4 has been in anguish for the last little while on the subject of whether or not she should tell the story of 6. I hear her arguing with herself and almost tearing her hair out most of the time.
6 isn't dead as any one following this would know, but she's worried his story will never be told otherwise. See... He's not likely to tell it himself. I'm not sure if she'll thank me or hate me, but I've decided to end her indecision for her.
I'm going to tell you about 6. He's a large built man. Ex-soldier as I understand it. Really really likes knives. He's not a blood thirsty man though. He doesn't like killing. He became a soldier because he thought he would be able to defend peace. He didn't want to kill anyone, but he was a fan of the concept of a small sacrifice for a greater reward or as fans of Star Trek might call it, "The Needs of The Many" he was willing to suffer the anguish of taking lives and do the aforementioned taking of said lives in the belief that the end result would be less suffering overall. He kept this outlook for quite some time before the reality of it all finally got through to him.
It was all a cycle. Everyone he hurt meant nothing. every war he fought simply made way for another war and more suffering. He decided he didn't want to do it anymore and simply left...
Now if you're familiar with the way the army works... Simply leaving isn't allowed and is in fact pretty illegal. I'm fairly sure that they don't execute people for desertion anymore, but I could be wrong. Regardless people tracked him down and that's when The Quiet acted. It protected him and sent Zero to find him. He was brought to us then and became six. Now he could bring a proper unending peace to the world.
Happy 4?
Oh as for why he'd be unlikely to tell the story himself. He doesn't think he deserves to be remembered. He hates himself for all the things he did while he still believed he was fighting for peace and believes that him ceasing to existence without anyone ever remembering he existed at all is best for everyone.
Huh... Whether 4 is happy or not I imagine 6 will probably not be very happy about this.
