He felt it was a dream that wasn't real so without much effort, he decided to close his eyes and wake up from the treble dream he was having. Immediately again, they passed out after much serious stress to their feet. The man who was said to be anonymous took them off the ground and entered a pothole. Everything became blank for the second time after the first fall.

****** 

Hayden suddenly wakes up a little bit slower than usual and finds himself and his family in a weird place without knowing why. Suddenly, a mysterious man appears in front of them with a spear in between his hands and welcome Hayden as the chosen one and get him educated that he must abide by certain rules if he doesn't want to die. His eyes were not completely enough that he could see who the man was. All he could see was a man standing in front of him with a spear in his hand, he was putting on a big coat made out of animal skin. "Who are you? And where am I?" He asked the same questions he had earlier to the first man he saw. "Who I am, doesn't matter. All you have to do is rest for the journey ahead!" All these words didn't bring about any awareness to him, first, just a few hours, he was in a horror and tormented house which tried to kill him and his family, and now, an anonymous man standing in front of him told him to prepare for the journey ahead. Nothing much was clear enough, he had to understand what the man must be talking about. But he was soon to find out more. He fell asleep…

Subsequently, after the sun had gone down and the night, came across them, Hayden could finally get up after his long rest of sleep. He had been sleeping for the past three hours and to him, it felt like he had been gone for a thousand years. The pains in his head had already subsided through those hours he slept like a baby who just had a cold and warm shower through his body. His strength wasn't fully recovered from all the stress he could still get up on his feet. Then now, the sun was entirely eradicated in the sky the moonlight stormed the clouds with its bright illumination.

"Ahh! What's the pain I'm feeling all over my body? And why can't I correctly remember anything that took place in front of me? Ah! I guess it's all my imagination of many games, but yet, why does everything look this real? I remember I designed something like this, it was my biggest masterpiece. Where did I go wrong with all this?" He asked himself inwardly and gradually he stood up from the chair he saw himself lingered upon."No! Your Majesty, don't get up! You are not fully recovered! Are you feeling better now?"

"Who are you? I have been asking you from the very start, tell me who you are and what I'm doing here!" He answered back to the man who was still anonymous to him. The man went closer to him and sat down with him on the wooden chair that was placed outside his bunker facing the moonlight."I wasn't the one who brought you in it was my brother Sam! My name is Anthony Oliver and you are welcome to my home!" He replied, looking straight at him with a smile on his face. Hayden could finally see it was a middle-aged man, he was probably just entering his early sixties. Hayden was fast in noticing something behind his faint smile, it felt like a message, he was trying to say something, but what was it? He continued asking himself. "Wait a minute, … Were is my family? I haven't seen them yet, but I have become attentive! So tell me. Where are they please" now, by the man's calm behavior, he was convinced that something had happened to them. Anthony, remained and delayed for answers. Instead, he slowly turned to Hayden and gave him a cup of liquid in it. "Here, take this! You will feel better after you must have taken it"

"What is this? What are you giving to me? And you still haven't answered my questions about my family!?!" The man, held his breath for some seconds and remain silent until Hayden stopped asking him so many questions about anything. He stood up from the chair and walked closer to a wooden stick, he held it and looked up to the moon lights, darkness clouded his mind just immediately as he did, he stood in remembering what he wanted to forget about, Hayden had opened his mind off the tremble past that always hunter him whenever he thought of it…

"A year ago, we were attacked by a ruthless magical troll of the seventh kingdom. It was a devastating war, we had a weak king, and because of that, all the able men of the Kingdom had to come out and defend the nation and its people. However, we all were in the battle trying to fight the magical troll, we did our best to defend the country against the monsters that invaded it. We fought to the last of our blood. Maybe life was lost in the war, so those who survived the fight returned home only to find houses on fire, the village was in a crisis, everyone tried running for their lives. Homes we're destroyed and my family, happened to be killed by the trolls and their monsters. I lost them, to the cold hands of death, sometimes, I wished I was there to save them! But the deed had been done. The trolls King, became the ruler of my kingdom with his ogre's as bodyguards to him, but now, I believe, 'The prophecy!' It's real, you are now here your majesty. I welcome you once again!" Hayden had concluded in his thoughts, nothing made sense and he was also confused about the whole thing, and whenever he asked for answers, they would call him their Majesty when he was just an ordinary man who made games for a living. "I'm sorry about that! You must have passed through hell when you lost them?" Hayden quickly sympathizes with him. "Not to worry, I'm totally fine with it, as a matter of fact, I have learned to live with it. And of course, it doesn't matters anymore I'm good with everything now!," he replied Hayden smiling. "You still haven't talked about my family?"

