“And even less than that, too.” Mako admitted. “I’ll say. But then, why am I here?” He spoke slowly.
“Like it matters.”
As Dolphus walked away, a sound like iron nails scraping against wood greeted his ears, and if he ever bothered to look back, could see Mako trembling with laughter, cold and high.
Then came the venom. It too was cold and cruel.
"Idiot. You don’t know what its like to drown. To be strangled by the very thing that gave you life. To suffer. " His eyes shimmered, turning from its bright green hue to a cold blue. He raised his hand in anger, and the ocean greeted him. Water spat out from beneath the waves, morphing into shapes.
Nothing. A nothing. A tool. A fool. A product. An idiot. Agony. Forgotten.
Disposed of. Worthless. Void. Abyss. Alone. They can’t save you. I couldn’t save myself. Lost. Choice. Choose. Decide. Gone. Empty.
“Lost. I am lost.” Mako muttered to himself once again. “A tool. Hollow.”
Family. Nothing. You are nothing. He is something. Lost. Monster.
Phantom.
Mako dropped his hand.
GIVE. UP.
He let go of the soldier.
There was nothing left for you.
His feet started moving.
LEAVE.
And he quickly walked away.
There is only silence.
