SONG: A Soul Can’t Be Cut [INSTRUMENTAL] (Metal Gear Rising Revengeance) www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_019v…

Stepping into the fray, I tried to get the other soldiers to listen to me, but to no avail. They weren’t listening to anything I was saying and just recklessly rushing towards our target and enemies as if they wanted to get their flanks frozen! It’s as if they didn’t care about living anymore. I contacted Amp to see if he could give me any ideas. As always, he did. I had to multitask between talking to him and trying to keep my comrades from getting frozen and beaten down.

Amp Atom: Flash, what’s the matter?

Flash: They’re still not responding. It’s as if I’m talking to moving statues! Some of them are already getting frozen and the enemy’s not letting up!

Amp Atom: If they’re frozen, they’re still alive, but are in great danger! But just the fact that they got frozen that quickly means that their hearts are still cold to begin with.

Flash: But what can I do?! I’m trying to save them, but they’re resisting at every turn! I tried everything from being calm to yelling at them, but nothing’s working!

Amp Atom: Actions speak louder than words, Flash.

Flash: I’ve tried holding them off, but all they did was run past me or hit me to get away! They have no idea what they’re doing!

Amp Atom: They’ve been blinded by the dark and cold… and it seems that they have yet to recover… Flash, I don’t think there is any way to save them unless they get exposed to a little light!

Flash: Light? What do you mean?

Amp Atom: Let me tell you a little something, Flash. Before you and I first met, I had lost my faith in most of others. My brother and I were treated horribly in our early years, my father met a tragic death, and before I became a student of Princess Celestia’s nopony even gave a flying feather for what I had to say.

Flash: What about Sunset Shimmer?

Amp Atom: That was after the fact. She was the only one who had any appreciation for extended knowledge. But even then, she wasn’t too trusting of others, including me. And to be honest, I didn’t trust anypony that much either. But then you came along…

Flash: I remember. It was in the library back in Trottingham.

Amp Atom: Yes. That day, you not only saved me and showed me a kind of generosity that nopony other than the princess ever showed me, but you reignited something in my heart. It felt like a lightning bolt that came out of the sky and lit everything up around me, melting the ice that was in my heart!

Flash: Really… Huh… Well I’m glad I could help, Amp!

Amp Atom: *Mumbles under his breath* It’s because of that that I gave up on my initial aspirations of taking over the world with an iron hoof…

Flash: What was that, Amp?

Amp Atom: N-Nothing! What I’m getting at here is that perhaps that’s something you can do. The guards are lost in a blizzard both in the environment and in their minds. You have to get their attention and become that light!

Flash: Light… A lightning bolt, huh? It always seems to come back to lightning.

Amp Atom: Then you should already know what to do! This is where your specialty will come into play! Get their attention and see if you can get them to pull back. Force them if you have to!

Flash: Yeah! Time to light up this storm! Thanks, Amp!

Amp Atom: Good luck, Flash! *Signs off*
