"Who do you think is ruling our kingdoms?" Arthur muttered as he looked down at his son as he addressed Francis.

"I don't know." Francis muttered in response.

"We have to take back control to our kingdoms." Arthur may have muttered, but his voice was steely in it's determination despite the volume and his eyes darkened in their green coloration in determination.

"Oui." Francis muttered yet again, "Soon."

The Frenchman reached out to hug the British Queen of another kingdom as if cherishing his last moments to do so.

"After Arthur heals," Vash told them quietly, "And his son will have to be hidden until we can stabilize all of the kingdoms and eliminate the threat imposed on every last one of royalty."

Francis nodded though he didn't let go of Arthur, and Arthur managed to ask them, "Who all is left of the other kingdoms?"

"Queen Elizabeta of the Clubs' Kingdom is missing as well as one of their heirs, Natalya. They could have died though their bodies weren't in the list of those found in the castle. Queen Kiku who was pregnant is missing as well as Jack Feliciano of The Hearts' Kingdom. No one knows if the heir was born successfully or not or if they're both dead." Vash sighed though he knew that no one knew whether they were alive or not as well.

"I hope they made it." Arthur muttered finally as he digested those pieces of information.

"Me too." The French King finally muttered in reply as well.


She whispered, "Can we do something for the kingdoms?"

Gilbert replied, "I'm not allowed to pick favorites."

"Since when did you follow the rules?" Elizabeta challenged him with a smirk.

"Never." Gilbert smirked back at her. "Why do people think that I will do so so often?"

"Who knows?" Matthew muttered.
