A/N: fast update brought thanks to Sean a.k.a some guy I don't know who wants an update. Also, Damage to the Prince is somewhat realistic in this fanfic.
The Prince got through the first puzzle pretty easily and entered a new room, which was tall and circular and had horizontal poles and platforms scattered along the room. As the Prince looked around, he saw an arrow barely miss his head. He turned his attention to a new type of sand creature at the top of the room. This new breed of sand creature was more human like than the last breed and was equipped with a bow and a quiver of arrows. The Prince decided it was best to get to the top quick, so he ran up a diagonal platform and started running diagonally up the wall to a horizontal pole, which he swung to a horizontal platform from. As soon as he landed on the platform through, an arrow pierced his left shoulder.
What? Before now, the sand creatures weren't smart, but now they know how far ahead to shoot if someone's running along a wall? No matter. I'm still smarter than they are. I'll simply swing on the next pole longer so that there's a greater chance of him missing, the Prince thought as he bandaged the wound. He run up the next diagonal platform and along the wall to the next poll, where he theory proved correct. The sand monster fired an arrow and missed, and the Prince used the time that it took the sand monster to reload to go to the next platform where he was safe again.
The Prince eventually made it to the top where he killed the sand creature. The Prince walked out of the room through a door at the top and was in a large rectangular room that had lots of room for…fight perhaps? The room was empty but foreboding, so he was sure to keep his guard up in case of anything. And surely enough, something did happen. A figure came out of the ground, and The Prince realized that it was the demon form of him.
The Prince groaned "at least I know I'm going to survive this adventure, but the fact that I'm that cloaked guy's lackey really sucks"
"I am here by my own choice, driven partially mad from the information I found on this adventure, I am here to stall you so that 'it' has better chance of being destroyed"
"What is this 'it' you speak of…you know what. You're obviously not going to tell me, so I'll just figure out on my own." The Prince said
"very well. We, who are about to die, salute you" The dark said bowing. The dark Prince took out his chain whip and ran toward the Prince, ready to attack. The Prince rolled to the side of his attacker, and attempted to slice of his leg. The attacker was too fast though. He spun around to avoid the attack and ran toward the center of the room. He looked in deep concentration, and after a few seconds melded into the ground. The Prince looked around waiting for the Dark Prince to come up.
Must be a new sand attack. I'll try using one of my attacks to counter it, the Prince thought and slowed down time for himself. Shortly after he did this, he saw black spikes slowly coming out of the ground at random spots, and the Prince decided it wasn't safe on the ground. It was then that he noticed that the wall had a ledge not too far up the wall all around the room. The Prince ran up the wall and clung onto it. The barrage of the black spikes and the Prince's slowing down of time soon ended though, and the Dark Prince rose out of the ground.
"There's something new for you. Now for something you've seen before" The dark Prince said and a cloud of sand gathered into his body, followed by a second and a third. The Prince knew what attack he was using and decided to see what would happen if he used it too. They each released a large explosion from themselves and collided with each other's. While the two explosions were colliding, a black blur was running around the Prince in a circle. He must be slowing down time. I'll just do the same, he said and tried slowing down time for himself, but he was out of sand. Damn. He has more sand than me, he thought and realized a whirlwind forming around him.
The Prince could do nothing but wait for the Dark Prince to do with him what he pleased. Soon, the force of the explosion that the two Princes made was dragged into the whirlwind, making it a whirlwind of explosions. This whirlwind made a hole in the roof and the wind finally took effect on the Prince and bring him up. After getting a quick glimpse of the room above, the Prince hit his head on the roof of the room and fell unconscious.
A/N: sorry this is kinda short. I wanted to end with a cliffhanger
