Part 34

Endgame
---

Before this, Solidus reveals that he was the one that killed Jack's parents, then adopted him and raised him as a child soldier.

NOT THE FACE NOT THE FACE

Whew. Wow, great aim there, killer.

"I played Samurai Showdown a billion times on the hardest difficulty and even beat that one chick who destroys your weapon and reverses your controls. Let's rock."

Or, y'know, we could just talk first.

Solidus reveals that Jack's nanomachines in his cerebral cortex have hidden information on the Patriots, including their name and location. Looks like he's gonna have to do some skull diggin' to find it. Wow, that could be taken really wrong.

The second the fight starts, Solidus kicks me in the head and asks, "What's wrong with you?" Besides the fact that I've got a giant boot mark on my face?

ARGH FUCK THATS NOT FAIR

Fuck this, I'm going to kill you while on fire!

WACHAW

Eat it! EAT IT

What now?! Oh shit I hope he doesn't eat that ration...

Thank you NOW DIE

HURG

Go here for awesome 11 megabyte sword fighting dual.

Ooh. That's never going to heal if you don't stop picking at it.

Cue to SYMBOLICALLY FALLING OVER

For the City that Never Sleeps it's, uh, pretty sleepy lookin'.

There they are.

"There's no such thing in the world as absolute reality. Most of what they call real, is actually fiction. What you think you see is only as real as your brain tells you it is.

We can tell other people about...having faith. What we had faith in. What we found importnt enough to fight for. It's not whether you were right or wrong, but how much faith you were willing to have, that decides the future."

"Listen, don't obses over words so much. Find the meaning behind the words, then decide. You can find your own name, and your own future.

Whatever you choose will be you.

I know you didn't have much in terms of choices this time, but everything you felt, throught about during this mission is yours. And what you decide to do with them is your choice."

"Yeah. A clean slate. A new name, new memories. Choose your own legacy."

Raiden tosses the dog tags into the crowd...

"This disc contains the list of all the Patriots. The virus is coded to destroy only a specific part of GW, namely the information about the Patriots' identities. Which means that there's a parameter coded in here that defines what that information is."

Raiden turns around and sees...

...Rosemary waving her arms around like a 'tard.

A cold blooded murderer since you where a ki - er, an individual! Yes.

I stare at the stars, and the sky up above,
And think, "What am I made of?"

Am I full of sorrow? Am I hurt, and pained?
Or am I filled...with love?

I walk by myself, on the streets below
And ask every child I know,

"Do you think tomorrrow will bring sun or rain?
Which one of these will show?"

I can't say good-bye to yesterday, my friend.
I'll keep holding on, 'til the end

Out of the darkness, there is no other way
Than the light leading to yesterday...

It's there that I'll find
In a peace not warm,

And dreams that I let slip away...

I'llfind the joyfulness
I'm looking for

Way back in yesterday...

Why can't each of us in the world ever see,
The best things in life, are free?

Little sounds of laughter, or one hug, a smile...

A kiss from you to me...

I fall to my knees,
I cry and I cry

Love, do not pass me by
Happily ever after, please stay for a while

Make time refuse to fly...
I can't say good-bye to yesterday, my friend,

'Cause I know how good it has been...

Face it forever, here I stand, come what may
In the old in the new, yesterday...

It's there that I'll find, in a peace not warm
And dreams that I let slip away...

I'll find the joyfulness I'm looking for

Way back in yesterday...

"Through speech, music, literature and movies...

What we've seen, heard, felt...

Anger, joy, and sorrow.

These are the things I will pass on. That's what I live for.
