Chapter 2: The Dream
"AAAAAAAAARRRRGGGHHH!!" Karitou yelled after seeing everyone that he loved vanish in front of him. "YOU'LL PAY FOR WHAT YOU HAVE DONE!!"
The sky starts to turn dark and no light rays from the sun was seen. All that was seen was Karitou, with his body starting to glow in a purple-ish colour.
"What kind of power is this?! What are you trying to do?!" The unknown man said, looking terrified.
"You've killed all my friends... My family.. My sensei... Now.. You're next.." Karitou spoke as a lightning bolt struck him.
The unknown man was shocked on what was happening. Clouds were swirling above them. Lightning struck down around the area, almost hitting the man. He rushed towards Karitou to attack him, but was blocked by a barrier of purple lightning surrounding Karitou.
"You're not going to defeat me even with your fancy lightnings." The man scoffed.
"Who said about me defeating you?" Karitou smirked. "It's him you're dealing with now."
"W-what?!" The man said with his eyes open wide.
Karitou grabbed his katana from his belt, focussing every single power left from his body. Even in a lot of pain from fighting, he's determined to use his gimmick which will drain all his stamina if he used it too long.
"Ken-gata Doragon Umare, OVER LIMIT!!" Karitou yelled. The ground under him started to shake aggressively, shattering some of the land. Purple light started to appear on to him, causing him to glow even brighter.
"This is not what I planned... YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSE TO ACHIEVE THAT FORM!!" The man yelled and threw his silver dagger towards Karitou. A quick flash of light appeared, blinding the man. The light then slowly disappear.
"It's not going to be that easy now." Karitou said while holding the dagger in his hands. That's not Karitou anymore. He wasn't a normal human now. He grew horns and his skin was purple with scales, like some kind of a dragon like creature. "Now you're going to have to deal with me."
Karitou threw the dagger on to the ground, shattering it. The man, shocked with his eyes wide open.
"What? Scared? Surprised? Wouldn't surprise me to see you looking like that." Karitou laughed at the man. The man summoned 5 daggers around him and threw all of them at Karitou. He dogded all of them with ease.
"Now it's my turn." Karitou pulled out his katana, focusing his eyes on the man. "DRAGON RUSH!!"
Karitou rushed towards the man, with speed that light couldn't even beat. "You're dead.." He got a glimpse of man's face which one covered by his hood.
"BEEP, BEEP, BEEP, BEEP" The man, beeped?
"W-what??" Karitou said in confusion. Suddenly, he fell down on the ground.
"OOWW!!" Karitou fell on the floor. He opened his eyes to see that he fell off his bed. "What the heck... It was only a dream??" He realised that he was just dreaming about fighting a villain. He got up and sat back down in his bed.
"Why was I even fighting that guy?" He asked himself. "Eeh, it's just a dream. Who cares.." Karitou was still tired and decided to go back to sleep, not knowing what time it was. Suddenly...
"KARITOOOUU!!!!" Someone yelled from downstairs. It was a woman's voice.
"OH CRAP, I FORGOT I HAVE SCHOOL!!" Karitou plead. "UUUH, BE THERE IN A SEC!!!"
Karitou jumped out of bed, rushing towards his bathroom. After finishing, he sprinted towards his wardrobe to get dressed. He put on his school uniform, grabbed his back and rushed down the stairs, tripping on a ball that was on one of the steps. Karitou was tumbling down the fleet of stairs until he reached the bottom.
"Ow..." Karitou whispered to himself in pain. He got up and tidied his clothes which was wrinkled from falling. He walked into the kitchen to see his mom in front of the doorway and his dad in the back looking terrified. "Crap..." Karitou mumbled.
"Good morning sweetie. Did you have a good night's sleep?" His mom assert with fire in her eyes. Her nails were sharp and her hair was flowing.
"Y-yes. I did..." Karitou stuttered. One thing to know about Karitou's mom is that when she's angry, she really turns into a lion. That's what her gimmick is. It's scary to have a mom like that.
"Oh. That's nice. If you haven't notice. YOU'RE ABOUT TO BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!!!" Karitou's mom roared. Everything in the house started to shake aggressively from her roar.
"I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY!!" Karitou panicked and grabbed a slice of bread and rushed out the kitchen. He grabbed his shoes, not having the time to put them on and bolted out the entrance of the house. He looked back and can still see the house shaking a bit. He slowed down and stopped at a light post, threw his shoes down and slid them on. After tiying his shoes, he heard someone calling his name.
"KARITOOU!!" Someone yelled. No, it wasn't his mother. The neighborhood would've shook if his mom yelled. It was a male voice. They had a thick Texan accent. Karitou stood up and looked back to see who's calling him. It was Zarkes, a friend of Karitou. He was wearing a black cowboy hat, had long brown wavy hair, an eye patch on his left eye from an accident that he was in a long time a go and was wearing his vest around his waist.
"Hey there partner!!" Zarkes greeted. "Heard that yer' mom was yellin' at ya again..."
Another thing to know about Karitou's mom is that her voice can be heard from a far distance. Like, REALLY far. Approximately 30 houses away and you can still hear her yelling.
"Oh.. Yeah, I just woke up a bit late today." Karitou explained to Zarkes. "I had the most craziest dream today..."
"Wanna talk 'bout it?" Zarkes asked, raising his left eyebrow.
"Well, everybody that I knew just vanish in front of my own eyes... I was fighting someone. Didn't get to see their face though... And, he said something about me achieving some kind of form." Karitou said, asserting the last part.
"Sounds like a bad nightmare to me. It's only a dream ain't it? Don't need to believe your silly imagination." Zarkes nudged Karitou's shoulder.
"Yup... Just a nightmare.." Karitou mumbled to himself.
Both of the boys continue to walk to their school. It wasn't far from the neighborhood they live in. Oh, forgot to mention that the school's name is Vexxzine Highschool. A school for teenagers to learn about their gimmicks and also training them. It's one of the best school in Vexxzine. The school is run by the most excellent teachers so that the students will get to use their gimmicks efficiently. After a couple of minutes just walking and talking, the boys finally reached the entrance of the school. Explosions and chaos can be heard behind the school.
"Oh, it's the gimmick exam today." Zarkes said, looking excited to use his gimmick and to impress someone that he liked. "I can finally show of my skills to her, hehe.." He said in his mind. "Alrighty then. Let's go in. Karitou?" Zarkes looked to the side to see what Karitou was doing.
"Crap..." Karitou said, body frozen and looked pale.
