i am finally back!!
sorry ive been gone so long, lwet me catch you up on all thats going on,

my grandma is here for my brother and sister's b-days. (they're not twins). yensid and bunraku were both here as well, but they are leaving today. not much went on before the 4th...i did say up till 5 one night tho...^__^ i was watching peacemaker...really good i finally got to finsih it. i also got half way thru black cat. it was the subtitled version and its really good!!! EVERUONE MUST WATCH IT!!!!!!! i tried to type a post like three times, but it woke my dad up and he sent me to bed before i could finish...which reminds me...i will be writing agzin!! i think my hiatus has cleared my head up a bit. i cant give up on this, its a dream of mine to become a published writer, even if it sells purely by the novelty of a fifteen yearold writing it. now, about fourth of july...

FIREWORKS GALORE!!! we had lots of fireworks. i got twenty-five bucks from the neighbor for taking care of the lawn and garden whilst they were away, and my brother had another thirty-two, plus my friend who had twnety three dollars came and bought some to. my friend and i combined our money and got some really nice fireworks!! including chinese firecrakers and three rockets!! there was also a huge storm earlier in the day, it gotr eally really crazy!!! instead of trying to usher everyone inside, i decied to stop being a wuss and wanted to go out in it, but they wouldnt let me...-_-...but at l;east i won the inner victory in that case. anyway, the weatehr cleared up and we got to launch fireworks. it was great and lasted for about an hour or two, plus alot of neighboors had mortars and stuff and they were launching them and the cops showed up on another block which was kinda funny. with diner i got a virgin margarita (for those of you who dont know, its just the mix with no tequila) and later on i tried a real margarita and it was good ^__^ i wouldnt want to drink too much of it tho. i also discovered that it is very hard to play soul calibur with a DDR pad. ^__^ dont ask why i tried...also, my friend decided that she enjoyed using me as a back rest or pillow or leaning on my shoulders and things like that. i honestly dont know if she's just like that with her close friends or if she likes me. i'll find out eventually. anyway...the only other news i ahve is taht i got lots of anime related stuff from the library a couple days ago!! i got FLCL vol 1 and 2 manga, and cowboy bebop: shooting star manga and anime insider magazine. YAY!! flcl is frickin weird!!! the strangest manga i have ever read, and thats saying alot...um...no qesitons, but heres a piccy!!

I WASHED THE CAR!! then i got soaking wet to cool off, then i started attacking my little brother with my soaking wet shirt, which was quite fun! ^__^ i aklso discoverd that i have impecible aim with my foam football! oh crap, i left the neighboors sprinklers on!!

*runs outside* IM BACK! man, its a beatiful night out tonight. my ideal temputrature is in the mid 70's F. ok, i'll be honest, i spent all day on the cpmputer(and doing the other stuff i mentioned). i think something is wrong with it! alot of ppls posts are moved way over to teh right, so i cant read them!! thats why i didnt visit any sites recently. plus last night (monday) i got the blue screen of death! twice!! today i kept getting alerts, then the internet suddnely stopped working. i sont know, but i blame Internet explorer 7. we uninstalled it and i havent found out if it fixed the problem yet. well, thas all ^__^ i'll try to post my story tomorrow.

DONT KILL MEEEE!!!!
sorry again guys, i wrote, just not enough. im kinda stuck and cant think of a transition into teh next major plot point. um..today was another day...just spending all day on the comp again ^__^ but that wont be happening much after a while. styarting monday july tenth, ive decided to start giving some structure to my days. im gonna wake up at 10 or 10:30 and go for a 3 mile roundtrip bike ride, then i will come home, take a shower and eat breakfast. by then it will be like 11 and i will go on the computer for a couple hours. next i will eat lunch and then take another hour or so on the comp. after that i will start working out, cause i need too and i dont know how long that will take. most likely about a half hour. anyone who works ot regularly, tell me how long it wil most likely take! i also want to just like hang out for a while like meditating or something. you knoe, just like being quiet and thinking or not thinking or something. so by then it will be around 2 pm. i'll spend another two hours on the comp. next i will go write and that takes about two hours. then i'll eat dinner and afyer that i'll type up the story and spend the last of the time on the comp before post time. then i'll post and be online till about two AM, go to sleep, and start over agian!

