Valencia: Continue Valdis.

Sora: We are about to get backstory like almost in any anime. This is just a way to establish a character and flesh them out. This happens everywhere!

Valdis: This is not an anime!

Sora: Go ahead and give us your monologuing, so time can pass by. And our bond will be stronger when we get there or whatever!

Valdis:  I’m just an emo-teen that likes to see his little sister have a smile on her face even though she can be a brat at times. But luckily, I taught her how to survive the world and its dangers.

The reason I was able to train her is because of my clan the Lucien's. We are a family filled with dangerous assassins.

Normally we would train the new generation. But my father didn’t want us to force into it.

So, he gave us a choice do we want to be trained. Both I and my sister said no. But when I turned seven. I saw Stone Nee in Nawluto. He went off in the chunni exams. So, I asked my dad to train me. He said yes but since I’m two years behind the training will be hard for a newbie. I trained for five straight years. Then one day my parents were arrested because of me. They took the blame for my stupid mistake. Because I killed seven of my friends.

I know, how could I. But here’s my reason for killing them. They were insulting and attacking this homeless kid that was my age at the time. They threw beer bottles at him. And telling him to kill himself! I couldn’t take it. So, I told them to stop and they wouldn’t listen, the kid was almost dead.

I wished I went to the police or somebody. But it’s too late now. I hit my friend Rico first then I couldn’t stop then next thing I know he’s a bloody mess! I checked a pulse, didn’t feel one. So, I started thinking. I couldn’t leave any witnesses. So, killed all of them with my bare hands.

They were screaming for mercy to the top of their lungs. I didn’t listen, I started laughing how much pain they were in. I broke all of their necks and stab each of them one thousand times!!! I admit I loved killing them even though they were my only friends.  I’m a horrible person. I used magic against non-magic users. I should’ve ended their lives quickly instead of making them suffer.

I can’t even call them my friends because I torture them then killed them and laugh at them. I killed them for a homeless kid that I didn’t even know! I don’t have the right to have friends, for what I did! Damn, that’s cruel. At least I wasn’t friends with the people I killed. And tortured them.

He’s cold-blooded he’s really a real mage. He spilled blood and was enjoying it.

Shut up Rin! He can change!

A person like that will never change. Once a cold-hearted mage always a cold-hearted mage.

Sora: Your wrong!  You can have friends! Even though you killed your only friends at the time. You wanted to defend a person that couldn’t defend himself! A person that cannot stand up for themselves for being too weak. You had the right to stand up for that kid. Even though you went overboard. You have to live with that for the rest of your life. But don’t worry. Because I’m am here! To be your friend!

Valdis: Words alone can’t justify my actions towards my late friends!

Sora: You have to forgive yourself before you can move on. You can’t be redeemed until you’ve spent a lot of time. You won’t be redeemed until you find your resolve. But the first thing you need to do is just be my friend.  

Valdis: You're pulling this little speech of yours out of your ass! Didn't hear what I said!? And you said I can be redeemed. There will be no redemption for me. You think your some anime character that can use talk no jutsu peoples problems away! This is the real world! Your reality is my fantasy. While my reality is a nightmare!

Sora: I know we are in reality! But what I said was right! But I never said I can get rid of your problems! Talking is just the first step. But your actions will change you! I can't force you to do anything. You have to want it yourself!  As of right now, you're a weak-minded person that is in a strong body that can handle anything. Follow my lead, by just being my friend. I promise you this Valdis, you will have more than one good day!

Valdis: Blue!!!! (Valdis punch me in the cheek with a resounding thwack! Making me stumble backward)

Sora: Valdis!!!! ( I gathered myself and squared up threw a powerful left hook to cheek with a loud boof! Making him back up before he started falling)

Valencia: Cut the shit! This will not be a battle shounen anime/manga! When the MC yells to the rival/friend! And the female character of the two only tries to talk them out of it, then another person like a mentor or something, stops the fight!

Valdis and Sora: Shut the hell up and let us fight!!! This is not anime/manga! This is real life!!! (Smack! Threw a left jab that connected to Valdis' cheek, Thwack! A right jab hit dead straight at my chin)

Valencia: Fine! Go at it to your heart's content!

Sora, why aren't you using any magic?

I don't need it Rin! This is a fight between men!

Valdis: Blue, you don't have a clue! What I have been through! All the pain that caused! (Bwak! Valdis threw an uppercut to my chin then he hit me with a haymaker to the cheek with a resounding klam!!! making me stumble backward for five yards)

Sora: You gave me a clue! You just said your cliche messed up anime backstory! (Klok!!! A strong knee to Valdis' abdomen. Gasp! Valdis' places his hands where my attack landed and starts to crouch then he fell backward then tries to stand up but falls to ground splat!)

Valdis: Why, do you want me to follow you!? (Cough, cough! He takes a knee while his hands still covering his torso)

Sora: Because you are surrounded by the despair and you need to see the light in order to forgive yourself and own up to it!

Valdis: Who said I need light!? (Sizzling! Valdis' open his hands a generates a bright light to blind me)

Sora: Valdis, you need a guide! ( Valdis starts running to me then threw a right hook to my ribs making a loud bump!)

Valdis: Why, do you want to be my guide!? (Shoop!!! A right roundhouse kick to the left side of Valdis' face making fall to the ground hard splat!!!)

Sora: You need to be better than where you are as a person! (Wack!!! A dropkick to Valdis' chest while he's on the ground, the concrete ground started to make sounds of crackle! Showing signs of cracking)

Valdis: Damn it!

Sora: Valdis, I want to help a friend out that is in need of help. Even though you've never asked for help. I'm just helping you as a friend.

Valdis: Good grief! You won't ever quit, won't you!?

Sora: Never. I will save you.  

Valdis: Good grief! Help me up. (Smack! Grabbed Valdis' hand and pull him up off the ground)

Valencia: Are you guys done!?

Sora and Valdis: We're straight.

Valencia: Good grief! Let's move it!

Valdis: That's my line! You guys love copying me!

Sora: Good grief! What a baby!

Valencia: Oh, Sky-Sky! It's your turn!

Sora: Good grief!

Valdis: You love using that phrase you Sakura!

Sora: I'm not useless!

Valencia: Go, Sky-Sky!

Valdis: Go, Blue!

Sora: Well, here's the thing. You guys wouldn't understand.

Valdis and Valencia: Tell us! Tell us! Tell us!

Sora: Fine, I'm just a guy that really want to help Sophia, and.......
