How Long Has It Been? Days? Months? Weeks? Years? With This Place Having No Time It's Impossible To Figure Out How Long I've Been Here. I Float Around In Cold And Endless Darkness As My Body Aches. I Curl Myself Up Into A Ball And I Cry Silent Tears As I Allow My Thoughts To Run Amuck. Has All The Work I've Put In Been For Nothing? Is This Really How I'm Going To Die? To Think That I Won't Be Able To See My Daughter Again Hurts More Than Any Of The Bruises Or Broken Bones That I Have. I'll Never Be Able To Give Her The Closure That She Deserves, I Owe It To Yashido For All That I've Done.

As My Mind Begins To Wander Lavinas Face Flashes Through My Mind. I Can Feel Myself Getting Angrier As I Think About What She Did To Me. The Memories Of Us Lying Together Under Stars, Of Us Helping People, All The Times Where We Helped One Another. To Think That All Of That Was Fake, Just So That She Could Slide In And Steal My Universe Away From Me. An Angel Centered Universe She Said? If She Decides To Up And Destroy Entire Races Of People No One Will Be There To Reel Her In. Whis Was Right About Her. I Should've Watched Out For Her. I Should've Had My Guard Up Around Her More. I Never Should've Trusted Her. Now Look At Where I Am Now.

I Start To Yell Out As Loud As I Can. Not Out Of Anger, But Just To Have The Chance To Hear Something Other Than My Own Breathing. This Is A Punishment Worse Than Death. To Not Be Able To Do Anything. To Serve No Purpose Other Than To Just Exist And Fade Away. As I Continue To Float Throughout The Void I Eventually Find Myself  Floating Above What Looks Like A Destroyed Fighting Arena. I Remember Whis Saying Telling Me Something About A Tournament Of Power. Is This Where It Was Held At? I Fly Down And I Land In The Middle Of The Arena.
I Immediately Sense Another Energy Level And I Quickly Turn Around. The Person That i Find Has His Hands In His Pockets. He's Wearing What Looks Like A Purple Jacket As He Kicks A Rock On The Ground.

"Who The Hell Are You?" I Ask Him. He Turns To Me And He Starts To Laugh.

"It Looks Like I Still Got It. My Name Is Hit. I'm An Assassin From Universe Six." He Says To Me.

"An Assassin? Did The Grand Priest Throw You In Here Too?" I Ask.

"Oh No. I've Been Here Since The Tournament Of Power Ended. See. I'm Not An Actual Person. I'm Just A Clone." Hit Says To Me.

I Give Him A Confused Look As He Looks At Me.

"Don't Think Too Hard About It. I Know. A Clone Lasting This Long Is Pretty Stupid." He Says To Me.

"I Think Just You Being A Clone Is Pretty Stupid Too." I Say Back To Him. The Both Of Us Start To Laugh As A Wave Of Relief Washes Over Me For The First Time In What Feels Like An Eternity.

But Immediately After We're Done Laughing He Starts To Disintegrate In Front Of Me.

"I Guess My Time Is Up. After All This Time, I Can Finally Go." Hit Says As He Sits On The Ground. "Even Though We Didn't Have Much Time To Talk I'm Glad I Was Able To Share A Laugh With Someone In This God Forsaken Place." He Says As He Completely Disappears From In Front Of Me.
