Where am I? Where is it so hard to breathe? Why is it so hot? Wh-
"Here you are, I didn't think it would be so hard to find you." Somebody said, picking me up by my collar. Is it Dion? Koji? Z? No it can't be Z
"Who are y-"
"It's Arsenios. After killing your brother. I'm here to finally kill you."
"Wha- What do you mean? Where's Dion!?"
"He's in a better place."
"Ahh!" I tried to punch my I couldn't it hurt way too much.
"Well, I guess it's time to finish what I started... I started with you correct?"
"Shut up."
"Harsh last words, now goodbye!"
Arsenios's hand was coming straight towards me that's when Arsenios got punched square in the face and then tackled. My vision was slightly going in and out so I couldn't really make it out. That's until I heard the person speak.
"Get your hands off my brother! Rahh!" The scream was so loud and the voice was too familiar.
"Dion!" I yelled I could feel the pain all over me.
"Apollo, you need to get out of here! Now!"
"No, I don't want to leave you!"
"You simply can't fight anymore! Escape! Try to take the others and escape! Please! I don't know if I can protect you!"
"This isn't like back then Dion! I just need a little ti-"
"I don't know how much time I have! I can't guarantee that I can win! If I lose you and D1 I'm going never forgive myself! So, please... Please!"
"Dion!"
"Iso!"
Just like he disappeared again, I didn't like it when he did things like this. However, what can I really say? Here I am weak on the ground, pathetic as usual.

"Apollo, I'm going to take him! You. You focus on the other guy!"
"All right! Be careful!"
"Of course! King Of The Court! Iso!"
"You're a zone user? That's pretty rare! You should feel happy about yourself!"
"Thanks. One Sword Style! Gentleman's Slash and Chop!"
"Reality Distortion; Shield!"
With that, he just blocked Dion's attack without any struggle!
"I like what you're doing there, your movements are very elegant aren't they?"
"I'm just trying to be a gentleman, that's all."
"Well let me tell you, even if you're a gentleman you won't make it in this world if you're not willing to get your hands dirty."
"I'm well aware."
"Reality Distortion! Shurikens!" That's when shurikens came at Dion at light speeds, and Dion barely dodged.
"Don't tell you can't dodge that?"
"I can, just wasn't expecting you to do it that fast. I underestimated you."
"I can tell, you wouldn't have put me in this Zone, to begin with." That's when Arsenios disappeared, leaving Dion clueless.
That's when he reappeared sitting on top of Dion's head.
"I'm up here, if you're looking for me."
"Gentlemen'-"
"Reality Distortion: Sword! Decapitation!"
Dion then barely dodged the sword aiming for his neck and got a clean cut on Arsenios.
"Gentlemen's Multiple Slashes!"
"Counter!"
Just like that their swords were hitting each other and countering each other releasing Zoe everywhere and sparks of energy everywhere.
"Alright, you're strong. I can see that, you're the strongest out of everyone I have faced. However, this isn't your win. So I think I'll get serious now."
"You can get as serious as you want! I'll fight till the very end!" Dion remarked with a smile.
"Then allow me to stop playing around." That's when the cuffs fell to the ground. That's when it hit Dion, this whole time he was wearing Zoe restricting cuffs.
"Now, I can get serious."
With that, it was a one-sided massacre. Dion couldn't come up with any attack or any form of power that can make him win. It was getting to the point where he was finding it hard to stand on the ground he made.
"Reality Distortion! Multiple Arms Gatling!" He grew arms and started to punch the life out of Dion, Dion couldn't fight back. This man was on a whole nother level than anyone else. He was number one, and Dion could see why.
"Gent-"
"Multiple Legs Gatling!" Again, Dion tried to get a hit in, a single attack in. But couldn't, all he kept seeing were flashes of air and his blood flying in the sky.
"Give up?"
"My ability is King Of The Court."
"Charging your mind to get to my level, is a pretty good idea."
"With King Of The Court, I can make go against anyone in any amount, if it's an equal split. If I fail to meet these rules I take tremendous damage and lose my Zone. If I meet these requirements I can set how much Zoe you need to stand on the court, to see who's fit to be king. If you take down the King you can gain their strength in power or physical Zoe and become the new King."
"Interesting."
"I'm not done yet. If anyone on the opposite team disobeys the rules then I can get a slight edge on somebody's physical strength, elemental Zoe strength, or regular Zoe. This also goes for me and my team. The same rules apply."
"What a strong ability."
"Gentlemen's slash!" This time Dion caught Arsenios off guard and cut him again.
