Hattori sat next to her. "I've got something that I need to tell you, Minato."
Hattori walked out to the garden and sighed.
Hattori slowly stood up. "I guess I better go tell her what I've been hiding from her all along. I'd rather her know the truth now than wait till she's on her deathbed."
"Which will probably come rushing back to her when she dies."
Hattori sighed again. "So she will become death, while I will continue living for god knows how long."
"You'll have to remind me. I never read my father's notes."
"Death seems to be the only constant in this world."
Hattori sighed. He didn't want Minato to know the truth, but knew he had to tell her at some point.
"I couldn't begin to understand everything you've been through."
"You and I are similar in a way. Me being half-persona, I have a much longer lifespan than Minato and my children combined. My life may not be in an eternal cycle, but I know I'll still have to watch them pass on, while I still live on. I've never told Minato any of this, and I really don't want to accept this awful truth, but I'll have to one day."
"I see....." Hattori said before going deep into thought.
"So rather than ending the eternal cycle, you'd risk everything you know and love being destroyed by Orphan."
"What words would that be?"
"So this thing is hunting you and anyone that you've come in contact with?"
"What's this Orphan you're talking about?"
Hattori covered his ears.
"At least you didn't have to see your sister murdered before your very eyes." Hattori said.
Hattori looked at the table and saw the writing. "Why are you rejecting your past, Cara?" Shin finished the plans and passionately kissed Arisa.
Shin sat down and began to plan the wedding. "Did something just walk past you?" Hattori asked.
Shin got dressed and walked with Arisa to the main hall. "I remember you telling me that one time, Minato." Hattori said.
