I dreamed many dreams of myself as a male despite where I am. I dreamed of myself as a male walked on the desert sands his feet wearing gonoid skin boots with robes covering him from head to foot. I found myself posing as the male as referred but unsure of the name. I paused from my walk to exhale a breath staring at the desert sands while feeling the wind blowing softly. I saw a rocky wall ahead of me which I continued walking towards it as if compelled. I frowned as I felt a burning sensation on the bottoms of my feet looked down to stare at the ground. I felt a hotness feeling which made me yank off my robes baring my form showing me wearing pants with no top revealing my muscular physique. Groaning I tossed aside the robes as the feeling began to dominate me as I walked. I felt my feet burning and looked down with dizzy eyes to see smoke of an eater on the ground where my feet were which I followed with my eyes. I stiffened as I saw the eater surrounded me and screamed out a nonsense sound.

It later came to me I screamed out Ay Kabaiya!

Don’t ask me why I screamed that out except that the God of the Underworld as known by the name of Lance Richard granted me a favor by keeping me alive to live again. I ran towards the rocky wall running while feeling the burning going to my legs. I forced myself to keep running till I reached the rocky wall and paused when I spotted a doorway opening in it. I ran in the doorway opening running into a corridor with stone walls. I ran not caring where I went till my lungs started bursting and I collapsed onto my knees on the dirt floor. I shut my eyes panting for breath and discovered the burning and hotness sensations gone from me. I opened my eyes as I continued to pant. I looked up with night vision of purple of objects, with humanoids appearing in pink colors for life forms. I wound up seeing a large sarcophagus coffin of Lance Richard, the God of the Underworld also known as an annoyance god according to the High Council. The statue was in front of me next to the wall of a large room that was high overhead. I didn’t realize that the God of Hell as named by the High Council had managed to trap me into his Underworld Kingdom while I remained alive in my mind. I exhaled a breath getting up from the dirt floor to stare at the sarcophagus. I saw had a sword spear on top of it I recognized as a weapon called Mikan. I sighed and walked towards the sarcophagus leaning over with clawed hands on the Mikan which I with great strength yanked off.

I stood holding the Mikan in my hands as I spoke out loud This place is my home. I won’t leave it and suffer your fate, Father. I refused to let what happened to you happen to me.

I exhaled a breath then felt tiredness arriving went to a wall and sat in a leaning position closing my eyes. I felt myself sliding into a lying position laid onto the ground falling asleep despite I further dreamed of I woke up with a gasp. I got up and looked around the room which I saw a doorway opposite from the sarcophagus. I entered to see a corridor with open doorways on both sides. I counted each having the same number of my fingers of one hand. I went into doorways to discover that that they were empty small rooms. I found rats as those gonoids are called scattering in all directions in one room. I feeling hungry captured a rat gagging it to death. I brought the rat to my mouth biting into it eating as I entered another room. I saw had water dripping from the ceiling landing into a small stone pool of water on the floor. I finished with the rat threw the carcass away and went to the pool kneeling. I brought my hand into the pool scooping up water bringing it to my lips repeatedly.

I felt myself better spoke out loud I’ll stay here with the rats as my food and this water pool as my drink.

