The worth of a soul

A few days after fighting the big 3 and Muzami, Izuki POV

Me and Spireon are in my room, talking about what we'll do when it's time for me to somehow raise my dad from the dead.

Just for ease of this, as I believe I used to do the same thing as thoughts for her forms, anything underlined is from the forms, and Metalleon's morse code is _like this_

"My queen, I have a question for you" "You really don't need to call me that" "Have you sensed that soul that seems to hover around Denki?" "Only when I'm in your form, yeah" "I believe it's his sister" "Lily? She's followed Denks around all this time?" "Yes, and when she heard that you would be able to raise the dead, seemed hopeful, but only for a bit before she heard that it could only happen once, and you're hoping to bring back your dad" "This is not good... I can't tell Denks, he'd get his hopes up for nothing... but on the other hand... I never knew my dad, and I'd be able to bring my friend's sister back" "At the end of the day... It's your choice, I will do my part regardless of who you choose"

"Spireon... you once told me that I could possibly sense souls in my Psychic form, how do I do that? And what else could I do because of that?" "You'd be able to read people's souls, understand them more than they understand themselves. You'd know the true worth of a person's soul" "That sounds far more tiring and sad than people would expect" "It is. You'd see the worst of people, the best of people, with little to no filter unable to share what it looks like with anyone else. You'd be unable to quit seeing it, unable to fully trust because you'd know if their lying to you" I breathe in and out, "I want to learn how, I'd be able to save those who don't know they need saving" "Are you sure? As I said, there is no undoing this" "I'm sure" "This will probably hurt" Spireon locks eyes with me before her eyes glow blue, and a sharp searing pain explodes in my head, making me slide of my chair holding my head "Ugh... This-" I choke down a scream of pain, and sit in silent agony until the pain fades and I slowly get back up, "That... sucked..." "I am very sorry for making you go through that pain, but you got your wish, you can now sense and read people's soul" "Thank you Spir, you can go rest for now. We'll continue our talk later" She nods and disappears, while I head to the lounge after taking the elevator from the third floor.

"Hey guys" I walk over to Jack, who is currently sitting on the couch talking with Fumi and Denks. "Hey Babe, how was your talk with Spireon?" "Interesting to the say the least. I got a new ability thanks to her" "Oh? What is it Zuki?" "Well, in this form and probably in her form, I can sense souls, but in this form only, I can read them" "Read them?" "Simply put Denks, I can understand a person more than they understand themselves. But it'll probably be hard to use it to that extent, so really I can just see things deeper than what's on the surface" "Alright"

3rd person

Izuki's eyes lightly glow, and her eyes drift to above Denki's shoulder, and she smiles lightly "Spireon wasn't kidding, it's clear you've been here awhile" The three boys on the couch get surprised from that, "W-what do you mean? Are we being haunted by a ghost?" "No Denks, we're being watched by a spirit" "How is that any different?!" "A spirit can't do anything other than watch, not even be seen, while a ghost can mess with stuff, and possibly be seen if they want" "Well then, who's watching us? Your dad? Jack's mom? Who?" "First, since my dad is being turned into a Nomu, his soul is stuck in that body. Second, Jack's mom's soul is currently Espeon. Third, Lily" "W-what? Lily is the one who's been watching us?" "You specifically, from how she's acting" "What do you mean by that?" "She's been trying to smack the back of your head, but can't due to her hand just phasing through" "I must have done something to make her upset, she only did that when I do something she thinks is unnecessary"

"I want to try something, can I hear you?" Izuki's eyes widen, "You have a lovely voice" "You can hear her?" "Yeah, she says she's been trying to hit the back of your head because you keep blaming yourself. What did I say?" Denki mumbles under his breath, "That she wouldn't want me to blame myself..." "That's right. Now I have to make a decision..." "What? What decision?" "Don't worry about it" "Zuki, Babe, you aren't debating what I think you are, right?" "Depends, what do you think I'm debating?" Jack stares at her before flicking his eyes over to Denki, and back to her, "Maybe I am... what's wrong with that?" "Nothing, but are you 100% sure that you'd be fine with doing that?" "Who knows. I know practically nothing about my dad, so it's not like I have that huge of a connection with him" Denki's eyes widen as he connects the dots, "You're thinking about bringing Lily back instead of your dad, aren't you?" Izuki sighs and looks over at Denki, "Yes, I am"
