Caught In The Act
''McGuire.'' Margaret had been visiting McGuire everyday, wishing that he would wake up and come to her aid, in fact, the aid of the Princes as well. Over the period of two weeks since she got married to the Princes, a lot had happened, including the fact that Prince Harry had dared to travel to Persia alone to see Prince Bane and had not returned, neither had anyone heard from him.
''Please wake up, there's a lot to deal with over here.'' Margaret was sniffing back tears that threatened to drop from her eyes as she stood over McGuire, hoping for him to wake up.
What Margaret did not know was that McGuire was fully awake and waiting for Macy AKA Sent to finish up her evil act because he heard her saying that she was going to kill him.
However, the tears that continued to drop from Margaret's eyes almost made McGuire wake up to hug the Princess of Vandersar Kingdom, asking her not to worry about him.
''Harry. Harry is gone to Persia. He's been there for almost three days and nobody has heard from him.'' When Margaret said this piece of news to McGuire's hearing, the man almost jumped up from the bed he head been lying on for one week and some days.
McGuire did not know that Prince Harry had gone to Persia.
Could Macy just be uick in trying to kill him so that he could catch her in the act and then hurry up and set things right? At this point, McGuire was becoming really worried.
Margaret finished shedding tears over McGuire, and then she left the room, only for Macy to enter the room nearly as soon as Margaret left.
''There's no more time to waste.'' Macy took out another poison, this time it was one that would totally end McGuire and have him never wake up from the Prisms Poison. It was the perfect plan for Macy AKA Sent because if McGuire never woke up from the Prisms Poison, they would never trace the cause of his death to the fact that another poison had been given to him.
One would just think that he was one of the unlucky fellows who never made it out of the shackles of the Prisms Poison.
''There you go, a little drop inside your mouth is enough to make you sleep forever. Good bye McGuire.'' Sent was speaking out loud at this point because she thought that McGuire was still asleep, but what happened next shocked her to her bones.
While Sent was trying to force McGuire's mouth open so that she could drop the poison inside, McGuire purposely opened his mouth by himself.
That was the scariest thing that had happened to Sent since she was born.
Sent yelped in shock and leaped back to get away from McGuire whom she had just now discovered was awake, but she was too late.
McGuire sprang up from the bed and pounced on Sent, holding her down and starting to yell for everyone in the house.
''Wait, what was that? I just heard my name.'' Barry swore that he heard his name being called from the room that McGuire was kept in.
''Larry!'' The next person that McGuire called on while he struggled with Macy AKA Sent was the last Prince of the Vandersar palace.
The two Princes, as well as Margaret all exchanged glances, and together without saying anything, they hurried towards the room where McGuire was kept in.
''McGuire!'' All three of them exclaimed at the same time as soon as they saw McGuire supposedly struggling with Macy.
''Hold her, don't let her go. This woman, don't let her go.'' McGuire had not eaten anything for more than one week, so it was easy for Macy to overpower him because he was weak and hungry, well, thankfully, the Princes were around so Macy could not do much.
The first person to grab Macy AKA Sent was Larry. For crying out loud, he had been suspecting her since the very first day she stepped her feet inside the Vandersar palace, so he was happy to oblige McGuire's command.
As soon as McGuire was free from Macy's grip he struggled to get up with his eyes fixed on Macy like a predator on it's prey.
''Open your hand. Show them what you have in your hand.'' McGuire commanded Macy with a weak voice because he was starving.
Macy held on to the poison that she was about to finish up McGuire with, refusing to budge when the man commanded her to reveal what she held.
''Did you not hear him?'' An impatient Larry that held so strongly to Macy, shook her violently and asked her to comply with McGuire's instruction.
Macy saw that there was no going back, she had been caught, so she slowly opened her palm and slowly revelaed what she held.
Barry snatched it and examined it closely.
''What is this?''
''She tried to poison me again. She didn't know I was awake already. She tried to finish up what she started.'' McGuire slowly got up to his feet and took the poison from Barry.
''Poison you again? Did she try to poison you before?'' Larry looked at Macy AKA Sent hideously as he asked McGuire to make his explanation clearer.
''Yes, the Prisms Poison was issued by her, though it was not for me. It was for someone else.'' McGuire started to reveal Macy's plot while she stood there in Prince Larry's grip looking as unrepentant as possible.
Larry and Barry as well as Margaret could not believe what they were hearing.
''The Prisms Poison was meant for someone else? Who was it meant for then?''
All eyes naturally fell on Margaret as soon as Barry asked the question.
''I knew it. I knew that this lady had something up her sleeves from the first day I saw her in this palace.'' Larry was so upset, he shook Macy like a rag dool until Barry had to tell him to stop it.
''Woman, you have a lot of explaining to do, and you will start by telling us who you are, as well as who sent you to us.''
