@hagroden@Remipa Awesome@Kurai AssassinThis was all very sad. Mithias was exhausting his most desperate measures. Hank was almost beyond reasoning... almost. Mithias watched as he freed Tony and actually forced him off to safty... so that meant Hank did still have some care for others left behind his madness.
Mithias let Tony go and turned back to Hank, his lips tight, and his eyes filled with pain. It was more emotion than Hank had ever seen from the 700 year old vampire. Mithias truly didn't want Hank to die, even more than he didn't want the hundreds of humans who had resettled in Kilo Point to suddenly get evaporated. "You..." Mithias clenched a fist at his side. He said sternly. "You can't do that to me, Hank." Mithias was forced to take a huge gamble.
"I'm not leaving, Hank. You're going to kill me if you let that bomb go. Even if you drive off, I will still be here, protecting those people, or dying with them. Is that what you want? ... Maybe you are suffering much more than I anticipated. Maybe you do want to die and you don't care who gets nuked with you, well I'm telling you there IS another solution!" Mithias was serious as he raised his voice. He calmed back down. "I know a way, Hank, and you would be a fool not to try it with me. You're not the vile fiend you fear yourself to be, Hank. This is not something you would do if you were in your right mind. Disarm the bomb. If my plan doesn't work, then... I'll kill you myself." Mithias silently prayed he wouldn't ever have to follow through with that promise.
