A Look Into A Pitch III

Tears flow from his eyes as he kills, yet he shows no mercy. A newly recruited general Tobin of Sorrow. The second youngest general (the other generals appear to be in thier 20s), he appears to be 17 years old. Although the second youngest, Kin seems to act as an older sister to him. He wields the demon spear Croe, of all the demon weapons it is the only one with no element. However it is composed of a crystalized demon element known as tive, tive is a poisonous and corrosive element to demons and angels. In its crystal form it's harmless to humans, but it still burns the hands of any human possessed by a demon or angel. Tobin is the only one who can hold the spear without pain. New to the generals he is still trying to get used to his duties, but he also accomplishes them without fail.

The first rule in any fighting style: the strongest enemy is yourself. The only way to match a warrior of skill is to put him up against himself. Zaki Huang, a product of military and demonic research. She is Ryo's clone, genetically altered so that she can obtain the skills necessary to kill Ryo. Cloning has been perfected in the year 2018, people can now clone humans to an exact age (Zaki appears to be 17). In less than a month she became a skilled assassin. Her fighting style mirrors that of Ryo and she too can transform into a demon. In a sense when Zaki was created a demon clone of Selpha was created. When they fight Ryo defeats Zaki, unable to kill her because Ryo considers her as his sister Ryo takes her away to help her lead a normal life. Zaki is an interesting character in a sense I designed her character to be like what my mom wanted in a daughter. Sense shes always saying that she wanted a girl, but she got me and my two brothers (or Marc, Ryo and Colin in Demon Savior). Also sense she was born as a 17 year old, she has an innocence that no young woman has in the year 2018.

Innocence...

Take a look around your surroundings. What do you see? What I see is violence, hate, sex and drugs. This isn't even on T.V., I understand that yes there are drugs and what not everywhere (I'm not a naive idiot you know). I tell you the innocence of this world is lost. Innocence, its a word that we associate with children, not with young adults like me or the elderly. There are many things that can rob people of it: war, conflict and betrayal. I've experienced betrayal, thats why I've become the person I am now, somewhere deep inside me the innocent child that once dwelled is now on life support (being anime and video games).

When I go outside of my room to go to class I hear people swearing like no tomorrow. Worst part is that most of them are girls, if girls talk like this I'd have to say "I wouldn't want to kiss that mouth". Honestly what is this world coming to. Is there no one in this world where the thought of saying a bad word is bothered by it. It takes a lot (I mean a lot) to piss me off, but I don't shout obscenities when I get mad, thats primal response I'll live above that thank you.

Innocence is another one of my ideal traits for a significant other, she'd have a child-like charm to her that if we ever got into a fight I wouldn't stay mad at her for long. However with my generation and generations to come I am seriously scared. So with that people I leave you with this, take the time to think like a child for once, think before you speak, be nice to each other and most of all don't be hardened by the world.

Into The Great Unknown

I'll admit that I've been putting up too many filler posts (looks into a pitch III, that time capsule 2 post, combat files, etc.) I apologize for that ^^;;. I'd like to write about the one thing that has eluded man for many ages: a look into the future. As I walk around on campus I see many of my fellow classmates going off in different directions. Some carry sketch books, laptops and portfolios, of all these people I pass by one may become the next well known character designer for a cartoon series. The other may become the next Andy Warhol. Being a history major there are only two options for me: become a teacher or get into law. The possiblities are endless for all.

I guess what I'm getting at is people never knows what the future may hold. That jerk that picked on you in high school may become a janitor at the building you work at, or maybe your first boss. The future is a scary thing I know. Nobody can guess the future, not even those crazy gypsies at the fair can do it (sorry guys, but they just conned you out of a buck that you worked for). We must reach out and take a hold of that future that we want for ourselves, maybe we won't make a difference in the world, but thats okay, as long as we get up in the mornings and do our best the future may not be so scary at all.
