Fable 2: What If's

 Immagine a world where you can actually do anything in a fable game , and you are not limited to linear choices.  This story will explore something that i wanted to do in Fable 2, but i could not.  What if instead of busting Garth out of the spire this happend...

  I awoke in the middle of a cold, stone floored room.  Everything was a little blurry, damn that Lucien! he had used a sleep spell to put me out, but i didn't have time to worry about how i got here and where i was... when i looked up i saw something that could only be described as an abomination. He would have looked like a normal man if it wasn't for the spikes that replaced both the crown of his head and the tips of his fingers, and when i made eye contact with him, it was comparable to looking into the abyss. 

  " Hello #726, i have been waiting for you to awaken," said the abomination, "I am the Commedant, i run the labor force in this Spire, and currently YOU are the labor force! You must obey everything that i say or that band around your neck will shock you and cause you to lose more brain cells then you could even immagine, Ha Ha Ha Ha! Now i am going to hit you with my blade and you are going to thank me for it," He said with a wild grin.  I thought that this guy was crazy, there was no way in hell that i was going to thank him for hitting me.  The next thing i knew a blade had grazed across my face, not deep enough to do any major damage, but it left a scratch and it hurt like a ***!  I proceeded to do the first thing that came to my mind, flip this retard off.
  
  " I dont think you get it! I will hit you and YOU WILL THANK ME LIKE THE *** YOU ARE!!!" demanded the Commedant.  Now i was pissed.  I am the greatest hero in all of Albion, i wouldn't thank this guy for wipping my ass!  He is asking for me to pull out my secret weapon, the double finger flip off.  As soon as i showed him how i felt about his "Gift" he got a wicked smirk on his face that i couldn't even start to understand.  He pulled the sword back out of its scabard and went berseker on my body.  One light slash after another, i had to make this pain stop.
  " Thank you! thank yo..."

  
  10 Days Later-
  
   I was king of the world, or if you want to put it in correct terms, servant of the soon-to-be-king.  Under of the command of the commdant i have risen to the top of the ranks in the Spire.  I perform every task i am given with pleasure.  I don't remember why i came to this Spire in the first place, but i do know that this... is where i belong. 
  " Lt. #726, please report!" That was the voice of the Commedant going through my mind via neck brace.  I must have a new assignment.  I slowly walked to the Commedant's room.  When i arrived i entered the room to see the Commedant giving some poor fool the beating of his life.  Ah the glory days.  I walked towards the fool with the kind of smirk that you have when approching a beautiful woman that is ready to do anything for you... err, sorry about that, when working in the spire you don't see many women.
  " Ah Lt. welcome, i have been beating this fool but he refuses to give in, i want you to kill this useless fool, and maybe if you do well, I will put you in the rankings to be promoted!"  Please, i knew right then that he was lying.  Nobody gets promoted anymore, half of the workers are all commadant clones, but then a great plan struck me, if i truly wanted to put my name in for a premotion i knew what i must do.  I took the sword from thew commedant, the same sword that had slashed at me all those years ago, and i drove it in the place that his heart should have lied!  As i stabbed him he was completly quiet, and i swear i could hear him whisper "Mission Complet...".  I then walked up to the OTHER fool laying in the room.
  
  "Hello i am the Commadant, i am going to hit you, and you are going to thank me...

  One year later-

  " You are my most trusted Captin #726, I am ready to give you the greatest mission you will ever have.  If you complete this mission, we will be able to rule the world, and do what WE WANT TO DO!!!!  Your task is to find and kill the only person that still resists my rule, Theresa!"  As soon as he muttered those words everything came flying back to me, my original mission, my revenge against the man that killed my sister... a man that i now call my master and my friend.

  " I will complete this one last task for you master..." and so it began.

  I knew exactly where i would find Theresa, I went to the war room found in the top of the Spire, i picked up a blunderbuss fitted with a bayonet (my weapon of choice) and i grabbed a group of blood-thirsty hounds.  I traveled to Bowerstone Lake, the home of the Hero's tomb.  I traveled deep into the tomb, which would have been difficult if i hadnt been there four times before. The seal of the Heros soon stood before me, and beyond that stood my target.

  " Little Sparrow, Welcome back its been almost eleven years.  I see you have done some questionable things in the time you were working for Lucien." she whispered in her eerie little voice.

  " How did you know about me killing capturing Reaver and Hammer, and single-handedly bringing Albion to its knee's."

  " Even with my blindness i can see all, and i also the darkness growing in your heart, and the choice that you must now make."

  " There is no longer a choice, just a decision." I then let loose the blood hounds.  They charged towards the blind seer with incredible speed, but before they could reach her, they were surrounded by a blue light that seemed to drag there souls directly from there bodies.

  " You will be defeated because i have ancient magic almost 500 years old on my side." she pronounced with confidance.  She may of had old magic, but i had new technology.  I charged at her myself, firing my blunderbuss as fast as it would fire, but the bullets only seemed to be absorbed my her magical sheild.  I was not worried.  As soon as i was within reach of her body i fired the gun one last time before i ran out of ammo.

  "Do you see now how your mission is to end? You will Fail, then Lucien will fail, ".  As she finished her statment it looked as if she was going to speak again, but then i stabbed her in the right breast with my bayonet.  As she fell i swear i could hear her whisper " And so Albion's Fate has been chosen..."

  When i got back to the Spire Lord Lucien called me to his room. 
  " work Captin, now it is time for your reward, you get to see the world end, and a new one begin!!!"
  
  " i don't think so Lucien, i call the shots now!," I reached over his body took his pistol from its holster, and shot him at point-blank.  As he fell deep into the abyss below, i looked down at him with pity, but stoped caring only a moment later.  I now had one wish and a world that was all mine, the first question was... where do i begin?
