A Powerless FanFiction

Paedyn

I hate Kitt. First, he's starting up the trials again, putting my husband's life at risk. Then he goes through enough trouble to find the mother who abandoned me as a baby to bring her into this. I do not want to deal with the trials, much less the coward of a woman who abandoned me at birth.

I look over at Kai who stands there with his mouth completely open. I doubt this is what he was expecting, especially since he knew how my biological family had left me for dead if it were not for my father. I Grip Kai's shirt as we sit side by side in the bed. "Your mother is alive, and in the trials. Which means she's coming here." He mutters

I look at him. "I don't have a mother," I say bluntly. "If I did that woman is not her. She may be the woman that gave birth to me but that is all she is. She left me to die on a whim that someone may find me."

He looks at me with a puzzled face. "Pae, I understand that you have pent-up emotions evolving your biological parents. But this could be an opportunity to get to know them."

"Kai they abandoned me, what more is there to say? They left me for dead."

"Or they were giving you a chance at a better life," He whispered in my ear pulling me closer to him.

A single tear fell down my cheek.

Maybe he's right?

A small thought echoed through my mind. I didn't want to agree with him, or even consider the idea of forgiving her. It was out of the question, at least it should be.

Over the next few hours it was hectic, people bustling around the castle preparing for the people from the slums arriving. People are bustling around my room. All the contestants are being moved into the hall set aside for the participants of the purging trials.

Again I hate Kitt.

Despite the fact the Kai is married he is still being forced to move into a contestant rooms, and Kitt has ordered me to stay in my own room.

Let's see how long that lasts.

So KAi and I have been sitting in his new room trying to pass the time before our normal is officially stripped from us. After what doesn't feel like a long enough eternity, we are summoned to the dining hall. Kai was seated on the edge of the contestants (thank you Ellie) so I took my seat which was placed outside the edge of the contestants (Also thank you, Ellie)

Since we were adjusted to the palace everyone but the contestants forms the slums had made it to the dinner hall already. We waited for a few more minutes as those who were close chatted. Jax and Andy were goofing off in their normal fashion. Then the doors opened showing a man with a tall built frame, with dark black hair with a silver streak tied back.

That must be Makoto.

Then a woman stepped through the doors she looked to be in her mid to late thirties, with long silver hair with streaks of violet, and the most intense blue eyes.

Serena, my birth mother.

I watched as the two of them made their way across the room taking a seat. For some reason, Makoto seemed to be staring daggers at me, Kai, and to no one's surprise Kitt. Then there was Serena. She glanced at me giving me a shamed look taking a seat next to Mak who was sitting across from me by a few seats. With the glare that he was sending me, I was avoiding his gaze. What was his issue with me? I watched as Kai looked over him scanning over them both, but when his eyes landed on Makoto, he turned to me giving me an odd look that signaled if we needed to talk later.

Kitt drew our attention tapping his fork against his wine glass. "Welcome everyone to our first dinner marking the start of the redoing of the purging trials," Kitt says with a fake smile, toasting his glass into the air. Then the boringness of the dinner began. Serena kept giving me awkward eye contact, Makoto kept giving me glares, along with Blair, and then Jax, Andy, and Kai were goofing off like they do every time the three of them are together.

"So Serena, when was the last time you got to see Paedyn?" Kitt asked

She shifted uncomfortably in her seat. "Oh, well, not since the day she was born. I was young, her father wanted nothing to do with her, and I wasn't ready, so I found a man that would hopefully give her her best life," she muttered.

"That is such Bullshit! You didn't even know who my father was you just left me at a doorstep and walked away! Kitt Stop treating her like she's my mother, I don't know the woman in front of me. Finally, Makoto stop giving me death glares I have done nothing to you!" I screamed I had finally snapped, I was so tired of all this bullshit.

Serena shrank back further in her seat, and Kitt just remained silent, but the action that shocked me was Makoto standing up from his seat, slamming his hand on the table, and then started shouting.

"You may not know me, but I know you, and more importantly I knew Adena. I loved Adena, and now she's dead because of you, and here you are living your best life as she remains dead fingers broken, and a branch through her chest!"