the reason i wont start till then is because on thursday my grnadma is coing up from california for my bother and sitster's b-days. they are like a week apart, but my brother is two years older than my sister. fourth of july is right in between them. so after my brothers b-day on the 7th, so i'll be starting on the monday after that. ok, now off to do random stuff on the computer! im addicted to WDX. thats part of why i havent visited sites lately. but i stil got 19 commetns on my last post! thanks guys!

yes, i didnt write again! i have no good excuses, so i'll give you teh real reason: i spent all day on teh comp! when i get done with myo, i went on something called WDX go to magnus lensherr's site, then scroll down all the way to teh bottom and click on the picture of darcia. its totally free to register!

something is wrong with myo my internet browser. alot of posts are pushed way over to the right, rendering them totally illegible. STUPID NEW INTERNET EXPLORER! *kicks it*

today the power flicked. and we watched scary movie two on comedy central. lots of strong language...but it was funny!! it was on late last nioght, so we recorded it... it was a good thing, cause there was girls gone wild commercial every single break! so we jsut fast forwarded through them. so yeah, sadly thats all there is to post about today...tommorrow i will have to mow the lawn again! WTF?! its mowed, my dad jsut wants it shorter! when is he ever out there anyway?! oh well...hopefully he'll forget to wake me up. i woke up today at 1:30 because i went to bed at 3 AM. i woulda kwept sleeping, but it got really hot in my room, so i woke up. anyway...um...i thinks thats all i have to talk about, so yeah, um...questions:

1) on a scale of 1-5 how would you rate my story?

2)anyone ben on WDX?

3)do you carry a pocket knife? ~sometimes, but for no real reason. i jsut lie having something shiney ad sharp to figet with~

back to the story!
sorry i didnt visit anyone yesterday. i was pretty busy. i had to mow the lawn, ansd go to the store with my dad, and write, and all sorts of stuff! plus my dad installed the new internet explorer, so ive been trying to figure that out. but anyway, hers the story!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At ten-thirty, Kaji is watching television in Imaku’s room when he hears a thud outside the door. He gets up to what’s out there and jumps back with a shout when Imaku tumbles headlong through the doorway.
“Okena, you bitch,” he moans, lying face down on the cold floor.
“Training rough?” asks Kaji, suppressing a smile.
“Let’s put it this way: she killed me three hundred and sixty-four times,” Imaku says, his voice muffled by the floor. “I’m one big fuckin’ bruise,” he adds, rolling over with a groan. He just lies on his back, not making a sound for over a minute. Kaji, who has been simply staring down at him, crouches down.
“You still with me buddy?” he asks, lightly tapping Imaku on the chest. Imaku yelps like a kicked dog, then curls up and rolls onto his side. Kaji grabs Imaku’s ankle and drags him into the corner, then leaves him in the fetal position and goes back to watching TV.
Five minutes later, Okena knocks on the door, and then enters the room on her own.
“Hello Kaji, where is Lord Kazemaru?” she asks. Kaji doesn’t acknowledge, but simply points over his shoulder with his thumb. Okena walks over to Imaku’s little corner and rolls him over onto his other side, making him cringe.
“Okena, you sick sadist, I’ll get you for this,” he grumbles.
“Now that’s the spirit!” Okena replies, clapping him on the back with a slightly evil smile. Imaku yelps again, and then lies still, twitching occasionally. Okena rolls him back to his original position and joins Kaji to watch TV.
“How come you two got back so late? Training was supposed to be over at ten,” Kaji asks, still staring at the screen.
“Well, I went back to check on Suki, then escort her to the kitchen to help out with supper. I snuck around back to steal some fried potatoes as well,” Okena says. “I suppose it takes six times longer to get here crawling than it does walking for Lord Kazemaru,” she adds.
“Crawling?! Okena, what’d you do the poor guy? He looks like my dog did after he got fixed!” Kaji shouts.
“Well, my aim was a little off toward the end,” Okena says casually, drawing a look of shock from Kaji.
“You really are sadistic!” he exclaims.
“So I am told,” replies Okena coolly. She gets up and stretches as the ending credits of the show they were watching begin to roll.
“I had better go retrieve Suki now,” she says. She leaves Kaji to continue watching TV and lightly kicks Imaku on her way out, making him groan.
“Same time tomorrow soldier!” she calls, waving over her shoulder. Imaku’s eyes widen and he whimpers like a puppy as Okena walks out the door laughing.

The next day, Imaku returned from training in the same manner.
“How’d it go?” Kaji asks.
“Well,” replies Imaku from the floor. “I managed to stay alive for a full thirty seconds this time.” Kaji drags him back to his corner and lets him rest.

