  <title>its stereotypical... NOT!</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/42470.html</link>
  <description>I recently discovered the game, &quot;Devil May Cry 4&quot; after my little brother bought the CD and installed it in the PC. after seeing him play it, (all the damn cool cut scenes, cockiness and all out adrenaline rushes) i decided to play too. oh, big surprise, i got hooked. so i decided to further my little obsession and began researching about it. i know that the game had three predecessors, with Devil May Cry 3 being the best of the trio, i also know that Dante, the lead character for all three games, still ranks third in a long list of favorite gaming characters. aside from that, i also discovered an anime and two light novels (the author is &quot;supposedly&quot; still working on the third) once the said novel was available at the local bookstore, i had to have it (which, of course, i did)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so the line between male and female blurred. (i mean come on people, the line had officially disappeared when straight guys began wearing pink.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apparently no one told my gay friend about it, coz a few weeks after my discovery of DMC, i began polluting my male classmate&apos;s minds (or what&apos;s left of the male population) with probably one of the coolest male heroes to step up and literally blow up the competitors.&lt;br /&gt;we, me and the guys, huddled and began talking about it (i had lent them the cd and manga) excitedly, about the devious hero, his awesome weapons and well, his dastardliness. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my gay friend then, in a very feminine manner, let out a loud gasp and said,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Patty, anu man yan!!!?? dapat barbie and pag usapan mo!!!!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i replied, &quot;i used to behead her a lot.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He said, &quot;well, i have an altar all just for her!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, needless to say, our little &quot;boys time&quot; was put on severe hold because our lungs couldn&apos;t hold anymore air after that and most of us were left staring at him with most probably huge eyes of disbelief.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it&apos;s pretty funny that society still has this ever blurring line called STEREOTYPING, i mean, it is the 21st century people, no man, woman, child and all else in between should be forced to submit under its ebbing whims.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;another funny example was when i sketched a .45 desert eagle. you know, just to get an idea of its basic shape and anatomy (the usual) then i went over to my dad and asked him about it, asked him to identify the gun. (just for fun)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;he began a long tirade of the different bullets to be loaded in a pistol and the difference between an automated and non-automated gun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so i went to my mum who could only say, &quot;its a .45 pistol!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;which was right, but no one had still guessed it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i went on dropping clues saying that it was heavy, made in Israel, is gas propelled and needed unique bullets. it also happened to be my favorite gun (i mean come on, compared to Sanzo&apos;s smith and Wesson, this baby&apos;s got more kick!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my brother took one look at the picture and said, &quot;45 caliber desert eagle&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then my dad, after five seconds reacted, &quot;trisha, why are you drawing guns? you should be drawing... dolls, flowers!!! why are you drawing guns?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i just laughed and said, &quot;dad, it&apos;s the 21st century, get over it!&quot;</description>

  <description>hmmm seven weeks huh? how come i always tend to update on  every seventh that presents itself to me? how queer... anyway, a new story that i;ve been working on, i had started working on it on new year&apos;s day of &apos;09 and it&apos;s been progressing quite well i&apos;m afraid. hehehe anyway here it is, read it and i hope you enjoy evil presentations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Grave Master originally started 1/1/09&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Back in the olden days in England, cemeteries were always filled to the brim, and what with poverty setting in, people tend to loot through the corpses’ valuables for a bit of money. Because of the rampant rise of grave robbing, the Queen decided to appoint five families to act as Grave Masters, or as guards to defend graves against these robbers. However, unbeknownst to most people in old England, grave robbers weren’t the main reason for this sudden act. England in olden times was not only plagued with drugs, disease and crime, but also of benevolent spirits and violent hauntings. Grave Masters were then, families who worked in England’s underground with knowledge of the Dark Arts. These families have then, for generations, Guardians of both the dead and undead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Appointed Clans&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lych/Lyke- the clan who said mingled with demons and produced disfigured half breeds, though their children are shown to be handsome and or beautiful. They are one of the best Grave masters around because of their demon blood. The clan possesses wide knowledge and abilities known only to demons. They also carry a scythe as a weapon against humans. Aside from this, they carry a Lamp that may contain summoned souls. The Lych clan takes to their jobs seriously and usually finishes whatever there is needed to do, earning a reputation as being infallible. However, they generally dislike company and are usually unruly, rude, and blunt and described as “unable to properly socialize with any living object” however, they are incredibly charming when the need calls for it. They are incredibly weak against holy water-it causes their demon blood to freeze up and they kind of go into shock.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anglican- a strict catholic clan who trains most of their children to be either nuns or priests, they seem to have a love-hate relationship with the Lych clan. The Anglican clan received its name from the church and is known as its advocates, even if the dirty jobs fall on their shoulders. They have an incredibly firm belief that everything they do is God’s will, which sometimes makes them “Dolls” in the eyes of other people. They have a bad habit of not questioning their orders and superiors and are usually quiet and work behind the shadows. Their love hate relationship with the Lych clan began a long time ago due to strange circumstances-it seems that the hatred stems more In genetic states rather than conscience. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pestis- a clan known for utilizing the powers of plagues. It is said that they are basically immune to all types of disease. Because of their specialty, they usually are called “Wraiths” as they patrol the grave yards with long torn black cloaks. Parts of their bodies are usually deformed, usually the arms and hands as they use these limbs to wield their deadly poisons. They can also inject disease via saliva or even through biting. They are extremely deadly people, and though their lifespan is short and their bodies cremated, they are numerous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cock Robin (robin hood)- a clan of thieves who, though have no connection with the other world, have made rescues and escapes from death itself. They have no name and were christened as such since most members die by a bow and arrow. Aside from that, they are the only ones who wield a variety of guns and various types of ammunition, they also wield Soul Sealers, special guns that immediately implode any undead in one blast-the gun is incredibly large and heavy, making it un-wieldable for normal humans, but the Robin’s clan have been trained to wield such in various circumstances and are sure shots. This gun is also said to have a limited number of bullets, since creation of the ammo has to be on the red moon, which comes every millennium. To compensate, they use bullets that are made of holy silver-which takes a longer time to destroy but works just as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Virgil- a clan who was said to have entered the nine levels of hell and lived. Their heir is a known brat, though incredibly powerful. This clan utilizes the souls of demons and undead that they have encountered in their travels in the nine circles of hell. Known as the “Reapers”, this clan stays true to its name as it mercilessly reaps any souls lingering around after death to power-up their abilities. They are incredibly interested in the Lych clan as their souls are neither full demons nor full humans, capturing one soul would ultimately power up their weaponry/ abilities for a very long time. They are incredibly eccentric and though they own various houses in various locations, the clan is hidden in some secret area that is hardly accessible. Without any souls, the clan is usually vulnerable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the story of the third son of the five children of the Lych Clan, who, unbeknownst to the other clans carry a larger portion of demon heritage in his being; hence, he is more demon than human. Unlike the disciplined Lych heirs, Cevyl Lych is incredibly devilish and rebellious in more ways than one. However, as the story trails his antics it is revealed what a demon and what it really means to be human is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cevyl Lych- trained harshly in the ways of a Grave master, he was chosen amongst five other siblings because of his immense powers. However, he is incredibly rebellious and hard headed, and though he has earned his right to take the title as grave master, his father delayed it until he turns twenty (or at least to his senses) it seems though that Cevyl inherited more of the demon’s side rather than the human side, as he wears leather bands as seals to effectively suppress his demonic powers. When the bands are removed or destroyed, he turns into a demon. Aside from that, half of his powers are effectively sealed by the tattoo on his arms as well. However it is shown that his left arm does not bear a tattoo which is then used against the supernatural or human harassment. He is also equally skilled in wielding the scythe that may also be used as a large hook to capture and drag opponents down. Usually seen bearing headphones that are infused with his demonic powers, grants him the ability to “listen” to thoughts (though he really never cares for it) and carrying the large scythe that his clan is known for. Like his previous ancestors, he is prone to holy water and usually falls into coma when drenched in it. However, when this happens, his demon side usually surfaces and regains control of the body.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nan Lych- Cevyl’s older sister by three years. She is, in her own right, capable of being Grave master, but since there can only be one who bears the title, she trains herself constantly to exceed Cevyl-something bordering to an obsession. However, she can never surpass her brother because she only possesses an inkling of the demon blood. Nan however, has the ability to wield spells, usually healing spells that she uses to aid the townsfolk. Instead of being known as the next Grave Master, she is known as the Village Healer. But since their father has not yet given the title to her brother, she believes she will one day have a chance to gain that title for herself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Christopher “Topher” Lych- the oldest of the siblings. He has, for some reason disappeared. He was actually Colt’s first choice as the heir, but Topher ran away from his responsibilities without any information as to where he went. Before his disappearance, he was Cevyl’s idol and he was known to be a great Grave Master. There is some debate as to the cause of his disappearance which can be led to the Virgil Clan. No information can be gathered from his because most his records were burned after his disappearance. The only remaining record of him is a family picture that is next to his father’s bed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Callie Lych- the second older brother of the five siblings, while his mother was busy tending to his younger siblings and his father off with Topher, he trained himself in doing the house chores-because of this, he is the motherly-type. He is, unlike his ancestors’ naïve and innocent to almost everything to the point of sheer ignorance (in a way, he cannot be let out on his own as other people might take advantage of him-so he isn’t fit to live in society). He has an intense love of life and prefers to be away from graveyards. Colt always tells him that he is like his mother. Callie works at a restaurant in town, where Cevyl always goes to get free meals. He is a great cook. However, unbeknownst to most people, he has enough demonic power and ability in him to take over the title of Grave Master. As basic demon powers go, he has the ability to control fire, but since he hasn’t been fully trained to utilize it, the extent of his powers are yet unknown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nema Lych- the youngest of the five siblings. Unlike most of her kin, she is still a baby and is usually hanging around with Cevyl in graveyards or can be found in Callie’s restaurant or at home. However, she shows signs of her powers even at a young age- such as her strength. However, there is one strange peculiarity about her that she seems to be able to use holy powers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Colt Lych- the father and previous Grave Master, he has settled down and been raising his family, grooming his brood for the next heir. It is said that his abilities have exceeded most of his ancestors and he was known for patrolling up to two or more graveyards. However, Colt is also different from his ancestors because he is rowdy, lax and overconfidently cocky. His attitude is incredibly passed to his son, Cevyl, whom he, after a series of strange events, picked to be the next heir. He still is considered the Grave Master though because he has not given the title to his children. Before meeting his wife, he was said to be a ruthless Grave Master who always thought of himself as a demon and not a human.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neine Lych-a human who became the wife of the Grave Master Colt Lych. She loved Colt even though he was a half demon and bore him five children-dying after giving birth to the youngest. Neine was a tough girl and always fought duels with Colt back when they first met-and surprisingly enough she always won. She discovered later that Colt was half demon and a Grave Master and only used a third of his strength so he would not hurt her. From then on, both loved each other dearly and were married. She was said to be the prettiest lady in the village-and Callie seems to have taken to her beauty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Angela Anglican- the daughter and Grave Master of the Anglican clan, she is currently eighteen years old and has been living in a convent for the most of her life. Upon hearing that the Lych family was still unsure of the title’s heir, she was designated by the church to take the graveyard under the Lych clan’s care. Much to her annoyance, her ideals are questioned and insulted by the brash Cevyl, which in turn activates her genetically programmed hatred of him. Later it is shown that all Grave Masters of the Anglican Clan were exact replicas of the original Anglican Grave Master, which explains the genetic hatred for the Lych clan. Angela knows of the clan’s weakness as it was passed from her mother to her-though how exactly isn’t confirmed seeing as Anglican mothers die after giving birth to the female heir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pariahs Pestis- unlike most of his ancestors, Pariahs is considered the God of the dead, because his body parts are made up of different corpses-infused only with various drugs and bacteriae to be able to function normally. He is horribly disfigured and is usually seen behind the shadows. It can be seen that his limbs are sewn from various pther creatures, his left hand seems to come from a demon and the right seemed to belong to a large reptile of some sort. Because of his inhuman appearance, he never made friends, till he met Cevyl of course.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Robert Robin- like all his other ancestors, Robert is an expert in handling bows and arrows and things that include trickery and deceit, he is, however, loyal to the family code and to his title as Grave Master. Unlike other Grave Masters who have issues with each other, he is a carefree person who is only happy when there are fights. He is skilled in combat as well as in acrobatics. He takes no sides in disputes and looks only after his own interests.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allen Vergil- like most of his predecessors, Allen hopes to steal a soul from the Lych clan and is usually seen hovering around Lych territory after an intense battle. Usually he just sits and observes but on some occasions, when his “precious” is too weakened, he will come to aid. Allen however is treacherous and cunning, he will betray and switch sides if it suited his needs, but more than once, has always proved his loyalty. He is a good-looking lad at 18 and uses an array of summoning techniques in battle. Usually his summonses are of darker creatures unknown to man and some are even artificially created with their knowledge gained in the nine rings of hell.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bounty Hunters&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Larkin Van Helsing – like his predecessors, was a man of great knowledge, courage, and strength and of heart. He a fierce bounty hunter, but kind and was never despised for his job. However, he strangely enough, he married into a family of vampires. After his child was born however, he took the infant and ran off to raise the child on his own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amelia Van Helsing- the Vampire wife of Lark, who gave birth to a human child. To protect both mortals, she told Lark to take the child before she would kill it- as vampires would.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adam Van Helsing- the descendant of the great Abraham Van Helsing. Unlike his predecessors, Adam is not entirely merciless; in fact, his reputation as a Van Helsing precedes him, literally-as did the reputation of his father-Larkin Van Helsing. He is in fact kind to those who cannot be classified as monsters in his heart. Because of this, it is a known secret that a Vampire covets him dearly. At 16 he is the youngest bounty hunter in the area of London. Unbeknownst to him, he carries within a half of the vampire blood because his father married a female vampire. As weapons, he uses two handguns and an automated crossbow in the shape of a cross&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vampires&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Azrael- the oldest, out of ten, of the vampire brood after Dracula’s descendants. He covets Adam after the human risks his own life to protect Azrael’s then young brother, Berial, from an unruly band of humans. He is a brooding sort of vampire who, though used to drink human blood, stopped entirely just for the human Van Helsing. Incredibly powerful and he has lived for over a thousand years-because of this, he can survive without the blood of humans. He can be quite old fashioned and gentlemanly. His kind are called the “Keepers of Time” and he can be seen writing history when not busy searching for the young Van Helsing. In one episode, he brought home the  human to introduce to his family as his chosen mate-this produced hilarious effects and is not known whether it was a joke or otherwise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Caim- he is the ninth Vampire of the brood who happens to have a strong attachment to Callie Lych. He can usually be seen escorting the Lych child home as he has done so since they first met. Like his older brother, he has stopped his consumption of blood, but because he is young, he replenishes his strength by eating human food-which does little to help. He is usually seen hanging upside down on nearby trees when the Lych family is of concern. Unlijke most vampires, Caim works as an informant to the queen-though he doesn’t see himself as a “Dog” of sorts as he comes and goes as he pleases. Unlike his older brother, Caim has a rough and tumble attitude similar to Cevyl, which makes them great friends. Later in the story, he succeeds in becoming a full fledged Vampire after taking Callie’s blood in order to protect the boy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Berial- the youngest of the vampire brood, unlike his nine older brothers, he is still young and is in his 100th year. As stated, a Vampire can only be a true Vampire when he drinks the blood of a human-his first kill-after which he will be able to withstand what half vampires are weak against, such as crucifixes and garlic etc. a year ago, Berial was blamed and hunted down by villagers who thought he was responsible for their livestock-he was then rescued by Adam Van Helsing-who proved the band wrong. Berial appears to be a young child and is great friends with Nema.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Demons&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Asher- a demon who is said to be the “Guardian” of the Lych clan. He appears one night and challenges Cevyl for the right to the Grave Master title. He, like Cevyl, is incredibly bad ass-but where Cevyl’s temper flares, he remains cool-he has the bark and the bite to back up his cockiness. He has been known to test out the heirs of the Lych clan whether they are worthy of the title or not. Now he tests Cevyl-who unfortunately, fails-but after unleashing the child’s own demon half-he is defeated. Of course, according to unwritten laws, he is still unworthy since he utilized his demon side rather than fight with his own strength. Asher or Ash-as he is preferably called- has ashen colored hair and is said to be cursed. Colt says that Ash has been around for hundreds of years, but he was only just about two years older than Cevyl. After their bout, Ash appears constantly as a companion to Cevyl or as a rival looking for a spar. Though he is incredibly more powerful than the Lych child.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**Note: Demons and Vampires hate each other as Vampires see demons as Barbarians-the total opposite of their educated selves. Vampires often look down on demons due to this&lt;br /&gt;***Note: white usually is the symbol for all things good-so it is a curse when a demon happens to be born with white hair and eyes.</description>

