King of Monsters

Alternate Timeline #1

???: Master how much longer do we have to dwell here in this forsaken place.

GZ: Patience my apprentice in time we will be released. I too long to return to that wretched place so that I may establish my rule once more. Your hatred has grown and it will be a great asset to our conquest. I Can already feel what you want to do first when we escape. I will help you. Harden your heart so that no one will be able to take us down. Our subjects are awaiting at our command and in time we will begin our assault.

With the sun shining down on Kushina and Cindy at a cafe Cindy is busy scrolling on her phone.

Kushina: Cindy?

Cindy: What? Yeah. Oh yeah good mom.

Kushina: What did I say?

Cindy: Something about blue crystals or new religion something like that sorry mom I don't like talking about it.

Kushina: Me either but then I found out that-

Cindy: *Yeah yeah mom. Honestly it's because she can talk about God but that's gonna make my head start to hurt. At least that's what Rias said. Hopefully having breakfast with her will put her mind at ease. She can't be continuously texting me when I'm trying to make a client.*

Kushina: *Kids these days. No respect for the elders. Hopefully that's something GZ and his apprentice can change once they are freed from their prison. She'll understand. When she sees she'll understand. She just needs a little time.*

After breakfast they part ways and Cindy heads to school where she meets up with her friends in the ORC club house.

Rias: Now that everyone is here I want to discuss the upcoming meeting here at school. The leaders of the three factions are going to meet here. Tensions will be high.

Akeno: Oh my this could be the start of another war.

Issei: Wait war for real?! That's crazy right?!

Rias: The hope is peace but all options may be on the table.

Cindy: Well if any case we should probably prepare for-

A sharp pain causes her to hold her head and let out a groan.

(Flashback)

Cindy: You being alone all the time isn't going to make anyone feel sorry for you! All you do everyday is be a burden for the rest of us. The class doesn't like you the teacher doesn't like you no one does! You're going to end up alone the rest of your life!

(End)

Akeno hovers her hand over Cindy's head. After a while the aching pain stops.

Rias: Cindy are you okay?

Akeno: It seems There is something you've been keeping repressed that's starting to resurface. From what I felt it seems it's something involving regret.

Cindy: It's nothing it's just memories from a different time.

Rias: Do you wish to talk about it?

Issei: Yeah we're here if you ever want to chat.

Cindy: Thanks guys but I'm sure it's nothing. Probably just a bad memory brought up by breakfast with my mother.

As the day continues Cindy can't help but think of her past. Back then when she made a bad choice back when she didn't know. Over and over again she tried to convince herself that it was a different time. That's she was just a kid. She didn't know better but deep down inside she knew she was wrong. When the day came to a close she couldn't help but feel someone watching her as she walked back to her apartment. When she arrives she signs in on her computer and starts a video call with her sisters.
