The following day I found Cyrano standing next to my bed. I told him that I wish to say my goodbyes to Roxanne for I did not know how much time I had left. Cyrano told me I had nothing to worry about. he presented me with a letter that he had written. I noticed a tear on the letter. I though about it for a second then the thought crossed my mind. Cyrano may be in love with Roxanne too. It all makes since now. Cyrano is really the one Roxanne fell in love with for he is the one that has been writing all the letters. But the thought soon passed me as a strange person arrived in our camp. Turns out the strange figure was Roxanne. She had come to see me. It also turns out that Cyrano has been writing letters for her all the while I was sick. I had no idea he was doing this. I told that she must leave. It was too dangerous for her to be here. The Spaniards could have attacked at any moment and i would not want anything to happen to her. Roxanne brought along with her Ragueneau , one of Cyrano's friends.

Some of the cadets came running out of the bushese. They said they needed help. I immediately grabbed my muskett and follwed them into the distance. It was quiet, almost too quiet. they told me one of their men had gotten shot not too far off. I took the lead and crept my way through the leaves. I came upon the body of the fallen solider. I turned back to the others when i eard a gunshot. I felt a sharp pain in my chest. I looked down and noticed I hd been shot. I fell to the ground. The cadets dargged e back to camp. Roxanne was in turmoil. She couldn't bear look at me. I lay on the ground, cold. I could feel the life being drained from me. Cyrano whispered into my ear that Roxanne indeed chose me. I looked up one last time into the eyes of Roxann and............................
