"Now that I'm staring down at the darkest abyss, I'm not sure what I want, but I don't think It's this."
He never liked the topic of death. He tried to avoid killing whenever he could and he got a sick feeling whenever he couldn't. He couldn't tell you when this fear set in, but he would tell you that it wasn't a weakness. After all, if he liked killing, then he'd kill more; and if he killed more, then people would end up alone. He didn't like being alone, so why should he make anyone else be alone?
"As my comrades call to stand fast and forge on, I make sail for the dawn til the darkness has gone."
There was a war. He didn't mean to start it, honest! But the one time he was entrusted with firing a canon- it just had to go off mark! Everyone told him it wasn't his fault, but he couldn't help but think otherwise.
"As the souls of the dead live for'ere in my mind, and I live all the years that they left me behind, I'll lay on the shore but still gaze at the sea."
He didn't see all of their deaths, but he could feel whenever one of them died. It was like a piece of him had been ripped out and crushed! When his very last crewmate died, though, his mind broke.
"I remember the fallen and they think of me, when our souls in the ocean together will be."
He and the survivors from this one way massacure found what seemed to be an impossible solution. They had been cornered and had all but accepted that they were going to die, but a single object changed all of that.
"I remember the fallen and they think of me,"
They'd get to see all of their friends and family again! Everyone who had died would all be there again! This time, the group of seven vowed, they would prevent the war from starting. And if it did, then they'd make sure they won.
"when our souls in the ocean together will be."
"Forget it!" were the first words he heard upon waking, "Get my sword!"

"It's not like I didn't want to be the monster; it's just because the game itself seemed incredibly one-sided and unfair. Heroes and monsters is just a game based on kids' TV shows. Everyone's free to choose what role they play. But me . . . . . I was friendless, always with a dark cloud above. Everyone knew who the hero was going to be. I didn't stand a chance in hell. naturally, there was no scenario where the monster would ever win. I was always a loser! The popular kid always beats up the little guy that no one likes. That's just the way the world works. Screw justice. . . And screw evil too. . . I'm going to be killed simply because that's what everyone else wants? I can't stand it! It pisses me off! I'm going to make them understand one way or the other.
I'm here to for underdogs everywhere.
Good?
Evil?
I REJECT THEM BOTH!"
This is my second story ever so please don't be harsh, if I randomly take a month of break then please just bear with me, my laziness hasl a hold on me that you could never understand. I love you.
