The Golden Arrow: Part Six Treize, Lady Une, and Selzek arrived at Duke Dermail's estate just outside of London. But he was not there, the place was deserted.    "Hello?" Lady Une asked timidly to the echoing stone walls.    "Duke Dermail?" Treize's voice called.    They peered into a stained-glass window, but it revealed nothing but dust.    "I bet they got him too," Selzek said, nervously scouting the grounds for the thugs who had assaulted Une earlier.    "You mean Dermail was involved in the golden arrow too?" She asked.    "Yes. He and your father went on the trip together."    "But this house looks as though it hasn't been lived in for months. The men that attacked Vinion Une came suddenly and violently. There's no sign of a struggle anywhere." Treize commented.    "He has a point," Une said.    "Well, no use standing around here." Selzek said, still looking as though he expected someone to jump out and attack them.    "Where should we go then?" Une asked.    "To find Dermail, of course!" Treize said.    "What?" Une stuttered. "Are you crazy?"    "No. We've started on an adventure, we can't stop now. Just because we've lost one lead doesn't mean that we should.."    But Treize never got to finish his speech. A group of men came out of the bushes.    "Well, well" one of the thugs chuckeled, "Nice to see you again, Miss Une." The group of men drew their revolvers. "We never got to continue our conversation from earlier. Now, where is the Golden Arrow?"    "I don't know," Une stammered.    "All right then, Miss Une. You and your company will be coming with us." The thug with the gun lead them into the back of a wagon. They got in reluctantly.    "They're going to kill us...They're going to kill us..." Selzek mumbled to himself in the dark wagon.    "Shut up!" Une shouted. "You're only making things worse." She began to cry softly.    Trieze wanted to go to her, to tell her everything was all right. But he didn't want to risk her slapping him or something. Something about Une fascinated and frightened him at the same time.    "My Lady." He said, drawing closer to her.    She fell into his arms, crying. He held her close, letting her cry into his shit.    "I've been strong so long." She whispered. "All I want to cry for a little."
