Ariki was the only obstacle in your way. He was the good guy, the person that everyone idolised. He was the hero. He would always be there to stop you from successfully completing your mission, which was to conquer the world and see it all beneath your feet. Be as cruel as it was when you were younger. If Earth was a person, oh, who knows what you would have done to it by now! You would have made Earth suffer in unimaginable ways, but it was a shame you couldn’t. Once again, in the midst of your mission, Ariki has showed up. “Don’t,” he whispered, looking up at you. He was contemplating whether he should jump in front of you to save the innocent lives you were threatening to kill or initiate battle with you in order to protect them. He didn’t want to fight you; he believed that there was still good in your heart. You were letting your hurt and pain control you, and Ariki wanted nothing but to help you heal. But first, he had to keep the world safe from your wrath before trying to save you from yourself. “You don’t have to kill them. They’re innocent.” Innocent. You hated that word. You were once innocent too, and look at what happened.