  <description>today was our enrollment day, and well, i was happy, I&apos;d be doing something productive (aside from working on other stories) and i&apos;d get to meet my college friends again. i was very happy to have met david, ira and yen yen again as well... okay, i was also glad to see carl again, i mean we haven&apos;t been seeing much of each other (he&apos;s in the Monday group and i am in the thursday group of Duty-yeah we&apos;re spectrums away). i missed them a lot, and we got into a little circle and talked fun stuff. it felt nice. like you could talk to anything with them around&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i even watched a couple of stand-up comedian videos on carls&apos; laptop.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;which of course made people stare at me as if i was crazy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;carl pointed that out, &quot;uhh, patty, i think you better stop laughing coz people are staring&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Screw them&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, after enrollin,g me and carl went to find a gift for yen yen, something about a wallflower nadeshiko, whatever that means. well, that meant a trip to the DVDs somewhere next to the mall. anyway, we were just chatting and walking when a street kid approached me. if it were a normal street kid, it&apos;d have been fine, but this one was different, you know the ones who ask you for money only to gamble it away? those kinds of people&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;note to you people, i DO NOT like to be confronted with these people, i hear they spit at you or even threaten to harass you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so i ran away (and almost got hit by a car while doing it) and said street kid pursed me like i was prey and i heard that annoying sound, the sound you make when you want to spit, a gargling sound. immediately, instead of running away, i turned around, faced her and yelled, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;nangita ka ug away?!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and this happened in the middle of the street facing the mall, at about 10:00 in the morning&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;of course she just laughed at my silliness and said in whatever language that she knew i wouldn&apos;t because there were police officers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and she spat on teh floor and walked off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then carl appeared next to me and said, &quot;wow, i never knew you would pick a fight with a kid&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;yeah well, i&apos;m not thoroughly evolved.&quot; i grumbled, tucking my ID into my bag&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;people were staring and i thought about pretending not to know you, but then, you&apos;d need me anyway.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;yeah, well, she tried to spit at me.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;ohhh&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;how&apos;s that for &apos;evolved&apos;?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now, i don&apos;t know if i should be persecuted for this, but it&apos;s pretty freaky to be hunted down by a child and spit at. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hmmm &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i&apos;ve become more of a devil than i thought.</description>

