The card appeared in front of knagslot and on it was bodly written:
NAME: DOT KORRETO
RANK: FIST SLEEPER - [ level 2]
FIST LORE: SWERVING -[ level 2]
PUNCH CORE: SOFT - [ level 1]
SUPER STRIKE: [NONE]
A loud and sonic-like voice screamed out of the speakers: " You have leveled up".
Another card appeared in front of knagslot. It had different colours of flowers drawn on it. Suddenly it exploded and : [ YOU HAVE LEVELED UP]✓ appeared on the air.
The goblin spoke now: "Dot korreto will go and train and prepare for tomorrow's fight now. So you'll be seeing him tomorrow".
Two hefty goat-human like beasts came onto the ring and led knagslot out of it. The beasts had a goat's face and a human's body. As they walked down towards a large door, the crowds cheered knagslot on.
"Wave to them you piece of shit!", urged one of the beasts to knagslot.
Knagslot, spooked as hell, compiled and waved very sheepishly at the crowd chanting his name and cheering him.
"And put on a smile!", said the other guard to knagslot.
Knagslot complied also and put on a feeble smile. Just as they were approaching the exit door, he saw a lanky looking man being led up by two horse-like human creatures ( horse head and human body) down to the ring. The man was shivering as he walked past him and knagslot almost pitied him.
The goat beasts and the horse beasts nodded forward as they passed each other. Finally, knagslot was led into the door. It was a narrow place, to knagslot it felt like an alley. There were light bulbs on almost every wall - dim things that flickered like candle lights. The place felt eerie and it really gave knagslot the creeps.
The place was also littered with trash cans which had cascaded on the floor. It smelled really bad and turned knagslot's stomach but to the beasts, it felt like nothing - they were totally indifferent. The ceiling of the place was high and without any light bulbs, it had gothic designs on it and one couldn't really see the colour.
They turned right and down was an iron door, bolted with a really big bolt. The beasts unbolted the door and entered inside, along with knagslot.
A red light shone out of the bulb hung in the middle of the place. It was a room, a shabby looking bed at the end of it, a window beside and a small table with drawers. A small fridge also layed lonely behind a wall at their right. The place smelled stuffy like it hadn't been opened for ages.
"Here's your room", said one of the beasts to knagslot.
Knagslot gazed at the place and let it sink into his head. The beasts turned to the door and was about to open it when knagslot blurted:
"Please, help me get out of here, I want no part of this. Please, I've got life out of here. I even have a girlfriend I'm dating, please -".
The beasts cut him short unisonly: "Quit the blabbing".
"Stop spitting out shit pal", said one of the beasts. "Welcome to A NIGHTMARE FOR CLOWNS. You are now a minion's clown".
Knagslot was panicking real bad. "What!, this is trafficking, you guys are keeping me here without my will. Wait?, where I'm I?".
One of the beasts whispered eerily: "This is the Minion's domain and you are now their clown, and there is nothing you are going to do about it".
Knagslot brain exploded, this was too much for him, what was this?. He had no idea. He was trying to now, but this beasts were only telling him things that felt so cryptic to his brain, he considered them daft.
The beasts opened the door, slowly, as of waiting for knagslot to say something, but were surprised he didn't utter a word. He just stood in the middle of the room, totally confused and speechless and even angry. The first beast went outside and as the second did, it said casually :
"There's some food in the fridge and drinks. And don't worry, the guider is coming to let you in on more info and what to do".
The door was shut with a bang.
Knagslot could hear their loud footsteps as they walked away. He fell on his bed and felt like crying. The bed was not welcoming either because soon a bug bit his hand. He cursed as he stood up and walked to the window, scratching the hand the bug had bitten. The sky was dark and gloomy outside. The place was a street, a mix of medieval and modern.
A man in a white suit held a medieval looking shield and wore a Knight's armor. He walked on with a stagnant face and knagslot felt it too odd. Up ahead was a horse tied to a light pole, just behind the horse was a packed car and a woman clothed in a velvet medieval looking gown was climbing the horse and riding it down, past his window. A man in a white t-shirt was also entering the car and driving it off.
Knagslot squinted his eyes.
'MINION'S DOMAIN' rang in his head as he looked down the window onto the eccentric and totally odd street. Soon, the cry of a bird made him look at the skies. A lady was riding a large raven, the raven swerved to the left and right and clawed repeatedly, its eyes bloodshot and scary. Knagslot put his hand on his head and went to the fridge, opening it just to see only a sandwich and a bottle of soda.
He grimaced. The beasts were freaks, he thought, they had lied that they were food and drinks in the fridge when in reality there was only a sandwich and a bottle of soda.
"Maybe later", he said to himself. " I've lost my appetite".
Just as he was closing the fridge, he heard light little knocks on the door. His heart beat stopped for a moment and then continued.
Who's it?, what do they want?, he thought.
The knocking persisted. He had to, in slow steps walk to the door.
" Who's there?", he asked, his voice shaking.
There was no reply.
"Who's there", he repeated, this time his words coming out more clearly.
A light female voice spoke softly: " It's the guider".
