Red Leader was back to his usual self.. harsh, intimidating, cold hearted. But why? Just about a week ago, he had perked up, even smiled. But now his blood red eyes shimmered with murder once again.. he wouldn't even take the time to greet you in the halls anymore. Did something happen?.. maybe you should take a break from learning more about him. . .

(Your POV)
You had decided to quit trying to uncover more secrets about that red bastard. He was now acting as he had before. He wasn't the man you spoke with.. the man that had smiled and laughed. The murder, the fury everything. It was all back. Just last night, he killed a soldier that was trying to escape. Everyone's quieted down now, they're all back to being afraid of him, they're no longer focused on you. Maybe there is no way to change him, maybe you should just give us. Vivian and Seleta told you it was no use. . .

(Tord's POV)
I shouldn't have opened up to that young soldier. I'm not quite sure why I did. I shouldn't have smiled or laughed. A leader should have nothing blocking his or her path. Friends and lovers will do that, they take time away from your life that is quickly fading. What would need friends for? What would I need love for? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Love, and friends. They're useless. . .

Isn't it strange? Just the slightest mistake can change someone, bring back who they once were.. this world is a dangerous place, people are worse.. especially him. Tonight, Red Leader murdered two more soldiers in their sleep..
"for fun~. . ." He said. Things were taking dark turns, Red Leader was as bad as he had been before. Possible even more of a threat now that he was taking soldiers lives as they slept.
"Hello dearie~. . ." He'd say is he walked past. His eyes burning the the wildfire in his mind. Yet they were as cold and dead as his heart and soul. Why was he like this.. one minute you could be having a rather friendly conversation with him, the next. He could kill you as you blink. This man could never keep a family.. he'd kill them, even children.. you needed to get out of here. Fast.. but he'd kill you. For now, just stay. And pray that he shakes this off. . .

Red Leader snapped again. maybe it was (Y/N) that caused it, she had been trying to get information after all. But I doubt it. Even she can't make him snap. Here, when Red Leader snaps like this, we call it wildfire. Normally it's either a soldier or a memory that causes wildfire, although sometimes, it's just him. It's just who he is. I feel as though that's what has happened, wildfire started simply because of him being himself. . .

(Paul's POV)
If I leave I'll get myself killed.. I have to say here, I can't lie and go back to the Red Army Base, I have to stay here, in the Red Army Castle.. I'm afraid I'm next. One wrong move, and that's the string of my life cut by him, with sharp scissors, like knives. . .

//you guys thought he was going to be nice that's fast? WRONG\\