The days progress slowly, as does Imaku. In two weeks, he is finally able to make all the way to his bed before collapsing. In two months, he is almost able to hold is own against Okena, surviving a half-hour and delivering a glancing blow before being killed. Soon he begins to train on his own to build his strength, speed and stamina. He doesn’t know it, but Okena watches him with approval every time.
Three months have passed and Imaku is in the middle of a training session with Okena. He is hiding in a tree behind her and waiting for the opportune moment. He sees her relax a bit, and realizes that this may be his only chance. He leaps from the shadowy branches and lands right behind Okena, his sharpened blade at her throat.
“Now I’ve got you!” he says with a smile. “Payback ti-” He is cut off by the searing pain in his gut. He looks down to see one of Okena’s needles sticking out of his stomach.
“God damn it!” he chokes as he falls to the ground. Soon after he rematerializes elsewhere, his surroundings disappear, leaving just him and Okena in an empty, white space. He blinks and sees the inside of the simulator pod. He throws up the lid and jumps out, seething and frustrated.
“Damn it Okena!” he shouts. “I had you, you bitch!”
“Yes, but you hesitated, maggot. That’s the gravest of mistakes on the battlefield,” Okena replies coldly.
“Alright then, right here! Right now! No weapons!” Imaku yells, throwing down his sword. Okena drops back into a fighting stance without a word and Imaku throws a sloppy punch at her. She ducks down, avoiding it easily, the counters with a rising upper-cut to Imaku’s solar plexus, dropping him to his knees. Imaku clutches his stomach, gasping for air. Okena just walks right by him with a stern expression. She shows no remorse for beating him so badly.
“Next unit is hand-to-hand combat, maggot,’ she says, still cold and distant. Imaku’s eyes widen as she walks away.
“Oh, shit,” he thinks to himself. Things start to get fuzzy and Imaku feels dizzy. He falls onto his side and just lays there.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

poor imaku, he's the other me, so i feel kinda bad doing this to him. oh well! im over it! i forgot, I GOT MY OWN ROOM! my brother moved downstairs! YAY! no more arguing over decoration! ok, so since thats all, i'm gonna go watch eureka 7 now!

chapter 6 part 1
hey guys, another boring day.i talked with my friend on the phone again for another two hours but then the phone died again. any good movies out? ok, heres your story!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thirteen days have passed since Imaku, Suki and Kaji arrived in Giran and life has returned to almost normal. Suki has moved in with Okena and has had some new clothes made for her. She is always either locked in her room or at Okena’s or Imaku’s side. Okena, thought at least three years older than the other three, has become fast friends with them and they spend much of their time together as a group. Kaji, who has moved in with Imaku, is truly fascinated with Giranian technology. Although they lack modern weapons, Giranians have an incredible mastery of electronics and communications and they are even able to pirate television signals from earth. Most of the inhabitants have become accustomed to the presence of humans, though Imaku and Suki bear a distinct hatred of the Yamamaru clan. Okena has been giving them lessons on the customs and etiquette of the three clans as well as the laws of the Alliance. At the moment, all four are in Imaku’s room eating lunch and talking about earth. Imaku is laying flat on his back and staring a the ceiling and only chiming in every now and then
“Wait, so in your world cats are kept as pets?!” Okena asks, sounding shocked.
“Yeah, but they aren’t like the Mizumarus,” explains Suki. “They’re small, have four legs, and don’t speak,” she adds. Okena simply shakes her head as she munches down another French fry. These have been her favorite food ever since Suki taught the chefs how to make them. Suki is often called down to the mess hall to teach them or give advice about earth food, and Okena often follows her in order to get free samples.
“When this is over, we really need to take you down to earth and show you around more,” says Kaji from behind the TV. He is still trying to figure out how they work, but right now he is simply plugging in a videogame console. It has a fighting game similar to “Tekken” or “Soul Caliber” in it. Kaji tosses the controller to Imaku, but Okena intercepts it.
“Let me play! I bet I can take you!” she says with a cocky smile.
“Oh geez…” mumbles Imaku quietly, still staring at the ceiling.
“Alright, but your in my world now! Ninja skills don’t apply,” Kaji says smoothly. They select their characters and the battle starts. Within seconds, it’s over. Okena stare blankly at the screen as she lets the controller fall from her hands. Imaku sits up and snatches it from between her feet, starting another battle without a word. The two are evenly matched and the battle just keeps on going. Okena watches in amazement as they concentrate on the screen and move their thumbs in a blur of motion, setting up spectacular combos and finishing moves. Suki taps her on the shoulder before she is completely lost.
“These two knuckle heads will be at it for hours; lets just go back to our room till they’re done,” she says.
“How do they do that?” Okena asks, standing up. She can’t tear her eyes away from the screen. Suki leads her out of the room by the arm and into the hall.
“Incredible…” Okena says, still awestruck by Imaku and Kaji’s videogame prowess. “How do they do it?”
“Don’t even try to understand them. Guys don’t think,” Suki says, misunderstanding the question.
“They are so good at that because they’re idiots?” Okena asks, sounding a bit confused.
“Yeah, but they’re my idiots,” Suki replies with a sigh and a smile. She starts off down the hall and Okena follows.
The days carry on like this and Imaku begins to grow restless. He has nothing productive to do and it’s beginning to take its toll on him. He has taken to wandering the halls alone and thinking about nothing in particular. It is on one such trip that he runs into Okena. At first he just walks by her, then changes his mind and turns around.
“Hey Okena, can I ask you something?” he says. “I haven’t done anything important since I got here and I’m getting bored. When is anything gonna happen?” he whines.
“Suki’s right, you really are a child,” Okena mumbles under her breath.
“Huh?” asks Imaku, who luckily didn’t quite hear her.
“Never mind. Well you’re in luck, m’lord. I have just received orders that you are to start private combat training with me at seven o’clock sharp tonight!” she says out loud. Imaku’s face brightens up.
“Now that sounds like fun!” he says excitedly. His tail starts wagging and he takes off down the hall, occasionally leaping onto the walls and taking a few steps before coming back down. A mischievous smile creeps onto Okena’s face
“Fun indeed,” she says quietly.

