Eveline: Yeah, and you still confuse me!

Duke: Haha, I don't blame you, dear. I work in mysterious ways! I'll be seeing you two later, I plan to stay in the remains of the village

Blue: It won't be remains for long, we are scouting the area so that it can be refurbished and that

Eveline: Just say rebuilt

Blue: I need to increase my vocabulary

Eveline: No you don't, just stay being idiotic

Blue: I refuse!

Eveline: Kill yourself!

Blue: I plan to!

Eveline: Goo-! Wa-Wait what?

Blue: Time to find a cliff and pull a Kratos!

Eveline: No! Blue wait! I'm sorry!

Blue: Bye have a great time!

Eveline: BLUE-!

Duke:.....They're adorable together, I should set up my shop soon. Who knows what sort of people would come and visit.

I had ran away from Eveline who was chasing me down while apologising to me. Of course I stopped and remind her that I'm not going to kill myself, but she wasn't fully convinced. She climbs on top of my back and doesn't show any signs of letting go.

Eveline: Onwards!

Blue: C-Come on, Eveline. This isn't needed

Eveline: Uhh, yes it is! I do not want to leave you out of my sight!

Blue: I'm not going to kill myself!

Eveline: Are you sure? You've been feeling really depressing lately.

Blue: Stop waffling! I'm fine!

Eveline refuses to let go so I could only sigh and walk ahead, scouting out the landscape for any information. I found Elena's house which was destroyed due to the Beeg explosion.

Then I had a look around the outskirts, pinpointing the locations of the Beneviento House and Heisenberg's factory. Donna's house was fine, and I know she would be happy to know that it's okay.

When we talked, she also mentioned how the Beneviento House was important to her. Naturally, of course, it's her family house and she had many memories living there.

Now onto Heisenberg's factory, I don't know what his feelings are towards the factory. But if they're good feelings, then he will happy to know that his factory is....mostly okay.

There were some.....holes, but the one in Dimitrscu castle was bigger. That's something he can be happy about, I am aware of his sibling beef with Alcina and he would definitely laugh at her.

And then she will clap back that his place wasn't left unscathed. And they will go on and on and on-!

Eveline: Blue

Blue: Yeah?

Eveline: You're spacing out again

Blue: Ah damn, my bad. Where to next?

Eveline: Well, we can always go to Castle Dimitrscu and inspect the inside. Or we can do that after and explore the area you fought Moreau in

Blue: Ah....yeah, Moreau.

Eveline: Are you okay?

Blue: Yeah, yeah I'm fine.

I lead the way to Moreau's Reservoir, which wasn't much anymore after the explosion. The water was still gone after Ethan drained it during our battle with Moreau, and there was basically nothing left.

Blue: Moreau....the one lord that I couldn't save

Eveline: You tried your best, Blue, but he didn't want to listen to what you had to say.  His lust for Miranda's love and care clouded his mind, and you had no choice but to kill him.

Blue: He was the only one to actually care about Miranda. Heisenberg didn't, Alcina's love was more based on respect, and Donna was just loyal.....Moreau....was obsessed.

Eveline: Do you want to move on?

Blue: Yeah, let's roll

I walk towards Castle Dimitrscu, with Eveline still hanging onto me. As I walked to my next location, Eveline could sense the sadness inside of me somehow and rested her head on my back.

It felt nice and comforting, and it did make me feel better.

Ethan: Blue, I know you're a good kid, you're my brother so I know you best......but you can't safe everyone.....

Yeah....I'm starting to remember Ethan's words now.....does he have a point?

Ethan: Blue, it will hurt because you can't take it when you aren't able to save someone. You always see the good in people, and that's fine.....but some people can't be saved, no matter how hard you try

Blue: Ethan.......

Ethan: And when you try hard with these things, you can lose your life like that, now this Moreau creature is too obsessed with Miranda so please.....don't always go for the mercy option.....

I had always made it my goal to spare any of my enemies, because at the end of the day, I have no enemies. Trusting Ethan's words isn't a bad thing because he is my brother, he knows what's best for me.

But....listening to his words...goes against my ideology. Is it perfect? I'd like to think so, but.....some people might not think that.

And now I don't even know what to think about it. I think I'll decide to trust in my ideology, but some changes might have to be made.

After that.....little rant, I was finally at the last location of my scouting mission.

Blue: We're here, Castle Dimitrscu

Eveline: The first of the four locations

Blue: I think this was the most interesting experience. Probably the most fun as well, exploring the castle, using my secret technique of running away.....and building bonds between the residents!

Eveline: Are you sure? You were screaming a lot

Blue: Ehh, It was more for comedic purposes

Eveline: It was certainly a laugh everytime you did something. Even if I was bamboozled by your actions.

Blue: That's the aim of my game, to bamboozle everyone-! Okay, why is the entrance blocked?

Eveline: Must've been the wind....

Blue:....

Eveline: Okay, as you can see, debris is in the way. Probably from the destruction that the explosion occured. So you can either move the rocks with your freakish strength, or find another way to enter

Blue: Hmmm...another way it is

Eveline: And that other way is?

I step back so that I can see the outer layer of the castle, and aimed my grapple hook at the top of a spire. Eveline panicked but quickly held on as I shoot the hook out, it grips something firmly and reels me up quickly.

Once I reached the top, I grabbed hold of something else and boost myself up. I was now on one of the roofs of Castle Dimitrscu and walked forward until I could see the courtyard.

I place Eveline down and made my way to the ground of the courtyard. Then I look up and held my arms out as Eveline jumps down for me to catch her safely. I set Eveline on her feet, and she tries to return to my back, only to find out that she wasn't allowed back on.

Eveline: What? What's wrong?

Blue: Oh yeah, you're walking now

Eveline: Why?

