La Force

<Chauvelin>

Chauvelin had commandeered the finest room in La Force to serve as the heart of his base of operations. It was his intention to oversee every change of guard to Armand�s cell � he would not be fooled so easily by one of Blakeney�s disguises, he knew the man. Reports from his agents would come directly there and if quick action was called for, he would be close at hand to give the order, or execute it himself.

Just as he commanded the charming Lady Blakeney to check in with him every day, so to was he commanded of Citoyenne Robespierre to report on his pursuit of that English spy, whose activities has quickly halted since Armand was imprisoned... interesting that. It was necessary to establish a heart of operation at this juncture. He had agents investigating Royalist activities, agents scouring the streets for signs of the Pimpernel, agents watching Lady Blakeney, and agents instigating the mobs of Paris... he was quite frankly swamped.

He had just returned from delivering his report to Robespierre when he learned that Marguerite had eluded his men. �� she spoke with the stable hand about hiring coaches,� the man told him.

�Then you lost her?� The man nodded. �Fool!� Chauvelin paced the office irritably. �Keep an eye on the Rue Richelieu and the caf酔 He stop beside his desk and began to jot down locations. �I�ll provide you a list of locations to search, where Lady Blakeney may haunt. She should be returning here this evening. As she has proven herself untrustworthy, I believe we shall have to make her stay permanent.�

The man lingered a moment, �One more thing, citoyen�� Chauvelin raised an eyebrow in acknowledgement. �Patron informs me that Cabarrus has return from England.�

�Indeed?�

<Marguerite>

Chauvelin stood with his back to the large picture, backlight by the midmorning sun, which gave the illusion that he was much taller, larger. Powerful. But then, that was the point: he had all the power. He had deliberately stood with his back to the light so that he could study her expressions without revealing his own. �Do remember dear Armand,� he would remind her when she struggled against his propositions.

Marguerite squirmed uncomfortable in her seat, glanced at the door to the parlour, hoping for Sanders, or Jamieson, or whoever was standing guard at the door to come and intervene. If they were they to protect her, why do nothing when she needed them most? Then again how would they know? She had not cried out for help, Chauvelin had not touched her, all that disturbed the air of peaceful tranquility was Chauvelin�s �either�or�. Either she obeys or Armand dies. In an instant, Chauvelin was leaning over her, his face mere inches from hers and his breath hot against her cheek. She shrank back against the settle, trapped � no place to go. �Your hesitation baffles me,� Chauvelin said huskily. �I thought life was so important to you... it certainly was before...� He leaned further in, meaning to kiss her and she recoiled. No. It can�t play out this way...

She found herself now before the window and Chauvelin on the other side of the room, reclining in one of the red plush high-backed chairs, his hands folded together before him, yet even with this change in position his face was in shadow. Marguerite stared out the window into the garden, rather than look at Chauvelin. �You don�t understand...� she began without knowing where to finish. How could she make him understand � he who had no regard for life?

�What don�t I understand?� The voice was not Chauvelin�s. Marguerite turned to see Percy sitting before her, regarding her from under half closed eyelids, looking down on her, his _expression bland, his voice chilling cold. He was dazzling in a suit of ice blue silk, set against the red flocked wallpaper. Where Chauvelin was the shadow, Percy was the light � but what a cold light it was.

�There are so many things you don�t understand,� she told him. �I recoiled from marriage for so long, for the same reason I became an actress � freedom. A freedom men take for granted because it is their by right of gender. And I paid the price for that small bit of freedom. Then you come and win your way into my heart, quite against my better judgment. Not because of your wealth or your position, not because of your attire or the tokens you promise, but in spite of them.� She came to kneel before him, trying to read the reaction of her words in his eyes. �We are so much alike, you and I. Both longing for freedoms denied us, both facing contempt and scorn because we set our course down a different path. You have a good, beautiful heart. You are capable of being so much more than you are, if only you would see it. You don�t understand how much I love you, how deeply your apathy injures me. I gave up everything to be with you, I trusted you, and placed my life in your hands, and yet you would take away what little freedoms I had.� She stopped herself there. If she began to list the wrongs he had done her he would take the defensive and walk away again. If she could make him understand, then there was hope of reconciliation. �I thought you of all people would understand how much I gave up for you... but I cannot give up Armand. He would not give me up.�

�Is that the reason for your visits with you little inspector?� Percy said peevishly. She sensed his resolve weakening, but the injury to his heart was not one he could so easily forgive. He still couldn�t trust her.

