He forced himself to his feet, pushing Ama away, aware of something that he hadn't been in forever. Complete. He snarled to himself, before reaching down, and thrusting a hand into her chest, physically grabbing her soul and forcing it back into her badly damaged body, and then beginning to heal it. It was cruel, but so was what she had done, even if it HAD been for the 'greater good.' "Maybe, I wasn't clear, mind healer, when I said that if you didn't walk then, you were in for the long haul. If any portion of your soul remains, I can, and I will, call you back to finish this damn servitude.<br/><br/>Congratulations, while you failed in the final objective of completely 'converting' me, you did manage to ease a tiny portion of my self hatred, and, more importantly, managed to force all five fragments of my psyche back together into a single person. Sadly, I was always a bit of an ass, self defense against the racism of having scales and clearly not being 'fully' of a race, but I am sure you will all get used to it fairly quickly. Mostly cause it is going to take a few days to regrow those scales and masks you so casually had me rip off, before you did one of the FEW things I stand against. You tried to deny me a choice. Sabreal did the same thing, though she succeeded while you didn't.<br/><br/>So, you will merely have to live with the fact I don't, and never will, trust you as much as I did ever again, as opposed to Sabreal. I don't CARE if you did it to help, or for the 'greater' good, or cause the moon is made of cheese and the metal slimes made you. And tomorrow, you and me will be staring down at my opponent at a distance of about thirty yards. Hopefully not having all those masks doesn't fuck up the meeting too much."<br/><br/>He turned to the death squads, and jerked his head, indicating the medi-drones were to approach, before handing her over to them. "No one follow me. NO. ONE."<br/><br/>He turned and walked off, steam practically rising off of him as he went to be alone, and to try and cool off before his meeting with Verdelet.
