David:...Damn it. Why is it that I keep roping people into my problems? Now I'm forming an alliance with Dark Meta Knight as I take on Big Mom and the Titans? Give me a break…
D.M.K: Are you referring to me?
David: I didn't think you'd overhear me. Not that I minded.
D.M.K: You have a right to think of me whatever you wish but I still plan to be a man of my word once all of this is over.
David: That may change in time. After all, you're not the first enemy I've teamed up with.
D.M.K: I know. You have mentioned it several times. Keep in mind, what you think of me matters not. All I am concerned with is rescuing Symonne.
David: I feel that. If it was one of my comrades, I'd want to save them too. When Peko was captured, Mukuro and Ramona risked life and limb to save her. Though, thinking back on it, I think that's what got us that grudge against those guys.
D.M.K: Yes. Though it was Symonne and my rage that got us in that mess. If only we had run when Symonne said to, then maybe this wouldn't have happened. Should have known better than to try and conquer an emperor.
David: To be honest, I'm still not sure if we have the manpower to stand against them. But that's never stopped us before, so I don't see why it should now.
D.M.K: Then don't focus on beating them all. Instead...focus on escaping alive.
David: Especially against Katakuri. I'll do what I can to avoid him, but I don't think it's gonna be easy.
D.M.K: I agree. He dodged every move I made like he saw it coming before it happened. He even morphed his body to avoid my cuts. I doubt anyone can beat him.
David: I remember using something that helped defeat Infinite, but I doubt it would work the same way. Still, if his body is compressed of Mochi, it makes me wonder…
D.M.K: I remember...mochi tends to become soggy when in contact with water.
David: Is that so? I might have something for that, but it's too early to say. After all, we don't even know if he was using his full power all those times he fought.
D.M.K: That is true. I suppose only time will tell. Until then, we shall keep at the ready.
David: Right. We still have a lot to do before then, anyway.
D.M.K: Yes, until then...we'll try our best not to kill one another.
David: Got it. (It makes me think… That was some sage advice he had given me. Maybe he's not all that different from the original as I thought. It makes me wonder. Is destroying that mirror...really the right thing to do?)
