What do you desire? Money and Wealth? Honor and Pride? Authority and Power? Revenge Or something that transcends all that? Whatever you Desire is here at the top of the tower
in a Cave with a large bundle of Golden flowers layed a boy with an amber skin tone and messy shoulder length maroon hair wearing long sleeve lime shirt with one horizontal yellow stripe, and nondescript pants and shoes
"Uh my head" The boy said as he took in the scenery but as he did the flowers that he was on now started to glow he closed his eyes as the brightness was to much for him. but as he opened them again he then saw himself in front of a large barred gate
The Boy looked and noticed a strange rabbit looking creature with a staff staring right at him.
"Welcome" The Creature said
"Uh high" The Boy said
"If I may ask? How did you get here?" The Creature said
"Uh...I fell on a bundle of Golden Flowers" The boy said
"Golden Flowers? so you fell into that cave and found an entrance? Interesting. tell me what is your name?" The Creature said
"Kris...and who are you?" The boy said.
"My name is Headon I am the Administrator of the First Floor" Headon
"Administrator? does that mean that this is the Tower?" Kris said
"It is, however in order for you to continue on you need to pass my test" Headon said
"What kind of Test?" Kris said
"Before I tell you, you need to answer this question, what is it you Desire?" Headon said
"What do you mean?" Kris said
"Everyone who comes to the tower all have a purpose to climb it, and I am asking what is yours?" Headon said
Kris just looked down as he clenched his chest
"I don't know, I just feel "Determined" to do it" Kris said
"Determined?" Headon said
"I cant really explain it, but its just this feeling that wont go away, Like something is telling me to continue forward and climb up. So I guess my desire...is trying to find out what my desire is" Kris said
"Interesting, well if that is what strives you, then I hope you are prepared for what is to come" Headon said as his staff glowed
And as it did a huge rumbling started to occur
Headon then pointed his staff towards the Large gated area and as Kris looked further he noticed a floating ball in the middle of the room
"You see that ball there? All you need to do is break it and you will advance to the next floor" Headon said
"Thats it?, that sounds a bit to easy" Kris said with skepticism
"Your Right" Headon said
Suddenly the whole room started to rumble and as Kris looked again he then noticed a huge Eel like creature now swimming in the large area.
"Oh" Kris said wide eyed
"I must warn you that creature hasn't eaten in days, and the last person that was here was able to wound it and continue forward so it is in a very aggressive mood, But if you are to scared to continue on, your more then welcome to leave" Headon said
Kris then slowly took a step back as he felt a slight prick of fear running through his body.
"No I didn't come all this way to run now, I have to do this. No matter what" Kris thought to himself
Kris then took a deep breath and then charged in through the gate but as he went through he was shocked that what he though was water wasn't obstructing him he quickly started to run towards the ball as the Giant Eel Creature chased him, The Eel swooped down as it tried to swallow Kris but he slid under it and made it to the Ball.
"Made it" Kris said as he took out his blade and stabbed it thinking that it was going to easily break but was only to plunge the blade a centimeter
"What?" Kris said concerned
He then went to stab it again but it still wouldn't break
"Come on" Kris said as the Eel started to get closer.
And as Kris 's knife started going in deeper the ball refused to break, ands it wasn't long until the Eel swallowed him and the Ball up,
Kris held onto the Handle of the blade tightly as it was still stuck in the ball.
"Is this it?' Kris thought to himself
The roof of the eels Mouth then started close down on him he then quickly flipped over to be underneath the Ball, the roof of the mouth then started to press onto the ball hard as Kris pushed back with his blade. he could see the ball now slowly cracking around
"COOOOOOME OOOOOOOOON!" Kris yelled
Then a glowing red light in the shape of a heart then started to glow on Kris's chest, the light moved towards the blade as it made the ball glow red and then within a second the ball shattered in a huge ray of light, as he vanished.
Headon looked on and saw the Eel Spit out the remains of the ball. but with Kris no where to be found
"It seems that you have done it, but be careful, for you will need more then "Determination" to find your desire." Headon said with a toothy smile
(Open field)
Kris then looked up to the sky,bright blue and covered in clouds as he layed there on the dirt ground surrounded by tall brown grass. he quickly got up and checked himself and he noticed that he didn't have his blade anymore.
