The All-Powerful Omni-Saiyan In RWBY

Chapter 44:A Rescue Like No Other

Yamoshi: ...Perhaps not... And that's something you'll have to live with for the rest of your life.

Saiyan King: (Suddenly scoffs and crosses his arms) I Can Live With That. After All, There Were Many That I Killed That Deserved It.

Yamoshi: And many more who didn't deserve it... (He thinks back to his King's past) ...It's funny how everyone seems to notice your mistakes, but never notice the pain you hide within. No one seems to see when others place harm upon you, only when you retaliate are you placed in the wrong. It is a cruel Universe we live in...

Saiyan King: ...Tell Me...Was What I Did Truly Wrong In Your Eyes?

Yamoshi: (He thinks carefully for a moment) ...Your feelings against those who wronged you are justified... What happened to you was wrong, plain and simple... You had every right to be upset... To be angry at the world... Nevertheless, you allowed your once justified anger to consume you... And slaughtered those who did no harm to you... You may feel no regret or remorse now... But, in time... You will...

Saiyan King: ...Gods...Humans... I Don't Think My Hate For Them Will Ever Fade... Not After What They Did To Me...To Lucy... They Are Cruel, I Simply Became Worse To Match Their Hate... "Humanity" And Their Creators...Are Just As Evil And Ruthless As I Am... You May Not Know This, But That Is The Truth.

Yamoshi: ...Your perspective on reality may not be wrong... But, that does not mean you're the only one who might have some insight on the truth... You have witnessed the worst side of humanity and it's harsh world yourself... Yet you also had someone show you the greatest qualities on what it means to truly be human... Your friend, Lucy...Was the perfect example of that special trait we call "humanity". But your pain and anger overwhelmed the good that you saw in her.

Saiyan King: (His words resonate within him) ...Lucy...She Died...Because Of Me... I Blame The Gods And Humans For What Happened To Her... But, I Will Forever Condemn Myself For Her Actions, For If It Was Not For Me... She Would Never Have Sacrificed Her Life In My Stead.

Yamoshi: (Steps up) Then do not allow her sacrifice to be in vain! You have a right to live, just like everyone else! But, you cannot fill that empty desire in your heart by taking the lives of others. You yourself know that, yet are too stubborn to admit it... Lucy gave her life, so you could live yours... Don't waste it on a vendetta that will lead you astray and ultimately destroy your only chance for a better life... Please, Y(N)... For once... Consider my words.

His words were difficult to hear and even more so to accept...However, he spoke the truth and the Past Y(N) knew it... He was more calm now, thanks to Yamoshi's melody and his first try at meditating... Yet there was still much doubt within him, more than he realized. He had grown comfortable to his current lifestyle, he wasn't willing to part with it so easily... But, Yamoshi's past words came back to him... Perhaps he should follow his advice for just a few years... Afterall, he did have all the time in the world...

Saiyan King: (Thinks very carefully about his decision) ....

Yamoshi: (Notices that he is lost deep in thought) ...If you are at least thinking over my proposal, then I'm satisfied... Anyway, I think it's about time I go home. Mom and Lucille are probably worried out of their minds by now. Plus, I did promise to help the kids in their academic lessons from time to time. (He turns back to the King who sat down on the small steps) Will you be alright by yourself?

Saiyan King: Hmm, I Believe So... I Will Need Some Time Alone To Think Either Way.

Yamoshi: Fair enough... I still can't believe you can actually think about something other than fighting and food.
