"...A pity I couldn't stay up any longer."
Staring at the chains that were behind his arms and legs, the other Ren's face remained impassive.
While walking toward the distance, the rattling noise of the chains filled the darkness.
Clank. Clank. Clank.
The sound did not persist for long as his feet soon came to a pause.
An orb of white and black loomed before him in the dark space as he muttered.
"Not bad..."
As he extended his hand to touch the orb, a small gap appeared in the black threads surrounding the orb, allowing his hand to pass through briefly before he yanked out again.
A sizzling sound rang in the air as the other Ren gazed at his hand which had turned semi-transparent.
With his brows furrowed, he murmured.
"Almost."
"Almost what?"
A familiar voice suddenly echoed out, forcing Ren to turn his head abruptly.
His eyes were immediately drawn to a familiar figure.
"...Surprise?"
An ambiguous smile spread on the familiar figure's face as he stared at the white orb in the distance.
Pointing at it, he asked.
"So is this the secret that you've been keeping away from me?"
Calmly walking toward the white orb, Ren carefully inspected it as he walked around it.
Throughout the entire time, the other Ren didn't say anything as he just calmly observed him.
This persisted for a good minute before the other Ren eventually started to speak.
"...Did you plan this since the very beginning?"
The moment his words faded, Ren's feet came to a pause.
Turning his head to glance in his direction, Ren placed his hand underneath his chin.
"Planned?"
Caressing his chin, he thought for a moment before shaking his head.
"Not really. I was just testing something"
"Testing something?"
Carefully staring at Ren, the edges of the other Ren's lips curled a little.
