The masked figure in front of Hinata’s room turned to her as she walked out of the room. “Are you finished now Mrs. Hinata?” They asked.

She nodded.
"Yes. Thank you."

The masked figure nodded.
“As I’ve mentioned before, there’s another person who wants to see you. Please follow me” the masked figure started to walk deeper into the hallway.

Hinata followed behind.
"Who?"

The masked figure laughed slightly.
“You’ve probably never met him before…” the figure took a long pause and stopped walking, turning back to Hinata.
“His name is Clark West, he is Cassius’ teacher and a person who is interested about your abilities, mainly Apathy…”

"Oh, I see." Hinata sighed.

The masked figure turned to a white wooden door with the golden tag Knight Clark on it. They knocked on the door. A male in a mage robe opened the door.
“She’s here Mr. Clark” the masked figure stated as he gestured to Hinata.
“So, you must be Hinata Hayashi, correct?” Clark asked, wanting to make sure.

"Yes, I am." Hinata gave a small bow.

Tolkalee stared at Matthew for a moment before jumping into the room and looking around. He was moving towards Matthew while also looking around the room.

Jonathan lit up the candles in the room. The white flames from his body were bright enough that the whole room’s contents can be seen. Matthew was not dead but was messed up bad. His breathing was weak and he had a whole through throat and multiple cuts on his body. Blood covered most of his face but his streak of green on his hair stood out.

“Oh, that’s great. Please come in” Clark invited Hinata. “Also, thank you Lucas” he told the masked figure.
“I may return to my core now correct?” The masked figure asked.
“Of course!” Clark answered as the masked figure completely disappeared without a trace. “Please make yourself home” he told Hinata.

Hinata stepped in.
"I understand you're curious about my powers?"

Tolkalee stooped next to Matthew and checked his pulse. It was there but only faint. He began putting pressure on the wound at his throat. "Anyone know what this green streak is?"

Clark poured out some earl gray tea for Hinata. “Indeed I am. Cassius told me that you were quite a strong entity” he sat down and gave Hinata a cup.

“That’s when you know Matthew’s getting serious. The brighter the green is, the more serious he is” Cronos explained and saw that the streak was almost neon green.

Hinata gratefully accepted the tea.
"It's hard not to be, when you've been around as long as I have."

Clark sipped the tea from his cup and set the cup down on a coaster.
“I’ve been here since your parents were here so…that’s quite some time now. God I feel old…” he giggled slightly.

Hinata nodded.
"I know the feeling."

“So…” Clark started. “I was curious about one of your abilities and yes, I am aware that you have more than one. But I’m most curious about…Apathy? I think that’s what you call it…” he mentioned.

"Ah, yes, Apathy. Well, what would you like to know about it?" Hinata took a sip of her tea.

Clark giggled slightly. “I want to know about everything you can tell me without touching sensitive subjects. I’m genuinely interested”

Hinata's mouth twitched, going into a faint smile.
"Well, I'll start with how it works. Basically, it sends a jolt of energy to my brain, overwhelming my emotions. The energy blocks the emotions, and I'm able to function outside of my moral compass. However, a side effect is that I sometimes appear to be high."

Tolkalee looked at the shade of green. "Well, let's not waist time standing around. Aisen I need you to keep pressure on his throat. Not to much but enough to stop the blood flow. Cronos stand guard. Jonathan I can use your help to. I need you to take this cloth and hold it on this cut on his arm, it's kind of deep so I need to treat it next."

Clark had to smirk at what Hinata said.
“So basically, you’re then able to remove any prejudice and do whatever. Correct?”

The Knights in the room and Jonathan nodded. They all did what Tolkalee asked them to do without uttering a single word. They stayed like that, waiting for what Tolkalee will do.

Hinata nodded.
"It comes in handy sometimes."

Clark raised a brow.
“Fighting family members? Close allies who’ve betrayed you? Someone you look up to? People you thought were trustable?”

"All of the above, plus having to purposely ruin the fate of a dimension so my bosses can have me fix the fate of one they choose."

“Huh…makes sense” Clark added. “Mind if I ask you some questions? Don’t worry there aren’t about your abilities”
