Lance Korilum:
"You showed me that it can bring forth the future... I want to know... Can it call upon the past as well?" Cero had to know. If Stride could call upon the past, that means he could use it to return his Avatar to him.
Hope:
"Yes... Stride brings forth heroes from both past and future... "Interdimensional Crosstalk," they called it.. Heh well I just called it one of the Rifts features. My discovery was that stride came from the subconcious,. My ideal and mission, well... what it was formed into the Messiahs and I gained their power. Blonde Ezel reached the evolution of Mithril Ezel through the world's collective subconcious and ways of Vanguard. Taking your way of Vanguard into account, stride takes a great deal of power. Do you alone think that you can go beyond who you are now and reach it?" She knew what he wanted to call forth from the past. Neu stayed silent for a moment, trying to find the words that she could use to proceed.
"Even if you do... Stride is largely unstable, depending largely on matching the wavelength of the summoned as well as the sunmoner. Let me ask again. With you strength at the time that you lost Vermillion, do you think that your power and synchronization was enough to tap into the power of stride? As you are now, do you think that you are strong enough? Answer this wisely with the Vanguard that you showed me. Even if you were to return Vermillion, he would only last for a moment."
Lance Korilum:
"... I know I can go beyond who I am now. I believe I can reach a level where I can tap into Stride alone. I have to, so that I can atone for taking Vermillion away from the world. At the time I lost Vermillion, I was the at the strongest I've ever been and Vermillion is the unit I am most synchronized with. As I am now... I lack the power to Stride... But I will reach it. I promised Vermillion, and now I promise you. Even if it is just for a moment, I have to bring him back with my power alone, or I'll never be able to forgive myself." This was Cero's answer. No longer was the strength he seeked only for the purpose of becoming the best, it was now to return his 'friend' to the world. Perhaps a desire beyond strength itself would push Cero to go beyond any strength that had previously existed.
Hope:
"Stride is like a pact. Really, something that is way too form for friends to do. I myself am not sure about the extent of power that bonds can reach as I've only discovered it recently. Did you ever think of fighting as friends, hand in hand as in... You aren't fighting alone for Vermillion, but you two fight for each others sake, having each other's back. If you think that you failed your avatar, did you ever think about how your avatar felt? I'm sure that Vermillion felt the same towards you as well, that he failed you. Such understanding is synchrnoization, a power within the subconcious where you know that your avatar's strength resonates with yours. Even though he may be gone, try to keep on fighting with Vermillion, not for him. If you believe that he is truly strong, I doubt that Vermillion would need a weakling like you to treat him like a damsel in distress...That's just shameful..." Neu let out a weak laugh, "seek for your avatar... so that when I recover I could fight him again... I look forward to it."
Lance Korilum:
Cero smirked at Neu's humor. "I see. Then I will fight with Vermillion, and one day I will bring him back to this world. We'll face you again, Neu. That's my promise to you." With this promise, Cero left Neu to recover in her hospital bed. His drive renewed and his question answered, he was ready to search for the power to Stride.
