Chapter 36: The Destruction Towards the Outcome
"Fuck..." Anzel cursed, sweat pouring down his face.
He clutched his side, where a large gash had been torn open, staining his clothes with blood. He had only 100 Life Points left, no Spell or Traps, and controlled only Force Dragon in Defense Position, whilst Hotaru still controlled the shadowed Yavix with 2700 ATK, and still had 1000 Life Points.
"Oh? Did you get a boo-boo?" Hotaru asked mockingly. "Sorry about that, I just have a fetish for watching others hurt like a bitch."
Anzel grit his teeth as he struggled to his feet, his wound burning like fire. "I-I...will NOT...fall here!"
Hotaru just grinned. "Keep telling yourself that. I set a card and end my turn."
Suddenly, a roar echoed across the black sky, and the two Duelists looked up to see Timestream Destruction Dragon launching its attacks against the slums, causing giant explosions and fires.
"Wh-What is that?" Anzel thought aloud.
"Friend of yours?" Hotaru asked, before chuckling. "Just kidding. It's the monster that will reduce this Dimension to rubble...Timestream Destruction Dragon!"
"What...do you..." Anzel grunted.
Hotaru put his hands behind his head, enjoying the destruction that the monster caused. "This is only the beginning...soon, another monster will appear, then, we will turn this dimension to dust."
Anzel straightened himself, ignoring the pain. "What...do you mean?"
Hotaru turned to him, as the fires behind him made his face look even more sinister. "It's very simple..." A mad grin spread across his face.
"I hate everything. I want everything to burn and die."
Anzel kept a straight face at the dark proclamation, placing two fingers on the top of his Deck. "My turn!" His eyes widened at the card he drew. "I activate the Spell, Xyz Horizon!" The card showed Gagaga Magician and Gogogo Golem spiralling into the sun, which outlined a shining figure of Utopia. "I pay half my Life Points..."
Anzel's LP: 50
"To target 1 monster I control, then Special Summon a Level 5 or lower monster from my Graveyard with its effects negated! Revive, Half-Heart Dragon!" The heart themed monster rose out of the dark portal. "Then, I can change either of my monsters Level to match the others, and immediately perform an Xyz Summon using those two monsters! I make Force Dragon's Level the same as Half-Hearts; 5, and overlay them!" The dragons turned into yellow and purple energy that zigzagged into the portal.
"Abandoned soul faded from memory, possessing the ancient ruins from identical remembrance! Rise now, and shake the earth itself to its very core! Xyz Summon! Reveal yourself! Rank 5! Yavix the Forgotten Gaia!"
The ground burst open as something emerged from it. A giant body made of brown stone towered over Anzel, it's body was a circular shape, with a large crack across the chest, revealing a glowing purple cube inside of it, which pumped like a heart, sending glowing purple lines out in zigzags along the rest of its body. It's shoulders were spherical, as white crystals jutted out of them, and the rock forearms took the shape of bells, leading up to its five fingers which glowed purple whilst floating around the holes where its palms should be. At it's waist was a stone ring glowing pueple, suspended in midair, constantly spinning around its diamond shaped waist, which was also a white crystal, connecting its upper body and lower body together. It's lower body was two floating silver crystals encased in rock armour at the sides, acting as legs, whilst its head was a stone spire on top of the body, with two circular pirple eyes glowing out from it. It's stone body was infected with moss, as broken, decaying vines hung off of its body and arms.
Yavix the Forgotten Gaia, Rank 5, Rock, EARTH, ATK: 2700, DEF: 1800
"Oh? You use dragons but that monsters a walking rock pile? That's hilarious!" Hotaru laughed.
"Look who's talking." Anzel spat. "I activate Yavix the Forgotten Gaia's effect! When it's Xyz Summoned, I can detach all Overlay Units from it to activate one of its two effects for each one used!" Yavix absorbed both of its orange comets into its core. "Using its first Overlay Unit, I activate Yavix's first effect, which increases its attack by 900 until the End Phase" The Xyz Yavix's ATK rose to 3600.
