Me and My Shadow (Ep.1) The Great Awakening

It was just another day in Ami Village. I had slept in, as usual, and I promised Nina I'd help her go look for rare seashells on the beach. When I noticed what time it was, I quickly got dressed, got my lucky dagger, kissed my mom goodbye, and rushed to look for Nina. She was at her house, right next to my house. As usual she was mad at me for being late, but that was the kind of relationship we had. She'd be mad at me for something silly, such as being late, and by the end of the day, we'd be in eachother's arms, watching the sunset over the ocean. However, if I knew that this was the last day we'd ever see eachother, I would have said something different. Well because I was late, she got stuck doing her grandmother's chores for the day. So she told me to go to the beach and start looking, and then she'd meet me there. I'd rather help her finish her chores quicker, but then I remembered that her grandmother resembled a six foot orge, not to mention that she didn't really approve or me spending so much time with her granddaughter, plus Nina wanted me to get a head start because I was late...

to be continued.

Me and My Shadow (Ep.2) Time's Scar

I've always enjoyed the sea, my father used to always tell me "Don't take the sea too lightly. Usually you'll find the sea to be vast, deep... full of strength and energy, yet kind and gentle. But once it becomes angry, it can turn into the most frightening moster you've ever seen, engulfing everything..." My father used to be the best fisherman in Ami Village, that is until that one day, when he left, to sail for an unknown treasure. This treasure, supposedly could give you power that was unimaginable, could grant your every wish. My father said this treasure could set you free, and to this day I sitll don't know what he meant by that. Right before he left he told me this... "Close your eyes and listen... can you hear the cries of countless men swallowed by the sea? The hidden secret the sea whispers? I recommend you to learn the sense the mood of the sea. That's if you don't want to join the fellows already on the bottom." Basically he told me no matter what happened, to not follow after him. And right before he sailed into the distance, he gave me his amulet, which on the back said, "Insanitly leads to choas, then to solitude" That night he went after the treasure, the sea, after being my father's friend for over 10 years, swallowed him in it's storm.

Me And My Shadow (Ep.3) The Point of No Return

"Hey ... HEY, WAKE UP! C'mon, you're suppose to help me look for seashells."

"Huh? Oh sorry Nina I guessed I dozed off again."

"Were you dreaming about me?" Nina asked. I shake my head. "Oh... well what were you dreaming about?"

"... my father... do you remember that day he sailed away?"

"Of course silly, I was there with you to say goodbye to him, ya know you're not the only one who lost a dad from that storm mister."

"Oh that's right, I'm sorry Nina." When my father didn't return that night, Nina's father went after him...

*Flashback*

"He's my best friend, he once saved my life. I owe it to him to find out if he's even still alive." he said.

"No dad no, the storm will kill you too, please don't go out there." Nina cried.

"I promise you, everything will be okay." he said.

*Present time*

"The sea sure is strange huh? Nina said.

"Yeah."

"The sea's been here forever, it's seen many things, heard many things, and made a lot of things happen." Nina said.

"Yeah, I guess, in the end, what came from the sea, has returned to the sea. I just wish I knew if he was okay where he was."

"...I'm sure he is." Nina said.

"I hope you're right."

"Listen there's been something I've wanted to tell you..." Nina said.

"Shadow..." I heard a faint whisper in the midst of the air, and it blocked out what Nina was saying. "Shadow......" I couldn't figure out what it was, but I could fell a strong presence beside me as I stood up.

"What is it?" Nina asked. And before I could say another word, clouds began to form, and a gigantic tidal wave began to shade the beach. I couldn't move, and before the wave engulfed the beach, I fell to the ground, slowly falling unconscience, and the last thing I heard, was Nina's scream of pure terror.

Me and My Shadow (Ep.4) Another Truth

"Shadow, wake up Shadow." I wake up in sort of a daze. Without my fully recovered eyesight, I try to look around. I see a hooded figure but, I couldn't make out anything else around me. However, I knew I was no longer on the beach. "Ah Good, you are awake Shadow, I know you must have a lot of questions to ask but..."

"Where am I? And where's Nina?! Did you hurt her? Cause if..."

"She is safe, she made it to safety, but this is much bigger than Nina, this is about you... and your chosen fate."

"What?! What are you talking about?" The hooded figure slowly removed his hood, revealing to me who he was... Nina's Father. "NO! It can't be, you're alive."

"Hardly, I am cursed in this realm for eternity. To make meaning to my life is meaningless. But you, you are different. You will move over the wind of time, setting sail on dreams. You will live a life that I can only imagine." Suddenly the background shapeshifted into what looked like to be a huge portal. The locks on this portal began to move into the unlocking position, and the last lock, the only thing preventing the portal from opening, gazed into me, and began to pull me forward into the infinite vacuum of my so-called fate. I tried my hardest to resist. But the force just became stronger with every movement of resistance. The force overpowered me, but I still attempted to break free of it. I grabbed Nina's Father's cloak, begging for the slightest hope that he would help. But he continued to leer at me with no remorse. At that moment, I knew it was inescapable, and before I let go, he cired out these few words, of which I will never forget. "Forget you family, forget your friends, forget your world, forget you past, and see what is now...this....is your destiny!"
