"Torture," He added, not admitting that he saw that. "Burning...people. Hanging them, tearing them limb from limb..." At this point his voice was barely anything about a hushed mumble, his eyes watering at the memories. "I..." He couldn't finish. |

Arabella quickly rushed over an hugged Maxwell. "War is a terrible thing..." she said softly. |

"You don't know the half of it," He said softly. "But thank you, I...needed that." He added, almost hugging her back, but he couldn't do it. |

"You're welcome." she said, her voice like velvet once more, letting go of him. |

Maxwell nodded, he wiped his eyes, somewhat embarrassed by the whole affair. |

"True," He agreed, yet in his mind he was asking himself if love was added to that list. |

"Every decision in life is a fifty fifty chance, some for the better and others not so much. But the point is that they are all mile markers in our life. Slowly shaping us into a better person as we go along." |

"Or a worse one," He replied quietly, not really contridicting her statement, he just felt a forbodying grow inside him. |

Arabella sat in silence. Finally something coming to mind. "I don't believe it can make you worse..." she said softly. "You're not a bad person..." |

"But I was," He said, his voice sliding back into a darker tone. "And that doesn't change anything..." He stopped, his eyes flickering from her face then to the ground. "Inside, I'm still the same...it's just...better hidden." His voice broke, his eyes not leaving the ground. |

"Are you sure?" He asked her, not looking up, but his voice betrayed a hint of hope. "How do you know?" |

"Maxwell, I have been alive for over 168 years. And 150 of those years I have been here, and spent my time watching people. And I have gotten to know you. You are not a bad man, you truly care. I can see it in your eyes, and in your voice. The hope for a better life, and how you care for the others around you here. How you care for Gwen. You are different, and that is why your past tortures you so. If you had not changed, it would not bother you...but it does. You have changed, and what you are afraid of is reverting back to your old ways. But I know you won't...you can't...you care too much. And that is good." |

Maxwell nodded, silently thinking over what she was saying. "I...see." He said softly, he knew it the whole time, staring him in the face, and what she said well...said it all. "You're so right." He said plainly. |
