"This is what I mean," he said
"What are you talking about?" I asked, he grabs me by the shoulders
"You have something to look forward to; you have a family who loves you! But you are willing to give that all away? If you are, then you are a wimp! Don't let this…this thing you have," he pokes my stomach, "that is in your DNA control you! You must be able to control your OWN body!"
"But how can I?" I felt like sinking lower
"Oh no you don't, you can't escape from me that easily," he pulls me up, "you must stay up here! If you go down any lower, you will lose, and you'll be gone forever!"
"Gone? What do you mean?"
"This thing has been taking over since the beginning! It wants to take full control, and destroy everything in its path! Do you want that? Do you want it to destroy your family?"
"N...no!" the music plays though, I feel like im rising
"You, we can beat it together!" higher and higher
"We?"
"Yes we, I can't leave you alone since I'm your other part!"
"Other part? Like Girosumi?"
"Yea, so do you accept?" he held his hand out, looking twice, I grabbed it
I'm facing Ziroro, during the music, I had gotten close to press the button on the necklace and say the password, the necklace broke, but he was still in berserk mode. We are on a building facing each other. Just him and me. I can tell he was as tired as I was. I can either get though him or…I lose him forever…I took another step…and he starts glowing.
Holding his hand, we rise higher and higher. I looked down, there was something beneath us. This was my mind, so whatever is trying to control me is that thing. I felt it trying to reach us,
"If you can overcome it, we can go back," there was a light, the music came flowing in, "Hurry! You have this once chance!"
Up, up I go
My head hurts; I put my hands on my head. I can feel the thing trying to get in control again, I will overcome it, "Giro...Sumi," I didn't realize she was standing before me, or that I was on top of a very tall building
"Ziroro!" he seems to fighting something inside…is this what he meant by Ziroro overcoming the gene?
He looked up; I got away, now I must overcome this thing. I looked down, the darkness is trying to come back up, and I will fight it!
Ever heard the saying 'battling one's demons'? I think that's what is happening with Ziroro, the Berserker genes have become a demon within him. I crept closer, "Ziroro you can do it! You can defeat it!" I hugged him
I hear Girosumi's word echo though my head. Yes, I will be strong! I will be brave! The darkness is shrinking! Have I done it?
That one moment of hesitation…
I thought Ziroro was about to overcome it, when a gun came to his hand and he shot me.
