“If you aren’t the devil then you must be the god of death.” I assume.
“The? There’s more than one god of death and I’m not one of them.” She exclaims.
I look at her and continue to think. I look at the girl as she floats towards the front of me. I draw a complete blank on what she can be. She portrays evil for fun but actually looks innocent. I can’t figure out what she is.
“How about we make a deal?” She asks. She must have noticed that I have not one clue of what she is.
“What is it?” I respond reluctantly.
“If you collect all the powers OR can manage to get them all in one place then I’ll tell you what I am. But If you can’t, you’ll either have to figure it out yourself or go on for eternity wondering who I am.”
I pause to think whether this was a great idea or not.
“If you are going to follow me, I might as well agree to the wager. I’m in. Do I have any time limit?”
She looks at me. “You have all the time in the world to figure it out.”
I shrug “Okay.”
She sticks her hand out for a handshake. I reach out and grab her hand. As she shakes my hand I ask “So who is this person I need to kill?” Once I finish the question she fades away and I’m pulled out the void.
“CULLIN!!” Everyone yells as I’m pulled completely out.
Lily hugs me while Spark and Konan run and tackle me. Sly gets up and walks away.
“What’s wrong with Sly?” I ask concerned.
“We thought we lost you. You been in there for three days.” Lily explains.
I glance at her. “It felt like it was only 30 minutes.”
“We pulled Spark out within 30 minutes. You on the other hand were there a lot longer.”
“Wait this makes no sense. SPARK was only away from me for 5-” I rub my hand against my face and notice I now have a beard and mustache. I never had a full blown beard or mustache before. I jump up and look around. We’re at the entrance of a cave. I look at Lily.
“Okay there are way too many unanswered questions. The amount of time i was in there, you guys were out here, and my body went through are nowhere close to the same. Any explanations?”
