***Rev
" Guys I have a plan I need to talk to you two about." I say to Kendra and Reznakov.
They direct their attention to me. " I want to do more than unite the Borolin and Doom families. I want to unite all 6." I say. Reznakov bursts out laughing.
" Oh You're serious. Rev the 6 families haven't been on good terms in years. They all have separate gods backing them. So first you would have to get all of them to agree to this. Then you would have to get all of them to agree on one god. Then you would have to get that god to agree." Reznakov says.
" I can easily unite the Borolin and Doom families. To them might makes right. Plus with the god situation well I already have a plan for that. I'm gonna be the god." I say.
Both Kendra and Reznakov give me crazed looks. " Rev I understand you became a Demi god. However there is a huge difference between a Demi god and a God." Kendra says.
" I spoke to your father about this. He says all I need is prayers. People who want me to exist. I have to become someone who stays in the memories of everyone. Someone who is prayed to. " I say.
" That won't be easy. You'll have to become a symbol of something." Reznakov says.
" I'll be a symbol of peace. A symbol that's brings safety and protection. I already started because of the white mask. I won't hide behind the mask anymore. I'll bring peace to the world." I say.
*** 5 days later NoTe
" Have the four horseman found Wukong yet?" Joker asks.
" No they haven't. Buddha hid him well." I say.
" Weren't you technically the last one to see Wukong though. I mean based off the story you told Baek. You were essentially the last one to see Wukong since he protected Baek's mom. While she walked to the orphanage." Joker says.
" 4 horseman returns to the forgotten I've found Wukong." I say. Man why didn't I think of that before. That's why Wukong said I knew exactly where he was at. When he said that he wasn't talking to Baek he was talking to me.
I drag Joker and Jackie with me into the shadows. We pop out in front of the orphanage.
"Damn I hate this place." I say to them.
" What is it?" Joker asks
" This is an orphanage. However a mile away from it is a building. If you walk past it you wouldn't notice it because their is a barrier. That's where me and my younger brother trained." I say. While leading them to it.
" Joker you don't have to come In here if you don't want to. " I say.
" Okay I'll stand guard. I don't think I want to be trained by Wukong yet anyways." Joker says.
" Wait where's the other guy? The black one with white short hair." Jackie asks. Oh yeah I forgot to explain to her.
" That's my other little brother let's just say he's sleeping right now. He'll be back out for his rematch soon." I say.
I open the door to the factory that I trained in. There's still effects from our last battle. Which means no one has been here. I lead them down to the place where I found out about the forgotten.
" I can't see anything down there. Even with mana amp. " Joker says.
" Yeah that's the point." I say while separating the shadows. I direct Jackie to place her hands on the wall.
" Separate the atoms. Just do it one at a time at first. Then allow your mana to connect with the rest." I say.
" I'm trying!" She says with a strained voice. Clearly struggling.
" Just think of it the same as ice. Same way you slow the atoms down to freeze them. Hold them in place. Just push them apart and separate them. " I say
She finally starts to get it and a hole starts to open in the wall. I feel an immense mana wave burst through it pushes Joker off his feet.
" Protect yourself." I say. A booming voice comes from the hole. " What took you so long Baek?!" Wukong says.
" How can he recognize you?" Joker asks.
" Wukong's current strength transcends space and time. He can send his past memories to his future self." I say
" Why did he call you Baek? I thought your name was NoTe." Jackie says.
" My name is NoTe. We'll explain in a second." I say.
"You're not Baek. Where is my student?" Wukong says from behind me. I try turning around to react.
Wait why am I in the sky? Wasn't I just in the factory. Joker and Jackie are two miles away.
" I understand now. Bring Baek out it's time for his first lesson." Wukong says while punching me. Before I hit the ground Wukong is already sitting there. How is he so fast.
" Baek come out right now!" Wukong yells with a booming voice. The ground splits from how loud his voice is.
***Baek
" NoTe is being attacked." War says.
"Yeah I don't know who he's fighting but it feels like he's losing." I say. I feel a sudden immense pain in my head. I get lifted in the air like I'm being dragged by something.
I'm suddenly outside. Where am I?
" Baek kneel." A voice says from behind me. My body immediately drops to one knee. I can't control it.
" How are you controlling me?" I ask.
" Did you forget you're part demon? I know your real name. That gives me control over you. " Wukong says.
" Don't worry they have to know you're part demon and be stronger than you. To use your name against you." NoTe says.
" So is that how he forced us to switch." I say.
" Baek why weren't you here to greet your teacher?" Wukong asks.
" I was training in the world of the forgotten. Trying to find my purpose." I say.
" How long were you there?" Wukong asks
" A couple years." I say.
" Specfiy your age. Not the age of your body but your mental age. " Wukong says.
" I'm 16 now." I say.
