Everything went black for Johnny. He awoke in a room of darkness, last remembering that his crystal had released its trapped spirit. He began to walked towards the light he saw ahead, yet he could tell that he wasn't getting closer at all with any step he took. "Aw man, I'm getting hungry." said Johnny as his stomach growled. "Wish I knew where I was..." he muttered as he sat down, tired from walking so much.

"You there boy!", called a mysterious and unknown voice from nowhere. " What has happened to me? Why am I trapped in this unknown strange world of yours in this crystal that holds my spirit trapped within!?" Shouted the voice.

"Wait, wait, wait." answered Johnny as he got back up and began looking around in circles searching for the voice. "First things first, where am I?"

"Fear not boy, for nothing has happened to you yet. I have merely taken and brought you here into my mind. You are still safe at where you last were, but your mind is now within the crystal."

"Well then..." said Johnny, still trying to figure out what to say next." So who are you?" he asked.

"Do not stall boy!" the voice shouted as the ground beneath Johnny's feet began to shake. "I have answered your question, now answer mine as you said before."

"Don't be such a baby." sighed Johnny. "Well I guess fair is fair. My answer is I don't know okay. I mean I'm only 10 years-old for crying out loud. As far as I know, you guys have been here before I was born so I really can't answer your question on how you got here and as for why you're trapped, I don't know the answer to that either." Johnny said while scratching his head. "Listen, while we're still talking and all, would you mind telling me how this is even possible? Because as far I know, there hasn't been anything about a talking Energon."

"Energon?" the voice replied.

Johnny could tell the voice had no clue, so he decided to tell him the history of Energon and everything he knew about it. After several minutes of listening, the voice said "You have been very helpful boy. So from what you've told me... It seems you and I are destined to be partners in this world of Energon and that I must fight alongside you. I have a good feeling about you boy, I feel as if you will be the one who will help me discover the secrets to this game, and then just maybe, I might be able to return back to my true home. Now boy, what is your name or would you prefer I address you by that?"

"I'd rather not be called boy or anything like that because it's kinda annoying. Anyways my name is Johnny, Johnny Richards. What's yours?"

Just then, a red light appeared out of no where in front of Johnny. The red light quickly shaped itself into a figure, a human figure. The empty room itself also switched to a wide land full of fields, trees, rooms, and many other glorious things to behold. The human figured appeared to be dressed in a red and gold warrior's armor with a cape coming out of it. His wrists, belt, and ankles where equipped with magic bracelets filled with magic gems. On his right arm, he carried a shield with a sword inserted into it. He had brown hair and blue eyes. He was quite tall actually, much taller than Johnny by a long shot. "My name is Dratz and I am one of the top warriors from where I come from, but alas I am only an apprentice. As you can see, I'm a warrior, but also a spell caster" he said with a smile. " I don't quite remember the rest of my personal life other than for what I've told you. I do somewhat remember what my world was like, but not much.."

"So partner, can I go back home now because I'm really hungry." asked Johnny as his tummy rumbled with the strength of a dragon's roar.

"Yes of course." replied Dratz. With one snap of his fingers, Johnny was sent back to his body and the shop.

"Oh thank goodness Johnny! You were acting strange for quite a while son." said Mr.Richard with a glad expression on his face.

"Well I think that's enough excitement for one day, now lets go home everyone." Mrs.Richard said, now relieved that her son had returned to normal.

As the Richards left the store, they waved goodbye to Mr.Johnson. "I expect great things from that boy..." he said to himself alone watching their car leave the parking lot.

After arriving back home, Johnny asked his parents, "Dad, Mom can I go by myself to the Energon battle Center it's not too late?".

"Well I don't know son, I mean after that little incident back there you think you can handle it alone?" replied Mr.Richards

"Of course, I might be hungry but there's nothing that a good battle won't fix." answered Johnny.

"Well its not just my decision. What do you do think Dear?" said Mr.Richards as he looked at his wife for a second opinion. She nodded in approval. "Alright I guess but make sure you call us when you're done okay."

"Sure thing." said Johnny with a big grin.

Johnny then began walking to the local Energon Battle Center with Dratz hanging around his neck as a necklace."So what's the plan Johnny?", asked Dratz as his spirit appeared to Johnny and only Johnny.

"We're heading to the Energon Battle Center Dratz. I hear the champion is making a stop there and that he might even battle a few fans." replied Johnny as he made his way past a car towards the end of the street. "I think maybe if we battle you might get some of your memories back. I've heard of people who do familiar things and then wham! They get their memory back. That is if you're up for it Dratz. You don't have to if you don't want to right now but it's just an idea."

"Well I suppose this would be a good opportunity to test my skills again, after all its been a while since I've fought." said Dratz as he continued floating next to Johnny.

"Great, I knew you would and look..." Johnny paused as he pointed the Energon Battle Center. "we're here."
