A pleasure to meet the both of you, I only wish it were under better circumstances." Aiden stretched a little, wincing a little as he felt the sting from the bite on his leg. It wasn't a deep wound, but it was still a bit of a hinderance to his movements. "But that aside, we should probably go look for any survivors or straggling monsters that maybe around, they could be some who require some medical attention. I hope those cards aren't just one use only." Aiden finished with a chuckle, trying to lighten the mood some what with a slight joke.

But no sooner had he felt that relief, a bitter shame filled his heart asnhe thought about his actions. He had run away from the fught like a coward and had cried like a baby. How was he going to get stronger if he ran away from tough fights like this. 'I'm not running from another fight ever again. I will not be the weakest link in the chain that is Vyper Bolt. I will get stronger, I will beat Sable, I will beat Revan, and I wuill never allow myself to show such cowardice again.' Xavier rubbed his eyes dry, a new determinationnset in them, a dark fire that burned with a hunger for power that seemed to only grow as time went on. In the depths of his mind, deeper than where even Cassandra, the voice in his head, dwelled, a figure draped in shadow smiled, his grin wide and his red eyes filled with malicious intent, [i]"Soon, I will wake, and then I will give you the power you seek. But for know, you must wait. In time, you shall know who you truly are, and all will crumble under our power."[/i]
