Sorry :(

Before I post anything, I would like to begin with an apology.

I was busy with so much work and publishing any post was difficult. Any how, I'll try to become more active, so for now I'll leave you with a chapter of Madame Royale.

Next time is Blast from the Past.

Thanks for all the views and support!
 ~Annie

The pounding of a strong fist causes me to startle, from my cold sleep. I wipe urgently at my damp skin and slip open the window, only to find William frantically pulling at the handles. “Your grace, you must run! They are to escort you back to Paris! Run you grace! Run!”
“William, calm yourself! What in god’s name do you speak of?”
I see the anxiety rush across his trembling face, whilst he chokes; “Your majesty, they have discovered the plan, they are to take your family back to Legislative Assembly, you must leave!”
My hands reach for my throbbing temple as I catch a deep breath. “No, it cannot be...where are my father and mother, the King and Queen?”

“Your family has been taken, your grace. But they beg that you leave, to not seek any pain or harm”
“No harm?” I let out a strangled sob before darting open the doors. “William pull free a horse, I must ride...”
“Where will you go, Madame?”
“To the docks, perhaps there will be some merchants that can lend me traveling gear. But before I go William, I shall want you to send word to my family”
“Anything for you, Milady”
This causes a smile to curl up my dried lips as I turn to the exhausted horses. “Tell them, that that I have flown to my homes nest”
His face fills with a complete confused looked, yet he still lowers himself and swears to his loyalty. “I stay true for you milady, and your family”
“God bless you William” Soon as he helps me saddle onto my horse, I pull the reins of my mare tightly and burst on forwards. “God speed!” He shouts and in return I bow.
I must muster an army in Austria, I must restore my family.

Survival Quiz

So after weeks of testing and checking out quizzes I thought about and gave it a go. Now I will ask strange questions...or offer weird answers, but the choice is yours...

Welcome....

Summary:

Question #3
Henry seems to flourish a certain family of high class. Your friends complain of this injustice. You;
A. Cleverly slither the topic with Henry during a discussion and change his mind
B. Ignore! I don't want to risk losing my head!

A. Ask that the king may bring all his children to court for the Christmas
B. Visit without his majesty's permission
Or C. Spoil Edward, the prince and ignore the daughters.

Answers
1. C (confessing you're a protestant will probably cause you to be in flames...literally)
2. B (Best to be silent, Henry is quite notorious for his temper)
3. B or A (Preferably B)
4. C (Henry takes enjoyment in theatrics and music. Fashion will just bore him)
5. B (Donkey's milk is quite effective, but will take a while. And C...that just simply not a good answer)
6. A (If your dealing with your life at the hands of Henry...Fight for it! Shower him with compliments or proclaim yourself his loyal loving wife...something like that)
7. A (Show equal love to all of them. Try to reconnect this broken family)

Well that's it, hope you survived this mans marriage life. Quite the stress isn't it? Let's just hope he won't get married again.

Elizabeth: And what of you mother and father?
Anne: *Grinning* I slept well, how bout you Henry?
Henry: *Rubs his neck groaning* Fine
Catherine: Finally he sees how it feels
Anne: *nodding* It was hilarious you should have seen it
Elizabeth: Father, mother compose yourself. Please make amends.
Anne: *Beaming* Of course, my good queen Bess
Alexander the great and Cleopatra: To your seats, madame and sir