"I lost my weapon, great" Kris said annoyingly
ATTENTION!
Kris looked up towards the noise and noticed floating cube in the air.
hello regulars and welcome to the second floor of the tower. this testing floor will determine if you are worthy of climbing the rest of the tower, as of right now there are 400 of you on this floor reduce that number to 200 within the alotted time frame. you can use any method you wish, once there are 200 of you left the test will come to an end. and keep in mind your pocket will display who remains, good luck." the cube then dissapeared as its broadcast ended.
"Wait a Pocket? whats a Pocket?" Kris said
Suddenly he felt an arrow nick his cheek.
"Oh Crap" Kris said as he quickly ducked and ran into the Tall brown Grass
somewhere else in the open plain a Purple Dragon like girl was currently walking and away from sight as she took out what looked like a piece of chalk and put it in her mouth.
"Okay now that nobody saw that.. lets kick some ass" The girl said to herself as she ran.
In another part of the floor a Creature in a green wizard hat and a red scarf that was concealing his face in complete dark was currently running as someone was chasing him.
"Stop running and fight you coward" one of the regulars yelled with a knife in his hand
and as soon as the regular caught up with him and tried to strike down the creature his scarf then suddenly caught his arm as it flipped him on his back. the Creature then quickly placed his hand on the guys head
"Pacify" The Creature said as a flash of light came out of his hand knocking the man out.
The Creature then sighed in relief as he didnt need to hurt the man to much.
He then started to hear something russling in the tall brown grass and before he could react him and the individual both fell to the ground.
The Creature looked and saw who knocked him and his hat down
"Ow" Kris said as he got up and saw who he ran into and through his blurry vision the Creature quickly put his Wizard hat back on concealing his face.
Kris then quickly backed away. as he almost tripped over the other Man on the ground but what really drew his attention was the weapon in the mans hand.
"My Knife" Kris said as he quickly picked it up and pointed it at the person who he bumped into.
"! $ #$#$ !#! $#$# $! " the Creature said
"What?" Kris said
"! ##$ # !#!#!~!" The Creature said
"I don't understand what your saying" Kris said
" #! #$ !#Pocket" The Creature said
"Pocket?" Kris said
The Creature then raised his arm and as he did, a small device in the shape of a flower appeared. The Creature then started messing with it and then it vanished.
"There Can you understand me now?" The Creature said
"Yeah...What was that?" Kris said
"That was my Custom made Pocket, its what we all use in here in order to communicate with each other I configured it to match your language, You don't have one?" The Creature said
"The only thing I have in regards to communicating is this?" Kris said as he pulled out a mordern looking Flip Phone.
"Hmmm Let me have a look at that" The Creature said as he held out his hand.
Kris reluctant at first then handed his Phone to The Creature.
"Where did you get this?" The Creature said as he was inspecting it
"I got it...From a "friend" Kris said
Hmm it seems to have the basic Functions of a Pocket, here I'll show you" The Creature said as he went to explain it to Kris.
"Whoa I didn't know it had any of these" Kris said as he took the Cell Phone back.
"There now you'll have no problems communicating from here on out" The Creature said smiling.
"Thank you ugh..I didn't get your name" Kris said
"Its Ralsei, and yours" The Creature said
"Kris" Kris said
"Well thank you Kris for not trying to kill me," Ralsei said
"Likewise" Kris said
"Its such a shame that everyone just quickly resorted to violence rather then finding Alternatives to reduce the Number" Ralsei said
"Well is there?" Kris said as he looked at the downed man thinking he is dead
"Yes, that man right there, he's not dead I just pacified him and now he will be asleep for the next few hours, long after the time limit to this test runs out" Ralsei said
"is it really that easy to do for you?" Kris said
"Well the Man wasn't very strong" Ralsei said
Kris then looked at his Cellphone and noticed it was only at 320
"This might take a while" Kris said
"Hey I got an Idea how about We..." Ralsei
"I GOT YOU NOW!"
Both of them then looked up at the sky and noticed a Purple dragon looking girl coming down on towards them with a huge Ax. and they quickly dodged out of the way.
