Me and Sly arrived at our destination in front of us there was a bench and a pole with a bell on it. Sly then walked up to the bell and rung it I then heard the sound of running. 'Hmm, will it be the same Stag from the game?' I thought.
The Stag Stations were a form of transportation in the game the other being the Tram stations. The Stag Stations are connected to every major place in Hollownest they were a good source of transportation.
I then watched as a giant blue shelled beetle ran into the room and abruptly stopped the Stag then looked at us and said.
Stag: "Sly? It's been a while since I've seen you. What have you been doing all this time?"
Sly: "Just doing missions from the Pale King."
Stag: "The Pale King!? How they grow so fast I still remember when you were a small bug curious about the world."
Sly: "Oh meet my disciple his name is Excursion."
Stag: "Hmm he's small like you... So are all of your disciples going to be the same size as you?"
Sly held his chest as an arrow pierced through it. I looked at the Stag and it looked at me it stared at me and said.
Stag: "You are lucky Sly probably wouldn't choose anyone as his disciple if he didn't meet you. Now all that matters is if you can handle his training."
Excursion: "No need to be so serious."
Sly: "Before we go I need you to go to a shop down the street. Find some nail sharpeners so our nails don't go dull. Here is the money."
Sly handed me a sack full of geo I held the heavy sack in my hands and then left the Stag Station. 'Damn am I some sort of errand-boy now? Welp at least this is the last thing we need before we start training.' I thought as I kicked away some trash.
My cloak was already soaked I walked down the street. Still cautious of the Soul Master and his goons I then had to cover my eyes as a blinding light hit them.
Excursion: "Damn!! Did the sun come down to Hollownest!?"
I then opened my eyes slowly I then saw a crowd of civilians surrounding one area. 'Hmm, what's happening over there? And where did that light go?' I thought as I approached the crowd curiously.
I then watched as the crowd opened up for some reason. But then I found out the reason when the PALE KING himself looked down on me.
His brilliant light shone with unmatched beauty even the stars would be in awe by the light. He stared at me with an emotion that could only be described as a disappointment.
Why was he disappointed? I don't know I haven't even seen him before. I looked at him in the eyes as a massive amount of pressure come over me. 'What the hell is happening!?' I thought panicked.
I was forced on my knees as the Pale King looked at me. I looked at the crowd and saw that they were in an almost hypnotic state they stared at the Pale King with worship and awe in their eyes. I looked down and saw a tiny head peek out of my chest shyly it was Gello it looked around confused.
'Damn it... I don't know if this will work but... Can you hear me Gello?' I thought as Gello looked at me. 'I'm in a sticky situation right now. I don't know what the Pale King will do to me but it definitely isn't going to be good. If I die you will also die so can you help me out?' I thought as Gello looked at the Pale King.
Gello then went back into my chest and came out with full force. Launching me up into the sky Gello's head was bleeding a little due to it being launched out with a lot of force. It went back into my chest as I looked down just to see how far I was from the ground.
I then used my nail on one of the walls beside me I stabbed the nail into the wall and my descent slowed down significantly. I then like a wall climber went down slowly I then reached the ground and looked at the Pale King who was standing in front of a white carriage that almost glowed.
Pale King: "This is troublesome... You are much stronger than your brothers. You even possess an ability that I have never seen... You truly are troublesome."
The Pale King said as he approached me then from behind him two giant Kingsmould came in front and also began to approach me albeit much faster than the Pale King.
The more the Pale King got closer the more pressure I was feeling. I was not going to let him get close to me I also couldn't fight him because the instant I get near him I will be put down by the pressure.
The only choice was to run away. 'Well, I guess there will be no nail sharpeners for us.' I thought as I skedaddled out of there like a certain Joestar.
I ran at high speeds the Kingsmoulds were about to chase me but the Pale King said something to them that made them stop and return to the carriage. The Pale King looked at me and then returned to the carriage as well.
I ran to the Stag Station and when I finally made it there I took a deep breath. Sly looked at me curiously and then said.
Sly: "Why are you out of breath? Did something happen?"
Excursion: "N-nothing happened. There weren't any nail sharpeners and I wanted to come back quickly."
Sly looked at me and then shrugged he then got on the Stags back and said.
Sly: "Come on we got to go."
I then went on the Stags back I sat down and then watched as the Stag turned around. He then began to run and the sharp air hit my face. I then looked forward still thinking about the Pale King.