  <title>STORY!!!!</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/41018.html</link>
  <description>hey guys, yes, i&apos;m gonna post another long story that&apos;ll occupy space, demanding you to read it! hehehehe were you able to read the one i posted last time? about Azrael and Riel? hehhe just check the previous accounts... hehehe i know you can;&apos;t possibly live here to check my entries. it&apos;s okay. here it goes!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Necromancer&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Necromancy has been a long forgotten art of summoning the most pure type of magic used for divinations and for summoning kind spirits for aid. However as time moved, the gentler spirits were overruled by darker and more menacing spirits-and they prefer to live nearer to humans, thus sometimes, upsetting the natural balance of yin and yang. Centuries later, into the Renaissance, necromancy therefore became more focused on summoning the dark and evil spirits, and performing gruesome rituals and acts that was thought to be unspeakable and was henceforth banned today. But that does not stop some gifted people to practice necromancy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is Reiss, he has the ability to perform necromancy and is said that he is the most powerful of all the necromancy clans. However, instead of utilizing extensive summoning rituals and offering blood sacrifices and demon pacts, Reiss can perform necromancy by using his voice-most especially is he’s singing. It turns out that Reiss’ voice is so pure, that all spirits are ultimately attracted to it, even if Reiss is just speaking. Of course, these causes a lot of trouble, even for his family members-who though are equally skilled at necromancy, are no way as powerful as Reiss! Therefore, subduing the attracted spirits become a daily routine and sometimes become a tiring nuisance, that they forced Reiss into a muzzle so that he could not speak or sing or anything at all! This event greatly traumatized him so he never talks anymore. Their clans are particularly well known in their area and they know of Reiss’ abilities, but they are incredibly scared of him as well, so he has no friends whatsoever. And with his ability to talk placed on hold, he cannot even properly communicate with people anymore, hence everyone sees him as a weirdo, or someone to be feared. Reiss, however, takes after his mother, who was not a necromancer, but someone outside the clan, therefore, Reiss should not have gotten the powerful share of the family blood. Reiss’ mother was a kind woman who loved taking care of everyone, even the daily ghosts and demons who came to their doorstep, even though she could not see them, she could sense them, and although it might seem silly, actually invited them to tea- some clan members speculate that it is because the demons and ghosts favor Reiss due to his mother’s kindness. Reiss is also a kind person, he treats the ghosts and demons he accidentally summons as his friends and playmates-in turn, the spirits seem to take a liking to his purity (in a sense that he was not willing to cast judgment upon them as to whether they were bad or good spirits and treated them all fairly.) at eighteen years of age, he has become a subdued person, who can still sense spirits and see them, but he does not speak anymore and merely offers up his kindness to them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This event however, does not bode well to the other clans who believe that Reiss’ voice is a seal that prevents other evil spirits from re-awakening. And true to their beliefs, Reiss’ voice essentially, in itself, a seal that lulls more powerful demons into a dream like trance that could last for years if the voice is continuous. However, because of the sudden halt of the essence of purity the voice resonates, it awakens from the seal one of the most powerful demons known to all necromancers and feared by all, the great Naberius [nebiros] &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In modern times, there are five known necromancy clans, forming a pentagram by occupying the four directions and one in a neutral direction to balance the yin and yang. The most famous clan is the Lion clan that happens to “own” most of the powerful dark sprits-something which is rather fitting since lions were used to guard gates and temples during the ancient times from any form of evil. Crane-representing life after death, the closest thing to ho-oh or the phoenix, the wolf clan, something akin to the harbingers of death, the serpent, symbolizing temptation and one of the most barbaric practitioners of the clans as they still use blood sacrifices, and finally, the Qilin, the equalizer of all clans. It is rare that the equalizer clan step up and intervene-as it is not in its nature to interfere with the makings of destiny. Each clan has their own heirs and does not branch out-so the clans are, individually, incredibly large, from siblings to cousins and relatives of unknown degrees. For the clan blood to remain ultimately pure, they have practiced intermarriage for years. Each clan is autonomous and all of them differ in techniques and abilities concerning necromancy, but one thing is certain, the clans do not interact with each other because they are too closed minded to accept different things. There was only one time ever, in necromancy history that the clans united, and that was the time of the “Great Sealing”- wherein the more powerful and uncontrollable creatures were sealed away into a space-time continuum. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eurynomos is the king of Hades and was therefore sealed in double barriers to prevent his re-awakening, but after the sudden re-awakening of Naberius, he is slowly stirring within the seals as well. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Characters:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reiss- he is eighteen years old and currently the most powerful necromancer known to man kind, though he does not belong to any clans as his father married someone outside the clan-therefore he was disowned. However, because of his mother’s death, and his outstanding necromancy abilities, the clans have decided to keep watch over him, they set up a house somewhere between the four points for easy access-and that’s where Reiss has been kept for as long as memory serves him. He is not deprived from school and goes to a university somewhere near his area-however, he cannot or refuses to talk, and because of his well-known powers, he is often bullied and teased. Reiss is generally kind to everyone, even to the ghosts that hover near him in a desperate effort to try and help him. He has the “bell of the universe” a pure voice that carries a peaceful and pure resonance that can calm even the worst of spirits if used properly by any necromancer. This kind of ability is extremely rare and it gives the owner the ability to summon any ghost or spirit to do his bidding and thus tossing aside any need for rituals and such. However, because this may, as some clan members believe, upset the balance of yin and yang by gathering too much ghosts in one area, they have actually muzzled him when he was younger so no spirit could hear him anymore. This event traumatized him so greatly that he “lost” his voice. Since Reiss does not belong to any clans, there is some contemplation as to make him the heir of one of the clans due to his amazing abilities at necromancy. Later Naberius gives him the power to speak with his mind-allowing him to finally be able to communicate with other necromancers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Naberius [Nebiros]- the most powerful demon that was sealed second to Eurynomos. He awakened because the “bell of the universe” stopped ringing- as his seal is said to be sustained by the sound of the bell. Nebiros is feared by all clan members, his powers are so incredibly great that if he is set free, death is said to follow his wake. Contrary to belief however, Nebiros is an extremely cultured demon who is incredibly good at rhetoric, is quite adept in science and most arts and is often returning people’s lost possessions or dignity/honors, he is also an incredibly good general, commanding nineteen legions of demons, but he never really cared for ruling the world or anything, his voice is hoarse and he is able to turn into a dog, a crow or a black crane. Aside from these abilities, he is also extremely proficient in necromancy and prediction. But he is eloquent and gentlemanly in his behavior, something rare in demons. It was said that he fell in love with an angel, made a pact with the seraphim and vowed not to hurt humans, thus allowed himself to be sealed by the necromancy clans. However, he can be extremely barbaric when he wants to be-which is why the necromancy clans fear him. Because of his high rank in Hades, most spirits/ghosts/demons do not dare go near him, for fear of being destroyed. He is always encouraging Reiss to talk and protecting him from the other clan members who always, in some points, maltreat him. In a way, he has become Reiss’ Demon partner as he is the only one who “listens” to Reiss’ unheard voice. He sometimes starts one-sided conversations with Reiss-though he uses his psychic abilities to listen to Reiss’ thoughts. Though he is adamant in everything he does, he has his principles-“I am owned by none and I own nothing” meaning, he chooses and does whatever he pleases. However, he seems to be a bit fearful of Eurynomos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aries [Ey-reese]- he is the heir to the Lion clan and therefore possesses one of the powerful, though lesser ranking demons. He is cruel to his demon partner and can be brutal even to the point of hurting his summons. Cold and calculating, he is his father’s pride because of his heartlessness. Because the Lion clan is the strongest of all necromancy clans, they have a reputation for brutality and more often than not, most of the clan members die young due to unexplained deaths-because it is believed that the clan relies on their necromancy strengths so much that the males fight to be the rightful heirs to the clan. (something akin to the lion killing everyone to get his way to be the king of the pride) when he meets Reiss, he at first, plans to rid of him because Reiss may prove to be a strong contender for the heir of the Lion clan-however his plans are foiled by the powerful Nebiros who, in a strange moment, becomes dastardly evil and kills Aries’ summons. Retreating, he has taken a new and stronger summons-albeit it’s ranking, again is lower than Nebiros. Although he declares that he will destroy Reiss, he has been living in the other boy’s home to “observe” how his necromancy abilities fare. In turn, he loses albeit if not most, of his hostility during his stay and begins to regret things he has done. He apparently killed his two older brothers and a younger cousin for the position of Clan heir-and although it was in self defense, it had turned him into the heartless being because it was what his father wanted of him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hawke- he hails from the Crane clan, as his name suggests. He is off handed and silly in his approach as the next heir and is strangely the eldest of four siblings. Aside from his goofy and fun loving personality, he is the strongest in their clan and can summon by merely writing symbols in the wind (since the Crane controls most of the air-element spirits) and also has the ability to summon creatures that deviate from the wind element-something unique only to him-making him as incredible asset to the clan. Hawke also utilizes the power of the sky, thus, he is able to see from a bird’s point of view. He is the target of the jealousy of his two younger brothers who are incredibly taller than him. He runs away into Reiss’ house to avoid all the anger his brothers redirects at him unconsciously and sometimes says that he wishes he never was the heir, because he cares more about his brothers than some stupid family name. When he reaches the Reiss household, he is ecstatic to meet Reiss who is younger than him, but upset at finding out that the great necromancer is mute-though he sometimes thinks that Reiss is dumb, much to the other boy’s chagrin &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rome- he is from the wolf clan. And unlike all his siblings who seem to carry animalistic traits of the wolf, Rome is ultimately tender hearted and kind, naïve and the youngest in the entire clan, his mother loves to baby him (although he’s 18) and he is always protected because he is clumsy-something unusual in the wolf clan. But even though he seems to be the most useless of all the wolf clan heirs, he bears with him the “Hunter’s Eyes” the special summons symbol is in his eyes, plus, his eyes are the only ones that are golden and bearing this sign-with this, he is able to call his summons wherever and whenever. Because of this ability, he is the next heir to the wolf clan. But instead of accepting the responsibility, Rome runs away and hides out in Reiss’ place until he finds out what he really want to do with his life. He immediately takes a shine to Aries, who, even though cold hearted, seems to emanate a strong aura that appeals to Rome. It is said that he has ten brothers and four older sisters and his dad is incredibly huge-like a giant! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mitsuki-he’s from the snake clan, and he’s incredibly creepy! His clan is known for being the goriest of the entire clans, what with them offering blood sacrifices and the like-Rome always fears him as he smells like blood. He’s kind of a sadist and uses the normal way of summoning, though he draws the symbol with his blood. His hands are extremely callused and he is pale, he is known for fainting whenever and he is a narcoleptic, especially after he eats food. He is always seen wearing a black cloak and loves sun-bathing-though his skin is always pale (akin to extreme pallor) and clammy. He loves to mistreat people badly and is incredibly intelligent enough to know how to confuse people; he almost got Reiss to use his “pretty voice”, Aries to kill someone, and Rome to betray Aries. He is sometimes faced with the dilemma of Nebiros, as the demon is far more intellectual than him. Aside from tormenting people with his mere presence, he cannot tolerate extreme heat, nor the cold (hence the cloak) he is extremely strange-he swallows his food whole and he can make people freeze up just by staring at them (in the most malicious way possible) and he has a strange hobby of creating cursed talismans and voodoo dolls. Of all the clans, the Serpent’s clan is said to be the weakest of them all- or are they?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jin- he’s from the Qilin clan and he is exceptionally powerful, maybe even more powerful than Reiss (that’s just a thought) his hair is silver in color and he is said to be the fastest necromancer in the entire necromancy clan, and if that isn’t enough, his body is tattooed with the summoning symbols, hence he himself is the potential sacrifice for any summons-what’s more is that he is known for summoning multiple ghosts, demons and or spirits. It’s still a miracle he survives after summoning. Because of this, he has been chosen as the heir to the Qilin Clan-Nebiros is impressed with his abilities. Unlike previous heirs however, who were extremely serious with their positions as the heirs, Jin prefers to take things with his own pace. He studies all forms of martial arts as a disciplining technique and strangely enjoys chocolate. He has an older brother who is ill of an incurable disease-it is said that if his brother had not been ill, he would never have been born. Unlike most brothers who ignore or loathe their sibling vying for the position of clan heir, Jin loves his brother and vise-versa. Another fact to note is that Qilin heirs are not supposed to set foot outside the clan house, even if it means visiting other clans. Since the Qilin clan is the equalizer it cannot be biased or prejudiced to any other clan. Jin however, makes daily “field trips” into Reiss’ abode after hearing of Nebiros’ re-awakening and is pleasantly surprised to see various clan heirs mingling and tolerating each others presence so far as to live in one house. Jin thinks that if this is how it will be, the clans will benefit more if they will just become one large family, as they will be stronger in all aspects of life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Qin- he is Jin’s older brother who was born ill. Because of his incurable disease, his parents focused on creating another heir, resulting to his younger brother, Jin, being born. Instead of harboring any hate (since his parents basically ignored him and focused raising Jin) towards Jin, he instead, becomes his brother’s pillar of strength, encouragement and companionship/partner in crime. The bond they share is incredibly strong that it is more powerful than twin bonds. Jin gives Qin a summons to protect the older brother in his absence. It is not sure whether he lives or dies, since Nebiros states that “I will find what he is seeking”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**note: these are the five clans of Necromancy, however, it is notable that some people practice a form of “rogue necromancy”-even if they do not have the abilities to do so (usually these reasons are for vengeance) and the results often end up from bad to worst&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;***Note: this is the call of all necromancers in the clans, as it is their blood that allows them to summon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heed the call of my blood!&lt;br /&gt;I summon thee, give me thy power!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;****Note: contrary to what the Necromancy clans believe, Nebiros is just one of the many strong demons (and some are waay stronger) though they say that Naberius is one of the strongest, there are others, who are unknown to the necromancers thus leading them to conclude that Nebiros is powerful-which is partly true as well as false as there are other demons who are more superior in power.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Synopsis:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the four necromancy clans find the bastard child of one of their own, they are horrified and at the same time, pleased, that the boy is incredibly powerful as a necromancer, as he only needs to utilize his voice! But because of this unusual ability, the clans have taken precautions and, even though they’ve given the child, Reiss, a home (located at the center point of the clan houses) so that they will be able to monitor Reiss’ progress. The scary thing is, as Reiss grew older, the demons/spirits/ghosts that followed him increased in number and the clans have faced the problems of exorcism countless times (and it’s been tiring to them as well as irritating.) because Reiss summons by merely talking or even just laughing, the clans decided to muzzle the boy. This event traumatized Reiss so much that he “lost” his voice. However, even still, some of the more dedicated monsters still hover around his house and are welcomed by him. The span of ten years of Reiss being mute, the demon Nebiros broke free from his seal to find out why his “bell” had gone silent-(in reality, the bell was the only thing keeping Nebiros in the seal. Without it, he became bored and agitated.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other Demons:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aym [Haborym] an incredibly powerful demon who controls over twenty six legions of demons. He has the power to manipulate fire. Because he has lived very long and is very old, he finds that lying is useless and therefore is a truthful demon. He is handsome, but unlike Nebiros, Aym is brutal in most ways and a destroyer. He is the opposite of Nebiros, whom he has oppressed countless time, as Aym has the power to destroy things being found by Nebiros. They hate each other, but at the same time respect the other. He has the ability to pry at a person’s inner most questions and give answers. He has two stars on his forehead and can turn into a serpent or a cat. He utilizes the black flame which affects demons as well. He says he has left his mark on Naberius.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amon is a Marquis of Hell. He controls forty legions of spirits. He appears as a wolf with a serpent&apos;s tail, and breathes fire, or appears as a man with dog&apos;s teeth in the head of a raven, or simply as a man with a raven&apos;s head. He tells of things past and future, and reconciles feuds and controversies between friends. He is also Nebiros’ rival in many things. And even though Amon has the strength, he knows he does not have the brains- or enough of it, to really defeat Naberius.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Belial is the demon of lies and guilt. As a Prince of Hell, he commands 80 Legions of Demons and is specifically the Prince reigning over the Northern Reaches of Hell. He controls the element of earth and reigns over the Earth demons. The other princes of Hell include Olias, Asmoday, and Vassago. He especially dislikes Naberius as the demon had made his brother, Vassago, soft and kind (something that Vassego had already achieved before meeting with Naberius) Belial is the oldest of the demon Princes, which is why he commands the larger army. He tries his best to separate his younger brother Vassago from Naberius in order for his brother to totally submit himself to Belial’s command. Since the king’s sealing, he has been ruling over Hades and been plotting of destroying the world and all that crap.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vassago, in demonology, is a mighty Prince of Hell (see Hierarchy of demons), ruling over twenty-six legions of demons. He can be persuaded to tell the magician of events past and future, can discover hidden and lost things, and has a &quot;good&quot; nature he Third Spirit is a Mighty Prince. He is called Vassago. This Spirit is of a Good Nature, and his office is to declare things Past and to Come, and to discover all things Hid or Lost. And he governs 26 Legions of Spirits, and this is his Seal. Vassago has sometimes been called a Prince of Prophecy. He and Nebiros are in good terms and were companions for a time. Vassago, however, isn’t able to turn into a human, like most demons. Therefore he stays in Hades, in his true form, a large red dragon. They say that Nebiros is his first and only companion who saw him as a fellow demon and not something of power-therefore they were very close to each other and they eventually formed a link between them, until Naberius sealed himself up. Centuries of being separated from his dear friend caused Vassago to subdue all his powers for his brother’s use-something against his will, but seeing as he had not much left, he agreed and became something like a “pet” of his older brother, Belial. He always states that Naberius is his reason for not giving up. He is essential for Belial’s plans in creating a new Hades.&lt;br /&gt;Caim appears as a Great President of Hell, ruling over thirty legions of demons. Much detail is offered: he is a good disputer, gives men the understanding of the voices of birds, bullocks, dogs, and other creatures, and of the noise of the waters too, and gives true answers concerning things to come. He is depicted in 19th and 20th century occultist illustrations as appearing in the form of the black bird called a thrush, but soon he changes his shape into a man that has a sharp sword in his hand. When answering questions he seems to stand on burning ashes or coals. The title &apos;président&apos; of Hell would suggest a parallel with the presiding officer of a college or convocation, the only pre-modern uses of the term. Other authors consider Caim a &apos;Prince&apos; of Hell instead and depict him as a man wearing rich and elegant clothes, and the head and wings of a blackbird. An incredibly intellectual demon who can only be the friend of Naberius. They are good friends, and can best each other intellectually and physically. Although Caim has a lot to say against Naberius (teasingly of course, as friends often do), he considers him as a true and loyal friend-and vise versa. &lt;br /&gt;END?</description>

