Sentinel's Broken Prison (Prime Awakening)

“….” Hyde opened his eyes and blinked twice. “……. Huh? Did…. did I just die?” Hyde was confused he didn’t even realize what happened as he got up and held his head in confusion. However, he still had his jester arcana attack. Well not really, it acted on instinct while Hyde tried to register what happened. “ What was…. Strange… oh..oh were fighting. Oo-ok, right!”

Ore Recieved:

The android watched Maria slowly fall apart, telling him that she was sorry, that she only wanted to know the truth, and she wasn't in danger anymore. The android smiled a bit at that as he felt as though a great burden was lifted from his shoulders. He had his resolve now...it was time to face Maria, the real one with the truth. She, no they would overcome it...like they always do. "Alright....alright. Thank you Maria, I will tell you the truth as soon as possible." The android said placing a hand on his chest, before turning around and facing the others. He now knew that Maria and himself could overcome the world with their love for one another. He gave them each a nod of his head, before moving pass them he had gotten one of the most important ones out of the way. While it would be nice to hear what Lisa had to say...he could finish this with some peace of mind. As he strode past the other two he would speak to them.

"Alright, let's go find my shadow and finish this, once and for all." he said before taking the door that they came into Maria's chamber. Back outside he would resume his pace backtracking as fast as they could until they got to Simon's chamber, now it was time to explore the other way. The path that would lead to Sentinel's hiding shadow. What would his shadow say, what would it look like? More importantly how would they fight it? If it reflected his skills and weaknesses like Naomi, then he could be quite an intimidating foe. He did have a skill that would cover up his own weakness of ice, meaning that Hyde might not be able to knock him down with ice spells....no doubt this would be more than a bit difficult. He wondered if his shadow had Orgia mode like he did? But it was a shadow right, and not a full-fledged copy of himself? Well it could use an attack that only Naomi claimed to be able to use....he couldn't write anything off, could he? No of course not that would be throwing caution to the wind and he couldn’t simply put his friends in danger. No, it would be wise to assume the worst case scenario and see what could go wrong. The bad news is that if it had Orgia mode then it would be able to attack twice a turn, but at the same time it would be rendered vulnerable shortly thereafter. Regardless, the android pressed on hoping to hurry up and find his shadow!

Movement:

“Unnnnhh….” Hyde was a little flustered for the time being, he didn’t know that shadows contained skills like that. The light attack that the shadow of maria used was a lot more devastating mentally than it was physically. Seeing a bright light like that and coming too after hearing the voice of his friends, he had no idea what just happened. That was pretty scary, and Hyde kind of hoped deep down inside that he would not have to experience something like that again. It was already bad enough that the wild card contract brought up his timely death, Hyde didn’t want to be paranoid because of this. “…………………” Honestly, Hyde was a little bit silent for a while, he didn’t really say anything as they continued waking , he followed behind quietly as he thought to himself. “……….” Even the silence that Hyde himself was emitting started to bug him just a bit, he felt as if he should break the Ice for the time being and say something a little bit hopeful. Or at least, figure out how the others were doing. “That’s right, my friends…my team…I have more important things to worry about right now.” Hyde decided to ask about alphonse first.

“So, I’m guessing you are going to tell Maria right after we head on out of here. I’m sure that everything is going to be fine Alphonse, just remember to breathe and remain using eye contact. I think there is a trick to eye contact, if you look away, it kind of makes you seem guilty or something. No wait, maybe it’s just rude to look away? Either way, make sure you look at her!” Well, that was awkward, but Hyde was feeling a little strange himself right now, so he couldn’t help it. Though, Hyde turned around and looked towards Shun.” Well Shun, after seeing all of this, what’s your opinion on Alphonse now? Nothing is as it seem, I guess one of the greatest crimes that Alphonse committed was to not being honest with himself. Look at it this way, are police considered murders if they had to shoot someone to save another If you was the person in danger, I would cross that line if it meant keeping you safe. Maybe I’m naïve, I don’t know….” Hyde was trying to give a bit of insight and see where Shun’s head was at.

Movement- Following

The android heard Hyde's concerns and he nodded, "Yes, breaking eye contact and turning your attention from your audience makes you look shifty eyed and not trustworthy, police officers, and attorneys are taught this. I just know that much because of research." The android said as he turned his attention back to the path as he navigated his way through the dungeon that lay in the recesses of his mind. When Hyde asked their third member his opinion of the android, he began to pay a bit more attention curious to see if Shunnosuke would bring jup the past issue.

However, instead he seemed advocating the idea of not telling Maria because it wouldn't change anything and that if he did not feel guilty about what he was doing for the good of Maria, why did it feel like he needed to confess. "You are getting confused, Maria did not want to hear the truth that I was offering her, her fragment was in denial. She didn't want to hear that someone killed her father to protect her, that is a hard thing to hear. No one would want to know that a loved one killed another loved one in order to protect the person they both loved.” The android said with a slight sigh of sadness. However, his posture seemed to gain confidence as he moved past the sad memory into his stance on the issue. I'm sure that this is the right path, but that doesn't make it any easier. What you see is not me trying to convince myself or others, but to overcome the amount of pain that I'm going to be putting Maria through. I don't want to do it to her, but if I have no choice, then I will do what I must do, to keep her safe. It will hurt her, but...I have a feeling that no matter what happens we will overcome it. We’ve come a long way together and while this might be our greatest hurdle with a huge and a smile….we can go a long way." The android told Shunnosuke confidently before moving forward toward the group's goal. His shadow, who would no doubt seek to take advantage of any doubt he had. The android would have to steel his will against the monster that would soon stand before him. However, he was confident he could overcome his shadow and whatever challenge it posed. After all he had his friends by his side and with them; he would be more than able to overcome anything he had to face.

