Chapter Text
Hello! I've decided to write this fanfiction because I was inspired by the cover. Before I start on with the Story, I'd like to brief out the plot-line.
Lance McClain, a 19-year old boy, was raised as a girl for all his life(due to his extremely feminine appearance), as his family needed a heiress in order to form a strong marriage alliance. Most of the time, he goes by the name 'Lucy', and only his mother, his older sister Allura and Katie, his best friend, knows his true gender.
Keith Kogane is a 21-year old agent, working for "The Blade", an Organisation seeking to uncover the horrific secrets of some of the most influential families.Recently, he discovered that his mother, whom he believed to be dead, is actually working in the Blade's American HQ. He also has a passion for art.
Katie Holt, 17, knows Lance since infancy, and is Lance's closest confidant. She does her best to help Lance adapt to his life as an aristocratic woman. Her family, though very rich, is extremely kind, intelligent, and works undercover alongside with the Blade. In fact, Katie's older brother, Matt Holt(22) is a Blade member.
Hunk Garrett, aged 24, is the Chief Engineer of Titanic, who initially befriends Lance and Katie, and later comes to know of Lance's gender issue. He supports Lance in every way possible, and constantly cheers him up.
Takashi Shirogane(26), Captain of Titanic, is Keith's mentor.He helped Keith to discover his sexuality, being an openly gay person himself. He stays a true Captain until the very end, risking his life to save others.
Allura(22) was adopted by the McClains when she was twelve. Since she was not the true heiress, the burden of marriage was placed on Lance. Unable to see her brother suffer and eventually meeting his fate, she ran away a couple years ago to Austria.
Lotor Daibazaal, 27, is the sole heir of the Daibazaal family, who is set to marry "Lucy" McClain. He doesn't really love his fiancee, and sees her as only as a Political asset.
Adam W. Shirogane(27), Captain of "Carpathia" and Takashi's husband, was able to intercept the S.O.S signals of Titanic quickly and was able to save many (not all) lives
Other than this, the plot line's pretty much the same - Ship sails, hits iceberg and sinks.
I portrayed Hunk as a 24-year old, as no one would accept the ideas of a 19-year old boy, no matter how prodigious he may be.
I also had to portray the McClains as really horrible parents for the sake of this AU. I Sincerely apologize for it.
So, That's it, I guess. hope you enjoy this story.
