NNT: A Facade Love For Me

Hidden Chapter #2

AUTHOR'S NOTE:

These are flashback chapters so I won't have to write longer ones in the later chapters. Enjoy the past of people that made them who they are.

Normal POV

Dolly (Dolores) was running all around the anime convention like the child she is. Dolly was around 9 years old. She was waiting for this day since it was first announced. Diana smiled at her sister. This was her first time coming to a big convention like this. Diana read the giant banner hung at the top of the ceiling.

'WELCOME TO THE 2011 ANIME FESTIVAL'

This time, it was held at Danafuji, Japan. Danafuji was a big city, maybe one fourth big as Tokyo. (A/N: this is DANAFOR, the Danafuji city is made up.)

Diana doesn't even like anime but her sister does. Today, Dolly wore her Pikachu jacket with a hood. She's been bugging Diana to come with her in this festival.

"Dolly, don't go too far, otherwise you'll get lost..." says Martha (Matrona) from behind Diana. Martha is the mother of Dolly and the legal parent of Diana. It was only a year ago that Martha adopted Diana in an orphanage.

During those 12 months, Diana had open up to Martha being her parent and Dolly being her younger sister. For the first time since Diana got adopted, she felt wanted and loved since she was alone and abandoned by her parents at such a young age. She didn't want to know who her parents were nor did she care at all. It was all in the past. Diana wants to focus on the future.

"I won't mom!" Dolly yelled as she ran around the many stalls. Diana took an interest on the cosplayers roaming around the stadium.

"gosh....there are a lot of people here Mom..." says Diana. she had gotten use to calling Martha as 'mom'

"I know that's why we need to stay close." They followed wherever Dolly wanted to go.

*****

After hours of walking around buying Pokemon stuff for Dolly, they decided to take a quick break near the benches. It was a happy time for Diana. She got to be with a real family after years of being cooped up in an orphanage. Their happy moments didn't last long.

While Dolly and Martha were going to the restroom, Diana was asked to stay put and watch over their stuff. The stadium suddenly started to rise in temperature. Then they heard a massive explotion. Diana heard screaming. Hundreds of people started running towards the exit. A fire was getting bigger in just seconds. Diana went to find Martha and Dolly. She pushed away people who were blocking her way.

"Mom! Dolly! Where are you!?" Diana did not want to leave them. She kept on heading to the direction everyone was running from. She kept on screaming their name. The whole convention was burning to ashes. Fire trucks were stationed outside ready to release the tons of water carried.

"Mom!.......Dolly!...*cough....cough*......Mom!"

Diana kept on looking even though the air started getting denser and the fog even darker. She coughed more as the smoke went in her system. Diana thought that maybe they had already went out. She tried getting out of area but the smoke was making her vision blurry.

Suddenly, she heard a cough. It was faint. But she went to check on it anyways. There laid on the floor, was Martha and Dolly, bleeding. Dolly was underneath Martha, she protected her. The two's heartbeat were slow due to the heavy debree burrying Martha.

"D..D..Diana?"

"Mom...hold on..I'll get you out of there..." Diana tried to lift the heavy concrete but she was too weak because of the smoke and blurriness.

"Diana...leave.......save...*cough* yourself.." Martha coughed out blood.

"No...I can't...please mom......stay awake....mom!"

Martha hasn't moved after she had coughed. Worst case scenario, Martha and Dolly Colossus had past away. Diana screamed for them to wake but her voice was hoarse. She went unconscious.

By the time Diana woke up, she was in the hospital. A fireman had saved her. Diana wished he had just left her be so she could join her mom and sister.

After the horrific event, Diana again was a lonely child. No, she did not go back to the orphanage. She did not ask help from an agent. She closed her heart and ran away. she was homeless and alone. Diana felt left out, unwanted, unloved and forever alone in this world.

She became a rebel. Joining gangs and doing illegal stuff just to survive. She then changed surname Colossus to ENVAE. For she was called the Serpent Queen, Diana would get easily jealous by things, materialistic or not. She would end up in fights. Sooner or later, Diana might go to jail. She didn't care. It was okay if she also rot in prison, nobody would miss her.

But that all changed when she met HIM.

"From now on, you shall be known as Diana Envae, Serpent's Sin of Envy..." The dealer held out his hand for a handshake. Which Diana accepted.

"I like the name....alright........I'm in"says Diana. "do you mind telling me your real name?" she asked

"... Zedrick Ire.........." the two sealed the devilish deal with a handshake.
