As Cloud lowered his arms, exhaling a tired breath, he was a little surprised when the sun started to explode. Mr. Bright warned them of the inevitable larger explosion that would follow and opened the path to more than likely their next bout. At Frisk’s command, even if he was already in motion, Cloud raced over to the door and jumped through. Once he and the others were safely on the other side, he glanced back at the door and Mr. Bright before it vanished. That fight had left Cloud with a strange feeling. Mr. Bright had been loyal to his emperor to the end. Loyalty wasn’t evil, and Cloud could honor it. He wondered; if Mr. Bright had chosen to come with them and save himself, would the respect he now held for him been the same? The swordsman looked over at Frisk and he could see that they suffered. The pacifist must have been traumatized by Mr. Shine’s death. They didn’t seem like they were accustomed to it or liked it really. Alicia didn’t make the situation any better. She was more soldier-minded than he was. She was thinking about the mission and the group’s survival, but she was failing to acknowledge the state of their team. In order for them to succeed, she was right. They all needed to be on the same page. Cloud walked over to Frisk and didn’t say a word to them before his gloved hand motioned behind the child’s head. He pulled Frisk against him into an embrace, letting them know in a silent way the he knew what they were feeling. They would have to be strong if they were all going to make it these next few floors. They were the leader, and they were going to need them to have a fresh mind. Cloud told Banjo-Kazooie and Alicia.
