Catalina's POV:
Madame Helene had us form a line as she grabbed each one of us a sword
We got into position letting Madame Helene begin her teaching
"Being a musketeer is more than fighting!" Madame Helene started, waving her hand
"It is a noble privilege to protect the Royal Family." Madame Helene continues, looking up then at us
"I can teach you the necessary skills... but only a member of the Royal Family can appoint you... Musketeers" Madame Helene finishes
Rinne and I smiled looking at our friends with a smile and then back at Madame Helene
"Take your positions." Madame Helene instructed
"Reeve," Madame Helene motioned her sword to the left
As we followed her "Sickle!" Madame Helene motioned to the right
"Jest!" Madame Helene motioned the sword upward
"Caos!" Madame Helene motioned the sword closer to her chest
"Stance!" Madame Helene motioned to point forwards
"Sixth!" Madame Helene stepped forward
While we followed her instructions
Then Madame Helene appointed us to practice our weapons more
Viveca practices her ribbon to retrieve the sword from the mechanical armor
"In my day, no one thought a girl could be a musketeer"
She successfully wrapped her ribbon around the sword, jumping to catch the sword
Aramina practiced her fans in the upper section as balls were sent in her direction at good speed as she successfully reflected the balls away from her
"People still think that"
Before Aramina smiled, holding her fans closer to her
While Renee is on the floor shooting arrows at the motioning bullseye to help her practice in her weapon which is her sling
"You must prove them wrong"
Her arrow made it into the perfect center
While Corinne and I were on the obstacle course practicing our agility skills from coordination to side flipping, front flipping
Corinne and I smiled at one another
Time Skip~
After practicing our skills Madame Helene wanted us to practice the sword positions once more
Where we were exhausted from the weapon practice
We each grabbed our swords as did Madame Helene grabbed hers and we got into positions
"Reeve," Madame Helene motioned her sword to the left
We once again followed her instructions
"Sickle!" Madame Helene motioned to the right
"Jest!" Madame Helene motioned the sword upward
"Caos!" Madame Helene motioned the sword closer to her chest
"Stance!" Madame Helene motioned to point forwards
"Sixth!" Madame Helene stepped forward
While we followed her instructions we were really tired our arms were really exhausted from our weapon training an hour ago
So much that Viveca fell down, groaning as Aramina and I watched
Then we looked back at Madame Helene who looked at Aramina and then at us
"You will learn to work together as a team..." Madame Helene told us as Viveca got up a bit
"If one fails, you all fail." Madame Helene continues
Before she stepped back into her original position
"Begin again." Madame Helene instructed
"Forward." Madame Helene commanded as we stepped forward
"Back." We stepped back
"Forward." we stepped forward again
"Back." We stepped back again
"Forward." We got into a position where we got down in a diagonal with our right hand pointing forward, as we used our left hand to support our right hands
"Good." Madame Helene says
When we got up, groaning in exhaustion and being really tired
"Are we... musketeers yet?" Viveca tiredly asks, looking up
While we got into a line again
"Meet me here, same time tomorrow." Madame Helene told us
Then she started walking towards the cushioned wall as we watched her
Then she banged her cane to motion the wall to swivel around, leaving
Once she's fully left, the five of us groaned, falling to the floor
I groaned looking at the ceiling "Who knew that....practicing our weapons is really... tiring..." I said
"Agree..." Viveca agreed
After resting for about an hour, we decided that it was time for us to head back to the castle before Madame De Bosse realized that we were missing and that she'd fire us
Once we were back at the castle, luckily she didn't know that we were actually training with Madame Helene.
She informed us that tomorrow The Prince and His Grace are going to be performing tests for their Flying Contraption
Before we resume our maid duties once again
