This is your chance at revenge, at the thing you wanted all along. But it won't be easy, never will be.

KND: Look kiddo, I'm giving you a chance to think this through again. You know this won't end well for you.
RHT: As if you care, and yes I do know how this will end, ₩ł₮Ⱨ ɎØɄⱤ ฿ⱠØØĐ ₴₱łⱠⱠɆĐ!
KND: Very well, but remember, I warned ya. I'm sorry Leon but it seems I have to break my promise.

And so the battle begins. Faced before a battle-hardened warrior who's one of the strongest the world has seen, and her soul ability, kindness, the ability to heal and create with compassion. Then there's you, a teen who just turned 18, with a rusty knife as their only weapon and no other strengths aside from your
Determination. The twilight fills the corridor, the sound of gusting wind is heard outside the walls, and you're ready to KILL. You jump in for the first hit... but your target disappears in front of you. With sheer speed alone, she appears behind you and hits you with her... pan. You're thrown against the wall, and dropped to one knee.

RHT: You sure are strong, I'll give you that, but I can't afford to lose, not now, not ever.
KND: Poor child.

You get up and immediately go for a strike but the knight easily dodges it. This'll be a tough battle. Slash after slash, she keeps dodging but never countering. But that doesnt matter, after all, that only benefits you more in the end. After tens of attacks, you grow tired.

KND: Do you really expect to defeat a SOUL KNIGHT when you're so weak?
RHT: Yes, I do! I'll show you how strong I rea-!
KND: Enough! This ends now.
RHT: As if there's that much of a power ga-!

Green chains form around you and pin you down. The knight slowly approaches you while you try and free yourself from the chains.

KND: Useless attempts. Those chains are formed by the kindness in ones heart and to be broken, they have to be countered with an equal amount of animosity, which you don't possess. This is the end.
RHT: No... this can't end now.

You try and try to escape but to no avail. Is this really the end, are you gonna give up now. The knights eyes glow green, their soul, pure kindness, emerges from their body. This is her POWER.

 This is her POWER

This powerful attack, so strong, yet so calm. The damage flows through your body, but oddly enough, you feel tranquil and peaceful, as if all your worries have gone away. Your body drops to the floor, heavily wounded and likely dead. The knight drops a green tulip on your lifeless body and turns away. This is the end. After all that, nothing, you lost. You should've expected this coming from a SOUL KNIGHT.
Your soul starts to shatter. Second by second, the cracks get bigger and bigger, until...

*CRACK*
...
*SHAKE*
...
*FWOOP*
...
*But it refused*

Your soul refuses to die.
A black beam forms above you. The Knight turns around. You emerge from the darkness. Glowing red eyes engulfed in black. The Knight looks worried.
Her expression and ready for battle fills you with
