- “Stop fighting me. I’m not your enemy!” Jax said.
- The battlefield swirled around Yatsuhashi, and Jax’s voice seemed to
- hammer into his brain. His grip loosened, but he shook his head and flipped
- Jax onto his back forcefully. “No,” Yatsuhashi growled. “You listen to me!
- Forget.”
- Yatsuhashi pinned him, knees pressing into Jax’s chest. Now that they
- were so close, he could see that Jax wasn’t much older than him.
- Yatsuhashi was stronger, heavier physically, but Jax had more Aura
- right now, and Yatsuhashi was running low. Too low to put much into his
- Semblance. After all of this, he was going to fail.
- He felt himself slipping back into the dark corner of his mind as Jax
- reasserted control over him. Then he felt a hand on his arm. He looked and
- saw Gill. The last thing he needed.
- He started to shake her off when he saw her other hand was on Jax’s
- shoulder. And then Yatsuhashi felt Aura flood into him, like a breath of
- fresh air.
- He punched it all into his Semblance, making Jax forget. Jax suddenly
- went slack. He felt Jax’s presence jolt out of his mind. And when he looked
- around, he saw many Crown soldiers’ faces waking up on the battlefield.
- ....
- Jax, meanwhile, was lying still, stupefied at Yatsuhashi’s feet, eyes wide
- open.
- “Jax?” Yatsuhashi asked.
- No response. But tears were streaming down the man’s cheeks.
- If you wanted to, you could wipe anyone’s mind clean, Jax had said.
- Yatsuhashi stumbled back, disgusted with himself. In the heat of the
- moment, he might have overdone it—but he’d never intended to go that far.
- This was why he had avoided using his Semblance for so long.
