ENTER REALITY

Kage: The End Of Paradise is strong enough to the point where it can break through frozen time? Dang. Can't wait to brag about this!

Kage walks up to the cold grandfather

Kage: You was a strong warrior, Grandpa. But your old wrinkly bones can't hang with the youth.

The Cold Grandfather: Your power…..it's so. Unpredictable! Tell me young man, what exactly is your power?

Kage: Well, It's a little bit of everything. From lighting, to fire, to combining powers, to make new powers. All that stuff.

The Cold Grandfather: Heh. And then there's me who can just make things cold.

Kage: Aye. That's still a good power man. You literally made it so cold that you literally froze time.

The Cold Grandfather: And you broke through it.

Kage: Yup, I guess I did. Guess that means I've gotten stronger.

The Cold Grandfather starts disintegrating.

Kage: Welp, Looks like your time is up old man.

The Cold Grandfather: Eh. I guess so. It was a good battle, kid.

Kage: Good battle indeed. Well I gotta get going. I have a visitor in my house.

As Kage walks off…..

The Cold Grandfather: Young Man!

Kage ignores him and keeps walking

The Cold Grandfather: Why do you fight for good unlike the other sorcerers?

Kage keeps walking.

The Cold Grandfather: there has to be a reason!

Kage keeps walking

The Cold Grandfather: YOUNG MAN! I KNOW YOU HEAR ME! WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO IF YOU WIN THE TOURNAMENT OF REALITIES? WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE OF FIGHTING?

Kage stops walking and turns around.

Kage: Um. To make the world a better place I guess.

Kage continues walking.

The Cold Grandfather: Why?

Kage:...….Well my mom did say that I—-

The Cold Grandfather: I didn't ask for your mom's reason. I asked for your reason!

Kage:...…

The Cold Grandfather: You don't know, don't ya?

Kage:.....Your asking too many questions, old man. You're about to get eliminated and fade into nothingness. So what do you gain from asking me all of these questions?

The Cold Grandfather: It's not about what I gain. It's about what do you gain! There's a reason for everything young man. You got to find your reason. Matter of fact I've been hearing some words form the youngins about the reality sorcerer event.

Kage: A reality sorcerer event that I won't participate in.

The Cold Grandfather: You don't get it. This event will answer all of your questions. It's called The Memory Maze event. I don't know all the details but all I know is that if you win, all your questions will be answered, and all your memories will be restored.

Kage: Uh?

The Cold Grandfather: Oh yeah I got your attention now youngin? I'm assuming that you have some lost memories kid. If that is the case then the memory maze should be beneficial. Maybe you should consider——

Suddenly a big behind rock crushes the Cold Grandfather. And he fades away. Eliminated from the Tournament Of Realies.

Kage: You know, he was already fading away Rochi. You ain't have to do all of that.

Rochi: He was yapping!

Kage: Still, you could've just let him simply fade away?

Rochi: C'mon man who knows how long he was gonna be yapping for if he just faded away?

Kage: Only you Rochi. Only you.

Rochi: The one and only.

Kage: anyways, I'm assuming you dealt with the other reality sorcerers?

Rochi: Yep. They were light work.

Kage: Bet. And where's Lavonia?

Rochi: Lavonia? She right behind you.

Kage: huh?

Kage turns around and sees Lavonia.

Lavonia: Your so lame Rochi. Anyways Hii Kage!!

Kage: Hey Lavonia…..what were you doing behind—-

Lavonia: Don't worry about it!

Kage: I think I should—

Lavonia: No you shouldn't

Lavonia starts muttering

Lavonia: Definitely wasn't gonna smack your butt or anything.

Kage: huh?

Lavonia: Nothing! Anyways it looked like that old man packed quite the punch.

Kage: Eh. Something think that. But he was talking about something before SOMEONE….

Kage looks dead at Rochi.

Kage:…..crushed him with a rock.

Rochi:….My apologies dang man.

Lavonia: What was he talking about?

Kage: Something about a reality sorcerer event called The Memory Maze. I would know more if SOMEONE….

Kage looks at Rochi again.

Rochi: C'mon man chill on me.

Kage:…..didn't crush him with a rock.

Lavonia: You think you're going to participate?

Kage: Ehhh I don't know Lavonia. I gotta think about it. But imma think about it more after I meet this visitor at my house. Actually, we should probably walk and talk.

Rochi: Hm. You know Actually Lavonia.

Lavonia: Mhm?

Rochi: You can get a head start, I gotta talk to Kage about something.

Kage: Huh?

Rochi: You know Lavonia, Guy talk

Kage: Ain't nun to talk about.

Rochi: Shhhhhhh! Quiet Kage! But yeah guy talk Lavonia, guy Talk.

Lavonia: Ew. But alright, But I'm not gonna start walking slow for y'all.

Rochi: We'll be quick.

Lavonia: Alright.

