Chapter 11 Powerful Test Flare
I am so sorry to those who have been reading my fic I have been delayed do to a computer malfunction so now I should be able to hopefully get back into the grove of a chapter a week
"Uh my head" I looked around and saw I was back in the field again "hello?" I heard a grunt behind me and saw the others there, I ran over to get them up "hey yall ok" I shook Flare first biggest mistake of my life, she gave me a quick jab to the jaw "ow fuck" she sat up and rubbed her eyes, while everyone else got up and saw we were in the field again Joker was the first to speak up "huh that's twice I woke up her"
"well not exactly" came a voice in the sky it was the same voice in the cave, I looked up to see who said that "who are you, you never gave us a name" "forgive me I am known as King Sombra" next to us a blob formed into a unicorn which had some badazz armor on "what do you mean by not exactly" he looked at me and put a hoof to his head "we are in your mind young one and this is where you will unlock the power I spoke of"
"Wait so you gave us powers correct" he nodded "then why do we have to unlock them" he smiled at that "good you know to look at multiple things at once, but to answer your question it is because the power was stored in your heads and is dormant all you have to do is pass each of the three tests, you all will do this as a individuals, also with each test you pass you will gain a small portion of power"
"Alright what is the first test" I looked ahead at a portal with each of our names on it 'I swear if one of the tests is to fight yourself then I'm done' soon me and the others walked to our own portals
*POV Change Flare*
I stepped out of the portal and saw I was in a canyon with the sky red and the sun was high in the sky "hello Flare welcome to you first test" I looked at king Sombra "What is my test cause I can take anything you got" He just smiled "the first test is of a physical nature and you might want to start running" I turned around and saw a "fucking lizard" the lizard was about half the size of the dragon but it was moving fast, so I bolted "SOMBRA what am I supposed to do" A small black orb floated next to me "you need to kill the creature that resides here"
I jump in the air and grabs a rock and launches it into the side and soon the canyon started to collapse on itself, I look back and see that the fucking lizard about to take a bite out of me so I jump up on its snout and jump up out of the canyon, I turn and watch the lizard get buried in boulders except for its head, I see a faint light coming from the head and jump down to get a closer look, in between its eyes was a gem, I reach out to grab it and it evaporates "wait where did that gem go"
The black blob returns "congratulations you have unlocked the first part of your power now before you can go you need to kill it" I looked at the blob with a raised eyebrow "what do you mean its dead" He started laughing "oh, no you thought the lizard was your test, no he was the carrier" I looked at him with the intent to kill "what do you mean carrier"
Soon the ground started to rumble and so the creatures mouth opened and a ton of black ooze poured out and started to wrap around the rocks and the rocks started to stand into a golem "WHAT THE FUCK!" the golem was over four times the height of me, while I was staring I didn't see the punch coming at me and put my hands out to block, but I knew that the force would send me flying
I closed my eyes for the punch but all I felt was force go into my hands, I opened my eyes to see the golems fist in my hand but it wasn't going anywhere I felt the golem pushing against my hand but it wasn't that hard, 'wait the gem was that part of my power, strength' I grew an evil grin towards the golem "looks like I'm going to have some fun with you" I threw the golems hand away and jumped into the golems chest with a punch, the force sent the golem back about 30 feet on the ground, I jumped and slammed into the golems head and watch his head shatter into little pieces "ha that wasn't anything you've got to do better than that" soon another portal opened and I walked into it,
I stepped out to see I was in a forest "ok what is with the forests in this place" Sombra appeared in front of me "well done Flare you beat the golem now your next test is one of illusions, in the forest you will find the next piece of the gem but be warned what lives in this forest is something that you'll never see coming" with that he left
I looked around to see the forest was thick as hell but also there was this mist which I could barely see 5 feet in front of me "eh nothing I can't handle in a stupid forest but why don't I just do some cutting" I walked up to a tree and punch it, it easily snapped but as it fell it faded away and a new tree appeared "ok now this bull shit"
I started walking in a random direction for a few minutes "is there even a gem here I've been walking for hours" then a saw a small flash of orange in the distance so I sprinted for it and saw the gem in a tree "sweet" I reached for the gem and as I was about to touch it the gem faded away and I heard laughter And turned to see a dark figure with a clown head cane in his hand "why hello Flare, right now you are thinking who is this freak well you see I'm a figure in your head so there's no need for names"
"Well how about this you tell me where the next piece is and you can go do what you were doing before" I looked at him as he was laying down in midair with the cane still on the ground "hey Waco mind telling me where the next fragment" he put a hand up to his chin "nope" I just sighed and started walking again
I walked till I broke the tree line and ended up back in the same clearing "what the hell" sure enough I saw Waco again just doing as he pleases which was sipping from a little teacup, I walked up to him and said "alright I've had enough of your games tell me where the next piece is so I can get out of this hell hole" he just chuckled "please have a seat" a chair appeared next to me, seeing no better options I sat down in the chair and watch as a teacup spawn onto the table in front of me
"so Flare now that you have calmed down a little let me tell you, the object that you want is actually in plain sight but in order for you to find it you must think" he just sat there for a little while "how about a hint, the riddle will give you your answer and once you tell me where the gem resides then I will give it to you" I could only nod, he grew a smile and clapped his hands together
"wonderful alright here it goes, I walk on four legs when I'm young, I walk on two legs when I'm grown, I walk on three legs when I'm old, what am I, 'what could it be, wait Joker said this before, uhh… what was it' "wait I remember it was a human" He starts clapping his hands "good job Flare you solved the riddle but now guess where the gem is"
'oh no I forgot the gem' I soon saw a small flash which takes my eyes to his cane, 'wait he said it would involve the riddle, the can is the old man's third leg' "it's in your cane" he smiled and twisted the hand on the clown head and a click was heard and it opened to show the gem, he picks up the gem
"well done I didn't think you would get that and I'm proud to allow you to proceed to the final test, oh and before I forget your friends will be there to help with the final challenge" I grab the gem and it turns to sparkles and disappears like before, a portal opens and I start to walk to it "oh and Flare" I turn to face him "don't forget about me I might come back if needed" I nodded and stepped into the portal
For those who want to know I am going through each of the characters tests till the final team test in which I am going to go back to Shadow's view
