Escape from the walls

Morning.

The royal house. Mary's chambers. The heiress got up and woke up, it was clear from the expression on her face that she had not slept well. 

There was a knock on the door. Mary said in a tired voice.

Olivia came into the room and immediately spoke.

— Your Majesty, get up, have you forgotten? Today is a very important day!

Then she immediately opened the curtains. The sun's rays penetrated into the room, forcing Mary's already sleepy eyes.

There was another knock on the door. The heiress, without thinking, shouted again.

— Come in...

Olivia said at the same moment.

— Your Majesty, you can't just open the door for everyone! 

But a maid entered the room with a cart on which there was tea and pastries, and the girl turned out to be Dorothy, who spoke.

— Your Majesty, your tea.

Mary asked.

— Miss Olivia, is the tea girl a friendly guest?

Olivia sighed.

— Even so, you have to be more vigilant, Your Majesty.

Dorothy put a saucer and a cup on the table, into which she poured tea and added it.

— I recommend the cake, it is very tasty and moderately sweet today.

Mary called Olivia to drink tea with her, but the girl refused, then the heiress had breakfast alone and took a heaped-up cake, replaced a small note. Mary read it imperceptibly and looked in surprise at Dorothy, who pretended to be innocent. Then the heiress hid the piece of paper and, without giving any sign, began to drink tea.

The day of the heiress began rapidly. What the princess did was communicate and talk to someone. Her schedule was scheduled literally to the minute. But somewhere in the middle of the day, by a strange coincidence, a gap formed between the meetings. 

Olivia was put into a stupor by this and at the moment it dawned on Mary and she offered to go out into the yard, walk around the garden. Olivia initially did not approve of this idea, but decided that a "simple" walk would not harm anyone.

The heiress went out into the courtyard, accompanied by Olivia, Zelda and a couple of officers. Suddenly, Princess Charlotte was in the garden, sitting at the same table with Chise, and Beatrice was loitering somewhere nearby. Then Mary came up to them and greeted them. Olivia was surprised by the arrival of the guest, and Zelda clearly suspected something.

Charlotte invited the guest and Mary to drink tea, the girls agreed. But Zelda and Olivia got involved. The assistant said.

— Your Majesty, your schedule is too busy for such a long vacation...

the spy added.

— Especially with uninvited guests...

the situation got heated, but then Dorothy and Lawrence intervened. The girl took Olivia to talk, and the officer took over Zelda and the rest of the entourage.

At the moment of the vicissitudes, Mary was taken to the summer house, where Ange put the kettle on so that their conversation would not be overheard. And Charlotte asked.

— So, Mary, tell me, do you want to be a queen?

The heiress thought about it, and Ange added.

— Take your time, think carefully...

Mary interrupted, saying.

— No... Not now... It all fell on my shoulders too quickly. I do not know what to do, but they have already made a minute-by-minute schedule for me...

the girl almost sobbed. Ange told me.

— It's decided, Your Highness, today we will take you through the wall...

Mary was surprised, wiping her tears, she nodded affirmatively.

Some more time passed, Mary returned to the schedule and continued the meetings. At one point, Ange moved away from the general group and wanted to go to one store, but Zelda was waiting for her in the alley, who immediately said.

— Eh... It's a pity that you won't be able to contact the control with a key ball anymore... Now only "personal" meetings. As if THEY couldn't be intercepted. And really stupid decisions are made by the general, don't you agree?

Ange immediately asked.

— What do you want?

Zelda grinned.

— What am I? Mmm, let me think about it - so that someone doesn't pretend to be the arbiter of justice.

Ange calmly replied.

— You don't know the whole truth.

Zelda came right up to him and lowered her voice.

— Yes, half of it, what I know to your friendly squad and crawl for 20 years. So keep your head down, otherwise... I'll have to resort to something after which you won't be able to crawl...

Zella left, and Ange walked into the building with a dismissive look. In the store, the girl met "7", after which she immediately spoke.

— We need to discuss some aspects of the mission.

"7" asked.

— But why are you asking for details, and not the team leader?

Ange replied with restraint.

— She can't get distracted from the task right now...

"7" asked again.

— Well, what exactly are you interested in?

Ange looked around.

— Not here...

Ange and "7" went out to the alley. As a result, the girl told about all the ideas and problems of their conceived mission. After receiving the recommendations, Ange returned to the others.

In the late afternoon, the entire original part of the team gathered in Charlotte's room. Ange retold the words "7". The discussion began. Beatrice suggested it.

— We need to reschedule the shipment when everything calms down. Moreover, now there is no need to escalate the situation.

