Spring 1586
Elizabeth gave birth to a son, 38 years ago and gave him to a farmer and his wife who could not have children. She has also been queen for twenty-seven years and has ruled peacefully, until recently when she was almost assassinated. Many believe it was Mary queen scots who planned this assassination, including her principal secretary, Francis Walsingham. But Elizabeth plans to do more investigation and interrogation and to not just blame her cousin for this unfortunate event, in the meantime Elizabeth's son named Thomas was working for Mary Queen of Scots. She had ordered him to kill Elizabeth, Mary said she would pay him and his family money and security for a lifetime. Thomas agreed since he now has a son of his own. but he was delayed, since his horse was tired and they had to keep stopping, instead Anthony Babington and John Ballard were closer to the assassination, they attempted the murder.
Thomas, who did not hear the news of the assassination yet decided to shoot at Elizabeth as she was walking down the street. He had missed her, he never missed anyone but he missed her. He realized that this was his mother, she looked like him, with her red hair and face complexion. He sensed that this was his mother, but it was too late. Her troops sneaked up behind him and snatched them. Elizabeth interrogated her himself.
'Hello mother, I am your son. I was born 38 years ago and given up to a farmer family in a small town in London"
Elizabeth wanted to rejoice at this moment but instead, she asked " who hired you"
"Mary Queen of Scots"
'Arrest her" Elizabeth ordered her troops
Thomas smiled at Elizabeth thinking that they would reconcile
'I shall knight you for your bravery'
Francis then gave Elizabeth a sword and Thomas knelt down. She then tapped both of his shoulders and then killed him when he was too calm.
"I don't want anyone to know that he was my son," she told Francis
"Yes madam
