[His eyes lower for a moment, but he doesn't turn and glance at Sakyou at all. He's focused forward ahead of them, still walking.]
Yeah. There was always darkness in my heart. I didn't understand why. Why... could Sora, or Kairi...? Why didn't they seem to have any? When everyone tells you darkness is bad, or wrong. I said I wasn't afraid, but... I was. Later. When I realized how easy it was for the darkness to control me.
I wanted to protect Kairi. We had made that promise. But... I wasn't strong enough. Of course not. Sora was the one protecting Kairi's heart all along, keeping it inside him. All I had in my heart was Ansem... and darkness.
Even after getting control of my body back... Ansem was still there. No matter how high I climbed in the castle, he was always whispering in my heart, trying to get me to give into the darkness. Trying to get me to give him control again.
