"I have to protect my friends! You can't deny me my duty!"

"My duty is to keep you safe!"

"Is that all I am? Your duty? Damn it, Atemu! I know I'm not as strong as you, hell, I'm the weakest person I know, but it doesn't give you any right!"

"I hate you." Pain erupted in Atemu's heart as Yuugi ran from him.
