Previously: Ciso battled with an unknown character which has him on his butt with an arrow sticking at his head. Here’s the link to the 1st episode. link
As the smoke dissipated (disappeared) an imperious (commanding) voice announced, “It is I, Athena Pierce, descendent of an ancient elf and fairy bloodline. My ancestors mastered the techniques of archery and passed them down to me, the only elf still living. Once, I saved this village from an evil force 500 years ago. I will not let a puny human hurt any habitant of this beautiful village!”

And with that said she let the bowstring go, Ciso relaxed and anticipated the blow. To his surprise nothing struck them all he heard was a whistling sound and then silence. He slowly opened his eyes…

Athena had disappeared but in her place stood someone else leaning on a long, slick, darkened sword. A DoomBringer. He was smiling but grimly and stared down at Ciso, looking at his chest. Ciso also looked down and, surprised, saw 2 arrows poking out from his chest, blood flowing freely. Ciso gasped and crumbled on the floor.

Flash-Back from long away:

Ciso was walking along the outskirts of Amherst town; he never dared to go out of the village because of the powerful orange mushrooms that killed more than 20 people per year. And he also had a frightening encounter with one. As he walked he thought to himself, “wouldn’t it be great to one day be able to kill one of those mushrooms? I would make my daddy so proud!” But he then darkened and again whispered “What am I thinking… My dad was taken by the dark legion when I was just a few years old, he would be dead already”

Ciso walked a little, ran a little until he was tired, so he sat on a large bench and gazed up at the clouds. But all he saw were strange shapes that looked like ice-cream cones. “After a minute or two he heard a voice calling out his name. “Ciso! Ciso! Hi! Ciso what are you planning to do today?” A little boy holding a sword trying to kill a snail shouted.

Ciso replied “Nothing really interesting, Jason. Hey I have a dream, wanna hear about it?” Jason finished the snail off with a surprising 3 and went to sit with Ciso “Sure, why not?” Ciso said “Ok, do you know about the big orange mushrooms? Well, one day I want to slay one of them and bring an orange cap for mommy to make a soup! Maybe we can train together and kill a mushroom together?” Jason, “Wow, that’s a hard thing to do… but let’s try!” So the two of them happily got up and started killing snail after snail.

End of flash-back

Ciso woke up to find himself lying on a, by the looks, very expensive bed. He also realized that his armor was gone and in their place was an exquisite cyan sauna robe. He turned his head and saw that his weapons and his bag were resting on a small table. He saw a glass full of clear liquid and slowly reached out, grabbed it, and gulped it down with a single swallow, the glass of fluid refreshed him. He slowly sat up but winced as he felt his chest aching. A woman walked in but as soon as she saw Ciso sitting, she shrieked and dropped all the cups she was holding. The woman quickly bent down and muttered an excuse for startling Ciso, but the assassin quickly replied that he had no business here and he should immediately leave.

(Mmh, sorry for the interruption but I have to do dialogue cause it would be to hard if I put their paroles in a paragraph)

Woman: Oh! Mister, sorry to wake you up like this. My name is Sora (well, it’s a boy’s name but oh well <_<”) by the way.
Ciso: Not to worry, I’m the one that’s not to be here. I should leave…
Sora: No! I mean, don’t leave. My husband would like to talk to you.
Ciso: Alright, when should I meet him?
Sora: Now if you’d like.

Sora slowly left the room and told the injured man to follow her. Ciso got up and instead of shoes; a pair of golden sandals awaited him. He put them on and slowly walked with Sora. As the pair of them entered a huge dining room a few distressed servants rushed by them. They entered another immense room, and as soon as they entered a total darkness fell upon them. Ciso panicked and asked “Sora! Sora, what’s going on?” There was no reply…

Again he found the drawer where his weapons laid. Quickly he put them on, and as soon as he did, a voice boomed throughout the room: Well, so you’re Ciso… I never talk to people except my wife and servants, but I do talk to those who are worthy of talking to me… Take this!”

A yellow light illuminated the room and Ciso saw in front of him the same person that stood before him in Henesys Park. He too was wearing the same clothes that Ciso was wearing. Ciso boosted his claw and hasted, he found out that his Tobis were recharged. He forgot about his pain and threw Tobi after Tobi at his adversary. None of them hit their target though, the wielder of them DoomBringer blocked all the Tobis. When he saw that Ciso was almost tired he struck back with tremendous force. And as the DoomBringer struck Ciso’s claw, violet sparks sprayed everywhere. For 10 seconds, as if time had stopped, they both stood there. Nobody losing their ground until finally the warrior slowly released his weapon, and both of them were blasted to either side of the room.

The warrior lifted his head up, “Hehe, old friend. I see that you still didn’t lose your spark!”

Old friend?! What is he talking about!