  <title>&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;another new story!!!!&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/40876.html</link>
  <description>no, i&apos;m still working on TAG-D but since my mind works so mysteriously, i&apos;ve accidentally created new stories while focusing on one! damn short attention span! anyway, hope you read it and i hope my other entry didn&apos;t creep you out that much-everyone says my hormones are finally working up just because i blush easily. ah well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so, welcome my new story!!!! mwahahahaha!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Riel is a sixteen year old boy who lives in the second floor of a retirement home where he aids his ten grandmas and grandpas around doing chores and cooking for them. However, when he’s not doing that, he goes to school, has a penchant for the arts and your average students. One thing he cannot stand however is being touched. Yes, Riel is an empath, his empathic powers however are incredibly strong that just the brush of wind carries various memories and jolts him. Rather than being a recluse however. Riel is determined to live a normal life, one seemingly rendered impossible when the new student takes an immense interest in him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, aside form his now crumbling world, he realizes that his school has become the home of various ghosts/demons/otherworldly beings because the nearby graveyard and temple has been destroyed to make way for the school’s expansion, and as luck would have had it, most of Riel’s classes are held in the haunted building! With ghostly beings after his trail just dying to possess him and a demon out for his blood, what’s a boy to do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Later, it is shown that Riel just happens to be imbibed with the most powerful form of magic ever in this universe, his empathy is not limited to feeling emotions, peering memories, but goes deeper, such as actually taking the power of another supernatural being! Because of this, the Demon king, Zeal, wants to take Riel’s powers for his own! Unfortunately, it seems as though he will have to get past Azrael who acts as a talisman who repels even the strongest demons away who is currently acting as Riel’s body guard!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;END: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It turns out that Riel just got himself caught between a war between demons, and that Zeal, is not actually the demon king, but Azrael is the rightful ruler, however, he was supposedly disposed of by Zeal to gain the demon throne, and if Azrael isn’t back on the throne before the next lunar eclipse, Zeal will rise to full power and rule over earth as well! There is a catch to Azrael’s seeming invulnerability-if Zeal can “kill” Arael’s heart, the demon prince will be rendered powerless and can be killed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Characters:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Riel [rii-el] – Riel is an incredibly powerful empath, however, it is something he deems it as a curse rather than a gift, he hates his powers and tries to act as normal as possible. He always wears gloves and does not take his school jacket off either. He is so sensitive that even when the wind brushes against him, he glimpses its memories! Because of his immense sensitivity, he dislikes being touched and does everything to avoid physical contact, which does nothing for him as contact sports are a regular in their school(he&apos;s totally pathetic in sports, he won;t budge till the coach calls him off the court). Riel, to say the least, is kind, patient and a bit pale-as he wears long sleeves all the time-even during the summer. He lives with ten grandparents because he was adopted into a retirement home as a child. It is shown that he is extremely shy as he does not like to talk very much and has always been a “shadow” in the classroom-but once you befirend him, he;s just so damn full of energy, you can;t shut him up. He carries Azrael’s heart near his own in the form of a tattoo. It is shown later that he can actually touch Azrael without any of the demon’s memories incorporating into his thoughts, and he likes the feeling of being able to have physical contact without passing out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Azrael- The new student who transfers from a land far away. Azrael is the complete opposite of Riel as he is Apathetic-meaning, nothing magical/spiritual or whatever can touch him ever! When he meets Riel however, he knows that they will have to stay together to defeat the ominous presence in the school. Later it is revealed that Azrael is a banished demon prince who needs to claim his right to the throne before all of earth becomes a living hell! Other than that, Azrael seems to be your typical high school boy who enjoys soccer, jumping off fifth story buildings and smells like smoke. Because of his outgoing (troublesome) presence, he brings forth all kinds of supernatural or even just normal problems such as gang wars and Ghostly possessions. Even though he is a demon, Azrael loves to be near humans and to be touched, so when he meets a human who does not want to be touched, touch he shall! Because of Azrael’s innate ability to null magic, Riel’s ability has no effect on him. Anyway, like all demons, he has the power to manifest fire, but because of his royal lineage, he uses Black fire, the most powerful element known to demon kind. He treasures Riel very much, albeit he has strange ways of showing it-as he does what is customary to demons-he also gives his heart to Riel which manifests as a small henna tattoo. It is also discovered that by human years, he is younger than Riel. He has a scar on his back from when Zeal tried to kill him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yumeki- one of Riel’s classmates who, even though has never formally befriended Riel, assists him in various tasks in society, as a teammate, captain of the PE team and as a good friend, he protects Riel fiercely, even though they hardly know each other. A straight “A” student and sports fiend, he makes it a point to accompany Riel because of various reasons and he does not anyone to bully his charge. in the court, he;s always pushing off passes that are aimed in Riel&apos;s direction and he always chooses Riel as his first pick. He gets riled up however, when he sees Azrael touching Riel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shun- one of Riel’s female classmates who has a crush on the boy, unfortunately, she is so violent and wild that everyone in the classroom fears her-especially Riel as she ran him down one time with her bike. and because she is ignorant or in denial of her own feelings, she usually believes that hurt=love. Even though she acts tough, she has a gentler side to her that sickens Azrael who does not like her one bit. These two are always arguing over menial things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Demons:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Zeal- the wicked usurper of the throne. He killed Azrael’s family members and took over the throne. He did not know that Azrael was still alive and has ruled hell for almost a millennia-the same time that Azrael, still a young fledgeling, went to the human world and grew up into a fierce fighter. Typically one of your evil bosses who plots and schemes for his plans to rule over earth and hell. He is bent on capturing Riel because of the immense magic in the boy, with it; he believes he will be able to literally raise hell on earth, even if Azrael gains his clan’s power. He is said to have had killed one of the legendary dragons to be able to gather enough power to destroy the Azrael clan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Allegard- faithful servant/henchman/reluctant assassin to Zeal. He was the one whom Zeal sent to pursue the dying Azrael, but Allegard let the young demon free into the human realm. He is, unlike most demons, kind towards all beings, and he did not wish to participate in murdering the great Azrael Family. However, Zeal seems to have some kind of control over him. It is said that his heart was taken from him by Zeal when he was young. But even because of that, he serves Zeal loyally. It is later shown that Allegard was not a pure demon, but a fallen, so only half his heart was taken by Zeal, as his other bloodline does not follow the rules of demons. He, however, receives Lear’s heart&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cassandra- Azrael’s fiancée. She and Azrael were betrothed when they were much younger-however, the young Azrael rejected her. Now a grown demon, she still mourns for the loss of her “beloved” and has rejected all the suitors that had come to woo her. When she realizes that some sign of Azrael is noted, she immediately goes to the human realm where she stays upon locating her fiancée and fuzzes over him constantly. She is torn between following demon law and human law-as Azrael forbids her to kill/consume the soul of or destroy any or all of his human companions. She is especially hateful towards Riel (who sometimes gets overloaded by her immense feelings of hate that he faints around her) whom Azrael has given his heart to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lear-one of Cassandra’s henchmen, he is always seen around Allegard and the two seem to get along wonderfully, Lear hates the fact that Allegard works for Zeal, and at some point, even accused Allegard for doing it on purpose. Later on, even though it is an extremely dangerous thing to do, he gives his heart to Allegard, in hopes that they will one day be free from Zeal. Lear carries a deeper secret; he bears one of the crests of the royal Azrael clan, meaning he is one of the four keys needed to unlock the true power of Azrael. But unlocking the power of Azrael meant that the ones bearing the crests would be used as a sacrifice-hence one of Lear’s attempts to hate Azrael-though at the same time, he fears he will be discovered.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Clans:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Azrael Clan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The original descendants of the first demon, and they have been ruling hell ever since with an iron fist, but they gave due process to everything they did and were very intellectual and logical-the entire demon population loved their reign and did nothing to object to their ruling. The Azrael clan is said to be the most feared of all demon clans because aside from their superior blood origins, they were rumored to bear the original power that could shake even heaven itself! It was said that if ever someone from the Azrael family would receive this mysterious power, he would become a true demon (horns, tail, etc.) and be able to perform anything. This secret power could only be accessed by gathering the four Azrael crests and one of the more powerful Azrael Princes/heirs. However, such a ritual has never been done, because although the Azrael clan was the most powerful, it was not enough to house such incredible power. And so, for the rest of the millenniums, the Crests disappeared and the secret became a rumor and eventually died out. Interestingly enough, the Azrael clan was famous for the number of male heirs it produced-which was why the clan was so large and dominated most of the demon world. The clan’s crest is a dragon-like serpent in combat with a phoenix. However, one night, years ago, the entire clan was wiped out by the usurper, Zeal. No one thinks that anyone ever survived that massacre, yet somehow, they hope that the clan will be miraculously bought back and free them from the hands of Zeal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Demon Dragon Clan&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A bunch of powerful reptilian like demons that inhabit the furthest regions of the demon kingdom, they are referred to as the guardians and watchers of the Demon history and are also known to be immensely powerful enough to kill even the Azrael clan. However, because of a common blood treatise, the clans have been at peace with one another and there were instances that the clans betrothed their children to strengthen the contract-which explains why their dragon appearance has taken demon form. It is said that killing a demon dragon and eating his heart would empower the murderer’s own abilities. The oldest of the dragon clan maintains his dragon form and is so large that one swing of his tail would destroy most of the demon world! He is the last of his original kind&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**note: a demon’s power is sometimes associated with his age and experience, because Zeal was older than the entire living Azrael family, by demon standards, he could destroy them easily. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**note: the Azrael family is a hierarchy of kings and queens of hell who descended from the first demon himself, and their line had remained pure for the entirety of their lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**note: it is notable that demons literally give their hearts to the ones they love and trust-living in a dog eat dog world-that’s a very difficult thing to do. If the holder of the heart is killed or if the heart is stabbed, the one who gave it away will die or will loose his invincibility as a demon thus become prone to death.&lt;br /&gt;Demon Laws:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The demon laws are not set in stone as the human laws are; instead, they are instinctive and are ingrained into the very core of demon fledglings. It is a mockery of the Ten Commandments the humans strive to follow. Aside from that the demon laws embody the basic need for survival. Unlike humans, demons are extremely close to their blood relatives. It is shown that the laws do not discriminate against anything just like the original commandment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.	worship no one and believe in yourself, your strength and your own prowess as a demon&lt;br /&gt;2.	love thyself or thy kin&lt;br /&gt;3.	create a name for thyself with thy own abilities&lt;br /&gt;4.	keep the 13th day for yourself&lt;br /&gt;5.	Remember your blood origins&lt;br /&gt;6.	kill for thy sake alone&lt;br /&gt;7.	Steal from others but your kin&lt;br /&gt;8.	bear false witness against all&lt;br /&gt;9.	earn and take what you will&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;**note- there is a tenth law that is not revealed-however, it is shown that the tenth commandment for demons was to embody love, something that was erased by former demon kings as they thought it was a weakness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.	Take to the one, your heart and with it, you shall stay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Translation is a bit off, but it may be that whoever that demon’s heart belongs to, they are forever faithful and loyal only to that person/demon-which may also mean that demons may only take on one partner for the rest of their long lives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Human Laws: &lt;br /&gt;Traditionally, they are the Ten Commandments however; societal acceptability is also taken into credit so humans are flexible in their laws.</description>

SHIT!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Take it back!!! di yan totoo!!!&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now i know why one of my newer classmates asked me &quot;uyab nimu to?&quot; with that frown and utmost look of worry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SHIT. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am so screwed!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;----------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last time i checked, there was an unwritten rule as to the equal distribution of work. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so what i don&apos;t understand is WHY in hell&apos;s name would they OVERLOAD their group mates who have tons to do, while under load those who have done NOTHING at all?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;see, me and my classmate, Irina, were deigned to create the backdrop for our presentation, which is TB, Dengue, Filariasis and Expanded Program of Immunization and Environmental Sanitation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and since we&apos;ve been busy lately with our Thesis, we haven&apos;t had much time getting around to doing it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then here comes miss bossy who suddenly texts us, DEMANDING as to why we weren&apos;t helping with the props. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now, i was able to create 25 invitations, which took me hmmm... i dunno, ten hours to make all by my lonesome? i only had two hours of sleep that day, (mind you, i didn&apos;t complain, it was a very fulfilling experience) so i don&apos;t understand what the big deal is since she has eight other group members working on it. makes the work load lighter than backdrop making, since there are only two of us in that department and even if we&apos;ve collaborated on our work, it took a long time to finish a masterpiece (or really cute backdrops with microorganisms all over with giant mosquitoes) (Approx. 6 hours)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;plus, miss bossy texted us &quot;unfair kaau mo bah, buhat buhat lang mo ug thesis&quot; and this is the group who already FINISHED theirs at an earlier date while WE haven;t even BEGUN!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then she orders me and my other thesis group mate (who belongs to the same duty group as me-under miss bossy-) to GO TO UYANGURENE AND BUY PRIZES SUITABLE FOR MALES AND FEMALES. dear god, what does she want us to accomplish?! me and Kevin have no idea where to get the best bargains or where to EVEN BEGIN looking-hell Kevin has NEVER been there!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;anu pala gusto niya i-accomplish natin?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;ha, ma-accomplish natin no, mawawala lang tayo.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Wala talaga sila nag-iisip bah&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;lagi, me plus you plus uyangurene equal wala&apos;y pulos&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;______________________________________________________________________________________&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in other news, i found this really cool manga called &quot;Black Butler&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i;ve put up the new story of TAGD, wonder if you guys read it?</description>

  <title>a sneak preview to the sequel to TAG... sorta...</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/40368.html</link>
  <description>TAG-D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Twenty years after the world has rebooted, everything is fine. Earth is in bloom, oceans are blue, but wait, there seems to be something dark still brewing in all the green. It seems that the original NTAG group has been scattered or has suddenly disappeared. Of course, this does not bode well with the citizens as the NTAGs served as the ambassadors and upholders of justice in the mechanism of things. Now that the group had dissipitated, earth, though wonderfully productive, has returned to its medieval stage, with slavery and injustice ruling the environs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	In this new world, like the humans and the earth itself, the TAGs have also begun to experience the totality of living. However, due to the TAGs amazing abilities, they have started to be treated differently, i.e. discriminatingly. The discrimination towards them under the current situation puts the TAGs in the wrong side of the law and of justice. The reason for the discrimination is because the TAGs have suddenly started to multiply. Yes, multiply, a simpler term for the actual passing of genetic combinations into a newer more refined and perfected generation-thus the term TAG-D or Transmodified Artificial Generation-Descend. The newer TAG generation is exceptionally more powerful and has almost deleted all genetic anomalies present in their predecessors. And so the problem lies therein, what with the newer generation needing less food to power up their amazing bodies, the humans have started to treat them with extreme suspicion, thinking that the TAGs would still want to rule the world, annihilating the humans as the now, totally, and inferior species-as a thing of survival. Because of this, the government, in a desperate bid to balance the world again (something it never could do without the NTAGs) decided to rally against the TAGs, placing the TAGs in a precarious position, as the government plans to finally extinguish the TAG-D to finally eradicate the world of those who would oppose them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	But all hope is not totally lost, because out of the remnants or ruins of the NTAG reign, someone still keeps their beliefs held in a pedestal. And that someone is Reidal, the son of Leixander. Discovering the injustice now ruling supreme, Reidal decides to turn things right and give the TAGs a fighting chance, who else to lead the TAGs but one of their own? One of their most powerful and that is Lauder. Twenty years into the story still has not changed the fact that the name “Lauder” has become legendary, and he is even worshiped as a sort of savior by the TAGs. So in an epic journey to place everything right, Reidal travels to the ends of the world to find the Legendary NTAG.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	However, what he does will bring forth the most disastrous consequence and the savior he may bring back from death may as well be the one to doom them all into inexistence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CHARACTERS:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reidel- twenty years old and the only son of Leixander. However, he looks like Lauder’s identical clone, because of the blood pact his father took years ago, Lauder’s DNA and genes are alive in his body, thus giving him, also, enhanced strength and intelligence, something that a TAG possesses. Unlike his father however, he can control his powers at will. He also is experienced in wielding the twin arm blades his father is extremely adept in. unlike his father, he is wild and uncontrollable, emotional and impulsive, and although years of being experimented and trained upon by humans in various Laboratories to enhance his incredible powers through strict discipline only deepened his yearning to be totally free. Because of Reidel’s strange DNA and physique (he did inherit Lauder’s extra stomach and amazing physiologic structure) he is sometimes deemed as an outcast by most humans, since he is, in technical terms a pseudo-TAG or a genetic anomaly in the otherwise perfect stages of evolution that was originally made, take your pick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;LAN- Laser Activated Neutralizer. Yes, the cute little five year old is still alive, but now, with the world recovering, something unsure and strange is happening to him, Lan is “growing” in layman’s terms, yes growth. The physiologic occurrence in the anatomical structure that allows the quality and quantity of organs and bones. Yes, he is growing, and no, he does not look like a five year old anymore, his growth spurt started a little later after Reidel&apos;s third birthday, so physically, he looks like an eighteen year old. Unlike Reidel, he is a worry wart, inept in battles and though he has enough psychic power in his body to basically shut down the entire TAG civilization, he is only good for intelligence reports and tactics-something that Reidal does not care to have.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Fiere- twenty three years old and son of Anya. Although whom his father is, is never discussed. Fiere was abandoned by his mother into Leixander’s care where he became somewhat sort of a big brother to Reidel. Unlike his mother who was already one of the most renowned witches in her own right, Fiere has a more physical approach on things, the only strain of magic he has is the ability to willingly produce fire-hence his name. He is the total opposite of his mother, whose name represented the hope and life the white wolf could give, Fiere represented the life that could be taken in one fell swoop. In a sense, he was something akin to death. He is cocky, has a sharp tongue and easily angered, but when in the mood, he could brood with the best of them. He is actually capable of being a good leader, but his hot-headedness could be something that could bring down the group. He wields fire as his main arsenal, but he is also capable of building bombs (something akin to a hobby)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These three then go to a journey, searching for the one who could probably make things right. But of course, nothing goes according to plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now you may be wondering what has happened to the NTAG team, well, here’s a brief history:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Twenty years prior&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Leixander: after Lauder’s disappearance, he decided to move forward and get the world settled into its new, rapidly changing, environ. As a result, the humans and TAGs became acquainted with one another, thus giving a form of equilibrium. Because of his effectiveness, the world decided to vote him into office, or a president, someone to preside over the world’s changes. After this occurred, he settled down and had a family. His wife died giving birth to his only child, Reidal. Totally devastated, seeing as he could not achieve happiness, and feeling as if being let down, he resigned from office, took his son and set off to continue exploring the world. After five years, he returned to office and settled down for half a year before leaving his then seven year old son in the hands of his fellow NTAGs and venturing out again. What everyone did not know was that he kept returning to the area where Lauder was last seen, trying to seek solace to finally move forward. After a span of months, he begins to grow distant form the NTAGs and an incident that occurred between him and Naja leaves him more broken that he suddenly succumbs into a comatose state. And so remains still to this day, as if waiting in vain for someone to finally save him. In his comatose state, he has neither aged nor grown, seemingly in suspended animation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alex: Status: [AWOL] At first, he is a bit shocked that Leixander could get over the loss of his friend so fast, but he has had his doubts concerning the other boy. He is worried about Leixander, but when the other boy becomes more and more distant, he decides then, to focus on his own future. Alex becomes one of those ambassadors who travel to the different parts of the globe to ensure the peace. However, on one of his trips, he becomes AWOL. Other than a mysterious note pinned on Leixander’s fridge, there is nothing else left behind by Alex to hint as to where or to what he is up to. However, there have been rumors of a tribe of human wolves traveling in the distant north-this has never been proven.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;William Tellen: Status: [missing] William was never able to get over his need to surpass TAGs, he became uncontrollable and killed TAGs even though there was a general rule that stated that no more unnecessary killings would be made. After a huge massacre he committed (about 50 TAGs were killed), he disappeared.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Laya: Status: [deceased] three more years in NTAG servitude, she became an ambassador as well. However, she mysteriously died, leaving the book to her sisters. It is said that her soul became part of what makes the book magical, as well as cursed. Because of her death, the Beta team separated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maikya: she has also become an ambassador and apart from maturing, she isn’t the hotheaded girl anymore. She has seemingly become kind and is the one who looks after Reidel, Lan and Fiere after their own parents left them for something that they could not find. Her change in attitude was brought about after she finally realized her own true potential, opening a sixth eye in her mind that allowed her to locate as well as scan the minds of those around her. She was the one who was teaching Lan about his powers. Maikya was, however, forced to surrender the boys to the government. She is currently residing in an old dilapidated hut after being forced out of the embassy by the new weaker government. It seems that she lives in isolation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anya: after giving birth to her own child, she shunned him, seeing the marks of death etched on his body (I forgot to mention Fiere has various tatoos) she mysteriously disappeared after giving up Fiere, she took the book of death with her, as she has finally reached her potential, becoming the grey witch. It is not known where she is, but there have been sightings of a ghost going around performing miracles on those who needed it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Naja: status: [Deceased] after five more years of NTAG service, his body finally gave up on him; he spent most of his remaining years in the hospital where he withered away into nothing. However, there were various reports that he was shot by Leixander himself, in an act of euthanasia. Naja was twenty three and was supposed to be twenty four the day after he died.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adder “Addie”: Five more years of following his beloved Naja, till death. After Naja’s unexpected death, he took the corpse and disappeared. There has not been a single sign to pinpoint where he is. Whether he has died or still living is unknown&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Krait/Rais: due to the krait poison, he developed a doppelganger. A pseudo twin called Rais. They both separated and traveled their own ways as ambassadors and NTAGs as well. However, Rais was killed by a hunter after he thought Rais was some kind of strange animal (cobra team uniform composed of long cloaks) when Rais was killed, Krait fell dead as well. It turned out that even though they split, they were half of the same person, they shared half of their body’s physiology (half a heart, half a spleen etc.) whatever happened to the Krait would happen to Rais and vise versa-but they found out too late.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah, even though the NTAGs worked hard to keep the world together, they failed to keep their teams, and thus they fell into chaos. Each one going their own way, past camaraderie erased, each desperately wanting to move on when neither can start. And all of them knew that, but they still kept looking forward, squinting at the far off future that was never clear to any of them. They ended up destroying the only bonds that they could ever keep and treasure.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WARNING!!! the current information is bound to change in any given millisecond. so if it sucks now, wait till you see it later!</description>

