In part 2 of Man made Low has successfully saved his people and the new light of his mind, he now walks with a scar on his chest carrying more than one heart. The world around him has become altered since merging with a demigod, Lilith who use to be the underground lord now has a new way of looking at life. It was as if she was looking through the eyes of her lover, they both have changed each other so deeply. They were better thinkers, but being better people comes with their actions in the world. With this new power Low could abuse it like his forefathers treated Lilith, but he remains in a level of maturity that hate is a concept that does not exist in him. Pain was a feeling he has grown numb to such as feelings and emotion, the only pleasure that pleases him was someone who he could share with. Freeing his mind from boredom and or doubts of if he belongs in this world. When Low and Lilith go back to the neighborhood we find that man has already taken advantage of his spoils of war. Low gave the four gangs the keys to Lilith's treasures through the pages he ripped out of the little black book, giving away the secrets inside. One gang the "Moose Heads"didn't make it, they all died from king mightiest’s gold which should have never been found. Lilith informs Low these aren't treasures these are the sins of man she had been trying to keep away. Another gang "Kush Kapital" the one Low is from has a different cursed treasure, by looking at it you become compelled to have it all. They also robbed her military arsenal taking very magical high grade weapons. They are currently the most powerful, they're power becomes stronger than their greed for more. "Demonville" became their own worst nightmare, they became the monster that lived inside each of them. The treasure they sought was non-existent; instead, it was a room of mirrors, there was nothing in the notes that talked about mirrors. When they looked inside it wasn't a reflection, but a demon fitting their personal sin. They now walk the earth not being able to hide the monster inside a human shell, everyone will see them for their flaws. The last gang was teleported forward in time making them non existent in this timeline. Low and Lilith try to fix the things that destroy this world, once again demons walk the earth. The earth is now a reflection of Lilith's mind, she doesn't know it but she still hasn't let go. She may have let Low in but she still sees men for the evil people they are. Believing the “want” to control everything is human nature, to convince them to think about their effect on the world is like asking them to change they're own lives. Lilith wants to kill them all, but Low asks if they should try something less sinister, they would end up destroying the whole world if they did this. He confronts a demon resembling the Minatour.
LOW
I, I can help you.
MINOTAUR
I don't need help? I don't want help.
The creature screams and punches Low knocking his head off of his shoulders, then Lilith gasps as she watches Low grow another immediately.
LOW
Don't you see how you're suffering, if you were to let go you wouldn't be at war with yourself.
MINOTAUR
I can't. I have nothing to let go of, life for people like me is over. Where does my life go from here?
This minotaur has a history of being a drug fiend.
LOW
If I help you be more whole, will you let me help you?
The minotaur knocks off Low's head and it immediately grows back, both of the heads grow bodies then they walk with their own individuality. They are each absorbed by the main Low.
MINOTAUR
...Where are we going?
The light shines through the minotaur.
LOW
Enlightenment.
The minotaur turns into a normal human, shedding its shell. Becoming not a better person, but a person capable of better things. That way that person will always be at peace with itselves. Low and Lilith realized that they had a power to change things for the better, to improve the world as they worked to improve themselves. They spend decades together without realizing they couldn't grow old.
LOW
We have experienced everything worth experiencing, what is next for us? We've ended the world's suffering from within. Maybe we can start a new life of our own?
LILITH
What if I made us human?
LOW
How?
LILITH
if I take back my heart it would make us humans, so you can grow old. We will see if you have used my heart well.
LOW
Never used it, I connected with it.
LILITH
Are you ready?
Lilith forces her hand through Low's chest without warning and takes back her heart, Low is not nonchalant while there is an open wound on his chest. Lilith heals the skin flaps hanging from the ripped skin, it is sewn back together when she makes contact. Lilith's mouth smiles then she opens her mouth swallowing the heart whole, then a pounding happens between the two of them. Lilith closes her eyes and listens to the pounding, tears fall at her cheek as she looks at Low one more time.
LILITH
I knew you loved me.
Lilith and Low shared a long and memorable moment that they carried with them into the afterlife where they explored the cosmos.

BLACK SHAKSPEAR
My strategy follows a series of formulas that make up a human being and the life that they lived. The characters are basically what makes up the setting, they give purpose to a setting. Even though some settings can speak for themself, like Trump towers. The characters are a series of people who interact with the main character, how I would write it as if each person was they’re own individual. As if they were each living their own lives, and where do these lives come from? Well from you, silly. The best way to write a character is to use yourself or someone you know, most stories are redundant and follow something that has already happened. When writing the story you are basically telling what this person would do in the situation, this is an idea that you will be expanding on for the whole movie. Understand you can have as many ideas, thoughts, and concepts as long as it helps progress to the ending you intended. These all go into the main characters story, where is he from? Is he white or Asian? Is it a he? What are his special skills? Or is there nothing special about him? What about his background, if our main character was from the U. S. then the character will grow up living a certain lifestyle based on racial and wealth status. Give this person identity, make a connection with these characters. As you path the road for this character's life you should feel as if you were being put through the same trials, then figure out resolutions. These resolutions are for the main conflict, what are the issues you are going to put your creation through. Some creators use their powers as gods of this world and give the protagonist more than he can beare, and in the end the hero stands alone in an unwinnable fight. He falls to euphoric music as the camera zooms out on his last moments, while other gods are more merciful and end with a cheerful setting. Where everyone is magically brought back to life, which is lazy writing. Please avoid this at all cost if you find yourself at a brick walk, get some air and think deep about a clever and never seen before “ending”. The conflict has to be a strong enough reason for someone who would want to listen or appeal to a certain group of people. Issues like being alive during an apocalypse or zombieworld in Asia, To keep track of all ideas write them down like bullet points. Are we following the role of a survivor, an agent or as a zombie. As the creator you give this person in life and unlike the character you know what he's going to do with it. The character's life like yours is on a timeline, you have 60 to 99 pages minimum based off of the assignment to tell a well understood story. What makes a story that is so good isn’t the flashy thing you put in front of people, like in 6 Underground with Ryan Renolds. It lacked dialog and character development; however, it did have amazing action scenes. How high 2 is another example, it’s hard to take the movie seriously when it comes to it’s weak dialog and sense of humor. As a black person I want to speak to the black artist who read this, the black ignorant narrative has grown stale it honestly looks more like “COON” sh@$. I love Raven-Symone, her show “That So Raven” had a great story line following the life of a teenage girl with a loving black family. When I first saw her sequel “Raven’s House” it was a book of black cliches, the story of a single black mother raising two kids isn’t the lifestyle most people want to live. The kids in the story suffer from it too since they’re father doesn't come around, I want to inspire “you” since you have read this far, avoid repeating what has already been made and avoid the obvious. Surprise the viewer, this is not meant to be an insult but to give you the advantage. If I were to rewrite the story “Raven’s House” Raven would be a married mother of two, she’s a successful fashion designer and her kids are just as talented as they’re father who is an inventor. Because Raven had a strong supportive father and mother she would have had more than this sad reality of “Raven’s House”.

Footsteps
The snow was falling on the tin roof. I heard footsteps outside. Pitter patter. Pitter patter. There was something out there, but I wasn't sure what it was. I peeped through the window. Nothing. Relieved but cautious, I made sure all of the doors were locked. Most of them had been left open out of carelessness when my mother rushed out of the house in the morning. She had to work and she was very busy. I didn't blame her, especially because it had been sunny at the time. Now it was a different story. I tried to call her, but the power went out immediately as I was dialing her number, and I could only get reception in a certain area on top of a hill: a precarious place to be in the middle of a snowstorm.