Blue: Because you need to walk more, you lazy brat

Eveline: Wha?! Who are you calling a brat?!

Blue: So you are lazy?

Eveline: S-Shut up!

Blue: Haha. Okay, now let's lock in and see what Castle Dimitrscu is looking like nowadays.

We go inside and saw that the interior wasn't too bad. Some things had fallen over due to the aftermath of the explosion, and there were some damage dealt to the walls and stairs.

Blue: Ooo, Alcina will not like this

Eveline: I'm sure she won't be too mad. The castle is still intact and it's only going to take about....two to three months of repairment?

Blue: Yeah but Alcina can be easily angered when it comes to stuff like this. Let's see what the rest of the castle is looking like

We walk around and explored the entire castle, from the dining rooms, to the bedrooms, and even the dungeon which was fine.....in its own way.

Some of the rooms on the ground floor weren't in peak condition, and I was beginning to think that we might need Bob the Builder to pull up.

Eveline: Isn't this the hole you fell through?

Blue: Hmm? Oh yeah, well actually if you look up....you can see that I fell through many floors.

Eveline: Oh....right. Alcina caught you in her room and she slammed you through the many floors.

Blue: And then I ended up in the Dungeons

Eveline: I would ask how you're alive, but we know the answer now.

Blue: Yes. I alone, am the honoured one.

Eveline: [Sighs] You and your ego

Blue: What ego? I'm being real

Eveline rolls her eyes and walks ahead, I follow after as she has a look around, but then I had a bad feeling all of a sudden. The danger....was ahead, so I grab Eveline by the shoulder and pull her back and into my arms.

As soon as I did that, something had flown from the side and would've hit Eveline if I didn't pull her away. It was a sniper bullet, and already I was locked in for a fight.

Eveline: T-Thanks...

Blue: No problem, now who the hell did that?

???: That would be me

Someone walks out from the corner, and both of us couldn't believe who it was. Then again....I shouldn't be surprised because this man wants me dead.

The Masked Man....also known as Ezekiel.

Blue: Hold up! You're here?

Ezekiel: I am......and it seems that you managed to survive having your heart literally being ripped out of your body.

Blue: Yeah, and then it just....came back?

Ezekiel: Great, you're evolving. This wasn't meant to happen during the development process but it's what I get for insisting that you should've been strapped with potential

Blue: I'm going to assume that you were looking for me?

Ezekiel: Of course, and I'm planning to kill you permentanly

Blue: Is that even possible?

Ezekiel: Why don't we find out?

Ezekiel takes off his Mask, showing his face, he had snowy white hair and a face that's seen it all. It also was familiar because I remember what his Daughter looked like.

He crushes his mask underneath his feet. This was basically a sign to tell me he is going to end things now...and I'll be glad to end the past today.

I'm not his puppet.

I'm not his creation.

I'm my own master now.

Blue: Eveline, Step to the side. This is my fight

Eveline: What? Are you sure that you can take him on?

Blue: If I don't, who will?

Eveline: You and your damn one liners. Fine, just....be careful

Blue: Don't worry, I won't be.

Eveline sighs and steps to the side, I focus my attention to Ezekiel who threw his sniper rifle away and took out a gun. He aims it at me and pulls the trigger, and at the same time, I duck and shoot him in the abdomen with my Deagle.

It slightly pushed him back, so I run in and kick him in the side of his neck. But this did nothing at all, and I was punched by Ezekiel's freakish strength, which sent me back and into the wall.

Blue: O-Ow

Ezekiel: Did you forget that I injected myself with the upgrade version of your abilities? You cannot beat me, Blue

Blue: Yes, but I can....run away!
______________

3rd POV
______________

Blue turns and dashes to the side, Ezekiel entertains the idea and gives chase by walking quickly while Eveline wondered what to do. She ultimately decides to go another way so that she can watch the chase and then battle unfold.

Just like out of a scene in Resident Evil 2 and 3, Blue runs from the man that wants him dead. He traverses the insides of the castle, trying his best to lose Ezekiel in the many turns and hallways.

But Ezekiel knew where Blue was everytime, as if he had a motion detector in his hand. But this was another ability added to him, he could feel Blue's scent and he could hear his footsteps, making it easy for Ezekiel to track him down.

Ezekiel: It's like the old saying goes, Blue! You can run! But you can't hide!

Blue ignored Ezekiel and kept exploring the castle, Ezekiel didn't know what the boy had planned and wasn't bothered at all. Because no matter what Blue does, it will be useless against him.

And that's what Ezekiel thought whenever Blue was in his point of view, he would shoot at Ezekiel. The bullets didn't really do much, despite piercing his flesh, which did surprise the former leader of CORE.

He thought his resistance would be able to stop the bullets, but there was something off about them.

And he would be right as before Blue left for this mission, he switched out his normal bullets with these experimental ones that himself, Jake and Heisenberg worked on.

They hadn't properly tested it, but Blue thought that he might as well take it. And it was a good thing he did, because he could see that it was working.

And now he had his masterplan set, because he didn't just upgrade the ammunition for his guns.

Ezekiel: Going to the top? Good, I can watch you fall and break every bone in your body!

Ezekiel followed Blue at the top of Castle Dimitrscu, it was the same place that held Alcina Dimitrscu's special dagger. As Ezekiel reaches the small room, he looks around Blue until he hears a weapon being loaded.

He turns around and sees Blue standing there, with his grenade launcher in hand. The same one he used to commit many war crimes.

Ezekiel: Oh.....well I've been played.

Blue: Indeed you have, Hasta Luego

Blue pulls the trigger and blasted Ezekiel through the glass window. Parts of the walls was destroyed and Blue watched as Ezekiel went flying across the air and into the forest below.

Blue:.....Damn, that was a bigger punch than I thought it would have
