You just made this more difficult than it has to be. There is no other way. Shinji has to die. This isnt something that can be solved with a happy ending, and as Aeron, he will kill you all.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

No, but I know people who can, and that's all that matters.

- *Reappears.*
I go away for a few minutes to make a copy and you're both back to being stubborn as hell.
*Sighs and tosses the original file back to hawk.*
So what's the argument this time?

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Learn from watching and fighting them, yes.

@The World

Salvador: Then lets get on with it.
*Takes up the sword and begins training with a restrained but somewhat still belligerent approach. This mainly consists of me swinging at them with odd timings and fighting them first before studying their movements. This continues to happen over the course of the next few days and onwards.*

When you hear a voice you don't recognize.

@The World

Salvador?: Then I'll be taking my leave, as Salvador is quite capable of handling this. It was a fun surprise to be drawn here and chat, but I have my own things to be doing now. Till the next time.
*I seem to take a bow before my eyes turn back to normal and I assume a more disgruntled expression and grumble.*
Salvador: So I get to deal with this part of the training huh?
*Sighs and looks even further annoyed.* Whatever. So all I have to do is bash these things and learn from them?

*We enter a wide-open area with many living training dummies that are made of a white material* These are your sword training mentors. They'll adjust to your Reiatsu to keep even with you, so replicate their movements, watch as they fight each other, and fight them all so you can learn how to fight with that zanpakuto you're holding.

@The World

Salvador?: When will I know that I'm done?

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

*Went into a door for a moment then came back with a sword while you were resting* Here. *Tosses it to you when you stand up* Start pouring your Reiatsu into that, and start practicing with it. Follow me. *Goes over to another door*

@The World

Salvador?: whoa. *Fumbles a bit while catching it, after which I unsheath it and follow, adding Reiatsu into the blade.*

Hawk: ... I'll speak with my superior.

@souleaterfan320

Alright.
In the meantime then, I'll refrain from helping in this fight.
*Vanishes.*

Hawk:
Fair enough, but we did. They didnt budge, so we advnaced. This would be what I believe is our fourth encounter with beings at this base.

@souleaterfan320

hmmmmm.......

What if I, as a neutral party, were to try and work as a negotiator between you and them?
If you can at least reach an agreement between the two groups, it will be less time and energy wasted on both sides, and you might make at least some progress.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

Hawk: they have no reason to believe us, and would only be in the way.

@souleaterfan320

They're gonna be in the way regardless, so maybe taking a less "I'll kill you here and now" kind of approach might at least get you somewhere.

Hawk:
We won't have a choice. The people here defend their own regardless of circumstances. Much like a group of unintelligent apes protecting a tiger.

@souleaterfan320

Well when the first thing you say is "I'm here to kill your friend," it doesn't exactly make them inclined to help, especially when you leave out the important context.

Hawk:
*its titled Project Aeron. It goes into deep detail the lengths that Kirina went through through methods of torture to make Shinji into a heartless monster, but the end results were labeled as a severe case of Split personality disorder*

Shinji, though not directly the issue, will lead to the downfall of us all. Aeron is a dangerous and evil, vile creature, and must be eradicated. But unfortunately... to kill Aeron, we have to kill Shinji as a byproduct.

@souleaterfan320

- *Takes a moment to read through it, and then puts it away.*
That is quite a problem... but as it stands it looks like your current method of trying to resolve it really isn't getting you anywhere.