  <description>I&apos;ve been working on my case study for the past two weeks now. it&apos;s pretty easy, i do all the English/creative parts while my other group mates do the scientific stuff (though I&apos;d have preferred to do the scientific stuff as well, there wasn&apos;t enough data to divide into five people)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, i sent my finished work to my group mates via YM. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;thinking i was done, and since i obviously sent all my works to them for compilation, i shut off the PC and took a bath. when i came back out, my group was calling me telling them i had not emailed one of my parts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i bristled, growled and loudly swore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;yawa, putik!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my father asked me what was wrong and i thought, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;great, after 19 years of my life, NOW you ask me what&apos;s wrong?! oh well, let me begin, first you force me into a course i NEVER WANTED TO PICK, next, you ignore me for three years of my college life where all my grades spiraled in seismographic scales and you just scolded me on how i could get such a low grade WITHOUT even ASKING me prior to that how I WAS HOLDING UP?! what&apos;s more is that none of you ever BOTHERED TO ASK THAT BEFORE!!!!&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;flash back, i remember this scene VERY clearly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;second year college, i was feeling extremely pressured, considering i almost got kicked out of college due to my poor math skills, i was bleeding my eyes out trying to study for three subjects, and one major. and i got pissed since my mom told me to wait for one hour in school. trust me my classes ended late-she told me she&apos;s be by in an hour. then  three fucking hours passed by and she still did not show up!!! i was cold, hungry and mosquitoes were all over me as if i were some kind of buffet!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;needless to say i was extremely pissed&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when my mother came, i barely spoke to her and stomped to my room, abandoned dinner and resumed my studying-still very very pissed&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then my parents came up and told me to suck it up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh yeah, big help.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;END&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i guess today, i just snapped, considering one of my group mates is an extremely ruthless backbiter, i can imagine what horrible things she has concocted. goddamn her, all her parts are in anatomy books and she just copy pasted them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh yeah, my father helped so much, he kept on asking what was wrong, what was i gonna do&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and i thought &quot;oh shut up already i already know what i am going to do, need i tell you?!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;what? didn&apos;t you want me to be independent? i&apos;m handling things on my own goddamit, don&apos;t pull me back into that cradle you put me in for 16 damn years!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and he says he wants to help me&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;bullshit&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;you don&apos;t know me enough to do anything but piss me off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ladies and gentlemen, i, have finally SNAPPED.</description>

  <title>TAG&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt; NEW STORY!!! BWAHAHAHA!!!</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/39699.html</link>
  <description>TAG&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The world has been totally destroyed by technology, the cities transformed into towns and urban kingdoms have become rural areas. The once lush planet has become a complete desert wasteland. The humans have been thriving on the foodstuffs they can hunt and gather, being reduced from modernity to survival. Where the rich are those with ample supply of water and crops and herds than those with money and- well you get the idea. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the new ruins, there are newer organisms that have been “made” in the days where technology had once abounded. These beings are called TAGs or the Transmodified Artificial Generation these beings are rampant and are said to have inconceivable abilities that humans can only dream of. And these TAGs are going to one day rule over the world with their immense intelligence and knowledge by brutally eradicating the obsolete species. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;TAGs are generally male, rare are the females. But one thing that is common to them is that they all have three stomachs. All three are fully functional. See, the scientists reasoned that for something to realize all of its abilities, he needs to have the fuel for it first. More nutrition feeding the brain, the more sectors it unlocks. TAGs then have rather large appetites and need large amounts of iron and protein, the vital building blocks. These make the TAGs carnivorous, and in these poor times, they have suddenly become cannibalistic. Besides, the highest sources of these elements are humans, aren’t they? If TAGs do not replenish their nutrients, their body starts auto digesting itself and they die, from the inside out. Other TAGs however, survive by taking in large amounts of subtituents that contain various amounts of iron and protein, sustaining themselves. But the sectors of their brains that have long been activated start to atrophy and die, they begin to lose neuronal function and fall into a brain dead state-something akin to hibernation until they are supplied with large amounts of iron and protein again. Aside from multiple organs, they also have extra bones in their body to withstand immense pressure and still remain stable enough to support their own powers. Sometimes they may also have the ability to disconnect heir jaws to engulf things whole, much like snakes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The NTAG (Neutralize Transmodified Artificial Generation) is an organization who is in charge of keeping TAGs in check. They have bounty hunters to order around and the two most powerful ones are called Alpha. This is the story of two bounty hunters who try to control those TAGs finally giving into the need to sustain themselves while surviving rivalries and generally, life itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NTAG consists of four groups of bounty hunters, their ranks are left unknown and their groups are Alpha, Beta, Cobra and Delta. The whole story focuses on team Delta, even though their rankings are a bit off, they are one of the best of the best.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;DELTA Team&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lauder- he is the older of the two hunters and his age is inversely proportional to his maturity. He has the maturity of a 5 year old, the personality of jack the ripper and the temper of a three year old. He however, is a TAG, but unlike other models, he has four stomachs, three functioning and the last one for storage. Because of the added organ, he wears a metal belt around his abdomen for protection. Unlike the other TAGs, he does not eat humans, he hates them! Though it is questionable because he chose to share the blood pact with a human. He sustains himself by eating animals and various shrubs, roots and fruits and vegetables, anything that he can gobble down. He is sometimes the reason why the team needs to work more often than other bounty hunters because of his large appetite. Like all other TAGs he has a silver dog tag clipped to his ear for monitoring. He uses guns in battle to conserve energy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Leixander- the second hunter. He is loud, always complaining and has a knack for getting into accidents. He, unlike Lauder, has a good heart and is not afraid of emotions. However, he is not a TAG, but a human. He and Lauder however, took a blood pact; he now has TAG blood in him. Instead of killing him however, like most humans, Leixander has managed to live up to this point of his 18th summer. The blood that Lauder has given him then opens up sectors of the brain, giving him superior strength. There are times however, when the blood jolts his brain and unlocks a completely different persona, this occurs when he is under pressure, or his emotions run out of control. He wields two blades that attach to his arms.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alex- unlike the other two members, Alex is neither TAG nor is he human. His kind is said to be the first attempts in gene splicing, as Alex has two dog ears on his head. Like his genetic counterpart, Alex is typically feral. His main weapon is his aggressiveness and his strange ability to manipulate animals to do his bidding. All the more strange is the fact that he loathes animals, though they swarm over him. Alex is surprisingly the intelligent one in the group and tries to create order within. He also manages the budget and is the one who pushes his two other teammates to work harder to get more bounties. Unlike usual genetic experiments, Alex takes more on the human side rather than his animal side. However, he tends to slip up and reveals his kind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lan- he is the groups “adopted” child. The only survivor of a huge massacre, Lan is not who he seems to be. Like every other child, he looks innocent and loves to play, and he is only five years old, making him very inquisitive and hyper. It seems that Leixander mothers him, while Lauder threatens to eat him and Alex is his babysitter. Lan however, has the ability to shut all TAGs down and cause them to die. It is shown that he is the fail safe mechanism created to stop the TAGs if ever they got out of hand. Because of this, it is discovered that he is not human, but a program and he has not grown in 800 years. These secrets are not discovered until much later, when they find the key to activate the mechanism. It is said that after the last TAG has been destroyed, the world will flourish again. His name is not far from his Pneumonic, Laser Activated Neutralizer. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ALPHA Team:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The alpha team actually consists of only one person, he is said to be the strongest bounty hunter in the entire world and he has become legendary at some points.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;William Tellen- the legendary Bounty Hunter of the world, and he’s human. It is said that he took out fifty rogue TAGs and survived. Unlike other bounty Hunters however, who take things lightly and love procrastinating, Will is serious and somewhat emotionless, emotionless enough to be compared to a piece of wood. His name was derived from the ancient archer, William Tell. Appropriately enough, he specializes in sniping and carries an array of long range weapons; however he carries a dagger and a pistol for melee battles, and has a crossbow on his left arm. Will is always on the move, destroying TAGs. He, however, kills without thought or mercy and even kills TAGs who are “tamed” or converted. One time he expressed his wish to personally finish off Lauder. His summons name is “Desert Storm” because he comes like the storm and leaves death at his wake. It is shown that he has the strange ability to hibernate, even if he is human.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;BETA Team:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Beta team consists of three females, each wielding some kind of ancient magic. They are the most feared and generally called Black magic because of their various killing spells. If this team is summoned, death is most likely and instantaneously imminent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Laya- the oldest of the “sisters” she carries the book of death, an artifact that was found in the ruins of a museum. Unlike human belief, the book of death needs the soul of the user to be operable. It is said to be a piece of technology from centuries before the wasting of the planet. Which means probably before Egypt. She is rumored to contain the spirit of ancient Gods and Goddesses. She is the one who initiates the death spells on the victims. Even though she is the leader, she is quiet and prefers to meditate rather than entertain customers or socialize. She’s usually floating in an orb, tilting in odd angles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maikya- “Mai” for short. She is the second and is the one who “searches” for the bounty by using a series of tracking and seeking spells, usually in the form of paper cranes. She is loud mouthed and loves to pick fights. Of the three women, she wears pants. Her favorite bullying subject is Lauder, who either ignores her or quarrels back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anya- named after the mystic white wolf of the north. She is the youngest with pinkish hair. Out of the three, she is liable to be the one to inherit the book of death. Her powers are undocumented and unspecific, such as body transportation, creating a doppelganger, seeing the future and empathy. She is cheerful and super clumsy. However, when she really concentrates, her powers magnify tenfold. She has a crush on Leixander&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;COBRA team&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This team specializes in poisons, like its name sake. But because of the shortage of supply of poison, they were trained to incorporate small amounts of different poisons in their body, so they themselves become the lethal weapons, with the ability to kill with their poison touch. They are the only team who does not wield any weapons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Naja- he is the leader of the team and has been the longest living person of the team, making his blood the deadliest. Because of the large amounts of poison in his body, some extremities have started to necrotize, turning black. He constantly suffers from extreme pain due to his nerves slowly being eaten. He frequently uses morphine and other narcotics, leaving him in a dull state. But unknown to other members of the team, he has developed a tolerance to various drugs as well, so he just plays stupid. He is usually wrapped in bandages, his forehead is shown to bear the mark of the cobra. His personality however is all happy, not wanting to be a burden. His hobby is trying new and weird things. (Ophiophagus Hannah) the king cobra&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Adder- he is fondly called “addie” because of the adder poison he constantly uses, his hair has turned gray. Unlike their care-free leader, Adder is quiet and quite the sadist. He enjoys killing people, animals and even insects. He is said to be sociopath whom Naja adopted and curbed his killing instinct for good, however, he still cannot be trusted in crowds. Whenever the groups enter a town, he is kept on a leash to prevent him from randomly killing people. It is shown however, that he has developed a very strong sense of justice, picking his victims carefully. He is very close to Naja and will obey him till the very end. He usually calms down when given caffeine and becomes unmanageable when served with tea or other soothing drinks. (Acanthopis Antarcticus) the death adder&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Krait- using the Krait poison, he has developed splitting in his hair tones, one side is black and the other is blonde. It seems that he cannot fully control his right arm because his nervous system has finally reacted to the poison, but that theory was questioned when the right arm moved to block an attack. It is shown later that he had developed a “split body” instead of a personality; his right body had developed its own mind. Tests show that he has “something” developing in him that has been slowly absorbing the poisons as “sustenance” probably a new type of parasite. Because of his strange affliction, he sometimes, as a side effect, slurs his s’s too much. (Bungaras Elapidae) the Krait&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;RIVALS:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FLOOD &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is another group of bounty hunters that do everything for a specific amount of provisions. Unlike the NTAGs who consider their job as some sort of justice to uphold to the world, this group merely does it for crooked reasons. They don’t have a permanent set of members as most are killed or dispatched of, they are kind of the ruffians in their time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NGENESIS (NeoGenesis)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This group aims to cleanse the whole world and aim to “reboot” it again by trying to recreate technology again. In this way, they collect TAGs and experiment on them, because they believe the secrets to reviving the planet lay hidden in one of the Demons. They are constantly in the way of the NTAGs and are recently trying to capture Lauder whom they think, has the genetic code to reboot the whole “system” of the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is shown that the real reason the world degenerated was because the world itself was transformed into a large machine, which corresponds to the NGENESIS’s beliefs about needing to reboot the world. However, rebooting needs the sacrifice of a large amount of power only found in TAGs, thus rebooting would kill all of their species-if they cooperate. If the world is infused with a large amount of power, it will “reboot” and flourish again probably for a hundred years-sparing both TAGs and Humans. The world’s longevity is also questioned, because it will need a power source to maintain “Online” this is why Lauder is needed. He is the power source, the latest of the TAG models and he himself carries the reboot program in his DNA. It is shown that Lauder’s heart is special, unlike other TAG hearts; his is made of earth’s most powerful battery, Iridium, infused into the organ, giving himself and his blood energy beyond measure. Keeping Lauder alive then is a priority if the NGENESIS plan is to be set into motion. However if Lauder is used as the energy source and as the reboot system, this would ensure the survival of the people and the TAGs themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ENDING&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the end, Lauder consents to NGenesis in their plan to reboot the world, caught by the words of the leader “would you selfishly keep on living for your own sake when you know that there is no more future to look into? You are depriving all of us for that.” Lauder leaves his team and joins the NGenesis, where experiments are done to him to secure is authenticity. He is then placed in a large chamber where his heart is exposed-as his heart is seemingly the main control mechanism of the world’s reboot. Wires upon wires are placed on him, seemingly to drain the life from him, feeding the Earth. When he is placed in containment unit, filled with liquid to sort of “preserve” him in a futuristic try at cryogenics, Leixander steps in, hoping to change Lauder’s mind. However, the TAG has already decided, although he says he wants to give everyone a fair chance in life, deep inside, he really just wants to do it for his teammates and his friends, not for anyone else. With that, Lauder “dies” or falls into a state of catatonic coma-thus rebooting the Earth. The laboratory where the NGen has been working in starts to collapse, it sinks deep into the earth, possibly becoming the core. As the whole NTAG team escape, they cannot help but mourn the fate of Lauder. However, they also notice the “difference” of the environment-earth has started to reboot, the process taking immediate effect, the trees start to flower and the grass and shrubs and everything else start to grow. Leixander then faces his fellow NTAGs, “look, everywhere, it’s where Lauder is.”&lt;br /&gt;	After the whole rebooting thing, history is rewritten and although Lauder was not part of it-or more accurately kept out of it (an amazing powersource like him could be relocated and brought back), the NTAGs always tell this story to everyone who listens. The world is also governed by the NTAG team who rule justly the TAGs and Humans.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Ten years later, earth is in full bloom-it’s currently spring and two boys can be seen playing around, the taller one resembles Lauder in an eerie manner. He is playing with another boy, who looks like Lan. The Lauder look-a-like stops and looks at nature, he turns to face the younger boy, “Lan, you hear that? I think he’s calling me.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;				END… or is it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You may be wondering who the Lauder look alike is. No, he is not Lauder, as Lauder cannot die. In a technical sense he’s immortal. Remember Leixander who took the blood pact with Lauder? Their DNA was passed into Leixander’s descendant, Reidel. Yes, Lan is still living. He’s a program, unless he is deleted, he will remain living. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was planning to make a part two, where Reidel travels to the center of the earth to free Lauder, thus proving the legends to be true. However in doing so, he resets history. Eerily enough the lab that was swallowed whole by the earth is still intact, though a bit dilapidated.</description>

