Pandora Hearts Xerxes Break x Reader: From Darkness to Light [1]

Chapter 15

I feel it like a surge running through my veins

Just kiss me and revive this love again

We could be dancing in the eye of a hurricane

They can never break us, they can never break us

No more

(Heroes - Conchita Wurst)

It rained. Rather it poured. But you didn't even notice it. You felt so terribly dizzy and your head was spinning. This feeling... It was like you knew something bad would happen.

"Look, it's raining cats and dogs", Break whispered.

You lifted your head to look through the carriage's window.

"Hm hm... Heaven is feeling with us...", you countered.

"Why so pessimistic?"

"Maybe because we are doomed to failure...?"

"Oh, no! We will make it. You'll see... And then... when everything is well again... I'm going to m-"

He couldn't tell you the whole sentence, 'cause in this moment the carriage stopped and the coachman opened the door.

Break climbed out and helped you off the cabinet.

He thanked the driver, grabbed your arm and dragged you to the massive gate of the Rainswort' manor, where he let go of you and knocked. Some seconds later, a young girl (another servant?) opened the door. She grimaced with anger and annoyance as she saw Break.

"You're just a servant, aren't you Break? So it wouldn't matter if I slapped you or kicked your ass, right?" The girl wanted to slam the door, but Break was fast and stopped it, before it could click into place.

"Haha! Hi Monica! Always nice to see you! Would you please let us in, so we can talk in the saloon about kicking and slapping?" And to you he said: "She hates me, isn't that sad?"

'Most people in this world hate Break', you thought.

"Who's this?" Monica pointed at you.

"This is... Charlotte, a friend of mine..."

"Fine... Well, I'm sorry Charlotte, this was rude... My name is Monica and I'm new here, please come in!"

For several hours, you have been sitting in a guest room and staring at the wall, thinking about Break's plan.

It was idiotic, reckless, stupid... and the only chance.

In two weeks would be the next conference at Pandora. Break would go there, of course, and you too. (That was problem number 1! How should you get there, without anyone recognising you? Break had said, there would be a lot of people, but you were still worried)

Then, in a good moment, you would replay the voice recorder and explain this whole thing, using the evidence.

(Problem number 2! Would they really believe you? And wouldn't the kill you?)

Well, be honest! This would fail.

But the worst part of this, was that you wouldn't be the only one, who die. He would be dead too...

Ow.

But first, you had to stand the next two weeks, in this damn manor house. (And now, here is our problem number 3!)