*at other table*
Rasputin: Pretty ladies will you do the kindest of favors and leave that sweaty boar for I?
Marie Antoinette: *Giggles Child like* Oh you flatter us Monsieur
Mary: Indeed...what would my husband think
Elizabeth: *Patting her sister* oh Mary you deserve so much better
Anne: And how bout you Elizabeth where is Robert? *Teases*
Henry: DOES NO ONE HEAR THIS MAN INSULT ME!
Cleopatra: Sir we will need you to lower you voice, or the manager says will have to kick you out
Henry: and who is this manager?
Alexander the Great: Why your brother Arthur...
Catherine: My husband *rises quickly while Henry chokes in fear*
Arthur: My brother and Cat! *Turns to the girls* and who are these beautiful woman? *Plants kisses on Annes hands*
Anne: Anne Boleyn sir, and you?
Arthur: Prince of wales, madame...you must be Henry's sixth wife...no wonder he kept you
Anne: *Grinning* No I was second, he had my head swiped
Arthur: My god! Who could kill just a lady! Oh brother have you no taste? Ane what of gorgeous Catherine? Divorced?
Henry: JUST SHUT UP ARTHUR!
Arthur: *narrows eyes* Secuirty
Henry: WHAT ABOUT MY FOOD!?
Anne and Catherine: I think you've had enough *smirks*
*Everyone bursts into laughters as the crapes are brough*
Elizabeth and Mary: Good day father! *Henry is carried by five sweating servants*
Cleopatra: Sorry to interrupt, but this miss says she is a part of your party...

So it's been a long time since I posted something and I apologize, again. Anyhow I decided to bring in Anne's greatest enemy Jane (well not greatest but still an enemy) and see how the next time things unravel. Yes, Anne and Henry are starting to feel for one another and Rasputin decided to take a quick camo.
Next time Elizabeth will recoline with a "friend" Jane and Anne are going to have a cat fight, and Arthur and Catherine will ponder how life would have been with them married.

So till next time;

Madame Royale

So here is the next chapter of Madame Royale! I'm still contemplating if I should post more Joan of Arcs chapters...not sure yet. So anyhow, here is Madame Royale!

***
Louis clings dearly to me as I soothe a quiet whisper. “Brave Louis, be a brave Prince” I pat down his blonde curls, while I plead for myself to be calm for his own sake. It does no use, he still whimpers in fear, cowering in the shadows. “Sister, why must Uncle and Auntie Therese leave?”
I purse my lips contemplating if I must lie. “Father thinks they will be safe, Louis. He thinks it will be best for them”
His mouth rises to ask yet another painful question, but to my fortune mother interrupts as she walks over solemnly through the door way. “Children, come say goodbye” Her eyes quickly catch mine and at once, I notice the emptiness. Mother usually carries herself with such grace, and dignity, but it seems that this swan Queen has fallen.
But who can blame her? So many deaths have arrived at court, taking our precious Sophie, and Louis. We have all become the fallen royal family.
“Yes, your grace” I tuck my hands into Louis’s as we march out. “Brave, Louis” I continue to mummer and he listens so carefully as if his life depends on it.
“Dear children!” My aunt bursts as she races to embrace us. Louis gives no second thought as he releases from my grip and clutches her tightly. I come in gradually, kissing the heads of my little cousins, bowing to my Uncle and finally reaching upon my hysterical Auntie, who in return pulls me in whispering prayers, and victory. “Everything shall be fine, we shall have our glory, those shall be punished, and everything will be fine”
Louis simply nods at this, but I know better, I know that nothing will ever be the same.
***
Elisabeth quickly fixes my hair, while she helps carry the luggage. We all rush into the carriage as she tightly clutches me, swiping my curls. “Listen, Marie, Listen”
I cannot even look at her face as she kisses my cheek gently. “You will go to the borders of Montmédy, I will come afterwards, but I must warn you child, that you will be questioned. If this does come so, you must keep in mind that you are no longer princess, so do not expect the same grace you receive. You must identify yourself as Rosaline, crossing to visit her ill grandfather, is this understood?”
I dare not trust my voice, so instead I bow my head, and with this she kisses my pale forehead smiling weakly; “God take care of you, my darling”
“I’ll pray, Aunt, I’ll pray god keeps you safe”
With this little exchange, she rises, stares upon me strongly- bearing the last picture of this forgotten princess and disappears without a second glace.
“Princess, Marie-”
I turn inhaling a sharp breath. “Lady Rosaline, Master William, I am to be Lady Rosaline” He nods and opens up the doors. “Of course, Milady”
“We shall start riding, soon. Shall I go tell the others?”
“No they will see, god speed William”
He inclines his head and strides forwards without another word. And as soon as the carriage begins to hustle and the heart of my childhood, my memories disappear from sight, I allow myself to grieve; I allow the long awaited tears to spill down my cheeks.
