    [FONT=&quot]The one called Bob[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Ordinary,[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Bob is anything but.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]On a warm day in the summer,[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]He was found as an infant[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]At the peak of the tallest mountain in the entire[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]World, by a monk named Ira that was making a trek[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Up to the top to pray. The monk cared for him and[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Moticed that the child was growing at a surprising rate. In the[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Time normal men saw one year, Bob saw three. For every three strong men,[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Bob was one. For every 3 fast runners, Bob was one.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]The entire country of Gilgamesh had[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Been under siege by God’s army of angels[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]For the past 6 years, Ira believed that God[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Was angry with the sins of mankind and was making[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]An example by waging war on the world[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]And noticed uniqueness of this child. Ira did[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Not understand it but every[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Time he looked into Bob’s eyes, he was invigorated[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]With a rush of determination he had never known. Soon Ira,[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Regarded as one of the greatest masters[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Of martial arts in the[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Land, began training Bob for the[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]War he was destined to fight. Never had[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]A man advanced as fast as Bob, he had surpassed[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Ira’s skill by his fifth year on earth. On a cold morning[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]In winter, Bob awoke with a jump, and was overcome with[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]The sense that someone that was not welcome was near. He[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Stepped outside his hut on the mountainside and[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Checked on Ira who was sound asleep. He[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Knew not what it was, but a feeling[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Told him he needed to go to[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]The peak of the mountain, so he[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Ran as fast as he could through the[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Thick, freshly fallen snow that no man[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Could pass at this time in the year. Once[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]As the summit, He was greeted by a sight[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]That was a day he knew would come, God’s army[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Appeared to be approaching, but Bob did not sense[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Divinity in the mass. He descended the mountain back to[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Ira and his camp to find Ira still sleeping. Bob decided not to bother[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Ira with the work he knew he had to do. Ira had done enough.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Bob knew what he was to do. He bolted down the[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Mountain running miles and miles[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Nonstop until the army he[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Saw approaching was near. Suddenly he[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Was overcome with a sense of hatred that was not[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]His own. Bob had been raised to fight without weapons[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]As he was taught that a weapon that is not part of him is a coward’s[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Tool. His enemies had the look of angels, but when Bob looked into their[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Eyes, he sensed a cold hatred. One by one Bob slew many foes in swift movements[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]That the army of angels couldn’t handle. After the twelfth hour of battle, Bob[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Had made his way to the back of the army leaving thousands of[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Lifeless bodies behind him. With a small group of[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Enemies left he was able to see the entity[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Leading the army. It was not[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]God, but the devil and his army of tricksters.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]This was a in a way, a surprise[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]To Bob but somehow[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]He knew that God would[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Not do such a thing to the people[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]He created. With one swift move he[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Pounded his fist into the ground and broke[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]The earth beneath him causing his foes to fall[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]To their death in what seemed to be an endless pit.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]He leaped over the pit to make bring an end to the devil’s[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Assault on Earth but was met with fierce resistance from him,[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]They exchanged blows, Bob was much faster than the devil, but[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]The devil had the powers of darkness on his side. Bob was taking[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]One beating with one powerful blow after another. Finally, the[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Devil landed a strong whip of his tail across Bob’s head[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]And made him fly through the air until he was stopped[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]By a blow to the head on the side of a large boulder.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Bob slipped into unconsciousness, but then, he[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Had a dream that was more real than any[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Dream he had had before. Everything[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Was blinding white and slowly a[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Figure stepped out of the light[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Slowly. Bob knew not what it[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Was, but he sensed it was something[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Great. The figure laid his hand upon Bob’s[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Forehead and Bob was overcome with a newfound[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Sense of strength. Slowly his vision faded back to black[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]And then as if his dream had only lasted a split second he awoke[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]With a bolt and made a rush to the devil who was standing tall[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Laughing at the Bob with his maniacal laugh. The devil[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Noticed Bob had arisen and looked him in the eye.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]He was paralyzed with fear from the power[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Than he could feel was coming from Bob.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Bob made one swift rush and an[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Uppercut that could not even[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Be seen by the devil, and before[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]He knew it the devil was sent flying[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Into the sky at a ridiculous speed. Before[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]The devil was out of sight a cloud appeared[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]From nowhere as the devil entered into it. Bob[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Could only guess that it was God taking care of[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]What was left of the Devil. Bob collapsed in the spot[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Where he had lain the final blow upon the devil and died[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]A peaceful death[/FONT]
