Cody bowed his head and closed his eyes. They didn't understand him, they didn't want his help. He couldn't allow them to destroy the world...and yet he wanted to save them. He didn't see an option that was both. As he found himself flung into the air, his body reacted before his mind could truly understand what was happening. Light enveloped him, cradling him before placing him safely on the ground. 

"I'm sorry" He whispered, his voice softer then the wind. 

He was sorry about having to do this, having to fight them when he didn't want to. He was sorry about having to stop them, but he couldn't let them destroy the world. His heart broke, knowing that he had failed them. Knowing that he couldn't save them, couldn't show them kindness. Couldn't show them, there was still good in the world. It broke his heart, shattering it into a million pieces. 

"I'm sorry"

As he faced his would be killer, his eyes able to perceive the light, growing fainter it seemed by the mine, of Thy's being, Cody felt tears sting his eyes, and he didn't try and stop them. They fell, shamelessly, down his cheeks, his heart heavy, his body seeming to be filled with a never endless supply of them.

"I'm sorry"

He bowed his head again, steeling himself for what he had to do. 

"I don't want to do this"

His body shook with the emotions churning through him. He knew the boy didn't seem to understand him, knew that there was no way he could convey how he wanted to help, how sorry he was. Nothing. He began to gather light to him, bright, encasing him, letting himself fill to bursting with the bright, light.
