Terry flew back and slammed into the wall. Tyler lowers his leg and goes over to help him up.

Terry panted heavily and positioned himself for another sparring match and Tyler raised his arms. Once more scales erupted from his skin and his eyes became more reptilian. A tail protruded from his behind and swung with great force shattering the ground behind him.

Terry had grown to be less intimidated by Tyler's transformation but he was still uneasy when it came to confronting him.

Tyler saw that Terry was unstable and rushed forward his clawed hands extending forward in a judo position. Terry fled backwards with the sudden movement and spun his leg around in a spinning kick.

Terry easily grabbed his leg and flipped him, slamming Terry into the ground once more. Terry coughed repeatedly and even bits of blood fled from his mouth and onto the floor.

"Enough, how many times have I told you not to use your legs" Tyler said helping Terry back up to his feet.

"I know I know." Terry cried out and took a long breath. "How did you get so good at fighting, you kept repelling all my attacks and sending me flying" Terry asked in shock and Tyler just smiled "Honed these skills myself. The first time I came here I was a regular boy like you, there was no predecessor to guide the 12 newbies that had arrived in God's dimension. In that Mission alone only two of us survived. "

Terry was taken back at the growth of Tyler. From nothing to an excellent fighter. Terry could only dream of having power with his weak fighting abilities. Tyler clasped his hands on Terry's shoulder. "You have potential kid, don't give up hope, Shelby is a competent commander and will get us through these problems with minimal sacrifices"

Terry felt reassured by Tyler's conviction but he himself was less sure of his overall abilities. Terry became exhausted after a while and Tyler allowed him to leave. Arriving home he found Mimi had prepared dinner and was waiting patiently to come back. " Is everything okay?" Mimi asked and Terry smiled and collapsed at the table.

"Thanks for preparing the meal Mimi" Terry muttered and Mimi glanced over with worry. "Tomorrow is the last day before you have to go right?" Mimi asked and Terry nodded. "If possible I don't want you to go" Mimi said simply and Terry looked up.

"If possible I want to stay safe but I am now part of the team, If I back down now then I could never forgive myself" Terry said and Mimi looked down, ashamed. "Its okay Mimi, I understand how you feel. If you were the one going then I myself would want to stop you as well" Terry quickly said and Mimi looked up again, tears welled in her eyes.

Terry leaned over to hug her and a knock on the door brought both of them out of this embrace.

"Terry, Master wants everyone to meet up tomorrow to exchange for necessary supplies and discuss possible strategies" A voice calls from the other side and then the shuffling of feet.

"Looks like the foods going to get cold, let us eat together and hope I come back" Terry raised his glass of water and cheered. Mimi wiped her tears and smiled ,raising her own glass.

Terry woke up the next morning feeling refreshed. He gathered in front of the ball of light and the rest of the team started to gather as well.

"Layers of Fear: A game about an artist who is trying to complete a master piece using the body parts of his dead wife. It may not be a lethal game but there are hallucinations of his wandering and depressed daughter. Therefore we can infer that this time around will be a supernatural movie. " Shelby announced.

"Possible Missions: Finish the Masterpiece, Defeat the Illusions, Fixed the Warped Reality."

"If its defeating the illusions then everyone except Jesse and Terry will be capable of fending themselves. If its the masterpiece then we can do teams of two with additional members based on the newbies that come in this time around. As for the warped reality I believe that we have a 60% chance of a wipe with only the veteran of the veterans surviving" Shelby inferred to the rest of the team and this brought about a wave of mumbling.

"If that is the case then we trust in your decisions leader" Cody called out and then Tyler, Arielle and himself launched their fists into the air with a loud cheer.

Jesse and Terry were both confused at the team's enthusiasm but they clapped their hands in response to the team's enthusiasm.

"Okay everyone rest up, enjoy yourselves this final day and be in the best state of mind." Shelby said and then she stepped down

Terry headed back to his room and started to put a movie into the Dvd player and the intro song of an animation came up. Mimi came from the kitchen with some sandwiches and plopped herself down. "Tomorrow is the day huh" Mimi sighed and Terry looked over. "Yeah the days tomorrow"

"I hope you come back safe and sound"

"I'll make sure to come back safe and sound"

"Is that a promise?"

"Surely is"

"Then I'll expect you back"

"Got it"

The duo sat in silence as the movie progressed. "What is this movie its so dark" Mimi asked.

"The movie "9". I loved the stitch-punks my favorite is 5. "

"But why is that machine hunting them?"

"For the soul I guess, to be closer to his creator"

"Rest up, a soul stealer is a scary figure, I hope you don't enter that movie"

"It would be impossible, all life is dead so air is probably non-breathable."

"Its still possible, mass death plus a machine to survive against"

"I guess your right"

The movie went on and after that movie another movie was popped in and watched. The day passed like this by relaxation and movie watching.

__________________________________________________________________________

The next morning arrived and Terry walked out feeling refreshed. Terry had a few scrolls of fire, lightning and wind. Each had costed him 100 each and Terry was saddened but it was for the best for him to get a grasp of what divine ability he wanted to get some protection if it was a supernatural movie.

Terry fastened the scrolls to his belt and then walked forward to the platform where 20 pillars of light were shining. Mimi followed close behind with a small basket made of homemade food. Arielle and Cody were hanging off each other with Cody's maid on the side. Janis and Shelby were walking toward the beam with Tyler coming over as well his body covered by his giant hooded-overcoat once more.

Jesse trotted over and then the lights shined. "Everyone lets go, be sure to have everything in the beam or it risks getting deleted"

"Enter the Beam within thirty seconds. Target Locked: Layers of Fear

The beams started to light up and Janis suddenly pushed Mimi into the beam of light and she crashed into Terry and with a flash they all disappeared.

"Did you have to do that" the maid asked Janis and Janis straightened himself.

"Of course, we wouldn't want to see one of our masters be heartbroken because he didn't buy her immunity, you yourself was lucky to have survived when the team forgotten to buy you immunity" Janis tightened his collar and headed back to Shelby's room.

"And due to that mistake Kryster died instead of me" the maid sighed and went to clean the floor for the hundredth time.
