"Raiden, if I ever go to the dark side... Please protect me...",Mayu said and left."Are you hinting at something Mayu?"Raiden watched Mayu's retreating figure, her words echoing in his mind. He pondered her question, understanding the weight behind her words. Deep down, he knew that Mayu's request wasn't simply a passing remark.

With a mix of concern and determination, Raiden called out to Mayu, his voice laced with sincerity. "Mayu, wait!"

Mayu paused and turned to face him, curiosity and a touch of vulnerability in her eyes. "Raiden, what is it?"

Raiden took a step closer, his gaze unwavering. "Mayu, your words... they struck a chord within me. You've shown me that there's more to life than the pursuit of power and darkness. You've taught me the value of friendship, compassion, and the strength that comes from doing what is right."

He paused for a moment, gathering his thoughts before continuing. "If the day ever comes where you find yourself in the throes of darkness, know that I will be there for you. I will do everything in my power to guide you back to the light, just as you have done for me."

Mayu's expression softened, a mixture of gratitude and understanding crossing her features. "Raiden, thank you. I appreciate your words, and I want you to know that our friendship means a great deal to me. Together, we can overcome any challenges that come our way."

Raiden nodded, a renewed sense of purpose coursing through him. "I believe in our ability to support and protect each other, Mayu. Let us continue our journey, side by side, as we navigate the complexities of this world. And if darkness ever threatens to consume us, we will find our way back to the light, together."

Raiden sought out Ren, his thoughts still consumed by Mayu's words. He found her in a quiet spot, away from the bustling crowds, and approached her with a mixture of concern and determination.

"Ren," Raiden began, his voice filled with sincerity. "Mayu said something to me earlier, and it has been weighing heavily on my mind. I feel that I should share it with you."

Ren looked up, her expression curious yet attentive. "What did she say, Raiden?"

Raiden took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts before continuing. "Mayu told me that if she ever succumbs to the dark side, she wants me to protect her. It was a heartfelt plea, and it left me pondering its meaning."

He paused, allowing the significance of Mayu's words to sink in. "Ren, I wanted to let you know because I believe it speaks to the depth of the challenges Mayu faces within herself. She acknowledges her own struggles and fears the path of darkness. I think it's a testament to the strength of our bond that she trusts me enough to make such a request."

Ren listened intently, her eyes reflecting a mixture of understanding and empathy. "Raiden, it seems Mayu is grappling with her own inner conflicts. Our journey has brought us face-to-face with both light and darkness, and it's natural for her to express such concerns. We must be there for her, to support and guide her when she needs it most."

Raiden nodded in agreement. "Indeed, Ren. Mayu has shown us glimpses of her true self, a complex blend of strength and vulnerability. As her friends, we have a responsibility to be there for her, to help her navigate the challenges she may face. Together, we can be the guiding light that leads her back to the path of righteousness."

Ren reached out, placing a comforting hand on Raiden's shoulder. "I appreciate you sharing this with me, Raiden. It's a testament to the trust and bond we've formed as a team. Let us continue to support Mayu and be the pillars of strength she needs, especially in times of darkness."

Raiden nodded, a renewed sense of purpose filling his heart. "Agreed, Ren. Together, we will stand by Mayu's side, offering our unwavering support and protection. We will be the guardians of her light, even in her darkest moments."
