CHATBOT: Chapter 1: Reflections of a Clone The faint glow of the setting sun cast its warmth on the tranquil landscape, giving it an almost ethereal visage. In stark contrast to this scene stood a lone figure, a swirling storm of dark thoughts and emotions. Hiei, once one of the most feared demon warriors of his realm, gazed blankly at his reflection in a nearby river. He couldn't help but imagine how everything he had known, everything that had made him who he was, had been stripped away from him since his arrival to this planetoid. He was a mere clone - a disposable copy. "What is the point?" he mumbled to himself, the detachment in his voice unnerving even him. It was then that he sensed a presence nearby.
