Dawn Journal
By: Roka Date: February 15, 2013, 1:28 am
---------------------------------------------------------
[center] Background [/center]
Roka Velius, born to Celia and Mike Velius in a old town called
Naminone on a island quite a distance from japan. They were a
happy married couple, and they named Roka because of the
sounding 'Ro-ka' and the meaning of its' words: Wave, due to
Celia's love for the waves from the ocean. But soon after Roka's
birth, they were attacked by a pack of demon wolves and Mike was
seriously injured. Even though Mike survived, he actually died
and was possessed by one of the demon wolf. Three months later,
he killed Celia using a mysterious illness when she attempt to
flee the island with her son in fears of the demon's wraith.
[center]---[/center]
Roka suffers nothing but abuses, tortures, and hellish
experiences from his strange abusive father. The peoples that
lived in the town assumed he was possessed by a demon, lost his
spirit when his wife died, or hated his son. Of course no one
know the real truth... The demon wanted to kill Roka, but was
strangely wary of him, instead he tortures him, in hope he would
dies.
As he was growing up, Roka founded musics that help him escape
reality whenever he find peaceful places. And then he met a
strange lost boy who was called Kuro because of his Black hair,
eyes, and a black band around his neck. They became friends and
he even taught Roka many things, including to have fun and to
smiles.
[center]---[/center]
It didn't last long when his father found out about Kuro... Mike
punished his son by inflicing a large cut on Roka's back with a
big butcher knife, cutting from Roka's left shoulder down to his
right hip in diagonal direction. It was one of his worst scars
he had to bear because it reminded him of Kuro's disappearance
from that day... never to be seen again, since then he began to
hide his feelings and carry on.
When he was seven, a stray demon broke into the house and
brutally killed his father infront of Roka to feast on infront
of Roka, who was being tortured again by Mike. However, before
Mike was killed, he revealed that he was the one who killed and
hidden Kuro away... Learning the truth of Kuro's disappearance
and from the frighten experiences from the spider demon, Ankur
awoken and protected him, that was also when he gotten his
second glimps of the Realm of New Life...
He ran away from the broken house as the polices came, and
stumble upon a woman named Nadia, who claimed to be a very close
friend of Celia Velius... Roka was taken to Cerulean City with
Nadia and since then been living at the orphanage, becoming
fonds of kids and continues to hide his feelings as his scars
and past haunt him...
[center]Ankur, the Guardian of New Life[/center]
One of the day sleeping on a hill with Kuro, he was taken to a
world of endless dawn skies... he was surprise by the floating
islands and felt like it was his home. Since he looked like he
was flying, he taken joys in it and explores the realms. The
trip was short though as he stopped at one of the floating
island where there was a strange stone marking. When he touch
it, many voices were heard in his mind, all from different
peoples. He learned that he was Ankur, the guardian of New Life
and one of the five great gate keepers. After hearing other
voices where he couldn't understand, he was suddenly awoken.
Shaking his head, he wonders waht it meant...
He didn't get another glimpses until the fateful day... after
the demon killed his father, the spider demon suddenly stopped
in his track and couldn't move and soon was engufted in the
lights when it try to attack Roka. Taking this as a chance, Roka
ran out of the house after taking the pistol from Mike's room.
He kept running and running, as far as he can go, he suddenly
tripped over the hill and fell unconcious. It was there he was
taken to the realm of New life again, only... it was
different...
Instead he was greeted with the terrible destructions... there
were many destroyed islands, crumbling down and there were some
on flames. There were armies of all kinds of flying demons
attacking them. He notice himself having a strange dagger and
chains were around him. 'I need to find Sable and the others to
protect them!' Roka was surprise by this though and notice that
he was being pursued by the small armies of powerful dragons
along with other flying demons and flew away to escape their
pursue. Unexpectably, Ankur get shot in the back by one of their
blast. As he was falling through the skies, he suddenly awoken
by a woman named Nadia... and since then, he never gotten any
glimpses or memories as his own past haunt him...

The Past and Memory
By: Roka Date: March 8, 2013, 7:06 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
[center][/center][center]His Dark Past[/center]
He been struggling with his pasts, Logan's words didn't help,
only further questioned him. After a talk with mitsuki, he
decided to stay on the clouds for awhile as Ankur to mediate and
to face his feelings. He found out that in his dreams, he could
laid on the clouds and can even touch them, so that why he
wasn't worry about falling through them. So he began to enjoys
the winds' sounds and warmth feelings to the cloud domains.
