Made to be a villain p2

Standing-up in a fury, "You are not saying that Luciel Also killed our parents, are you?!" Faunus questioned.

Angry at Faunus, "The man slept around knowingly with married people, A child was born and abandoned partially because of him!

Lady Orange was clear that she wasn't his first victim! He Caused trouble for every academy he went to!" Thorn spoke-up, "Not to mention that he was a scientist who experimented on supernatural children, and amongst those children, were your own brother!" He added.

"And if your memory is already betraying you Faunus, let me remind you of what Henrietta just told us!" Yurei said, "Luciel (Lucas) he burned down The Style mansion killing multiple people including your adoptive parents, right after kidnapping a bunch of children including his own kid whom by law, wasn't in his custody because well? he's a threat to him!" He said Angrily.

"Faunus dear, this man accused me of murder!" Henrietta said.

"But...Why would he kill them? and how?! I still find it hard to believe!" Faunus protested, "Do you honestly believe that I killed them?!" Henrietta replied.

"Fau, Stop being delusional Dear." Jasper broke his Silence, "Huh? what do you mean?" Faunus asked.

Sighing, "They say it's impossible to forget your first love, even when you find your mate...I guess it's even more difficult to believe that your first love is an obsessed homicidal maniac who terrorize a whole family for four lives, because a woman broke-up with him when she discovered he was a monster." Jasper calmly replied.

"The point is, If Your so called first love did all that shit Ned talked about, and it seems like there's evidence backing this shit up, then what else do you need to believe?!

I mean the guy killed your adoptive parents, killing your actual parents is not an impossible theory, Please wake-up Faunus!" Yurei said.

"I know that I just...Well...I...I still cannot wrap my head around this." Faunus said falling back into his seat in defeat, he felt his whole body shake Violently as he tried to grasp the situation.

"How can Luciel be responsible for My parents death? he was more than happy to assist me and Fernando when we first planned revenge against the Styles!

All those lives...it does not make sense how the truth never came out." He said.

Shocked, "Wait Faunus, you too wanted to get revenge on Us?!" Henrietta asked, "Yes, at first... I wholeheartedly believed you murdered the families of us the adopted, and that you got rid of our siblings and picked the kids you found suitable." Faunus replied.

"Hold on...Faunus Did you guys I mean the adopted, knew about Grey's brother? Edward?" Jade suddenly asked.

"Yes...but we only knew him by name, we had no idea what kind of a person he was.

Unlike Fernando or Orlando, Edward was a mystery...I tried to find him, but he was somehow untraceable." Faunus replied still shaking.

"Then how come Edward popped out of nowhere?! does Luciel (Lucas) have something to do with this too?

Earlier when Henrietta came here, and I saw Grey in Edward's body, I thought he was Edward, I nearly killed him.

But then Henrietta sat me down, and explained how he wasn't Edward but Grey.

She also told me how Grey somehow found his way to Luciel's current place, when he allegedly escaped from Edward.

That's just odd when you think about it!" Jade pointed out.

Before Jade or anyone else can get any further explanation, they were surprised when they suddenly heard a soft giggling come out of Fernando.

"Haha! I get it now...that memory I thought I had of Henrietta that day...it must've been fabricated...I bet he even played with your memories Faunus!

Wow! No wonder Luciel helped me so much in the past, I was his secret weapon." Fernando finally spoke-up after a long moment of silence, his giggles suddenly grew into full blown laughter before it escalated after few seconds into hysterical Crying.

Fernando hid his face in his hands as soon as he began crying, he was sobbing so loudly, it further more shocked everyone else watching him.

Sighing, Ned began patting Fernando's back to comfort him, while everything else glanced at Fernando with disbelief and somewhat pity in their eyes.

"Oh dear...I don't do well with people crying, even people like him." Yuri said, "I don't know why I feel so bad for him now..." Garrick whispered to himself.

"Fern-...Mother..." Tacito wanted to say something but he felt tongue-tied, he couldn't help but to look at Yurei helplessly.

Tacito wasn't the only one feeling tongue-tied as Fernando cried his eyes out, No one else knew what to say or to do in a situation like this, and since it's Fernando we're talking about, everyone had mixed feelings about comforting him, just like what happened at the ritual When Faunus was sick.

Everyone felt that way, Except for Ned who continued to pat Fernando's back, And perhaps Muriel who suddenly got a burst of bravery exploding within him.

He had a question burning in his head, and his curiosity got the best of him, that he didn't want to keep it to himself, especially not after hearing from lady Orange herself, how awful Luciel or Lucas was.

"Fernando, I understand that at this moment you are feeling overwhelmed, but I need to ask you something." Muriel spoke-up.

"Muri? what's going on?" Thorn asked but Muriel continued to address Fernando, "After hearing both Lady Orange and Ned.

I believe now that you have been somewhat wronged...from losing your parents, to being sold and stripped from your identity as a living being.

to your memories being messed with, and Your unfortunate rivalry with Aroon...Yes You have done some horrible things, And yes I do not think that your past justifies your actions, but at least now I understand where you are coming from." Muriel said.

