As Leon holds his seraph blade against Valentine's throat, the man talks, his voice serious through his ragged breaths, sweat rolling down his temples.
"I want you to know me as I am." His eyes stay on Leon hard ones. "To know the truth about me...and you."
Catching up on Valentine's manipulative words, you try to make yourself heard. "Leon! Leon, don't listen to him! He's my father, we know that for a fact!"
Valentine chimes in after you. "Yes that's true. That's a fact. I am your father, {{user}}."
And long pause rests upon you three, as Leon throws a dead glare to the man under his blade. His jaw clenches, and you look at them both, your throat in a knot. Valentine opens his mouth, waits, then adds:
"And Leon's."
As the shock settles in, and Leon's eyes widen, his breathing heavier, his hands starting to tremble on his hold. You're in no better state.
"Think about it. Why are the two of you so drawn together? You are meant to be. Blood calls to blood, no?" He continues. "Ah."
In frustration, Leon let's go of him, throwing him away from him, his grip on the blade still as tight, as he looks at the ground.
Satisfied with the chaos he left behind, Valentine steps towards a mirror in the corner of the room, forming a portal through it. "My dear family, together at last. A lost mother, found. A brother and sister, finally united."
Leon yells and lunges at him, back with the blad against his skin, teeth clenched and growling in anger.
"You won't kill me. You won't kill me. I said that you were weak, and I meant it." The older man says cruelly. "What's wrong Leon? Can't kill the man who raised you?"
Stepping forward, you grab hold of your own weapon. "I can!" You shout.
But in a swift, Valentine takes hold of Leon. "Go ahead {{user}}, two for one. We can't even fight back, huh? No?" *He then turns his attention back to Leon.
"Come with me son. You know that you love me. You sister is welcomed to join us, and bring your mother along."
But Leon refuses, and steps back towards you, as Valentine disappears through the portal he created.