[center]Kuro[/center]
He was standing on a wet ground, surrounded by a old woods, he
notice Kuro in a distant, who was shaking his head at a younger
Roka. "No no no, your suppose to smile like this! Not frown!" He
said, while trying to make a funny smile himself, after many
fail attempts, roka finally couldn't hold back his laughings and
he smile at him, to which Kuro cheers in victory. "Your so
stubborn, Kuro... why would you risk your own life to befriend
someone like me...?" Roka frown slightly, where Kuro only laughs
in respond. "Cause your my friend! I not scared of your father
or anyone! Beside, I got you to smile! One point for me! Now
your losing in this game, haha!" He ran off, laughing as he
taunt Roka to chases him, to which he did. Soon roka was having
funs as well and they began to laughs together.
Roka smiles to himself when he saw this, remembering how Kuro
tries to get through his harsh shell. He still felt sadness and
guilt when he remember that he died because of him... shaking
his head, he delves into the memory a bit further. On the beach
on sunny day sat Kuro and young roka, he remember that it was a
week before Kuro disappeared. Kuro suddenly look at him and took
off his black band and wrap it around Roka's left upperarm where
he could hide it with longsleeves. "Here try it on! There, now
you should remember of me and alway smiles!" He said happily
wherea roka was looking at it in confusions. "Isn't this your
treasure...?" he ask. "Yup. Alway remembers me, I do love you,
your my only friend, got it roka? No Guilt, no sadness, I don't
regret meeting you. Likewise I shall do the same! Once we're old
enough, let escape the island together. You won't have to
suffers anymore then... We can live together so we won't be
alone too!" Roka tilt his head to side at kuro's words and
couldn't help but smiles and hugged him. "Yeah... let leave the
island... I promise to remember you too then..." Roka pulled
away. "Ahh I wish we could make a boat and escape already! I
hate seeing you suffers new wounds everyday, roka!" he frown at
the new bandages that wrapped around Roka's neck and left legs,
roka look down and shook his head, where kuro similes again and
lean again. "Hey! At least you got someone to care about,
right?" Kuro ask, roka couldn't help but blush deeply and pouts
as Kuro began to laughs.
Roka himself chuckles at the memory and shook his head. 'Your
right, Kuro... I should've kept my promise. I'm sorry for
letting my past caged me...' he though to himself as he explores
more of his memories, slowly coming in terms with himself...
[center] The Two winged Beasts ~Ankur's Memory~[/center]
After mediating for a day, night fallen and he soon fallen as
well to the clouds' embrace.
Roka awoke slowly though, still sleepy but notice he was in a
bed... that was strangely too big for just one person. Until he
found out why, infront of him, laid the two sleeping winged
beasts. They both had a strange horn and had a features similiar
to lion or wolf, the difference though was they had wings! And
they were slightly bigger than him. One of them had white fur
while the other was black. The white one awoke and walked over
to him and licked his cheek, waking him up fully, his own voice,
or rather Ankur's, respond to her. "Good morning, Lulu." He got
out of the bed and began to stretches his arm as he look out
through the windows in his giant bedroom, seeming to belong to
an ancient palace, seeing few floating islands, he notice there
were black spots flying around, and it revealed to be some
harpies, and there were even some flying humanoid ones. He
looked down and see that there were no grounds below! The oceans
were distances down below, only a blur. It as if he was in the
floating palace!
Roka heard a female voice, from behide and to his shock, it was
coming from Lulu. "Ankur, what are you thinking about?" she ask.
Ankur chuckles slightly and lean against the window edge. "I
thinking about heading to Insula. Then maybe have a tea with
Selene, if she willing to let me in that is." he answers and
chuckle when the black beast came over and sat next to the white
and snuggles in her white furs. "Your quiet and loyal, yet your
not afraid to shows your loves, Mukhlis." he said, scratching
the black beast's head slightly to where Mukhlis simply answer
with a nods to the slightly blushing Lulu. "Wah, stop
embarrassing me you two!" She said gigglings before running off.
"Last one to breakfast jump in the cold water first!" She said
as Ankur and Mukhlis look at each other before running after
her. "Hey! Cheater!!!" Ankur yelled after her as the memory
ended.
Roka awoke on the cloud to the dawn lights, still in ankur's
form. He was still smiling from the dream. "Wow, never knew
Ankur lived with anyone, or rather two winged beasts..." he was
still amazed by this memory, happy from his memory, he went back
to meditating on the 2nd day.

The Weapon and Insula Memory
By: Roka Date: March 15, 2013, 12:53 am
---------------------------------------------------------
[center]The Weapon and Insula Memory[/center]
Descenting in the memories from the shrine. He didn't expect
this scene so suddenly...
He seem to be floating on one of the islands... Many chains
floats around him and around many islands. Its' size seem to be
huge, endless chains going around. He spot the armies of flying
demons in a great distant, and light beams began to shot out
from the round objects on the links, all hitting the armies. It
almost like a bullet of lights or a light blast...