"Using its second Overlay Unit, I activate Yavix's second effect! With it, I can return 1 Spell or Trap you control to the hand, and prevent you from activating or setting it until your next End Phase! Power Pressure!" Yavix held out its palm as purple shockwaves resonated out, forcing Hotaru's set card back into his hand.
"Battle! Yavix the Forgotten Gaia! Attack that fake abomination! Ancient Rage!" Yavix aimed its arms, as purple energy built up inside, its fingers hovering around its barrel arms before two purple lasers fired out and obliterated the shadowed Fusion Yavix, sending Hotaru flying and crashing to the ground.
Hotaru's LP: 100
"I...I end my turn..." Anzel huffed as the pain and fatigue returned, his Yavix's ATK returning to normal.
"...Woooooooooooah...that was fun." Hotaru stood up and brushed himself down, smiling creepily. "You really are strong! This has been so much fun!...But..." His smile faded away, to be replaced by a stern look. "I've actually got stuff to do. So it's time I ended this. My turn! I activate-"
He was interrupted as a roar filled the sky, and both Duelist's looked up nas Timestream Destruction Dragon flew over them, charging a Massacre Cannon.
"Shit!" Anzel cursed as the two Duelists dived away from each other as the red, purple and black cannon laser obliterated the building they were standing on in a huge explosion.
Anzel coughed as debris smoke filled his lungs, and rubble covered his back. He struggled to his feet and checked his Duel Disk, which read 'CONNECTION LOST'.
"Damnit! Damnit! DAMNIT!" Anzel cursed as he leaned against the wall, trying to stop the bleeding. "I...damnit, I can't do anything!" He punched the wall in frustration. "I...I..."
"Do not be so hard on yourself..." A familiar voice said.
Anzel's eyes widened as he stood up, and whipped his head around. He saw an old man with a long, wispy grey beard and a metal coin-like contraption in place of a left eye, wearing nothing but a brown cloak, as he sat cross-legged.
"Y-You..." Anzel whispered.
"You have fought incredibly hard, but even you must admit that you are heavily wounded." The old man told him. "For your own safety, I have to tell you to return to the Xyz Dimension in order to recover."
"Are...you joking?" Anzel gasped for air. "Your the one who brought me here in the first place!"
"I'm not saying your mission is over, just that you need to retreat for now in order to heal properly. You have...acquaintances in the Xyz Dimension do you not?" The old man twisted the coin contraption for his eye, making it focus more, like a camera. "Now is not the time to be prideful. The greatest of men know when to fall back."
Anzel panted heavily as he looked at his hand, which was completely covered in blood. "Fine...I admit it, I'm seriously messed up...help me."
The old man nodded. "I shall." He held hisa hand out, and a portal opened up. "This should take you back to the Xyz Dimension. When the time is right, we will meet again."
Anzel looked at the portal. "How the hell are you able to do that?" But when he looked back, the old man was gone. "Same response...charming..."
Anzel limped through the portal, and it closed behind him.
Meanwhile, Hotaru was walking through the streets, unharmed, carrying his box of chocolates and eating them once again. "Well, that was anticlimactic and unsatisfying. I really wanted to kill that guy too...first Elliot and then him? Man, either I have the worst luck ever, or they're being protected from dying for some reason!"
He continued to eat chocolates as he thought aloud. "Oh, well...time to get back to doing what I really came here for. This is going to be so enjoya-Oh! OHHHHHHH! Chocolate caramel! Somebody lock me up 'cause I've made my taste buds go to heaven! But yes, I am going to brutally kill some people."

Leiko and Ayu: WIN!
"Hell yeah! Suck my dick, cocksuckers!" Leiko 'cheered'.
"No time for that!" Ayu snapped, punching him across the face. "C'mon!"
"Yes, MUM." Leiko muttered as they both ran over to a garage door.
"1, 2, 3, PULL!" The two of them forcefully lifted it up, revealing their Duel Runners inside.
