Chapter 10
The Mind Of
A Hero
Dwayne awoke in a dark void. He couldn't see anything, but he could feel the coldness of stone under him. He stood up. He started walking around, one hand on the hilt of his katana, the other feeling in front of him.
"Where the fuck am I?" He asked himself. Suddenly, he could hear voices.
"Welcome, young savior." A voice said. He reconized it as his own.
"What the fuck!?" Dwayne shouted. "Where am I?"
"Inside your mind." It spoke. "Here, you will learn everything."
"Is that so?" Dwayne said with a cocky tone. "How can I teach myself what I don't even know?"
"Do not be a smartass." It said. "Search your mind, and you will learn."
Dwayne started walking, shaking his head.
"What-the-fuck-ever, dude." He muttered. "This is seriously starting to piss me off. The longer I'm here, the closer Crusader gets!"
He saw a light ahead of him. He began to run towards it. He stopped when he saw himself.
"What the fuck?" Dwayne asked.
"I am you. The part that has full control over your Magic." It said. "Come to me, and we will unite as one."
Dwayne slowly walked towards it, as it walked towards him. He suddenly saw a bright light. When it cleared, he didn't see himself.
He looked at his hands. He felt different. His body tingled, and he felt like he was stronger now.
"What happened?" Dwayne asked himself. "What's wit this feeling?"
He held out his hand. He concentrated on his gem. He saw a fireball form, and shoot in front of him. He smirked.
"I understand." He muttered. "Now, Crusader, you are mine."
He started walking back. Then, he could see some goblins.
"Hm...a test? Fine." Dwayne said, drawing his sword.
He smirked as his sword became a blade of flames. He lunged at the Monsters, slashing at them. He sent a wave of fire at them.
As it slammed into them, there was a massive, fiery explosion. He smirked.
"I see." Dwayne said. "I'm ready now."
Dwayne closed his eyes and found himself in front of Joey.
"How are you, Dwayne?" Joey asked.
"Never better. Let's go to the others." Dwayne said.
They walked back to where the others were. They stood up upon seeing him.
"Dwayne, what happened?" Jeff asked.
"I understand, Jeff." Dwayne replied. "Are you guys ready?"
"Yup. Ready to go, partner." Jeff said.
"Let's get this demon." Krystle added.
"Let's go pay this bastard back for everything!" Natalie snapped.
Dwayne turned to Joey.
"What will you do?" Dwayne asked. "Are you going to stay here?"
"No. I am going along with you." Joey replied. "I want to fight again."
"Thanks, Joey." Dwayne said.
"Alright, already! Can we go!?" Natalie asked.
The others looked at her and nodded. Joey then teleported them to the ruins of Michi's town.