I got up and walked back to the sarcophagus room where I went to the corner of the room and laid my form on the dirt ground falling asleep which I jerked myself awake when I heard a sound. I opened my eyes as my eyes sight blinked from night vision to day vision while hearing the sound become louder. I sat up to stare at the doorway was a flickering light that was coming nearer and nearer while hearing sounds I recognized as people jabbering. Their words weren’t making any sense to me when I heard them. I got up holding the Mikan in front of me to stare at the open doorway. It revealed a flaming torch light held in a figure wearing High Council’s robes in hand followed by the number of fingers on both hands other figures wearing twin clothing. I stood watching as the figures spoke words I didn’t understand overlapping jabbering all at once. They sounded of anger and annoyance to me. I edged myself closer towards the figures that darted towards the sarcophagus one leaving the torch lying on the floor. They picked at the coffin with knives in their hands. I roared some loud nonsense sound which got the figures to stop their picking as if shocked. I charged at them swinging my Mikan. I heard exclamations of shock from the figures as I used the flat end of the Mikan’s sword part hitting each of them on their heads knocking them out. I stood staring at the figures that lay on the floor unconscious with the torch’s light flickering. Exhaling a breath I picked up a figure by the neck dragging the person out of the room into the corridor passing by doorways towards the entrance where I could see was nighttime. I with great strength tossed the figure into the air that landed away from me onto the sand. The sand resembled a lake to me via splashing all around the figure and swallowing him whole. I went inside and repeated the process with the other figures including tossing out the torch light then went to the rats’ room where I could see rats running around in all directions. With quick hand movements I grabbed a rat by the tail and tossed it in the air catching it with my hand around its neck which I squeezed choking it. I smiled a smile of satisfaction as the rat died giving up to death going limp in my hand. I walked out of the room biting into the rat’s body going out the corridor towards the entrance to outside and stood chewing as I listened. I heard voices yelling exclamations words not understood with overlapping as I listened. I heard sounds of a gonoid sounding familiar sounds as I stood which became fainter and fainter.

I later learned the noises were of a dog’s barking sounding pity tones which I’m told The gonoid was later executed for having a Meritanian plant on its body something the High Council frowned on involving gonoids carrying Meritanians but preferred humanoids to do that job instead.

I once finished with the rat tossed the carcass away went to the pool room going insides to kneel at the pool bringing my hand in it scooping up water which I drank repeatedly.

I spoke once finished drinking I’ll stay here and keep people out for it’s my home my place and my sanctuary. No one will enter this place not if I have to kill them, just to get rid of the people entering here.

I sighed and got up leaving the room to the corridor which I walked entering the large room to stand staring at the sarcophagus. I walked to putting a hand on top of it.

I spoke again I’ll guard you to keep others from interfering with your rest. You have my word on this for I’m not leaving ever. Nothing will bring me out of this sanctuary, except death.

I gave the sarcophagus a rub and removed my hand to go to a corner lying on the ground closing my eyes as I let sleep over come me. I further dreamed of walking in the desert wearing robes that covered my head showing my eyes peering out.

I was following a figure wearing identical robes covering the head which I heard This is Nightwalker, the God King of Hell.

Nightwalker, I call him unsure of why’s he’s said to be the God King of Hell stopped. He removed the robe from his head showing a creepy face I recognized as Hades himself clad in his Hades’ mask. I stood next to him removing my robe from my head to stare at him. Hades as I refer him that Drainer looked at me before a shaking violently which he screamed before looking down. I looked down to see an eater light licking at Hades’ robes surrounding him. I darted towards Hades who hit me with a fist in the face throwing me backwards hitting the ground with ropes tying me there. I lay on the ground staring at Hades with horror on my face as the eater abruptly rose surrounding the male.

I screamed out Father!

I’m not sure why I screamed out Father except the wording was referred to my pleading to my Predecessor to let me live again while I was considered disappeared by the High Council. My predecessor Tom Thunder a dedicated servant of the High Council felt a compulsion via Fatherly instincts hitting him to bring a hand onto my front he told me this.

He brought a hand onto my front and with his Berserker side in control mentally spoke Heart restart.

I wound told You sucked oxygen as if alive gasping loudly before stopping the gasping and appeared to be breathing shallow or very slowly. Rana the medical doctor was said to find a heartbeat from you in your chest when she laid her instrument onto the area. The High Council in response ordered you to medical bay for further examination.

As I was saying I heard Hades gave out a crying wail and then the flames went shooting into the sky leaving a black round soot mark on the ground in place of the male. The scene in my mind went black as if I was dreaming that scene.

I woke up screaming of terror shaking my form which took me moments to understand where I was. I was still unconscious dreaming those odd dreams involving Lance Richard keeping me alive and expecting a favor from that.

