It has been a 2 weeks since you had last went to the mindscape. You were in your room at night, and thought about Bill. He had stopped coming to your room to pick you up for training. Also during the day he barely interacted with you. Then you took a breath in, and got up. You went down to Bill's room in the basement. You opened the door, and said, "Bill are you here?" You tripped on the stairs and fell down hurting your arm. You whimpered and rubbed the spot where you had hit. Bill rushed over and looked at you.
"Why are you here," he said.
"I want to go to back the mindscape," you whispered then said, "I don't care about what had happened. I will get stronger, and I can help you." You were scared, and then saw Bill smile.
"Okay," he said, "But we aren't going back to the base until you are stronger." You nodded your head in agreement, and he grabbed your hand. But it felt different to you, and you smiled.
"Reality is an illusion, the universe is a hologram, buy gold buy," he said. You were in the meadow, and you were already changed into the your uniform not the gown.
"How am I already changed," you asked.
"The same reason I am. This is your fighting outfit. Your main outfit in this world," he said in his tailcoat, "Now let's begin. Here is a sword." A sword in a sheath materialized in his hand, and he gave it to you. He materialized another sword.
He said., "While fighting you must stay cool, and calm. You must keep your balance. So we will practice here." Then he waved his hand and the place they were was now a gorge. There were two sides on cliffs, and a rope in the middle.
"This is Covert Gorge," he said, "A mysterious place. If you fall who knows what will happen."
"How did we get here," you asked looking into the gorge.
"Teleportation you will learn it soon," he said smiling, "Now try to cross the gorge on this rope." Your eyes went wide, but you nodded your head yes. You walked over to the rope, and put one foot down. It wobbled and you gasped. Out off the corner off your eye you saw Bill take a step towards you. You still continued, and you were absolutely terrified. You were only halfway through when you slipped a little. You moved your body You slipped a little more, and screamed. You fell off, and in seconds Bill had caught you. You opened your eyes, and Bill was there. You were shaking all over with fear.
"Are you okay," he asked.
"Y-yeah," you said. He put you down, and let out a sigh of relief.
"How about we go home," he said and you nodded yes,"Reality is an illusion, the universe is a hologram, buy gold buy."