"Hey... I didn't say to start yet." That's when Arsenios punched Dion so hard he flew all the way back and started to sink under the court.
"There's something about your ability you're not explaining. Let's say you're the king... does that mean your power increases regardless of whose Zone it is."
"It does."
"You should have said something. Charging The State Of Mind only works when you say the information first. Now that I reminded you and I already know, it doesn't damage my mind of peace and instead it damages yours."
"Gentleman's Handkerchief!"
"Didn't I tell you, I decide when you throw any attacks!" He went down to strike Dion but that's when Dion went under the ground and then hop out from behind Arsenios.
"Gentlemen's Slash!" The clear cut on Arsenios made him angry.
"You still insist on breaking rules. You're stupid court trick is annoying as well." Arsenios was talking like a different person.
"The only reason you stacked it on me now, is because you explained your technique. However, you're going to die, can't you see? I've been going easy on you so I can watch you struggle and try to win instead of just ending it quickly."
"Stop. Stop lying."
"What?"
"When you took off those handcuffs I got scared, I thought just for a second that you might be stronger than I am. However, the more I fight you the more I realize... I'm stronger than what I put myself."
"What?"
"I've been so stuck on not using my father's ability. I hate my father, I hate everything he stands for. I hate that man."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"This is the aura of a superior user!"
"One of your friends, I fought in one of your warehouses. He knew I was superior, and I killed him for that."
"Superior? You? No way!"
"I hate my father so much! So much that I wish I could kill him with my own two hands. Still, the ability he gave me I never used because of my hatred for him. If I can just use it, to stop you from harming the ones I love then..."
That's when Dion took a breather and his aura around him changed, it was sharper and thicker. It could choke a person with how sharp and thick it was, this was enough energy to kill someone.
"The power of someone using two abilities, a superior. I'm so excited! You're stronger than I thought! If you pledge your loyalty to the Boss, I can make him look over everything. I can get you off with the injuries you have now! Your punishment will be light like being slapped by anyone for a year and you can't attack back. To prove yourself. You can do this! Accept my offer! You have a better career here than wherever you're working!"
"You remind me... of my father. Would you rather have me trade away my livelihood to join the stronger position? It's stupid how you value the ones around you by strength! We value everyone at our agency no matter what department you're in you we're important! ! It's guys like you guys who make me want to kill everyone in this world for the sake of them. But I can't do that now can I?"
"Suit yourself. Reality Distortion! Two Swords! Die!"
...
"I hate you both! I hate you both! I have a wife who doesn't want to pleasure me the way she used to and a son who I could care less for!"
"Honey, please. I'll do anything you want me to do. Just don't harm the kid."
"I don't care about anything you can fucking do anymore! You should have thought of that before you tried to leave! You're just like the last one."
"You bastard! You cheated on me while we had a kid together! You went to another bitch and got her pregnant and lived out of state, rubbing her fucking feet! You left me all alone! Then you want to come back after, who knows why you came back!"
"You want to know why I came back!?"
"Yes please say!"
"The only reason I came back is because I killed that bitch! Now, what the hell do you think I'm about to do to you."
"Put down that gun!"
"Why should I!? I'm a bastard right!? This is what bastards do!"
"Please, dad put down the gun."
"You shut the hell up! I'm going to shoot you next!"
"Wait, honey, please! Let him go! Let him go and be free from all this!"
"I don't fucking want to!"
"Then! Give me that fucking gun!"
"Stop trying to fight me, you bitch!"
"Dionysus! Run! Run so far that you won't hear the sound of this gun being shot!"
"But Mo-"
"Run! Run Far away!"
"Okay! Okay!
...
It's funny how my Mom, a good person, died because of my horrible father. My father was the one who should have died, not her. It's sickening how the world works like this.
I ran towards my neighbors and they helped out in the situation with my mom and dad. However, we were too late and when the police arrived she already had 16 bullets inside of her head alone.
It was a horrible sight, one I'll never forget. Her blood and guts were scattered across the floor. Her eyes filled with tears and blood. If she didn't die from the bullets she would have died from choking on her own blood, or the loss of the amount of brain she lost.
That's when they found out about his other son and that's when I met Apollo. When I first saw him, he was at least a year younger than me. I don't know why but when I first saw him he... made me so angry. I couldn't explain it at the time, was it anger towards my father? Or was it because my father chose to have an affair with another woman to have him? I know it was stupid at the time to think this way, to think someone is undeserving of their life all because of someone else's mistakes.
Isn't that stupid? Of course, it was, yet that's the thoughts that would race around my head without a second thought. Especially since we got put into an orphanage, things we're just hurting.
