No one knows what happened to Y/N that night, all they knew is that she changed. Her usually happy self seems dim.
The first four days she was in England and George went to apologize but she beat him to it. He was happy at first, but then he noticed a change in her. He looked into her eyes and there was nothing in them.
He tried talking to her, she insisted she was fine. When John told her to come to bed she always refused and either went out to who knows where or was writing.
"Y/N," A maid said.
Y/N said nothing but motioned her in.
"The wedding will star in an hour," She said.
Y/N looked up from what she was writing and asked a question that shocked many.
"And?"
The maid didn't say anything before showing her a dress.
Y/N sighed and took the dress from her and got dressed.
"Red," Y/N mumbled.
"Is that alright ma'am?" the maid asked.
Y/N nodded before quickly putting on the dress.
The maid did Y/N's hair as she wrote some more. John then came in saying that it was time for her to sit with the rest of guests. In that moment Y/N thought.
'He's my best friend.'

Y/N's POV
"Coming Love," I smiled at John.
It caught him by surprise but he smiled back at me wider then I have seen the whole time we have been in England.
"Introducing General Y/N M/N L/N of the United States, and Lieutenant John Laurens of the United States," The guy announced.
People gasped as they recognize my name and whispered SHE is a higher command then him.
Now technically I am no longer a General but that is besides the point.
"Miss L/N," I heard who I recognize to be William Howe.
"General," I greeted through gritted teeth.
"How is your starving army doing," He smiled.
I was infuriated by this but I kept a smiled on my face.
"Kicking your armies ass," I said.
We both stared each other down until he laughed and gave me a pat on my back.
"I am glad to see you well Y/N," He said.
"Ever think about fighting for the British?" He asked.
"As what? Your escorts? Or in nursing?" I joked as I knew I have a hard time getting everyone to listen to me in America with my gender. In England it would be impossible.
"As second in command," He said seriously.
I looked at him to try to see if he was joking but he was dead serious.
"General you can't be serious?" I questioned.
"Deadly," He said.
I stared at him before politely declining his offer and sat down in my seat.
"Acting like I wasn't there," John scoffed to which I chuckled at.

"I do," Annabelle cried.
"I pronounce you King and Queen of the United Kingdom you may now kiss the bride," The priest said.
I cheered along with everyone else and the reception started soon after.

I couldn't talk to George for a good twenty minutes as other monarchs were there he had to attend to.
"My best friend is married," I yelled and hugged him.
He was rather shocked at the change in my mood since the week started but laughed and started becoming a little girl while his wife had a beer.
"How long until you go back to America?" Asked George.
"I decided to stay for two more days and then I will get back on the ship," I told him sipping some alcohol I was given by the General.
"Excellent we will go out tomorrow night as I am afraid Annabelle and I won't be available in the morning," George smirked.
John and I laughed as Annabelle smacked his shoulder playfully.
As we started talking the subject to the war came up.
"Your General was trying to make me second in command," I said casually.
George looked up at me and stared at me before calling over the General.
"Howe, did you offer Miss L/N the position of a General?" George asked.
"Yes I did and my offer still stands Y/N," He said and kissed my hand.
John grabbed my waist and pulled me closer to him.
"I mean Y/N if you want to stay in England I will gladly let you, however, I don't think it is wise to fight against your home country," George said knowing the outcome of this war.
"I have already declined the offer George I love visiting but America is my home," I said.
George nodded happily and the General walked off mumbling something under his breath.
  I started feeling dizzy so I told everyone I was going to go lay down for a few minutes and come back to which they nodded and George started telling John about his hunting trips, to which John looked sick.
"Miss L/N," I heard Howe's cold voice said.
My vision was becoming spotty and I could barely stand.
"What do you want Howe," My voice slurred as if I was drunk.
"My my L/N it seems you are drunk," He chuckled.
"I only had one drink and you know that," I glared.
I then remembered he's the one who gave me the drink.
"You bastard you drugged me," I said now on my knees.
"And who's going to believe that doll," He bend down raising my chin.
He then came up to my ear and whispered.
"You are a threat to the entirety of the United Kingdom we can win this war if you don't interfere," He started.
"I tried getting you to join us but you refused so now I just have to take you," He said picking me up.
I felt a tap on my butt and I tried saying anything but nothing came out.
"And while I have you I might as well have some fun," He smirked.
'Fuck you,' I thought.
As I was being carried away I realized I am immobile but I still have consciousness. All the strength I do have is being used on keeping my eyes partially open so I can see where we are going.
I was taken outside the castle and into a carriage. I was placed in the carriage but Howe didn't come in with me.
"Take her back to my resident and have my maid dress her as I instructed her,"  He told the driver.
I heard the whip of the horse and the cart started moving. I tried looking at the windows to remember the direction I was going in but the curtains were all closed. I decided I need strength and drugs wear off quicker in sleep.
"Mistress," a women said as she shook me awake.
I woke up and shot straight up to take in my surroundings.
I was in a bedroom and I was in rather lacy clothing but I have worn more revealing. I assume this is what sexy clothing was in this time.
"Do not call me that, you may call me Y/N," I told her to which she nodded.
"Master will be home soon and you are to say on the bed so he may do what he wishes with you," She said sadly.
I nodded even though that will never happen as I am getting the hell out of here. 
I examined the room and saw various war memorabilia which included weapons. I was not sure how effective any of these would be as they seemed to be old and could fall apart if used.
'In the heat on battle I can't have it fail on me,' I thought.
I heard the door open and I saw Howe with a frown on his face. He came over and took my hair out of its bun.
"I told the maid to make your hair sexy," He grumbled.
I rolled my eyes as I backed away from him.
"Aren't you married?" I asked getting off the bed.
He began touching my waist and shushed me.
Yaaaa noooo.
I looked around and saw anything sharp and I saw a flower vase and decided to hurt him with it. I started to feel up Howe so he would relax his grip on me. I began to whisper things in his ear which he smiled.
"I have to use the bathroom stay right here," He said giving me a pat on my butt as I nodded.
As he left I scoffed and took the vase and hid it under the pillow.
When he came back he got on the bed and was hovering over me. I felt as if I was going to throw up as he started kissing down my clothed body.
When he was going to close for comfort I smashed the vase over his head.
"Fuck!" I said as I saw a big chunk of glass coming out of his head.
So after I just killed this man, I got out from under him as his maid walked it as she probably heard the crash.
"Ma'am," I said as she was about to let out a scream and was going to snitch on me.
She starts screaming and yelling and is telling everyone in the house to get the cops. I knew I needed to get out of the house, not even thinking about all the blood that covered me.
As I heard loads of footsteps come down the hallway, so I opened the window and hopped out and started running. This was mind you very hard as I did not have shoes on and was in a lacy dress.
I kept on running until I found a horse at a ranch. I decided to steal it as I needed to get back to the royal palace as I had no clue what time it was but it seemed as the sun would be coming up soon.

