The flames. The embodiment of my very being, shooting out, ripping through the crowd of Nobodies. Dusks, empty uncaring shells of humanity. I let myself go, and my mind drifted to the one guy who made me feel complete.
I was born a long time ago, longer than most people. Unlike most people, I don't like to think about my past, growing up in Twilight Town as a street kid. I don't think people would remember me, the little scrawny kid who tried to become the world's greatest Struggler, and then meeting his end against those weird black things.

It… feels… like….
