She’d had to let it happen, get taken or let them follow people out of the tunnel. Kaia hadn’t bothered to hide when it all happened, she tried to run away herself but when she heard the other women screaming, saw them kill a young servant she’d grabbed her axe and did what she could. Seating in the small room she tried to undo the bindings of her hands, “Damn it to hell!” she cursed, looking at the person next to her, “Can you get free at all?”

Babbette’s entire body hurt, she could hear voices around her but none of their words. All she could remember was running and then pain. Opening her eyes panic settled in her when she realized her hands were tied. Trying to sit up she, let out a sob when her head hit the floor again.

“Is everyone okay?” Louis asked finally putting his sword away, he’d cleaned it off before facing any of the children earlier, they’d seen enough blood tonight. There was no reason they should see the blood left on his sword.

"I don’t know what to do,” Claudia said, the admission coming slowly and painfully. Her first words to anyone but the two guards currently helping man the scanty defences. Her eyes were almost painfully dry, she could taste the smell of smoke at the back of her throat. Claudia war more personally than some of the women here and had seen death more personally than she should have but this was something else. She’d bay for blood when it was all over, the fear coursing through her feeding a need for vengeance that had been birthed so many years ago during her brother’s death at the hands of their uncle. “All I know how to do is stay calm.”

He’d been unable to find his sister, unable to find anyone but a few of his guards. Jin hadn’t been expecting to fight here, hadn’t been prepared to fight when he was walking the halls, he’d been able to cut out a few of them on his own before there had been too many. They’d been far from expecting the Chinese or Mongolian fighting styles he and his guards offered. “Shut up for one moment and we can get behind them!” Tact was still needed, even now.

Axl had been woken up to a hard fist pounding against his door, all the screaming alerting him to what was happening in the castle. Kissing Addie gently, he pushed her out the door toward safety, then ran out toward the courtyard. When he arrived, the enemy was everywhere, and he secretly wished that he’d had more time to put on more than just his pants. “Let’s try to hold these bastards off for as long as we can!” He yelled to the German men that fought around him, then turned to the others at his side. “Where the hell did these people come from?!”

emilia could barely breathe as she was pulled behind a tree as they wandered through the woods on their way to a supposed shelter. she kept thinking back to the castle. her wandering out of her chambers for water. the hand over her mouth and the quick action of the guards. being pulled at in every direction by guards trying to keep her safe from rebels. she drew in a deep breath and looked around at the small group before her. her hands couldn’t stop shaking and she thought about the people that she had left behind. she had only kept one of her sisters by her side, the other misplaced in the chaos. her brother she hadn’t seen, since the attack began. and her husband. she didn’t know if they were okay and it was killing her. “how do we even know this place is safe?” she said as they spotted the farm house in the night light.

It had been a blur since their guards had swept them on the boats and after confirming that her husband was nowhere to be found, she turned her attention to the panicking women around her. “Be calm.” She commanded, her unfamiliar accent turning heads, though it did little good. These people had nerves as weak as silk.