"Finally!" Ayu sighed as she ran over to her Duel Runner and checked it. "Phew, thank goodness it's not damaged."
Leiko put on his helmet and checked the screen on his own Duel Runner. "Looks like everything's working. Time to get all my shit together."
"What are you gonna do, exactly?" Ayu asked.
"I have no fucking idea." He admitted. "But with everything going on, I've gotta find Yugo. All this shit about Academia that those guys in the Underground were talking about, there's no doubt in my mind that Rin is in the Fusion Dimesnion, so we gotta regroup and go ASAFP!" He then looked at her. "What are you gonna do...Ayu? Things have pretty much gone to shit around here, so if you still wanna leave town-"
"Are you kidding?" She interrupted him, placing her hands on her hips. "Things are pretty messed up at the minute, and that's the reason I gotta stay! There are still a lot of good people here, Li, I'm not gonna just run away from all of it." She sat on her Duel Runner and put her visor down. "So let's get moving!" She then sped off.
Li couldn't help but chuckle. "Man, what a girl, I could follow her anywhere. Plus that fine, fine, ass she has helps. Well, in the words of a man...just DO IT!" He then sped off after her.
Yu-Gi-Oh!
Sora and Tsukikage leapt across the rooftops, hurrying towards the Security Main Bureau.
"We have to get there as soon as possible!" Sora said.
Tsukikage looked left and right, scanning the area, then narrowing his eyes. "Stop!"
They both landed on the ground, in the middle of a square. "What is it?" Sora asked. "We don't have time to-!"
"Something's wrong..." Tsukikage mumbled, as a figure emerged from the shadows, covered in a dakr aura.
"Hello!" I cheered, giving a mock wave.
"Elliot?" Sora asked, narrowing his eyes. "No...your not Elliot..."
"Awwwww, Sora! That's so meeeeeeean! This is how you greet an old butt buddy? I am shocked! Shocked and offended and aroused! Not the second one, though!"
"If you think I'm just gonna let you impersonate my friend like that-!" Sora yelled, only for Tsukikage to hold out an arm to stop him.
"Like you said, we don't have time." Tsukikage told him, activating his Duel Disk. "Go on ahead, I'll deal with this!"
"But-!" Sora started.
"Go! Elliot is my friend too! I won't allow this to continue!" Tsukikage asserted.
"...Okay. Elliot...I promise I'll be back!" And with that Sora ran onward.
"So, Tsukikage...I wanna play a card game." Activate my own.
"Field Spell: Cross Over, activate." Blue platforms appeared around us as Action Cards rained down.
"DUEL!"
Elliot vs. Tsukikage LP: 4000
"I shall begin!" Tsukikage said. "I activate the Spell, Ninjitsu Art of Hazy Duplication to Special Summon a Ninja monster from my hand! Appear! Twilight Ninja Shingetsu!" The four armed ninja appeared in ATK Position. "Then I shall release it to Advance Summon Twilight Ninja Getsuga the Shogun, which can be Advance Summoned using only 1 Ninja monster!" The banner raising advanced ninja appeared on the field with 2000 ATK.
"Now I set a card, and activate the Continuos Spell; Illusion Ninjitsu Art of Hazy Shuriken!" The Spell flipped into existence. "With this, whenever I add a card to my hand other then drawing, I can discard it to inflict 300 damage to you!"
Tsukikage suddenly disappeared before reappearing to grab an Action Card. "I discard this Action Card..." He slid Avoid into the Graveyard. "To inflict 300 damage to you! Hazy Shuriken!" Three purple shuriken launched towards me, and they stung a lot...it was fun!
Elliot's LP: 3700
He grabbed another one and slid it in. "I activate its effect again! Hazy Shuriken!" Another attack.
Elliot's LP: 3400
A third. "Again! Hazy Shuriken!"
Elliot's LP: 3100
Okay, now this was getting boooooooring. So I picked up an Action Card myself, just as he got another one. "Again! Hazy Shuriken!"
