Chapter 6: Mental Battle
With Chaor, he dreamed about a forgotten memory from his childhood. He is at the Lava Pond and saw a large, strong creature training his younger self.
"Chaor, you won't win that way!" the large creature said as he prepares to do a Solar Flare attack.
The young Chaor is tired and looks as if he had been training for hours. "Just- give me-"he spat out the words while out of breath," a- chance to-"Then the larger creature did a Solar Flare on him. He fell onto the ground when it hit him.
"Is that the best you got?" the large creature taunt. "I guess you are weak after all."
"I am not weak!" Young Chaor shouted as he quickly regained his strength. He threw a Flame Orb at the opposing creature and the attack hits the opponent so successfully that he fell onto the ground.
"Not bad," commented the older creature as he got back up," but not good enough."
"Then how's this?" Chaor's child self asked as he prepares a Heat Rage attack. As soon as it's fired, the larger creature dodged the attack. As the attack continues its course, it heads for Dimiz, who is hidden behind the rubble of rocks. It, strangely and successfully, hits him. As Dimiz falls onto the ground, he couldn't keep hold of the blow dart pipe. To shoot a poison dart at the large creature was his plan, but he lost his element of surprise.
"What are you doing here, Dimiz?" asked the large creature.
Dimiz answered, "I was just about to ask why that weakling is doing here."
Chaor then realized the large creature is his father (aka Rageor) and his younger self is about 7- 8 years old at that time.
"And why should a great warrior like you raise a dud like him?" Dimiz continued.
"Chaor, go behind those rocks," the father told him. "You shouldn't be involved in this."
The young Chaor said several buts until his father shouted,"Now!" Since the father is stronger than he is, Chaor did what he told him to do without further questioning.
Back to real life and out by the edge of Fear Valley, Tom and Peyton are still watching the battle. Rageor doesn't have much energy left after many of Dimiz's attacks. Then, Takinom flew and lands next to Tom and Peyton.
"What's going on?" she asked the two male players. Both of them turned their focus on her.
"Well," Peyton tried to explain to her," We found Chaor but-"
"You found Chaor," Takinom interrupts him, "where is he now?"
"He's in that cave over there," Tom explained as he points to where the cave is, "and Sarah and Kaz are watching him, just to let you know."
"I better make sure that he's alright," Takinom said as she takes off for the cave. After she left, the two boys turned their attention to the battle once again.
Meanwhile, at the cave, Sarah and Kaz are having a Chaotic with the cards they have. As Chaor rests on the flat stone, she is winning the battle against Kaz's Underworld army with her Danian army. Then, Takinom came inside and interrupted their battle. Her first priority is to make sure that Chaor was alright. It seemed that he is fine, but he wouldn't wake up to her call.
"Chaor, wake up!" Takinom called out shook Chaor to try to wake him up.
"He's alive, Takinom," Kaz told her, "You don't have yell."
"Then what's wrong with him?" Takinom questioned.
"He said he's alive," Sarah explained," well, we think he is. He got the antidote for the poison and-"
"What do you mean?" Takinom puzzled. Sarah and Kaz explained to her about the Kintu poison, some information on Rageor, and about their adventure.
"So let me get this straight," said Takinom," This guy named Dimiz is the one who managed to do kidnap Chaor, while he is under the influence of Kintu poison, with Telabracers and Rageor was trying to stop him?"
"That's pretty much it," said Kaz. "He's asleep, but it's a matter of how long it is. Besides, we're players not doctors."
Back in Chaor's mind, the battle his father has low energy and he is losing the battle against Dimiz.
"If that's all you got then I think you're an unworthy opponent," Dimiz taunted.
After Dimiz finished his sentence, Rageor charged himself with fire. When his body is covered in flames, he unleashed it on Dimiz. The fire circled around Dimiz and suddenly closed into him causing sever damage. The attack was so strong that it brought both opponents to their knees. Dimiz gave up and quickly fled from him. Soon, the young Chaor came out of hiding to check on his father.
"How did you do that?!" young Chaor eagerly questioned.
"I'll tell you someday, when you're older," his father answered.
Though tired from the battle, Rageor managed to stand up. Soon, both he and young Chaor went out of Chaor's view. Then suddenly, the ground violently quaked and pieces of the Lava Pond broke off and fell into a dark abyss. Chaor tries to avoid it, but the location is crumbling too quickly. Soon, he is at the last piece of the location. When it collapsed under his feet, he too fell into the dark abyss with the other falling pieces of the location.
Sorry it took me soooooooooo long to get this chapter done, but my mind and I got a bit lazy on it. I'll try to get more motivation and complete it soon and thanks for reading this part.
What happened to Chaor, did he die or survive, and can Rageor win the battle against Dimiz? Find out in the next chapter!