�Chauvelin comes to me with ultimatums,� she told him. �The extent of our relationship is one of guilt. He holds the power of life and death and dangles those options before me. You think my betrayal of Saint-Cyr was an act of malice, that is where your mistrust stems. No malice would tempt me to take the life of another. It was an accident, I did not know what the letter contained, nor did I intend for it to come into Chauvelin�s hands... if I knew consequences of my actions then, I would have given my own life to take that moment back.� She rested her head against his shoulder. �I wish you could understand... I wish you could understand that I love you, but I must go save Armand. Life is the only way I can wash away the blood that stains my hands.�

She felt his hand on her shoulder - she had gotten through! �Marguerite... Marguerite... Marguerite! Wake up!�

Marguerite�s eyes fluttered open and saw Filippa kneeling over her, shaking her arm lightly. Marguerite blinked in confusion before remembering where she was. It had been a dream, it pained he to think that if she'd been so honest with him from the start, things would have ended differently.

She heard voices in the other room and sensed Filippa�s urgency. She sat up wearily, staring at the bundle of clothes Filippa was pressing into her arms. �You must have been exhausted,� Filippa said, �which is why I let you sleep so long, but everyone is coming in now and it�s best if you�re not seen here. I took the liberty of finding some clothes that are in your size.�

Marguerite mumbled her thanks and proceeded to change into the garments Filippa provided. �How long was I sleep?�

�Almost four hours.�

Marguerite stumbled as she stepped into her skirt, turned to Filippa, horrified. �What time is it?�

�Nearly three.�

�Dear god! I am to meet with Chauvelin at four,� she exclaimed as she hurriedly pulled on the garments. Filippa stepped forward to help her with her lacings. Marguerite quickly kissed the girl on both cheeks, collected her things and flew the Comedie. While she was certain Chauvelin wouldn�t kill Armand because of her tardiness, it still was unwise to aggravate the little inspector so long as Armand was in his clutches. Half running, Marguerite made her way to La Force. There would be no time to check in with Ad�la�de or M. Leon to see what came of her letter. She run as long as she could manage, thank goodness she was not confined by bone crushing stays or she wouldn�t have last more than fifty steps. As it was she when she arrived it was just after four and Chauvelin�s man was standing near the entrance waiting for her.

Perhaps, Chauvelin would be forgiving enough to let her see Armand again.

<Chauvelin>

Chauvelin leaned back in his seat, feet propped up on the table beside him, fingers laced together over his belly. His eyes were closed and anyone seeing him might have thought him asleep, however even now that great powerful mind of his was at work � planning, calculating, weighing possibilities, counter-actions... The problem was Blakeney�s unpredictability � he was either a genius or the luckiest man alive. While it was easier to believe the latter, neither possibility appealed to Chauvelin. He had to be prepared for everything, every possibility.

Marguerite would help in this. Even if Blakeney fumbled his way through Armand�s rescue Chauvelin would hold Marguerite prisoner until Blakeney turned himself in for trial. But the only way that would work is if Blakeney didn�t know where she was being kept, which meant that Chauvelin would have to take great pains to hide her... but where?

A loud rap at the door roused Chauvelin from his meditations, he opened his eyes to see Beaucarnot in the doorway with the ever enchanting Marguerite Saint-Just at his side, looking as tragically beautiful as ever. Chauvelin sat up in his chair and pressed his finger together � the picture of calm and control. �Come. Sit.� He motioned to the seat opposite him, indicating that Marguerite should sit, while dismissing Beaucarnot with his eyes. �I�ve been told you�ve been up to mischief, Lady Blakeney.�

<Marguerite>

Once again, as she followed Beaucarnot through the prison, Marguerite was overwhelmed by the thought that she would not be able to leave this place again. Perhaps it was the inhabitants or the building itself that conjured this atmosphere of bitter despair that disheartened Marguerite. Simple to fathom considering that most of the prisons current population would be dead within the next week, if not by the guillotine then by the mob that was queuing up to have their revenge on the aristos that once lorded over them. Seeing them now, that revenge was more than satisfied.

