Many many years ago back when neopia was new, I was a simple zafara with a home and a owner who cared for me. Life was good. I even met a lady zafara who was as kind as she was beautiful. Ah, she made life worth living. ok, truthfully I dont remember these things, only what my owner has told me and from what I see in dreams....and nightmares.

A cool spring day in a field of lilacs and daffodils...pretty cherry blossom trees sway happily in the warm breeze. I am catching butterflies when I hear her familiar laughter. I can see her coming towards me from the distance but I cannot see her face. I try to call her by name, but nothing comes out....then, Im sinking.... sinking into freezing water till my world becomes engulfed in complete darkness. Quiet. Cold. Alone. I wake up shivering. I wasn't supposed to remember any of this...something happened that day but never did learn the truth behind it all...its frustrating. The clouded memories from my old life haunt me. She haunts me. I searched for the lady Zafara from my dreams you know. Searched and searched till the point of madness. That is until I found a familiar old locket that once barred two names on the outside.But it was rusted and weather beaten; left abandoned for who knows how long. It was left in a field. One choked with weeds and dead cherry trees.

It was then I realized something.
the zafara she loved was long gone.... I am

I gave up searching after that....

Fair Lady.
Perhaps these nightmares will end when I remember you.

When I remember myself.




Misc info About TankerII

Used to be a fighter and one of the strongest neopets back in his younger days. However he had to retire after several defeats and finally losing a wing in the last war. The foes have gotten tougher, but he did not and his owner did not want to risk losing him again. Haunted by dreams and broken memories, its rare that he gets enough sleep at night. As a result he has dark shadows under his eyes and a very sour disposition. Best not to get on his bad side, Tanker has a short fuse and will not hesitate using his arm-like scarf to fling irritating persons/neopets into trees or off cliffs. He lives alone somewhere atop terror mountain, but only close family knows exactly where. His oddly colored scarf has strange powers that allows Tanker to use it like a second pair of arms. Some say it was a gift from the snow faerie, others suspect he stole it from the haunted fairgrounds, but no one dares to ask unless they want a flying lesson down the mountain side.
