Unexpected Ally

Describe a character who seems to be the antagonist, but turns out to be a surprising ally.

In traditional storytelling, we often color our universe with clear-cut characters – the hero, the villain, the sidekick, and so forth. Challenge this way of thinking by creating a character who, at first glance, appears to be an enemy but ultimately reveals themselves as an ally. Use plot developments and character nuances to set the stage and then unravel the truth, exploring themes of first impressions, deception, and unlikely friendships.
