two weeks ago
"hey I do believe we've found the President and he's alive"
"excellent, so now all we do is get him out of here and back home all without getting him killed at the end of the road"
"exactly, now here's my plan the Secret Service goes to one side of the building while the Musketeers go on the other"
"are you saying we ambush them?"
"that's exactly what I'm proposing"
"works for us"
and so that's what they do and it's an intense battle. While they were escaping though some of the criminals actually came back to the camp and so they had to find a way of getting the President to safety and avoiding the new enemies. Kerenai knew then exactly what she was going to do, she dropped her personal shield and activated one in front of the group and started fighting. Unfortunately the enemy soon got the best of her and they stabbed her through the stomach, as a way of making her suffer before death. She turned to the surviving group and says one simple thing
"go, get the President to safety"
unfortunately the Musketeers, Secret Service and the President wanted to argue, it's just that a Musketeer got to say the argument first
"but..."
*that's an order Musketeers!*
"the shield will drop as soon as I'm dead, go...now"
and so the Musketeer grabs the President by the arms and says the truth
"come on Mr. President, we don't know how long she'll survive with that wound. We have our orders to get you to safety so come on"
and with that everyone leaves Kerenai behind...per her orders. It would take two weeks to get to a town and that was because they all used evasion tactics that both the Secret Service and the Musketeers were taught. Finally though they made it to civilization and quickly got a plane to DC so that the President could get back to his countries needs
present
"and that's basically what happened, before the attack she stated that Phillipe was to be in charge if she died"
"and we still need to free France"
"well we did come up with a plan finally, if you approve of it we will leave you be and free our country it's what Kerenai would have wanted"
"and Kerenai also would have wanted America to support France as much as possible, I will spare what I can from the reserves so that you can free your country"
"thank you your...sorry Mr. President we would be honored to serve with some of your finest soldiers"
(smiles) "I know, and I also know that you have made this plan with great care, would I presume that England is to get involved?"
"not in the way you think your majes...my apologies Mr. President, as I was saying not in the way you think, we are only to ask for safe passage through the country while we head back to France. We will make camps along the way to Paris as Kerenai would have done"
"and your mode of travel?"
"the main reason why Kerenai would have made this plan with great care sir, we French Musketeers ride horses for the most part. We are required to know how to drive cars since we are a modern Musketeer force, but when it was decided to start up the Musketeers again we went as authentic as we could"
"I see, well then I guess this is why in the list these are people she knows of that are horseman?"
"yes sir, she would have liked to have used the calvary but she knew better than that"
"I approve all of them for this mission, they will get their orders immediately. When will you leave?"
"in three days sir, that gives you time to send out your orders and let them get their affairs in order"
"very well"
and so the preparations get underway to free France with a detour through England with the Prime Ministers permission. Meanwhile Lauren Kerenai was not as dead as everyone thought. When the criminals who abducted the President thought she was dead they dumped her body into the river, not knowing that Kerenai was still alive, though only barely. She would be found down river near death and taken to the nearest hospital. They would be forced to transfer her to another hospital once she was stable however because the local hospital just couldn't provide the type of care they knew she needed. She wound up being in a coma until the very day the Musketeers and reserve soldiers left the country for England
