I felt like I was falling, with no care what so ever, it went on and on like that, until I felt my feat touch on something and a bright light shot out before I opened my eyes. [This place again?] I thought to my self, it was a large pillar of some sort with a floor that felt like stained glass, it had a large picture of different tarot cards, all the way up to number 21, but they were all face down.

I heard a voice resound around me and seemingly inside of me. There is much in the world around you, and still little time as with all... Take your time, and choose your fate. I looked around as it spoke and saw three pedestals rise, a sword, a shield and a wand...

I grabbed the shield The power of a guardian, kindness to aid friends, a shield to repel all... I accepted it and then went towards the wand. The power of the mystic, Inner streangth, a power of wonder and ruin... I rejected that power and then soon saw a path way open and went through it, for some reason, a sword now appeared on my back.

I looked around, I now stood on a pillar with the Tarot cards of the Fool (0), The magician (1), The high priestess (2), The empress (3), The emperor (4), The hierophant (5), ANd then the Lovers (6)... The sword glowed faintly before I took hold of it and noticed that a odd thing with yellow glowing eyes now stood in front of me, it was completely black and had two small antena. Defend your self. Was all I heard before doing just that.

After getting rid of one of them with two good swings of the sword three appeared. [What the hell?] I wondered before taking a big swing and knocking them away before they shattered into clumps of what looked like shadows. I turned around as I felt something slash into my back, it was another one of those things, I slamed the sword's tip down on it before it scattered like the others before a new door opened.

After running into this one, I looked around, even more of the tarot cards. The chariot (7), Justice (8), The hermit (9), Wheel of fortune (10), Stength (11), And then the Hanged man (12)... [What is with these floors, why do they have the different tarot cards on them?] I wondered to my self.

A door appeared but it looked faded I then looked up and noticed a light fly by before it turned into a large crate. Some times, you need to apply what you know to the world around you... I looked and noticed that there as a small spot light shining by the door now and walked over to the crate, taking a good hold on it, I pulled it over to the from of the door before it faded and I fell flat onto my ass, the door frame njow becoming tangible before a barrel appeared and I hit it straight into the door, the actual door now becoming tangible along with the handles.

A bright light shined out when I opened it, I covered my eyes before walking through and found my self on top of the roof of a skyscraper. I looked around this time and noticed three of my closest friends, Draconis who had long black hair decending to his upper back, with red piercing eyes and pale skin, he always wore a long red cloak over his old style hunter outfit, it had light brown leather padding over a grey shirt and deep blue leggins, his arms down to his wrists laid bare before leather gloves similar to the padding he wore covered his hands down on his feet were a pair of plain leather boots his parents had given him a year ago and as far as 12 year olds go, he was a very calm going person despite his appearance, he stood near the railing that kept us all from falling.

Over near a large generator stood a boy with rectangular glasses in black lenses, he had blond hair in a pony tail that seemed to lack any sign of shining and he had very pale skin along with a pair of some what dark blue eyes, he was like a ghost, he wore a red T-shirt and had on greyish blue jeans, his shoes were a white and black color, his name was Terric a friend who was my same age 10 years old.

Then far off sitting next to a ladder was my friend Miko, she had long brownish black hair like mine that went about to her upper back, she always let it hang freely, she had black eyes and fair skin that was a little more evenly toned compared to the other two, she had a very decent figure that wasn't all too close to the hour glass one but was still good from how I saw things, she wore a long sleeved white shirt and a long red skirt along with it, which was fitting for her name. She was just a little older than me, 11 years old.

After being asked certain questions by them and respond I heard that voice again. You want to be strong, you want to expand your horizons, and you fear being indecisive... Your journy begins at dusk, while the path ahead seems long and difficult, the light shall soon shine upon you.

At that moment, I opened my eyes and noticed that I was on one large platform, it had only one tarot card on it... Death. The closer you get to the light... The larger your shadow becomes... I turned around and saw my shadow rise up and take a shape of its own, it now looked like some sort of giant creature, it was humanoid but had piercing yellow eyes, all black skin, and a giant heart shapped hole in its chest. But do not fear... And do not forget...

I shivered and shook as I stared up at the large thing before I reached over my shoulder and grasped the blade, holding it with my right hand only as I held it up next to me, like I saw I had taught my self to after this man I met named Dart Feld.

[Okay, let's go.] I thought to my self as I ran forward and slashed at its feet, the sword went right through but didn't seem to do anything, I watching as a odd light gathered on its left hand and I jumped back only to see it make a odd vortex on the ground before a bunch of those small thigns from earlier started to pool out, I swung at them in a large arc and managed to get rid of them, then noticed, when I had, the sword actually left a mark on that giant things hand.

Taking that as my cue I took two more strikes at its hand ending with one large swing causing it to pull its hand out of the vortex and making it fade before light gathered inside of the heart shape on its chest, a large sphere shot out and it felt like I was burning when it made contact, I brought the sword up to get ready to charge in and then noticed that when the sword struck the sphere, it went in another direction. [That's it!] I thought as I swung in a long horizontal line when it shot out four of those spheres making it recoil its head landing next to me as I started to stab at it again and again.

After a minute or two of this, it got up and let out a loud roar, the sword I was holding faded and I tripped, one of its hands laying over me as I struggled, its large mouth opening up I then heard the voice, but it sounded distorded and monsterous. But do not fear... I screamed as it started to close its mouth around me, and silence resounded before that voice was in my head, sounding like a womans.

You are the one, who shall lead the path...
