Udolf sat in the war room, having snuck up late in the night. He was watching the loop that had been going on all the meeting long... The battles he'd had...

[Light]

The elevator lightly clicks and Cloud walks out of it hugging herself. She blinks at him surprised and moves over to the table sitting down, "You couldn't sleep either?"

[CrimsonMoon]

He glances at her," No.." He replies softly flinching as the Juggernaut's demise is played on the hologram...

[Light]

Cloud lays her chin on the table looking at the hologram, "I've watched that one a few dozen times,"

[CrimsonMoon]

" They wont stop playing it," He hisses softy," They even broadcasted it on UC channels... Its just like my mom," Udolf clenches his teeth as the holo switches to the battle with the Reaper," God... What am i?"

[Light]

"A gift," her bright green eyes look away from the hologram to look at him, "Right?"

[CrimsonMoon]

" I'm a weapon, an idol, a rebelious son destined to kill a tyrantical mother, i am a messiah now...." Udolf buries his face in his hands, eyes narrowing

[Light]

"Those are titles and names given to you by others," Cloud stands up from the chair walking up to him, "But what do you want to be?"

[CrimsonMoon]

" I want to be...." He trails off and narrows his eyes," I want to be.... The peacemaker... Not the weapon.."

[Light]

Cloud gently pets the top of his head, "Then ignore everyone else, and do what Udolf the Peacemaker thinks he should."

[CrimsonMoon]

Udolf stares at the table and glances up at the hologram to see the Reaper falling,".... Do you think.... Your dad is up to something?" He asks quietly

[Light]

"My father is hurt," her voice takes a mournful tone, "of course he's up to something. He thinks that what he's doing is going to make everything okay again, but it won't."

[CrimsonMoon]

" What about Erin?" He asks softly, finally shutting off the holo monitor and plunging them into darkness

[Light]

"Erin... scares me," she softly admits drawing her hand back to hug herself, "I don't know why, he's there, and I can hold him, but sometimes it feels like I don't really see /him/,"

[CrimsonMoon]

".... What was he like as a kid?" Udolf asks, putting his arms around her almost like reasurring her

[Light]

"Erin was almost like dad," she shuts her eyes tight, "He didn't talk much, and it was easier then than it is now to be around him. He wasn't someone you would expect to grow up and do the things he does now."

[CrimsonMoon]

Udolf glances up his blue eyes glowing slightly in the darkness," What did you expect him to grow up to be like?"

[Light]

"I always imagined him to be a doctor or something." she laughs a bit rubbing her closed eyes with her wrists, "He's always been smarter than me,"

[CrimsonMoon]

Udolf smiles," Do you know what he is now than?"
