As I pried up the board, I saw something scuttle by quickly down a dark, narrow hall. Whatever it was, it ran through the dark hall as if it had nothing to fear.

"There's something down there. Help me get the boards out; quick", I said struggling to pry the floor boards!

Alice scooted me aside, grabbed her hilt, and stabbed the remaining boards, sending them to another dimension. She walked back all subtly acting as though nothing happened. We all climbed down into the hidden hall. We continued to walk down the hall until we were in a room, a very large room at that. It was dimly lit and just as creepy as the house.

Kao started to walk around the room, but when he got to the center of the room he ran into another invisible wall.

"Alice!" Kao yelled in frustration rubbing his forehead.

"What?" Alice remarked. Kao pointed at the invisible wall. Alice felt the wall and then slashed at the wall; nothing happened.

"Bravo. I must say I didn't think you'd make it this far", A voice said from the dark hall. We all looked but saw nothing. Suddenly the room shifted scenes.

"There must be another dimensional blade or something", Alice stated.

"Actually no weapon in fact; I wouldn't waste my life chasing around some invisible sword and then lose it to some kid." The man's voice said. We still couldn't see him.

"Though you must know I am by far stronger than my sister. She wasted her time chasing the wind and when she caught it she couldn't control it; my sister poured her heart and soul into finding that sword", the voice said.

"You want the sword? You can have it!" I yelled trying to locate the man's position. Alice, Kao, and I were looking all around trying to find the man, while Chase stood there and stared at us.

"What are you guys doing?" Chase asked.

"We're looking for the guy; what are you doing?" Alice said.

"You mean the guy standing right there", Chase asked inquisitively?

"What guy? Where?" Kao asked.

"Wait a minute", Chase said with a serious face. It was the second time I'd ever seen him with a serious face on. Suddenly Chase's backpack was snatched off his back and disappeared into a wall.

"Hey!" Chase yelled, "Give it back! It's mine!"

"Chase what's going on?" I asked.

"You can't see him, but I can?" Chase asked himself. "Kao Behind you!"

Kao was suddenly hit by something across the face. He dropped to the floor swiftly and without a noise; he was out cold.

"Chase, you wanna narrate what's happening for us since we can't see our opponent?" I said quickly.

"I can't see him now", Chase stated.

"WHAT!" Alice screamed, "How can you see him on second and not the other!"

"How can you not see him", Chase said.

"He's got a point you know", I chuckled out. Alice glared. The glare continued for the next few second which created a really awkward moment.

"Garret, duck!" Chase commanded. I motioned to duck, but my reaction wasn't quick enough. I felt a cold hard fist crush into my jaw. I fell to the ground holding my jaw; I was still conscious, but that hurt like hell. Then I felt the force of an elbow being driven into my back. The pain fluttered through my body, I was still conscious, but I just couldn't find the strength to move.

"Alice, over here", Chase called out. Chase grabbed her hand and ran. As Chase was about to guide into a hall, she stopped.

"Chase, are you alright?" Alice asked with a weird face on.

"Ya, now come on. We've got to hurry", Chase said trying to pull her arm. She wouldn't budge. "Come on!"

"Okay, now I know that sugar's really gotten to your head. You realize you're trying into a wall right?" Alice said and asked.

"What are you talking about?"

"The wall? The one you're about to run into?" Alice said. Chase let go of her hand and walked forward. He disappeared into the wall right before Alice's eyes. "What's going on?"

"It's an illusion, but it's only affecting you guys for some reason. Now let's hurry!" Chase said sternly. "Alice, you go ahead. I'll buy you some time."

"But I can't see where I'm going", Alice said.

"It's a Double Reverse Illusion. It reverses walls and paths; just walk into the walls and if you actually run into a real wall, then know that I got him and I'll be laughing at you. Now go and remember paths are wall and walls are paths." Chase said as he saw the man standing there. The man just stood there motionless.

"How is it that your immune to my illusions", the man asked as he unzipped Chase's backpack?

"Leave us alone and give me back my backpack", Chase said. The man smiled at Chase as he reached in grabbed several packets of sugar and poured them into his mouth. "Hey! Those are mine!"

"Not any more", the man said swallowing the sugar. Remi's brother started to grab packet after packet, opening them and pouring them on the ground. Chase's face wore a devastated look as the ounces of sugar dropped to the floor.

I could see Chase standing there in shock of something, but I didn't know what.

'Chase, remember you don't have a weapon', I thought out.

'Thank you for the update, Captain Obvious' Chase thought as a smirk drew on his face.

"That's a real wall, that's a fake, that's a OUCH!" Alice yelled as she walked into her third already.

"HUH! Stairs! That's good! Yes!" Alice said rubbing her head as she started to climb up the ladder. Alice's was back in the old house; she ran out the door as fast as she could. She stopped outside the door to catch her breathe. The illusions faded away.

"I've figured out your secret now, sucker", Alice said talking about the illusionist.

"Are you okay, dear", a man asked kindly. He was an older man; grey short hair, beard, and a cane. Okay he was a really old man, but he looked in really good shape. It was almost as though he didn't need the cane to walk.

"AWWWW!" Alice screamed as she tried to run away, but was stopped by the man.

"Alice", I groaned out.

"No! Alice!" Chase yelled.

"It's alright. I'm here to help", the old man said to Alice.

'I've got to beat him. For my sugar! NO! NO! For Alice and Team Starlight' Chase loudly shouted to himself in his head.

"Well playtime is over", the man said tearing the last pack of sugar out of Chase's backpack, "I have a mission to complete and you're not going to get in my way."

"And I have a friend to protect and I'm not going to let you get in my way."

"Suit yourself."

"ARGHHHHH", I groaned out in pain as I forced my muscles to move. Every move I made burned on my muscles and was full of pain. I crawled to Kao and shook him frantically. He wouldn't wake up. I overheard Chase talking to Alice, about the whole wall and path switching thing; so I decided to give it a try. I snagged ahold of Kao's shirt and dragged him along with me as I crawled through what looked like walls.

Alice's scream echoed through Chase's head. It encouraged him; strengthened him for the time being. Knowing he had to win, pumped adrenaline through his veins; Chase had always had Team Starlight to fight with him and now he was alone in his battle.

'Garret and Kao are down. Alice's is in trouble. I have to do this!'