Beaucarnot led up a staircase and halfway down a corridor, nudging her towards the third door on her left, which appeared to be an office of sorts and beside the table at the far end of the room rested Chauvelin � stretched out in a chair with his feet up. The picture of calm relaxation, which unnerved Marguerite all the more. Chauvelin was not the type to rest when there was work to be done, in fact she had never seen him at his leisure. It was a sort of confident relaxation that made her feel outmatched, outmaneuvered. Beaucarnot abruptly rapped on the door right behind her head, a nasty attempt to unsettle her � it worked. Chauvelin sat up, looking eerily composed and superior, motioning her to a seat.

�I�ve been told you�ve been up to mischief, Lady Blakeney.�

Marguerite blinked at him innocently, wondering just how much he knew and how much was a ploy to get her to reveal herself. �Hardly mischief. You know I wouldn�t do anything to bring my brother to harm,� she replied. �I suppose that gentleman following me this morning was your man? I took him for a stalker, which is why it is easy to see why I would want to lose him quickly. I spent most of the day finding ways to while away the time until this meeting. You have proven that the only way Armand will live is by your whim.�

<Chauvelin>

"Whim?" Chauvelin questioned, side stepping the topic of his agent. "You make it sound as if this were a game."

"Isn't it?" she cut in and Chauvelin sensed that he was right in deciding to keep hold of her now. He could see that he had backed her into a desperate corner and that her actions from this point on would be those of desperation. Desperate people were far too unpredictable and Marguerite Saint-Just had a lot to lose, given her freedom for to long and her actions might sabotage his whole plan.

"No. This is deadly serious for us both," he replied, leaning in closer. "You have much to lose and so do I. The difference between us is that I have some power and control in this situation, where you do not. I can see now that allowing you to run free was a mistake." Marguerite was on her feet instantly, her eyes smouldering in fury. "For your own protection, I must detain you until the spy has been captured... when that time comes you may go free and take your brother with you."

<Marguerite>

For her protection! A vile excuse for stealing another�s freedoms. Marguerite was only too familiar with that particular justification for locking her away from the world. In fact, the greatest obstacles in her life were men who were of the opinion that they acted for her protection, those who claimed that they did not to want to see her hurt were the very same who struck the deepest blows.

However, she knew eventually that Chauvelin would not be content to let her have the run of Paris, even if she did wish it was later. She had hoped to hear whether young Leon had delivered her note, and yet now she could be closer to Armand. She could care for him or comfort him until the end � if her messages were received Chauvelin might never catch his quarry. �And if he is not? How long will you wait to murder us both?�

<Chauvelin>

Chauvelin scowled, Marguerite was foolishly toying with his patience. �I am trying to help you, Marguerite,� Chauvelin replied calmly, though facts be known he was more than mildly annoyed. �It is unwise to bite the hand that feeds you. If you wish to place blame, look towards your brother who betrayed his country in order to help her enemies. You paint me the villain when anyone else in my place would have passed him off to the public prosecutor. I stand between him and the justice he has brought on himself.� She should feel very sorry for her nasty barbs, should in fact feel grateful to him that Armand was still alive.

�As I said, however I cannot let you wander free. I will have to arrange accommodations for you. It wouldn�t do to let word slip out you were here after the incident at Shipwash...� Chauvelin studied her face intently all the while; he was still uncertain whether she was working with her husband.

<Marguerite>

Marguerite was not so big a fool to buy into Chauvelin�s lies, but she had to concede. She would play his game as long as it kept Armand alive or until he was free. She did not understand the need for this deception when he held all the cards. �If possible I would prefer to stay with my brother, Armand,� she asked. He is in need of nursing and I sincerely doubt your physician will wish to stay the night with him.�

<Chauvelin>

�I know that is your preference, but it is out of the question.� He knew she would make such a request and had braced himself for her anger, she would not concede regardless of how much she begged, cursed or cried. Marguerite Saint-Just was his back-up, his ace-up-the-sleeve, if Blakeney got one, he wouldn�t get both. �I can keep Armand out of harm, but not you both. Fume if you must, but on this I am adamant.�

Chauvelin beckoned Beaucarnot to his side and whispered a few words in his ear, Beaucarnot nodded along at intervals in understanding. Abruptly both men stood, Chauvelin facing Marguerite and his colleague strode passed Marguerite out the door. Chauvelin placed a firm hand on Marguerite shoulder and steered her towards the door. �There is a coach at the ready to take us there.�

<Marguerite>

Marguerite blinked in confusion as Chauvelin caught a hold of her arm and propelled her out the door and in the direction opposite of where Armand was keep. Had they moved him, in his condition? she thought in horror, then Chauvelin's words sank in: 'There is a coach at the ready to take us there.'

