Thanks to much prompting (and help) from so many of you, I've gotten around to starting the sequel to Senses of Darkness. I'm not sure how it'll turn out, but I hope you'll be along for the ride!

Afraid of the Light
Prologue
---
Time is an abstract word for Bakugan.
For us, there is no need, no reason, to worry about something as trivial as time. Or rather, there wasn't.
At first, we didn't bother with it. Time was a concept introduced, stressed, by the events that brought our world to the brink of destruction. Naga's immature attempt for total control thrust us into a human world where there was never enough time. A place where we knew time was running out.
Then New Vestroia came around.
Time lapsed back into an irrelevant word. Granted, we knew it's meaning, in one sense, but that didn't matter. All that we were concerned about was that day turned to night and night turned to day in an endless cycle.
It was in this fashion that "time" passed for me and for most other Bakugan, I'm sure. We didn't keep track of how much of it had gone by.
A mistake.
I should've seen it coming.
The invasion.
I should've fought harder.
Imprisonment.
I should have…I could have…I would have…
True regret.
Why didn't I, you ask?
Self-interestedness. Selfishness. Egocentricity. Stupidity. Call it what you may.
You know what?
Hindsight's a bitch.
Well, any thoughts so far? Oh, and I dare you to guess who's point of view this is! Before I forget, thank you to everyone who has helped me out: AccessBlade, Serenade of Water, Centralion, FALLING-ANGEL24, and so many others!
Review!
