Agree to disagree

Okay, this chapter actually has some mentions of things that actually happened in real life. I hope I've got them all correctly. Please leave a vote and a comment if I've got anything wrong.

Izuku's point of view

Everything went exactly as I expected it to honestly I was kind of concerned when everything was going well because it was going a little too well but I guess it all worked out in the end minister facing judgement for his crimes. The Duches is back in power and the corruption of this has taken a major blow , since the Prime Minister so chatty and want to reduce the sentence as much as possible so we sold out other people he worked with along with the security guards that were supposed to be protecting him. They sold him out told us basically everything. so even with his testimony, he still getting the life sentence he won't hurt anyone ever again

To make matters even better kota woke up and despite that he is still very weak, he's going to be okay. We're going to transport him back to the Jedi temple where he can receive the best medical care so hopefully everything is going to turn out okay. With ahsoka job done and with kota on the recovery, the two of us are returning to the temple ready to continue our duties there

However, before we leave the duchess  wants to have a word: you must understand now that I didn't bring you here to teach moreover, I needed someone to look into this but I had no one to trust

So that's why she brought it in ahsoka it's a smart move. I'll be a dangerous one partly because she didn't tell us the real reason as to why so for her that was a bit of a gamble then again my plan also was a bit of a gamble as well so I don't think I have any right to judge

Ahsoka bow her head: it was a pleasure Duchess, but really the credit should go to Izuku he's the one that figured out that it was the Prime Minister behind all of this and he's the one that came up with the plan to catch him in the act

The Duchess turns her attention to me and it's clear that she still dislikes me to win a nauseating degree: I see the plan to endanger the cadets was your idea

I knew that's why she was going with this to be fair. I can't blame her. I did put their lives in danger but I did try to put them in the least amount of danger as possible: I understand my plan was dangerous and they did put the cadets lives in danger but the cadets were already involved in this plot and they were going to do something about it with or without our help. And I could tell that they were going to get involved with or without our consent believe me I speak from Personal experience those cadets are good kids and the problem with that is they have good hearts meaning they'll do anything to do the right thing just like I would do. Even so, I am still sorry. I just thought it was the easiest and quickest way to catch the prime minister by putting him off guard.

The Duchess didn't seem to like my answer: that kind of behaviour cannot be tolerated even though your plan got the Prime Minister arrested your plan was incredibly violent. The guards that you knocked out were in severe condition several broken bones and Bruce faces. Some of them were scared to be even touched by someone else you had scared them to the point of where they feared for their lives

I understand that that was wrong, but truthfully, I was just so angry: I understand that it was wrong and I let my anger get the best of me but they poisoned children and someone I consider a little brother and not to shoot my own horn here but my plan did work. The Prime Minister's lost all connections. The corruption on your planet has taken a major hit because of his capture. I'm not trying to take credit. I'm just saying that maybe you should look on the positive side.

She once again scenarios at me and it's clear that no matter what I say she's going to be angry: a positive side would be if this was conducted with less violence and in the proper manner your message spit in the face of them what I'm trying to teach my people to be pacifist instead you have shown them that violence gives results and that is something I do not approve of

Again with the nonviolence thing I mean I get it and in someway I respect her perspective of the whole thing. It's just: my people have a saying actions speak louder than words... And not to sound offensive to you Duchess but you've only spoke about pacifism and your actions aren't your fault what your people are learning from this pacifism is that it allows corruption to come in that is what your people think is the price of pacifism corruption and why that is not your fault. It's because that you speak of only passivism and not display it through your actions.

Ahsoka woke up slightly nervous in her voice. I can see why I'm not exactly being polite to someone that's essentially royalty but I just have to say these things: Izuku maybe you should-

She was Interrupted by the Duchess: how dare you? Do you claim that my words mean nothing but violence will often speak louder than words.

I shrug: I said actions speak louder than words that doesn't necessarily mean they have to be violent, we have pacifists on earth to the difference between our version of pacifism is the fact that pacifist usually help people and while you do help people that just you in no way in body what my people would call passivism you claim that people can be reasoned with yet you have not tried to reason with the separatist because you think that makes you a part of war

The Duchess who actually gets off her throne and walk straight up to me glaring at me: you dare claim that I do not embody my own beliefs! And what do you all people know of passivism anyway from what I've heard your planet has more bloodshed and war than mine ever did and you claim that some of your people are pacifist that is laughable

Ignoring the insult I decided to just explain to her what I mean: you know there were people that were pacifist who took part in some wars because they didn't like the idea of them sitting behind while people died for the country one in particular was called Desmond doss he took part in a war as a field medic and he was a pacifist

The Duchess: any pacifist who chooses a side of war is not a pacifist

I stopped her from continuing as I interrupt her with the rest of the story: that's just it he was a pacifist. He never broke his oath he never carried a gun and he never killed a single soldier. Instead he saved 75 soldiers in a single battle and he did that or without carrying gun or without taking a life he was a pacifist but he took part in war because it felt wrong to him that people out there were dying that he could help, he was a hero that saved many lives and he's an inspiration for other people to say that you don't have to fight to help in a war you can find other ways to do so that is what it is and my people someone who isn't afraid to go into a dangerous situation to help others it's not someone who just says no to violence i'm sorry but that's how my people see passivism and as far as I'm concerned, I haven't seen that within you your actions are honourable and kind, but for me, I just don't... see things your way. I don't see how anything can change if some people would just said that I'm not going to take part in a war because I'm a pacifist because in my eyes, it's those people who don't want to use violence to help other people that are needed in war at least that's my opinion anyway

The Duchess didn't say anything instead she just looked at me shocked I don't think she wanted to believe that it was possible but a passivist really did take part in the war without breaking that vowels of nonviolence: be there as it may your people are still violent. It seems like you are determined to destroy each other.

I can't deny that it is still a problem to this day as well: I can't deny that Duchess... my people are violent and we do hurt each other sometimes for idiotic reasons and other times for reasons that some people don't completely understand but sometimes there's just evil in our world and we can't let it take over ... However sometimes in the midst of war that can be peace there was one time in one war on a Christmas Day where everyone just put down their guns and started to sing it never happened again not in any war anywhere but for just one day a miracle occurred where the world was just at peace just for one day it was a miracle It still talked about today as a way to unite humanity I know that you have your issues with war and violence because of what happened to your family but do not claim that violence isn't necessary because unfortunately as horrible violence can be it is also some thing that might be necessary in some cases. I'm sorry I went on for a bit there. I did not mean to speak all of your beliefs or speak of your convictions. I just not. I don't want you thinking my people are a bunch of violent warmongers we are peaceful, or at least we want to be

She seemed to accept this and just nodded neither of us say a word after that as me and my girlfriend just leave ready to meet up with Anakin who unfortunately has some worse news. We're already going back to the battlefield.
