14 Here!... Wait what?

My eyes open and I see a blinding sky. To my left Klotic was on morning guard as Jastria was making food.

"Have you finally awakened?" Jastria says. "Have a meal after your morning bathe."

"I went out and found chicken eggs, go wash up, Al." Klotic smiles.

"Alright, alright, I'll wash up." I stretch.

I begin to go towards the river to wash up. I felt groggy and tired, though after the bath I felt refreshed. I get dressed and go to Jastria who gives me my food. My nose picks up a heavenly scent and I slightly drool, then I look at Jastria.

"Did you cook this morning, Jastria?" I ask.

"Indeed, I did, Al." Jastria giggles. "Go on, eat up."

I sigh in relief as I slowly eat my food, savoring it. Jastria's cooking is like the creations of gods, at least that's how I feel about it. I'm not saying Klotic's bad or I'm bad with food (which I am actually bad at cooking), or anything like that. I then get lost in thought and finish eating quickly.

"I feel an unknown presence." Jastria stands. "Klotic."

Klotic instantly stands a firm guard of the area. Jastria points to the areas the presence is in and Klotic vanishes. I look around and see small strikes of lightning, then small dark looking smoke starts to close in. I quickly gather everything up, putting things back into bags and give some to Jastria. I felt something much too familiar here, it wasn't a food familiar- I mean good familiar.

"Al, where are you placing my meal?!" Jastria whispers.

"In the food containers, calm down." I say.

Jastria sighs as I quickly get everything put together. Then out of nowhere, Klotic appears next to us and falls to the ground. We both rushed to check on him, he had a huge gash on his stomach and started coughing out blood. Jastria instantly grabbed her bag and dug out our healing potions. I look around in attempt to keep guard.

"Jastria, make sure Klotic stays with you to get rest." I say.

"Wait, where are you going?!" Jastria yells.

"I'm going to buy us some time to leave." I say. "Everything's already packed up, just please, be safe."

Jastria hesitates to, but she slightly nods as she applies medications to Klotic's wounds. I hear Klotic grunting loudly as I walk away. I didn't think it'd come to me trying to be close to his level, even though that's what I did. I tried making my allusion spell work.

"May what I know be seen and what I have seen to be known." I mumble constantly.

This allows me to try over and over again as my attempts do fail. Then I start to think about the assassin who killed me in my bedroom. The one who took my life and most likely planned on taking Talia's as well. I inhaled and strongly said the incantation.

"May what I know be seen and what I have seen to be known!" I yell.

Instantly I start to see all my closest people I've had in both lives appear in a circle around me. Greffosh, Flinda, Jalia, Klotic, Jastria, and my dad. I'm in shock once I see him and especially him. My father was like a hero to me, he was the one thing I wanted to be when I grew up. Strong, intelligent, responsible, but I couldn't get to his level. I had to learn that most people don't always stay with you long enough that you can learn from them. The only person in my life that began to bring my sanity made it vanish, but now I'm fine. I'm ready to do what I need to.

"I'm ready to do this." I smile.

I see a dark figure coming towards me with a long weapon. 'Might be a longsword, it looks like one…'

"Hey!" I yell.

I try to talk to them, but they're still coming at me. Instead of just standing like an idiot, I ran and took out my sword. I started to make weapons of my own, fit for myself only. Since I'm still in training with my magic, combat is a nice and temporary option. Though, dealing with one is still a little tricky for me.

"Talk to me you bastard!" I yell. "You're the one who's been following us this whole time, am I wrong?!"

Our swords clash constantly as sparks fly over our heads. The black clouds slowly start to fade as I make different allusions of winged animals I saw in the forest. I use my five senses skill to check if Jastria and Klotic are still nearby. 'They're far enough, that's a relief…' I thought to myself as I started to run in circles around the dark figure.

"Moon and sun." I mumble. "Dark and light."

Purple and yellow orbs begin to form behind me, and I increase my speed. The dark figure is now standing in the middle of this, possibly waiting for the perfect time to strike. 'You don't know what's coming for you now.' I slightly grin and I jump and hover over the center of the spinning orbs.

"Create and destroy." I yell. "Reign hell from the heavens, I call upon God and Satan!"

The colors red and gold start to form a clear wall rising from the ground and falling from the sky. The force was so powerful that the trees were knocked down in the area and the grass began to be dirt.

"Stop following us, and I might spare both our lives!" I yell.

The dark figure tries to go outside the area of deadly spinning orbs and burning walls. It seemed like it was attempting and failed as it constantly got thrown back to the center of chaos. I let myself slowly drop down in the area and stand near the figure. I examine it carefully until seeing it dash right for me. I ran around and brought out my daggers but before I knew it, I was pinned down to the ground.

The orbs spinning quicker and quicker, the walls start taking the dirt off the ground into the sky. I struggle to breathe as my neck is in a lock, though I look up and show a little smirk. My body becomes limp and stop breathing. Once done, the figure let's go of me to try and get out the chaos spell which is still continuous. This spell only keeps going while the caster is alive. I was passed out for a few seconds, and I regained my consciousness.

"Gah!" I whimper.

I touch my neck and hold in my breath. The figure seemed to have left a painful mark on my neck. I wasn't sure what it was, though I stood up and did my allusion spell. I attempted to make them clones of myself, but the figure noticed as I saw it dash to me and all went black. The last thing I saw was a dark figure hovering over my face.

"Al Krelin, The Immortal Moon Elf, has been slayed." Flotic says. "Do you wish to 'try again' Zachary Mockmery?"