  <description>yes, congratulations, we&apos;re in the fourth year, the final stone till we cross over to adulthood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;do you ever feel like you regret taking your course? that the reason &quot;it&apos;s easier for you to look for a job&quot; or &quot;it&apos;s for your own good&quot; sounds more and more mundane though that&apos;s whats been pushing you on? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i do. and i would&apos;ve been happier if this happened to me when i was attending my summer classes/duties. i did a little thinking and realized:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i would be taking care of total strangers for a meager salary of 6,500 pesos. i&apos;d be undertaking a thankless job where lives are on the line, taking orders from higher-ups... for the rest of my life....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i was going to be miserable.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh yes, i was hyped at first, hyped and motivated, i loved going to the hospital on duty days, i talked to patients happily, i was even desperate enough to learn proper &quot;Visayan&quot; for god&apos;s sake!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but now, i look at them, the so called patients... and i think, &quot;what the hell are these people doing to themselves?!&quot; or i&apos;d sometimes, if not all the time, catch myself wishing that they&apos;d up and kick the bucket already...although it makes me feel an itty bitty bit guilty, i find myself wishing that especially if the patient was ill due to his own actions (i.e damn chronic alcoholics who finally fall into a coma where they become a BURDEN to their families and friends-smoker who develop TB or lung cancer)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;other than that, i usually am apathetic in the ward now. i don&apos;t stay by the bedside to chat, because i know i&apos;d just force a smile on my face and nod politely while inside, i&apos;m thinking &quot;good lord, leave me alone!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i&apos;ve been contemplating for the longest while now.. are nurses really just maids in uniform carrying diplomas? am i gonna be changing adult diapers for the rest of my life?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God or whoever out there might as well end my life if that&apos;s all there is to it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it&apos;s not fair. i used to have dreams, wishes, hopes, all crushed by the need for &quot;money&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;no wonder filipinos wish for life abroad. it&apos;s not braindrain like our history teachers taught us, it was PRACTICALITY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in the most corrupt country in the world, would you really blame the people for WANTING to leave?</description>

  <title>5th avenue&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt; NEW STORY!!!</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/39120.html</link>
  <description>5th avenue&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seine is looking for a job, unfortunately, he isn’t qualified to work anywhere because he is clumsy, an airhead and strangely naïve about the reality of the world, and other than that, he’s still trying to keep himself in school! However, when toys store down the 5th avenue hires him, he never expected his life to get screwed!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Inside the strangely unknown toy store holds more than your average plush and whatnot, beneath it lays the most bizarre service ever! Tryz, the person who owns and manages the store, happens to be a Genus Breed, the nucleus of all mythical creatures, he is bounded by the ancient laws into service-any kind of service required of him, at a price. And these Special services usually end up being too hilarious, or definitely life threatening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Characters:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Seine- the newly hired “meat” as dubbed by Tryz. Seine is trying to live by himself after his parents died; he is known by everybody to be clumsy, an airhead, and stupidly naïve. Plus, he has strange habits, like the need to sleep in the afternoons and sun downing syndromes-which make it especially hard for him to find a job and continue schooling. Strangely, he loves toys, because every time his parents came back after a long trip abroad, they always brought back a stuffed toy. Seine’s room is virtually filled with stuff toys; it’s even being compared to a child’s room. He has the distinct memory that the toys he has contain a bit of his parents, so he has never let go of a single one. He can relate well with children-though the neighbors speculate it’s about him being able to relate at an intellectual level. He is hired by the toy store at 5th avenue where he discovers the store owner’s side job- he is then pulled in the whirl of fantasy that confuses him even more. He, thereafter, becomes Tryz’s companion in the other boy’s activities.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tryz- the Genus Breed. He is the rarest type of creature, because aside from nullifying all other creatures, he has the ability to exist between both worlds. His store therefore, is like a truce covenant of some sort, wherein mythical creatures can exist along with the humans. Tryz however, is not the submissive type-even if it is his fate, he hates performing-however, the ancient laws are ingrained into his very being, and he tends to hurt himself unconsciously if he disobeys any plea. He has no right to reject any service asked from him, but his virtue is protected by the laws as well-though he may end up injuring himself as a price. Tryz is extremely evil, with an extremely smart mouth for getting out of trouble and his good looks to fool people. He always talks his way out of things and even uses his charm to trick people into buying toys. He sees Seine as a person who needs to improve himself-someone who cannot exist in the world, like himself and hires him as a result.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sei- he is Seine’s older step brother, however, his mother gave him up for adoption-he’s been looking for his baby brother ever since. Unlike Seine, Sei is extremely good looking, even been hired as a model. He is kind, but seen as a rugged person by many, as he indulges in many outdoor activities. Unfortunately, his only clue of his baby brother is a picture of when the latter was only three years old. He is usually seen hanging around the toy the store in an attempt to escape his agent or his fans or the public, in general. Everyone says he is a very cool person, other times people think he’s eccentric, but inside, he is an extreme worry wart. He has a morbid fascination for body art and has three piercing on his ear and one on his abdomen. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Reve- another worker in the store. He is said to be a powerful telepath, but locks down his own mind to protect himself and people around him, it’s kinda useless because his powers sometimes seeps out and he still ends up reading a person’s mind. He always tries to be normal, but he can never go out because the thoughts of people overpower him too much. He is the one who keeps watch over the store whenever Tryz disappears on the job. He is also the one who tells Tryz of any other new ads, which can be found in the other world’s news paper, in coupon form. He loves to make fun of Seine, and knows about Sei, though he prefers, at first, not to meddle. His one wish is to live normally and be seen normally, by, even just one person.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Minorities&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Levine and Ravine- twin vampire boys who are always baby-sat by Tryz. Their parents are rich and are never home so they are always staying in the toy store. They are extremely annoying and sometimes hyper. They love Seine, but got beat up by Tryz for trying to eat him/turn him into a vampire on several occasions. Tryz usually locks them up in the basement and gives them blood, but ever since Seine took over, they’ve been wreaking havoc around the store as “junior assistants”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bane- an abandoned wolf cub who becomes Tryz’s responsibility after it crosses the boundaries and lives. He has become extremely attached to Seine and snaps at Tryz. He has become the store’s mascot and the twin’s best friend&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;It starts out as a comedy, but turns darker later as more clients abuse the power of the Genus Breed and seek to control Tryz. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is found out later that Seine is not entirely human himself, instead, he is the fusion of intense impregnable magic that caused him to live and develop a human form, which explains the sun downing syndromes as magic works best at night. In short, he is nothing more than a living; breathing embodiment of magic- because he had “died” with his parents in the crash, however, the residual magic caused by the birth of a powerful being gathered into his dying body and resurrected him at the cost of his memories because his soul became fragmented, the small fragment engulfed by the magic and settled back into the body. He will then cease to exist if the magic drains away. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sei is also found out to have strange abilities, like the ability to perform lock down on anybody-shutting off a person’s mind, therefore rendering them unconscious or comatose. He has killed three people by accident. In a way, he is like a telepath, but his abilities are lumped into one powerful skill. Although Sei is unconscious of his skills-it would explain why Reve could not read his mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The birth that occurred at the time of Seine’s death was the rebirth of Memnon, the demon, into the human world, which poses as a threat to Tryz, if Memnon requires the service of the Genus Breed, the ancient laws state that he has to obey. Looks like our almighty Genus needs saving himself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Ancient laws are literally embodied into Tryz’s very being, in his heart, most probably, held together by large amounts of magic. If he disobeys service, the magic eases up and the Laws become something like poison in his body, slowly killing him in the most painful way possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Law stated that the Genus breed may claim a master, but the law had a loop hole, the genus could be forced into service by anybody-possibly anybody stronger than him. Prophecy says that the complete demon in the human body would be the genus’s master; however, since Memnon’s residual magic is inside Seine, it makes Seine a possible candidate for the master position.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The worlds have sealed all demons and angels have rightfully regained their place in god’s grace, however, prophecy said that if a demon was born into the world and gained the power of Genus, the world would fall into the second Godless war.</description>

