A hero's suffering

[herodrawing]

Hey guys! Check this out...

[Izuru is running forward to show something when suddenly!]


Agghhhh!

[He clutches his chest and collapses on the floor!]

[Some time later...]


I don't know why. I barely used Red Five....

[He's in the medical ward bed again. Conscious and without any split personalities taking over. That's good, right?]

Okay, just a little, but that was to help everyone fight that Balmarian thing. That's not bad, right?

Red Five... at this rate, I won't be able to...

[Also, Izuru's AHSMB is under double the amount of locks right now. The unit is restrained from ever being used again, electronically AND physically.]

[Other people take their sweet time getting around to visiting, but they do visit.]

Hey, are you alright?

I heard you collapsed, did something happen?

[herodrawing]

The nurse said I'm fine, I'll be okay. Don't worry!

And yeah, I piloted Red Five. I wasn't supposed to... Captain Suzukaze already told me off for that.

[a_monetized_mind]

...Ah, back on that island...

This sort of thing, it's happened before?

[herodrawing]

Yeah. It's not the first time, or even the second either.

It's something about genetics. Red Five has my DNA so... it acts up.

[a_monetized_mind]

Well...Don't push yourself too hard. I'm glad you saved my life, but it'd defeat the purpose if you died in the process, you know?

[herodrawing]

That's true, but it's Red Five that allowed me to do that. So overall I think it was worth it.

But don't worry! I am not going to use my AHSMB unless the situation is really, really serious.

[Or at all, it seems like.]

[a_monetized_mind]

You better not. Or I'll find your ghost and put it in a headlock, got it?

[herodrawing]

Yes, yes! I have no intention of dying, you know... I have a feeling JURIA System wouldn't let me anyway...
