Game over, Donner. Time to stop this farce.
|
Are... are you going to kill me?
|
That would indeed be quite an alluring idea.
|
I see. So, turning into a human didn't quench your thirst for blood... Delfina.
|
My "thirst" is extinguished, Donner. I don't want to hurt any innocent... anymore. This fin of mine is a reminder of what I was... and of what I don't want to be.
|
Noble worlds don't mean anything. Do you REALLY think you deserve a fresh start? How many people have you murdered, in the past? Ten? A hundred?
|
Saying "sorry" is too easy. You can't just begin a new life, like nothing happened!
|
Well, it's not up to you to decide whether I deserve it or not. Maybe you should just consider yourself lucky: I'm not going to pull the trigger, if you don't do anything stupid.
|
I see. I shall thank you from the depths of my heart, then. And I'm sure you will achieve your goal: you won't kill anyone anymore. This is a promise.
|
*sigh*
|
That was something stupid.
|
Two months later
|
That ComiCon was great, Elena! I didn't know you liked cosplaying so much.
|
Well... yeah, it's something I wanted to do for a long time. Just... I couldn't, since I looked like a fish monster.
|
Thanks for having come with me.
|
Don't mention it, it was a lot of fun! To think that we started dating because of a fight...
|
And, besides, you saved my life. There was no way I could have beaten that damn scarecrow alone...
|
That's a strange topic to bring up right now.
|
You see... in the last two months, I've realised how much I like you and what kind of girl you really are. Still, I have a question that I was afraid to ask, until now.
|
Is it true what you told me back then? That you have been an assas... well, I can't say it out loud here.
|
Please, tell me that it was a joke to scare the living crap out of me and convince me to give up.
|
Well...
|
Unfortunately, it wasn't. Sorry.
|
In my defense, I can only say that I was "programmed" to be like that since I was born. A weak defense, indeed, but that's it.
|
Are you going to turn me in?
|
...
|
No, definitely not. I kinda like you too much.
|
And what about the families of the people I...
|
I don't give a damn about them.
|
But they were people like you and... me. Don't you...
|
To Hell with the moral questions, okay? I don't believe in that "power of friendship" bullcrap and in that "greater good" stuff.
|
I'm a pretty selfish guy, okay?
|
And what if my karma comes to bite me back?
