Postscript:
It's been three months since last summer. I must say that my travelling has left it's mark at several places.
The fight between Darkwing Duck and those colored people, for instance, had become something that attracted a lot of attention. Many people would come and film what's going on there, only to put those films on the internet.
That beast that I released in North Vancouver has ravaged the entire area. But it would also look as though the public also blame that beast for other things that have happened, before I even released it. This could mean only one thing: that this beast isn't the only one out there, but nobody knows that, nor would they care as all they'd need is just the one scape-goat.
In Germany, some more blood sheds were occurring as well. Accept that here the dead bodies that were found showed only three types of injuries that caused their deaths. Some were ripped to shreds, others were drained of their blood, the rest were crushed by something very strong. I don't know if this has anything to do with me having been there, but it's no coincidence that these things started shortly after I killed Daninsky. So far, I haven't found much of an explanation as to what's happening, but I hope to find something very soon.
As for the conspiracy-theorizing community, my mentioning that I was arrested for being anywhere near Creek Mountain, while nothing else happened at other military bases, helped to confirm some ideas that people have. It's been theorized that the military base in Creek mountain hold something called a stargate. I'm not sure what that's supposed to mean, but I guess this is interesting to look into.
Then I haven't begun about a shooting incident at Sunnydale High, that happened just last month. I wasn't involved with the incident, but if we are to believe some religious fanatics, I am responsible for bringing this to them. When school started again, you can imagine how surprised the teachers were when they found the Religious Education classroom all ravaged and dusty. Until that was fixed, they decided to not teach anything religious. To fanatics, that meant that God was banned from the school, and therefor couldn't protect the people there. Another idea that heavily contradicts the notion of God being almighty and all-loving.
Speaking of which, when putting my journal on the net for all of you to read, I got some mixed reactions. Some people, for instance, could not understand how stupid I was to "misinterpret" God's intentions (whatever that means), while others couldn't understand that I'd denounce him to be the real saviour and yet help other people to believe some god they don't know, i.e. Daizyujin (which nobody could spell right), that he is the real one. I never suggested anything like it. Daizyujin is just another god, but he doesn't demand anything from anybody. If he did, I don't think even the Zyurangers would be with him up in heaven. The only thing I did was earn his respect. And that's the difference between him and God, the latter of whom would demand our respect, even if... no, especially when he doesn't deserve it. I for one am glad he's done for. But anyway, in reply to what these religious fanatics imply, I do not tell people to start believing in Daizyujin, nor do I start chanting some songs to him that mean nothing to me, or do I uphold traditions for no good reason. In other words, I'm not trying to start another silly cult.
I also recieved a few death threats that demanded me to delete my journal, or else... well you know. If I were to do that, I'd be supporting those who would kill you for any reason at all. So I didn't delete it, obviously.
Also, there were quite a few people who did their homework. That monster I mentioned to have seen in Japan, which nobody else could see, some theorize that it was a shinigami (god of death). The only reason they could think of as to why I was the only one seeing it, was because I've died once.
Which brings me to the following: when reading in my story that there's a murderer on the loose in New Jersey, West-Virginia, Illinois, Texas, California,... officials started quite a few manhunts. Some of them returned empty-handed, while others... didn't return at all.
On top of that, upon reading that the Family collected monsters, their convent in Jamestown was raided, and they indeed found every single virus that has plagued the planet before. Not to mention that now people have now completely lost faith in the Family, so they too are out of business. That's one religion less to worry about.
Then there've been these messages I recieved from lesbian women, who for some reason were convinced that I was a woman too. Why would they do that? Because I read books rather than magazines? Because I actually express emotions? Because I have no interest in sports whatsoever (or at least not the big ones like soccer or car-racing)? Because I'd rather defend than attack people? It's funny to see what would go through some people's minds.
That's all for general messages. To talk about some of the individual ones: there was this guy that called himself Ned, who plans to work on some sort of survival guide for travelling around the world. He wanted to know whether I could give him some tips. The only valid tip I could give him was that nothing I'd tell him could possibly prepare him, or anybody, for travelling around. At best, he should travel himself, then write down some of his own findings.
Not sure I should mention this, but this guy that called himself Ruxpin was among the people who wanted me to delete the story, albeit for different reasons. He thought that the story upsets too many children. That's the only excuse he had to demand of me to either delete the story or make it more kid-friendly. I refused, of course. I wrote whatever happened to me, and if he doesn't like it, he shouldn't read it. Same goes for the children.
If you wondered, yes I quit my job of cleaning factories and took a job at SGS. It's been interesting so far. Not only does it promise the excitement that wasn't in my last job, I also got to hear of some people of whom I didn't even know they existed. These people are some very famous archaeologists, paleontologists and whatnot: Daniel Jackson, Henry Jones and his son, Ross Gellar,... I should add, however, that our job isn't that easy, what with this woman, Croft I believe, who considers us as opponents for some game she plays. And from what I heard about her (no, I haven't actually met her myself) she's quite the dangerous one, for someone who's past her forties by now.
I know, this statement may seem inconsistent with my mentioning before that I've been losing my sanity over too much excitement. And you're right, I would have, but when I started doing beastfist, it helped me relax. Even my sensei didn't recognize the animal that I seemed to be mimicking. But with me having had a few experiences with dinosaurs last summer, I have an idea of what animal that I'm mimicking.
With my martial arts skills and the magic that I gained from Magiel, I've made a great asset to SGS. Not to mention that with me working for SGS, and every now and then doing something for SPD, I got myself two giant vehicles, which could turn useful when it comes to it. I must say, I was afraid of going to the Republic of Greater East Asia, yet it's that particular area that's changed my life forever.
On a more personal note, Erica broke up with me. Although she had that special... bond with me, what with this one thing she's shared with me and nobody else, we still live quite far away from each other. With the possibility that she may meet someone like me in the New England area, she decided she shouldn't wait for me to come visit her (every once in a long while), so she thought of breaking up. I don't blame her for doing that. Don't think I'll find anyone like her here, but one can always dream, can't he?
As for Jess, she still contacts me every once in a while, but not to tell me what else she's done with the Necronomicon. She's too busy with college to even try something else. But I guess that since I've helped her, people are keeping a distance from her now, so she won't run into any more trouble.
I only wish Hana would get in touch again. I mean, she's been keeping an eye on me for a long time and suddenly she didn't let me hear from her. It's not that I need her help now, but I just wonder why I haven't heard from her at all anymore. Plus, wouldn't you like to meet with someone who helped you from afar face-to-face?
So altogether, it's safe to say that since my trip around the world, my life has gotten better. I now have a better-paid job, actually do something I enjoy, have an interesting hobby, have some friends,... However, there have been rumors that living dragons have been seen in and around London. Like I said before, every time something's built up, there'll always be something to tear it down. If it were dragons, that would be something new. But anyway, so far they're just rumors. Even if there were some truth to it, I'm now better prepared for this than I've ever been for anything like this.
THE END
