~Roman's POV~

   I was sitting in the corners of my mind when I saw all of this happen, and to say the least, I was shocked that Remus still cared about me. Then Pride appeared in my mind as well, he walked towards me "don't think I'm gonna give you back your body" he said and I stood up "oh yes you will" I said. He smirked "oh yeah? how?" "how about a fight? whoever wins gets control of my body" he thought about it for a second before replying "alright, let's do it" "but" I said and he looked at me questioningly "yes?" "we don't kill one another, the only way the other one wins is if the other gives up or gets knocked out" he slowly nodded "fine, we won't kill each other" I nodded and got ready to fight. But what he did't know is that I am not keeping that promise.

(I'm sorry if this fight scene is terrible)

    I pulled out my normal sword while he pulled out a black sword with a fiery orange handle and ruby red gem.  He swung first and I narrowly blocked it, then I went to attack his shoulder but he also blocked it.  He then made fire appear out of thin air, I tried my best not to breath too much of the smoke "aw, are you gonna give up?" Pride said in a sickeningly sweet tone "no way, not a chance" I said and he laughed bitterly "alright then, but just know that I can and will make things worse" we fought for a while, and we were both beaten up really good, but neither of us wanted to stop.

    I was on the ground with Pride standing above me "give up yet?" he asked "never" I said, then it hit me, we were in my mind so I could make anything I want or do anything I want. So I decided to summon more flames and directed them towards Pride, he widened his eyes in shock "nononono" he said, hurt by the flames that burn higher and higher, clutching a broken crown of fire "look at you, all alone in the final scene, but you're the one and only Candle King, how can this happen?" I say in mock disbelief and he looks at me sourly before he dies, well, more or less just crumbles to ash.

    I looked at the pile of ashes "what a pity, that Candle King" I said before returning to my original body, wearing my original version of clothes, just a little torn. I sat there for a few minutes just going over what happened, then the dungeon door opened to reveal Remus standing there "oh my god bro, you did it! You got rid of Pride!" he said as he came up to hug me and I hugged him back "yes, yes I did" he pulled away from me "tell me how it went, I want Every. Single. Detail" I chuckled before telling what happened in my mind, not leaving a single detail out. And when I finished, he just looked at me in awe "so that's basically what happened" I said and he got up "c'mon, we need to got to the Light Side so that Patton and Virgil can apologise" he said as I also got up "sure" I said and we headed towards the Light Side.
