It's been forever since I was here last. But in a way I never left. I am in a forest, around me the sounds of battle die away and in my blurry hands I hold a glimmering gold object - the sVo Hardcore Championship. The goal of my quest. And here I hold it. I stand and slowly glide through the forest - as I reach its edge, I see the outcome of the battle. Around me cluster what remain of the army dressed in camouflage resembling the night sky. They cheer as I emerge - gathering up the surviving soldiers of the three other armies. As I survey my triumph, the soldier who pointed me into the forest appears to my right. Although his features are unrecognizable, I definitely see a victorious smile etched in there. "Congratulations, general. I knew you could do it," he says, bowing low. I return his bow before he continues, "we must leave now though. You have a long way to go..." Before I can ask him where it is I should be going I realize I am riding a horse. At first it appears black - but on closer inspection it too resembles the night sky. Out of the corner of my eye I catch sight of a shooting star running along the line of its mane - which trails several feet behind the horse's neck. It is not made of hair, but rather like remnants of sky trailing behind the horse lazily. It is night time and we ride along a rough dirt path, surrounded by bamboo forest. Above me the stars shine brightly and upon looking around me I see that I am flanked by five riders, all samurai and all armored in sky also. My vanguard. Suddenly it is as if a part of me has left my body and watches from a distance. The part of me that remains in my body does not seem to be able to act of its own will... I watch in amazement as several police cars pull out of nowhere, blocking the path - my guards literally vanish and I am arrested and taken into custody - still in my armor. For some reason, I have a sword and the police officers stare at it with un-seeable expressions, but leave it with me all the same. The police car door slams shut. I blink from the shock of the loudness of the sound and when I open my eyes, I am in jail. The sensation of imprisonment washes over me and I stand, shaking at the bars with my hands. They don't budge. Out of desperation I draw my sword and slash at the bars - but no matter how hard I try I can't seem to even make contact with them. "You'll never get out that way." I turn, shocked to hear another voice within the cell. I find before me a man in a canary yellow suit of armor with red trimmings. He wields a sheathed sword, a European looking long-sword. "We have to work together," he adds. I nod in agreement as he continues, "the guards are coming - prepare to draw your sword." My heart races in my chest. I go to sheath my sword to catch the guards unaware, but realize it is somehow sheathed. Before I know it, two knights are standing at the cell door - one in black armor with an executioner mask looking helmet, one in bluish grey armor - a strip of gold across his waist similar to the one I notice across my own. "Night!" I turn, shocked to hear my name - the knight in yellow draws his sword and lunges at the night in grey. The two guards draw their swords, which appear to be made of neon glowing metal. The black knight draws his massive broadsword and slashes downwards at my head - without realizing I do it, I draw my own katana from my side and block him. Out of my peripherals I see the yellow knight and the grey night fighting. My fellow prisoner knocks his guard to the ground and calls for me to follow him. I kick the black knight backwards and he stumbles as I sprint for the door. Suddenly I spot a glint of gold and my vision is blurred as it collides with my face. Through dazed eyes I see a figure stand over me as my ally returns to the fray and pulls me through the door. As soon as we breach the cell door I find myself alone, outside again in the forest. My guard have all somehow reappeared and one is unmounted, leading two horses. He hands the reins of one to me and I hop on its back and instantly we are off again. We ride in silence through the bamboo forest until suddenly the sky turns somehow darker - more menacing. The ethereal horses neigh hauntingly, obviously somehow unsettled. The guard to my right rides up next to me. "We are being followed," he says and I can not ignore the serious tone in his voice. "By who?" comes my obvious reply. "One of the guards," he answers me, "he seeks to challenge you." "For what?" I ask. But I receive my answer as my mouth hangs open with awe - before us stands a massive Japanese fortress, seeming to be completely constructed of the night sky. As I enter my fortress, I suddenly find myself in my hotel room at Goodfellas Casino... it's been a huge day... or week... or month - I can't tell. I stumble to the bed and fall asleep almost instantly... ... but wasn't I dreaming? |