"Action Spell; Stand Up!" A barrier erected (heh...erected.) itself to block the attack. "I reduce your effect damage to 0 and end your turn! Too bad, so sad!" He gave me a frustrated look. "My turn! I summon Parally Odd-Eyes Observer from my hand!"
Odd-Eyes Observer had sky blue rubbery skin in the shape of a dragon's, with its chest being armoured with a pink circular gem encased in white, whilst its arms and legs were shielded with violet armour, that had three claws on the end of each hand and foot. On the end of its tail were two curving white spikes, making it look like a pincer, whilst on its head was a purple and red knight-style helmet with two eye-holes, the left eye being blue and the right being yellow.
Parally Odd-Eyes Observer, Level 4, DARK, Dragon, ATK: 1500 DEF: 1000 Pendulum Scale 4
"BATTLE! Odd-Eyes Observer attacks Getsuga the Shogun!" I cried.
"What? But Odd-Eyes has less attack!" Tsukikage pointed out.
"Naieheeeeeeeeve! I activate Odd-Eyes Observer's effect! When it attacks a Level 5 or higher monster, its attack doubles until the end of the Damage Step!" Observer roared as its ATK became 3000.
"Ngh! Continuos Trap, open! Ninjitsu Art of Decoy!" The Trap flipped up. "I target Getsuga, and whilst this card remains on the field, it cannot be destroyed by battle!" As Observer blasted a sky-blue and purple fire from its mouth, a puff of smoke enveloped Getsuga as he was replaced by a stump.
"But you'll still take the damaaaaage!" I sang as the impact forced Tsukikage to shield himself with his arms.
Tsukikage's LP: 3000
"I set a card, now its your move, ninjy." This was just gold.
"...My turn!" He drew. "Battle! Getsuga the Shogun shall attack Odd-Eyes Observer!" The monster swung its lance, making Odd-Eyes burst into golden sparkles.
Elliot's LP: 2600
Tsukikage then grabbed an Action Card. "I activate Hazy Shuriken's effect!" I let myself get hit by the barrage of attacks as he uselessly activated the effect again and again.
Elliot's LP: 2300-2000-1700
After the third round, it was time for the reversal! "I activate my trap! Breaking Limit!" The card showed a white crystal barrier shattering, making dark shadowy ghosts fly out and attack defenseless roman soldiers. "I can only activate this after I've taken damage, but if I take any further damage this turn, this card will destroy itself, and you'll take damage equal to double the total amount of taken this turn!"
"Then that means..." Tsukikage mumbled.
"I've taken 1400 damage so far, idiot!" I smirked. "If you use Hazy Shuriken's effect again, that damage total will rise to 1700! Then, Breaking Limit will destroy itself, and you'll take 3400 damage, meaning you'll lose! So whatcha waiting for!?"
The ninja lowered his eyes in defeat. "I set a card and end my turn."
"Awwwwwww, shame. During the End Phase, Breaking Limit destroys itself without dealing damage." The card burst apart. "My turn!" I couldn't help but grin at the cards I drew. "I, using the Scale 2 Gale Knight, and the Scale 5 Torrent Knight, set the Pendulum Scale!"
Gale Knight was a lanky figure with pale white skin, sharp yellow eyes, and emerald green hair that frayed all over the place, as if it had literally been caught in a tornado. He wore large baggy grey samurai trousers, with a red knotted rope, a tsuna, acting as a belt, with pointed black shoes that had green markings on them. On his upper body he wore an orange jacket that was unzipped on the lower half, exposing his midriff, whilst the rest of it was zipped up with an overly large zip, and the sleeves were helf down with black straps on the biceps and forearms, whilst a black wyvern head was stamped on the back. As a weapon, he carried an electric green guitar with black strings and a yellow lightning bolt shaped pick attached to the bottom of the '8-shaped' drum, though oddly he held it by its neck, as if he would use the main body as a club.