Lavonia starts walking, leaving Kage and Rochi alone.

Kage: What's up, Rochi?

Rochi: I should be asking you that. What's up man?

Kage:…..I've been chilling—-

Rochi: Naw man! What's up with you and Lavonia?

Kage:....bro….

Rochi: C'mon man!!! When you gonna start clapping them cheeks?

Kage: Rochi what the f**k are you talking about?

Rochi: C'mom man. Pretty Face, Big Boobs, Big Booty, and a good personality AND you are like one of the only guys she really talks to. Like bro, that's like everything man's dream girl! You could literally have the perfect women! You can't forget that she can cook too!

Kage: Me and her are just friends.

Rochi: NAWWW BRO! Stop lying to yourself! I know you want hit that drawn form the back c'mon, bro to bro. Be honest now.

Kage:…..like I said, Me and Lavonia are just friends.

Kage walks away.

Rochi: REALLY! SO YOUR TELLING ME THAT HER BASICALLY LIVING IN YOUR HOUSE FOR A LITTLE BIT WAS JUST A FRIENDLY GESTURE??????

Kage: Yep.

Rochi: SHE WAS COOKING FOR YOU AND EVERYTHING!

Kage: That's what friends are for.

Rochi: BRO!!! IF Y'ALL ARE JUST FRIENDS, HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF LAVONIA GETS A BOYFRIEND THAT'S NOT YOU!?!?!?

Kage stops walking.

Rochi: YEAH THAT STRUCK A NERVE HUH?

Then Kage continues walking without a word.

Rochi: KAGE!!!! Ugh. Kage, whatever the opposite of delusional for a woman is. That's the perfect word to define you right now.

Kage and Rochi catches up to Lavonia, However Because Rochi was behind Kage, He catches up first.

Kage: Alright, I'm back.

Lavonia: What was you two talking about?

Kage: Eh, Rochi was just yapping about bullcrap.

Lavonia: Sounds like Rochi.

Kage: So Lavonia, how are you holding up?

Lavonia: Holding up from what? A lot has happened in the pass few months.

Kage: Your family.

Lavonia: Oh that. Well I'm fine know. What happened was crazy as hell but like I said, I only really talked to my mom and dad. The others was more so relatives then family so yeah. That's how I'm holding up.

Kage: Ok, that's good.

Lavonia: I do still miss my dad though. Even if he was a…..interesting father.

Kage: Yeah I understand how you feel. What about you mom?

Lavonia: Man, I don't even know how to feel about my mom. I don't even know if he's alive or dead. All I know is that she is missing. But hey. I made it all the way here without them. Yeah I've lost a lot of people. But at least I have you right?

Lavonia gives Kage a little nudge.

Kage: uhh. Yeah. Ya have me.

Lavonia: Yeah…..but what about you? How are you holding up?

Kage: The same as always.

Lavonia: Are you still empty in that head of yours when it comes to your childhood?

Kage: Yeah, pretty much.

Lavonia: You know, that Memory Maze thing sounds helpful.

Kage: Yeahhhh but I still don't know if I want to participate. I think I'm fine without those memories.

Lavonia: Are you?

Kage thinks about if he is actually fine without his childhood memories.

Kage: Well…..

Rochi: BOO!

As Rochi tries to scare Kage and Lavonia, he gets two fists right in the forehead that sends him flying.

Rochi: OUCH! DID Y'ALL NOT KNOW IT WAS ME???

Kage: Oh we knew.

Lavonia: Yeah we knew

Rochi: AND Y'ALL STILL PUNCHED ME??!

Kage and Lavonia: Yep.

Rochi: Bruh!

Kage: But yeah. We're almost at my house. Hopefully this visitor is a nice person.

Lavonia: How did this person get in?

Kage: I'm pretty sure GunDamn just let this person in.

Rochi: Whoever this person is, they better not have come here to throw hands.

Kage: I wonder, what if they're holding GunDamn hostage?

Lavonia: You think they're powerful enough to do that?

Kage: Welp, there's only one way to find out.

The three enters Kage's House.

Kage: Home sweet home.

GunDamn: Hey, you guys.

Lavonia: Hey.

Rochi: Wassup bro.

Kage: Sup GunDamn. What's with the low tone?

GunDamn: Kage, this is someone that you have to see.

Kage: Oh really? Well where is this person at then?

GunDamn: in the living room.

Kage: Well let's not keep this person waiting.

The three walks to the living room.

Kage: Let's make this quick shall….

Kage freezes up in shock as he looks at the chair and sees Jamila.

Jamila:…Kage? KAGE!!!

Jamila gets up and runs to Kage but falls. But before she could hit the floor Kage catches her.

Jamila: Thank….Thank you! Kage!

Jamila gives Kage a big hug while Kage is still in stock.

Kage:…..who…..who are you?

Jamila: Kage…how could you not remember me? I'm Jamila…..your sister!
