The Loyal Scott-Chapter 3-Fortunes
I apologize if the series seems a bit jumpy like its jumping from place to place but that because I'm trying to write only the parts of George in the Episodes of Reign so it might be good to watch the series at the same time of reading but that would be weird. My start on this series is going to be jumpy and maybe a bit confusing but at a certain point it will no longer be jumpy and I will be making the story my own. Thanks for the support, comments are asked of to see what I could improve still.
George POV
Mary said I was too much of hard ass who only takes orders so she decided that I should join her and her friends at a picnic. She says since I was a soldier at 9 that I needed to have "Friends" for once, why does she make that so difficult for me, I don't know how to have friends. I've always taken orders and nothing else except that I never learned how to speak to other people. I even got in trouble when they were talking of first kisses because I couldn't call Mary, Mary I kept getting in trouble for always calling her, "Her Grace." Of course I trying to have friends never ends well because when I showed up and joined in the conversation with them Mary was given the news of Scotland's borders being attacked. My fucking luck! I've been staying in the castle since then because I want to stay updated on what happening in Scotland but now I'm sucked in the court drama with Mary telling me and her ladies she got a proposal for Thomas, the Portuguese arse. Now that's all caught up on what's happening now I'm in the court room as there is a ball and I'm even rambling in my own head of what's happened and what im…
"Nostradamus, why don't you share your wisdom with all of us" the king says
"I don't understand"
"Always at my wife ear, what do you whisper? Use cards to for tell the fortunes of Queen Mary and her ladies and…. Umm whoever her friend is" I'm just glad the ass doesn't know my name
"Forgive me your majesty but I'm not skilled at cards and don't control my visions, they come and go as they wish"
"Just do it"
Nostradamus walked up to all of us and told us to pick a card, and I still don't know why I'm involved in this foolishness. I'm just a friend of Mary's I don't even belong in court. Lola picked a card and asked her question
"Will I ever love again?"
"You will find a mysterious dark man"
Mary played her card and Nostradamus told her the fortune that she will meet challenges with grace. This angered Henry a little and he told Nostradamus to give fortunes not platitudes. Nostradamus paused a little with his face now filled with worry. He looked into Mary's eyes
"The lion will fight the dragon on the field of poppies" it was a riddle
He looked to Greer, "You will fall in love with a man with a white mark on his face"
He looked to Aylee, "You will never go home"
Then finally he looked to me with fear and terror
Mary's POV
Nostradamus was giving us our fortunes but I was confused on what I was given. It had to be a riddle, something I had to make sense of on my own then he gave Aylee the fortune of she will never go home which angered me that he would be so harsh and say that to her. Then he looked at George and his face was shocked, he was terrified just by looking at George finally Nostradamus spat out what he wanted to say
"Your past will find you and bring death and destruction"
Everyone in the room gasped and I was confused why he would say that to George just a simple hunter. Out of everyone George looked most afraid, he ran out of the courtroom and I heard the door slam meaning he left for outside. I wanted to run out for him but as a queen I couldn't but I could talk to Nostradamus
"What was the meaning of all that, you give me a riddle, tell Aylee she will never see her family, and what you said to George I can't make sense of. Who do you serve to terrify us, it certainly wasn't Catherine she was just as scarred as us"
"I serve the realm and the truth and the truth is this, none of this I said was lies and I must warn you beware of the man who was here. He is not who you think he is, I can't even make sense of who he is but whoever he is, he is dangerous. You have been warned"
Nostradamus left the court room and I stood in awe of what had transpired I stood there for a second and then went over to Thomas for I was being called for a dance.
Georges POV
I was sitting in the courtyard where the house boats were being put in the lake and everyone was grouping together. I saw Bash and Kenna sharing a drink, the king and Francis talking business, Greer was getting comfort for what happened with Thomas from a kitchen boy, Lola and Aylee were near the fire chit chatting, and Mary was sitting with Thomas. I was alone in the field near the food lost in my own thoughts. What he said can't be true, this can't happen, I already lost. I'm in France not Scotland I let him win but from what Nostradamus says I will be forced to participate in the near future. But I won't I will not go to John it's over. The white mercenary company wiped the Dawnguard out, they took the citadel. Nether less if my hand is forced I'm glad I'm now friends with the Queen for I could use her support, and she could use mine or she might just loose her head.
A figure in the woods POV
"Do you see him?"
"Yes but do you see what he's looking at"
"The queen"
"Yes the queen"
"Calm down you two, HackWood wants us to test his resolve, who he cares for so she has to go"
"You want us 3 to try and take her out while also fighting of a Dawnguard material soldier."
"He would cut us like grass, brother"
"We plan that is how we do it, war is coming brothers but first Hackwood wants us make sure he is broken, and broken he will be when she is dead"
