Chapter 12: Wisdom and Never Giving Up
(For two years Dash has training himself and fighting rebels, but he still can't seem to figure out how to get rid of that memory in his head)
(At John's Home)
Dash: It's been three years since then
John: I know it's been tough for you, but you can't stay with this memory for long.
Dash: Why?
John: I'll tell you why, When Giro died, Joey and I couldn't handle the loss, it was too difficult for us to do so. Then someone told us this, "if you look back and below in a tragic event too much, you'll end up dying at the same point as you were that day, but if you look up and ahead for the future you'll live and die a happy person". Both of us figured it out and lived our lives fighting alongside each other and making new friends and having fun with old ones.
Dash: I don't think I could ever do that
John: Don't think that way, you will be a better fighter and person if you think with an open mind and a positive attitude. For your case it's not easy to move on from this but you can do it. If Joey and Mari were here right now, would they want you to feel this way.
Dash: No
John: That is the point I am trying to tell you. You can be like this for the rest of your life, there are people who try to bring you down with this memory but you have the power to bring yourself back up and prove that you have moved on.
Dash: Ok. thanks John, these are good words to live by, but how can you say it in a straight face.
John: I was a Hunter for almost twenty years. My passion was to protect those who are helpless and who I cared about, but my hobby is reading. The more you read, the more you learn and the more you learn, the more wiser you are.
Dash: It's getting late, should I leave?
John: I would if I were you, try to visit me sometime, it's always a pleasure to have some company.
Dash: Ok
(Meanwhile at Arcadtropolis Castle, Amber is looking outside by the City when Mira enters in with Aurora, one the castle's maids)
Mira: Things have been crazy lately, Cases of rebels have been popping up all over the news, my sister Margarita had to cancel her break plans to have more time to investigate them. My parents are worried sick for her safety.
Aurora: I can understand why, it's never a good thing to have so much to do in so little time. (looks at Amber) Amber, Your Highness. Why are you still up at this time?
Amber: What time is it?
Mira: Almost 10 at night. Are you not tired?
Amber: No
Aurora: Is it because you still wish you had parents here.
Amber: Yes
Mira: Amber, These things happen to everyone. I know it's sad but nobody wants to see you with a frown in your face.
Aurora: You will be ruling in three years. Don't let anything be in your way.
Amber: Okay
Question 1: Did you ever consider adding other people's "Original Characters"? (General)
Answer 1: Earlier when writing the story I actually considered adding them, However I didn't know how PM's worked and I was a bit shy. It was when writing around Chapters 10-15 when I abandoned the idea though I might consider the Idea for future stories.
Question 2: How do you write your stories? (General)
Answer 2: I write them in Google Docs, then I copy and paste them here, From then I add any Side-Notes as well as Questions and Answers
