Sentinel
Chapter 1: Depth of Silence

This feeling...








When all hope has been lost...







That's when the silence overtakes your soul...






This feeling...






When you don't care who has died by your hands






When you can no longer wash the stains of blood from your hands.....





That's when the silence cast it's shadow on my soul..........





My name is Shizo. I am older than you could ever care to know. I have seen things you would never think possible. I have traveled to worlds you never knew existed. I have been trapped in the body of my youth for as long as I care to remember.

I come here for my own reasons. Earth seemed so much like my own planet before it was consumed by hate. That's why I left. It's a long story, how I got started, but I might as well get it over with. When I was 17, my planet was consumed by war. I was sent to fight in the front lines where I learned the only valuable lessons in my life. It wasn't until I was gutted that I changed my view on things. I knew the war was terrible, yet I had to fight. I wanted to die, but when I was finally torn, I fought to stay alive.

I cannot explain exactly what happened. I don't even remember it completely. I just remember my comrades leaving, running to save their own lives. All except for one. He started asking me something. I could not understand. Everything was a blur to me. I felt nothing. I saw only his blurred face, pleading. he tried to keep my insides from tumbling out, but it was a little late for that. Organs I didn't even know I had seemed to be smeared across the ground. Things became fogy, and just as I started to black out, I was nearly blinded by a huge explosion. Some acrid scent filled my nostrils, and thrown back into consciousness. I still lay on the ground, covered in blood. The soldier who had been trying to save be now lay several feet away from me. I knew he was no longer among the living, judging by the way his body was twisted in some obscure manner. Humans do not bend that way.

I don't know how it happened. All that was left from my massive wound was an equally massive scar. I went on fighting that day. I wondered that I was still alive. I would not understand what had happened for a long time. Not until I discovered the symbols on my back, written in the language of the ancients. I found I had become an immortal, after I was gutted once again. A few minutes afterwards I was good as new. It hurt like hell, though.

After the war had settled down a bit, I got the symbols on my back deciphered. It was a prophecy, something about the ultimate power being hidden on a twin planet. It said I would Be forever bound to the protection of this ultimate power. My curse was immortality. I left my home planet, just before it was completely destroyed, in search of the item I was bound to protect.

I passed through many planets before coming to Earth. And it is here that I found the ultimate power. This is where the legend begins.







Passing through halls of familiarity




She walks




She does not know what fate has chosen for her






She does not know that her life will soon change....




Only the sentinel who watches over her knows what is to come....




But even she is unsure of the future........
