Inside a room with Leia, Hyuga listened to Jude's father, who is looking at a dragon-shaped tattoo in Hyuga's arm which now has reached his shoulder.
Mr. Mathis: This is becoming worse than I thought...
Leia: What do you mean, Mr. Mathis?
Mr. Mathis looked at Hyuga, who looked down before the doctor speaks.
Mr. Mathis: If you keep borrowing the dragon's power... You will probably end up becoming one and lose yourself.
Leia covered her mouth in shock from what she just heard before Mr. Mathis continues.
Mr. Mathis: Do you understand now, Hyuga?
Hyuga nods before talking.
Hyuga: But if it's to protect others then I don't mind...
Mr. Mathis sighed.
Mr. Mathis: You are just like Jude...
Leia laughs in response before looking at Hyuga.
Leia: I get what you mean...
Hyuga chuckles before looking at a sleeping Milla, which Mr. Mathis noticed.
Mr. Mathis: You really grew attached to her...
Hyuga: She protected me before and now it's my turn to return the favour.
Mr. Mathis: But you have to make sure to prevent her from being reckless just like you are right now.
Hyuga awkwardly nods before Jude enters the room holding a device on his hand.
Jude is a rather short teenage boy with a pretty-boy appearance. He has neck-length black hair and amber eyes. He wears a white jacket with a navy blue overcoat, lined with light blue accents.
Jude: Hey, Dad. I'm ba—
Jude paused upon looking at Hyuga, who in return looked at him before waving a hand.
Jude: Hey, Hyuga. Since when did you get here?
Hyuga: Got here by boat with Leia...
Jude nods before looking at the sleeping Milla.
Jude: What happened to her?
Hyuga: She lost function of her legs... even though it was my job to protect her.
Leia: Don't feel bad about it, Hyuga.
Jude: Leia's right. You did what you could.
Hyuga smiled before Mr. Mathis talks to Jude while looking at the problem in Milla's legs.
Mr. Mathis: Jude, do we have any more of those aspyrixes?
Jude nods.
Jude: Yes, we do. I'll go get it.
