Well, another chapter. I actually didn't even think about this chapter even exsisting until last night.
Wayward Son woke up from a nightmare late at night. He couldn't shake the feeling he had. He knew that if he fell asleep again, he would have the nightmare. It was the fifth time that day that he had woke up form that nightmare. He got out of bed and walked out of the barracks and around the Jade Palace grounds. He went everywhere many times. He looked up at the stars as he was walking. "If that could happen to DB, what's to stop it from happening to me." He sighed. He knew that DB was the most morally sound person he knew. He couldn't believe wht had happened with him. Wayward Son was afraid. Not of what had ahppened, but instead what could happen.
The secret side of me, I never let you see
I keep it caged but I can't control it
So stay away from me the beast is ugly
I feel the rage and I just can't hold it.
Wayward Son held his head. Not from pain, but rather disappointment and fear. "What if it comes out?"
It's scratching on the walls, in the closet, in the halls
It comes awake and I can't control it
Hiding under the bed, in my body, in my head
Why won't somebady come and save me from this, make it end
"How can I know that it won't come out? Why can't I just know?" Tears began to fall.
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I hate what I've become, the nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster
Wayward Son looked up from the ground and to the stars. "I'm a monster on the inside." The tears continued.
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
He let out an agonizing howl, but no one awoke. His tears continued.
My secret side i keep under lock and key
I keep it caged because I can't control it
'Cause if I let him out he'll tear me up, break me down
Why won't somebady come and save me from this, make it end
After his howl, he had an idea. "If I can destroy the evil of DB, maybe it will give me the chance to defeat the evil in me." He then headed off full speed to the lair of the villians, but he still had the feeling.
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I hate what I've become, the nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster
He arrived just outside their lair. He snuck in to go to the room that they had Diablo.
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
He got to where Diablo would be. He struck his sword down, just to hit the bed. He turned around, but all he saw was pitch black. He was sweating, because Diablo had the advantage.
It's hiding in the dark, it's teeth are razor sharp
There's no escape for me, it wants my soul, it wants my heart
Nobody can hear me scream, maybe it's just a dream
Maybe it's inside of me, stop this monster
He heard the evil chuckle. "So, the monstruo came to fight the monstruo."
"I am no monster!" Diablo struck him, making him hit the wall. "I am nothing like you!" He threw some ninja stars.
"Missed. You may not be the same outside, but beneath the skin, the monster is alive." He struck Wayward Son again.
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I hate what I've become, the nightmare's just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster
"Just release it. Feel no more suffering." Diablo threw Wayward Son out his room. "Let it set you free from limits. Let it bring you to the side of complete freedom." Diablo kicked him, hard, so that he slid into the foyer of the base.
I feel it deep within, it's just beneath the skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I've gotta lose control, he's something radical
I must confess that I feel like a monster
A new voice spoke. "He's right. Release it. You will control it, though." They turned to see DB.
"If I release the monster, it will destroy everything."
"It won't."
"IT WILL! I can't control it. I already feel like it." DB threw a spike at Diablo, just to distract him long enough to get Wayward Son out of there. Wayward Son cried all the way back, because he failed and he still felt like a monster.
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
I, I feel like a monster
The duo arrived at the Sacred Peach Tree of Heavenly Wisdom. DB set Wayward Son in front of him. "Why are you crying?" He had concern, yet seriousness in his voice.
"I. I...failed."
"Of course you did. I couldn't beat him. What made you think you could?"
"I hoped that he would have been weak from his fight with you."
"Why would you even go after him?"
"I thought that if I could kill him, that I could beat the monster inside of me."
"Don't fight your monster. Release it. If you have faith in God, you will know that you can control it. True, it will weaken you after you have used it, but while you use it, it will make you stronger than me."
"But, how do I control it?"
"You have to find the answer in yourself. Now, go off to bed."
"Alright. You coming?"
"Not yet."
Wayward Son left for the barracks.
Barracks
Wayward Son opened DB's door, to see how Wan was sleeping without DB there. He opened it to find Wan awake...and staring at a sleeping DB. She turned to him and smiled. "He still hasn't gotten up. He's so cute when he's sleeping."
"How long have you been up?"
"About three hours now."
Wayward Son was surprised, because it hadn't even been half an hour since his fight with Diablo. "You sure?"
"Yes."
Wayward Son ran off quickly to the Sacred Peach Tree of Heavenly Wisdom.
Sacred Peach Tree of Heavenly Wisdom
He reached it. DB was gone, but a note was there. It read
My Son,
You have now learned that I wasn't DB. Learn to use what you see as weakness as your strength. It will help you in the future.
With the greatest love,
Your Father God
P.S. Stop feeling like a monster
Wayward Son couldn't believe it. He had been with God in disguise. Not an angel, but God. "Okay. I'll stop feeling like a monster and learn to use it." He went back to bed and fell asleep with happy dreams.
Well, I bet none of you expected that, did ya? Well, please review! Also, I don't own the song. But, man is it a good one.