"Dammit I missed" The Girl Yelled
"Then why did you give away your Position by yelling?" Kris said
"Well uh, because...shut up thats why" Susie said
"Thats not really a good arguement" Ralsei said
"No ones talking to you Scarfy" Susie said
"Scarfy?" Ralsei said confused
"Yeah get it, because your wearing a Scarf Haha and that boy right by you is a Runt" Susie said as she laughed
"Both Kris and Ralsei sweatdropped.
"Well then does not mean I can call you "Toothy because you got jagged teeth" Kris said
"The Girl then stopped laughing as she looked at Kris with anger over the insult
"My name is Susie Runt, and my Teeth are not jagged and even if they are I can still bite both of your faces off in a second" The Girl said
"So you admit you have Jagged teeth?" Kris said
"What? No" Susie said
"But you said even if they "are" though?" Kris said
"Susie face then went red with embarrasment now realizing how she worded her sentence, and then she got angry
"IM GONNA KICK YOUR ASSES!" Susie screamed as she charged towards them with her Ax.
"Run!" Ralsei screamed
Both Kris and Ralsei then started to run as Susie started chasing them.
"Lets see who has the Jagged Teeth once I'm done with you two!" Susie screamed
Ralsei then tripped as Susie came closing in.
"I got you!" Susie screamed
But as her Ax started to come down. it was stopped as Kris blocked the Blow with his Knife.
Ralsei then quickly placed his hand on Susies stomach.
"Pacify" Ralsei said as his hand glowed
But Susie was completly unfazed aside from feeling a little groggy.
"DON'T TOUCH ME!" Susie yelled as she kicked Ralsei away who quickly defended by using his scarf
"RALSEI!" Kris yelled
Kris then turned towards Susie as a red glow appeared on his chest. and then with his strength then quickly pushed Susie back.
"Wow for a Little Runt your quite Strong" Susie said shocked as she pushed forward.
"You should never underrestimate" Kris said as he jumped back. Susie and Kris then charged towards each other.
"DODODODODODODODODODO"
Kris and Susie then stopped midway as they both looked up and noticed the floating Cube again but instead of a feminine voice it was now a deep and somewhat tired and lazy voice
"HEYA TO EVERYONE WHO IS STILL ALIVE, STOP FIGHTING NOW, OH AND IF YOU KEEP AT IT AT THIS POINT YOU WILL HAVE FAILED THE TEST"
AHHH MAAAN!" Susie screamed as she planted her Ax onto the Ground
"Phew" Ralsei said relieved
Kris then sheathed his Knife.
"OOOOOOOOOK, NOW FOR THE SECOND TEST, ITS QUITE SIMPLE, JUST FIND TWO OTHERS AND STICK TO THEM LIKE GLUE FOR THE NEXT FIVE MINUTES, THOSE WILL BE YOUR ALLIES FOR THE NEXT TEST AND BEYOND, I'M ONLY PATELLAING YOU THIS ONCE, FIVE MINUTES THATS ALL YOU HAVE HEHE...OH COME ON THAT WAS A "KNEE" SLAPPER"
the cube was then abruptly cut off.
The three of them then looked at each other.
"Soooooo" Ralsei said
"No" Susie said as she turned around ready to leave.
"Oh come on Sure you tried to kill us earlier but I'm sure that if we hang out more we'll become good allies" Ralsei said
"Whatever Scarfy, You and the runt can team up, I'm outta here" Susie said
"And how do you plan on finding someone let alone two in just five minutes" Kris said as he pointed the open landscape with no one in sight
"I'll find a way and besides I'm sure you wouldn't want to team up with a Girl like me" Susie said as she continued onward
Ralsei then walked towards Kris.
"Kris I think you should Apologize about the Jagged tooth thing" Ralsei said
Kris then looked towards Ralsei, as Ralsei then gave him pleading eyes.
Kris then sighed.
"HEY SUSIE!" Kris yelled
"WHAT!?" Susi screamed
"I'm...Sorry" Kris said
Susie then looked towards them with a shocked looked
"That you have Jagged Teeth" Kris said
Ralsei was then opened mouth with his eyes bulging
"You Runt...YOUR DEAD!" Susie screamed as she charged towards them with her fist balled ready punch Kris, Kris quickly moved out of the way as he Grabbed her arm and Ralsei grabbed her leg.
"HEY LET GO!" Susi screamed
"TIMES UP!" the Cube announced
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Susie screamed.
