* Her young son was in the room they set up with books for him to entertain himself as well as some toys. She smiled to see her precious baby smiling and bouncing on Christina's lap.*
I am afraid so.
* She nodded as she sat across from her. Allie was exhausted from standing all this time and using her abilities to keep the chateau protected.*
There have been more incidents. Unfortunately, we have news that the Prime Minister is dead. The city is being evacuated. It appears they are attacking landmark and government buildings. Our armies are doing their best to get people out safely.
*The Spanish warrior sped further into the city to help and inform the guards on their plan. The sirens were going off while they helped people move along the main road along the river to get them out. She heard screams and immediately rushed to put an end to looters starting to break into stores and businesses. She leaped into action, taking them one by one. Using her lasso, she began to disarm them and knock them out for the guards and police. Her strength in combat getting stronger as she swept the streets before looters could hurt anyone else. She kicked and punched, her lasso throwing men in a pile. Olivia moved on to quickly regain control of the city. She heard an explosion coming from the Populaire. She gasped, but fought on. Some clowns showed up and began to shoot at her. Olivia groaned as she jumped to divert all the bullets away from those running away from the scene. Picking up a parked motor car, she threw at them to stop their firing. They coward down and run away. Olivia pressed further down the road.*
This way!
*She helped civilians towards the park road to maximize evacuation efforts.*
*Audrey was again torn. She saw both siblings trying to take care of each other and neither was wrong. The sisters were basically trying to protect each other but the ballerina was realizing this wasnβt the time. They all needed to get to safety. There was a sound of an explosion and Julia urged them to get out now. As the three made it across the street, the ballerina looked back to see that someone was putting out the fire.*
Robin made out the blurry image of a fist and unfortunately had little strength to defend himself, let alone move. The blow dealt by Elsa managed to render him once again unconscious.
The Duchess of York was direct and certainly not timid when it came to speaking what was on her mind. He appreciated the characteristic and was entertained by her spirit. Alexander's smile widened with a chuckle when she complimented his family.
"Thank you, you are too kind."
He was about to make mention of being familiar with the accomplishments of the House of York when she pulled a gun from her bag and passed it to him. He found himself both surprised and not in the moment, already having come to expect the unexpected from Darla. The Earl stepped out of the car and rounded its front to meet her.
"On my honour. Follow me, stay close."
He gave her a signal to follow him as they continued to follow a stretch of the wall along the city's perimeter before cutting off into a wooded area. He and the Duchess moved to a lower altitude and navigated around a series of brushwood till they came to what appeared to be a sewer entrance.
* Allie nodded as she restated again pasting a small smile of her own.*
He went to help. If I see him again, I will let him know you wish to see him.
* She assumed since she was spewing questions about his whereabouts. Allie's head slightly tilted to the side.*
You will have to excuse me. I must check in with the children. Thank you again for your help. My private secretary will continue to send out information as it comes.
* The empress bowed her head and departed the room to head to her quarters and back down stairs into the safe room. Christina had feed and dressed the children when she returned.*
I am back.
* She made her entrance seeing Christina sitting on the sofa with Pea.*
*Why was it different? Her argument was invalid in the youngest Destler's mind. They were sisters and Rory was not going to let her stay behind. The sentiment was both ways. She squeezed both of their hands firmly as they heard a loud boom sound. Her bright eyes widened in fear as she is tugged away by Julia to start running outside. The cold winter air made the hair behind her neck stick out as she shuddered. The walked down the pebbled road across the street. Rory looked back to see some smoke coming from one side of the Populaire.*
*Bella hid it well, but she was intimidated by the Empress. She also felt embarrassed after attacking her. Even though she had been conditioned to do it under extreme torture, the Princess felt partially indebted. To some degree she was taken back to hear Noah had been here instead of coming to her directly.*
December had been staying at her home within the city for some time...business matters that required her full attention. She was dedicated to the legacy her father had left for her and she made a point to oversee everything that she could while still maintaining a seat at parliament as well as attending all court functions. She was quite the busy young woman.
Fast asleep in bed, the young Duchess didn't budge when the sirens first sounded. She was exhausted from head to toe so much that when her head laid down, she was out cold. December was expecting to return to the family chateau in the country the next afternoon and so, she sent the household staff ahead while she stayed one more night in the city.
It wasn't until an explosion at the opera house which shook the young duchesses house like it was the tail of a rattle snake that December finally woke. She flew to the window in her room and stared in horror as the Opera House was blazing with fire. She quickly dressed in a pair of trousers and a shirt, not at all becoming of a ladybut she couldnt be bothered with social propriety...December put on some shoes and ran out into the street...heading in the same direction as the crowds of people pushed their way to get out of the city. Her eyes remained focused on the Opera House in horror....hoping everyone had been evacuated. But she couldn't think of that at the moment...she had to get herself to the border and hope that a carriage from the country chateau would be waiting for her.
* Allie couldn't just let the opportunity slip. She was grateful he was willing to go.*
Thank you.
* She lowly spoke as she tried not to smile. Her eyes falling to the floor in amusement as she shook her head slightly. Before Allie turned back to see him, he was gone. Instantly, there was a knock at the door announcing the Princess of England. Allie bowed her head, surprised to see her right after Noah.*
Indeed. He came and notified me about the prime minister's death. He left only minutes ago.
