Jayden and Antonio || "I'm sorry..."

Or...

If Jayden stuck to his decision.

Antonio has always wanted to be a Samurai, to fight side by side with his friend. In a way, he gave his entire life to Jayden from the moment they met. But what if Ji had enough sway over his decision making that Jayden actually turned Antonio away?

How would it have effected the outcome of the show? This is the angsty version of events that I can imagine for the moment; Jayden turns Antonio away and Antonio continues to come over, but at what cost?

On one hand, Jayden feels regret at every turn, with every sleepover he and Antonio have and every plan they manage to make. He wants his friend to be a samurai as much as Antonio wants to be one.

On the other hand, it just makes Antonio feel worse to be around his friend on a different path than he'd imagined for both of them. So he tries again and again to help Jayden come around to the idea that maybe having an extra ranger wouldn't be awful.

And again and again, Antonio falls victim to a nighlok attack that only makes Jayden more certain that Antonio is getting hurt because of their friendship, and eventually it becomes overbearing and Jayden sends him off for good.

The video can be taken from either perspective, which was the goal, but leans much more heavily on Antonio's. They consider their past and live with what the present has to offer.
