PARABOLICAL GRAFFITI

It's all gone.. everything.. damaged. Dead. The whole town of Smallville, all gone.. and I could have stopped it if I was there. Both my parents were killed, along with the rest of Smallville, by the nuclear explosion. Could have stopped Van from killing Lex. His morally challenged clone wouldn't be causing trouble. There wouldn't be a team of meteor freaks running around together, causing havoc, and I would not be their best friend. I should have stopped them before

There's no way to fix what was done. Too much. Too much chaos, so many know what I am. And what I did, what I do to everyone I meet, and to everywhere I go. I mean this, the devastation, it's... nearly unimaginable. If I'd just kept the ring off. If I had only destroyed it. I guess what I want to say is.. that I... I'm sorry. I shouldn't have hurt Bart for disagreeing with me. I nearly killed him, if that Damien hadn't showed up. I shouldn't have spoken that way about Terry's girlfriend. It's disrespectful, and women should be treated right, they aren't objects.

I took so much here that isn't mine, so much money and possessions. Break a lot of stuff. It can be fixed... but my world is another matter. The worst part is, it's my fault it took place, I know I could have prevented it all. But I didn't. Not with that ring on me. I don't expect to be forgiven.. not sure I deserve it. I'm just taking responsibility for everything. It's what my father would want if he were here and if I didn't let him die.

Hey you.

I...I can't believe I would cause so much pain, hurt so many people. I went on patrol and people are scared of me. Wouldn't let me help them at all. Called me a murderer. I'd never do that. No version of me should. I'm sorry.. I don't know what to say.

Now wasn't that fun for all the family.

Should I ask what you've all learned?

So. I'm back. Everything seems back to normal, or getting that way.

Who's up for a nice round of Senior Partner kicking?

Back as well. I'm sorry for what the other me did.

I guess I need to own up to some things. Yes, I'm a Cylon. But in my world, I'm part of the human Fleet, and one of the resistance fighters against the Cylons. It's complicated.

You didn't tell me that you were the one to get rid of him.

Sure ain't hard to hack these is it? Now, you tell me cause I don't wanna go just on my thoughts here. Isn't this girl just the sweetest? Pretty little face. Pouty lips and such long hair. Couldn't imagine my gang's surprise when we managed to capture this bitch the other night. Been giving us problems all over town. Month back, she killed my sweetheart, Ginny. Imagine that? Murderous bitch, offing my darling just like that? We're not a fan of this Slayer and don't know much reason why not to feed on her and send you her corpse when we're done. Less we turn her. Always fun - no one ever does that. So, she got friends in this crapass town? What about this boyfriend, Will? Gonna hide away or man up?

Not sure what we want in exchange yet. What you got to offer? But my, my, is she a cryer. I thought she was supposed to be tough. Been whining since we got her. And for such a photogenic lil thing, she sure don't like her picture taken. She don't like chains either, huh? Been thinking of taking a go at her, since my romantic life been done ruined after Ginny died.

Well! You let us know if you want more proof we got your Slayer. She don't need all those fingers. Sorry bout those blood smudges. Things get messy over here.
