It was those thoughts that kept Thomas Arclight going, intent on seeing things through for his brother’s sake. He wouldn’t falter as Chris had done; of that much he would make certain.
He had alliances that contained both people he knew and trusted – such as his father and Ryoga – as well as some others he had met since arriving here. Numbers were on his side. The scarred duelist paced the room, back and forth… mind alternating between thoughts of his brother and of what to do at this very moment.
So close… So close…
“I don’t want you to do anything rash,” his father urged. “I know it’s tempting, but being reckless would – “
“ – You really think I’d be that stupid?” Thomas snapped back. At the words ‘rash’ and ‘reckless,’ old memories of the World Duel Carnival were brought back to the surface of his thoughts, a painful reminisce of the lack of trust Byron placed in his middle son. Things were different now, Thomas knew, but he was on edge. “You wouldn’t be telling Chris that, and look who was the one who most needed to hear it.”
A pause.
“…That is irrelevant right now,” the blonde finally replied, much quieter than before. “I just don’t want to lose you as well…”
Thomas held back a retort, realizing that he’d gone a bit far. Still… sitting idle didn’t appeal to him. Not at this stage.
He waited until later, after everyone had gone to sleep.
Either he would finally put an end to all this, and avenge Mihael… or he would soon join him. Though he would put up a good fight regardless, the more he thought about it, the less horrible the latter seemed.
His confrontation with one of the other remaining duelists ended in a defeat, despite the close match. He faded away in a mixture of anger – both at himself and the enemy – sadness, and oddly enough, a sense of relief. The brothers were once more reunited.
When Byron woke up, he was completely alone.
Laterose, you are...
IV / Thomas Arclight - Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL
The middle child of the Arclight family, and the champion of the Asia branch of the National Duel Circuit. You are a sadistic duelist who toys with your opponents, prolonging their defeat. Though it was thought that you had been responsible for the critical condition of Rio, in all actuality, you had saved her upon realizing the horror of Tron’s plan. Still, you are easily the most reckless of the Arclight brothers, and are the one who most seeks Tron’s approval, wishing him to return to his original self. You duel using a Gimmick Puppet deck.
Your Gimmick Puppets evoke imagery of death, and similarly, you have the power to absorb the ability of a fallen player. Once in the game, you can send a PM with the title “Absorb – USER” to gain that player’s ability. The specified player must be dead in order for this to take effect.
You are a doctor. Every night phase, you can protect a player from being night-killed, including yourself. Send a PM with the title “Night X Protect – USER” during the night phase.
Any votes you cast toward a member of the Arclight family (regardless of alignment) will not count.
You are allied with TOWN. You win when all mafia members have been eliminated.
Good luck, and have fun!
Laterose was night-killed. She was IV/Thomas Arclight, allied with TOWN.
It is now DAY 8. This phase will end on November 17th, at 10:00 PM EST. You may now vote.
... I don't want to live in a world without my sons.
When this is all over, I'll stay in this world and kill myself to join them.
EDIT: @Midorikawa; talk about pointless. Elysion hasn't answered any of my questions and DNAG has a justifiable reason. It's OBVIOUS now that somebody who was in the D Alliance is part of the Mafia. DrumBeats, out of ALL PLAYERS, was targeted to die remember?
...Mafia, how could you. How. Could. You. ;_; It's one thing to kill my precious angel. But...t-to kill his nii-sama...to kill Tron's last living family, the only person left that he cared about, the only person left who he could truly care for...! I...just... ;_;
...
I don't have any words for this. ;_; But... you can do it, town. I believe in you guys. <3 Avenge me and Thomas nii-sama, okay...?
I didn't know if you guys would believe me if I nameclaimed as Dartz. Its a bit too late now, but yeah, my mistake. I never watched much of the Atlantis Arc, but I knew Dartz was evil - I mean, I didn't know if you guys would believe me if I said I was Dartz and a member of the town. Even if in this mafia, chararacters have nothing to do with their alignment - I mean its Dartz...

BUT IT'S DARTZ YOU GUYS
EVEN THOUGH I KNOW THAT IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO MY CHARACTER IS I STILL DO FOR NO GOOD REASON
You didn't tell me you were Dartz, a DM character, when I was puzzled about AlphaMouse.

Cause I already lied about being another character?
I honestly haven't watched that far into Zexal - I just started the World Duel Carnival arc, and just got introduced to Tron for like what - I don't think even a minute. I didn't even know he was evil until you mentioned it.
