Close your eyes and try and picture your idea of a perfect ending. Think of all the loose ends tied together in firm knots, holding everything steady and in its place. Now open your eyes to see the hands of fate twisting and untying these knots.   Watch as the ribbons unravel. Watch and wonder as they separate and spill out onto the floor, each end landing in its own unique place. You thought it was over, but you were wrong.  It is far from over.  This story is just beginning. The characters, whom you thought had their fates sealed tight, their lives are only beginning. And yes, I do mean everyone. &#

Square one. ■ It had been more than 2 months since I’ve confessed how I feel about Pucca, and ever since then I thought our relationship would be all uphill from here, but, well….. Ever since she found out that I secretly liked her all along, she’s been even more clingy than ever before! Now I’m just right back where I started. Running from love. I knew I wasn’t ready. I’m such an idiot. As my feet continue to hit the asphalt, with every step, I’m pushed closer and closer to the edge. One of these days… No.  I can’t let myself think that way. I love her.  I would n

There he was. Right within my reach and yet, so far away. I had my heart set on him for over two years, and now he was mine. Or.. was he? Now that I know that he’s secretly liked me all along, and every time he ran from me and tried to avoid my love, deep down he only wanted me even more. So I guess in his world, the sky is orange, everyone walks on their hands, and babies grow on trees. That doesn’t make much sense either… But who cares anyway?  Nothing needs to make sense anymore in this world, because right now, my mind is running on one, and only one track: GaruGaruGaruGaruGaruGaruGaruGaruGaruGaruGaruGaruG

Garu ran all the way home, locked the doors and fell right onto his bed, which must have hurt, considering his "bed" was only a few blankets and a pillow on a hard wood floor, but Garu didn’t care.  He had WAY too much on his mind.  Like the fact that the girl that had always seemed to annoy the heck out of him was about to be gone. Forever.  But there was something that scared him even more than that, like the fact that he actually cared.  Suddenly, he was starting to see Pucca in a different way than he ever did before.  Just the other day, she was the creepy, annoying stalker who he co

All Garu could think about that day was that horrible dream.  One minute holding her close, then the next watching her slip away from him.  The image of her face kept popping into his head, and he began to feel choked up. No, he thought to himself, no, don’t cry.  I’m far too tough to let tears fall down my cheeks. Ninjas don’t cry.. ninjas don’t cry.. Pretty soon, he began saying it out loud to himself; "Ninja’s don’t cry.. ninjas don’t cry.. ninjas don’t.." "Cry?" Her voice made him jump.  As usual, she was outside the window of his house, waiting for him to

Tobe paced back and forth in his lair. "So," he said menacingly, "still think your precious Garu is going to come save you now?" "I..I…" Pucca wanted to say, ‘Of course I do!  Because I know he cares about me!’  But somehow, she wouldn’t have been able to believe herself.  "..I don’t know." Tobe laughed out loud.  When he realized he was the only one laughing, he glared over at his silent ninjas, and they all began to laugh loudly and nervously. "Of course he’s not coming to save you!  In case you haven’t noticed, he can’t even stand to be around you

 Garu nervously stood in the middle of the field, for he knew he was in danger.  He peered over his shoulder, knowing that this danger could strike any given second.  He had to watch his back at all times, knowing that if he lacked attention, he could be attacked from any corner.  Luckily, Tobe and his pitiful ninjas were far from this site, but there was something worse than Tobe.  Way  worse.  Something that had stricken fear through Garu's body since the day he had crossed paths with this horrible fear.  This horrible fear was... "OH GARU!!" A shadow leered over him an

Garu couldn’t sleep that night.  He kept thinking about how he had hurt Pucca in some way, but how?  Just then, it finally hit him.  Garu knew just then what she was getting at when she asked about who he saw in his future: she meant herself!  But Garu had completely ignored that, which was a sign to her that he doesn’t care about her at all!  But, he doesn’t even care about her.. or does he? Not only can Master Soo control the weather and time, but he can also see into the future.  Tired and frazzled, Garu went to Master Soo first thing in the morning.  

Later, Garu woke up to find himself lying on the floor in the kitchen of the Goh Ryong.  In a blur, he could see Linguini and Uncle Dumpling in front of him. "Garu!" exclaimed Uncle Dumpling, "you’re finally awake! You gave us quite a scare young man!" "Ohh.." Garu rubbed his aching head. "Well, Ho, it looks like we aren’t going to need your assistance after all." Ho let out an "Aww.." and cooled his frying pans. "We have a visitor for you Garu." Said Linguini. "Wha.." replied Garu, still feeling very dizzy. "Garu!" He knew that voice.  It was the voice that had haunted him to this day.  It was

Garu stared down at her lifeless body, and he felt guilty for not returning her feelings before it was too late.  Now she was gone. Another strong bolt of lightning crashed, and it began to rain.  Garu set down his soon-to-be-ex girlfriend, and pulled himself to his feet.  The lightning struck again, and his ponytails came undone, letting his long hair fall down and cover his face. Tobe regained his consciousness and grabbed his sword.  He knew this was going to be a harsh battle. Garu pushed his hair back, revealing his face. "You." "Yes, me. Tobe smiled mischievously. "You monster!! Look what you
