Kerado rested his weight an a balcony somewhere on level 5. He examined the container, containing his father's ashes.
He grasped it tight and held it up in the air. He pulled back his fist ready to throw the container. But then he stopped.
Looking at the container he burst out tears.
"You old fuck? You took away every from me!", Kerado started.
"Mom, and your unwanted self! You piece of shit!".
"*Sniff* But why can't I let you go asshole?! Why?!".

"What you think you guys are special?", He asked.

"What are you saying?", Aiden inquired.
"..Why don't we fight.", She said.
"Fight? Hmph?".
"I won't want to hit a girl now.. would I?".

"Me?!", He asked out of confusion.
"Yeah, that's unless you want to continue your", Aiden said.
