            Everyone thinks I’m so pure. It’s so funny. I’m not pure, and I’m not innocent, but it makes things fun when they think so. Misty’s crush on me is totally obvious, but I don’t have to reciprocate, oh no, not when I play a dense little trainer with chocolate stars for eyes, and no one has to know who I really am.

            I’m not pure. I was never pure, except perhaps a thousand lives ago when I didn’t know anything. I hate duty and I hate fate and I hate falling in love, but that’s the least of the evils considering everything else I’ve lived through.

            I’m sick of this. I hate this farce, this dance we’ve woven. We eat the wrath of the pokémon and are born from the rage of all, and we dance on broken strings, as the legendary’s toys.

            But if we weren’t special, if we weren’t Chosen… we would have nothing, and I would never have Lance…

            I suppose it’s worth it for this sake, so I don’t stop. We don’t stop. We’ll continue to feast on the blood of the fallen and cry tears of despair, but we can’t – we won’t stop.

            It’s all right. We’ll be worm’s food someday anyways, right?
