The sound of children laughing fills the air, much to the surprise of ๐๐๐๐๐๐. He looks around and notices he is laying on the ground, he sits up and looks around at his surroundings. He's been laying down in a field, full of tall green grass and colourful flowers as far as the eye can see. The sounds of laughter grow louder, which again confuses ๐๐๐๐๐๐. He pulls himself to his feet, following the sound of laughter, looking around the field as the laughter continues.
๐๐๐๐๐๐: I... where am I?
๐๐๐๐๐๐ eventually begins walking towards the source of the laughter, after walking for some time he sees two children, a boy and a girl, playing on a swingset in the distance. He doesn't know why... but he feels compelled to go towards them... as he does he sees a woman sitting on a bench nearby to where the children are playing.
๐๐๐๐๐๐: ...hello?
The woman turns her head to face ๐๐๐๐๐๐, and a smile forms across her face.
Kฬทฬฬอฬ eฬตอฬนฬฐlฬธฬฝฬพฬฬฬlฬดออออฬฏฬyฬธฬฬฬอฬปอฬฎฬ: Hey there, *ฬตฬอออฬฑอฬจฬชฬฌ&ฬดฬฬพฬออออฬชฬฬฬ come sit with me... .ฬทฬออฬณ.ฬถอฬฬฬณฬช and .ฬทฬออฬณ.ฬถอฬฬฬณฬช were waiting for you to show up.
๐๐๐๐๐๐ looks at her, then at the two children playing, and sits down next to her... something about this feels... warm. Like he was meant to be here. He turns his head to look at Kฬทฬฬอฬ eฬตอฬนฬฐlฬธฬฝฬพฬฬฬlฬดออออฬฏฬyฬธฬฬฬอฬปอฬฎฬ sitting next to him
๐๐๐๐๐๐: How long has it been?
Kฬทฬฬอฬ eฬตอฬนฬฐlฬธฬฝฬพฬฬฬlฬดออออฬฏฬyฬธฬฬฬอฬปอฬฎฬ: It's been too long, my love...
The woman softly kisses the side of ๐๐๐๐๐๐'s face.
Kฬทฬฬอฬ eฬตอฬนฬฐlฬธฬฝฬพฬฬฬlฬดออออฬฏฬyฬธฬฬฬอฬปอฬฎฬ: But you're here now... that's all that matters.
๐๐๐๐๐๐ looks at the woman and smiles, before turning his attention to the children, who have now noticed him, they come running towards him with a massive smile across both of their faces, arms outstretched.

.ฬทฬออฬณ.ฬถอฬฬฬณฬช.ฬถฬออ ฬคฬบอ.ฬตออ : DADDY!
๐๐๐๐๐๐ opens his arms just as the two kids run straight into them, wrapping their arms around him. ๐๐๐๐๐๐ returns the hug as a small tear forms in the corner of his eye and runs down his cheek. He kisses the top of both child's head. He holds them close as he notices a small white cloud rolling through, as the girl looks up at him with puppy dog eyes and speaks.
.ฬทฬออฬณ.ฬถอฬฬฬณฬช.ฬถฬออ ฬคฬบอ.ฬตออ : Are you here with us forever, Daddy?
๐๐๐๐๐๐ doesn't know what to say to it... so he just looks in her eyes and nods.
๐๐๐๐๐๐: I... I hope so.
Then the boys speaks up.

At that point, a loud crack of thunder startles ๐๐๐๐๐๐, causing him to flinch. He looks around and the small white cloud has now turned a blood red, and is the only thing you can see in the sky. He then looks behind him anf the lively field has quickly turned dried up and dead. The green grass now turned a sickly shade of yellow, and the flowers are no more, as he looks around at the field, he speaks.
๐๐๐๐๐๐: I... what was that?
He then turns to look at the children, and is startled when he sees their once clean face covered in blood.

๐๐๐๐๐๐ looks to his right and again, is shocked at the sight he sees, the woman next to him is now contorted in a way bodies shouldn't be.
Kฬทฬฬอฬ eฬตอฬนฬฐlฬธฬฝฬพฬฬฬlฬดออออฬฏฬyฬธฬฬฬอฬปอฬฎฬ: You could have saved us, *ฬตฬอออฬฑอฬจฬชฬฌ&ฬดฬฬพฬออออฬชฬฬฬ... why didn't you save us?
๐๐๐๐๐๐'s eyes dart around, looking for an escape... but nothing is there. He closes his eyes and screams... and wakes up in a cold sweat. He looks around at his surroundings... it's the same concrete room he has been living in for... well... as long as he remembers. He shifts his body so he's sitting on the edge of his bed, thats when another voice startles him.
The Man in Red: You had another nightmare... haven't you?
The Man in Red was standing in the doorway of ๐๐๐๐๐๐'s room, before taking a step into the room.
The Man in Red: Enough of that. Get up.
๐๐๐๐๐๐ looks at The Man in Red and grunts, getting off the bed.
๐๐๐๐๐๐: What?
The Man in Red: You're booked. I have a match for you.
๐๐๐๐๐๐ smirks and chuckles.
๐๐๐๐๐๐: What makes you think I want to fight anyone for you?
The Man in Red takes a step forward towards ๐๐๐๐๐๐, before slapping him across the face as hard as he can!
The Man in Red: Does it look like you have a fucking choice, ๐๐๐๐๐๐? YOU live under MY roof. YOU will listen to what I say. YOU will do as I demand. Is that understood?
๐๐๐๐๐๐ goes to speak, only to be slapped once more by The Man in Red.
The Man in Red: I said is that understood?!
๐๐๐๐๐๐, instead of speaking, nods his head.
The Man in Red: Excellent... now come. We have business to attend to before your debut. We need to make sure you're in fighting condition.
With that, ๐๐๐๐๐๐ walks past The Man in Red out of the room, as The Man in Red closes the door behind him.
