Bonus Scene From Isa
Blackness around me again, my action. Terrorizing many, killing that pope. My decision, my willingness to bring ruin. That innocent one, our encounter on a certain night. A flower underneath the dusk, flowing along in the endless breeze. A moment in this, yet more coming from it. Wanting this again, my heart reaching for the past. Opening my eyes, a bright light from afar. This moving towards me, enveloping me in its embrace.
Finding myself in the grassy field, that bleeding moon shining down its light. This real feeling, taking in the air. My eyes on one afar, her gentle azure eyes in my direction. Walking towards her, my heavy footsteps. Going this far, anything for her safety. Standing before her, seeing her displeasure. Innocence in this madness, my path in moving forward.
"Welcome, Isa..." Her grim expression.
"I guess you know huh..." My eyes a bit away.
"Of those you terrorized, of the pope you killed. Yes, I know." Holding her arm, her vision to her side.
"I will do anything to save you..." Biting my lower lip.
Choosing this way, my first offering paving my road. I am fine with it, my unyielding rage. Wanting her safety, fearing the worst. Power mirroring my resolve, a gift from a demon. Even if I must sully my soul, even if I am to be an enemy. If I can save her, if she can live the life she wishes for, then it is worth it. No matter of the price to pay, I will do so.
"This is your path, I know, and I will support you in it. Though, I do not want you to get hurt over me...or hurt others like this..." Her sad eyes to me.
"It is not so simple, that madman...if I do not play on an even ground. He will sacrifice you, no more than some pawn to be disposed of. I will endure any suffering, if it means your safety." Lowering my head.
"You can never stop worrying me huh. Well, go on and make the next offering..." Sighing in displeasure.
Difficulty in this, deeply apologizing from my depths. Withstanding injuries, crushing my enemies. This is my way to go forward, my black path. Walking along this endlessness, my heart in bondage. This dream, a place where two souls can meet. My feet moving onward, passing the hazel one. Shortly in front of the stairs, my eyes on the floating moon above. Negativity seeping out of my body, my expanding arms. Transferring this malevolence to it, a slightly crimson color from it. Returning energy to me, assimilating it into my body. Feeling this force flowing through me, my increasing malice.

"How are you feeling now?" her soft voice on me.
"I feel increasing hatred, much that I will need." Facing her, my hands behind my back.
"Hatred huh..." Sadness in her tone.
This one witnessing my progress, watching me steadily corrupt. Anything towards my goal, only her life of importance. Four years in prison, enduring the harshest punishments. Waiting for my chance, this moment in my hands. Acting on it, wishing to save her from that man. Wanting her smile again, no matter of the price. Please, endure this for now.
"I have been curious, but how do you know events that you are not part of?" positioning my arms in a thinking posture.
"This is your space, thus certain knowledge is granted to me upon coming here. I suppose you can say, your emotions informs me." Folding her arms, looking at me.
"So, are you feeling my anguish as well...?" unease from me.
"Yes, I am. Isa, what drives you so much? I always wonder that." Her sullen expression.
"Heh, I thought you would know this as well. It is you, this has been so for a long time now." Holding my hands behind my back.
Once keeping to myself, working jobs. Fulfilling my requirements, making a name for myself. Hoping to achieve a certain goal, something sinister existing in the shadows. A coming night, encountering this hazel one underneath the moonlight. Its crimson gleam shining on us both, this marking the start of our bond. Time going by, our growing sentiments. This leading me onward, her capture fueling me more.
"In other words, our meeting that night. It led to your suffering..." Lowering her head.
A way in looking at things, truth in it. Our meeting leading to many wonderful experiences, my heart seeking out the past. Separating from her, the pain I endure. Withstanding it, trying to save her. My willingness to oppose the reason of others, no matter of the distance. Never blaming her, my gratefulness to her. Walking up to her, grasping her hands in my own. Our eyes on the other, this brightening area. My time almost to awaken, but not like this. The flowing breeze, pulling her along in its vastness. Our movements with the other, dancing within this dusk.
"I would like to think, our meeting led to many things I cannot let go of. These desires of mine, I will unleash them, so that we can have many more pleasant days together." Softly smiling at her.
This flower within the light of the moon, its crimson gleam shining down on us both again. This intensifying wind, my tiring state. Wanting to relish in this a bit longer, that one embracing me. Our stopping actions, remaining in place. Enjoying the presence of the other, this warm feeling to my heart. The increasing breeze, unable to endure any longer. Everything blurring by the moment, my time to awaken once more.
