"Sai, I need you... I can't live without you... please... help me... maybe we can..." I start to collapse to the ground, an instant replay of my death, except slower this time, "kill the beast this time..."
"Well, I'll just take Sage and Orion if you can't make up your mind. Foolish children you are... Prepared to see an instant replay of his death, Sai?" I wink at her.

I call out, growing weak, "Please... more... time..."
"Oh, so you've got a body of your own?" I say. "So you want to take Sage's mind-reading... just so she doesn't catch up to you in terms of skill? You're just absorbing her ability? That's sick, man. Stop me if I'm wrong."
My anger flares up as I yell, "I. Am. The. King. Of. Those. Monsters. If you must know, I caused this whole mess in the first place. I'm the reason the world fell apart. I'm the reason friends died and families were separated. It is all my doing. I have way more power than that weakling. I don't need her." I add smugly, "Even if you did find my body, there is no way mortals like you can ever dare to defeat me."
