*INTRODUCTION*

Well, I guess this'll be fun. Either that, or it'll be a living hell. Anyway the wind blows, it's gonna be a good

story. I mean, how could it not be? Final Fantasy, The Gunslinger, Cowboy Bebop, and Berserk, in addition to

some custom characters... all in ONE story? Sounds good to me. But, before I start, I've got a couple things to

say:

Number one: While I'm writing these chapters, I'll be listening to music. It always helps me write. So, don't

get mad and call me unoriginal if there are some song quotes in the text, song titles for chapter titles, or even

entire chapters loosely based on one song. It's just something I throw in there to keep myself going. Music

gives me insparation, so most of my stories are done while listening to a good CD. Man... I'm starting to

repeat myself... : P

Number two: I have a very... let's say 'original' writing style. While I try to keep typos and spelling errors at

bay, I don't usually do this with convention. I take alot of Poetic License in my writing. Also, I use alot of

sentence fragments. I don't like commas. Never have(And I think the feeling is mutual). See? I did it again

right there.

Numero tre's(I don't know how else to spell it): Rarely, but occasionally, I might stick a movie or anime quote

in the mix somewhere. Don't yell at me, I'm just trying to spice up the dialouge.

Finnally: All my writing is best taken in while listening to music. Otherwise, it's kinda overdone and mediocre.

For example: The ending to this book is, when read without good music, is melodramatic crap. But, while

listening to Sevendust's "Seperate"(As I did when I thought of it), it's a modern-day masterpeice. So, do

yourself a favor. Before you start reading: Pop in some Linkin Park, some Disturbed, maybe even some Slayer.

Trust me. You'll thank me later.

This whole thing is being written for one person. This person inspired me and helped me discover the meaning

of life. This person alone helped me discover my true potential. This person is my brother.
