I am a monster now. I have the desire to kill. I now realize the entire five years of fighting for a world, I was just a puppet. Now I realize I've heard the devil's call before. I remember hearing it when the bomb went off. I remember feeling something go into me like air but thicker. I have something evil in me. Something I can't control.

My life as a kill sword was just me being a puppet. I've killed so many people that I've always wondered why I killed them. I always wondered why I would pick up the sword. I remember every time I killed before I kept hearing a deep voice over and over again. I was just being controlled by something else.

I've been a puppet from the age of fourteen to nineteen. I kept on killing for the ruler of Hell. My master. I thought I was building a world but really, I was breaking it. I was killing innocents for no reason. I was killing people who I had no idea of who they were. I destroyed a perfectly good world and for what? I've only condemned the people I've slaughtered to Hell. 

 I am still his puppet. I'm still under his control. That is why no one must ever seek me. I'm a danger to all. I'm a danger to my friends. I have to stay away. No matter what I can't go back to them.
