The white haired man looks confused as everyone in the bar looks over at me. Kroc looks concerned as the women frowns looking at us. Eyes smiles clapping her hands.

“Excellent feat of strength boss!” Everyone in the bar cheers as I run outside. I look around see an old looking town that you would find in history books. I start to have a panic attack as I see the white haired man follow me. He has an older looking clothing with some metal armor on. He has a cloak similar to the Nightmare cloak.

“Nightmare are you alright?” I frown as I get a splitting headache.

“Yes.. just a bad headache.” My voice matches Flint’s but a little younger. What the hell is going on. The man smiles happy and looks across the street.

“Well I am about to head back to camp. Want to race?” I shake my head no.

“Not tonight. Maybe tomorrow.” He pauses for a second and takes off into the shadows. I walk back into the bar and up to Kroc.

“Kroc. I need to talk to you.” He looks over at me smiling for a second.

“Okay boss. Give me a second.” He kisses the women on the cheek. “Be right back my Queen.” She smiles getting up going over to Wart and Eyes.

“Be back soon Killer.” The woman sits down and I quickly study her. She has light brown skin and frizzy hair. She wears a robe with stripes going around it. Her hazel eyes stand out as I notice giant tooth necklace hangs from her neck. He smiles happy and follows me outside. Kroc is clean shaven with slightly long brown hair.

“Kroc. I need your help. I think I made a terrible mistake.” He frowns looking around taking me to an alley.

“What happened?” I frown as another headache hits me.

“I.. started listening to the whispers.. and I ended up here.” He frowns looking confused.

“What are you talking about Nightmare?” I frown getting worried.

“I told you that I am..” Everything freezes as a massive headache comes on. I drop to my knees as I feel someone lift me up slamming into the wall. I look up to see Evil Nightmare holding me up against a wall.

“You idiot. You are lucky I found you.” I look around to see everything frozen in time.

“What the hell is going on?” He lets me go and he starts to flicker out in and out. Flint takes his place. I look and feel beyond confused. “Flint?” He looks at me frowning.

“I am sorry but I wasn’t able to hold them back any longer. We need you to get back to your original body.” He pauses as he looks down the alley. Out of the corner of my eye, black tendrils starts to wrap itself on the surrounding buildings. He grabs me by the hand and leads me into a house. He locks the door and looks at me.

“What is going on Flint?” He frowns looking out a window.

“You are living one of my lives. This is my power. I am able to jump back to any point in my life and resume it.” I pause trying to wrap that around in my head.

“But that is impossible..” He looks at me.

“To everyone else. Yes. I am very different thing when compared to everyone else Zack. I need you to focus on the last memory you have.” Something bangs on the door as Flint steps back from it.

“What is that?” He frowns pulling his sword.

“Me.” The doors burst open as a black and white tendril monsters walks through it. It looks like an Infected person. However, the tendrils of white and black are interwoven in between each other. His eyes out blackened pits that stare into your soul. I get a feeling of a struggle inside that thing. Three things are fighting to control that thing and one thing is stronger than the other two.

“Oh Flint. You kept me away from the boy long enough. I want my new body.” Flint raises his sword at him as the creature backs away.

“Stay back Answer. You still aren’t able to come back since I am dead.” The creature turns its head slightly as the room slowly starts to become Infected.

“Flint. Flint. Flint. This very meeting means we can meet.” Answer raises his arm but stops as it gets thrown from the room. I weird looking Nightmare appears wearing old egyptian clothing. He wears a golden crown made of solid gold. He doesn't wear a shirt showing off the massive black tattoo on his chest. I get a feeling of dread. His presence alone causes my knees to buckle.

“Flint Stark. I hereby condemn you to death.” Answer wraps his tendrils around this new Nightmare. Flint grabs me and jumps through the roof landing in a field. He seems panicked and holds up his sword.

“Flint.. Who are they?”

“Answer is my mortal enemy. New God is from a different point in my life. A path none of us taken except for him.” New God appears in front of us.

“You bring in a child into this game Flint Stark. Once I take over the boy’s body, I will destroy everything you hold dear.” Answer appears looking at New God.

“It looks like we have a common enemy.” New God laughs raising his hand up Flint.

“I would never work with such a pathetic version of myself.” Answer unleashes tendrils wrapping New God around.

“I wasn’t talking about him. I am coming for the boy Flint. Get out now.” New God explodes the tendrils wrapped around with a look of annoyance in his eyes. He charges told me with the Answer restraining him with as many tendrils as he can. Just as New God breaks out of the tendrils, Flint brings his sword down trying to cut of New God’s head. The sword bounces off New God’s skin allowing him to kick Flint away. Flint flies across the air slamming into Answer. New God looks at me smiling happily.

“Hello child. I will enjoy subjecting this time like I did my own.” He reaches out grabbing me by the hair. The encroaching sense of subjection enters my body causing my body to stiffen.

“New God! Your fight is with me!” New God drops me looking behind him. Evil Nightmare stands with his hands in his cloak. New God starts to laugh shaking his head slightly.

“I have no idea how one of the weaker ones got involved with this.” Evil Nightmare shrugs holding up a medallion. New God frowns deeply looking toward me. “Impossib-” New God disappears with a cloud of sand. Evil Nightmare walks over to me. The feeling of control comes back to my body as he punches me in the gut.

“See you soon Zack.” I sit up breathing heavy back in my own body.

“You okay Zack?” I look around for a couple of seconds and nod.

“Um.. yea.” She gets up going to her bed. I feel a sense of dread come over me as I hear Answer and New God’s voices in my head. I get up going over to her bed. She pauses confused as I get next to her. “.. I don’t want to be alone tonight Elizabeth..” She pauses getting red and rolls away from me.

“Fine. Just don’t..” She stops as I wrap my arms around her stomach and hold her close to me. Her warmth stops the voices in my head.

“Thank you..” I soon fall asleep without realizing it. My dreams are a constant remainder of those beings of power. The New God seemed so angry and hateful of everything. The Answer seemed to be more like the usal Nightmares I've delt with. The thing he was in though seemed.. troubling. I can't shake it, but I don't think that will be the last time I will deal with them.
