11->'''[[PersonOfMassDestruction Accelerator]]:''' I don't understand ya...that [[TheHero fallen lowlife over there]] and you...why are you covering for a bunch of dolls? They're failed mass production knock offs of you. The one who should feel most annoyed about that in the whole world is you. You dislike seeing something with the same face as you being broken? That's not something to lose your life over. You can't stand the fact that [[PowerLevels someone else will reach level 6 before you]]? [[TheAtoner Or is this atonement for creating the origin of these experiments]]?\

32[[AC:Fan Works]]
33->Shirakumo Oboro emerges from the mist like a man back from the grave, and he walks with the same menacing elegance as a ghostly tiger. His hands are clenched into tight fists at his sides, and for the first time since Arashi has seen him, he doesn't see any hint of an emotion in the older man's gaze. Instead, his lips are tight and pursed and his slanted blue eyes glower at the three villains with a kind of menace only a villain can wear. Or, more accurately to say, a very pissed off big brother.\
34"Twice, Toga, Mr. Compress." Even though his voice is flat, his tone is sharp and cool like a knife pressing against their throats. Dr. Hikigaeru and Arashi stare at the unfamiliar man in shock, meanwhile the villains gape at him as if suddenly realizing their mistake. "Mind telling me what you're doing with my little brother?"

Jake and Rachel would be fine. They had to be.

45-> ''"It's Dean and Sam. It's Oliver and Thea. It's Laurel and Sara. Always and forever. Laurel - much like Dean and Oliver - has made terrible, selfish, impossible choices for her sister. She was willing to destroy, to upend her life, ruin friendships, risk her own soul, just to bring Sara home. She has stripped herself apart to give this girl life, and there has never been one single second where she regretted that.When half of your heart is walking around outside of your body, stuffed into some reckless child who wants to fight the world to save it, you do what you have to do. You keep it beating. When you are an older sibling, you are given a responsibility. You are shown a life that matters so much more than yours. You keep that kid safe. It doesn't matter what you lose in the process or how many things you have to take apart to keep something else together. All that matters is that you do your job."''

48->"Please, I don't have time for this right now... my little sister, she's..." He began. In his mind, it was only natural that she would let him past if she understood the situation. He himself had let Chrono past him without a fight when Fate had gotten hurt, hadn't he? It was a big bro's job to protect his baby sister whenever and wherever she needed him. Stopping him from doing that job was just ''wrong''; while he had his doubts as to the morality of some of the actions he'd found himself and his siblings taking recently, that much he knew for sure. Some things were just ''evil''.
49-->--''Fanfic/{{Infinity}}''
50
51->''Why I felt the need to hide this from Sweetie when I had just extolled her responsible nature eluded me. Perhaps it simply stemmed from my desire to protect her.''

54-> They both heard the sickening noise of the metal club hitting her left side. The turtle watched in horror as the girl let out something between a gasp and a cry, and landed, hard, in a puddle a few feet away.
55-> “Spider-Ninja? Wait, you’re a ''kid?''” Hockey Mask Guy muttered, sounding horrified as he looked at the injured teen.
56-> Raph didn’t bother to respond. At that moment, he snapped. All he saw was red.
57-> “DON’T TOUCH MY SISTER!” He roared before reverse punching the guy in the face, cracking the hockey mask. He ripped the guy's weapons from his hands, then ripped off the sports bag and threw it aside. Then he physically picked up Hockey Mask Guy and threw him.

67->''"Listen, I know EXACTLY who you are. Hans Grubhund wanted for terrorism, smuggling, extortion among other crimes. Now I don’t know what you’re looking to get out of this. But you made a very, VERY, big mistake; do you want to know what that mistake is? You thought that you could pull this stunt in MY, city, while Judy Hopps is on the job.
