The Dream World was silent.A cold wind moved through the broken streets. clouds covered the sky.Aarav stood in the middle of the empty city, his heart beating fast.The glowing mark on his hand pulsed with energy.
The mysterious Blue Shadow stood beside him."This is where the real test begins," the shadow said.
Suddenly—A loud roar echoed across the sky.the ground began to shake.
Aarav looked up.From the darkness of the ruined buildings…The Night Hunter slowly appeared.its glowing red eyes stared directly at Aarav.Each step it took cracked the ground.
Aarav felt fear rising inside him "That thing… it's back," he whispered.Blue Shadow spoke calmly."It was always coming for you."
The Night Hunter suddenly roared and charged toward Aarav at terrifying speed.
"Focus on the mark!" Blue Shadow shouted.
Aarav raised his hand.The mark began glowing brighter and brighter.Energy started flowing through his entire body.The Night Hunter jumped high into the air and attacked.
At the last second—Aarav released the energy.A massive blue shockwave exploded from his hand.BOOM!
The blast threw the Night Hunter across the street.The ground cracked.Dust filled the air.
For a moment… everything became quiet.Aarav slowly lowered his hand."I… I did that?" he said in shock.But suddenly—The dust cleared.The Night Hunter stood up again.Angrier than before."You cannot defeat the darkness, Dream Walker," a deep voice echoed.The sky suddenly turned completely black.A giant shadow appeared behind the clouds.Two enormous red eyes opened in the darkness.Even the Blue Shadow stepped back."No… it's him," the shadow whispered.
Aarav looked up at the sky."Who is that?"
The voice thundered across the Dream World.
"I am the ruler of nightmares."I am the Shadow King."Lightning flashed across the sky.The Shadow King's voice echoed again.
"And now… I know you exist, Dream Walker."
Aarav clenched his fists.
The real war had just begun.
