WO: I will not use your thoughts against you, Shadowmaru. I called you here because one dear to you will be arriving soon.

Maru: *starts to comment on the first, but the latter startles a reaction out of him*  What?  Who?

WO: Tomonaga Yuuta.

Kage: *soft gasp and looks at his brother*

Maru: *gaze goes /hollow/, his Super AI /sparking/ as hard as it did when he was forced to "kill" his own brother*  N-no . . . no! He's too young!  Why?  Can we /prevent/ it!?  If you know about it ahead of time… *DESPERATION in his tone – he's not even used to his /own/ death yet, and now she's telling him about Boss's!?*

WO: We cannot affect the physical world. I'm sorry, Shadowmaru. He will be in an automobile accident in tomorrow. There is nothing that can be done to prevent this.

Maru: */stands/ in anger, hands in /fists/* Then why are you telling me this!?

WO: So you can be there to meet him when he arrives.  I am sorry to give you this news, Shadowmaru, it brings me no joy.  I know you would rather know, and be there for him, than learn of his arrival after he’s been here for a while.
