl apologized.

"Who are you? How do you know my name?" I hissed as I slid backwards in the bed. The girls face dropped as she looked at me.

"They didn't say you'd have amnesia." She recalled and ran out, I was left alone and then they came back again.

"I'm telling you! She has no idea who or where she is! She can't even remember any of us!" I heard the girl who had just ran of say. They walked through the door. My mouth dropped open when I saw who it was.

It was Tsar Nicholas the second and his wife, Alexandra. I dropped the the floor noticing my change of outfit from my pjs to a white gown and I clasped my hands together begging for forgiveness. "I'm so sorry your imperial highnesses! I will be leaving! Please forgive me your Imperial Majesties!"

I stood up and felt my feet on the cold floor, I went to walk when the Tsarina spoke. "Where are you going dear?" She asked me, I turned back and stopped. My face reddened slightly and I answered as polite as I could. "To go home, your majesty." I replied. The Tsarina looked hurt at my words, she looked over at the girl with blue eyes.. that's Maria.. "Maria and Anna, go get Dr Botkin and apologize for the inconvenience." The Tsarina ordered. I was probably dreaming, these guys were probably executed like 69 years ago.

The odd sound of the Tsarina's sobbing filled the room full of confused looking royals. I scratched my head. I sat down. After a few minutes, Anna and Maria came back with a round man. Maria and her siblings were beckoned out and they did leave. "Your majesty, I'm sorry for not coming in the proper attire, I had to come as soon as I heard this." The Tsar excused him And explained the problem. The round man came up to me as I looked at him. I knew how to defend myself and fight. I could beat him up. "Hello." He said. I didn't reply as he took a notebook and pencil and began questioning me.

"Hello, I'm Doctor Botkin, what's your name?" He said. I didn't pay too much attention. "Umm. My names Astrid Hoffmann-Alexandrovna if that helps." My parents are divorced and neither live with me and Margo. I usually say Hoffmann though. "Where do you come from?" He asked. I stopped looking around. Then I got an idea, if I was dreaming I couldn't pinch myself! I pinched myself and felt pain. My eyes filled with water and I started to cry. "No no! Where's Margo! My little sister! How is this possible!"

I saw the Grand Duchesses and Alexei appear again. The Tsar turned to them. "You five leave now." The Tsar ordered. Tatiana frowned and shook her head. "I'm seeing her now!" She decided. The Tsar looked angry. "She is the state of no visitors." He replied and grabbed Tatiana and pulled her away. The rest scattered as Tatiana was closed out of the room.

"How old are you?" The doctor asked. I sniffed and looked at him. "I'm twelve." I replied, he nodded. He scribbled it down. "And where are you from?" He asked. I looked at him and gulped. "West Germany.." he looked oddly at me. "Germany." I corrected myself. He sighed and looked at me.

"I'm sorry but, you don't have a sister called Margo, it's not 1987 and you are a Grand Duchess." The doctor broke the news to me. I sat huddled as he and the Tsar and Tsarina left, the Tsarina sobbed on her husbands shoulder as they left.

Where was Margo? And why am I in 1912.. if this is a prank from Margo and she got really cool actors it needs to stop. I am about to pee myself, please Margo.. stop this prank if it really is one. I can't take it anymore... please...
