And we head to Arizona who will explain his resolutions.


Chapter 2: Arizona's Resolutions

Hey, everyone. Arizona here to take this time to share my new year's resolutions with you. So...this will be at least 4 years since I've gotten out of Dai Ling's prison and adapted a new life with my friends and new family at the Valley of Peace. I just know that I want this year to be much more better than last year because it's been a huge evolution for me. I'm at that point in my life where I'm growing and maturing as a person and I still wanna figure the world out, but ready to face whatever comes. With the new year comes some new goals I'm gonna set out.

I turn 20 in this new year and for me, it's gonna be a crazy transition to get out of being a teenager and head to adulthood. But if I'm really honest...I'm actually looking forward to being 20 because I didn't think I can live past 19. I've made a promise to myself years ago while I was being a prisoner/slave at Dai Ling's castle that I don't get out when I'm 19, there's no reason to live. But after Musaki got me out of there...I'm so glad I broke that promise because I wouldn't have the life I have right now with my new friends and family. Some of Saki's cousins are in their 20's now and I heard that it's a crazy period in their lives to grow up, but there's some good parts too. I hope that I'll have a chance to grow as a wolf and embrace being in my 20's.

Second resolution; keep being there for my little tiger brother, Max. He's growing so fast and it just seems like time has gone by so quickly for him. I still think of the little cub I met when he was six and ended up becoming brothers. You would think that a tiger and a wolf would not be brothers because they still think the same species hate each other with a passion, but not me and Max. We go through it and make everything last worthwhile. I'm always gonna be there for Max and no matter what happens...nothing will stand in the way of the bond we have and it'll continue to grow stronger as it has ever been.

Third resolution; My relationship with Sierra...I'm willing to be there for her and whatever she needs, I'll always be there if she feels sad, lonely or in need of comfort and support. Our relationship is completely solid and will grow stronger than ever. Both of us have to grow as better people and our relationship will follow suit as well.

Fourth resolution; train as hard as I can to get better physically and mentally and whatever obstacles can come my way, I'll face it head on and go deeper into the unknown. And also continue sparring Musaki in a sparring match. I've beaten him once and I'll definitely beat him again this year. *chuckles*

And fifth resolution; live every second of every day like it's my last and always tell everyone I care about that I love them because you never know when one day they'll be gone. You just never know. That's the one thing I strive for...being there for my family and my friends too because they're the ones I got and they always keep me close in my heart.

Those are my new years resolutions and I hope I get a chance to complete those for the new year and in the years to come. It's not cliche. Anyone who thinks otherwise...might have to answer to me. *growls* So...happy new year everyone!


You heard it here first from Arizona!
