Chapter 3
The starting path of my training
A moment later I was starting to wake up , everything was a bit hazy and I can see bit by bit due to feeling like I was hit by a bus. While I was trying to wake up I heard an argument and its getting clearer.
Mysterious person 1 said "OF ALL CHOICES BROTHER YOU CHOSE TO BREAK ONE RULE TO SAVE THIS BOY!". Then Mysterious person 2 said "I had no choice the Heartless had found him and tried to take his life, it's the only way to bring the balance back". Mysterious person 1replied with "but we don't know if it's him, plus it's impossible for someone like him able to be chosen at that age to-"."And it's impossible for a group of heartless going haywire over one child unless it's important to them so we have no choice brother" Mysterious person 2 replied and won the argument.
Then I was starting to sit up slowly and got my vision cleared. I saw the two people, one that looks like a bald old man but also look young and wears black outfit like an evil warlock, the other one was the same person that I saw the moment I was knocked out.
" Ow Ow Ow- first of all I'm not a kid, second of all thanks for saving me, and third of all who are you and where am I?". The moment I tried to stand up I can feel lots of pain all over my body making it hard to move. Then the man with the white clothing said "you should relax now Migeru you are safe."
I was confused and still thinking about where the hell am I. So I got a little panic and pushed myself to even reach the window and see the view if there is anything I know that is familiar. I tried to move to the window even though my entire body hurts, the man in white clothes said "Wait I don't think it's a good idea to look outside-"
I didn't pay attention to him because I'm worried about knowing where I am, and at the moment". I felt confused and panicked because I can't find my home, but due to wasting my energy standing I fainted again.
I woke up again and thought it was a dream " wow who knew it's a dream all along, I dreamt about being in some room from an unknown place while being saved by an old man and some samurai HEHAHAHAHA isn't that funny." Then the man in black clothes appeared right beside me out of nowhere and shout out in pure of anger "IM NOT OLD YOU IDIOT!" I got startled by his appearance and made me think that im still in my dream.
I turned my head slowly and saw the old man watching me with angry expression, the moment I saw him I said "maybe it's a dream in a dream that's why the old man is still there" I tried to rub his baldy and shiny head to see if it's still a dream "hmm for some reason the old man's head is real, smooth and is shiny like a pearl and for some reason the fire on his hair seem real but it's not burning my hand ". The old man's face began to change into even more redder color and have an angry face, he then raised his fist above his head and hit me so hard on my head and yelled " HOW MANY TIMES I TELL YOU I'M NOT OLD And WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TO TELL MY HEAD IS SMOOTH AND SHINY LIKE A PEARL YOU LITTLE BRAT!"
I rubbing my hand where he slammed his fist I felt like I got hit by a sledgehammer me at the head and I yell out in pain "OUUUUCH!" and the lumped than the moment I finally realized that it's not a dream, my face change to a panicked expression and I yelled in fears and shock "OH MY GOSH, I FELT THE PAIN AND THAT MEANS THE CREEPY OLD MAN IS REAL! WHICH MEANT I'M NOT DREAMING!".
The old man is getting more frustrated of watching me and hearing me panicked and calling him an old man, old man then took a few deep breaths to calm down his nerve, a bit. He calmly walked up to me and grabbed my shirt harshly, and forcefully pull me close to his face. When I looked in his eyes I can see his eyes burning like a raging sun.
he said in a very low harsh tone grinding through his teeth "First of all, I'm not old-" "How old are you?" I interrupted his speech.
Then the old man replied unconsciously reflected "one hundr- I mean sixty years old" 'actually I'm 160 thought which is pretty young age for the keyblade weilder which is they live for 500 years.' I replied " you were to say a hundred didn't you" the old man said "um no I meant-" he looked away nervously.i shouted " I WAS RIGHT YOU WERE-" the old man then punched me at the head and shouted out " FINISH THAT SENTENCE BOY AND ILL SHOW YOU MY WAY OF MERCY!".
I shut my mouth tightly while my whole body is shaking in fear. Then the old man took a deep breath again to calm down his rage and said in a harsh tone. " second this is not a dream"he poked my forehead In a aggressive yet gentle way "this is all real." He then wrapped his finger around my neck and squeezed my neck lightly tight , which made me gasp a bit, he then let's go of my neck and moved away from me so that I can breath and he introduced himself to me with his tone full of authority and power "Third of all my name is xehanort".
The door opens which enter another person, he looks like an eastern Japanese samurai but not full body armor and he called out to xehanort in a calm and powerful tone "Now, now calm down xehanort, you don't need to threaten the kid anymore or you will get him traumatize."
That young samurai then came in the room and says to me in a gentle tone " I'm sorry about my brother he is always cranky and hot headed sometimes, but what matter is that you are safe my name is Eraqus in case you needed to know my - are you ok .".
I didn't say anything I was shocked that not only this is real but also how scary Xehanort is. Then the samurai is confused based on the surprised expression on my face knowing that the young samurai is real , I then passed out unconsciously.
