The True Darkness (Incubation Team/???)

"Thank goodness..." Kazuya smiled and let out a deep breath. He was glad that stranger was alive and everyone seems to be happy about it as well. He approached them just to see how the guy was but then would move back as Blaez said he needs more room. Although that Kazuya didn't know the guy, he is really glad that he is alive. Kazuya is really thankful for him because that stranger saved him and the others from the black cage. Hyde was his name, Kazuya will remember that. Also, Kaz learned not to lose hope anymore.

Hiro would remain quiet as each went through their own form of mourning. When he was asked a direct question my the golden eyed one, the dark warrior would be still for a moment before carefully turning to face the other. Red eyes would lock on golden ones.

“I am not saying it has to be me,” he would pause as he kneeled down and carefully placed the body on the ground once more before standing and looking back at the golden eyed man. “It was an offer to pay back what I owed him for my own life; however, if you feel it better for you all to take care of the arrangements, then by all means feel free to do so.”

Hiro’s voice was calm and non-hostile as he took a step back from the body and gave the golden eye man a small bow of apology his hands spread slightly to the side as he performed the action. He was not here to start wars after just surviving one, he was only honoring the dead one who had saved him.

Shortly after this occurred, the body on the ground would shutter to life, the energy more so than the movement had Hiro looking down at the body even before it began to make its “live state” known to others. When the red head opened his eyes, Hiro’s calm expression turned into a frown as he took note of the white glow in the eyes. That energy wasn’t the boy’s so what was it? And why was it holding the boy here? Had he not already paid enough of price to be left alone?

"I heard you the first time," he respond in a soft slightly annoyed toned to the multiple calls of not to bury the young man. Perhaps he would've been even snappier had he not been distracted by this strange phenomena before him. What was this?

Not really liking the situation, Hiro would let the others surround the red head watching carefully to see just what this was all about.

''H-Hyde...'' The air felt crisp, it felt... Jack could smell the irony twinge on the wind from his hand. It didn't hurt anymore, suppose that was par for the coarse at this point. It would be improper to say Jack starting crying... or that he started to shiver and quake, or even to say his voice shook... for it hand't stopped. Though in spite of that, Jack couldn't help but notice the wry smile that took his face. It felt odd. There wasn't anything funny here... it was all sad... yet... for some explainable reason, Jack felt happy...


''It was because I was to god damned stubborn Hyde... I couldn't face you after all that had I did... that I couldn't do...now it's to-... no...'' With a chuckle Jack swallowed his tears and managed to put on his biggest cheesiest smile, ''It's not to late! hyde, you may be going away... B-But I will see you again!... When you get up there, y-you tell Nilo that how you h-h-helped me save the world! A-And you-you better not leave out any details cus.. I-If I find out you short changed me in your story I'll... I'll dig you up and k-kick.....kick yo-your....a-as-a...''  Jack could no longer hold back his sobs... as the leather from his glove groaned and whined in protest of his clenching fist. ''...I'll make you proud... I'll protect everyone you love! S-so you rest, and leave the rest to us...''


''I'll see you later buddy...'' Jack whispered as he saw Hyde's eyes grow dark...  In the end... Jack knew exactly why he didn't want to face Hyde. It wasn't just Nilo...or Oki... It was him... Jack, and his jealousy. Hyde was a true hero, one deserving the title of Red Ranger far more then Jack... Actually no, in spite of it all, Hyde was a rider.

Kamen Rider Ego... Yeah... Jack would have watched that...

Hyde Mizumi, even though he didn't spent as much time as he should have with the guy Blaez would never forget that name, Hyde was a great friend and whatever he did while Blaez was unconscious saved everyone from the father. As much he didn't wanted to admit this was a goodbye"I guess this is goodbye..."Blaez tried his best to hold back his tears but he eventually started to cry again, he understood that Hyde had to go, but he couldn't help but cry"...You are a great friend Hyde, i'll never forget what you did."Blaez smiled weakly at the Red Robin... at least the father was gone thanks to his sacrifice.

Hiro would show no surprise when he was addressed nor did he seem to react the words as he kept eye contact with the other as long as he spoke to him. As soon as he was done, Hiro would look away his eyes focusing on things in the distance rather than those around him. It wasn’t that he was being rude or trying to hide tears, but rather the words gave him something to think about. Even if it wasn’t the kid speaking, the idea of reconnecting with people was something that Hiro hadn’t considered after that one event long ago. He didn’t see the point in bonds anymore and so had abandoned them and let the darkness seep into him. However, now at the end of it all, he was the one left behind while another traded his life for his own….

He’d consider the words along with some other things he needed to straighten out. It might take a while, but….he’d find where he was suppose to be…and maybe this time he’d let people in. Regardless of what Hiro thought, the man would remained emotionless as he kept his hands in his pocket and listen to the goodbyes of others. The bitter sweetness in the air was uncomfortable, but he didn’t run from it this time. He just accepted it as it was as quietly watched as the spirit of the body passed from this world to another.

“So it would seem,” would be the quiet response back to the golden eyed ones words. Perhaps there battles were over for now, but there was still other things to do before this story could come to a complete close and a new would could begin.