Chauvelin planned to drag her Lord knows where without letting her seen her brother one last time. He might perish without ever knowing that she had been there, without knowing how far she'd come to help him... only to fail. She stopped dead in her tracks and Chauvelin, who has not sensed her action, jerked her arm roughly before turning to confront her. "What about Armand? I will perish of worry for him, if you don't let me see him. Grant me this and I shall go with you without argument. If... if there is any chance, perhaps he might see me and hear my voice and find the strength to fight for life knowing that I am not so far away." She was playing the part of the helpless maiden, the part most men assume of women that held their interest, for whom they could shine. She had guess Chauvelin had always wanted to play the part of her hero, did he still?

<Chauvelin>

Chauvelin was well aware that Marguerite was pitting his best interest against his better judgment. It was true he wanted to shine in her eyes, but he also knew she would say and do anything to have her way, even leading him along by the nose. Did she think him a fool?

Or was it so terrible an idea? There was always the possibility that Blakeney, by some devil�s trick might get Armand, which was why Marguerite was such a valuable hostage. If Armand saw his sister, knew she was near, he was certain to tell his rescuer � would they change plans in the middle of a rescue? Perhaps if the steaks were high enough� After all he held her with her concern for her brother, he could bind Armand with the same threat. Neither would co-operate with a rescue so long as they knew the other�s life would be forfeit.

�It is against my better judgment, but for our history together, or the regard I hold you... and your brother, I will grant you this last reunion.� He took her arm again and lead her to see her brother, most likely for the last time.

<Marguerite>

Marguerite was too grateful for the opportunity to see Armand, that she never considered what Chauvelin�s motive might be for granting it. At least she could see for herself whether or not he was getting better. It would give her the strength to go on, to hold her peace when dealing with Chauvelin, and most importantly to hope.

It took little time to get there, the room Chauvelin had taken over wasn�t far from Armand�s cell. The little man who had accompanied them before once again followed, with a set of precious key jangling at his side. Chauvelin didn�t need to bid him to unlock and open the door, it was done automatically. Once open Marguerite hurried in and felt her heart sink as she saw Armand once again lying in the pile of hay in the corner. She closed her eyes and sent a short prayer to heaven before crossing the room and kneeling beside her brother. Ever so gently she lifted his head and rested in her lap, brushing away sweat dampen locks of hair from his face. �Armand... Armand, can you hear me?�

The room grew lighter as Chauvelin entered bearing a lanthorn. There would be no way to convey anything she wished Chauvelin not to know, but at least she could see his face better, pale and waxy as it was. The doctor wasn�t able to do much. She caught a hold of the hand lying across his chest and pressed the back of it to her lips and then, is if by some magic his eyes fluttered open. She gasped in surprised � oh thank god! He looked up into her eyes, his hand moved to brush tendering across her skin, wiping away the tears she had not realized were there.

<Chauvelin>

Watched over the touching reunion and almost felt a touch of pity for the pair. He could practically fel the teardrops Armand brushed away on his own fingertips. He yearned to comfort her, but held himself in check. The only way he was going to win this once and for all was through patience. He would catch Blakeney and destroy him, and then he would win the lady. He wasn�t certain how yet, but given time and the right persuasion, he aimed to have everything he desired.

<Marguerite>

Armand was struggling to speak and Marguerite placed a gentle finger over his lips. She could read what he had to say in his eyes. �You must save your strength, darling,� Marguerite stroked his pallid cheek with the back of her hand, in her other was his hand, which was cold and limp. He hadn�t much strength left, hadn�t much time left. �I have petitioned our old friends for help, but none will risk their necks as we had for them only a few years ago. Chauvelin... Chauvelin said he will release you as soon as the Scarlet Pimpernel is captured. I.. I�m sorry to say I�ve helped him in his hunt...� Armand�s eyes widened in horror. �... It was for you, Armand! I could not let you die!�

She saw disappointment in his eyes � anger � and she struggled to explain. �I warned him,� she whispered. �I knew you would not want him to die and so I had sent warnings. I pray he heeds them.� She didn�t need to say what the warnings cost her, cost them both. She had assigned them both to death and yet she could not know what Armand knew � that the Scarlet Pimpernel would not let them die. Either way this ended in tragedy. Their deaths or his.

