Taicho: looks like I’ve saved the day.
Kenji: Who are you?
Taicho: I am Taicho, the embodiment of battle.
*Akito giggling*
Akito: Sure buddy, it’s definitely possible you’re one of those people that got chosen by a mythical being that’s damn near impossible to get chosen by.
*Akito and Kenji burst out laughing*
*Taicho looking back and forth confused on why they’re laughing*
Taicho: H-Hey! What’s so funny assholes!
*Akito giggling again*
Akito: I-it’s just why would some happy go lucky guy like you be an embodiment?
Taicho: Fine! We can ask my master, he will confirm that I am an embodiment.
Kenji: Now that I think about it this guy being an embodiment is 100% possible, he took down 4 monsters in an instant that even we with our shared efforts couldn’t accomplish.
Akito: I guess that’s true, I’m pretty hungry so let us go meet this “master” of yours.
Akito: Hey Kenji, Lead us to the gate.
Kenji: Uhh now that I think about it… I may or may not have forgotten where the gate is.
Taicho: You what?! you can only have one gate open at a time I couldn’t get us out of here even if I wanted to!
Akito: Listen Kenji we need a way out or we are about to be monster food!
Kenji: Relax! I’ll get us out of here, I can come up with a plan to get back to the living world but if we don’t succeed we will have to survive in here for another 6 months before the portal expires in real world time, but there is an a lot faster way.
Akito: and that is?
Kenji: Getting underworld king Maldona’s permission to leave.
Akito: Who is that and how do we get his permission?
Kenji: Underworld king Maldona is the progenitor of the world of Darkness and creator of everything within it, if we find his castle and somehow sneak in to get an audience with him we can get him to teleport us back to the living world, damn I wish that portal wasn’t a one way.
Taicho: Hahaha! If all we have to do is get past his guardians to get an audience with the king so be it!
Akito: What’s the plan?
Kenji: according to the book that gives me information on the World of darkness there are towns that each guardian is responsible for protecting, no matter how far the guardian is they will always come back if the town is endangered.
Taicho: Ohhh I can follow what you’re saying this plan is amazing!
Kenji: Of course a prodigy like me would come up with such a master plan.
Akito: Ok? Now that we know that how are we going to find one of these towns?
Kenji: Even though the world itself is darkness that won’t always include the town’s inhabiting the world.
Taicho: What do you mean?
Kenji: The people who live in these towns are all people from the living world who have committed crimes no human should ever commit.
Kenji: In other words they are slaves to the underworld king and have to repent for those crimes for eternity and when a prisoner tries to escape a bright light shines brightly in the air.
Akito: Wow this world is just as messed up as them, and that’ll also explain why the guardians always have to come back due to the fact that they’re making sure no prisoners try and escape.
Kenji: Exactly, but depending on how bad the crimes they’ve committed that could potentially leave us with a stronger guardian so we just have to defeat him and beat him bad enough to make him spill where the Castle is.
Akito: I get the idea let us take our last break for a while and drink some water and fill our stomachs with snacks.
*the 3 sit down and regain their energy for the next upcoming battle*
Kenji: So Taicho, what element do you use?
Taicho: Element? Oh no I never had a talent for any of that stuff I just rely on my physical capabilities that have been bestowed upon me by my embodiment.
Akito: These embodiments, do they talk to you? do they have a voice at all?
Taicho: Unfortunately they do not have a voice but it’s more like when you are blessed by an embodiments power it’s like you just know what it expects of you, you know what I mean?
Taicho: I been through a lot I just wish my village were able to see what I’ve become but… “they” took them from me.
*Akito and Kenji watching not knowing what to say*
Kenji: Who’s they? If you don’t mind me asking.
Taicho: This is a very sensitive topic for me so I’ll save this for when we make it out of here alive haha.
Akito: Sure!
Kenji: Let us set forth straight forward the farther you head out the stronger then monsters so there should be a town under protection somewhere nearby.
*Kenji, Akito and Taicho wonder about for 2 hours before reaching a town*
*Akito sees a colorful town that can easily be noticed among the darkness of the world*
Akito: Guys I found a town!
Kenji: Wha?!
Taicho: Alright!
*the 3 walk into the town to converse with the citizens of the village*
*Kenji talking to a prisoner*
Kenji: Hey, if you tell me where your guardian is I’ll help you escape from this hell hole.
Prisoner: Huh? Why the hell would I trust a random like you?!
Akito: Oh? You’ve probably been in here for 100s of years and I know you’re wondering how much the earths changed since you’ve been brought here.
Prisoner: Hmm you’ve kinda got a point I’ve been 26 years old for 319 years since time doesn’t pass here I still got a chance at life!
Akito: did I also mention that the women in this day and age have way bigger butts too?
Prisoner: *Gulp*
Akito: Yeah sounds intriguing huh?
*prisoner looks left and right*
Prisoner: look we’ve got a deal I can be your man with the plan but on one condition.
Kenji: what’s that condition?
Prisoner: I want all of my fellow prisoners in this town to be set free we were all wrongfully convicted of m*********r and have been declared unworthy to live amongst the rest by the king of the underworld and this is our only chance at redemption.
Kenji: Sure, we can accept that.
Prisoner: The names Ronaldo, Ronaldo White nice to meet ya.
Kenji: The names Kenji and the one with the short brown hair is Taicho and the one with longer black hair is Akito.
Akito: Sup.
Taicho: Yo
Ronaldo: I don’t wanna believe 3 strangers are my only hope for success but I’m not giving up this chance.
*Ronaldo runs to his fellow prisoners and creates a plan to get the guardian to come back*
*Ronaldo comes back with his fellow prisoners*
Ronaldo: We got you covered but the rest is up to you guys I will hide all of you somewhere safe for you to attack at the right time but beware this one isn’t any beast you’ve fought before.
Taicho: Do you mind giving us a description of this towns guardian?
Ronaldo: He stands at about 9 feet and has a very muscular build and it’s also been said he has the head, tail and legs of a bull but the body of a man.
*Kenji in his head*
Kenji: a Minotaur! I thought those were myths!
Kenji: thanks for the heads up Ronaldo I believe in your plan.
Ronaldo: Haha you better believe it, now hurry and hide!
*the prisoners build a catapult that is capable of holding a large boulder from scratch in an attempt to damage any of the buildings to trigger the alarm*
*the prisoners put the boulder on the catapult*
Ronaldo: On 3! 1,2,3! Fire!
*the giant boulder breaks through the glass of a building and sets off the light beam alarm*
*Kenji in his hiding place with the others talking in his mind*
Kenji: The alarm has went off and it’s been 5 minutes where is the guardian?
*a few seconds later*
*The ground shaking*
*Large stomps get closer and closer till they get super loud and then stop*
Mino: who awakened me with all this racket?!
Info: “Mino” is the Minotaur if you didn’t notice.
*all prisoners point at Ronaldo*
Ronaldo: G-Guys?!
Mino: You!
*Mino pulls out a giant club*
Mino: The king has given you another chance at life to repent for your crimes and you try to escape?!
Mino: Unforgivable!
*Mino instantly swings his club*
Kenji: No way!
*A giant dust cloud appears from the impact of the swing*
*Taicho with a really angry look on his face*
Mino: !!
Taicho: Hey, how about you pick on someone your own strength, I can sense it on you.
Mino: What nonsense are you spouting human?!
Taicho: You have to die, you have the aura of “THEM”!