  <title>STORY!!!!! WAHAHAHAHA!!!</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/38608.html</link>
  <description>i&apos;ve got a hell of a lot of new stories in my comp... hehehe, i&apos;ll post one now and maybe the rest will follow. i&apos;ve heard, from my friend Ira that the anime alliance thingie will be creating manga. and they will be published. though i think the money will be sent to the club thing. hehehe whatever it is, sounds fun. i asked her if she would do one of my stories, she said okay. but she already has a story, and some guy made it, and the weird thing is, he&apos;s straight... but the story he gave Ira to draw was shounen ai... hm.. weird...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, posting a story...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GRASP&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the earlier millenniums, there were creatures that roamed the night; they were called accordingly as the supernatural. In the old text, they were harmful to humans, often utilizing the mortals for food and sport. Sometimes, tempting others to their side. However as the future drew to a close, it was obvious that the supernatural had to share with newer hypocritical creatures, created from the very humans which they mingled with.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	After the Impulse, a surge of insurmountable power caused by various power sources all over the world, humans were then affected at a physiologic and often times psychological scale, as their cells mutated to adapt to the sudden pulse, which was not noted until 45% of the population was diagnosed with what they call “The Genesis” or the abrupt renewal of the normal human cells to accommodate the pulses-however, the physical body could not cope and was automatically destroying itself in the process or violently disfiguring the body. Whatever the case, people who could not tolerate the abrupt mutation had a grim prognosis, and the people who did survive, eventually went crazy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Due to the instability of the world, the government unleashed one of the most powerful remnants of the ancient world, a vampire who was subdued in earlier times and passed on to each heir to the government seat. This vampire, placed in a comatose state for generations is called Amnestos- meaning “not remembered” he is to lead an elite force of trained assassins to try and “cleanse” the world of those filthy mutated people. However, Amnestos seems too, uh, post traumatized about being comatose for centuries. You can just imagine how hilarious this will be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Characters:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Amnestos- an ancient vampire, captured millenniums ago during the time of Vladimir Dracule, by Clerics. Lulled into a death like sleep, he has been awakened again to kill people who have been mutated beyond control and human reason. But because of his eternal slumber, he has strangely forgotten of his vampiric nature and insists he is human, easily being amazed by the new wonders of this century. However, his instinct to hunt blood still remains as he immediately killed those who opened his prison. He has the abilities of most vampires such as strength and elemental alchemy. Although he often forgets to utilize them in battle and instead becomes a burden to his team rather than the leader. He often acts like a child because he seems new to this world and is fascinated with trivial items-often getting hurt in his intense curiosity. However, whenever he is threatened, he reverts back to the vampire and kills without thought. He is super screwed because he is irresponsibly tactless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Lead [Lee-ya-d] – he immediately assumes command when he realizes that their team captain is to be a vampire. He just thinks they’re creepy, and in Amnestos case, rather annoying. However, he is sympathetic towards Amnestos and even changes his name to Gene, short for genesis, which means New-so that he will build a new life here rather than suffer with his traumatizing and forgotten past. He is extremely noisy and brash, with an eye patch over one eye, though it is shown that eye is fine. He utilizes guns as weapons and only specializes in long ranged combats, which leads to a disadvantage in melee battles. He loves to smoke and drink and has been known to be an extremely lucky gambler-albeit a compulsive one. He is always known to say, “Alright, let’s bet on who dies, gets hurt and who lives.” He has amazing confidence in himself, his skills and his team mates, although he tends to get attached rather quickly to everyone around him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Reme [R-ee-m] - He hates Lead’s guts, however, he is stuck with lead as he specializes in melee combat, having mutated, he has the ability to make the rapid growing cells in his body take shape and use it as a weapon, such as thickening his skin, using his nails as daggers or swords, and his hair which acts like a whip- yes he has long braided hair which can be melded into the likeness of a scorpion’s tail which acts as a third arm. He and Lead argues over the very trivial of things, but it is only because they are best friends, in a sense that he would die for the other. He doesn’t like Amnestos because he is a vampire, because he knows that they are scum-because something supernatural killed off his sister (though the sister said they were eloping). He does not understand how Lead can show “affection” to such a creature. Unlike lead, he is rather attached to his money and prefers to scrimp. Because he was trained at a very young age, he tends to be serious, sometimes aloof, to fool enemies into leniency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Is- probably the most idiotic in the group. He is known as the Nordic “brat” “imp” and more frequently called “moron”. Is has control over ice, because he was unearthed from the ice floes after the Impulse. He cannot tolerate heat because it will “melt his blood and cause the splinter to pierce him and he will die inside out.” Although it is shown that the heat has no effect on him whatsoever. He is always seen in shorts and a sleeveless shirt. Strangely though, his hair is vibrantly red and he is rather stupid because he is the youngest. When he meets Amnestos, he is happy to find someone he can rule over like a big brother and teaches the vampire patiently, Is always enjoys himself, going so far to play tricks and various gags on the members for his leisure. As much as he loves ice cream, he also enjoys spicy things-though this leads to comedic effects. As much as he has mastered his skill, he cannot create ice without water- but he makes due with his own blood.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Maelstrom- contradictory to his name, Maelstrom has the ability to cause a person or whatever to self combust with his stare. It is a very strange ability and the cause for it is not yet known. He is high and arrogant most of the time because he deems his craft is the most dangerous, lethal and most powerful. He often argues with Lead on leading the missions. He however, is weak in melee combat, as people who get too near make it harder for him to implode because of the proximity, as well as long range battles because he can only focus on one person at a time.  He sometimes says he is merely a coward-because unlike most of his comrades, he is afraid to die. He envies the voracity Lead has in carrying himself and often wishes he even had a speck of that confidence. He wears black clothes made from anti-explosive or anti-flammable clothing to avoid any burns. Typically the quiet guy till he needs to complain about Lead’s big headed-ness. He confides his feelings to Is and is very attached to the kid. He has a scar under his left eye from after he blew up his parents.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	Krux- he is another vampire who sees Amnestos and always tries to persuade him to come with him to explore the world. For some reason, Krux does not fear the sunlight. He is wild, aloof, but interestingly wise and intelligent for all his cunning and wit. He often aids Lead and the gang in various missions and often stands guard with them or for them. He also drinks blood, and like all vampires, carries the same abilities. Is reckons Krux likes Amnestos, a lot. Krux calls Amnestos by a different name, whether or not this is his real name is questionable, but whatever the case is, he is extremely drawn to Amnestos. Later, it is shown that he was cast away by other immortals because they feared and revered him for his ability to tolerate sunlight. He is always the one who reveals more of the vampire into Amnestos, and more of the human he never was. Krux has an immense, though strange, love for mortals and is often seen mingling with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Later it is discovered that the Impulse came from Amnestos, not by will however, as the Government itself forced the sub-conscious vampire to emit the strange waves which caused everything to undergo the vampire process, without the right factors. [Blood and flesh of the creator vampire] The government then released Amnestos to clean up their mess and rationalized that the pulse came from power sources over the world. The failed mutants the government created with Pulse were to be destroyed and those who fully mutated with unique abilities as the body stabilized and sustained itself were to be trained as soldiers for the government use, because they were to be the new generation of vampires, totally devoid of the need for blood and effective even in daylight and even if their abilities were not up to par with vampires, their unique evolution could even up their battleground. Krux says that the Impulse was merely a psychic call for help. However, the mind waves might have been strong enough to mess with the natural brain waves of humans and caused the start of mutation all over the body. Other humans whose brain waves were able to simulate the vampire waves were able to safely complete the mutation and emerged as a new and better species.</description>

  <title>My brother is back!!!! and... gender issues as a side trip!</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/38162.html</link>
  <description>wahahaha my baby brother&apos;s back!!!! *Bomb explodes somewhere* yay!!! he hasn&apos;t changed one bit! right now he&apos;s hibernating coz he&apos;s exhausted, i can&apos;t wait for him to wake up and we can play! i haven&apos;t played with my brother ,for, like, a whole month! coz he went to beijing. i never bother to call him up after the first week, coz i trust he can take care of himself. give him a break. ahh... but still, it&apos;s great to have him back! now i have someone to laugh with about manga and stuff! (so that people won&apos;t wonder why i laugh all of a sudden)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;today i went to school to finish up a requirement in the clinic. then i met our club coordiantor, he asked me if i could join the CES activity, team building thing in samal. i said sure, and he continued that &quot;this was only limited to a bunch of beautiful and handsome kids, and you fall in the category of handsome, so yeah, we thought to invite you.&quot; i think it was a joke... but jokes are half meant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so here i am again, i know i&apos;m a girl, but it&apos;s so fun to dress up like a boy and fooling everyone! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i then asked carl, &quot;ne, do i really look like a boy?&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;carl blinked, &quot;well, yeah. but if you&apos;re with me, you look like a little girl.&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i laughed, &quot;or maybe a guy who has long hair.&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;eyeroll, &quot;so it&apos;s like i&apos;m basically going out with a guy.&quot; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i chuckled, &quot;mm, but it&apos;s fun you know.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;did i ever tell you guys about the time we were having our duty at the OR, the OR nurse looked at me and cooed, &quot;oh, you&apos;re such a pretty girl!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my groupmates laughed and said, &quot;nah, don&apos;t say that, he&apos;s a boy.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and the OR staff just looked shocked. see in the OR, we wear scrub suits, they kinda look like pajamas, blue ones, with your name stitched above the pocket. not the whole name, just the first initials and then your full last name. of course, mine&apos;s P.J.ESTRADA. and in addition, we wear scrub caps, like shower caps, only made out of cloth. so it&apos;s kinda hard to tell the difference between males and females. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my male classmate who&apos;s name coincidentally is Kevin, was mistaken for a girl coz he&apos;s really white, and he&apos;s short. really, no one expects guys to be short-but they are!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the guys in teh OR stared at me and asked, &quot;Are you really a guy?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i chuckled, instead of answering yes, (coz the whole idea of tricking people was bubbling in excitement) i said, &quot;no, im a girl&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the irritating thing was, because my voice, as my groupmates call it, is &quot;cracking&quot; (like what happens in boys when they hit puberty) the guys didn&apos;t believe me and questioned if i was gay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when i finally explained that i was a girl (&quot;last time i took a shower, i swear my breasts were real and i had a vagina.&quot; said in a droll sarcastic manner)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the women of the staff laughed and pet me, &quot;yup, she&apos;s a girl, stop bothering her already!&quot; they then turned to my groupmates and gave them a sermon about not trying me into confusing my gender.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hm, this expereince is kinda funny y&apos;know? hehehe. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hm, when people say crossdressing,they mean that males wear female clothes and vice versa. accordsing to society&apos;s norms and niceties, it&apos;s the &quot;right&quot; thing to do. but what if i wanna dress up like a boy? would that be wrong? even whent it&apos;s fun and not just the right theing to do? hmmm.... society makes things so confusing. i&apos;ve read that transvestite is the label for these kinds of people who dress like the opposite sex. but what if it&apos;s just for fun? throw all caution to the wind and just try it and move on? would that be a deviation?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but then, i figured, &quot;Who the hell cares hwta they think! it&apos;s our lives and we can do whatever we want with it, whenever and however we want to!!!!!!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then i almost got hit by a taxi coz i wasn&apos;t looking. good thing carl pulled me back. don&apos;t worry, suffered no injuries. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;kudos to audree, congratulations on your successful party!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hm, i&apos;ll be posting a new story of mine that&apos;s been brewing for a while in the pc.</description>

  <title>Revamped Story!!!!!</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/37644.html</link>
  <description>In the earlier eras, a small snake made its way up the vines that composed the trunk of the Life tree. Eras passed and it grew too large and was ensnared in the trees large hanging vines. Frustrated, the snake lashed out blindly, sinking its poison filled fangs into the nearest object-the crystal apple. The object fell down from the tree, into earth, where it was forged into a mirror. However, unknown to all, the apple housed the snake’s poison, which, in due time was given its own life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The God who was supposed to be guarding the tree was tried for negligence in his shift in caring for the tree and its various fruits, as punishment for his crime, his newly born son was cast into the earth to suffer whatever effects the apple would take on the world of men. In his anguish, the God cursed the womb that held his son; whosoever would harm his child would receive punishment ten-fold! But whoever gave him kindness was rewarded ten-fold as well. The uterus fell into the earth, splitting the ground in half and leveling down the city it fell in, a couple found the odd balled muscle and took it to a temple, extorting it as a sacred object. However, as the womb peeled open, the curse itself started to weaken, and a 16 year old boy popped out-totally ending the curse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The couple, angry that their luck had diminished, started to take it out on the young teen. And the boy, thoroughly depressed, ran away into the desert lands where he hid in an abandoned shack or outhouse. Upon locking himself in, he discovered that within held a mirror, finely crafted. Instead of running off with it to start a new life or selling it to his “parents” he stared hard into the glass and saw his own pathetic scarred self. He swore that he’d become stronger, even if just a bit, to prove himself worthy of looking into a mirror. Whenever he then felt sad and wanted to cry, he ran off and hid in the cabin to look at the mirror. This he did frequently and no one ever found him out. This was because the area he had traversed into was known for having the highest body count in the continent, the cause of death being idiopathic/unknown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One day, the boy discovered that he had a nasty rash on his right arm; he scratched and scratched at it, to no avail till a large chunk of his flesh sloughed off and revealed glimmering scales. He then heard someone speaking to him, and that someone was the poison that had been given life in the form of a snake, that now inhabited his body in a parasitic manner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The snake tells the boy that he needs 99 essences of specific type of humans to create a body, if the boy does not do it, he will go and consume the boy till the snake will totally become the boy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So this is the beginning of the boy’s journey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the way he meets a group of five people and decides to join them, the group cannot be called a group because they are only together for one goal, to rid the world of the organization called Argus. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Argus is an elite organization that maintains the peace and balance of the new world. Unfortunately, they aren’t as just as people think they are (how can peace be kept without making sacrifices?) this ruling organization is very corrupt and plans to [I dunno but I prefer that they plan to squeeze out the world’s remaining resources for themselves-since the world they’re living in is in the present, but since the tree of life has fallen because the snake trapped in it grew big enough to absorb the life and squash the pitiful tree, chaos has ensued affecting mortals and immortals alike, so rules are loose, some are made and most are broke, essentially placing the peoples in the hands of death and the organization plans on surviving doomsday to recreate their own version of the world wherein they rule supreme.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The group which includes the boy plan to take the org down to bring a real sense of peace and justice. Unfortunately the group mates do not get along and they never attempt to, each with their own shade of black and white that has marred them into the twisted little beings that lead their own sad trails.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;End: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;	The boy’s rival, in the end became the host for the snake. The snake fuses with the body successfully and confronts the boy. Then he takes the boy into himself saying that to be complete he needs to take in the strongest essence-life, this is to solidify his status as a living organism, because the life given to him by the apple is only temporary and may fade away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Group&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The leader- nobody really listens to him or takes him seriously.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The happy loving person with enough love to light up the world- his name says everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The forgotten- nobody realizes he’s disappeared till they’re looking for him. Though they never really know he’s there in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The emo boy with the overbearing snake- he’s out to gather 99 essences of people to give the snake a body. But everyday that passes gives the snake more leverage over him and he is slowly being turned into a snake. He is a smart ass= the equivalent of philosopho? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Insert someone&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Insert the other one</description>

