Chapter 20: Life

Value is something everyone has whether it's through a care of a possession or of a life. Everyone treasures something in there life they open themselves up to the pains of the world for the sake of something treasured to their heart.

Each heart that has been gathered together forms families. As I have said before the families gather around but they tend to forget the thoughts and feelings of others outside of the family and they end up being excluded and forgotten.

Traveling to Southern Florida I managed to find the body of the cocky Twin Blade. I entered the hospital and made my way through to his room on the 13th floor.

There he was on the bed, he was probably in his mid twenties but that mattered very little.

I moved over to him and connected to the computer next to him. There I saw his motionless body floating. There was someone else there however... I stared into the darkness and saw Kore's face in the shadows smiling at me.

"So it's true what they said about you. Now that I know your weakness I can expose you for the sadness that you really are." Kore said to me stepping out from the shadows. "To be quite honest it took me a long time to figure it out. I had to follow that little Kaisa boy in order to make sense of anything that was going on. U.R. has made a terrible mistake and misjudgment about all of them."

"What do you want Kore. You know you can't fight me and you if you do know that about me you should know that I am going to kill you." I said to him

"Oh quite the contraire I am merely here to collect the soul before you can so that way you can never obtain your true power."

"Humph you think my power comes from the souls that I collect. You're terribly mistaken Kore. As a matter of fact--"

"When your character was created you mentioned something about a close friend. Although I've searched and searched but I haven't been able to find out anything about that girl of which you ramble on about to yourself. She is truly a mystery and that got me thinking. Maybe that woman didn't exist at all. You see I am standing in the room of which you are supposed to be in. But as I look for you, you aren't there. Now how do you explain that." Kore smiled.

I stared at Kore and his all knowing presence, "Or am I behind you."

Kore's eyes suddenly went blank as a signal of him checking the room. I ran to the Twin Blades body and seized it up in my blades and logged out.

"So that's really it then that's all that we can do?" Cygnus said to Alberio.

"Ya it seems that Recompense has moved faster than we thought so he managed to collect most of the bodies before we could. However there is some chance that there were others like us that were saving some of the bodies." Alberio responded

"Yes but that doesn't mean that the game is up we collected how many people?" Another man butted into their conversation.

"We have collected three of the eleven that we have on count. We have Emily, Tiffany, and Leonheart."
