[h1][color=f7976a]ANARU KAHURANGI[/color][/h1] [b]Location: Drum Island[/b] [b]Interacting in some way with:[/b] [@LokiLeo789] [@BCTheEntity] [@JmerlRobot] [@Ira] [@RyoRyoRyoken] [@CannedBread] [@dragonmancer] [@Renny] [@Hillan] (I THINK I got everyone.) Anaru was, fairly frustrated with how today went, as he pierced through the giant tree-monster-thing, he thought back to when he was on marine ship he took to the island, and remembered his hopes for today, he wanted to put the horrors of the Conomi Islands behind him, Ex-Captain Freya's frown, when she realized Anaru was hiding such an important secret, Anaru's realization, that capturing two pirates, and killing a third, was not even close to worth all those lives, he and other people lost, and worst of all, the sinking feeling in his gut, as much as he hated to admit it, he blamed himself more than the Vice Admiral, he could have prevented the destruction, if he just spoke up, about how dangerous this whole thing was. He was broken out of his thoughts, when he hit the ground, causing a large crater to form under him, the ground torn apart where he landed. as got up, staggering, from the destruction he made, his overuse of his life return came back to hit him, hard. his entire body structure felt like it had knives twisting around in every muscle, it was agony, and brought Anaru to his knees. While Anaru clenched his teeth, and struggled with kneeling, the Buddhistava statue behind him, felt the aftermath of Anaru's final attack, as the wind around the hole in its stomach, rotated violently, as if it was also torn apart by Anaru, as cracks spread across the entire Statue's frame, before it shatters into a rain of wood. Anaru felt the rain of wood, as he managed to force his head to the sea, just in time to see the pirates retreating, that was it, he failed again, and now, the Red Hood Pirates, were even more powerful, but much worse than that, the people on Drum Island, they were caught in the crossfire, this was too much for Anaru to bare, so many deaths on his hands, he couldn't handle it. A tear rolled down Anaru's cheek, followed by several more, soon he was crying, not for his failure, but for the people who died, both today, and on the Conomi Islands, but a Marine couldn't appear weak, especially not in front of comrades, that would put seeds of doubt in people's minds, so Anaru mustered up all his strength, and began to stand. [color=f7976a][b]"BAAAAAHAHAHA, YOU PIRATES, I MAKE A VOW NOW!"[/b][/color] Anaru's voice seemed to shake the island, worse than his impact. [color=f7976a][b]"AS LONG AS I LIVE, I WILL NOT STOP DEFENDING THE INNOCENT, UNTIL I GET RETRIBUTION, FOR ALL THOSE THAT HAVE DIED TODAY, AND AT THE CONOMI ISLANDS!"[/b][/color] Anaru's body was screaming at him to stop, and tears were still streaming down his face, but he walked, he had to find the Vice Admiral, to make sure he was alright, to save him, to do SOMETHING that he wouldn't be ashamed of, he just hoped Adrian managed to survive, that man had a heart of Justice, but he didn't see Adrian anywhere during the battle, he was worried that when the prison was destroyed, Adrian was among those killed.
