Truth and Hope or Lies and Despair

Chapter 30.5 "Christopher's Story"

A/N: Story of Christopher. Sorry if he sort of sounds like Kira :P

-- Before the Faye household was attacked --

~* Christopher's POV *~

"Do you remember the group that was on the newspapers? The Dark Knights?" Liam, my best friend, questioned. I glanced at him.

I nodded, "They tried to assassinate the Queen but failed because the Queen's Guard Dog stopped them."

"Well, what do you think of them?"

"Why are you so serious all of a sudden?" I chuckled but stopped, noticing he wasn't laughing as well.

"Just answer the question."

"I believe that they were actually good. They tried to get rid of our corrupt government. I supported them, I guess," I shrugged. Liam and I have been researching lately about the Queen's dirty tricks she has up her sleeves. Apparently, she has the Phantomhive's do all her dirty work. They are known as the Queen's Guard Dog, the evil nobles. The world would be a better place without them. That is what I believe.

"What if I tell you I am the Dark Knight's successor?" he asked.

I stared at him for a moment before bursting out laughing, "Haha, right. And I am an alien."

"No, I am dead serious."

One look at him and I knew he was telling the truth. My eyes widened, "Seriously?"

He nodded.

"Wow, that's amazing," I grinned, slapping him on the back. He winced at my strength and glared at me, "You never take anything seriously."

"I take stuff seriously," I defended myself.

He rolled his eyes, "I just told you I am the son of the Dark Knight's leader and all you have to say is that it's 'amazing'."

"Because it is amazing," I smiled, "And I've known you long enough to know you will be an amazing leader."

"Well, that's the thing," he sighed, "I don't want to be the leader."

"If I were you, I would erase all the evils of the world. Make it safe for the good people to live in harmony," I stated, my lips curling forward as I thought of my little sister. I want to keep her safe and to shield her from the horrible things that goes on. Murder, thievery, cruelty... everything that is terrible.

"Too be honest, you would probably be a better leader than me," Liam said.

I shrugged, "I wouldn't mind being in that position."

"Who knows? I might give up the position and give it to you," he joked, elbowing me in the stomach. I groaned in pain. We laughed at each other, like there was no problems to worry about.

But then everything changed.

All the happy and carefree times disappeared in an instant. A killer broke into my house. I lost my mother... father... and sister. A demon's claws ripped through my chest and tried to kill me then dared to even take my sister away and tortured her. I wasn't strong enough to save her or save my family. I was weak. I was useless. I vowed to make myself strong.

I woke up in a hospital, the doctors saying it was a miracle I survived.

I remember Liam sitting by my bed side as the Scotland Yard informed me of what had happened. I didn't cry. I wasn't sad. All I felt was this burning anger. I was furious. I blamed the Scotland Yard for being useless. I blamed the Queen for not doing everything in her power to catch the killer. I blamed everyone for not being there when my family was murdered. I was just beyond mad.

I knew there was something wrong with me when I had almost killed a doctor for pissing me off. I was just angry at everything and everyone. I heard that my sister was alive and that was the first time in a while I had smiled. But I knew I couldn't see her. Not like this. She knew me as the happy brother, the caring one. This rude, sarcastic, cruel man I am.. She wouldn't even recognize me.

She has been brainwashed by the Queen and her Guard Dog. I will save her. She will rule by my side. 

Before I be with her, I need to make this world a better place. Erase the evil. Get rid of the people that takes away happiness. I will rule this country and it will be a place where my sister and I could live without any worries of the evil of this world.

And then finally... Venus and I can be a family once again.

~ Present Time ~

I stood in front of the Queen's castle, my men behind me and Liam beside me, all ready to attack. Tonight, we end this. We get rid of the corrupted ruler. And then it is one step closer to the perfect place I envisioned.

And with one simple command, I knew there was no going back,

"Bring me the Queen's head!"

Venus... hold on, we are almost there.
