Magio: ...
The next thing Magio saw was a gun pointed at his forehead. Giovanni was in front of him, frustrated like Fael.
Lilly: Giovanni?!
Giovanni: ... You're not the only one who's frustrated with the desire of leave. But let's not make this the finale.
The door suddenly closed and got filled with chains.
Magio: ...?!
Giovanni: Magio, let's reflect a little. Who are you?
Magio: I'm the Dream Sprite-
Giovanni: Wrong. *puts his finger in the trigger*
Lilly: Don't do that!! If you do...!!
Giovanni: Don't you get it? Are you so blind?
Magio: What... are you talking about?
Giovanni: Magio, I'm being honest. I'm tired of you going out and being the shield for everyone.
Magio: Ah...!!
Giovanni: And that's how he feels. Do you really think he came to hear you say words that has that emblematic sentence "I don't care about myself, as long everyone is safe"? He didn't, and I didn't as well.
Necrox: A-Alright, if you're simply going to talk, let that gun down-
And then, a gunshot echoed. On their thoughts, he shot Magio. But the angle wasn't exactly aimed at his face. Rather, it grazed his hair.
BGM: Goddess gardena
Magio: !!... huh?!
Giovanni: ... This isn't what the world does with those who act like that. This is what you'll eventually do with yourself.
Magio: I... I will... kill myself?!
Giovanni: That smile of yours... this energetic feeling of staying beside everyone...this will fade away. I know this because I was just like you.
Magio: You... were like me...?
Giovanni: Always putting the others beside me, always doing what they wanted without any sign of disagreement... and that's what happened. I lost my smile, my energy to move on, my feelings and the love everyone had for me.
Magio: ... Giovanni...
As Giovanni finally lowered his gun, Magio had a flashback. About his talking with Rosenkreuz and Fael before the fight against Spiritia.
Magio remembered of the cold expression Fael showed him. And reminded of Rosenkreuz's words. Although he wanted, never he would be the one that saves all.
Magio: ... You mean... I will be alone... if I don't change the way I act...?!
Giovanni: You understood it now? Then, you say you don't have a dream, but I don't buy that even if you wanted me to. Magio, with the most sincere emotion possible, tell to all of us: what do you really want? What is the wish that you want fulfilled?
Magio thought about it and then, tears fell from his eyes. Then, suddenly, it started to rain. Giovanni smiled as he finally spoke.
Magio: I... I... want to be with everyone!! I don't want to be lonely!!
Giovanni: ... Finally...
Magio: For all of my life, I was always treated like a prince, like an important figure! I... thought I had the true definition of reality, but I never had! Then, I was finally able to be set free, and to explore the world! I always made many friends, and I treasure each one of them! And I try to show my emotions to them...
Magio: But, everytime I try to act with my emotions, I hesitate... because I don't know if what I want will hurt someone or not! And the fact that it will hurt this someone leads me to the possibility that they will leave me alone because of my actions! That's why I'm always putting others in front of myself! Because I want to be with everyone!!
Magio fell into his knees and cried. Giovanni got near him, kneeled and hugged Magio.
Magio: !!
Giovanni: Then, you don't have to worry. You know, whenever things are bad, I'll be there for you. That's the promise I'm doing right now.
Magio: Gio... vanni...!!
Magio hugged Giovanni tightly and his tears poured out more faster. This was the true Magio. A lonely boy wanting to have people beside him.
