I followed the path as the villager told me, but what he failed to mention was part of the path was blocked off by a large gate. Four guards stood at attention in budder armor, budder swords by their sides.

As I approached, they stared at me wide eyed as if I were someone who had died and had come back to life.

I stood before the gate, just staring. No one said a word for a while.

"Um, may I pass?" I ask trying to sound more confident they I feel.

"Ye-yes Master Seto, go ahead." One of the guards said sounding shocked or frightened. He yelled to the other guards."Open the gates!"

The gates opened revealing a fairly new road on the other side. As I walked through the gates, crossing from the gravel path to the cobblestone road, more guards stared in aw. I didn't know what to say so I kept walking, hoping to reach the Budder Castle soon.

I had recently passed through a large town. The town was filled with people. It was very clean, I guess you could say your ideal kingdom. Many of the townspeople stared as I passed which made me grow uneasy though many of the children gave me flowers and hugged me. Everyone seemed to know who I was except myself.

Now I stood at another gate, this one though, more grand than the last. This one was not made out of iron, it was made of budder. The guards almost seemed to blend in ,if it weren't for their hair it would all look one in the same, some were blonde and there was no telling them from the gate.

As I approached this time, they stood at attention as the last guards did but did not gape at me and stare. Instead they opened the gate and let me pass as if they knew me and I visited often. I didn't ask any questions, afraid they would refuse me access to the castle if I asked why they let me through. Instead I said hi and thanked them.

As I stood on the other side of the gate I looked up and saw a magnificent budder castle tower above me. The Budder Castle. The collumns shimmered as sunlight reflected off. A flag snapped in the wind at the top of every tower. The banners that hung by every window showed a different person on each one. A green one caught my eye, the person on the banner had brown hair, crimson eyes and black and green headphones. The person on the banner was Deadlox himself, well atleast an image of him.

As I neared the tall doors of the castle they slowly swung open revealing guards pulling them open on the other side. I entered and soon stood in a large hall. The doors closed behind me and I was alone. A wave of uneasiness washed over me and I soon became weary that I was being watched. I saw movement out of the corner of my eye and turned to face it but there was nothing there. Again I saw movement and quickly turn to see what caused in. I saw more movement but as I turned to face it, I felt something being pressed against my throat.

A knife. . . . .
