"The hollowing..."
[b]He just shuts up. Not saying a word.
But strange shadows criss cross the ground, into letters [/b]

*He stares at the shadows not understanding them.* "Y-You consumed the first flame? Are there multiple first flames? I don't understand."

Edited by Royal Blade: 10/16/2016 4:20:37 PM"NO!" [b]He sits up, darkness seeping from his very being [/b] "FORGET IT ALL! Goodbye, Sketch.."
-
"No Royal! I'm not letting you go insane!" *He he grabs Royal's shoulders, looking up at him.* "Tell me what I need to do."
-
"There is nothing to do."
-
"What do you mean there's nothing to do? There's always something!"
-
"NO THERE ISN'T!"
-
*Something seems to wiggle it's way into the back of Sketch's mind, a realization. Maybe Royal was talking about himself. Oh, and he didn't consume the first flame either.* "Royal, there always is! You found her and you've seen who she really is! Now try and right her wrongs!"
-
"Her wrongs... Are my own Sketch. I love. I couldn't stop her..."
-
"So try and right her wrongs. Try and protect innocents. Try to find the families of the people who she made Anri kill and try and make things right somehow. I'm sorry Royal but to help Anri I am going to have to kill Yuria. It would be helpful if you gave a location... Or at least where you last saw her..."
-
"Never! She is MINE!"
-
"Royal, the person she's wronged the most by far is Anri. Someone needs to die to save her, but we can't kill an innocent person..."
-
"I say we kill Anri. She's to powerful as is."
-
"Royal we can't kill people because of how powerful they are. And Anri is a good person. We can't kill her. She doesn't want to kill anyone ever again."
-
"Maybe if I killed her, Yuria would love me again."
-
"Royal, you need to give Yuria up. You aren't thinking straight. You need to right what's she's done wrong, but she killed good people. You are talking about killing good people too! You can't do that, it's not your purpose."
-
"Oh it's a great Idea! I mean. My whole point of coming to this universe was to...."
-
"ROYAL! YOU ARE A MEMBER OF THE DOJO AND YOU ARE MY FRIEND! YOU CAN NOT KILL GOOD PEOPLE!!! YOU ARE HERE TO PROTECT THEM NOW, AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED TO DO! I'LL BE D@&$ED IF I F@&$ING LET YOU TURN EVIL!" *He is serious. His ears are layer back as he looks up at Royal, keeping a firm grip on his shoulders.*
-
"I wonder.... How hurt can one be? To much. To much. So much so one turns hollow." [b]For a split second, he seems like Royal again[/b] "Was it worth it? Worth loving her?" [b]He sighs, then slowly falls back into hollow [/b]
-
"Royal, it wasn't. We are going to fix this alright? But you need to let her go. There are other people out there for you and you can't let yourself start doing bad things."
-
"I want her back! I want her to... Be who she was."
-
"Royal. What she did to Anri was her plan from the start. That's why she first came to the Dojo. She hasn't changed, she's just shown us who she really is. I'm sorry."
-
"Kill Anri. She will return..."
-
"Royal, you can't kill Anri! Killing Anri will not change Yuria!"
-
"She would return to me. Become who she was..." [b]He begins crying [/b] "Or will she never change"
-
"She won't change Royal! There is no one you can kill to change her. You need to accept that Royal. I don't want is grief to drive you crazy like it already is." *He goes from holding onto both of Royal's shoulders to just having one hand on Royal's shoulder.*
