[His pace stutters, then his grip tightens on Saya's hand and he walks forward.]
You're dead. Nothing survives the Samadhi Fire and MK going all out.
Hm, true. It makes your father's imprisonment a true shame. If you had kept yourself from losing control a little while longer, you would have been able to prevent it entirely, but instead, it had to be removed for your safety.
[He grits his teeth and moves right through the illusion.] It doesn't matter. You can't hurt me.
[There is laughter, and whispers start up around them as the girl floats along beside them.] Oh Red Son. We both know you were never afraid of me because I was powerful. You knew I was dangerous, you knew I was a threat, but that wasn't what terrified you so.

[He breathes in and lets it out.]
[Stand up. Act. You're needed. Just like when mother needed you. Just like everyone has needed you to keep acting.]
[He pushes himself to his feet, stumbles a bit, then finds his footing.] Let's go. [He tugs her hand, heading to the front door.]
[And there is a young girl in front of them.]
