43 -- [locked from hostiles]

So, I've come to a realization point.

I'm...

Hoshi, go on.

I'm going to...finally come to terms about my past.

I'm... not going to let him win anymore.

I'm not going to let him have his satisfaction anymore...when he and I fight.

I'm...not going to let him take everything he has from me for his own gain.

Kurayami Shichiyou...

You're not going to win anymore. While you may be the Darkness, I...will fight against you, but for a completely different reason besides revenge. You...have been hurt, I've felt this many a time from you.

...so, instead of fighting for revenge, I'll fight to save you from what you've become.

It may not be easy, it will be painful, but... if I can do that, then I can live happily knowing that...you have been saved.

So, my friends and other allies, I ask of you... Will you help a girl out with her new mission? I'd...very much appreciate it.

Thank you, everyone.
