He didn't know what or how he got there.Malfecious probably teleported him with some high tech stuff or maybe pure magic but whatever it was it sucked. All Ace saw was darkness. He stood in a dark room with  high walls. His eyes adjusted and finally He could see. The room was filled with traps and riddles which He had to take care of in order to get the ring.
He had nothing on, No gear, No sword. He started walking suddenly he tripped on something which looked like a long blade with mist swirling around it. He picked it up, The sword perfectly balanced in his right hand. He found some armor which was incredibly light but strong and a shield. He put it on and then looked forwards. Stood before him were a long lane of spikes which had small gaps in them. It looked impossible to cross. They were tall and did not look nice To touch. He sat there for a long time thinking what he could do. He got an idea which he carried out. He put his shield down and slid it across the spikes with him on top of it.
It went really well, but then the twist came, As the spikes were ending, it was becoming brighter and brighter and soon He saw himself falling into the deep pit. He didn't know what to do. He screamed as He fell.

He didn't know what happened next. He grabbed on to a piece of rock, which was incredibly pointy and sharp but he took the risk. As his hand touched the rock He flew upwards-even though he didn't have wings, And landed on the other side of the pit. He guessed that some God didn't want him to die. He then looked at his next challenge..

He saw millions of souls crying and wincing with pain. He knew they were bad and evil but He still felt that forlorn feeling inside him. It was the most difficult thing to ignore but he tried to walk past them.. "It is a test" He told himself. He was ignoring them but He Felt like crying.

He was almost out when He heard his mom's scream. He had the unresistable urge to look back. But Ace knew it was a trick. He seriously wanted some adventure in his life so He resisted it.. He was about to take his last step out. He heard another scream and then another. He still didn't look back. His ears wincing with pain he got out. Ace was relived. He fell down on the cold floor. Suddenly He saw light. He thought that it should have been his last challenge but there was more. He ran towards the light. But just then He realised he had entered a battle arena. The place had large walls and towers all made with cobblestone. Everything looked polish. He saw an audience of about 2000 people just sitting there and groaning. Each one  had that weird skyrim hat with horns and all. Ace took out his sword, Ready for anything.

"You have done well, Hero..." Maleficious said who just popped out of thin air with the same purplish light. Ace was now starting to think that if He had gone crazy or the Gods were messing with him." The last challenge that will prove you are the capable  or not.. Behold! The Beast of darkness!A Large Grey Hound Popped out of nowhere and leaped on Ace. Who cleverly dodged and then Sprinted towards the Hound. He slid under the legs of the Hound,hacked its tails to pieces,And then started to run away. He pointed his sword towards The Hound and said,"Lets finish this" He then started to run towards Death and threw his sword where the sun didn't shine. Black and white light formed a circle around it and then the Hound disintegrated.  The hound had managed to get a few scratches on Ace's body but otherwise He was fine. Then suddenly red light started forming around him and his back started to throb with pain. A red substance was starting to emerge out of his body. Soon it stopped and Then Ace felt as if He could control another part of His body.  His back burnt like Fire. He got close to the nearest mirror. And then in a horrified expression He yelled to Maleficious," What the **** Have you Done?!"

"Don't worry Ace.. You have earned it.. Wings to  fly... And the entry pass for Orbis"
"OK what do I have to do..and where is the ring"
" Have Patience my Child.. you will get the ring..but first here is what u do.."
He dropped a pience of paper on the ground and then Vanished.
"Hey-" Ace stopped himself. "Have patience"  Maleficious had said. He grabbed the paper. It said "Save us Hero" and on the top right corner it said "Burn to enter Orbis"
Ace started a fire using some pieces of wood which were lying around, chillaxing.
He threw the paper into the fire and then a portal swallowed him in.

Ace fainted during the process and He started to have weird dreams where Maleficious yelled "BEWARE! BEWARE OF THE GOVERNMENT.  HELP US... WE NEED YOU ACE.."
Then He got slightly different dreams where Maleficious told him where the ring of orbis was" He soon waked up and realised that he was on soft grass. He stood up straight. He tried to look but his vision was blurry and His eyes couldn't handle the light. Soon the pain subsided and he could look. "Nëna i shenjtë i Perëndisë " He whispered to himself. He saw a beautifully lined terrain and a city nearby. He saw many trees and the sun shined red. The sky was still the same but I guess the sun answered to its people expression. He knew that already because He knew what was going on in there. Something that He had to solve. He advanced towards the city with the huge building which said Future. He was almost in the city when he tripped over a small box. He had forgotten about the ring. He opened it up and wore the ring on his ring finger. It seemed powerful. I drained in its energy. I suddenly felt wiser, Stronger and more.. Magical.
I felt that I could summon anything.  He said "Hoverboard". There was a sudden flash and an actual board that Hovered was infront of him. He felt happier too. And not bored. He still had a few miles to cover- Which was his definition of FEW. He got on the board and zoomed in towards the city. He described it in some words. "Cloud eating Elfs"  Great.. the only thing missing in my life. He Thought.
