Bloody Roar I: Mind Of Innocence

6/21/08

Hi I'm writing! My dad says when he was my age his dad got him a book that had blank pages. Thats funny becuz because all the books I seen so far already had words in it! Dad got me one of those blank page books today and told me to write in it and so I am right now! Dad's teaching me something called litter literacy and my teacher is teaching me how to spell a lot of words so writing isnt that hard! It's kind of fun! I have to go eat now but I'll be back later and write some more!

6/23/08

Hi again! Last time I wrote I forgot to do something called an introe introduk introduction. That's when you tell your name and a few things about yourself. I know that because my teacher had me and my other classmates do that on the first day of 2nd grade. My name is Bryan Takiyo and I'm 7 years old almost 8! I have short black hair and light brown eyes. School just got over yesterday and I wont have to go for almost three whole months! I asked Dad why couldnt it be longer but all he did was smile and said "don't push your luck". My teacher told me before that luck wasnt a thing so how can I push it? Dad can be funny sometimes. Oh yeah and I dont have a mom. She died a few days after I turned 7. I really miss her. Dad told me that he would never remarry because he loves Mommy too much. But now that Mommy is gone who will take me to see my uncle? I don't have any brothers or sisters but I remmer rememeber remember when my mommy used to bring me to see her brother when I was five years old. He's my uncle Long. He's really serious but its fun when he picks me up and lets me ride pigy piggyback. Uncle Long also used to pick me up and raise me really high and I pretend Im flying. Dad doesnt like him though I wonder why? Oooh Dad just called me to see a movie on TV! Maybe I'll get to stay up late tonight well anyway I hope so!

7/1/08

I'm so cold. And lonely too. My dads gone now. I'm an orphan. Remeber Remember that night I stayed up to watch a movie with Dad? Well when it got really late, so late that the sky looked purple a scary creature ran into the living room and… And that monster killed my daddy!! Im so angry! He killed my daddy! Now I have no parents what am I gunna gonna do? Im still a kid. After Dad got something called mer murdir murdered some other strangers ran into the room and took me away. But I feel sleepy now so I'll write later bye bye.

7/7/08

I'm so tired. Those scary people took me away from home and put me in this yucky smelly little room. They said that soon theyre gonna make me train in the way of ninjatsu ninjutsu. I don't know what that means but it doesnt sound good. I'm glad this book is so small because I put it in my pocket that night those people came to my house. I had a pen in my other pocket that my dad bought for me. If I didnt have this book I would be so bored. But Im a little sad that the first page of my book got ripped out. I wonder if Dad would be mad if he knew. But I didn't do it on purpose it was an axi axident. I feel tired again so Im going to sleep don't worry I'll write later.

7/22/08

Ive been so busy lately. I don't know why but those people oh I found out they work for a company called Tylon. I bet they don't know that I'm 8 years old today. I feel sad that I cant see any of my friends because they would wish me a happy berth birthday. Anyway those people have been teaching me how to fight. Theyre starting to call me a ninja. I think I've seen a ninja before on TV. They look really neat with their fast movme movement and always hiding in the shadows. I like their clothes too. Tylon makes me wear this white dressy thing that looks like pijam pajamas. I don't like it at least they gave me a new dressy thing and underpants after this lady made me take a bath. Uh oh theyre starting to turn off the lights so I have to go bye!

8/3/08

Tylon people teach me how to fight every day. I feel so tired by nighttime because the tran training lasts the whole day. I fall a whole when doing jumping stuff and I get hit on my arms by this big mean guy with grass for hair and four rings hanging from his ears. He hits me with this thing called a yardstick. I also heard one of them say that soon enough I'll get a beest beast form. What does that mean? I remember hearing a story about a story about a beast thing but it sounded scary. Are they gonna make me fight a big snarling beast? I'm afraid…

8/30/08

The Tylon people are starting to make me train lesser now. Will they let me go soon? Will I be stuck here for long time like after I grow up? I'm already 8 years old now and Ive been here for what seems like ten years. I think they're planning to do something big soon. I don't like this place I'd rather go back to school than stay here. The Tylon people are coming now I gotta go!

