---Abby's POV---
I finally made it to the other side of the Forest of Nightmares. According to the map, whoever knew the answer to X's defeat lays in the ruins just outside of the forest. I walked down a path that hasn't been touched in a while. I found myself in front of the ruins of a building.

"Hello?" Someone asked behind me. "Did you come from the forest?" I turned around to see a man, dark skinned, very tall, with one eye green, one eye blue.

"Yes I did." I replied. "Are you the one who knows how to kill off demons for good?"

"The one you are looking for is an ancient spirit." The man said. "I am not Idizo."

"Ojibway?" I asked.

"You speak it?" The man asked.

"A little." I stated. "Miigwech happens to be the only word I can say."

"Oh." The man said. "I am Jessie by the way."

"Abby." I stated. "Where can I find Idizo?"

"In the Ruins of Soñador." Jessie said.

"Isn't that the name of a horse from a movie?" I asked.

"It was once a place where people from all over fought demons." Jessie replied. "Unfortunately, it fell before it had a chance to rise. This was five years ago now."

"Did this happen before Morpheus?" I asked.

"Yes." A woman's voice behind me said. I turned to see a tiny woman, who looked like she was blind.

"Are you the one who knows....?" I started asking.

"I am the one who knows how to kill off demons." The woman stated. "I may be blind, but I sense you came for me."

"Yes." I said. "How do I kill off X?"

"Hades knows." Idizo said. "He created that demon by mistake. The one you call X was supposed to guard the underworld from any souls that commit suicide. However, X decided that suicide was a good thing and went across the planet to cause many suicides. Hades and Zeus were angered. They tried to stop him, but he had already caused damage. They could only hide the demon from humans. Those who know about X and his offspring, which spreads across the world, end up killing themselves."

"Okay," I said. "I know about him and I am alive. Becca knows about him and she is also alive."

"The one you call Becca," Idizo stated. "She runs Morpheus. Zeus himself has chosen her."

"Zeus?" I asked. "Isn't he part of Greek mythology?"

"That is what he wants humans to believe now." Idizo said. "However, he is as real as the sun and moon."

"How do I get to Hades?" I asked. I was desperate to get rid of X.

"The harvest moon has to rise for you to enter the underworld." Idizo said.

"That isn't for another 6 months." I stated.

"Hopefully your demon doesn't kill the woman you admire." Idizo said.

"Admire as an idol?" I asked.

"Admire as a friend." Idizo stated. I looked at the blind woman in confusion. I gave her a bow and walked off.

---Third Person---
Meanwhile, back at Morpheus, Jacksepticeye walked to the area of the layers where X was kept. Jack pressed the call button on the key pad.

"I lost my key card." Jack said. "Can you let me in?"

"Sure Jack." The voice on the other end said. The door unlocked and Jack strolled in. The thing is that it wasn't Jack. It was Anti. Anti walked up to X's cell and gave a sinister smile.