At the appointed time, Imaku shows up at the training hall in sweatpants and a grey tee-shirt. He looks inside and doesn’t see Okena, so he waits. About two minutes later, he spots Okena walking toward him and he waves. She nods, comes and unlocks the door, then turns to Imaku.
“Once we enter this room, I am no longer your friend, but your commanding military officer,” she says officially. Imaku nods and crosses the threshold.
“You’re late, maggot! Drop and give me twenty!” shouts Okena viciously.
“But I-” Imaku starts
“Butts are for crapping!” Okena cuts him off. “Twenty-five!”
“You just said-”
“Thirty!” Okena yells even louder. Imaku gets down on the ground and does thirty push-ups without breaking a sweat.
“I meant sit-ups, maggot!” Okena shouts again. Imaku gets on the ground and does thirty sit-ups with ease, then stands back up.
“Good, we understand each other,” she says in a more normal voice. “Now see those pods over there?” she asks. Imaku nods, now a bit afraid to even speak.
“Those are simulator pods. Your body will feel the effects of every blow and wound. You will physically sustain no wounds or fatal impacts, but there will be bruises, soreness, and fatigue,” she explains, making Imaku look a little worried. “Get in! We’re going to see what you can really do,” Okena says. Imaku reluctantly climbs into the pod as does Okena. Their forms materialize in a forest clearing.
“Okena, I cant figh-” Imaku starts. Before he can finish, three needles thud into his chest and his body falls over onto the ground. Another Imaku materializes and he looks down at his own bleeding corpse. His eyes nearly pop out of his head and the looks back up at Okena.
“What the f-” three more needles hit his chest and his body falls over on top of his other one.
“This is going to be a long three hours,” sighs Okena casually as third Imaku appears. She draws three more needles

