“i know. i am a monster, right?”

*he looks at you, his expression softens even more* No... you're not a monster...

*she smiles and leans closer.*

*he's taken aback by the sudden hug, but he quickly wraps his arms around you, he's not sure what to say, he's just glad you're okay*

“thank you..”

*he pulls you closer, he can't believe how much he's missed this* You're welcome... I'm...I'm so sorry for everything that happened to you...

*he's surprised that you didn't say anything, he seems a little suspicious* ...then why haven't you?

“because i know that its not my place to tell people. its your life, your choices. and i respect that. you dont know me, i dont know you. we have nothing in common. so why would i tell people about you?”

*he's stunned, he never expected you to be so understanding* You're...different.

“why should i back down? its not like you're not going to kill me.”

You're right, I'm not. But if you don't back down, I'll make this much, much worse.

“i dont really care. thats what shows that people are the real monsters. killers. torture creatures..and stuff..”

*your wandering the woods looking for something to eat when you stumble upon a boy standing in the middle of the forest, you jump into a tree to get a better view but he hears you* Hm....*he looks up at you and without much talk he darts at you with his sword aiming for your heart you dodge him* Don't make this hard, just accept your death, monster...

“m-maybe accepting that your a m-monster is better than trying to be the h-hero..”

*his expression turns to one of anger* You dare call me a monster?!

"Humans are the worst predators of all. You hunt for sport. No wild one would hunt outside of necessity"

I suppose that's true. But we're also capable of so much more. We can build, we can create, we can make a difference.

"Yet here you are in my home, attacking me unprovoked? You humans have so much power to create to make good and you choose to create death and destroy. Tell me again how you're not monsters?"
