Ending One:
The Reflections of a Lost Yesterday
Part One: Genius and Insanity
Journal Log Entry for Paul: Password: Peekaboo
I decided now was as good as any time to write my thoughts. During the storm tonight I accidentally crashed the jeep, and what I think that happened was we slid down the mud into the activated Dimensional Vortex. Then I woke up on this weird beach. From there all this crazy stuff happened to me and Diss and I, but was most memorable was the people there. I remember mostly Steena, Kid, and Marcy. Those names stick out to me a lot. But I can't seem to think is how I can't remember anyone else. I think what happened was after my fight with the big ugly thing I was taken to the place I started at and then altered to forget the whole event and then cross back in time to before the time I even arrived there. In that place I remembered something most precious to me, Catherine and Samantha. (record indicates a smile as Paul looks at his Locket)
I can't seem to understand how some red sword possessed me to nearly kill my friends, or how I somehow was able to fight myself in my past. Well, I guess the sword was actually some sort of behavior modifier that sparks the hate in you and since I was altered to think irrationally it was like a back up reminder system to eliminate Diss in the event he became to powerful. So I guess when Evil Serge brainwashed Diss the Red Sword activated its beacon that hit my brain thought system, which was altered so I got the new idea of killing Diss. Or in short, my alterations were designed to pick up a specific command that was implanted into the sword to inform me of when I should eliminate Diss. Yes, that makes sense. But in killing Diss I would have become too powerful myself, and since I's body rejected the alterations the supercomputer FATE needed a back up source. So thus.ah, that's why I can remember Steena! Steena must have been by a record of FATE and given the new commands to fall in love with me. Her falling in love with me was a backdoor to keep me from becoming too powerful! I was to listen to her and she was ordered to convince me to stop doing anything that would have caused me to go on a power trip. Since I failed they needed a more subtle way to control me, and that was Steena! Now when FATE was destroyed Steena should have stopped thinking I was her boyfriend, but she didn't.
The reason why was the Frozen Flame. The flash that knocked out Kid and I was an emergency procedure to literally deactivate us so we wouldn't be able to go solo and grow powerful. The flash also was another emergency counter measure in the event I awoke. Steena was still given the last command to stay in love with me to keep me in place. In the event I had to wake up to stop anything I was designed to stop and the Masamune was to be the key. In the event the Dragon Gods gained power Kid was to be awakened by the Mastermune, or the Chrono Cross. The two girls from my locket were modified holograms to check up on me. In the event I had to be deactivated they would send the command to my brain to kill Diss and Kid at the same time using the Masamune as the connector. They would tell me to kill them and since they were considered my way of thinking I would have obeyed with no questions. Now the thing is they really are my way of thinking. And I was told to kill both Diss and Kid, but somehow in a way I can't rationalize right away the command was over ridden.
Now at one point I did become too powerful, and the last counter procedure to stop me, Diss, and I so that we would no longer be a problem was the big fight at the beach against the shadow cats. But since we were still going strong the Mothership had to come in to blow us to hell. Since we destroyed that Evil Serge, AKA FATE, was no longer able to stop me, and I in that world am the most powerful being aside form the Time Devourer. Sometime in that world Evil Serge vowed to stop me, and that vow was like a command that in the event FATE couldn't carry it out, the Mothership would. Now since the Mothership was destroyed any commands given by FATE to keep me in check should have stopped, which meant Steena should have stopped loving me.
That means Steena, no longer under FATE's powers actually grew feelings for me and fell in love with me! That would be too good to be true though. This is probably all from my imagination that is running wild. The place I was in was too real to be a dream though. I had to have spent months there. Then again, maybe the whole experience was a dream.
Part Two: Obsession into Madness
Honeymoon Day 4 August 4th 2069
It's been four days since I began my honey moon and at least a month since we returned from the other world. During this time I have reflected on a lot in my life. Hydros has been dead for half a year, but every now and then I can swear I hear him. It's impossible considering what happened in the mountain, but then again everyone thought Christy was dead for a short while. It wouldn't be a tough feat to convince us the Champion killed him.
I often also reflect on my times back in the other Dimension. It was often a trying time to me; at times I thought my sanity had snapped. The others would probably never have guessed how close I came to following behind Paul into insanity. Things have calmed down since then; I haven't had to take up a fight in a long while, though I am still teaching at Temple Diablo. Maybe I can finally be at peace with my existence. The Aryans can't seem to touch me anymore, and for that I'm thankful. That will make the rest of the time with my wife that much more enjoyable. Unfortunately I'm not sure if I'll be happy forever.
Long ago the doctors that had been studying me and Samantha had discovered we had immense regenerative powers. The common extrapolation was we might have anywhere from double to triple the normal lifespan. I don't know how I can live that long with my wife knowing she might die long before I do. I only hope its theory and not fact.
Looking back on our second adventure it seems to me like we needed it. It showed us much of our weaknesses and much of our strengths. I know that even when I'm broken on the inside I'm still able to protect the ones I love. Maybe now I can find peace in my soul.
Part Three: Paradise Lost
August 14th 2069
After about a month of trying, I can't get the dimensional distortion generator to work anymore. It appears that the link between the two dimensions is closed. As much as I would have loved to have seen Orlha one last time I will have to go without. Diss seems to be taking this lighter than Paul, who obviously is still hurting from the argument with Rachel. Seems like at times we all wish we were back in that world.
Upon further research I think I realized what happened, someone destroyed the generator on the other side disconnecting the two worlds. All I can remember though is that I heard a voice say good bye and I woke up in the mountain along with Diss, Christy, and Paul.
I guess Fate had other plans for me. I hope I can find someone caring and Intelligent like Orlha. We seemed so perfectly matched, but then again I never thought I would find anyone. I guess I'll be bar hoping until the end of my unfortunate life.
On a lighter note, Diss and Christy have been married and Christy is nicely coming along in her pregnancy. She only threatened Diss' life twice today as opposed to the normal three if he ever did this to her again. Paul and Rachel seem to keep trying to make amends, but perhaps the modifications have formed a wall between them. Every time Rachel tries to be serious and talk to Paul he brings up migration patterns. I'm beginning in to think that the modification may end with my friend doing something rash and psychotic.
