The Villain You're Becoming

*Seeing no reason to keep my font now that I'm with Fando, and, frankly, curious to how it will play out, I give my font to Wolf.

*I have a font now. OK. Not even going to bother asking why. All I care about now is stopping The Beast. Their evil is all I can trust. Even Armored was evil. I don't trust anyone anymore. I can only trust that The Beast is evil.

*As I wander through the abyss, I begin to hear an instrumental. It sounds like a slow club song that's standard in films from the twenties. I hear the Author sing...

*"Hello there K.
Are you reading this today?
There's something I need to say.
And that's that in you I have faith.

I know you'll do what's right.
Take your mask off,
Live a good life.
It's not to late to end our fight.

Until you cross that wretched line."

*I follow the music as the beat escalates, becoming very similar to spy movie soundtracks mixed with 20s club music.

*"Now I know to you,
I seem to be in the wrong.
That I'm going to far.
That my mind's truly gone.

*I'm not gonna lie,
And say I'm totally sane,
You can still turn back...

*But not for long!

*We both know it's not to late!
You can still change your fate!
We can make amends,
And be best friends again.

*I know you know deep down,
That what you're planning is wrong.
But I have faith,
For you haven't done it yet.

*No matter how I try,
I still care about you.
Still trust you with my life.
Even if I must stop you.

*You can hate me,
But I ask that you see,
And change the path you're walking.
Please!

*You don't have to be the villain you're becoming.

*I have faith in you,
Even if you hate me,
That'll you'll change your mind,
And you'll do the right thing.

*All that I ask,
Is that you don't cross that line,
That wretched line,
That you've yet to cross!

*Maybe someday,
You'll see what I mean,
And then...

*We'll make amends!"

*The song ends as I find the Author dispelling a microphone into ink.

*"How much did you hear?" He sighs.

*"All of it," I reply.

*"Whelp," the Author shrugs, "it's probably better that way. Where are the others?"

*"They betrayed me," I reply.

*"Oh man I've been there," the Author chuckles, "man, I may have it bad, but I'm sure that many of those you represent have it much much worse huh?"

*"Yeah," I reply, "but what do you mean you have it bad?"

*"Oh," he smiles taking out a mask, "nothing important. Hey, you still cool with Fando?"

*"Yeah."

*"Great. She's to the west of here. That way."

*"Thanks."

*"Anytime."

*I begin to leave before I turn around and ask, "hey, Author?"

*"Yeah?" He replies.

*"Who's K?" I inquire.

*"I'd say no one important," he sighs, "but I'd be lying. She's one of the most important people in the world to me.

*"She betray you?"

*"Not yet, but she plans to. Although, it's not to late, and I have faith in her."

*"I see. Well good luck with that."

*"Be careful man. Those with masks are dangerous. Especially your mom within this story-"

*"We never speak of The Jackal."

*"You'll have to face them eventually."

*"But not yet."

*"OK OK. Farewell Wolf."

*"Farewell Author."

*I leave and continue towards Fando. Towards the truth...