9/14/08

My arm hurts! Those meanys! These two people took me into a room and this man gave me a shot! Only my doctor did that when I was little but that man isn't my doctor! Another person nearby was giving a shot to this other kid. I didnt know there was another kid here. I wonder if it's a boy or a girl. If it's a boy then maybe I can talk with him. I can pretend he's my brother or maybe we can be best friends. I hope we'll see each other again!

9/16/08

It's a girl. A couple of the Tylon people put her into this room with me. She's been sitting in that corner since they pushed her in here. I wonder if she's crying? Her hair looks a little longer than mine is and it's dark brown. It looks kinda pretty, for a girl that is. I guess I can go and talk to her. I mean, maybe she's new here and is scared because she doesnt know anything. But if she is a crybaby then I don't want to be her friend…

9/19/08

Sorry I didnt write sooner the other girl and I were talking all night. Im so tired right now but I had fun talking so I don't really care. She wasn't crying she was picking up rocks from the ground and throwing them at the wall. I think she was kinda scared when I first went up and tapped her on the shoulder but then she grabbed me by the arm and threw me down to the ground. I got mad and yelled at her but she said sorry so Im not mad anymore. I'm a little bigger than her unless she stands on her tiptoes. She's the same age as me, 8 but she just had her birthday so Im two months older than her. Writing is fun but talking with her is too. She's already in 3rd grade she told me but I didnt know that school started again! She told me that she learned some things already so she'll teach them to me. My new friend is a girl. Thats kinda funny because at school the boys play with the other boys and the girls stay with the girls playing dolls. My new friend says she doesnt like dolls. She told me that her bot bout bought her a doll once but she threw it in the garbage and her mom got mad. She couldn't watch TV for three days. She's also doing sumth somth something to my book called ede editing. I trust her because she's already been to a couple weeks of 3rd grade. I'm learning about commas, and apostri apostra apostrophes. She's a good teacher, I think I like her more than my old 2nd grade teacher. Oh the Tylon people are coming again so I gotta stop now, bye!

9/28/08

My new friend has been gone a lot lately, I wonder why? When she comes back to this room it's late and she's not awake but I don't think she's really asleep either. Um I think it's called being unkon unconsh unconshuse. When she gets out of being unconshuse she cries a little and when I ask her why she always tells me that she hurts. She doesn't remember what those Tylon people did to her but she says she feels like saying ouch many times. Something weird she heard was that those people were talking about the beast form things again. She says the shots we got from the big men who aren't our doctors have something to do with the beast forms. I think shes got really good ears if she's learned all that from just listening to the people talk. It's lights off now bye bye.

10/13/08

Today the Tylon people made us fight. Not each other but we had to fight with these robot dolls. My robot doll hurt my arm but then I grabbed its leg and pulled it up and the doll fell down. My friend was fighting in another room so I didnt see anything, but I heard lots of noises that went thump! We went back to our yucky room, which she calls a cell at nighttime. She seemed sad and scared while we were in the fighting place but now she's okay. I feel tired so I'm gonna sleep oh, I forgot to do an introduction for her too. We talked for a lot of days but we never asked each other out names. Before she fell asleep a few minutes ago I asked what her name is. Her name is Uriko.

10/24/08

That's a pretty name. Uriko. I like saying it, because it sounds nice on my tongue. Uriko. She was gone this morning again and its nighttime now, she just got back. She was crying when she came in and I saw some big owies on her arm. She needs a big bandage for those boo-boos. A little bit of red stuff called blood was coming out of her cuts and she said they hurt and wished that her mom were here so that she could get a hug from her. My mom used to give me hugs. That's when you open your arms wide and wrap them around someone else. I know Im now her mom but I don't like seeing my friend sad so I crawler over to her and gave her one of those hug things. Uriko has to wear the white dressy thing too and her sleeves were up so that her blood wouldn't touch the sleeves and turn them red. She was kinda surprised by what I did I think but she stopped crying so that's good and actually Im still holding her right now. I'm sitting with the wall touching my back and I feel kinda cold from it even though I'm wearing clothes. Uriko's on her bottom but she's kinda lying down too. Her arms are around my waist and her head is lying on my heart I think. I was more cold before but now that she's resting against me I feel warm. Theres a funny feeling in my tummy. I wonder what it is? It's a little hard to write this way but I don't care. I like what we're doing. Oh, she's asleep now… I think I'll do the same then, good night.

