PART 1 WHO AM I?

PART 1 WHO AM I?

Aug 03, 2025


How did it start? How did I get here? My head feels heavy... I can't remember anything except for that faceless girl...

My... head... dizzy...

Guy 1: "Look, he passed out again."
Guy 2: "What a weak candidate to be one of the cards."
Guy 1: "Yeah, you said it."

WHAT A PATHETIC LIFE THIS WAS...

WHAT DID I DO WRONG?

UNFAIR! UNFAIR! UNFAIR! UNFAIR! UNFAIR! UNFAIR! UNFAIR! UNFAIR! UNFAIR!

A voice?

Girl: "Gi-... Gio... Wake up... Gio, wake up already! We're going to be late..."

Gio? Is that my name? And who is that faceless girl, anyway?

Guy 1: "Hey, wake that boy up. We're almost at the island."
Guy 2: "Wakey-wakey, sleeping princess!" (He poured water on Gio.)

WAAKK... *COUGH *COUGH *COUGH... (GASPING FOR AIR) HEY!!!!

Guy 2: What?! Is there a problem sleeping princess? HAHAHAHAHAHA

Captain: Cut it out already, we're here.... Bring all the captured candidates in the shore!!
Ships Crew: AYEE!!
Captain: How many did we captured this time?
Guy in the hoody: We captured a decent amount, captain
Captain: Alright! Now we talkin! HAHAHA

There are lot of kids?! What is this? An island? These kids, they're clearly traumatized... 
Why are there so many heavily armed guys here? 

!!!

Another ship?!! Don't tell me... There are more kids?!?
Hmm? Those guys...

(Talking distantly)
Guy 1: Wow, they really prepared a lot of candidates this time, huh?
Guy 2: You said it, I bet the 'BOSS'  spent a lot of money for this. HAHAHA

'BOSS'?!? What're they talking about? 

(Kids crying in the distance)

(Two captains talking in the distance)
Captain 1: HAHAHA I told you I'll capture a decent amout this time (mocking the other captain)
Captain 2: Yeah right... I bet you only snag those who is starving and in the streets... HAHAHAHA
Captain 1: hahaha (pissed)

This is my chance!! I need to run... But where? This is an island... Theres no way to go.
Theres no time for planning a scape route... Im just gonna run in that thick forest!! Im pretty sure I'll loose them there...
Im just gonna wait for a perfect timing...

Ill look for an opening...

Guy 1: I said no crying!!
Guy 2: *Kicked one of the kids
Guy 3: Hey do you have a lighter? I forgot mine in the ship.
Guy 2: I don't smoke you idiot! Go find your lighter in the ship.
Guy 3: Alright, but whose gonna watch my spot?
Guy 2: Don't worry about that... Ill watch it.
Guy 3: *Runs towards the ship.

THIS IS MY CHANCE!!

Gio runs in the direction of the forest... Fast... He didn't look back... No turning back!

I just need to run through the forest and lose them... I need to get out of here fast and report this!!

Guy 1: Heyy!! That kid is escaping!! Stop him!!
Guy 5: *Fires his gun aiming for Gio
Captain 1: Don't shoot you crackhead!! He's still a candidate! *nods in the hoody guy.

I'm almost there!! I just need to keep running!

HUH!? WHATS THAT?! ANIMAL? ITS APPROACHING FAST!!
It's the hooded guy from earlier!!

ARGHHHH!! 

The hooded guy then captured Gio...  

This guy is huge and fast!! LET GO OFF ME!!

Hooded guy: *Scoffs* Hey kid, what do you think your doing? You wanna escape? HAHAHAHA WHAT A JOKE YOU ARE!!

He then tossed Gio around like a toy... Right and left... Until Gio lost his consciousness.

The salt spray stings Giovanni's eyes as he opens them, not to the blissful ignorance of a shipwreck survivor, but to the stark, brutal reality of his captivity. He wasn't lost at sea; he was brought here—deliberately, cruelly delivered to this hellish island under the control of Jaguar and "The Black Umbrella." The island is a training ground, a place where broken men are transformed into weapons of unparalleled lethality. Forced to embrace the darkness within, Gio undergoes a harrowing transformation, honing his skills in brutal combat. Yet, as he fights to survive, fragments of his past claw their way into his consciousness, forcing him to confront a truth that is both terrifying and strangely compelling. His struggle is not just for survival; it's a desperate battle against the monstrous identity that Jaguar is forcing upon him, a fight against his own potential for destruction. The chilling truth of how he arrived here fuels his desperate desire to escape.
