- What happens when two hopes meet?
- “Hello, I’m Makoto Naegi.” He introduced himself.
- “I know.” Izuru said impassively, not at all bothering to do his part of the introduction.
- “Well I guess that’s a given. Then I’ll just cut to the chase.” Naegi briefly chuckled weakly and then ultimately hardened his face. A serious tone replaced his usual lighthearted one. “I’m not here to hurt you. In fact, it’s actually the opposite. I want to help you.”
- Izuru regarded him for a long while with a stoic face. “…Is that really the truth? What about your peers?”
- “I’ll be honest. Future Foundation wants you dead.” Naegi nervously admitted.
- “I see…” He replied not at all fazed by the news.
- “But even though I’m part of that, I’m still my own person.” “I don’t think anyone deserves to die no matter what they did. And that includes you, Kamukura. I want to help you.”
- “How boring.” He rebuffed. “If you really plan to help me then you’ll become a traitor. Not only to your organization but to the world as well.”
- “Even so, I want to help you!” Naegi said determinedly.
- “Why go through such lengths for me?” Izuru raised his chin as he coldly questioned him.
- “Because deep down I know that you’re a good person.” Naegi said with so much emotion that it was hard not be moved. “Because I believe in you.”
- “…” Izuru kept his silent stance not at all revealing any hint of emotion.
- Naegi raised his hand as he offered, “So will you let me help you?” He said it softly and with a certain alluring tenderness to it. He sounded warm and safe.
- “Do what you want.” Izuru deadpanned as he took Naegi’s hand and gave it a half-commitant shake. “It doesn’t interest me either way.”
- “Thank you.” Naegi instantly flashed his trademark hopeful smile. “You’ll get the help you need. I promise you.”
- What happens when two hopes meet?
- They don’t collide. Instead, they make contact.
- And maybe at some point, these two hopes would unite and create an even brighter future.