  <title>taming the wolf</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/37296.html</link>
  <description>wolves, canis Lupus, are quadrupeds who roam forests, mountains in packs of ten to forty, hunting together, doing everything to survive, they care a lot for their pack and will defend not only their territory but their members as well. fights within the pack are unheard of, which is the reason why wolves do so well in coordinating hunts. these are the ancestors of the common house dogs we have now, less regal, but still carrying that blood of the wild.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i&apos;m a lot like a wild wolf, and recently, i&apos;ve decided to up and challenge the alpha male of our pack. now in wolf society, that never happens.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;me and my dad have been fighting a lot lately. and it&apos;s probably because im so goddamn rebellious. whenever he tells me something (and i know it&apos;s for my own good but could he stop doing that? i think i know what&apos;s good for me! -- sometimes...) i just growl, bite my tongue and then he starts shouting with that booming voice of his. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;you know how i hate loud noises? well, thaere you have it. the reason Why i hate noise in the first place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then comes the physical attacks. oh no, he doesnt just throw a tantrum, he creates a hurricane. last time he tried to bust up the computer, just because i wouldn&apos;t turn it off and go to sleep. (even though it&apos;s summer dammit)okay maybe 12 midnight is too much, but come on! i won&apos;t die easily! then he tried to bust me up, bruised my shoulder, really, its a bit stiff but its okay now, barely a mark.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;when i still wouldn&apos;t budge, he woke up my mum and yelled at her to &quot;do something about your child!&quot; he even gave me a few nicknames, and he can be pretty creative when he wants to be, he called me &quot;anak ng demonyo&quot; last time. hm, the best thing i&apos;ve heard from him. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i dont know what&apos;s happening to me. i just turned 360 degrees and bit the hand that fed me. and even if said hand beat the crap out of me, i still didn&apos;t stop snapping and biting. like i really want to hurt him, push him to the edge, like there&apos;s a voice in me that yells &quot;go on, make him hate you! you know it&apos;s what you want&quot; know what? that horrifies me the most. the fact that i want my father to hate me, its terrifyiong, thinking that i wont be able to make fun of him, play with him, just be his little kid again...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;i dont know what&apos;s wrong with you anymore!&quot; these are the words that he always says to me whan we fight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;know what? that&apos;s fine, coz i dont know myself anymore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my brother left for Beijing today for a study tour. i was with him when he left, and i really wanted to kiss him and hug him really tight, but i didn&apos;t, i hung back, gave him  my toy bear and told him, &quot;for company.&quot; he&apos;s gonna be gone for six weeks... man i am so depressed. he&apos;s not just my baby brother, he&apos;s my best friend! i tell him my woes and we talk and end up laighing and bullshitting the troubles away. it&apos;s like watching someone dear to you die. i know that he;ll come back. but think about it, what he learns there, what happens to him, i wont be there and he&apos;ll come back a changed person... same as dying... oh man i reaally miss him! i can&apos;t function properly without my buddy! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i was reading Saiyuki manga today and laughing, coz there were some hilarious stuff, and my maid asked me, &quot;what&apos;s up with you?&quot; in a scared way coz she thought i had gone insane... well, i told her, &quot;it&apos;s funny, this book...&quot; *smile, look around then sigh* &quot;jan jan&apos;s not here... i&apos;ve got nobody to share this with...&quot; siiiiigggghhhhhhh&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i remember i was the one who got his report card and the teacher stared at me and said, &quot;you&apos;re jan&apos;s sister? but you don&apos;t even look alike!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sigh... mum says six weeks will fly by, and pretty soon, i;ll have my precious little brother back.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i doubt i can go on that long and not notice him gone...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i do hope that 6 weeks will go by that fast... i really want my baby brother back. :(</description>

  <title>Senses</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/36992.html</link>
  <description>i am so into music right now. i mean wherever i go i need to have my i[od with me... otherwise i&apos;d die of boredom! no, i am not deaf yet! (but the volume of my ipod may beg to differ) lotta genres! rnb, country, soundtrack, david archuleta, nickelback... ahhh sweet sound of... SOUND!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i&apos;ve finished up reading the vampire chronicles by anne rice(the three main ones at least), yeah, see, my autistic cousin has been reading them, and because i love my cousin, i read the trilogy to &quot;connect&quot; with him. it&apos;s okay, just proved the fact that they are gay (also forcing my classmates to reel back in horror after i revealed the truth) its sooo fun to crush infatuation!!! you should see their faces! (unfortunately some are still in denial, but that can be easily fixed by reading aloud in front of the class. with LOTS of witnesses) i think that&apos;s the reason why i&apos;m into boys into boys... i like to destroy any infatuation anyone may have on them! especially if they don&apos;t believe me. mwehehehehe...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my classmates told me i probably was a dog in my past life- that could be true, after all, i was the only one who said, &quot;that guy smells like Tuberculosis...&quot; now who in teh world sniffs out a client with TB? i tell you i&apos;m the one and only!! and on my defense, he really was diagnosed with TB, even before i read the diagnosis. o_o amazing!!! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hm a TB sniffing nurse... heheheh i tell you, the only way to tell if it&apos;s tb is that the smell is sharp, penetrates your nostrils and makes you hack like heck. worser than tobacco smoke or exhaust. don&apos;t you just love it when you have intensified senses? except on teh occasional detection of foul odors like farts and shit. whoo, let me tell you, those are the days... XP&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;today, my teacher said, &quot;you know, i read group 2&apos;s case reprts and their english is really terrible and disgusting, somthing like visaya being translated to english. you should let people edit the works- you know i really admire ms. estrada&apos;s english, she is really good, you know you should let her edit your works, she is you&apos;re groupmate anyway&quot; you could imagine how my heart swelled, at least i&apos;d exelled in something everyone else has difficulty on! VIVA STELLA MARIS ACADEMY for their damned good english teachers! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;my mom just chuckled and said, &quot;achi that&apos;s your talent.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;hell yeah, an IQ test score of 700+ in English proves that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway on the far side of the world, my classmates were nagging me to stand up for myself, they kept saying that i was always being pushed around by authoritative figures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;see, this week is case study week, it means our whole group (10 people) will be divided into two (5 per subgroup 10people/2subgroups= 5 per subgroup) unfortunately, all my groupmates (subgroup 2) are authoritarian. you know, the Bossy people who like to command weaklings to do their bidding, no matter how gruesome it is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;unfortunately, that weakling is me. and subgroup 1 has been worrying over me because they know i was being pushed around, they were the only ones who would sympathize and defend me. wow, i am such a baby! even here i depend on people to DEFEND me for god&apos;s sakes! i think i recall sheila and me and a scene in teh classroom... gah,,, :c &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;where oh where is my beloved sheila?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;kind of funny how much you seem to change only to have that thought blow up in your face...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, i did change a bit, i&apos;m thinking of running for officer in our CES VSP club thing since my senior kept recommending me for the position... kind of funny really... i was never into clubs in high school....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, where are my fucking manners?! hehehe how are you? the world is changing, are you changing along with it? hope you are, maybe for the better! just remeber, it wont really matter, you&apos;re still you! that&apos;s the best part!</description>

  <title>what you got?</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/36734.html</link>
  <description>this month has brought me utmost joy! especially on my health and sanity!!! now you&apos;ve got to know i&apos;m being damn sarcastic.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, i;ve been to tagum, handling emergency cases that aren&apos;t really worth travelling two hours out there in the &quot;bukid&quot; for. i mean come on! pregnant women? davao has women multiplying like rabbits! car accidents? we have them by the dozen! considering davao is more advanced in civilization than tagum (hey, it&apos;s more rural than urban, i mean c&apos;mon, acres of rice fields on either side of the road?!)poor unfortunate sick children? oh don&apos;t worry, we have a department full of them that restocks every 8 minutes! well, i dont wanna make this entry seem evil and boring so i&apos;ll liven it up! here&apos;r some fun facts i l;earned while &quot;working&quot; in Tagum DRH:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. government nurses treat patients with IQ lower than jungle people like shit. especially the pregnant teens and stupid people who think &quot;maintenance drugs&quot; mean stopping when you&apos;re pregnant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. EVERYBODY LIES this is suppose to be number one but what the hell. when asking people when they got the disease/ailment/injury, never expect a straight answer. they ALL lie. for sympathy maybe. they suck at it and makes you wanna punch them. when asking whether they&apos;ve gotten meds, vaccines, etc. forget it, it&apos;s never true or information is too insufficient to really matter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. sometimes you can be amazed by man&apos;s natural instinct to get wasted then pick a fight with the first living object they meet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. hell, what the heck, be amazed by man&apos;s ability to get drunk in the MIDDLE OF THE DAY.&lt;br /&gt;5. men&apos;s penises are all jelly like. i&apos;m not sure if that&apos;s true for all of the male specimens, but i&apos;ve done skin preparations for surgery and it&apos;s not a pleasant thing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. NEVER DO SKIN PREPARATIONS ON MALE SPECIES. especially if said skin prep. involves genitalia. result usually is a 38.3*C fever. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. fetuses are never meant to be flaunted. so if a miscarriage happens, don;t bring the damn fetus into a hospital full of expectant mothers 9 months pregnant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. nobody likes the 3-11 shift. it&apos;s when the aetas and whatever tribal people arrive. it&apos;s usually a bad experience (lotsa nurses yelling at tribal people) and a smelly one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. if ever you&apos;re excited about being assigned in the surgery department, don&apos;t be. chances are, there will be no emergency surgeries. aww too bad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;QUOTABLE QUOTES:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;people who love children have never been health workers&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;what i hate about &quot;pedia&quot;? the word and all associated with it.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;people who have loads of spare time tend to have children &amp;gt; 10 and can never afford to vaccinate them properly&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;ob-gynes tend to get irritated by women who love the process of being pregnant but dont like being pregnant&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;abortion, it&apos;s the only way to go! *eye roll*&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;doctor, i feel dizzy&quot; &quot;grab a chair and wait your turn&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;nurse, i&apos;ve been vomiting blood and... my god, i&apos;m bleeding!&quot; &quot;could you tell me your name so i can finish you&apos;re record?!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;i&apos;ve been sick for some time now...&quot; &quot;ooh, wow, what made you decide to go to the hospital? an epiphany?&quot; (filipinos usually prolong professional treatment till the worst has come)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;gay people are the scariest things in the ER&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;people assume you lie when you tell the truth so when you tell the truth, it will seem to be a lie.&quot; &quot;... i&apos;m lesbian&quot; &quot;hah, everybody lies.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SCENES&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ADMITTING SECTION:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;unsa man sakit ana nay?&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;nahadlok man siya ug hangin.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;nurse! ayaw na gunita! rabies na!!&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*fans rabies patient* *patient makes violent gesture and huddles up in blanket*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;doctor: &quot;ganahan kaayo ko sa ilahang reaction bah pag paypayan nimu!&quot; *cheerfully laughing way*&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OBSTETRICS:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doctor: bika.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Patient: doc, sakit kaayo&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;d: bika na diha bah, dili lang ikaw ang pasyente!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p: dili jud.... ungh....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;d: &amp;^%**&amp;^*&amp;^*&amp;!!

  <title>sheer imbecilic stupidity</title>
  <link>http://sgt-sagara.livejournal.com/36261.html</link>
  <description>i&apos;ve been told a lot of times that my eloquency in english never fails to shock my classmates and teachers into gaping mouths and that has been my pride. so when you insult my usage of every word, you insult my pride. therefore i had to hold myself back when my classmate told me &quot;you use words that are too difficult to understand&quot; in my defense i told her, &quot;it&apos;s normal for me to use those words! i can&apos;t think of anything simpler&quot; i added, inside my head- for your tiny brain to comprehend. why not try screwing your brain around for some synonyms instead of trying to get me to lay off the good english. i mean come on, there is nothing difficult to understand about the word &quot;AWED&quot; if i heard my brother tell me he didn&apos;t know that word, i would&apos;ve smacked him upside the head and told him he was disowned. (and would you know it, my brother KNEW what that fucking word meant therefor i conclude that my classmates are idiots)&lt;br /&gt;said classmate also loves to insult the fact that i cannot speak tagalog and visayan correctly and she takes pride in that. i think she&apos;s just pissed off coz i know english is more useful in the world unlike tagalog or visaya.&lt;br /&gt;God knows i dont wanna be reduced into idiotic gaping fish faces when consulted with english so i read the dictionary occasionally, tinker with the encyclopedias and just plain read. unlike them i dont wanna end up with grammatical errors while reportiung and mispronouncing words they shouldn&apos;t. so in my defense, i lower my use of english but not enough for them to understand me coz i dont wanna be like them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;god help me i need to talk to someone in english!!! someone who doesnt stare and say &quot;wow, nosebleed&quot; good lord, i wanna prove that filipinos can speak better english than them foreigners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, so far, i&apos;m still here, waiting to converse with someone who cannot bore me and has pretty good english skills (so far, carl&apos;s the only one who can match my eloquence thank god there are still sane people around me) &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, am glad to see you guys are posting more kekekekeke gives me something to pass time with hehehe real life is better than drama just so you know.</description>
