Blue

Once upon a time, at 9:00am on the 17th day of the 5th month in the year 2003, a boy of 14 years wrote his first online journal entry. His entries in the beginning were short and simple, and sometimes they even consisted of nothing more than personality quizzes. It was a different time back then. This live journal survived through his last few weeks of elementary school and then his four years of high school. In many instances, it was used as a tool for procrastination, while other times it was a dumping ground for overflowing thoughts. There was never a consistent schedule for the updates, but that was alright at the time. The first year of university also made it onto this journal at some capacity, though there were missing months.

It went through all the good times and all the dark times until finally he decided that it was time to move on into a different world. And so, in the month prior to year two of university, a blog was born. The transfer wasn't complete though as both journal and blog continued to coexist. A few months later, the blog was seemingly abandoned permanently.

Then, year three began and the journal was kept alive for a while. Something happened during this year, and the boy who started writing seven years ago decided that he didn't need the journal anymore. Only three entries surfaced in 2010; two in January and the final one on April 18th at 12:15am. In the months after, life became a bit more involved and interesting for him. He knew he had to start recording the details again, but the last flame had burned out for animeblaze. He thought perhaps he could go back to the unknown crossroads; however, doing so only made it more clear that this wasn't the right move either. One incomplete final entry made it onto the blog.

The story continues on in the Azure Legends...
