Very fun filled adventure day 2!
(I accidentally skipped yesterday, so today is 2. It is what it is)
Cate: Almost there… I think. I don’t know anymore. I can hardly see the ground in front of me.
Light: We have to keep moving. Every second we pause we put ourselves in more danger.
[Cate stops suddenly.]
Cate: [Pointing at a shadowy figure on the horizon] what is that?
Light: Wait a minute…
[The figure comes closer into view. It looks exactly like Light, but… more malevolent.]
Cate: HUH?
Light: That’s impossible…That can’t be me…
[The creature is an Eidolon. It mimics the darkest form of an individual. In this case, it is Light when he was still acting as Kira. (Note: “Kira” will be used as the name for the fake Light, don’t get confused)]
Kira: [His eyes glowing red, with a black book clutched under his arm.] What have I happened upon here? A fallen god? Pathetic. Both of you.
Light: Begone, monster.
Kira: I’m the monster, am I? You’re the one who killed thousands of people. You’re the one who killed her. [He points at Cate].
Cate: I’ve moved past that.
Kira: Have you? [He steps closer and closer to her] You’re telling me that you don’t want to punch me- or rather him- in the face for what he’s done? For the situation he’s put you in? Don’t lie.
Cate: He can’t do it again.
Kira: But he would. If he could have kept you dead he would have.
Light: T-That’s not true…
Kira: Monsters like him don’t feel remorse.
Light: …
Cate: Begone, Kira.
Kira: I’m not Kira. I’m not even real. The real Kira is standing right next to you. In this land, full of malevolent creatures he is the true monster.
Light: I’m not Kira anymore.
Kira: Present actions can’t change past harm.
Light: Kira is dead.
Kira: You don’t mean that! You’re still the same, you’ve not changed. People don’t change unless it’s for the worse.
Cate: No… Kira is dead.
Light: Begone!
[The fake Light vanishes in a wisp of dust.]
