Cory walked in and took a seat in the audience, staring blankly at the stage and the props and instruments on it. Aaron slipped in behind Cory and said,
"So this whole time, it was you."
Cory nodded, not turning around as he said,
"We all make mistakes, and sometimes more then once."
Aaron frowned as his eyes flickered in the low light of the amphitheater, they didn't speak for a bit, then Aaron spoke up, saying,
"But why me, why did you choose to bring me to Greece, then send me away from everyone." He was referring to Nicki, but he wouldn't state that out loud.
Cory murmered something and stood,
"You remember when Erebus captured you in the Underworld, right before you met me and Anabelle? Well, he wasn't happy that you stole his ring in the first place; but the fact that you beat him, stole the ring again, and still haven't gotten punished for it pissed him off."
Aaron grabbed Cory's shoulder as he started to walk away and he said angrily,
"But why did you go through with it, why did you lie about them recalling me?"
Cory turned finally, his eyes full of dread, and tears starting to form,
"Because I needed to, or I would've died. I did this for me, yeah, but you too. You being Roman and staying here wasn't good, you got more training done in 6 weeks then you would've in 6 months here."
Aaron started to raise his voice,
"You don't get it! I might not be Roman, I might not belong there! And now because of you...a lot that didn't need to be revealed has been, and there are more questions then answers. So thanks, thanks for that." Aaron let go of Cory's shoulder at that point.
Cory sighed,
"I'm sorry Aaron, I had no choice." He walked away without another word, leaving Aaron alone in the theater.
"So this whole time, it was you."
Cory nodded, not turning around as he said,
