Alyssa, Adrien, and Marinette sat in a spare room at Alya's home. The Englishmen and the Queen had retreated back to their country, but that wasn't the last they were going to see of them.
"So, if I got this straight. Your foster mother was working with Gabriel?!" Marinette exclaimed.
"Yes, but she was only using Gabriel. He would do the dirty work then she would've killed him and took the glory all for herself. She probably was in on our mother's death" Alyssa glanced at Adrien who looked away. "She knew who I was when she 'adopted' me and that's probably how her and Gabriel got together." Alyssa said growling under her breath.
"Well, what are we going to do now? France and England are locked in war and the Queen wants all the miraculous's for herself. Its like Gabriel all over again but instead we're fighting an army of innocent people who are only following orders." Adrien sighed. Marinette looked at Alyssa,
"So, what do we do?" She asked, Alyssa started to panic as she noticed both Marinette and Adrien looking at her for answers, a plan, anything. But she had nothing, no idea on how to handle the situation.
"I don't want any unnecessary bloodshed. I don't want to have to kill the woman who practically raised me. I think that the best plan is to lay low for right now. We've caused enough trouble. Maybe the war will end on its own." Alyssa said trying to think optimistically. The others had grim faces but what else could they do?
For the next two weeks Adrien and Marinette went to school, trying to fit into normal life while Alyssa snooped around for information. Every night England sent bombers and France returned in kind. On the news people were confused on why they two countries were at each other's throats. Hundreds of people had been mercilessly killed already.
Alyssa walked silently through the empty halls of the Agreste mansion. Adrien was in his room fast asleep. Alyssa looked up at the clock as it struck midnight. She held a glass of ice water as she stopped in front of the large portrait of her mother in her father's former office.
Alyssa sat on the ground and lay back, staring at the mosaic ceiling. She tried to make sense of this madness. First their own father was a traitorous murderer and now the Queen of England wanted their heads. How would they get out of this one alive?
"Oh mother, if only I had stayed. Maybe things would've been different. You could have watched your daughter and little boy grow up." She chuckled, " if only you could see Adrien now. He's so mature and is trying to do the right thing. But I think that he's still sheltered from reality."
Alyssa groaned inside. While she was being raised by the Queen her foster mother had her take self defense classes that were more like 101 ways to kill a man in a minute. She was never allowed to play with other children and had to attend all the political meetings and conventions. But Adrien, though deprived of normal school life until recently, had been able to pick up hobbies and have free time.
He was still a child in Alyssa's eyes, shielded from the cruelty of the world. Some days it irked her how naive he was but being a child wasn't a role he would have forever. He should be able to laugh, play, and be merry now. Alyssa wanted him and Marinette to spend as much time together now Incase the worst was to happen.
"No, I won't let you die, I gave my life up for you countless times and I won't let you die." She murmured quietly. Alyssa stood up and went to the window, somewhere out there right now, people were dying. Just because one woman wanted to rule Europe.
There was no way to stop England, they were one of the powerhouses of the world. France wasn't weak, but they weren't as militarily powerful as England. How would three children such as themselves get anywhere near the Queen?
Alyssa narrowed her eyes, "I guess sometimes you have to fight fire, with fire." She snarled, she flipped open her phone and searched through her contacts until she found the name: Nicole Webber. She dialed the number,
"Good evening, this is the American Embassy, how may I direct your call?" Alyssa grinned,
"Hey Nic, it's Alyssa, I have a situation and I think that you might be able to help-"