I rode the rest of the night until early morning as it took awhile to find out where the palace was. At around eleven am I got to the royal palace but the guards were already there waiting for me.
"Miss L/N, the General has been killed and you are apparently responsible, the king told us to bring you to him," The guard said.
I nodded as the brought me to the throne room were I saw George pacing. He looks up and sees us and smiles before looking down at my clothes.
"Y/N you didn't," He mumbled.
"George he drugged me and took me to his house to rape me," I yelled as George held me.
George stared down at me to find any sign that I was lying, which he obviously could not find.
"I cannot tell my people I let the murderer of the General go, no matter the circumstances, you need to leave England immediately because I am going to have to tell the guards to get you and execute you," George said seriously.
I nodded understanding as George was hugging me.
"Once the war is over and everything has calmed down you may come back but you are wanted right now," He said.
"Go get John and you must leave," He said.
I looked at him sadly but nodded.
"They are going to be looking for you near the main boats so take this supply boats to America," He said leeding me out of the throne room.
"Y/N what happened to you," Annabelle gasped looking at me.
"Annabelle I need to leave the country now," I told her.
She stared at me and George with fear.
"George can't you do-" She started.
"Y/N leave," George said kissing my forehead.
"LEAVE!" He yelled in the powerful voice everyone feared.
I started running out of the throne room and to my room.
"John!" I yelled throwing everything into one bag most of my clothes not making it knowing I can just get them when I came back to England.
"Y/N where have you been why are you bloody," He said getting off the bed as I tied up my shoes.
"We are leaving right now," I told him packing his bag and handing it to him.
He started asking me questions as we ran down the hallway and out the back door to the horses.
I strapped the bags onto the horses saddle and got on the horse pulling John on with me. As we were riding down the streets I thought it was time I answered John for once.
"I killed the General and George can't explain to the people if he pardons my crime so we need to get the fuck back to America," I told him.
John just looked at me wide eyed.
"Why the fuck did you kill the General?" He yelled at me.
"Because he was trying to rape me!" I yelled back.
He fell silent as I felt his grip on my waist tighten.
"You should have let me kill him," He said through gritted teeth.
I chuckled at this as we got to the docks and sure enough half the Royal Guard were near the human transport.
I lead John to a supply ship and we ducked so the Royal Guard wouldn't see us and we got on board.
As the ship started moving I moved up to the top and saw George talking to his guards when he spotted me on the ship. I blew my ushal kiss at him at which I see him discreetly catch and put in his pocket. I smiled and watched as George and England come out of view.
"At least we will be back in America," John laughed.
"Ya where I am not a General," I huffed.
"Well here's one thing,"John chuckled nervously.
"This boat is a lot slower than the human transport so we aren't going to get back till August."
I started blinking at him and then groaned in frustration.
"Hey who are you," the crew leader yelled.
I blankly stared at him and took Johns gun.
"You have two choices," I started.
"I can shoot you and be rid of you or you can not bother us and let us stay and eat off your ship," I said.
"I would rather die then help the Rebels," he said spitting at the ground as I shrugged.
"So be it."
