Chapter 25 - CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE: BUT I DON'T HAVE A DREAM.

SOMEWHERE IN AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT LAND; EUPHORA.

HYDE'S POINT OF VIEW.

It is a sunny day upon the grassy, flowery mountain but the only pleasant thing to me is -her presence-, presently she rocks about in her wheelchair humming sweetly and knitting, "Tell me something Hyde…" I look down at her solemnly "You want to ask the brainless Hyde a question?" I retort oddly, she smiles while momentarily looking up at me, her blonde cascading hair, emerald green doe eyes, pink heart lips and small face are complimennted by the sun to make her look absolutely lovely, "You're not brainless Hyde" she mutters simply before looking down to carry on her knitting, I regard her in interest, then she asks "What do you think the real measure of strength is?" she chuckles "Is it charging forth in fury at your cousins and ruining everything in your uncle's mansion?" I blush in shame and she continues, "Or is it being a former beast mercenary reduced to nothing but a lame bore?..." "You're not a bore Ris!" I cut her in, staring earnestly into her startled eyes, she smiles and intones "Hyde…I'm way older than you, you know", there is an awkward silence as I redden up "Or is true strength finding your dream and pursuing it to the very end?" she suddenly adds, I gulp hard "But…I don't have a dream"

HYDE'S POV END

PANDORA.

Rave tackles these people excellently, he''s got everybody to the floor and currently he faces Sesugh, Sesugh has an impressed expression "So you've got all my men down to zero…I gotta say, I'm impressed", Sesugh leans down slowly stretching and prepping up "But too bad…you got to pay for your damages" he undertones as he fiercly and suddenly launches himself towards Rave, the speed, velocity and weight of this punch is so incredible that I'm sure it will put Rave down -I gotta start thinking of ways to defeat this guy myself-, but even though the punch hit Rave the in th skull -he's still upright, he begins to chuckle "Don't make me laugh" he mumbles while suddenly landing Sesugh some successive punches of his own, Sesugh is clearly downed by every blow and a finishing leg chop seals the deal as Sesugh lays down flat, Rave shakes his head "How repulsive" he comments as he turns to go "Hey dude!" Sesugh suddenly calls "Train me would you?...so I don't have to use other people as bait for all my misdeeds" he sits up and yells, his face bloody and mashed up "Get over it" Rave mutters viciously as he walks off "Hey…I don't want to die…if I'm alone.." he pauses "…I'll definitely die" Sesugh pleads while turning to me," Hey…I know where you could get water", he blurts out desperately, my face instantly beams and Rave stops in his track.

THE HOODED ONE'S POINT OF VIEW.

Just as Netyisha exits, a wave of a particular emotion hits me hard -guilt?-, I smile to myself -I definitely feel guilty…that I enjoy mobilizing people for the literal doom of the system-, but I'm not to feel too guilty -I'll eventually stop any potential threat to the system myself- so perhaps -I should feel bad about acting like an ally to them-, I sigh heavily -first Fenice, then Rave, now Netyisha- I truly am insane.