Movement:

It was good that Shun and  Alphonse managed to talk  it out for now, all that there is left to do is to take but the number one shadow that is causing all of this. Right now, that greatest threat is Alphonse’s shadow, he wasn’t too sure how powerful that the shadow will be or if the shadow would say anything that would try to discourage his friend. Whatever the shadow tries to say or do, Hyde hoped that Alphonso wouldn’t listen to him. “Hey Alphonse I’m not too sure what kind of gimmick that the  shadow is  going to have, something hitting your soft spot. Like having Maria be in danger and the shadow mourning over it, parlor tricks to mess with your mind. I just want you to know, remember what the fragment of Maria just told you a while ago. She loves you, and she’s not in danger. Maria is waiting outside for us, and you are going to go ahead and  see her right after this is done, so don’t even bother paying attention to any kind of mind tricks that the shadow or this dungeon might play on you. “

It was the most that Hyde could say in the meantime; he didn’t say much of anything to Shun. It’s not because he didn’t want to talk to Shun, there is always a time to talk to Shun. However, Shun was going through his own concerns when it comes to the relationship that Shun himself has his  with Alphonse. He would much rather not bother them  while they talked until  they managed to get up to the final battle. Hyde kind of wanted to see that women, but they wasted enough  time as it was. Hyde kind of wanted to experience the latent feelings of a mother, Something that he hasn’t necessarily seen until he met Naomi’s mother. Hyde was a bit jealous of that,  he wondered if his mother felt anything at all when she gave him up for adoption at the  orphanage. “………………” It was Alphonse’s decision  ultimately, and everything that happens this time around was his show. “ You know, I been thinking. The team seems to have been on odds. But I think we should get it together, and….. care about each other more… you know. All of this exposure as to how family should be,   I wonder if we would ever reach that far, to get through those hurdles.

It was clear that Shunnosuke was not agreeing with Sentinel given just what he was saying things like the pain wasn't necessary for Maria to go through. "I know I have a choice, and Maria has a right to know what really happened to her father. She needs to know that sometimes people have to make tough decisions and when they make tough decisions the ones that they love are always the first they have in mind. This is one of the hard choices that has to be made in life, I could not tell her like you said and let her live in bliss. However, now that I've fought her fragment, I think that is the worst thing to do. Life isn't simple and easy despite how much we may want it to be there will come a time when we all have to make a tough decision." The android said, "And if not telling her and letting her find out the truth on her own leads her into the worst nightmare that will haunt her for the rest of the life. The pain that telling her causes is much better than having her live in a nightmare. I'm not doing this for myself, I'm doing it for her. I thought sheltering her was the right idea, but...after what I've seen and heard I can't keep telling myself that." The android said, it did seem like Shunnosuke was trying to argue from the standpoint of utility to the android. Avoid pain and seek pleasure, but sometimes life didn't allow for such a calculus.

“Shunnosuke, I appreciate you telling me all this, and looking out for Maria and I’s best interest. It means you are a good friend. I know the consequences of my actions. I thank you for offering your advice.” The android said before looking toward Hyde who had warned him about the reality of what he might see, “I know Hyde, I won’t be like I was with Maria. I can face myself and I will defeat it. I’m not going to let these concerns or fears hold me back any longer, we are going to defeat my shadow and then turn our attention to the angels.” The android said, and then the concerns about the team came up. Now of all times, sure there was tension between Shunnosuke and Hyde against Naomi, but humans do not always see eye to eye. “Perhaps there is some tension, but we must overcome the issues we face. I understand that you two don’t like Naomi and Naomi isn’t exactly a buddy with you two, but my question is why is that? I understand that Naomi dislikes Hyde for making a mistake and an assumption. Have you two not been able to get over that? Is there some other issue that you find to be a problem?” The android asked, figuring that since he was one of the more mature people or at least rational people he would be able to propose a solution.

Movement:

“but……” Hyde didn’t have too much to offer when it comes down to a sound and reasonable argument of being friends with everyone. It was pretty hard for him in the first place, trying to get along with people that doesn’t seem to like him very much. Sometimes Hyde could be a bit Vain at times, but it was practically self-torture at this point. Hyde had no clue as to why Naomi didn’t like him? She could be mean sometimes, but he still liked her. Naomi been through a lot, and being through her memories only made Hyde see that a lot more than he expected.

“I don’t know, I tried a few times but she isn’t necessarily responding to me in the way that I would want her to. It was made clear that she won’t even give me the time of day if the situation in alternate San malarus isn’t solved, but how can it be solved? It’s a world where being a persona user is a crime, outlawed for being different and thus promptly killed. I couldn’t stand to live in a world like that; I would go crazy after witnessing all of my friends being hunted. When something is considered as a standard for years of that alternate world, is this something we could fix in a matter of days or weeks? If they killed me and got their little bounty, would everything go back to the way that it was? What’s that exactly? What’s considered normal over there? Naomi said that my actions put an important person to her in danger in that world. Did I screw up that bad that other people are paying the price for my mistake, or was it always like that, and now people are guilty of association? If that’s the case, and I don’t know anyone else over there, then doesn’t it link back to something Naomi did that she could be caught for?” Hyde was quiet for a little while, but he spoke up again.

“You know, sometimes I feel as I’m the problem at times. That I cause the most problems for the team, so much that it outweighs whatever good I done. And when I feel like that, I wonder if I wasn’t around as often, everyone would do a bit better without me or something. I don’t know…. Sharaku is pretty calm and cool….shun is charismatic and influential…. Alphonse is an advanced computer that’s pretty smart and probably strong as well, and Naomi is really good with technology. I have nothing to offer……” Hyde would then switch over to codas and prepare for the fight against the shadows.