I kept on dreaming further of my adventure while contained in that tomb kept alive by the God of Hell. Groaning I rubbed a hand on my head and stood up as my eyes sight flashed from night vision to day vision. I looked at the corridor doorway to see fire light becoming brighter and brighter which I gripped the Mikan in my hands while softly growling. I stared at the light source revealing a figure with a male form holding a torch. I saw had shoulder length blonde colored hair while wearing robes that looked familiar all colored in death robed with a hood that came into the room.

I snarled softly as the figure turned to my direction speaking words I understood That’s there? Show yourself now.

I slowly walked forward my eyes on the male’s eyes that widened seeing me as if shocked.

I stared at the stranger who spoke again Why are you living here surrounded by darkness instead of being in the light?

I heard a voice spoke I didn’t realize at the time that my body had gone into some status involving being nearly declared disappeared on arrival back to Aire. It was the doctor dubbed Kurpanov in his medical sanctuary with my clone Tom scanning my mind. I was told both came to realize I was still alive contained in my mind with the God of the Underworld holding me there. The stranger was a representation of Tank was trying to communicate with me hence he visiting me in my mind in Lance Richard’s sanctuary.

I in response swung the wide end of the Mikan at the stranger hitting him on the knees knocking him to kneel. I angrily grabbed the stranger’s long hair yanking him in a standing position thrusting the sword part of the Mikan at the stranger’s neck.

I spoke I won’t tolerate visitors here who will be removed by my force even killed if they resist.

I yanked the stranger into the hallway towards the entrance where I could see sunlight shining outside. I brought the stranger to the entrance and thrust my back to the wall.

I spoke Tell the others to stay out. This is my sanctuary, no one enters.

I turned my back and sensed the torch light behind me shining which I continued walking through the corridor entering the sarcophagus room. I kneeled as my dream Hades burned flashed in my mind making me scared and nervous. Groaning I rubbed a hand on my forehead and once again my eyesight flickered. Growling I got up and turned towards the room’s entrance to see a male with short dark colored hair wearing identical robes as the stranger enter the room with a torch in hand.

I charged at the stranger who spoke Mindbender, I’m called Tank.

I paused mid charge hearing that name spoken by the stranger Tank. I didn’t realize that Tank or whatever pieces of him was mind scanning me via Kurpanov’s medical bay. I assumed the plant is a piece of Tank himself mind scanning me. Tank wound up pointed out as one of the other doctors employed by Kurpanov Kossman the medical doctor that was mind scanning me at the time to bring me out of my deathly status. The image of Hades catching on fire came to my mind making me react violently. I continued my charge swinging the Mikan at Tank who put the torch in front of his face. As I swung, fire from the torch came blowing at me towards my eyes blinding me temporary. I dropped the Mikan bending down placing hands over my eyes while hearing running footsteps getting fainter and fainter. I removed my hands to blink my eyes which I felt were fine and straightened up my form. I exhaled a breath and looked down on the ground for my Mikan I saw wasn’t there.

Frowning I looked around eyes staring at the ground then I growled out loud That stranger, Tank, stole my weapon!

I roared an angry sound then jogged out of the room to the corridor to the entrance that looked twin to a Traveler’s Gate from the looks of it as I entered the metal arch. I walked out into the sunlight to see Tank holding my Mikan in his hands which he formed a smirk seeing me. Tank was standing next to the stranger I kicked out holding a torch and behind them was a crowd of people who abruptly went silent seeing me. I darted up to Tank and yanked the Mikan out of his grip then turned my back to the crowd pausing when I heard gasping sounds from behind me. I didn’t realize that my back had this marking of a cloned copy onto my back. The marking was of a belly button area onto my spinal column like other clones had. Shaking my head, I walked back into the tomb entering the hallway again which I again reached the sarcophagus room. My eyesight blinked again which I spun around to see Tank walking speedily into the room. I edged myself towards the wall eyes on him. I saw Tank go up to the coffin and kneel form becoming still.

Shaking my head of disgust I turned away towards the doorway when I heard a voice speaking "Tom
