Thomas Knight

*> Thomas was an altruistic man, who made the wrong choice. I loved him, as he did me. We could've been happy, if only I'd convinced him not to go along with the invasion.

## Life

### **Life in Medieval times**

*Tommy was a prominent knight, who won various combats. He was the defender of **King John** and the admirer of his daughter **Lady Luciana**, everybody knew he was in love with her, although not many knew she felt the same for him. On August 7 1214, Tommy was perched on a destrier horse, waiting patiently for the commencement of a fight, when all of a sudden an unexpected light appeared nearby and caught his attention. The light was as powerful as though looking directly at the sun, it blinded him and he was knocked unconscious when falling off the horse. However, he ultimately found himself standing on an unknown street, near a palace. Before long, he discovered he was in Westminster in the twenty-first century.*

### **Abducted Politicians**

*After learning that the **Knights Templar** no longer existed, Knight went on a quest to try and reinvent the order in the United Kingdom. He first abducted **Jimmy Foxx**, who he forced into the back of a van outside **Westminster Palace**. He was held for twenty-four hours, before being released. The second Member of Parliament to be taken was **Lydia Smith**, who was making her way into Westminster Palace, when she was forced into a van and driven to a bunker. She was held for two days before being found by the police, although she refused to give information about Knight. The third to be taken was **Stephen Jones**, he was held for five days, due to refusing to communicate. However, after proving there was nothing he could do, Knight let him go. The fourth and final Politician to be taken was **Moira Jackson**, who was conned into getting into Knight's car, in the thought of going back to his house. However, she was driven to a bunker and interrogated. He questioned her on what she knew about Knights Templar and asked to bring the order back, although she convinced him there was nothing she could do, but advised him on speaking to either the Prime Minister Boris Haynesworth or **Queen Elizabeth II**.*

### **2020 Buckingham Palace Intrusion**

*According to a housemaid, Thomas Knight climbed up a drainpipe and entered **Buckingham Palace** through an open window. She alerted the guards and the police, but did not know what happened afterwards. Thomas crept around the building, while looking for **Queen Elizabeth**, before he found her standing in her bedroom. He locked the door, before the Queen noticed him and calmly said ''Don't scream, I'm not going to hurt you, I just want my demands to be heard''. She sat down on her bed, while Thomas explained why he needed to take her hostage, before hearing guards shouting and trying to force the door open, sirens and the police shouting from outside. He forced her to the window and shouted ''Bring back the Knights Templar or I will kill your Queen''. However, at the moment of nearly executing her, Thomas was shot by a Metropolitan police officer and fell to the floor, with his body soon decomposing.*
