Blue Falcon Part 1
Coming from relatively poor family man leaves his home and towards Paris steers
Living behind his mother who because of separation sheds tears
But she knows better life awaits him if he goes but for him she still fears
As man embarks on the journey to join royal musketeers
He is a lower member but it matters not
From his musketeer friends he learns a lot
But he is unaware of any plot
He is there to protect the king but being lower member there are things he knows not
As he is on guard he spots someone trying to steal important but not royal jewels
He quickly reaches for his musketeer tools
The thief jumps from the window with the jewels
Young musketeer fallows him knowing that treasure is worth at least several mules
He fallows the thief but there is a trap up ahead
Another thief is waiting with a pistol but main character shoots him dead
But four more bandits now so angry that they see red
The fight is with the rapiers but musketeer wins and fights through the trap to which he is lead
But the main thief escapes on a horse
The musketeer finds himself at this particular moment without a horse
He tries to explain this to the prince but prince shows little remorse
Prince’s assistant even suggests main character was part of the plot allowing thief use a horse
Prince does not buy that but this argument is heard by people of France
None the less main character is invited to royal dance
People are to wear masks to that dance
At midnight they are to reveal themselves that is the romance
Main character wears falcon’s mask
The ball starts at dusk
Like everybody else at midnight he reveals himself from behind the mask
Needing some air later he goes out through back door leaving the mask
Couple minute’s later prince of France is found dead
Prince in his hand has falcon’s mask and fatal wound on his head
Main character is arrested and sentenced to hung until he is dead
He escapes with help from his friend but now has a price on his head
They join group of pirates and sail through the ocean
As former musketeer’s heart is filled with dark emotion
In a disagreement with pirate captain he kills the captain in a commotion
He now wears falcon mask as a symbol and becomes scourge of the ocean
