Punch stared at the ground for a long while.Can't be you? David, that is you. You have a life outside of this. WE have a life outside of this! We both came here to get stronger!" Rory shouted, "We both came here... To protect something outside of all this training. All this carnage... You can't reject that." Rory said, beginning to tremble as memories swirled within her mind, her yellow eyes flashing between crimson and red, her form seeming to wane.
"And I'm... Not... Rory the 7th...? I'm not... My name is... My name is Rory the 6th...! I have a wife! A-And a son, and a daughter!-" She gripped her head, her hair turning from its previous icy yellow back to a silver-white at a slow pace.
"This...! Isn't my body...! I'm not Rory the 7th!! I don't want to be like her! IM NOT HER!! My name is Rory the 6th, and you're name is David!!" She shouted
"....My name is David..." David said. his tone resigned.
"...but that doesn't mean I'm him. I'm...not the same person I was back then..." David said, standing to his feet. He glanced at his body, realizing just how much he had altered it, during his time in the dimension. His legs had become long and muscular, his hair, wild and wavy. His nails on both his hands and feet had extended significantly, resembling more like claws than anything else. He was over 9 feet tall, looking more akin to some kind of humanoid monster than any kind of human he'd seen. His skin had become permanently tanned to a brown color.
"I am David. I have a beautiful wife. I have allies, comrades in arms."
"...You're right. I need to acknowledge my past....but I don't need to repeat it."
"......And you're...Rory the 6th. It was....wrong of me, to ever compare you to the 7th."
(This might be a better image for the guy, idk)
