```Not so different, you and I.```
*Some time after Nameless took Replika away from Lirio in Twilight Town.*

*A portal to the lanes between split open in the ruins of the central square. Along with its sudden appearance, a diamond chocobo carrying a heavily armored man emerged.*
Michelle
*The Nameless Thirteenth carried with him a half-conscious boy. He dismounted from the chocobo and lumped the replica onto the ground, uncaring.*
Cynthia
*The motion stirred the boy a bit. He semi-pushed himself off the ground and looked up at the armor. His expression worried, recalling the last time he saw this suit of disturbing armor.*

"Y-you.."

*Replika scooted away from the suit of armor, while keeping his eyes on it.*

"You're the one I saw... In that white room... A trick by Inaxuma! You... You have to be..."
Michelle
"Your assumptions are as fake as you are. It is a mystery to me how you could have even been made from those false memories."
Cynthia
*A fake? No, everything up until now, traveling with Suzuka to get his memories back, that had to be real! And what he knew of his friends. His... Friends...*

*He remembered what Suzuka said about him. That all of his friends abandoned him to the darkness. But nothing felt like darkness, how could that be?*
Michelle
"And I know what you're thinking, too. You're trying to rationalize everything you've seen, everything you've heard or been told. It does not matter in the end. You are simply one command away from eternal slumber."
Cynthia
*Replika struggled to stand, but eventually made it to his feet. He looked the armor dead in the... Helmet slot... And narrowed his eyes.*

"You're wrong! I am... Ikazuchi, the Beacon of Hope! I fight so that no one else has to suffer like I did. I fight so that..."

*A sharp ringing echoed in his mind.*

"...So that Suzuka is safe."
Michelle
"Face the facts: neither of us are Ikazuchi. That right there proves it."
Cynthia
*He refused to believe any of this was fake. It had all been real. Is what he had felt all just a fabrication? There was no way for that to be true.*

*Replika reared his arm back and opened his palm, trying to summon his keyblade.*

*Like the last time, there was nothing.*

*He tried again, going through the motions of opening and closing his hand, to no avail.*

*Without his keyblades.. He...*

*Still had to fight!*

*Replika quickly sprung into action, charging at the suit of armor. From this distance, there wasn't much the armor would likely be able to do in retaliation!*

*His eyes lit up golden as he built up energy from his run! He had to do all he could without his keyblades!*

*With this boost in energy, he ran forward with lighting erupting from the palms of his hands. He wasnt sure how exactly to attack unarmed, but he clenched his fists and punched the armor clean in the center of the chest! Ouch that actually kinda hurt his knuckles to do that.*

*Not giving the nameless suit of armor any time to react, he spun around behind the suit with a biellmann twirl and discharged several bolts of energy! Followed by him sliding to a halt and palm-heel striking three balls of lightning to the armor's back!*

```
Michelle
*The dust from the initial barrage settled. The armor turned to look at Replika; it was without a single scratch.*

"So as it turns out you *Can* Go against us... Amyrx will not be happy to hear this. Suzuka said there was a failsafe in place if you were to attack like this what was it again? Hm..."

*The armor put a hand to its chin and tilted their head.*

"Ah, I can't remember right now. But this should work just fine."

*Red shimmering eyes pierced through the darkness of the helmet's opening, as Nameless summoned a gnarled and spiked keyblade that heavily resembled his armor. He moved in a flash with lightning-like speed, leaving a sonic boom behind him. Like a tank barreling down a hill, the armor struck the poor defenseless replica with a Lightning Ray of his own.*

```Lightning Ray (Nonlethal) = 6,420```
Cynthia
*Replika let out a gasp as he was struck with such force. His vision blurred as he hit the ground like a sack of bricks.*

```HP. 6,420 -0 (Nonlethal = 1)```
Michelle
"Now you sit tight while I go get Suzuka. I have no quarrel with the two of you being out and about. But you are her responsibility, not mine."

*The armor would then hop up onto the chocobo and leave through a portal to the lanes between.*
