Athos awoke to find a note sitting on a wooden chair next to her bed. After he read it, he woke the others up and they began preparing for their trip back to Paris. As they left the inn, an arrow shot across their heads to the inn door. There was an envelope labeled, "Father." After reading it, Athos crumpled the letter up and anxiously rode towards the city, to prepare for the King's arrival and the sinister plan of Cardinal Richelieu. Hopefully, they would be able to rescue Emily before Rachefort did the worst to her.
Emily woke up with a sudden pain in her side. She could feel her energy already being drained, but she had to stay conscious. She thought, "If I stay awake and meet Father, he will take care of me." She noticed that she was in a carriage, and Rachefort and the Cardinal's guards were riding beside it. Emily felt the coach stop and Rachefort said, "Your doom awaits you. But first, you must meet Cardinal Richelieu." Emily groaned and said, "Ah, how many times did you stab me?" "Only once, but very hard. Hahaha." Rachefort chuckled evilly. "You will pay," Emily replied groaning, "My father will avenge me."
As they entered the throne room of the palace, the Cardinal sat on the King's throne. He stood up and said, "Oh ho ho, you must be the girl musketeer. Your mother was Milady, correct? Beautiful woman, the most beautiful I've ever known. Oh, are you in pain?" Richelieu asked as he looked at the deep wound in Emily's side. Emily nodded and said, "All I want to do before I die, is see my father one last time and for me to kill him." Emily glared at Rachefort, as Richelieu said, "Oh well, the King should be arriving rather shortly and so should the four musketeer rebels." "More musketeers than you think, my father has freed many of them from what you call a 'prison' and are coming to stop you this very moment." "Well, I'm afraid that they will be a little too late. Look, the King's carriage is arriving now," Richelieu said, as he looked out the window. Emily stood there with her hands tightly tied behind her back, and waited for the doors to open. Slowly the doors began to open, and there stood his majesties and many men dressed in blue uniforms. The musketeers had arrived just in the nick of time, to stop the Cardinal once again. The assassination plan was ruined.
