We walked down the street and went to a building with a giant door. As we entered the door began to lift up, similar to a garage door that lifts up to open. We walked inside and saw crates of fuel and lots of machine parts everywhere. This placed must have been a repair shop at one point which is why they need that enormous door outside to let large vehicles in. But this was was rundown and old, I don't think anyone had been here in a long time. We kept walking until we saw a tall muscular man in a leather jacket standing outside a door. "We're here to see Brutus," Fara said. He looked at us for a moment then let us inside. The room was an old office that most likely used to be the owners of this old repair shop. There were pictures on the wall of families and a photo of a lake. The photo of the lake looked also showed a small dock, it so familiar I felt like I had seen before but I just could not remember. Sitting at the old desk was a man with navy blue hair. "Hello there, my name is Brutus Minx, and you are?" he said as he stacked some old papers in a pile. "Wait, you didn't know we were coming?" Fara asked. "No, no didn't, if you talked to a man named William well he's the one who sets up these appointments with people, now can you explain why you are here?" Brutus asked. "Well, I'm Fara and this is Atlas and we're told that you have the fuel we can have if we beat you in a game of Hukle," Fara replied. "Hukle eh? well sorry to say this, but we have now Hukle game set here, nor do I understand why the hell William even brought it up to you that we did," Brutus said with a face of concern. "So then what's that supposed to mean?" Fara asked. Before Brutus responded we heard the door lock. "What the hell is this! am I getting doubled crossed!?" Brutus shouted while trying to open the door. Then we saw green smoke begin to fill the room and soon we had passed out. As I was unconscious I saw something. I saw a bug like the one that bit me. It flew around a glowing red decagram. I walked up to it and gently touched it. Once I did, it shocked me and made me fall to my knees. After this everything began to shake and tremble. I looked at my left hand which had touched it. There was a decagram that had been burnt into the palm of my hand. I heard a man screaming and I heard a deep echoing voice say: "Now, power be given to you, you of the future generations".
I then woke up and looked around. I was in a prison cell. I stood up and saw Fara was in a cell across from me, and in the cell next to her was Brutus. "Fara, where are we?" I asked holding onto the bars of the cell door. "It's Alpha Advancements, that William guy who was that big dude at the door when we were at Brutus' place, he set us up because he saw that there was a reward on who could find you, so he saw us and turned us in," Fara replied, she was sitting on the floor of her cell. The cells were very small and tight, not a lot of room to move around in. I remembered my vision and looked at my hand, the decagram was there, burnt into my skin. "What on earth is this thing?" I asked myself. I felt something in my jacket, it was the book my father gave me. I got it out and looked at it. It was an old leather-bound book with the decagram on it. I opened it and flipped through the pages. I saw lots of words highlighted and lots of old papers that had been stuck in pages and lots of notes written on pages. "Wow, he really did a lot of research on it," I thought as I kept looking through the pages. I kept looking through it until I saw a page that read "Decagram and it's meaning" I began to read it and this is what was on it:
The decagram is a star that has ten points on it. The ten represents the number of days The One suffered to his transformation from Human to an immortal entity. He was trapped in a deep cave that he was exploring with explorers. They were all killed when the cave collapsed but he managed to survive. While he crawled through the caves in the dark he found his way to the center of his whole world called Earth which is dimension number 66. He was found by beings who lived there that would save him but he could not be healed because of his injuries. They were not going to save him until the elder of their community said that she saw great power in him, that he could make a good change to existence. So the only way they could is to send him through an ancient process of their people. Turning him into a being known as a Distor. A guardian like being in their ancient culture that had great powers that used to protect their people. So he was sent through the process which he was locked in a dark room for ten days while his body and mind were shifted and a decagram burnt into his hands and on his cheeks. He transformed into what we know now as The One.
