Rewrite- 1: The Suffering
Perspective- Darkness the Hedgehog
Prologue
"IMPORTANT NEWS REPORT! A DEATH HAS OCCURRED DUE TO AN UNKNOWN DIEASE!" the speaker on a radio talk show announced. I sighed and ignored the radio.
"This is pathetic!" I groaned under clenched teeth, "How am I expected to protect the inhabitants of this planet if all they do is die like this?"
"THE DEATH OCCURRED IN THE SOUTHERN TUNDRA AND MANY INHABIATANTS HAVE CAUGHT THE DIEASE!"
"The tundra, eh?" I paused, "I should check by there sometime soon, perhaps later today. Anyway, I bet there's heavenly-good ice-cream there. It'll be worth the trip."
The sun kissed the ground in the horizon as the sun's light engulfed the land. The sky was an array of bright pinks, violets, crimsons, and yellows. The marsh under my feet felt damp like mud because of a rainstorm hours ago. The air tasted humid.
"Once night falls, I'll depart," I decided as I glanced ahead, "It is my duty to protect this planet, and I cannot fail. I cannot let the beings of this world become victim to an unknown disease. I am the last guardian of this planet."
