Lord x

chapter 6

My quills darkened and faded, my skin saturated in color, and my feet grew far  too large for any old show. My size also grew thanks to my constant feeding habits, but it benefited be more than it hindered me.

What I didn't know was my powers were also weakening, but it was in very small increments. This small detail would end up being my downfall.

It was like any other day in Horror hills ... I was walking through my zone, admiring my work- when I felt  the presence of a new entity enter my world. I could sense this being's power from  miles away.

Who dares enter my world and insult me with their presence that rivaled my own?

When I went to investigate, I saw a blue hedgehog with blackened eyes and red pupils. Was this a creature similar to myself?

Whatever the case, I didn't want him here. This is MY world, not their to take.

I would come to know this intruder as Xenophanes, and he is known to humans as Sonic.exe.

He goes about to different instances of Sonic worlds and torments their inhabitants- leaving nothing but a wake of destruction behind himself. The world's he ravenges are nothing but wastelands.

He intended to do the same  with mine. I, however, would not stand for it.

He intended to do the same  with mine. I, however, would not stand for it.  It was only when his crystals grew out of his spines did  he  manage to beat me.

He gave me a X scar which I am so well known for. He would continue to brag about that scar for  the rest of the time I knew him and its presence will hang over my head to this very day.

Before he killed me off, I begged and pleaded  to be spared. I offered my entire zone in order for him to spare  my life. Surprisingly, he did. He made a show of his domination, destroying everything I had made right before my eyes.

My temple was blown  to smithereens, my plants were uprooted,  and littered all over the zones and  anything I  wanted to keep had to be stored underground where  he couldn't find them. I lost nearly everything I  ever done to Xenophanes alone.

All I had left was a small patch of Horror hills- which is a pittance compared to what I had previously had.

But Xenophanes wasn't finished. He made my world into his own, calling it the Dead Zone.
