Chapter 12 - New me (Part 2)

"You two look exactly like you belong in the military." Pasha said with a smile on his face.

I looked at Nyx's uniform which was exactly the same as mine with the exception of having silver buttons instead of gold buttons, I looked at Pasha's uniform who had the same uniform as me, but his looked used.

"Have you fought a real battle yet or has it been training so far?" I asked.

"Only training so far, since Kalmar hasn't been in a war."

"Cmon let me show you to the training grounds." Pasha quickly said after answering my question.

***

We arrived at the training grounds, it was bright as it was still early in the morning, but I could see in the distance what Im assuming is the Kalmar army training.

"Pasha is that the army training in the distance?" Nyx asked.

Pasha looked back at me and Nyx and answered with a simple. "Yea."

"But you two are not going to be training with them since you two are you're own division even though you two are only two for now."

I could hear someone in the distance calling for Pasha to get over to training, I assumed it was Pasha's other subordinate and Pasha quickly said. "I need to go train with my division, Folke you are this division captain so you and Nyx can train together for now."

Pasha then began walking over to his own division.

Nyx looked at me and asked. "Let's have a practice match captain." Nyx then walked a bit away and then turned around to face me.

"If you want to lose that badly." I looked at Nyx with determined eyes and stood in a offensive position.

Nyx quickly charged towards me attempting to hit my stomach, but I quickly dodge it by dodging to the side I try to hit Nyx from the side, but she deflects it it quickly and kicks me in the side with her left leg, but I manage to grab on to her leg and lift her up with it and slam her down into the ground with it.

"Do you give up Nyx?"

Nyx groaned and replied with a. "Yes I give up."

I held out my hand for Nyx to help her get up and she grabbed it and stood up.

Nyx dusted herself off and looked at me again and said. "Rematch."

"You just wanna practice until you win don't you?" I asked looking at Nyx.

Nyx replied with. "Maybe."

For the next few hours until Nyx gave up we practiced against each other the entire time until Nyx gave up on trying to defeat me due to th efact I never got tired.

"Laying on the ground isn't going to help you beat me Nyx."

"I know, but neither is actually trying to beat you."

"I think it's time for you to take a break then, go drink some water."

But as Nyx was leaving I felt a tap on my shoulder, I looked around and saw Pasha with the entire army behind him and his subordinates. "Nade do you wanna have a practice match with me? First to lay on the ground loses?"

I looked at Pasha who seemed excited to have a practice match with me. "Sure let's have a practice match Pasha."

Me and Pasha walked a little away from each other and stared each other down. "Pasha please don't hold back against me, my body can take it."

Pasha gave me a quick nod and charged towards me I charged back and we met in a clash in the middel, we were evenly matched, but Pasha quickly got the upperhand with a kick to my right leg, I fell a little forward towards Pasha, but I manage to catch myself and push Pasha a little back, but as he got his hand free he quickly hit me in the head causing me to stumble back too.

"You're good at this Pasha." I quickly said recovering.

"So are you, but I will win this." Pasha charged quickly at me with speed I was barely able to block with, and a kick to the side causing me to barely stand.

But with one final sprint towards me and a kick to my left leg I fell down on the ground with Pasha winning the practice match.

Pasha held out his hand for me to help me get up so I quickly took his hand and stood, I chuckled slightly and said. "You're really good at this Pasha." With Pasha chuckling a little back. "So are you Nade."

***

I was lying in bed again unable to fall asleep, I wondered will Makoto show up again? Or was it really just a stream, well the only reason was to fall asleep and see if I see him again so I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

"Did you wish to see me?"

I got startled by Makoto who was right up in my face, even close up he looked exactly like, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between me and him even if I had a year to do so.

"Not really I just wanted to see if it would happen again."

"I can appear anytime I want, even outside your dream you know, others just won't be able to see me, unless I possess my body that you're currently borrowing."

I decided to ignore the borrowing part since I didn't really care about what he said, but I had two questions now. "I got two questions I want to ask."

"And I may have two answers."

"You said borrow, but does that mean you can take over whenever you want to?" I asked with as stern of a voice I could.

"I can take over my own body whenever I want to of course, I thought that was obvious."

It wasn't a clear answer, but I will take it as a yes since he's been referring to my body as his own this entire time.

"My second question is, why do you say you're the real one even though you can't remember your own name?"

He looked at me and then smiled with a creepy smile and said.