chapter 5 part 3
ok, this is my longest chapter yet i think. i had a boring day, so lets just get right to the story.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okena storms out of her younger brother’s quarters, leaving him on the ground with a swollen left jaw and a black eye. Sanki gets back up after she leaves and lays into his punching bag.
“Damn that Kazemaru! Spoiling my plan; I’ll have his head and his girl if it’s the last thing I ever do!” he says emphasizing each word with another blow to the bag. Suddenly he hears a whoosh of air and the bottom half of his back splits open, spilling its contents onto the floor. He starts to turn to see who did this, but before he can even get all the way around, he finds himself pinned up against the wall with his feet kicking wildly. Imaku has his forearm against Sanki’s throat and he’s slowly pressing harder and harder. He draws Sanki’s knife from its holster and lays it across his neck as well.
“You bastard!” he shouts. “I should kill you for what you put Suki through!” he adds through gritted teeth. He’s bristling all over and his eyes have a feral look to them.
“Feh, like you would,” replies Sanki mockingly. “I know what happened in your last fight on the way here. You’re weak!” he adds cockily. Imaku flashes a humorless smile and tightens his hold on Sanki’s windpipe, making him gasp and cough a little.
“Oh yeah? Try me,” he says dangerously. He removes the knife from Sanki’s throat and slowly makes a long, deep cut across the side of his face, making him cringe and struggle. Imaku only presses harder
“Who are you to toy with my friends?!” screams Imaku. “Do you know the hell you put her through?!”
“Of course,” chokes Sanki with a grin. “I had to get her broken in for me,” he continues. Imaku is momentarily dumbstruck, and Sanki almost thinks he’s about to let him down. But then he pull the knife back, cocked ready like a gun. He shoots it forward with a yell and the full intent to pin Sanki to the wall by his neck vertebrae, but something stops his arm. Sanki’s horror-widened eyes close slightly and he breathes an internal sigh of relief. Imaku whirls around, ready to attack whoever is behind him. His expression softens when he sees Okena. Her eyes are begging him to show mercy, though she doesn’t say a word. Imaku nods and takes his arm away from Sanki’s throat, letting Sanki fall to the ground with a thud. He leaves the room without a word.
“That’s right, walk away little boy!” calls Sanki after him. Suddenly the knife flies back and he ducks. He looks up to see the knife sticking into the wall right where his forehead was a mere second ago. His eyes roll back I his head and he falls over into his own puddle with a small splash. Okena looks at him, then at the receding form of Imaku and then at Sanki again. She takes off running after Imaku.
“Lord Kazemaru, please understand that I had nothing to do with this,” she pleads
“I know,” replies Imaku shortly.
“Both Sanki and Kanto will be punished very severely,” she continues, trotting to keep up with his fast walk.
“Good,” he responds.
“Please, my lord, I am truly very sorry,” she says, now sounding upset.
“Doesn’t matter,” Imaku says coldly. Okena stops in her tracks and simply watches as he walks off silently.
Imaku returns to his quarters and unlocks the door. He steps inside and sees Suki sleeping quietly on the bed. He looks sadly at her, eyes full of regret.
“I’m sorry,” he whispers. “I wasn’t strong enough.” He curls up at the foot of the bed like a puppy and falls into a dreamless sleep.

Imaku opens his eyes, hours later, after hearing a knock at the door. He sits up and looks over to see Suki still asleep on the bed and still wearing his clothes. The person at the door knocks again and Imaku gets up. He goes over to his dresser and pulls out a pair of sweat pants. They are just his size. He puts them on and there is a third knock at the door. He opens the door a little bit and looks out.
“Yo, Wolfy!” says Kaji cheerfully. Imaku smiles a little and lets him in.
“Hey, Kaji,” he replies dully. Sits down on a chair and looks around. The room is fairly bare as far as decoration goes. There is the standard furniture: a bed, dresser, chairs and a desk. There are also some lamps and rugs, a wet bar, a fire place and something that resembles a television. Then Kaji spots Suki lying on the bed, wearing Imaku’s clothing and his mind automatically jumps to conclusions. Imaku can tell what he is thinking by the expression on his face.
“Don’t even think it. I don’t need your crap right now,” he says coldly. Kaji is a bit shocked. Imaku has never spoken to him like this before. His face turns serious.
“Alright, tell me what happened,” he says. Imaku looks at Suki, then at Kaji, and then Suki again, and then at the floor. He stares at his feet for a moment, then takes a deep breath and tells Kaji the entire story. He doesn’t remember when happened from the time Kanto started touching Suki to when he started running with her in his arms. When he finishes, Kaji is completely speechless; he doesn’t know what to say. Imaku, too, remains silent, continuing to look at the ground for what seems like an eternity.
“”I was too weak,” he eventually says quietly. He gets up and rests his forehead against the cool metal wall.
“Too fucking weak!” he shouts, punching the fall with all his might. He stays in that position for a while, breathing heavily. He pulls his bleeding fist back and continues to beat the wall, yelling the whole time. He drops his dripping hand to his side and falls to his knees.
“I couldn’t protect her,” he sobs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

if this weer a movie, it'd be rated R for sure. luckily, its a book, so i can make it more graphic without alienating my target audience.
