Transgression of Truth

Part 1

Rating: PG-13

Archival: If you think it's good enough to put somewhere go ahead. You might want to have your head examined but go ahead. If you could send me a link so I know where it is I would love you for it.


Disclaimer: Can I ask you people something? Do you honestly think I would be sitting here, taking time to fill out this stupid disclaimer if I actually owned anything Alias? Just in case you're that…um…special…no I don't own anything Alias. Wait…I lied. I own Chris Roberts, Alex Roberts, Mike Roberts and anyone else who's in my story but not on the show.


Author's Note: This is kind of like Written In The Stars. I just really didn't like how it was going and after seeing Almost Thirty Years I got an idea of how to do the same story line…only better. So leave feedback. Flames are okay…as long as they're constructive. Please don't be too mean.

            The first chapter takes place in the future. I'm not sure how far ahead, but I'll let you know just as soon as I figure it out.

            Okay…I know that ya'll are going to hate me but…I just really didn't like how everything in my story was turning out. It wasn't emotional enough for me. I kept saying to myself, "Kerry, you'll put more emotion in the next part. The people who have reviewed want updates. You can fix it later."  But it just started to bug me. So to make up for the rewrite I've posted 2 chapters. And I think I might be able to get another one finished today. I hope that make up for it.

            Anything with * * around it is part of the letter. / / is flashbacks. is voiceovers. (Mainly Christina's diary entries) That's it. For now. I might add more symbols later just to drive you nuts.

C.I.A. ~ Michael Vaughn's Office ~

*Michael,

There is so much I need to say. Even more that you need to know. This life is full of pain and betrayal. And I know that nothing I say will ever make up for how much I hurt you, but please know that I never wanted to cause you pain. The only thing I've ever wished for was your happiness.

            I thought I was giving it to you. By disappearing. By hiding the truth, the web of lies that my life had become. But now I realize that the only way to make everything okay again is to tell you the truth. The pure and simple truth. I only hope that you can forgive me for it. *

Vaughn slowly set the letter on his desk, reaching to wipe the tears from his eyes. His head shot up at the soft knock on his door. His eyes lit up slightly at the sight of her standing in front of him. Her eyes were filled with concern.

            "Hey." Her voice was soft, like she was speaking to an injured child. "How you holdin' up?"

            "I've been better." His voice was shaking, thick with tears.

            "Oh, Vaughn…"

            "It's fine. I mean I hadn't even seen her for almost three years. I just…it just hurts so much." Tears streamed down his face. He no longer tried to conceal them. The once petrifying thought of seeming weak was now just a mere illusion. It didn't matter. Weak…strong…it doesn't change anything. We all end up the same. Heartbroken. Alone. Nothing could change that. Nothing.
