The girl

1557  French royal court

Francis' thoughts were interrupted by Catherine that walked inside of his chambers ,, Francis, you need to choose the future queen consort of France and Scotland, I mean you need an heir!" Said Catherine for the thousands time already. ,, What do you think about Mary de Reine?" Francis knew that his mother won't like it but he still said it. Catherine said it laughing ,, Oh my dearest son you don't know yet? Mary is gone!" Francis thought he didn't hear correctly ,, what?!" ,, she is gone my dear " Catherine was so happy finally to say that ,, No she's not! You are lying!" Said Francis while standing up from his bed ,, Francis why should I lie to you? Come and you can make yourself sure about that" Said Catherine and went out of the room, Francis followed her. They both entered Mary's empty chambers ,, Wha- , it your fault! You took her away from me! The only girl I've ever loved! Guards !!"

Unknown place

,, How dare you to treat me like that!? I am the king of France and Scotland!" shouted William at Mary because just a second before she spat in his face ,, You are not the rightful king of both! The real king of France is Francis II Valois and the real Queen of Scotland is Mary I Stuart, or easier to say: me!" the first time in her life she knew who she was, she could feel it how how a heap of stones were falling from her shoulders. ,, But if you would marry, instead of killing me, you would be the rightful king of France and Scotland!". Mary knew that William was out of his mind and would believe everything Mary would say, she said it because she wouldn't kill her for at least the first time. Mary sat on a chair and her hands, legs and hurted  so she said:,, You know that a woman isn't allowed to sit for this long or she can't have children.'' so he cutted the
 ropes that were ariung her arms and legs. She couldn't stand up at first because she couldn't feel her either arms or legs, around them were red circles that came from the romes hurted very much. Then William opend the door and the dark was full of light, Mary felt blind about ten minutes. She couldn't see anything but she still followed him, the she heard birds, water and wind. Finally she could see again ,, Wait! We are on the sea !? Where are we going?'' said Mary with a very surprised voice ,, To Scotland, I'll take over throne again and I have some armies there, you will stay in Scotland. Then we will go back to France and fight over my french throne.'' William was very serious while saying that ,, Let me go with you to France, I know how Francis acts, how he fights. I can be helpful." Mary did want to help him, she wanted to go back to France and Francis. ,, Alright, we will need your help in Scotland." Said William
