"Please don't tell me that's your brother...I mean, with the attitude and all... I don't know..."Ivy said in disappointment."Wh... What do you mean by that expression?!"Cyril asked almost getting annoyed."Hey, Hey, Hey...I didn't mean to get you mad... I'm just saying, he has a really big..."Ivy said and Jason covered her mouth."Maybe that's enough saying for today."Jason said and Ivy gently took his hands off her mouth."So, Uhm... what's his name or whatever."Ivy asked sarcastically."My name?! My name?! Well, I am Shrictol! King and god of Delijah!"He said with a proud and enraging smile on his face."Oh boy."Ivy said."Shrictol, these are my friends, Jason and Ivy. They helped to protect the flashes of Delijah from an evil man."Cyril said with a nervous smile."Oh... You mean the ones you were telling me about...You never said they were... humans."Shrictol said with a sharp glare in his eyes."Well, they are."Cyril said nervously."Hmmm...Do you think I can believe such a lie?! That weak humans like these could save us?!"He screamed with anger and Cyril couldn't say a word. She was frozen on the spot."Pathetic! I expected better from you."Shrictol added and turned to leave."Hold up! Where do you think you're going?!"Jason called."Excuse me?"Shrictol asked with mockery."Don't ask for any silly excuse, cause you need to learn some manners. You walk in here like a tiny proud chicken, call us weak... and hurt Cyril's feelings... and you wanna leave?!"Ivy asked with anger in her face."Is this a challenge?!"Shrictol asked."Challenge? Well, I don't know?"Ivy said and Jason stepped forward."Yes! It's a challenge!"Jason said competitively."{Chuckles} You think you can defeat me?! Alright, Tomorrow by noon. Three miles away from the Dojo."Shrictol said and the guards picked him up, placed him on the throne and walked away."Guys, you don't have to do this."Cyril said after Shrictol had gone."It's for you Cyril! You're our friend."Ivy said and placed her hand on Cyril's shoulder and it slipped into a warm embrace."So, what we need is training. Lot's and lot's of it."Jason said to Ivy after Cyril had gone."You're right. We can't fight a god with so much power without training."Ivy said and they both went to Quin for training.
"Are you two crazy?! Shrictol is the most powerful being in the whole magical realm. He has eliminated and destroyed a lot of people and universes. Not even Cyril can defeat him. That's why she's terrified of him. One wrong move and he could destroy the entire human realm just with the snap of a finger!"Quin said with fear. They had never seen that look on his face before."Uhm... Is there a way to let's say... forfeit this challenge?"Ivy asked with so much fear."That's why no one challenges Shrictol. If you lose or forfeit, consider yourself dead!"Quin explained."Oh my goodness! I don't wanna die! Quin, you have to train us really well!"Ivy pleaded."Don't worry Ivy, we'll win this together like we always have!"Jason said and placed his hand on her shoulder."Well, if you really wanna win this battle so bad, and you wanna live so much, you have to go through severe training."Quin said."Yeah! We know that. Besides, who wouldn't wanna live?!"Ivy asked rhetorically."Well, meet me tomorrow early in the morning and we'll train hard!"Quin said."But, we're fighting tomorrow by noon!"Jason said."Yeah, and Cyril invited us for some meeting or something."Ivy said."Right, the Qain meeting. Then, give me sometime. Just give me fifteen minutes then come back."Quin said."Oh, ok then. See you in fifteen minutes."Jason said and he and Ivy walked out of the Dojo.
"I'm not really sure if we're really gonna finish the fight alive."Ivy said sadly with her head resting on Jason's shoulders."It's alright. With Quin, we might actually win this battle."Jason said and leaned into Ivy."Alright, time for training."Quin said and came out of the Dojo."Already?! But you said fifteen minutes."Jason said with shock."I did! But, then I realised your life is more important than the game I was playing inside."Quin said."Really? You care about us that much?"Jason asked."Of course not! I just finished."Quin said with a slight frown on his face."What kind of game were you playing anyway?"Jason asked curiously."It wasn't really that much of a game. I'll explain later. For now, let's go train for your battle with King Shrictol."Quin said."Quin? Why did you just add 'King' at the front of his name?"Ivy asked."Have you forgotten? He's the King and god of Delijah. The most powerful being in the whole universe and he controls all the realms including yours! So, it's better you act like a gentle person or he destroys us and the entire world."Quin said."Quin, you're acting really weird."Ivy said."Just follow me so we can start the training."Quin said and entered the dojo while Jason and Ivy followed from behind.
"Now, this may seem boring and all, but if you do as I say, you might actually become the best martial artists in the whole universe."Quin said and sat in a yoga position."Now join me."Quin said and Jason and Ivy did the same."Now, close your eyes and clear your mind. You have to learn to focus on peace and silence. In this method, you are sure to feel in another world or something like that."Quin said and there was complete silence. Quin was right! Everyone could feel a sensation of a new world and new life.
{WHAT JASON SAW!}
It was all in a beautiful new city. He was sitting on a bench outside a pizza store. He relaxed his back against the surprisingly soft bench. He felt like his back was softly compressing the bench... but, it also felt like he was being sucked into the bench. Actually, that was happening! It sucked him hard and it felt like he was pulled in by someone. He was falling into an atmosphere of smoke, steam and mirrors. All his eyes could see were huge clouds of smoke. For some reason, his eyes closed and couldn't open. He was falling into a pit of fire and electric sparks."Ah!"Jason screamed and opened his eyes.
"What's wrong?!"Ivy asked.
