Okay, so this was originally supposed to be a small collection of times that Viole helped his teammates... But ya know, I could write another one-shot. For now, though, I'll just add another situation... Let me just go to find one. Oh! These won't be in order, btw. Like, there could be one from season one chapters after one about season two. Anyways, I actually decided to start writing one day after. Wow.

Instance 2: Prince [Season 2, Chapter 188-189]

"What's going on?" Miseng stared outside the cage they were in.

"Why is this descending?" Prince shook the bars, glancing at the flash of white that he thought he saw. "When can we get out of here?"

This is ridiculous. If I hadn't tried to pass on the twentieth floor, none of this would be happening to me right now. Then maybe the others wouldn't have passed, seeing as there would be no reason for Viole to help us. Then Lord Devil would be fine, and none of us would be held in a cage.

"I think that something's not right," Arkraptor said, sitting in a corner.

"No duh!" Prince snapped back.

"Chick! Chick!" Quoetro jumped up and down.

"Where? Do you see Wangnan?" Miseng asked.

If he's there, then that means everyone else is there too! They must have come to save us!

"No, I just said that for fun," Quoetro smirked and continued chanting, "Chick! Chick! Chick! Chick!"

"Shut up, you ignorant fool!" Prince gnashed his teeth together in irritation.

"-'Hostages' who will be used for the game!" A voice said.

Arkraptor stood up, looking outside for once. "What? Hostages?"

This is not good. Wait, is that Viole?

"Viole..!" Prince gripped the bars of the cage and shouted.

"These are the hostages for Jue Viole Grace's team. And on this side-! Are the hostages for Hoaqin's team!" The announcer continued.

THUD!

"Wasn't Hoaqin the guy that Viole was going to fight against?" Miseng squinted.

"HOSTAGES?!" Prince backed up in alarm. "So that means, we're being used as bait in this 'game'?"

"Viole and Hoaqin will now use the dallar to compete and either save or forsake the lives of their hostages!"

So that is Viole!

"VIOLE!" Prince grinned, but then the words registered. "Wait...forsake?"

"..." Arkraptor stood in the corner, paling as the time went on.

All of a sudden, Prince didn't feel that well. So he chooses if we live or die. I have to trust him with my life? The announcer said something else, but now the hostages weren't paying attention. Don't act like this. Miseng is calmer than you!

"-Once the game starts, hostages from each side will board the submarine one at a time and with the hostage inside, the submarine will travel through a spiral pipe to the bottom. But the bottom is filled with a burning substance. If the hostage reaches the bottom and touches that substance they will melt away and disappear in less than a second."

"What!? Melt away and disappear!?" Prince whipped his head towards the voice.

"That's right. Basically, they will die."

"What?! That bastard, how can he be so flippant with people's lives!" Prince yelled towards them.

Oh god. Please get me out of here.

"C-control yourself, Prince!" Miseng grabbed onto his arm. Does she not get that we may die? He shoved her hand off.

"Hey! Asshole!" He continued to bang against the bars.

"Prince, you're scaring Miseng," Arkraptor stated quietly, glaring at him while Miseng was quivering in the corner.

"Of course there is also a way to save the hostages! When the game begins, Viole and Hoaqin* will stand on the upper part of the shinsoo* tent. And once the submarine carrying the hostage leaves! The two chosen regulars may descend through the 'central pipe' and save the hostage."

"See, we can be saved!" Miseng perked up.

"The two will fight each other during the descent to save the hostage. Until the hostage is saved or dies, any form of combat is allowed!"

"Is that any better? The regular Viole has to fight- I think he's the slayer that FUG wanted to bring back!" Prince sighed. That's it. We're all dead now.

"I know that Viole must have gotten stronger. Maybe it'll be enough for him to save us all," Arkraptor comforted Miseng. "Come on, you won't be the first hostage. It will probably be Prince. The announcer must have gotten annoyed from looking at you by now." He smirked at Prince.

"Shut up!" Prince glared at Arkraptor. But what if I am the first down? I'll probably- actually, I WILL die!

The mood sobered after that, as all of the hostages listened to the rules of the game.

"Now~! Let's start the game!"

It's time. Prince grimaced, bracing himself. One of us will die here. Should I wish for it to be someone else? I'll live longer, but be guilty for the rest of my life.

"The first hostage is from Viole's team!"

The voice died down and a bright flash of light appeared. It's me. I'm dead. Prince heard Arkraptor and Miseng shout for him, and all of a sudden his fear came back. Calm down. Calm down. He appeared on the submarine, chained to the side.

"Damn it..! What is this!? Let me out! Help! Prince started to scream with renewed fear. "God damn it..!"

Please save me, Viole.

"Damn it..! Let me out! Help!" Prince clenched his teeth, tired or waiting for his death. At least make it quick, you bast- Oh god. What if I actually die now? "Help! I don't want to die! How dare you trap me in here!?" That's it. Now, this is just for desperate measures. "Do you know who I am!? I made even Urek Mazino piss his pants!"

"I will now start lowering the first hostage! Begin the descent!"

Prince could feel the pressure pushing on him. He couldn't even tell if he was screaming or not.

"Help me!" Please, Viole. I know I wasn't the nicest person.

95.

Don't let me die.

90.

I still have to get home..!

85.

What will happen to my dad if I die?

80.

Ever since mom left, he's been relying on me.

75.

Please let him still be safe...

70.

Please.

65.

I won't be as annoying if you save me!

60.

I'll help do stuff, like laundry, or cooking.

55.

PLEASE!

50.

I must return home..!

45.

"Help, Viole!"

40.

I guess this is it. I'm dying.

35.

"Damn it! Help! Viole!"

30.

My dad..! I never got to repay him for helping me.

25.

I still have so many things to do!

20.

I guess this is it.

15.

Prince closed his eyes, hoping for a quick death.

10.

"SAVED! Viole's team has successfully saved their hostage! Congratulations!"

Prince breathed a sigh of relief. I-I'm alive! Thank you, Viole! I promise to become a better person. Maybe I'll send a letter to my dad in case I die on this train so that he won't worry about me too much.

"Prince!" A bubble encased him, bringing him over to the rest of the team.

"A-are you alright, Prince?" Ehwa ran up to him.

"Crap... Damn it..! This is so humiliating... Why only me..?" Prince breathed out, panting. What am I saying? Why would I want the others to go through that? Of course not! ...So why did I just say that?

"I'm alive." He said out loud as if testing the words out.

"I'm alive."

...And then the hostage from the other team was lowered.

But why don't I feel like a better person? I still treated others as scum. Even though they were braver than me when we were hostages. Viole saved me, yet I feel incomplete. Like I'm missing something.

But still.

I'm alive.

So next chapter. This wasn't a one-shot, for whoever may have misunderstood my last message. Anyways, the last line is kind of sad if you know what I mean. Like, I don't want to spoil, but many people are presumed dead. And this was kind of just. Meh. To be honest, I don't like this chapter. It's not really in character, but I was wondering what Prince was thinking and all. I mean, he was the first one down. And I kind of took liberties with his character.

Anyhow, suggestions for this 'story' of sorts would be appreciated. Oh! Before I forget, AnimeWatcher001, I might put a one-shot of that, I'll kind of bounce ideas for that storyline around for a while though. So yeah.