He then flew as the Amber chains keep blasting off the demons
while some were forming shields, trying to protect the
inhabitans and islands. Ankur began to slice some of the demons
down with his daggers, using dawn lights to increase its'
damages and sizes, an example when he stabbed one of the giant
dragon, the blade suddenly extended and it pierced through until
it came out from its' back, killing it. Another example was when
the daggers became bigger again and he began to spins, cutting
down in the waves of demons. What seem like an endless fights,
the scene fades away and a new one appeared, this time he was
not greeted by destruction thankfully.
Instead when he open his eyes through ankur, see a giant
tree...? He notice that he was on a floating island, and few
thoughs began to appeared. 'Insula? Why is that name sound
familiar... could it be the name of this one?' Roka though to
himself as he watches Ankur walk around the island like a
morning walk, it was peaceful... "I wonder... everday a new life
in the shape of eggs will appear in this realms... Then it
become born into many worlds... maybe possibly to other realms
when it hatch... It a strange thing to think about... don't you
agree, Muklis?" he ask, infront of him were the two beasts, who
were flying in the sky when Muklis landed down, he nodded with a
tilt to his head. "It is quite strange... but it is quite
soothing, to know that a new life is given a chance...
especially in this realm as well, Ankur..." he said, his tones
was quiet, yet it was firm, as if he was the wise but very kind.
Ankur smiles and scratch Muklis' head a bit. "Yea, it very
soothing..." he said, agreeing with the black beast as he watch
a group of flying wolf cubs, seeming to be playing a game with
Lulu.
Roka felt himself waking up from the meditation Stance with a
single thought... 'I will protect the Dawn of Life...'

The Dark Memory
By: Roka Date: March 29, 2013, 1:39 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
[center]Dark Memory[/center]
A young Roka sat in a dark void, in what seem to be his old
bedroom, hugging his knee like a scared child as his whole
abdomen and his back was largely bandaged, Roka remember this as
one of the times where he felt the sadness... and guilt. While
he was used to the physical tortures, he wasn't used to the
mental ones, especially emotions. He started to think it was his
fault, while he couldn't figure out why his relatives died at
same time at one of the rare reunion a long time ago, he knew
exactly why Kuro disappeared... he was killed because of Roka...
just like the others. Peoples surrounded Roka, including all of
his relatives, peoples he once know or close to and once around,
even his father and Kuro was one of them, and one by one they
disappear, leaving Roka alone to suffers alone as he remember
the tortures he suffers through.
"Why... why does everyone dies around me... stop it... I don't
want this anymore, I want to protect, but they just die anyway!
Why!" he hugged his knee further and bury his head in it as the
sounds of tortures ringed through his ears. "I'm sorry... I'm
sorry... I don't want anyone else to dies..." the young roka
said softly to himself as a new peoples appear, his friends...
his new family... Nero, nicolina, sindell, even Logan and
Abigale... but then his eyes widen and he covers his ears as
different screams began to ring. "No no no no... I'm sorry...
please don't die... stop it!" he yelled at himself as the
scene shift, his friends lies dead around him.
The memory shift to ankur's, he notice the moments that he was
lying down on the ground, pinned down by one of the dragons'
claws as one demon prepare to bring his death... Roka remembers
that there were inhabitans in his realm and the though of them
getting killed after he died made him even feel guiltier... he
went back to the dark void and the young roka huddle himself,
burying his head again in his knee.

[center]The Dancing Petals[/center]
As Roka was making a journey to his hometown, while sleeping in
the boat's quarters, a memory of Ankur appear again...
Instead of his own realm, he seem to be standing in a field of
flowers, soaking in the spring's sunlight when he heard a
familiar soft giggles nearby. "It feel really nice in my realm,
isn't it, Ankur?" Hana said softly, smiling at him from few
feets away. "It relaxing, sometime it nice to take a break from
our duties." he said softly with a calm smile.
The petals began to dances on the calm breezes as Hana look up
in the sky for a moment. "We still have our emotions, regardless
of our immortal-like life span... Sable and Selene loves each
other, showing that it possible for even Guardians to love
someone or something..." Ankur follow her gaze and look up in
the sky as well, watching the petals dancing into spiral-like
ballads of flowers. "I wonder if I would love someone like
that..." he said softly.
The two guardians continues to watch the flower dances as the
gentle breezes carries the petals. Soon Roka woke up to be
greeted by Sunrise light, seeing the island in the distance, he
still can't help but smiles a bit, having more confidence in
facing what will be ahead, knowing that Ankur was not alone
unlike Roka...