<Chauvelin>

Chauvelin hovered over the tearful reunion, listening intently, watching brother and sister to assure neither passed on intelligence or contraband. The important thing was that she was reminded why she must obey Chauvelin and that he sees that she was, in fact, here. It was key to his plans, each served to make the other comply.

Behind him the sentries moved as though moved as though confronting an approaching visitor, there was a tension that quickly dissolved, the hissing of whispered voices drifted into the room as the visitor was questioned. Chauvelin beckoned a man by the door to stand watch over the prisoners in his stead, while he stalked outside.

Leroux and the visitor stopped when, Chauvelin appeared. Beaucarnot had returned. �As the carriage ready?� he demanded.

�Yes, citoyen, I�ve selected the escort as well. It will help to tell the driver our destination��

�Not until we set on our course, citoyen. The walls have ears. Lady Blakeney is no prize we cannot afford to loose.� Chauvelin glanced into the cell again, it was almost time to break up the scene. He beckoned Beaucarnot into a corner. �I need a copy one of those silly, insipid London society pages, it must be no older than yesterday� Desgas is returning tomorrow, see if he has one. When you get it bring it to me immediately.�

Chauvelin turned back to the cell, �It�s time to go.� He planned on keeping the advantage as long as possible.

<Marguerite>

So soon? They had scarcely been together five or ten minutes and already Chauvelin was prying them apart. Armand, in a show of surprising strength held onto his sister, as if defying Chauvelin to pull her away. But Armand stood no chance against Chauvelin, he couldn't even stand up on his own. �It will be alright, darling,� she assured him. �You must save your strength. If you wish to help me you must think of yourself, you must stay alive.�

She kissed his forehead tenderly, then helped him to lay back on the hay before rising to her feet. Perhaps the hint was none to subtle, but it needed to be said. If the opportunity to escape presented itself, she wanted him to take it. She was prepared for this sacrifice since the beginning, before she left England. If at all possible Armand must live.

<Chauvelin>

Chauvelin scooted Marguerite out of the cell, then stood over Armand and registering the impotent anger in his eyes. He knelt down so that he could speak without being overheard. �I have no doubt your friends will come, but if you leave with them, then your beloved sister will be tried and convicted in your place. She will ride the tumbrel to Place du Carousel... and it will be her head Samson holds aloft to the cheering crowd. That is if she makes it to the guillotine � there are all manner of unpleasantries that can happen before she gets there. And if you disappear there is nothing I can do to save her.� Armand�s eyes widened. He got the point. Chauvelin rose and left him to stew with that thought.

Chauvelin emerged from the cell to find Marguerite glaring at him. Without a word he took her by the arm and marched her down the corridor. �I warned you what would happen, my dear,� he said without looking at her. �You brought this on yourself. You betrayed me and in the process your brother as well.�

<Marguerite>

From the door, she couldn�t hear what Chauvelin was saying to Armand, she could only imagine the threats the little man was pouring in her brother�s ear. It was not like he was in any condition to defy Chauvelin and even she was coming to believe her pleas were not what convinced Chauvelin to grant this audience. Once again she was to be a tool. Even as she thought of returning to her brother�s side, her whole body listing forward in preparation to rush into the room, the man call Beaucarnot barred her way with an arm across door.

A smug Chauvelin emerged a moment later, grabbed her by the arm, and marched her quickly down the corridor. She practically jogged along side Chauvelin as he spitefully reprimanded her. �You brought this on yourself. You betrayed me and in the process your brother as well.�

�You are a fine one to speak of betrayal, citoyen!� Marguerite retorted furiously. �You claim friendship with my brother and abuse that friendship. You claim you wish to help me, but this is all a lie! You are using us both to destroy a better man than any I�ve known for your own greater glory. Where�s the honor in that?� With each accusation she felt Chauvelin grip tighten, his pace quicken, and an occasional rough jerk when she fell behind. It was foolish, she knew, to bait him so, but her anger was fuelled by his own. �Did you even have any real evidence against Armand or did you betray him to insure my co-operation?�

As they proceeded from one room to the next, guards snapped to attention at the sight of Chauvelin and there was the occasional murmur of the prison�s in-mates. As they approached the entrance, Marguerite thought Chauvelin in his anger, might run them into the doors, but one of the nearest guards dashed in to throw it open in time. The carriage she had seen earlier was standing at the ready along with half a dozen armed soldiers to serve as escourt. The sky was now dark and the air chilly. Beaucarnot stepped forward to open the carriage door.