Chise, in turn.

— Next time they will be ready, we have a surprise factor.

Then Ange spoke up.

— Or so we think...

Dorothy putting her hands on the table.

— That's it... everyone has spoken, we do not take into account the voice of the princess, because it goes for two. Charlotte rolled her eyes with a smile, and Dorothy continued, "I suggest we act on the situation.

Chise crossed her arms.

— In principle, as always ...

Dorothy replied.

— Up to a certain point, our missions had a clear plan, only after the appearance of one factor they began to get out of control, so it was impossible to predict what would happen next! And ...

Charlotte laughed softly. Beatrice asked.

— What made you laugh so much?

The princess replied with a smile.

— I'm sorry, I was just pleased to see how we all communicate like this again.

Dorothy interrupted Charlotte by putting her arm around Charlotte's shoulder, and with her other hand picked up Beatrice. Chise did not stand aside and joined in too.

Ange rolled her eyes and turned to leave, but suddenly she was grabbed in a circle and hugged too, the girl did not resist.

Deep evening. Olivia walked Mary to her room and made sure she went to bed. The heiress waited for the moment of Olivia's complete absence and began to pack. 

Mary went to the window and it opened. Behind him was Ange, who took the princess and descended with the help of a key ball. Then they left the castle grounds through a secret entrance. And in order not to attract attention with unnecessary noise, we walked to the already closed car. 

Charlotte, Beatrice and Stephen were in the car. They started off. When they reached the city,

Charlotte asked. 

— So why don't we go through the tunnel?

Ange calmly replied.

— It's important for us to show ourselves...

at that moment, Steve noticed in the rearview mirror a car that seemed to be chasing them. The mechanic spoke.

— It seems to have already lit up.

The car started moving faster. Steve also picked up the pace. A chase ensued. After a couple of sharp turns, the restless pursuers started shooting. Steve shouted out in a rush.

— Is there any way to fend off the threat rushing at us?!

Ange in response.

— No!

But after finishing the clip, Mary poked her head out of the window and immediately removed it, the fire stopped. The cars drove onto a straight road. We were almost chasing our heroes, but then suddenly another car appeared on the left, and another on the right. They began to press, Stephen stoked at full speed so that the engine made an unusual sound.

Suddenly, a round object fell out of the right car and there was a flash. Because of the light, Steven lost control for a second and turned the steering wheel to board the cars surrounding them. The left one continued on its way after the shake, and the right one lost control and fell behind.

The cars accelerated and saw an exit through the wall in the distance. But then Zelda herself leaned out of the window and shot a tire with a pistol.

Steven tried to keep moving, but soon they were surrounded and he had to stop. Zelda got out of the car and said.

— Everyone come out with your hands up!

The team had nothing left to do but get out and Ange and Charlotte appeared out of the car in turn, Steve came out on the other side, and Beatrice in Mary's raincoat appeared last. Zelda is surprised and commanding in her tone.

— Where is the heiress?

Ange replied.

— What does the princess have to do with it? We have another mission...

Zelda got angry and spoke up.

— Grab...

they started knitting them. Steve whispered to Ange.

— I hope it's worth it...

a car pulled up to another part of the wall. Chise got out of it, surveyed the area and gave a sign.

Mary followed her out, followed by Lawrence, and Dorothy got out of the driver's seat. Chise asked.

— I can't believe I succeeded.

Lawrence, re-cutting the pistols, said.

— At least there was no tail.

Dorothy led them towards the entrance.

— So, then we'll be happy, let's go soon.

Almost reaching the entrance, Lawrence said.

— Your...

Dorothy asked.

— What's wrong? Then she looked into the distance and said, — damn...

Richard's bodyguard was standing in front of them, but they didn't stop running, and Chise said. 

— Lawrence and I will detain you, and you transfer Mary!

After that, the girl overtook everyone and, exposing her katana, attacked the man, who repelled the attack. Lawrence added a burst of gunfire while Dorothy took Mary and, with the help of a key ball, jumped over the bodyguard when he was distracted by bullets.

Then the man threw a tomahawk at Dorothy, but Lawrence accurately changed the course of the weapon and it flew past, which Dorothy was relieved to see.

Lawrence and Chise remained fighting with the bodyguard while the team leader and the heiress entered through a secret passage inside the wall. In it, they ran as fast as they could towards the exit. And after a couple of moments, he still showed up and Dorothy used the key ball to take off, but then they are caught in a net from which they cannot get out, then Richard comes up and says.

— Are you leaving already? We didn't say hello or even say goodbye. Where are your manners?