"Yeah, he hasn't," Sam walked in though the side path leading to the front direction of the house. "When I was about to bring you along side with your family, I was attacked by the King troll servants I had to use my last travel sand to transport the both of us here. So probably, your family is still with the King in his kingdom. And the only way to extricate them, is if you could 'Take the kingdom back!"....

I can't settle down like this, I have to do something about this!" He placed his two hands on the chair and tried to help himself up, but as he tried harder to get up his feet, he fell to the floor, he wasn't ready to just give up yet, so then again, he attempted it again and again until he finally got up, Sam and Anthony offered their help to him, but he immediately declined their offer. "Leave me alone! You didn't help my family when you had the chance to do that, and now, you suddenly want to help me? 'No, you can't, I'll go after them by myself even if I don't make it out alive!"

At first, they all were confused about which colour of the scrap of paper they should select. Emily held the hand of Raymond when he was to pick the chit randomly. She guided him that choosing something at random might put them in a precarious situation. Subsequently, then she exercised her brain and recalled that each colour was associated with a certain meaning. Therefore she should be very careful about picking the one among them.

He made it such that they could sleep undisturbed for a little bit longer. He was aware that their lives were likely to get more challenging in the days ahead.On the other hand, he was certain that the four of them could overcome any difficulty that they encountered together.

    As soon as the barbarous attack occurred in their city, the officials of the government sprang into action and quickly launched search and rescue operations in an effort to forestall any more damage that might have been caused by the attack. They met disappointment when their modern arms all failed before their enemies' ancient weapons.Any group that was dispatched to put a halt to them was ruthlessly eliminated. The government did not appear to be making any progress in finding a solution to stop this destruction. They were afraid if they were not stopped sooner it would not take much time to devastate this entire beautiful city. Seeing the situation getting worse a select group of wealthy and prominent people managed to get themselves and their families to safety by escaping the city by plane. This action increased the fear among the ordinary citizens.The common people were infuriated by this matter, and they looked to a creator god in the hopes that it would save them. What to tal

    Hayden was getting ready for work in the early morning hours when he received the call. He got the news over the phone that some aliens belonging to some medieval age had invaded the city and were on a mission to destroy everything in it. Nobody knew where they came from, but it was clear that they did not have the welfare of the city in mind when they arrived, and nobody could explain why. Hayden was unable to believe what he had just heard at that moment, he was under the impression that someone was playing a cruel prank on him, so he immediately hung up the phone. He had the suspicion that the day in question would turn out to be one of the most significant days of his life, and he knew that he could not afford to be late for work. However, he made the decision that he would only consume something during the breakfast that was served in the office. At the same moment, Emily came down the stairs weeping and pleaded with her father not to leave the house for any reason. She broke the

    At that very moment, Raymond stopped when he got the sensation that something unfair was taking place with him and that his father was breaching his commitment regardless of the circumstances. In addition to that, he was furious with his mother at that precise moment. At that time, it appeared as though she had no regard for him and his feelings at all. Plus she was acting like a Lady who was concerned with the entire world but her son. He kept his profile very low that day throughout the evening and remained confined in his room. He got the impression that up until this point, all he had been clinging to was a misguided belief that his parents loved him more than anything else in the world. Eventually, after everything, Raymond decided that he would not communicate with his parents in a straight manner anymore then. Throughout the entirety of the dining room, he maintained his silence and barely spoke to any of the members of his family as well who were parents his greatest rivals at

I wanted to gain access to one of the staff member's offices, I'm sorry for the inconvenience caused by me," the person yelled from the outside and left before he could respond. Subsequently, after the interruptions, Hayden desired to have some time to himself in the room to concentrate on his work. As a result, he crept inside his room quite quietly. He was considering the various options available to him to complete the challenging and one-of-a-kind game in the next 48 hours. However, he was well aware that it was virtually impossible to produce some amazing work in two days at any cost to rescue the company and the jobs of a large number of employees, including himself.He was confident that he would be offered a second job in a short period, but he was concerned about the other people working there.

    A loud voice yelling from behind them. It seemed like a female's voice. Hayden and the boss immediately waited and turned to see who it was, because had remembered telling everyone to meet him in the meeting hall room, so he wondered who the unknown person was. "Hannah!!!,''Both of them spoke in unions with each other. "I'm so glad I met you sir, i was looking for you, to inform you about the call that came across the office today. The person claimed to be a staff at joint venture gamersBlurb of this country.

I need to be with the others, I will explain everything there" he gave a quick response to her and immediately turned towards the place he used while coming the first time, Hayden and the staff woman tagged alongside him.
