9th Generation; The Celestial Knight Part 1

Prologue

Hi. My Name is... umm, Tony. Gods I haven't used that name in a while. How long has it been? A couple of millennia? An aeon maybe? I lost track of time drifting through the endless 'Void'. A 16 year old drifting aimlessly inside of a black hole. Of course that's how you would see me as. I chose to look like myself when I was 16 to mortals like you, as it was on my 16th birthday that my life changed. But nevertheless I do still feel like a 16 year old, as if time was just an imagination. Still I feel like I'm regenerating less and less atoms each second, slowly being crushed to death ... and soon ... eventually ... even I will perish.

How did I end up in this place? Well let's just say that everything that could have gone wrong, ultimately did. 'Space's' power was far superior than I had ever imagined. Ian, Nick, Asia... None of us were strong enough. Not even me. And I will most likely pay for it with my very own life. But before I disappear from the face of the existence itself, I need to make this known to the rest of the universe, all of it.

That's why I'm inscribing this memory trace. Kiun said that it was like saving a copy of your memory the way you remember it, almost like watching back a recording of your life but with the ability to add notes. Notes that will integrate with every particle in our universe waiting for someone to decipher them into the language of your species. I was hoping that maybe, someday, I could regenerate enough of my power to break free from this hell-hole but it seems that it's turning my power against me. I've let all my friends down.

Everyone I care about is most likely dead but there's no time to grief now. There's just not enough time left. Hopefully the next Generation can finally restore balance to the universe, that is if there even is a species left for a generation to be chosen from. And if the universe we know is destroyed, hopefully a new one is born in it's place and this message might still get stored in the code. So if you're seeing this, you might be a member of the next Generation. The 10th. I'm using nearly all of my remaining power to get this message out, making my life even shorter... Take this as a reminder to never underestimate the forces of evil and always trust your friends.

"sigh" Here I go then.
