Digital Love

Dear family,

Times have been tough for all of us, and I know my death impacted all of you. I want to thank you brothers for being with me whenever I needed you. You're my family, and don't ever forget that, but I don't want to hurt any of you. Don't search for me; just pretend I was never brought back at all, for my sake, please.

Pixal, though I have only known you for a short time, it has been the best of my entire life. If it weren't for you, I would have never known true happiness. From the moment I first met you, you have always been in my mind. You saved my life and I saved yours. You will always have a special place in my heart. I love you. We are compatible.

Father, I want to thank you again for creating me, for raising me to be who I am. I know you can make another son for yourself, to replace me. You will do it for me, won't you?

Sensei. Thank you for stopping me from killing myself in that lake and for taking me in to teach me how to be a ninja. If it weren't for you, I would still be wandering the streets, or be dead. I also wouldn't have met my wonderful family.

Kai, my first impression of you when we were formally introduced (not including when I believed you were an intruder) was an impatient, hot head kid. I was both wrong and right. You… still were reckless, yet you were kind and merely concerned for your sister's life. Had I known, perhaps I would have had a different impression of you.

Lloyd, at first, I found you a trouble-making nuisance that needed to be locked up. I was partially right at the former, but you're a good child, one I found to be a little brother who needed and wanted to help. Remember to treat others the way you want to be treated. You'll make more friends that way.

Jay, you talk too much. Despite that quality, you possess one that overrides it, and one that is compatible with it. I'm certain you already knew the latter was humor of course. On the also compatible and, your optimism cheers everyone up, no matter what circumstances we're in. Don't ever stop being yourself.

Cole, you need to know that your leadership is a great quality of yours. However, you brag often and it is unpleasant to most women (did you receive my hint?). I find you quite capable of accomplishing various tasks. Since there is no need for a ninja, your strength will be perfect for many different jobs.

Nya, I know you are having a difficult time choosing between Jay and Cole. No pressure. It's your decision and I know you will make the right one. You are a strong girl, and capable of self-reliance. It's healthy for you.

With much love,

Zane Julien
