Reversal

"We intercepted the cab you took and there was no proof of what we did, we checked the apartment where you met and it was also completely clean, we followed your steps in the military barracks and you didn't manage to do much before they locked you up" Remembering all the details of the situation, Christian continued "You didn't have any file on you either and it's impossible for you to have the information by digital means, so everything should have been done with words".

"That means you only knew about the situation, you have no proof and the only one who can corroborate everything is standing next to you tied up and trembling with fear"

"So... what gives you that security you have? You don't even have a family, if you die today no one will miss you" Looking at the woman with disdain, Christian continued "Maybe you expect your teammates or your superiors to investigate your disappearance or something similar, but the truth is simple".

"Tomorrow they will discover your body in a motel, you committed suicide because you couldn't stand your lonely life anymore and chose the cowardly method.... *Sigh* It's a pity, you were an agent with a great future, but well, that's life" Squinting his eyes with his smile, Christian continued "Don't worry, I'll send flowers to your funeral so it won't look so empty".

"Do it, get rid of me and send flowers to my funeral, but never think that this will be the end" Looking up, Alexia looked at Christian with mockery in her eyes "People like you never have a good ending, sooner or later your time will come and you will regret everything you have done".

Laughing softly, Christian replied "You've got guts, it's a shame you're on the wrong side."

Turning his gaze to Katy, Christian spoke "I'll tell you one last time, confess your sins and your mistakes will end with you, I wouldn't want to involve innocent people."

"..." Clenching her fists tightly, Katy looked up and looked at Christian with bloodshot eyes "Promise you won't touch my family?"

"Is it any good if I promise? I might as well not keep my words."

"..."

"Just talk Katy, be honest while you can."

"..." Staring at Christian's face, Katy closed her eyes and looked down again.

Shaking his head, Christian sighed "If you had that same stubbornness to stay true to your job, you wouldn't be in this situation, it's a pity."

"..."

"*Sigh*" Turning his gaze, Christian spoke "Envy, Death, get Alexia out, I want to be alone with Katy."

"But Master-"

"Death, I'll be fine"

"I beg your pardon" Bowing his head slightly, Death approached Alexia and began to remove her restraints on the chair, then cuffed her and placed the sack back on her head.

Looking at the lack of resistance in the woman, Christian thought for a few seconds and stood up, then approached Envy and whispered "Homeland Security agents have a way of leaving evidence with her death, make sure you put Alexia to sleep before you kill her."

"What way do they have?" frowning slightly, Envy asked.

"They bite the inside of their mouths on 3 different sides, Alexia still doesn't so she must have some hope of survival, a mistake on her part."

"I'll make sure she doesn't leave marks" Nodding seriously, Envy gave Katy one last look and left the room.

"You smoke?" Pulling a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, Christian asked.

"Yes..."

Nodding silently, Christian walked over to Katy and removed all of her restraints, leaving her completely free under the woman's disbelieving gaze.

Pulling out a cigarette, Christian takes a lighter from his pocket and lights it, then takes a long drag and hands it to Katy.

This is a little habit learned from Dimitri.

Although Christian is not a smoker, he knows perfectly well that many occasions are lightened by a simple cigarette. Easily bringing people closer together during small talk.

"..." Taking the cigarette hesitantly, Katy gives him a deep look and puts it in her mouth, then takes a puff and sinks into the chair.

Releasing smoke rings, Christian sat across from katy and spoke looking down at the floor "I'll be honest Katy... I don't really care what you said to Alexia, but I need to know why you betrayed me."

"..." Slowly releasing the smoke, Katy opened her eyes and sighed "You wouldn't understand."

"Try me."

"I'm already dead anyway" Laughing bitterly, Katy sighed "I don't gain anything by telling you."

"You know... I'm thinking of taking a trip to Switzerland."

Opening her eyes wide, Katy sits up straight in the chair and looks at Christian with a frown "You..... know?"

"You won't try to attack me?" With a mocking voice, Christian asks.

"I know I can't beat you, I know your accomplishments Christian Grey."

"I can expect nothing less from a veteran soldier" Chuckling, Christian continued "I know you sent your family out of the country. Your little trick that gives you security is no good."

"..." Staring at Christian silently, Katy's eyes reddened quickly and she smiled painfully, then shook her head and collapsed in her chair "I'm stupid."

"You are."

"..."

"Y? Will you tell me why?"

"*Sigh*" Exhaling a large amount of smoke, Katy opened her eyes and murmured "I'll sum it up for you."

"I'm all ears."

"It all started with me eavesdropping on my oldest daughter..." With a bittersweet smile, Katy continued "She told one of her friends that she was jealous of her mother...the friend's mother is a big shot lawyer in Texas...I was listening for several minutes to how amazing that woman was."

Raising his eyebrows and letting out a nasal chuckle, Christian looked up and looked at Katy with a small smile "How old is your daughter?"

"She'll be eleven in December."

"You must love her very much."

"More than my life."

"..." Imagining hearing his little girl say that he admires another woman more than himself, Christian shivered slightly and murmured "It had to hurt."