Gale Knight, Level 5, WIND, Warrior, ATK: 2000 DEF: 1500, Pendulum Scale 2
Torrent Knight was a young girl with pink eyes and light blue hair wavy hair, that was actually hidden beneath a sapphire blue hood with three pink gems resembling petals on the front of it. The hood was actually part of a raincoat that draped over her shoulders, similar to Yuya, with the back of it having a pink flower stamped on it, whilst the inside had a black and pink alternating diamond pattern. She also wore a snow white shirt with little yellow flowers as buttons, with frilly end sleeves and waist and an upturned frilly collar, alongside some blue waterproof shorts, and two sky blue wellington boots. She carried a silver trumpet in her left hand, though it was considerably longer then a normal trumpet, and the buttons were teardrop shaped, whilst a blue bubble floated in front of the large end.
Torrent Knight, Level 2, WATER, Warrior/Tuner, ATK: 800 DEF: 1300, Pendulum Scale 5
"Now I can summon Level 3 and 4 monsters simultaneously!" I declared. "Endless power of dark origin, grant me the power to kill all who oppose me! Pendulum Summon! Appear! My monster minions!" Two streams of light fell down.
"From my Extra Deck! Level 4! Parally Odd-Eyes Observer!" The monster reappeared with a roar. "And from my hand! Level 3! Timestream Parally Knight!" The little knight appeared, wielding its oversized sword.
"Timestream Parally Knight's effect! When it's Pendulum Summoned, it gains attack equal to another Timestream, Parally, or Knight monster I control! I target Parally Odd-Eyes Observer!" Parally Knight's sword glowed as its ATK was boosted to 2700.
"Battle! Odd-Eyes Observer will attack Getsuga! And due to it's effect, its attack will double!" Odd-Eyes roared again as its ATK rose to 3000.
"Ninjitsu Art of Decoy will prevent Getsuga's destruction!" Tsukikage said. "Additionally, I activate the Continuos Trap; Barrier Ninjitsu Art of Hazy Winds!" The Trap flipped up to show a silhouette of Twilight Ninja Shingetsu being covered by fog, surrounded by black, leafless trees. "Once per turn, whilst I control a Ninja monster, I can halve any damage I would take!" A small twister appeared around Tsukikage to shield him from the impact.
Tsukikage's LP: 2500
"But I have one more attack! Timestream Parally Knight! Attack Getsuga! Parallel Time Slash!" The monster launched a slashing airwave with a swipe of its sword, exploding into the tree dummy and sending slashing shockwaves at Tsukikage.
Tsukikage's LP: 1800
"I set two cards and end my turn." I finished.
"M...My turn!" Tsukikage drew, his eyes widening at the card. "I activate the Spell Illusion Ninjitsu Art of Moving Shadows!" The Spell showed three Shingetsu's all concealed in the shadows whilst running across a wheatfield, a crescent moon hanging in the black sky above them. "With this, all Ninja monsters I control gain 1000 attack until the End Phase!" Getsuga performed some hand signs as its ATK rose to 3000. "This is it! Getsuga will attack Timestream Parally Knight, making you take 1800 damage!" The two monsters leapt towards each other. "This will end it!"
I burst out laughing. "You really think it'll be that easy, moron!? Continuos Trap card, open! Mimic Clock!" The clock that appeared looked more like a mirror, with thing hands and numbers, and a little tongue sticking out as two large gloved hands stuck out either side of it. "Once per turn, when a Timestream monster I control is attacked, I can make its attack become equal to the original attack of another monster I control! I target Parally Odd-Eyes Observer!" Mimic Clock floated in front of Odd-Eyes and copied its reflection, before floating behind Parally Knight and throwing the ghost version of Observer at the monster, making its ATK become 1500 before it was destroyed.
Elliot's LP: 200
"Your Life Points are a mere 200!" Tsukikage said. "I'll still finish you off!" He grabbed an Action Card and held it out. "I activate Hazy Shuriken to discard this card and inflict 300 damage to you!" He slid the card in and three shuriken were launched towards me. "Come back to us! Elliot!"
