Sophia, Prince Henry, and Alexander listened in stunned silence as James revealed the Queen's plan. The room seemed to shrink, the air thick with tension.
"This can't be happening," Prince Henry whispered, his face pale. "We have to stop her."
James nodded, his eyes serious. "I know. But she's got a lot of powerful people backing her. We'll need solid evidence if we're going to take her down."
Alexander's jaw was set. "Leave that to me. I have some... connections who can help us get what we need."
Sophia's mind was racing. "But what about the treaty? If she signs it, it's too late."
James's expression was grim. "That's where things get complicated. The treaty is being held in a secure location, guarded by the Queen's most trusted men. We'll need a small team to infiltrate the location and retrieve the treaty before it's too late."
Prince Henry stood up, his eyes blazing with determination. "Then let's do it. We'll take a team and get that treaty, no matter what it takes."
As they began to plan their mission, Sophia couldn't shake the feeling that they were walking into a trap. The Queen was too smart, too ruthless. She would stop at nothing to get what she wanted.
But Sophia and her friends were not going to back down. They were going to fight, no matter what it took.
"We'll need to move fast," Alexander said, his eyes on the clock. "The Queen is expecting us to make a move. She'll be ready."
James nodded, his face set. "Then let's give her a surprise."
The group shared a determined look, and Sophia knew they were all thinking the same thing: they were ready to face whatever lay ahead, no matter the danger.
