A malevolent fist crashing upon my skull within the grassy plains of the town's local park. As my body lays within the smell of nearby trees and plants, the blades of green crease and bend to the weight of my body with every so other blade cutting and scratching at my uncovered skin. My opponent kneels before my body to whisper a message within my ear "You're too weak for her protection". My consciousness couldn't withstand the pressure of the waking world, so upon its reaction, my eyes and my mind slowly release itself into slumber.

My soul awakens within the dream world, shrouded by darkness, as my vision cease to exist. "You lost to Jacob? How dreadful!" a gallop of maniacal laughter surrounded my ears. I instantly gain the emotion of fear within my head as i sporadically move throughout the void. A stopping force of a hand presses upon my face "Calm down Tyler, don't get yourself killed within your own head... you still have unfinished business within your awakening consciousness" a sudden snap upon his fingers completely changes the blinded scenery to a classic setting of a colorfully blurred walls and floor, to only concentrate upon the two chairs that set apart from each other like a regular dining setting. "Come... take a seat" my body couldn't move as my fear and confusion engulfed my body. "Please... I insist you calm yourself. Besides, what effects you can also affect me" As my fear slowly subsides, my vision and concentration enters focus to look upon what entity has called upon me. It's like looking into a mirror, same face, same scars, same clothes. I walk towards the chair to awkwardly sit upon its cold surface. "Thank you Tyler... now, let's talk about your dire situation" The clone of myself jumped over the head of the chair to land upon the hard end with a grunt within his voice. "Now... I will give you two options. You lay here, cold, unwanted, and unloved. Or... I grant you the strength and power to will yourself out of this grave that has been temporarily set for you" Within mid-sentence he instantly transports himself towards my face, with his hand tightly griped on my chin. "As to reclaim what has been taken away from you" throughout his talking he slowly moves towards my left ear "Your loss will be stained within your soul, as a reminder that you're a worthless piece of flesh that should have never been given life too." A tear formed within my right eye as I yell towards the heavens "SHUT UP!" I grab upon the clones face to push him towards his original chair in front of me. He crashes upon the head edge of the chair to scrap the back of his neck, as he lightly lands on the distorted floor with small droplets of blood that stains the room. From the moment of his impact, the blood upon his injuries appeared on my neck, the same wound to complement the same drops of blood.The clone instantly laughs as he notices the drops of blood upon my neck. "I told you... I told you the moment you try to harm me, then that exact same affliction will appear on your body." I grunt in frustration as I run up to his layed out body to pick him up by his collar as to press him upon disorienting wall. "Fine... i'll go by your deal. Just give me the power to escape this abyss" The clone smiled in cheerful bliss as he raised his arms up to release my grasp from his shirt. "Thank you, thank you, thank you... " He claps in content " Your wish shall be granted, just... try not to kill him." A snap upon his fingers begins to melt around the entirety of this room, as the walls start to leak while the floor begins to cave in. Within his own body, large blisters of blood form to the point of explosion. As the crimson blisters reach the max capacity of expansion, they instantly deflate to a melting viewpoint. The body of my clone is no more, since the only visible scene left was the empty shell of a corpse, laying around to eventually fall within the void. I suddenly feel a powerful force within me, as it's something to be pertained as evil... darkness. The black swarm of mist surround my body as it empowers my energy, my body's motion was laid to rest. I fall upon the void, the same as the flaccid body of the clone. My face couldn't help it, but within the darkness... I smile, the same as my clone "Redemption at last"

The smell of grass suddenly enters my nostrils,as I awaken once more (I am ready) (As I will not lose again) I quickly get upon from the warm ground to swiftly run up behind my unexpecting opponent to clock him behind his head. "Agh!" he lands on his knees while holding his head. I jump over him to appear in front of his unweary face. I smile towards his direction to put both hands upon the back of his head. "Its okay Jacob... I know that it must be hard to taste the misery of the ones you tore down" Within a spite of anger I instinctively ram the bare bone of my knee into the bridge of his nose, cracking and crushing the placement of his so desired breathing tube. The top half of his body flies backward onto the ground as a pool of blood envelops around his wound of defeat. My rage quickly diminishes as my focus drills itself onto what laid of Jacob. "Well he's still breathing, so that good enough" I said to myself. I kneel beside the unconscious body of Jacob to whisper into his left ear "Your tactics in bullying stops here, because if you try to torment anyone again, I won't hesitate in putting you into the hospital again. As for Catherine, dont talk to her ever again" I slowly get up to look upon my surroundings. A tree upon my left, as a couple of plants laid on my right. Not a single soul roamed around this area of field. "At least I won't get in trouble with what just happened today" I gave a slight scoff and smirk to my own comment. "It's time to go home" "yes... we shall journey back home"