11/5/08

Uriko knows a lot. She doesn't mind telling me something if I ask her a question. I know she doesnt know everything, but still more than I do. I'd like to learn from her. Like today, she was editing my writing and told me about something called peara paira paragraf paragraphs. I understand what they are.

Funny I listen to Uriko a lot more than I did my teachers. They're boring, at least she smiles and we make jokes while talking and learning things from each other. She asks a lot of questions about my dad. She doesn't have one because she says her mom told her that he died in a car crash when she was younger. I told Uriko about my mom dying when I was 7 and she hugged me when I think that I looked sad.

Uriko's nice. Some girls that were in my class at school ignored the boys or a few of them called us names. The boys do the same to them too haha. Uriko says that she's good in reading and writing at school but she doesn't like math. I like math so I asked her if she wanted me to help her with it and she said that'd be cool and also said thanks.

I also learned something else today. While Uriko and I were in the fighting rooms again I ducked when my robot doll was going toward me and it crashed into the wall. I waited for the grass hair guy to let Uriko out of her room so that we could go back to the cell but I didn't hear him say anything. I looked around for him and finally found him doing something weird. He had his arms around this other yellow haired person with very little clothes some red thing covering his or her heart and another black and red thing covering around their bottom. Mr. Grasshair and the other person were really close and their mouths were touching too. It looked like they were trying to change breaths.

The yellow hair person saw me and they backed away from each other. The grass hair meany yelled at me and called me a little nosy sneak or something like that. He seemed mad I don't know why though. After that he shouted for number 1 specy speciman to come out and I saw Uriko walk out of her fighting room. How come he calls her number 1 speciman? Don't they know her name? I guess not, I don't think she would tell those mean people her name.

I still don't like this place I wanna get out. This is more bad than time-out at school. Even if I don't know where to go I know that I don't want to be in this stupid weird place. Maybe I can go live with Uriko or something I'm pretty sure she'll have to ask her mom though.

11/18/08

Uriko and I had to fight again today but this time we fought against each other. I didnt like doing that I don't want to fight my best friend. Hey I just said best friend. She's my best friend. That's cool and funny at the same time because I don't miss my old friends all that much. Ive had a lot of fun with Uriko lately so I guess she's my new best friend.

Well while we were fighting we stopped for a while because we were both tired and the grass man yelled at us. He called me something yesterday and called me it again: Backeroo or something like that. I guess he doesn't know my name just like he doesn't know Uriko's name. I don't like being called Backeroo it sounds funny. I said that quietly when we were fighting and Uriko asked me what was the name that my mommy gave me.

I remember what my name is it's Bryan, but somehow I don't feel like that's my name anymore because I don't feel like Bryan. Sounds confusing huh? I don't really know how to explain it but that's how I feel. So I told Uriko that I don't remember and she gave me one. She says that from now on she's gonna call me Kenji after her old best friend from school. Kenji, that sounds okay. I don't know if I like it better than Bryan or not but Kenji sounds alright. Kenji Takiyo. Bleh that sounds weird I think a different last name would sound better with a first name like Kenji. Umm I think Uriko's last name is Nonamera oops she looked at my book and said that it's spelled Nonomura.

Oh Uriko wants to talk now so I'll write more tumor twom tomaurow tomorrow okay? As Uriko says, night night!

11/26/08

Okay yesterday when Uriko and me were fighting something else happened. Actually two somethings happened but first I'll tell you about the promise. After Uriko gave me the new Kenji name we also made a promise to escape from this stupid Tylon place someday. We're gonna run away together though. Well I wouldn't want to leave her behind, no way. Uriko says we'll leave this ellhole someday I'm not sure what a ellhole is but I heard the grass guy say it once so I guess that's where she got that from.

So that's our promise, we're gonna run away together someday. I still don't know where I'd live I wanted to ask her and I was going to but then I looked at the mean man with rings in his ears and I saw him doing the mouth thing with the yellow haired person again. I showed it to Uriko and was going to ask her if she knew what it was but then the grass man saw us stop and yelled at us.

When the sky got really dark again she and I went back to our cell and that's when I asked her about the mouth thing. She says it's something called kissing. I didn't understand and she told me that when her dad was alive he and her mom did the kissing thing. Uriko says kissing is what I saw the grass man do with the other person, where two people stand so close to each other that their mouths touch. But what's the point of kissing?

