Excalibur

The date is April 25, 2005. For a thousand years, I have wandered the Earth and slaughtered millions of humans. I have lost count of how many souls I have taken. I've started to question who I am and why I'm fighting. Am I just a murderer? Arthur, you've been with me this whole time. For a thousand years, I've loved you. Humanity is counting on you, Usurper.

I sat on the roof of the high-rise building, with my legs dangling as I looked down upon this city at night with bright lights. I held the amulet in my hands and stared at it, "Come on, Arthur. You've been fighting endlessly for a thousand years. I know you won't lose."

Memories of our time together flashed through my mind. His bright smile and cheerful voice rung inside of my head. I could tell his soul was unbreakable from the moment I met him. His soul would never lose. His soul is the strongest. Why are you taking so long?

Tears started flowing down my face and onto the amulet. "WHY, ARTHUR?! WHY WON'T YOU COME OUT?! YOU'VE KEPT ME WAITING FOR A THOUSAND YEARS, YOU JERK!"

"I just... want to see you again... everyone is counting on you... I'm counting on you... please..."

The purple amulet started glowing faintly. I looked at it closely and my jaw dropped. "Arthur? Are you there?"

The amulet started glowing brighter and brighter. "Arthur! It's time for you to be reborn. It's time for us to slay the gods."

The amulet started cracking, piece by piece until it shattered into pieces, falling through the air and onto the streets of Japan. Then I felt the sudden presence of a powerful soul emerge. The world shook, as the ground trembled and the air whispered. He's here.

Arthur is reborn.
