The Dream

Y/n's POV

'this is.. more pitch black silence than normal.?'

I've been walking around a void for what felt like forever. It reminded me of when I was in a coma.

What confused me, was that it wasn't a normal dream. Normally, if I sleep and the night is just black, I don't have any dreams. At least none that I can remember. When it's black, I just fall asleep and wake up.

But this.. I'm actively walking through a void, the space under my feet briefly glowing with each and every step.

It's almost like I'm meditating, but I'm not. I know I'm asleep.

'hm.. if that's the case though, then maybe I can control the dream. Maybe I can talk to my ancestor. Or maybe... I could talk to one of them..? Would bringing their spirits into my head with my magic even work?'

I stopped walking as the thought crossed my mind, only to finally hear something other than myself.

"That'd be awesome, but It wouldn't work y/n. Only, that's because we're already here. At least partially."

I lightly gasped as I heard the unexpected voice, and quickly looked around, not seeing anyone.

"Sensei? Wha- where are you?!" I called out, desperately looking around into the endless void of my subconscious.

"Y/n, I am both nowhere and everywhere. I wish I could've visited you more in the past, but I had no idea where you had gone to, even after I died. I thought you were.. I eventually had to give up on searching because of my life span, though I always regretted it."

I saw a faint orange glow from behind and whipped my head around, finally seeing my master standing only a few yards away.

I stared in absolute shock, while Michelangelo simply smiled back as he looked me up and down. "Leo was right, You really have grown up." He began to hold his arms out, and I didn't waste a second before rushing over and jumping into them.

Michelangelo happily returned my tight embrace. "I-i missed you, sensei.." I just cried, unable to hold back my emotions.

Michelangelo chuckled and patted my head. "now, what did i say about those formal titles? Call me whatever you like kid, you're not subjected to calling me that all your life. I've missed you too." I pulled away from him just enough to look up at his face.

"But, why would I call you anything else? I'm still not done training with my abilities, and Draxum is definitely not deserving of hearing that title from me. Only you are." A sad smile formed on my face, making Michelangelo laugh.

He pulled me away and held me by the shoulders. "And why isn't he deserving of being called a sensei?" He curiously asked.

"Because he's too pushy and bossy! He makes Mikey go too far and makes his markings hurt, he pushed me far enough to make that portal that kept master Leonardo from seeing you guys again for weeks, and he isn't as fun as you are." I easily ranted about Draxum, acting like a kid as I complained.
