My Name is Dakota and I am from a different universe but unlike Roxas I died in my other life and I started here as a child. Some sixth sense made me be able to sense that Roxas was gonna go through this one day but differently it was almost like he didn't get his personality till later on in life but I'm not sure how this whole thing works. Why am I telling you all this because maybe this is happening to someone else out there whether it's like my case or Roxas case I want you to know you are not alone in this world. Now here is part of my story.
I was maybe in my fifties honestly I can't remember what age I was in my other life. I was walking home from the grocery store when I walk by a strange man,sounds like he is talking to himself so I decided to pay him no mind. A few seconds later he walks up to me and asks if I have any cash on me I remember I have a five on me and I gave it to him.
"Is this all you have" he asks frustrated
"Yes I'm sorry I only brought enough to pay for my groceries I only had that because their was a slave going on." I said calmly.
I started to walk away, I may have gotten a few steps before I felt warm on my back. It started to get hot and affecting a bigger area, falling forward I felt something reach in my pocket and pull out my wallet. The man had stabbed me repeatedly and was now going through it and I started feeling like I was slipping. I couldn't understand what happen next but I felt nothing almost like I was weightless. The next thing I knew I was being born as a baby I was conscious but could not control anything I'm guessing due to fact that it wasn't connected yet to my body. it wasn't till I started walking that I gained control but decided to still play it as I was a child just so I wouldn't throw anybody off. I learned as much as I could about this world, got through school fairly easy and had some near death experiences with categories.
Hunting categories became natural I guess that's how I made it to the big three with my partners Eve and Shane. I didn't meet Eve until I was in the top three and we became partners but me and Shane had met dozens of times before we became a team. I would say we were friends really because everytime we met it was to solve some sort of conflict. We had the same objective but different ways of reaching it and in the end he would take lead and I would provide support for him, by the end of any conflict he would thank me and say "I'm glad you were there we make a great team". When it was the briefing of the Gen six transition he saw me in the crowd and once it was over her came up to me asking me what I was doing there. "I'm here to help protect the world and also I think this might be the only thing I'm good at." When he heard my answer he immediately started laughing and said "we are a lot a like let's be a team". It wasn't really a question from day one you should form a team being a solo hunter can be difficult and even down right lonely. Sure by gen six most of the side affects where pretty low on the percentage but people were still a little hesitant to be there for you. (There is a lot of pluses though here like the number one thing is racism is not a thing in this world no one really notices skin color I guess they don't have time to worry about that) Me and Shane trained hard worked our way through the ranks and when we reached the level to go international we meet Eve. She was amazing we meet her on our seventh or eighth mission we needed to save a village that insisted on protecting themselves and did rather well until that day. We dropped down and took out a pack of savages (They are berserker type of werewolves if they get shot in the heart something happens they began to turn red and are even more powerful, when this happens they are twice as strong, fast and even more blood thirsty). Once me and Shane got the pack back up arrived and made a quadrant sweep to see if there were any strays, after they were done the medics came in to treat the wounded. That's when we saw Eve she was running back and forth stabilizing people doing on site reattachments like if it was nothing. She saved almost 47% of the village which is a record since the average is usually 28%. once done we walked up to her with our proposition of teaming up but before we even got to her she pulled out a stack of papers from her bag and handed them towards us " if you can agree to what's on there I'll join you" she said before walking off to the next patient.
It was a pretty standard contract that's she would get an even amount of payment when we turned in our completed missions and that under no circumstances that we don't hold her back and if we did she would kill us. Looking back at it, wasn't my best decision but we did need a medic and that maybe it was just a bluff. She actually took a liking to us after our third mission, she gave us the closest thing to a compliment that anyone has ever gotten out of her. It was our common goal that made us top three and that was making sure the world could be a safer place and we did just that. It was the day that when I met Roxas that I knew we had to start looking for potential seventh Gens. The formula for seventh Gens was under development but they were gonna used a different method of picking candidates. Recommendations were gonna be the new way to do it testing youth with a test to see how they would respond and handle a situation. A way to find leaders, warriors, anybody with exceptional skills, and Roxas was my choice.
"Shane there's a civilian down there next to those dead categories" I said seeing someone leaned up against a tree, I was on a small cliff overlooking the area where a school was located. Shane jumped out of the viper follow be Eve because Shane's size he dropped down like a ton of bricks his landing strategy especially when he needed to get down quickly. Eve on the other hand feather fell until she was only a hundred yards from the ground. Eve developed a special skill that would make her bones hollow like so she could glide in a sense. They quickly took down a wave of the categories and then Eve grabbed the civilian and got him to a place where she could stabilize him. Once she was out of the way I lined up my rifle and started to fire at the categories that were further ahead of Shane (one of our more flawless strategies). When all was done I went to go see the civilian that's when I felt something Roxas gave off this aura I can't really explain it but I just knew he would be like me at one point. (If he could take out these thing while he's missing something just imagine once he gets what he is missing) After we took him back to the council he meet with them, I went in after they dismissed him and I recommended him to be a subject for the seventh gen once he graduated. The council accepted my request as he was only the eighty-nineth person recommended. Now it's clear I made the right decision and I was right about my feeling that he was like me.
