Prologue
Everyone moves toward the same destiny. Isn't that funny. No matter
who we are, where we go, what we do, we can't escape our destiny. Sure
many people say that they don't believe in destiny, but that doesn't
really matter. We are all moving toward the same destiny. No, what is
important is the journey to our destiny.
The journey can take many paths. It can bend, twist, turn,
fold, and loop around, but the destination is the same. We struggle to
get the most out of our journey toward destiny. Some people do great
things. Other people live out an ordinary life where there is no
excitement. Then again, I suppose that excitement is based on
everyone's own perception. I recall being excited for a birthday a
long time ago. I was extremely sick, but my grandmother came to see me
anyway. That's a memory etched into my heart. But its not very
thrilling is it.
A few hours ago (at least I think it was a few hours) my journey
took a little turn. No make that a big drop. Or maybe a big climb.
I'm not sure yet. I was out for a walk, it was a beautiful evening, and
was crossing The Oval. The Oval is this really nice stretch of grass in
front of the Main Library at Ohio State University. Its maybe ¼ mile
long, maybe a bit longer. Anyway, I was out for a nice walk when I saw
a shooting star. Not being suppositious, but wanting to grab a small
piece of my childhood back, I made a wish. It was a silly wish, but
then most wishes are. I wished for some true excitement in my life,
like in the fanfics that I write.
Well maybe some wandering Kami passed me as I made that wish and
decided to grant it. Maybe I was in the wrong place at the wrong time,
or the right place at the right time. I don't know yet. Or maybe I was
walking over some giant nexus of lay-lines like I read in a fanfic
awhile back and the small power of my wish activated it. Who knows. I
sure don't.
But I changed. I can feel it even if I can't see. New thoughts
keep entering my head. Thoughts that I wouldn't have had before. Some
of them are dark, as dark as the void I'm floating in. At least I
assume I'm floating, I don't feel any pressure on my body besides my
clothes. Anyway, as I was saying, some of these new thoughts are dark.
They're talking of death and killing and of how to kill as easily as I
breath. The other is also talking of death, but not how to cause it.
It's telling me how many loved ones that it has lost, and how it doesn't
want to lose anymore. It's begging me to protect all those I care for,
and its telling me how. It's strange, you know. Both sets of thoughts
want me to protect people, it's just that they both want me to use a
different method. But then, neither is trying to discredit the other.
They seem to accept each other, and want to work together so that I'm
better than each of them individually.
Say, what's that over there? A light. It's a light. I'm
finally at the end of this void. I guess its time to see what this
twist in my journey is going to bring me. Me? Who am I? I...I can't
remember. I know my name at least. But my past, the places where my
journey has already been is... it's gone. No, its mixed up. My name is
Tomas, but who was I. Was I an assassin, or was a just a street
fighter? A college student? I remember mentioning a college a while
ago. Was I a student there, or just passing through. I can't recall.
The light I'm almost to it. I guess my past can wait for now.
I need to know where I am before I can figure out where I came from. I
don't have to worry about where I'm going though. Everyone is always
heading toward the same destiny. But what is that destiny again? Oh
yes, now I remember, it's death.
Author's Notes:
A while back I threatened to write a true SI to show the difference
between my other fics and what I feel an SI is. So here you go, the
start of my True SI. Unless I get a big response to this, or really get
in the mood, don't expect me to write more of this soon.