Eraqus then told Xehanort in a upset tone " you shouldn't have to scared him brother.", Xehanort then got angry and yelled with rage "WELL ITS NOT MY FAULT, HE KEEPS INSULTING ME BY MY AGE. and he showed no respect to his elders!" . Eraqus then took out a mirror and face it to Xehanort and said " you do look old to me."
His face started to get furious that even Eraqus called him old. He then clenched his hand to form a fist and use all his rage to punch the mirror. The mirror got shattered from Xehanort's punch into millions of pieces. Xehanort then says with a tense tone "anything else you want to say Eraqus?" Then Eraqus replied with calm "yeah, you do realize breaking a mirror is a seven year bad luck right?"
Xehanort then got furious and was growling with anger, so he decided to walk out of the door heading to the training ground to let out some "steam ".
Then thirty minutes later I started to wake up, and I notice the first thing he saw is the ceiling is green and blue with stars that actually shine that it looked like real stars. I thought that I'm still dreaming, I was about to sleep, but then I noticed that I hear sounds of arguments and for some reason I hear flying plates and big explosions and small explosions. I felt the bed shaking from all the quake, I fell from the bed and i still thought it was a dream.
Then I looked around and I saw a door ahead of me, I got up and limp my way to the door quietly as possible. I opened the door and saw a long dark hallway with few candles on the wall to light the hallway.
I tried to limp my way to find the exit, but I found a door that slightly open that shines brightly to light up the hallway. I tried to take a closer look in the room and found a library vast with many books,and a fireplace that is wide enough for me to feel warm; but suddenly I saw a shadow so I lean to the door closer and saw it was Eraqus reading a book. I tried to get a closer look I accidentally push the door that made me trip; I tried to hold the pain but it hurts so much.
So I tried to crawl away from the door so he wouldn't notice me and I left to find the exit, but what I didn't know is that he knew I was finding the exit. So I kept going but it was so dark for me to see, then it activated the vision that happened a while ago and found the door to get out and I said in relief "Finally I can go home." But the moment I opened the door and saw what confuses me too much is I'm in an unknown place. the sky is green and blue, there are vast hills and places, there are millions of stars in the sky( even though it's amazing), and there is no buildings mostly it felt peaceful. I limp slowly to the grass and realize that I'm not home and everything is real. "It's nice isn't it." Eraqus said behind me. "I expected you to panic more like the last time you were awake." I stood quiet realizing that I'm lost and said" so... it's all real does that mean I'm gone away from my home." Then Eraqus started to laugh and I turned and got mad and yell " WELL WHATS SO FUNNY HUH!".Eraqus made a gentle smile and said "your not far away from home your just in a pocket dimension that I made". I got confuse on what he said like he is high. He then said" look up closely." I looked up and try to focus more and saw that same tree that I fell from and my face change from anger to relieve and joy. "oh ok I'm just in another dimension" I said, but then it change to a surprise and said "pocket dimenstion", Eraqus then said "yes in a pocket dimension where i made with my own magic, but i need you to stay more." I was now shocked to hear those words and ask does that mean i won't have to see my home again?".
E`raqis replied saying " not long mostly in earth time sixteen minutes". I have a confuse expression as if its beyond my own knowledge, Eraqus continued "In dimensions like this can have a different time zone than the earth's giving you enough time for you, but in your terms 30 minutes here is 1 second to earth meaning you have the time you need to roam freely in dimensions like this one". I was relieve to hear those words, but in my head i kept thinking about going home.
Then, out of nowhere Xehanort appeared behind me and said in a scary tone " So now you're awake boy." I was surprised and jumped away from him with Xehanort is laughing at me Eraqus then had an annoyed expression but had a serious tone saying "Do you really have to be that obnaxious Xehanort?" Xehanort then had an smile with an evil expression faced at Eraqus and said with humor " It's fun to torture the kid". Then i yelled at him with anger shouting " HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU I'M NOT A KID I'M 18 YEARS OLD!". After the shout i took a deep breath and exhale with calm saying " can i at least go home please?" Xehanort had a smirked smile and said " ok if that is what you want boy, fine you can go home". He stretched out his hand facing at the wall and somehow a portal appeared, I smile and rush to the portal when suddenly Eraqus shout with anger saying " NO!", he swiped his hand at the portal and when the moment that the portal closed my face change in the expression from joy to fear and my face got slammed to the wall. Xehanort laugh like a maniac and said with joy " oh.. i loved that moment… whooo Ha you really know the timing Eraqus." Eraqus then got the mad teacher expression on his face which made Xehanort change his face to a feared expression. Eraqus then yelled at Xehanort with a serious tone saying "Migeru can't go anywhere for now, we need to start training him!". Now i got the expression of being tired to be stuck in this dimension and shout with exhaustion " ARE YOU KIDDING ME!". Xehanort was enrage of what Eraqus said and thought it over and for some reason he had that evil grin on his face, " ok lets do this" Xehanort said. I have an exhausted expression and said " oh great now you wanted to be involve too." Eraqus then reply saying " Migeru you can at least stay for a moment you still need to heal and then we may train you to show you that you have something other people don't have." and i express saying " that's what many people say but i don't believe it." " But what about your wounds your mom will think you were in a fight again." At that moment i realize that I'm still injured and decided to stay by saying " ok you win i'll stay."
