Above: Alexei and his parents on the Imperial train
What is he even doing here? He was banished and then supposed to have been dead. "Felix?" She says quietly, I know he's not a good husband to her, I don't trust him in any way, He killed Rasputin in the most horrific way, The man who took me out of that horrific pain caused by my disease. He comes up to the window and I can see his thin face "It's me Irina." He opens the door and moves her over to sit in the middle, Like he owns the place "Where's Bebe?" She asks quietly, He always said they shouldn't have been a child and now he's abandoned her? "She went with your mother. Who's in the corner?" He looks over at me and I refuse to shrink when he looks at me with his beady eyes, I can't shrink if I'm going to be on the throne "It's Alexei." She says, I notice how cool she gets in his presence, Like strangers, Not like married couples "Alexeis dead, Who is that?" He laughs and anger starts to boil up in me, He is the one that should be dead he caused our downfall "It is me, The future Tsar." I sit up, Still in pain from the Hematoma and I see his face go white "H-How?" He's a coward and he knows it "That doesn't matter." I sit up straight and look him in the eye, I can't shrink away anymore, I have to be strong, A strong leader like Peter the great or Alexey who I'm named after "We need money darling." Irina says and I can see she's unhappy behind her eyes, I pity her for marrying him "I don't have any, It's all in Petersburg." He looks at her coldly, "Then we go back there." I sit up straight and they both look at me as if I'm crazy, But if we can get in, All the palaces are abandoned, I know it's crazy but if I'm going to be Tsar I need money and I need Petersburg "No." He says simply and I stare him in the eye "Then get out, We were fine." I know I'm only thirteen but he needs to respect me or I'll banish him like my father did "Excuse me?" He laughs "I said get out if you're not going to help," I say sternly and I see something in his eyes give in "Fine, But I'm not going down with you." He starts driving us off into the night
It takes several days to get to Petersburg, We need a driver, We're all to recognizable, All that's left to do is somehow get rid of Lenin and I can bring my family back and we'll be safe just like Mikhail wanted and what needs to happen.
