Synopsis
In a world where heroes are revered and villains are feared, a sinister truth lurks beneath the surface. "Mask of the Betrayer: When the Hero Becomes the Villain" unravels the twisted tale of a hero-turned-villain driven by a dark vendetta. Once hailed as the epitome of righteousness, the protagonist harbors a secret fueled by vengeance. Behind the facade of a benevolent savior lies a heart seething with rage and betrayal. Betrayed by one of their own, the hero's journey takes a chilling turn as they orchestrate a Machiavellian plot to eradicate their fellow heroes. Driven by the harrowing memories of a shattered past, the hero's descent into darkness is a calculated symphony of deceit and malevolence. With every smile they feign, their thirst for retribution grows, envisioning the demise of their former allies in the most gruesome of ways. Yet, amidst the chaos, a glimmer of truth emerges. The villains, long demonized by society, become unlikely guardians of humanity, forced to rally against the very hero they once revered. As alliances shift and betrayals abound, the lines between good and evil blur, leaving only the chilling realization that sometimes, the greatest threat lies within. The Villain believed that the Political system was wrong, the government harassed the poor, and hierarchy is abundant, but the Villain found out about something that would change what he believed in for the better or worse. The hero is superficial pretending to be nice and just, the heroes that he trusted when he was a child were actually who killed his parents. Those 'heroes' said that his parents committed 'suicide' in front of the media. This enraged him of course. The humans blamed him, ridiculed him, and bullied him for what had happened. That's why he created a separate identity to pretend to be the just and good hero, protecting them, but that is far from the truth. they shall feel fear, the same as what they gave him.

Chapter 1 - prologue

" Francis, Listen to me. " said his mother with blood gushing from her head, Francis just cried silently. " You will be alright, Just don't make any noise." said his mother smiling to hide the pain, she was also stabbed in her stomach, and then she closed the closet door, she peeked from the holes in the closet to see what was happening. Someone suddenly knocked on the door. " Shit." said the mother, when all of a sudden the door went flying, sending debris everywhere. " Mrs. GRACE  we know that you almost leaked that confidential information that you have" said the man with white hair and a well-built body, wearing a suit. " I don't know what you mean." said his mother, he could hear them clearly, they are just outside the closet. " Don't act dumb, we all know you had the flash drive, now WHERE. IS. IT" grace shook her head, the flash drive was with her son, and she handed it to him before hiding him in the closet... Francis held the flash drive in his hand tightly

' Don't give it, or, show it, keep this hidden at all times" said his mother earlier. 

He saw his mother floating in the air, the man's hands were upright, clearly lifting the woman up into the air. Choking, begging to be let down. He knows this man, he saw him in one of those news on the tv.

" Mr. Hilton please stop." said the woman with a choke, the blood and tears mixing together, 

oh now he remembers, this is President Hilton. the one and only president of the heroes' guild.. 

Unexpectedly his mother used some sort of magic, that came out of her hands but it was weak. it shone blue, she hit Hilton with this magic, the magic went straight to his body making the president bleed, but the president healed himself and threw this black sharp thingy that he conjured towards her mother. he wanted to stop him, but her mother told him not to, her sacrifice would go to waste if he went outside. he looks at his surroundings and touched the surrounding area of the cabinet and he felt something, a door knob of some sort. 

He heard a loud thud and saw his mother's skull was bashed open. this is cruel, he held in the gasp he was about to do. " I need the cleanup team" he heard the president say coldly. his mother just lay there lifeless, once he heard that the men were gone he slowly crept out and went to his mother careful not to step into any blood, he might get traced if he were to step on it, he is after all a witty 7-year-old child. 

he cried in front of his mother's lifeless body, this scene horrifies him for sure, so he goes back inside the closet, closes it behind his back, and then twists the handle he found earlier, a secret passageway opens, he goes inside and closed the door, then he slowly crawled in this claustrophobic place, found a small stair, he can finally walk normally now, he went down and down and down until he found a door, he is now outside, the rain pouring on his head.

'what does this contain' he thought to himself, this is definitely important, he hid it on his trousers, careful not to damage it by the rain, he ran through a shed and waited