"I activate my Trap, Zero Zero Zone." The card flipped up. "As my Life Points are lower then 1000, I pay half of them to reduce all further damage tp 0." The shurikens disappeared just before they hit me.
Elliot's LP: 100
"No..." Tsukikage muttered, hanging his head. "I end my turn." Getsuga's ATK returned to normal.
"Then it's mine! Draw!" I looked at the card I drew, and grinned. "Hehehehe...hahahahahahaha!"
"What?" Tsukikage said.
"I activate Gale Knight's Pendulum Effect!" I laughed as the monster detached the lightning bolt pick and used it to strum a tune. "One time only whilst this card is in the Pendulum Zone, and I control a Knight monster in the other Pendulum Zone, I can add a Knight or Yavix monster from my Deck to my hand!" I took the monster out of my Deck and added it to my hand, a dark aura emanating around it.
"Once more, I'll Pendulum Summon! Revive from my Extra Deck! Timestream Parally Knight!" The swordsman returned to the field.
"Now, I activate the Ritual Spell; Release of Yavix!" The card showed a dark, old room with various murals on the wall clawed out with deep gashes, as a dark purple massive circle with chains shooting down from the ceiling into it sat in the centre, surrounded by black fire candles. The same situation rose up out of the ground.
"Ritual? Just like that girl used..." Tsukikage thought aloud.
"I offer up my Level 4 Parally Odd-Eyes Observer and my Level 3 Timestream Parally Knight!" Suddenly two of the chains broke and wrapped around the two monsters, making them scream in pain as they were dragged down into the darkness of the circle.
"Zenith of chaos! Height of destruction! Limit of rage! Pour into the dark depths of hell, and exonerate the most powerful monster to the light of day, to turn the world to rubble with your rampage! Ritual Summon! Rise! Level 7! Yavix the Unchained Monster!"
A dark figure rose out of the portal, towering over everything as it revealed itself. It was covered in sharp, pitch black fur that stood up like needles, its body was hunched over as two steel spikes extended out of its shoulders, from which two long chains made of interlocking black spikes fell at its sides, with the end being the face of a lion with a large spike sticking out of its mouth. It's arms were large and muscular, as the top side, still black fur, was matted down mostly by white bone-like armour, wrapping around its arms, whilst the underside was dark grey, leathery skin, leading up to three giant curved white claws. Its legs were crouched but bulky, with blood-red jewels acting like shinguards, before reaching three more white claws. A long black furred tail stretched out behind it, with the same black spiked chains wrapped around it, leading up to the end where another red jewel sat on the end, acting as the head for a dragon-like steel head, mouth agape as if roaring in rage, whilst two black spikes extended out of each side of its jaw. Its torso was covered by steel armour covered in black spikes, with what looked to be a broken lock hanging limply from the front of it, attached to it by a chain. It's neck was long, as black spikes jutted out the back of it all the way leading to its head, which had a giant mouth filled with three rows of sharp, savage teeth, whilst sharp, bestial dark blue eyes shone menacingly as sharp steel blades extended out from the bottom of its jaws and from the top of its head, making an 'X' formation.
Yavix the Unchained Monster, Level 7, DARK, Beast, ATK: 2800 DEF: 2000
Tsukikage began to sweat under the gaze of the giant monster. "What is this feeling?...It feels like I'm looking at fear itself!"
"Yavix's first effect activates!" I said. "When it is successfully Ritual Summoned, I can destroy a number of Spell or Trap cards you control, equal to the number of sacrificed monsters! I destroy Ninjitsu Art of Decoy and Illusion Ninjitsu Art of Hazy Winds! Torture Chains!" Yavix roared as its two chains pierced through the cards, instantly destroying them.
"BATTLE! BATTLE! BATTLE! Yavix the Unchained Monster! Destroy that worthless garbage!" The monster roared again as it charged forward.
