Blackness; that was all Alex could see. He couldn't feel anything or sense anything. No sound was heard, no noise could be made, and it seemed as if Alex was floating endlessly in space. The swordsman felt as if he was in sleep paralysis. He was no where but yet conscious of what was going on around him. The last thing Alex remembered was the long walk toward a house, the site of the KoV finals. After facing formidable opponents, he was given the opportunity to fight for the crown. It was rather bizarre though, the last stage was a house that had various rooms that seemed to bend reality itself and that was when a strange man appeared.
"Perfect timing."
It was then a bright flash engulfed the Warrior and transferred him to a realm of darkness. The fight never took place; until now. The same voice had begun to speak, "It's time for your battle."
Alex's eyes shot open. Instantly, he gasped for air as if he had awoken from a nightmare; but the landscape that was presented before him seemed to be that from a dream. The skies were pink and the clouds were of a variety of colors. The road in which his body lied on seemed to be that of hard candy. The swordsman began to stand as his eyes followed the rainbow road in order to examine the area.Quacking sounds were heard at the side of the road. Shifting his eyes over he saw marshmallow ducks in what seemed to be a chocolate pond; the smell seemed to give evidence to that. Laffy Taffy trees swirled up from the ground and wrapped around the tall candy cane poles. Bushes were everywhere, filled with gumdrops. Just a distance away, there were homes made of cookies. It seemed this was the location of the final round. It was a rather odd place to hold a finals.
Suddenly a flash of light appeared high in the sky. An object seemed to be falling. Alex's face was calm, emotionless as always. CRACK!
The blade known as Stryke had fallen from the pink skies and landed perfectly on it's tip a few feet away from it's owner. The impact had cracked the hard candy floor and the crack itself expanded towards Alex, as if it was leading the swordsman to his blade. He began to walk toward the blade. The Land of Sweets seemed to be the location of the KoV finals. At this moment it didn't matter who or what brought him here, Alex entered the KoV to win it all. With Stryke at hand the battle could commence.
