Mark X Dark....ish Ch.12

Mark's POV:

   It's been three years since Mark had won the tournament. I've gotten along with Dark much better now. I learned he lived a life so similar yet completely different. It was like we lived the same life but I got the good one and he got the bad one. I felt bad. 

    My special training with Satan ended 5 months ago. Now I have to train myself. Every year a tournament is held to improve hell's army. The army is split into three groups. I'm in charge of one of them. Lucifer and Dark are ordering the others. Dark was originally not supposed to be in charge of an army. Though I made sure he was. Dark is one of Satan's best,  but they do not get along well.

   The few times We get free time, we usually play video games or go to some of the hell restaurants. The demon section of hell is actually pretty nice. Satan makes sure his warriors are well cared for so there is no excuse for a poor display. Satan has a plan to take control of the three continents. One at a time. The plan was to make me come up with the plan. Now he has everyone understand and prepare. I keep telling him we can take all the islands down at once with my plan, but he said he won't take any chances. He learned from a past mistake. That's all he will tell me.

   So now we will head to the continent called Gyla. I don't remember which continent my friends are on. Next we'll head for the continent, pokata. Finally, Samoto. The continents have moved from what they once were. Like what happened with Pangaea. Some of the orignial states still exist, while others have changed. territory looks different too, so there are less states today.

   Right now I have to train my army. We will be attacking in one week. I would train them as hard as possible then the last two days I will allow them to rest so they will have full energy at the battle. When I told Dark why I was doing this he decided to do it too. Lucifer was just going to train train train. I tried to explain why that was bad but he didn't listen. His army was miserable while ours were happy and respected us greatly. I made training seem like games. We did each drill twice whoever won the first drill got to skip out on the nest one. unless it's the second go around.

   For example, to work on stamina and speed: we will do a twenty mile race. Then fifteen minute break. Everyone who was second and below have to do another twenty. I join them in all of the exercises. I don't count as a participant otherwise no from my army would be able to win. 

   Today's work is completed, so me and Dark decided to go visit the surface before the war. We have to take Lucifer with us because he has stronger magic and a bigger variety. I learned a few more tricks that don't use fire.(AN:I'm not going to tell you what they are yet.) when we all got the castle, we started to travel to the surface. I tried no to explode when I discover how we were supposed to get up.

   "IT'S AN ELEVATOR!" I tried anyway. Lucifer laughed his deep horse laugh. "yah. It is" I looked at him and said "And i got here through a hole." "So, we were riding a dragon!" "I guess you have a point there." When we reached the top I expected the sun to hurt my eyes but it seemed to make them stronger. That was an excellent bodily response. So my plan should work. Putting work aside , we all walked through using magic to hide our devil features. I had grown a tail and horns living in Hell, but now that I'm on the surface I didn't need magic to hid them. They just disappeared on their own as soon as I got on the hot sand of the New Mexican dessert. 

   We walked around the towns and explored using all of the time we had. Which isn't much. Then I saw an abandoned truck. Underneath the truck was something that tore my heart in two.