"And it did hurt" Chuckling lightly, Katy nodded "My little girls mean everything to me, you don't know how hard it hit me to know I can't give them what they want"

"So that's why you went for the quick cash?"

"Yes, but my early retirement also pushed me..." Muttering bitterly, Katy sighed "*sigh* I really am stupid."

"You thought it would all work out, you actually had a good plan... the money was transferred to an offshore account, you made sure to hide your identity, you sent your family overseas, you even used our network to study the area... you used our blind spots to perfection."

"But what good did it do?"

"Nothing."

"..."

"..." Leaning back in his chair, Christian took out a cigarette and lit it, then began to smoke slowly as he stared at the woman in front of him.

With a few simple words, this woman accomplished something quite difficult.

The woman managed to get Christian to put himself in her place, no matter that the act was a betrayal.

How could she not?

He understands her completely, he himself would do anything crazy for his daughter, no matter how difficult it is.

But...

That doesn't change that this woman betrayed him.

"You know what's next, don't you?"

"I do."

"Well..." Finishing his cigarette with a deep puff, Christian closed his eyes and immersed himself in the calming effect of the nicotine for a few seconds, then opened his eyes again and stood up "I promise to take care of your family, they won't be in need."

"..." Trembling slightly, Katy looked at Christian's back and her eyes reddened quickly, then replied in a tearful voice "T-thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for your promise... I'm sorry for what I did to you... I'm so sorry."

Pausing for a few seconds, Christian bit his lips and closed his eyes "Any last wishes?"

"C-could you make my death a traffic accident? I don't want my family to think I left them..."

"Take it as a given, make another wish."

"..." Biting her lips, Katy wiped away the tears that began to fall down her face and murmured "My little girl will have a birthday in December and my other daughter in February... my oldest daughter wants a bicycle and my other daughter wants a video game console... can you prepare a gift on my behalf?"

"I'll add a puppy to your order."

"My husband hates them"

"But your daughters will love it."

"Thank you..."

"Have a good trip..." Calming his emotions, Christian turned his gaze and gave the woman one last look, then went on his way and left the room.

"Death, tell Envy that Katy will die in a traffic accident, also give her a funeral with honors, let our people know that we will take care of them in death..."

"You're really going to do that?" suddenly appearing from behind Christian's back, Envy continued "She's a traitor."

"It's okay, few know about this."

"The people in this mansion know."

"Then make sure they don't open their mouths."

"..."

"..."

At this point, Envy and Christian stared at each other for several seconds, while the tension in the atmosphere grew higher and higher.

"*Sigh*" Shaking his head, Envy asked "Lucifer... I think we should make some changes."

"I hear you"

"Our foundation is very weak, we don't have many soldiers fully committed to us and practically most of our people are mercenaries... we need loyal people."

Frowning slightly, Christian spoke "Get straight to the point."

"I'm thinking of taking children and raising them as soldiers-"

"Stop" Interrupting Envy, Christian frowned deeply and spoke "You know I won't touch children."

"I know, but you have to think of yourself first" Without giving up, Envy continued "At this rate we won't be able to rest assured, we need loyal people and you know that"

"..."

"I don't plan to treat the children badly either, I can take street people and starving children...in the world children like these are in surplus and without help they will die sooner or later...we will give them a roof over their heads, education and a sense of belonging they may never have."

Biting his lips, Christian closed his eyes and waited.

"Lucifer... no, Christian... think about what you want to accomplish... you know you have to be committed to do it, even if that becomes difficult for you."

"Damn..." Scratching his neck in frustration, Christian took a deep breath and nodded "Do it, but make sure they don't have a hard time... no, let's do the next best thing."

"I hear you."

"You know I will start a nation on the island, we will create the military schools in the bunker for now, I will create a new language for our country and make a proper training system... we will have two divisions, one will guard the country from the inside and the other from the outside."

"It would be a good idea, the children would have more belonging to us if we are a country... having citizens helps a lot."

"How soon do you think the training would be ready?"

"How long will it take to finish the language and everything else?"

"5 months at the most"

"Then in 10 years at the most I will have skilled soldiers who are completely loyal to us... in 5 years I can have loyal soldiers for you but not as complete as 10 years"

"We will prepare several rounds of soldiers... for now look for children who meet my requirements... just don't forget that they have to be children with no other choice, I don't want to drag children with a future into this mire."

"I'll keep that in mind" Nodding silently, Envy looked at the mask in Christian's hand and commented "You're leaving already?"

"Yes."

"I will arrange everything with Katy and Alexia... Katy will have a funeral with honors"

"I'll attend the funeral myself, keep me informed."

"I will"

Nodding silently, Christian put the mask on his face and asked "How is everything going?"

"This is nice..."

"In a few months I will go to my island to experiment certain weapons, I already have several ideas and foundations in my head, I'll let you know how it will go."

"I'll look forward to it"

"See you" Nodding towards Envy, Christian turned and walked towards the exit, being instantly followed by Death.
