The city, it had changed, Josie remembered the moment he left it, his home, he had met few, they were probably dead by now.
The hot summer wind whirled around his trench coat, going right through the holes and filling him with an uncomfortable warmth.
Josie knew he had to leave before, and now he remembered, he remembered everything, and this is where it all began, here is where his own subconscious had led him to, home. Closing his eyes Josie remembered, everything, from the beginning to the present.
-Josie age 18, the city, before it was wrapped in war-
Josie was walking down the board walk, having just turned 18,turning around Josie saw a young man walking towards him, none other than his best friend Sam
Turning completely towards him Josie smiled. "Whats the matter old friend?"
The other youngester replied completely eagerly
"Hey josie I have an idea but you have to promise you have to see it through the end with me."
Josie nodded as always his friend had a great idea this allowed his friend to continue.
"You always said you wanted to make a band, well I have an Idea, remember the old church next to the graveyard next to my house? Well no ones used it in years, how about we turn it into a night club. and you perform, there?"
Josie laughed at the idea, it was a crazy idea after all.
-Josie page 1, the city, 1 day before His life ended-
Josie was crying he had to say goodbye to his friends, It seems he had been drafted to the military. Only weeks before had he promised Sam he would make a nightclub with him and now.... now it was all over. He turned to Sam, but Sam knew, Sam just hugged his life long friend and told him. "Promise when you come back to play at the club" Josie nodded sadly he was leaving his blood brother, the true one friend he had in his whole existence.
Next to him was crystal, the one girl who had always supported him,Josie couldn't bear it "I'm sorry crystal, this isn't goodbye, ill be back I promise." Josie ran off into the distance and then turned to the place he was to report to.
-Diary 1 page 1-
"They told me I could keep a diary, but ever 4 months a new one would start, they told me to call them mother and father.
So far all they do is make me train, teach me things, tell me how to be a soldier, I'm terribly homesick I miss Sam, and I miss...Crystal."
-Diary 2 page 1-
"I'm starting to forget things, all that is in my head is, its war, I can remember their faces, but what are their names, who are these two, I feel as though their important... s-Sam? Crystal?"
-Diary 2 Final page-
"I've forgotten, I realize what happened, they've slowly erased it, everything, I cant remember, this is the last of it, the monsters, what do they want, all they do is pour chemicals into me, make me work, so tired....."
Josie opened his eyes, tears welling slightly, He had forgotten, he had forgotten but now he remembered, He had gone back, and searched, he felt something was missing from his life, 3 years he had been underground, those 3 years in which they had removed his memories and made him into a soldier, but now... since he found the diaries, he remembered. Josie walked towards the graveyard and opened his violin case. Walking into the church Josie played. "The Turkish march, remembered Sam old friend, told you I would return, I always keep my promises, I'm sorry crystal i never told you... I never said a proper goodbye." The wind carried the sound throughout the city, and to the heavens, Josie let a single tear drop, Hoping they would hear him, whether dead or alive.
