Is my name, but it hasn't always been, but it was changed for a reason. It means
B R A V E W A R R I O R
Why was I named for being a Brave warrior? Well the truth is, I earnt my name, but I prefer not to talk about it.
This is MY story of how I got my scars and lost my Jewel.
I wasn't always powerless, and blind in one eye. When I was born, I was one of two. The eldest, the best, that was what my mother thought. I got the name, Vahva and boy, was I proud of it. I was handsome, young and strong. But then there was my brother. He was named, heikko. Heikko, means 'weak' in Finnish, but the thing that made it worse, was my name, meant 'strong' in Finnish. So I guess, this is actually more his story, than mine. He was always left in the shadows. My dad would take me out hunting, fighting, battle training, cause he was in the army, and that was my future, my life was set. But he refused to train Heikko, he was far too weak in my father's eyes, too weak to parade in front of his retired comrades, he would invite them over, especially to show me off. Aged 18, we both went to Military college, but Heikko had shown to be clever, he was to be a doctor. But it was there, we discovered his passion. To kill. The teacher's tried their best, to tame and train him, but he didn't listen, but he was happy, he was getting all the attention, stealing MY limelight, and I didn't like it, one bit. One evening, I made the mistake of my life.
I was sitting in bed, the tutors were Outside, trying to show Heikko the safe way to shoot a gun. It was then, I had enough, I stormed out and yelled, to get the entire school's attention, and challenged Heikko, to a battle, to,the death. It started off ok, we selected our weapons, I ended up with a sword, him an axe. But it was heavy, and he struggled, I managed to take the top off one of his wings, so he couldn't fly. But I wanted more, I was Vahva, I, was strong. I ran to him, he lay injured on the ground, I lifted my sword to take that final blow, but he was ready, he unsheathed his claws, and raked them along my eye. I felt everything go black, I knew I had been scarred, but next, was the thing that changed my life, my once beautiful, black jewel, was ripped from my head by that axe.
I lay in recovery for a long, long time. They managed to fix my Jewel, connect it back to my body, but, my power's never returned. As for my eye, it never healed up properly, but got infected, which is how I am blind. My father, seeing my son's power, began to warm to him. His name was changed, to Teho, meaning power in Finnish. My mother, was the only one who felt sympathy, she knew, I would be teased, for being named Vahva, and we chose the name, Dustin, meaning brave warrior, so those who set eyes on me, would know just what I had been through. I never saw Teho after that, I left the military school, not taking a look back, got a job as a doctor, wanting to help the injured. But I never will forget that day, the day kin clash, the day I loose my life, my family, my name..
My wing was slightly less, well sad. I quite simply was climbing a tree in battle training, and cut my wing on a branch
As for my brother, from what I have heard, he few as the captain in the army, he won the record for the most killings in a time serving, though I am not sure what the number was. .
My Jewel once had been. B L A C K
Yes, my Jewel had been a sort of black, meaning destruction and power, but it had been a cloudy, watery black. I had missed the destruction bit out. Where as Teho's Jewel, had always been, pitch black. Destruction and power. But I think loosing it did me a favour, or I would have ended up, like HIM
A word or two from me.... BEEP I LOVE YOU HE IS AMAZINGLY PERFECT! I died when I saw him, and began writing straight away. He is so lovely! I hope you don't mind the several names in the story, I just kept writing, and well, that's what came out, I want him so bad, you have NO IDEA!

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
Do you know me?