<Chauvelin>

He knew he was being none-to-gentle, but the acid-tongued wench was deliberately baiting him. Perhaps she had ridiculously thought he might lock her up with her brother hoping for rescue. There were times when he wondered why she couldn�t be one of those docile female who knew their place, but then again it was that fire that drew him to her. She had the best qualities of a man � intellect, wit, perseverance, determination, and passion, coupled with a woman�s compassion, beauty, elegance, and charm. But those same qualities could be maddening. �You talk treason, my dear,� Chauvelin replied coolly. He was being so patient, even Marguerite had no idea the danger her words were draws to her. �The Scarlet Pimpernel is a menace to the Republic; he attempts to tear at the roots of our democracy by interfering with the will of the people. Armand has brought this trouble to his own door. Remember that.� He finished as they approached the carriage.

"I can only hope your words are inspired by your rage, rather than your time amongst the aristos. Those ideas are not popular here and will get you into more trouble than you can imagine." With little ceremony, he shooed Marguerite in the carriage. Two of the assembled soldiers climbed in after her as Chauvelin pulled Beaucarnot aside. �No detours. You are to stay with her at all times. I will follow shortly to see her settled. No mistakes. Do whatever you think needful, but she must not escape.�

Beaucarnot nodded and climbed into the carriage. Then just as quickly the driver spurred the horses into action and Chauvelin watched them pull away. When the carriage disappeared from sight, Chauvelin turned on his heels and marched back into the prison, Leroux at his side.

"Are you transferring her to another prison?" the man inquired.

"She is being kept elsewhere and that is all you need know. We must see to the brother. I'm sure the spy must know where he is by now, it only a matter of time before he makes his face known. Likely before the prisons are stormed."

<Leroux>

Leroux�s brow furrowed, wondering whether it was the brother or the sister that was the key to the Scarlet Pimpernel�s identity. Chauvelin did seem abnormally obsessed with the woman. �And the boy? If the mob invades do you want him saved?�

<Chauvelin>

A hard question. It was one he had, and had not considered. Somewhere in the back of his mind it nagged him, and until Marguerite appeared he would have said yes without hesitation. But now he had the greatest bait at his disposal. Armand was an unnecessary liability and if the mob was to take him it would punish Blakeney and narrow his area of focus. But what id Blakeney wasn�t the Pimpernel? There was that slim chance that Armand knew who was. �So long as no men are sacrificed in the process, if not he is an acceprable loss.�

<Marguerite>

Marguerite was uncomfortably sandwiched between the two soldiers, while Beaucarnot languidly stretched out in the seat opposite her, obviously taking some pleasure in her discomfort. He clearly enjoyed the power his held, abused it, as those it were a rare privilege. The cabin was hot and stuffy from the crush of bodies, as the coach jounced over cobblestones. Curiously, Marguerite leaned forward to look out the lone open window, softly lit from behind, she had a feeling they were traveling north and hoped to recognize a street. Beaucarnot leaned over in response to pull down the shutter and plunge them into darkness.

Marguerite slouched back in her seat, folding her arms over her chest to avoid them being bruised by the elbows or her escourts. She closed her eyes and thought of Armand. Chauvelin knew the power he wield with Armand, past experience showed she would do nearly anything to protect him. It was scarcely over a year ago that she had left in the middle of a performance after news Armand had been attacked reached her. Trouble seemed to follow Armand and then was no exception. �You must come quickly, your brother�s been injured.� Henshaw had delivered the dread news, assuring her that Sir Percy was with him - how badly was he hurt? She remembered sitting huddled in a dark coach, much like this one, felting hopeless and desperate � just as she felt now.

<Leroux>

�Yes, citoyen,� Leroux stated, parting from Chauvelin to check on the prisoners.
