Dave's POV

"Strife!" I yelled from the rooftop, me and Bro were getting ready to Strife, and just started, I doged and weeved through strikes, he grazed me once, I almost fell frm the roof twice, but both times Bro had me right back up in the middle,

I glanced at the little man watching, Lil' Cal looked straight ahead, I looked over raising my sword and blocked the srike Bro was sneaking in for, I jumped back letting the rough rooftop stop me not to far back.

Some time into the fight I had an open spot, there, I striked and Bro didn't stop it, wait, oh gog no.... my sword had been pulled from my grasp, "Bro!" he fell almost silently to the rooftops concreat top, his sword almost slowing down with time, clattering to the floor shortly after. I fell with it, I fell to my knees looking over my elder brother,

Alone, Alone......

"no, no no, no this, this is not happening...." I heard breathing hitch, and stop. I had won the battle, the thing is, I didn't want to win, I never did, he was always going to win, always, this should have never happened! Bro would not be dead, if I never came around. Now, with a meteor shower crashing down all around me, I watch as my only brother, lies there, in defeat, the Bro, lost.... and he won't be able to win again.

I'm out on the edge and I'm screaming my name like a fool at the top on my lungs

I go to the edge of the roof and repeat what my mind is yelling at me "WHY DAVE!?" why was I so stupid, now he's gone "BECAUSE OF YOU, DAVE, HE'S DEAD, BRO IS DEAD DAVE!" I was on the verge of tears, I throw my 'shades' on the roof shattering the two darkened lenses, where I'm going, I won't need them. I sit on the edge and look back at all the good times growing up

"here little bro" your first sword, you think back to how your eyes lit up at that first shitty sword, right behind those pointy little shades were the brightest eyes you've ever had, they were like little car lights, another skip, first strife, also you met Lil' Cal, little you was always the one to be thinking about himself, that look, that sly smile, that first strife was fun.....

You were snapped out of your thoughts by the sound of glass being refixed, you turn around and there are your shades, Lil Cal moved..... you thank the little guy and look back off the side of the building, nothing......

You look back to Bro, and look down at the game, you run down to your room to play the game "Bro would have wanted you to, do it for Bro..."

=======================THE GAME==============================================

Here you are, Knight of Time, with your 3 friends, Jade, Witch of Space, Rose, Seer of Light, and John, Heir of Breath. You are looking down at your symbol and see something strange, you notice Rose had gone to hers, and Jade was going to, you go look and see

wait, Bro!??! No it can't be, but those Shades, the hair, the sword, it must be him! You speed up twords the figure, he looks about your age, he turns around "Bro...." you both say in onison, you look amazed at the boy, "I-'m Dave" you almost stutter, he returns the favor "Dirk, you look a lot like my Bro..." he is thinking outloud, "you look like mine, wait Last name" you both stutter out "Strider"

shit, wait, why am I worried, it's Bro, but my age, awesome. I think this might just make up for the loss......

Get to see your face again.......

once again.....