I asked her that too but Uriko says she doesn't know either. It must feel weird to touch someone else's mouth with yours. How long are you suppose to be touching mouths anyway?

I told her I really didn't understand why people do this kissing and she said, "why don't you and me try it then? Maybe we'll understand a little if we do the kissing thing ourselves?" I said that was a good idea and I do wanna know why people kiss. It doesn't seem to be a game like kickball or anything.

We weren't sure how to begin it though. I told her all I saw was the grass and the yellow hair man touching mouths but I don't know how they started the kissing thing.

Well Uriko said maybe we should just stand really close and touch mouths like they did. I don't know how else to do the kissing thing so I just nodded and walked toward her until our noses bumped. We both giggled and she said she wonders how did the two other Tylon people do it if their noses got in the way too. I had an idea so I told her to stand still and I had to tilt my head to the side before I leaned foreword and touched her mouth with mine.

I think that was the kissing thing and it felt wet. Funny thing is there was this fluttery feeling in my tummy like buter butir butterflies were flying inside and their wings were touching me. I don't know if that feeling was good or bad but Uriko closed her eyes for some reason so I did too.

After a while I don't know how long, we both took a step back so then our mouths weren't touching anymore. The air felt kinda stuffy because I didn't breathe while Uriko and me was kissing. Well if I did breathe then I'd be blowing air on her nose and I bet that she would feel funny if I did that.

I asked her how she felt about the kissing thing and she says that she's not really sure although she thinks that she liked it. We're gonna go to sleep now because we're both tired, the food that Tylon gave us was yucky but we ate it since we don't want to be hungry.

I'm glad Uriko liked the kiss. I'm pretty sure that I liked it too, even though I bet the boys at school would say that I have germs from touching a girl. They're stupid. And you know what? I also think that I like Uriko.

12/2/08

Gee a lot of people at Tylon do this kissing thing. I guess that's what kissing is for, because people think it's good and like it. Uriko and me were fighting again today but a nicer man was watching us, it wasn't old Mr. Grass-for-hair and by the way those lines are called hyfens hyphens Uriko told me. This man had brown hair that kinda looks like Uriko's but his is a little shorter. I don't think he was paying very much attention to us because he there was this lady standing next to him and he had his arm around her waist.

Sometimes Uriko and me took short breaks and we peeked at those two and saw them touch mouths a couple of times. The lady has cool hair, very black bangs but the rest was kinda weird because it was white. I wonder if she got paint in her hair? She kept calling the man Stephen so I guess that's his name and he called her Alica so I guess that's her name.

Those two were talking about someone named Boozuzeema whenever they weren't kissing. I asked Uriko if she knows anyone named Boozuzeema and she said that she doesn't although she thinks maybe she's heard a couple of the Tylon people say his name before. I wonder who this Boozuzeema guy is his name sure sounds really funny, like a clown's or something. Is he someone important? Oh well I don't know who he is so I don't really care.

12/13/08

Wow it's been a really long time since I've been here… I wanna get out because I really don't like this place. Maybe I can go live with Uncle Long if I can't go live with Uriko and her mom. But, I don't know where Uncle Long lives. I haven't seen him since I was five so I don't remember where Mommy took me to meet him. If only Dad liked him too then I could have seen Uncle Long after Mommy died… I miss my parents.

I'm glad that Uriko's here with me or I don't know what I'd do if I was by myself for all these days and weeks and months. I hope that Uriko and me can escape sometime soon or else I'm afraid I'll go koo-koo. Well no matter what happens we'll be together when we finally run away from this smelly dump Tylon!

End Of First 6 Months

Author's Note: Whew, I've been giving this first person perspective thing a lot of shots lately, huh? ^^ I hope I'm doing alright; this set of entries is by Kenji obviously, and occurs before the Bloody Roar I game since he's only seven and eight. This fic is in my story universe/timeline because Long is related to him and Kenji's birth alias is Bryan Takiyo. Please don't flame me for the kissing scene I had between Kenji and Uriko - I know they were only eight but it was an innocent experiment. Hell, I did things like that when I was a kid too, LoL. Should I continue with more journal entries?

With love for my fans,
