The child wakes quite quickly, realizing what time it was, he jumped from his bed and ran to his closet and put on his clothing as quickly as possible… "Burshurbutible…" He mutters gibberish under his breath as he tries to quickly put on his clothing… In his haste, however, he had not realized that he was taking much longer than he would, had he been calmer. Eventually, however, the child finally gets his clothing on… In a sloppy mess he rushes out of his room to reach the confession booth, "I am too late… How long was I asleep?" He whispers in disappointment of himself to himself as he suddenly sees a monk passing monk. The child rushes to the monk and asks, "What time is it right now?"
"Oh, well, you are up when you are normally up, why do you ask?"
"I am up early? But… I thought I was… Never mind it."
"Why do you ask? You should get to the confessional before any of the other monks come though, I will see you in a short time, be ready for your day of training. Also, aren't you tired? You were asleep for only a quarter of a day, after 5 days… I am just surprised."
"What are you talking about Auden? I just trained with you yesterday and I slept a trisect of a day before the training."
"Do you not remember the trials you had to bear in the last 4 days?"
"What trials? Do you mean 'The Showing'?"
"The child has forgotten of the trials he had faced in dream within the confines of Sinas? How can this be? I shall ask how this is at a later time, but perhaps I shouldn't try reminding him, such memories would cloud his judgment and thinking during the training…"
"Yes, didn't 'The Showing' drain you of much of your energy? I thought you would be out for much longer."
"No, I am fine, and I am ready for more training, I will see you later in the courtyard. Thank you for your cares, good-bye!"
"Good-bye Brian."
Brian notices a few monks are waiting at the confessional, and rather than waiting, he decides to go and eat first. Walking down the large room, along the long carpet, he is stopped by the guard, Marmaduke, "Hello Brian, how are you doing? I thought something happened to you, have not seen you in a few days."
"What are you talking about Marmaduke? I just talked to you yesterday… Your memory is starting to leave you."
"Huh, perhaps it is just me, b-"
Suddenly, a small tremor is felt underneath their feet, and the building seems to move a bit.
"What is going on!" Marmaduke says in surprise, "This building isn't supposed to move in the least bit, sorry Brian, I need to leave to speak with the Grand Abbot, go ahead and eat, if an emergency arises, I will be sure to tell you."
Marmaduke runs off to find the Grand Abbot, and Brian, now worried, goes to eat his food. Brian enters the room, and finds Pat making bread, "Hello monk Pat, how are you doing?"
"I am doing just fine today, but did you feel that just now?"
"Yes, I did, and Marmaduke is going to see the Grand Abbot about it."
"That is good to hear, anyway, here is some freshly baked bread, straight from the oven!"
"Thank you very much Pat, I will be sure to enjoy this, see you later!"
"Good-bye Brian."
Brian goes off to seat himself, and eats his bread quite quickly, and decides to run off into the courtyard to start training. Brian finds himself in the courtyard before he realizes it and decides to search behind the pillars to find Auden, rather than repeat what happened the day before, knowing that enemies will likely try sneaking on him as well. Brian goes behind the first pillar, "Ha!" He yells to take the instructor off guard, alas, he finds nothing, but… Suddenly behind him the words are heard, "This is for your training, dodge these! Wind Cutter Lv.2!"
Suddenly turned around, Brian sees his instructor behind him, swinging his arm to release 3 blades of wind! The three blades veer around almost in almost strategic ways, Brian sees himself surrounded on all sides by oncoming blades of wind, on is coming at his back and going high, one to his left front heading towards the center and one to the right front head towards his head! Just as suddenly as Brian realized the situation he was in, he seemed to loose control of himself… The blades, each at equal speeds, of equal distance from the child, he does something completely unexpected… He waits… The blades each all at but a few meters away, the swift-moving blades- "Magic Barrier!" Just as suddenly surprised by the blades coming at himself, unknowingly swings his arms out and sends them to a clap, and bringing his arms out again in front of him is a small orb of light, he raises his arms and with them comes the orb of light, he then opens up his arms as far from his body to his sides as possible, and the amazing orb of crimson light surrounds him, and a smile appears upon his face… An amazement appears in the eyes of the monk, Auden, as the Blades hit this barrier and add themselves to the strength of the orb, a speechless fear and amazement. Suddenly Brian screams, "What is going on?"
The monk falls to his knees, in fear of the result, he speaks, "Show yourself, Demon of Sinas!"
Brian, in confusion asks, "What was the reason for th-" Abruptly the child lets out a blood curdling scream, a scream that made the monks face grimace. The child screamed in pain as the monk readied himself for what might come, as well, praying for the safety of the child.
Screaming, as suddenly as it occurred, stopped and was replaced by a distorted and chilling voice, "Bwahahahaha! Bow before me, monk! I have taken your Chosen Child, bow before me or perish!"
"Never!" The monk screams in a rage only surpassed by his sadness for the child.
"…a creature has never broken the grip of the Unholy God… …destroying them is the only way…"
The mind of the child says over and over in his mind, becoming ever weaker in the grip of the Unholy God…
"You have sealed your fate, monk!" Suddenly, the unholy child opens his arms, still under the protection of the barrier, and yells, still in the evil voice, "This is the end of you! EXTINCTION!" The child brings his left arm up, his right down, bringing his hands together in a clap, and slams his hands to the ground, a light shining under the ground, heading for the monk…
…But I can be the first!…