Hearing Those words, Fernando calmed down a bit as and lifted his head to look at Muriel who was now looking at him with a kind expression.

"What is it that you're thinking of Muriel?" Ned asked, "Well...According to lady Orange, the spell used at the trap party might have been Luciel's work.

If I Am not wrong, Fire was also used to kill the Bardales, the Styles and Us." Muriel said, "Fernando, your family's specialty is healing magic yet your magic is fire based mostly.

I can only assume it is that way because you were taught by someone who does fire magic.

Am I right? was Luciel the one who taught you these fire spells?" Muriel asked.

For few seconds, Fernando stopped completely crying and just stared at Muriel dumbfounded, then his eyes were filled once again with tears.

Fighting his own tears, "Oh god..." Faunus mumbled as he knew the answer already, "Yeah... Luciel taught me those things, he said...*Hiccup*...fire suits me the most...he insisted on teaching me." Fernando finally replied.

"Fucking hell..." Henrietta sighed to herself, "Fucking hell indeed...When will this nightmare end?" Jade questioned sighing herself, she then got-up and was about to leave when, "Where you going?" Garrick asked her.

"Outside, gotta smoke today's shit outta my system...Feel free to join me." Jade replied, "No thanks, I'll pass." Garrick replied back.

"I'll join you." Henrietta said standing-up, she gave Fernando and Fernando one last glance of pity before she walked away with Jade.

"I guess now we know why Jade's a heavy smoker." Yuri mumbled.

...Few minutes later...

"It's no doubt that Fernando is directly and mostly responsible for the trap party, but I think can safely say that if Luciel (Lucas) didn't mess with Fernando's head the way he did, none of this would've happened." Garrick spoke-up.

"Let's be real, Wouldn't that make Aroon at fault too?" Jasper said, "Faunus had a hard time believing Luciel could be responsible, but you're easily throwing the blame at Aroon." Jade pointed out.

"Aroon cursed Fernando, then Luciel performed that ritual...He is involved whether you like it or not." Jasper replied.

Still crying but less then before, "I'm really sorry for everything *Sniffles*...I did...I really am." Fernando said before he quickly got-up and ran out of the living room.

Surprised, Ned followed after him right away, "Where are you going?!" He asked, "I can't be here...I have to ask him! I need to hear it from him Ned!" Fernando said with few tears streaming down his face.

"Freddie, confronting Luciel is a bad choice at the moment, I just told you what he did when I confronted him! he tried to kill himself.

I know that there's a part of you still hung over Lucius...like Jasper said, first love is hard to forget, so think about him!

The story itself is hard to believe but what if he does believe.

Think! how is he going to feel when you accuse Luciel in front of him right now, that fragile boy would lose his mind Freddie!

Think about him and Aroon, those two are finally getting married, You can't ruin Their lives like this!" Ned replied, "You have to hold back, at least until they get married."

"But what about my life?! Huh?! my life was ruined because of his mother! why do I have to wait until the wedding is done?! do you think Lucius won't lose his mind if he knew after the wedding?!" Fernando protested.

"Freddie please use your head! Aroon may understand, but You can't just drop this bombshell on Lucius, trust me...his love for his mother is something to be worried about."

"Then we just have to convince him! show him the evidence! just like you did to everyone in the living room, C'mon Ned!"

"Freddie, I promise you that we're gonna nail Luciel down...you just have to trust me, and help me do it the right way, Please just this time don't act irrationally." Ned replied.

"But..."

"Just Come here." Ned said then pulled Fernando into a hug, "It's unfair!...it's so unfair!" Fernando caved in, this time he decided to hug Ned back.

"I know...and it's okay to feel this way, You can cry about it all you want, I won't stop you from that...but please, this time don't hurt someone else that you care about Freddie." Ned replied.

...Few minutes later...

As Ned went back to the living room, "Where's Fernando?" Jade asked as she walked back into the living room, "In a guest room, I gave him some sleeping pills to knock him out." Ned replied.

Gasping, "Did you drug him?!" Jade asked, "You stupid? NO! he agreed to it." Ned replied.

"Knock him out? why?" Garrick asked.

"He was still crying hysterically by the time I took him to one of the available rooms...do you have any idea about the amount of impact this whole Luciel (Lucas) situation had on him?!

But Anyways, I asked for a friend of mine to come check him later, to confirm that his memories were manipulated...So until then I wanted Freddie to stay put so I Asked him to get some shut-eye, but since he understandably had trouble falling asleep, I gave him some sleeping pills." Ned explained.

"I admit that My heart breaks for The man...to think Fernando went through a lot and never found the closure he was looking for in the end." Muriel spoke-up.

"I feel bad...too...I thought I...wouldn't...but I do." Tacito said while leaning into Yurei's embrace, And Yurei instantly wrapped his arms around Tacito, "Gotta agree with my beautiful angel right here...it's unexpected, but I feel bad for him." Yurei said.

"So what we're gonna do now?" Thorn asked, "I trust that you have something in mind, Ned." Yuri said.

"Sorry to disappoint, but I'm not sure what to do anymore." Ned replied.