"Even so, it's just 800 damage!" Tsukikage told himself. "Next turn I'll be able to use Hazy Shuriken and-!"
"There is no next turn." I whispered. "When Yavix the Unchained Monster attacks, it gains attack equal to half the attack of the monster its battling! With Getsuga's 2000 attack, Yavix will gain 1000!" The monster's ATK rose to 3800.
"I-Impossible..." Tsukikage breathed in fear.
"Go, Yavix! Killing Scream!" The monster unleashed a tremendously powerful blast of black, purple and red energy from its mouth as it chains powered it further with purple electricity, easily obliterating Getsuga and washing over Tsukikage.
"AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!" Tsukikage screamed in pain as he was thrown back into a wall, leaving a crater from the impact. His eyes rolled into the back of his head, and he collapsed.
Tsukikage's LP: 0
Elliot: WIN!
"Wasn't that enjoyable?" I asked mockingly as the Ritual Yavix faded away. "Time to see who would be fun to play with next."
A roar echoed across the sky as Timestream Destruction Dragon landed beside me, allowing me to crawl onto its back before I took off again.
Who next, I wonder?

Alright! Finally finished this chapter! We're coming close to the end of the Synchro Arc now, so I decided to wait for the anime to catch up.
Onto more important things though, this story has officially reached 100,000 views! That is amazing and I am so pleasantly surprised that this little story is actually so popular! I mean, that's more then some Youtube videos get!
To me, that really is incredible.
...
Hey. You remember last chapter, I told you there was something else about the Elliot counterparts that affected me? Do you think, maybe, you could answer that now? I'll give you a few moments to think.
...
No? Okay then, I'll give you a hint. Elliot's carbon copy-ness. Leiko's constant swearing and sexual talk. Hotaru's sadistic, cruel and frankly disturbing nature. Anzel's violent and rash nature.
...
Still nothing?
Then I guess I'll tell you...they're BAD characteristics, which define who they are as characters in this story.
You are NOT meant to like these characters.
Because...I didn't, when I made them at least.
They're just stupid little characters in a stupid little story. Nothing more.
And this stupid little story is nothing. A tiny speck in the vastness of the internet. It will never be truly acknowledged or truly recognised.
Because I can't draw. I can't animate. I can't make videos or websites. I can only write. And where is that gonna get me? Nowhere.
This entire story, this entire universe I create, is meaningless.
And it's not just that. My RWBY story, my Undertale story, my Pokemon story, my One Piece stories. All of them surmount to a fleeting read, a way to pass the time before being forgotten. Nothing.
All the work I do, all the love I put into them, all the care and thought and effort I put into the characters. All of that is nothing more then something to be acknowledged of their existence, then promptly ignored by the internet.
All of them, are NOTHING.
...
...
...
...At least...
That's what I thought, at one point.
This story...it started to be acknowledged, after starting off as nothing. And it has grown, and grown, and grown into what it is now, where it has been seen 100,000 times.
People began leaving longer and longer reviews, they were getting invested into the world and with the characters and what would happen next.
People have told me how they became inspired by my story, and how I am, supposedly, an example for them, and have written their own works because of what my own work has done to them.
People have drawn fanart of this. FANART! Never, in a million years did I ever think someone would take the time and the effort to put their amazing skills into something that I thought up and wrote down.
All, and I mean ALL, of my stories, are just silly little ideas floating around inside my head which I write down, and which people happen to enjoy. And I love writing, because I love the silly little ideas floating around inside my head, and you seem to love them too.
I put so much effort into these because I love them and I love their original source, and I guess I just get sad sometimes when they go unnoticed. But all of you, who have done so much to show that you DO care, practically punched me in the face and got me to stop moping, and I thank you for that.
This tiny speck on the internet which is me, is loved, and that has made me more happy then you will ever know, even if I never become more then this, I'm happy as a speck.
So, as a writer and nothing more, I want to thank each and every single one of you, for supporting this, and all of my other stories, and showing me that I am not unnoticed. Thank you all so much!
