It had been a month since Lou have been locked up. He had nothing to do but think about how to get his revenge over and over again. At this point it have been about two weeks since the servants have stopped giving him food and a week since the ninjas have stopped watching him due to exhaustion. It also marked nine days without having anything to eat because he ate all the wild grass in the dungeon has been eaten already. He persevered for one reason only and it was for revenge. Alas a few days has passed he felt very week and hungry as he struggled to reach the pond of water. Little did he know that he would fall in. He started to sink to the bottom. He felt like he wanted to rest, he felt comfortable as he closed his eyes. All of a sudden, he opened his eyes he remembered his girlfriend he felt anger and sadness. He was saddened to realize that he didn’t even know her name. He held his breath and then angled his self-upwards to swim to the surface. He then noticed something strange at the bottom of the pond it was a box glowing a faint red aura. He decided to go back to the surface first as he was running out of breath. He swam to the top, gathered air and went back down. After a couple of seconds, he obtained the box successfully and came back to the surface. He realized that the box stopped emitting the aura, however it was red. He opened the box carefully only to realize that there were two smaller boxes in the box. There were completely dry. A rectangular box and a circular box. He opened the rectangular box to find eight pills of eight different color each with a number written on it, the first pill was red, the second pill was white, the third pill was yellow, the fourth pill was blue, the fifth pill was pink, the sixth pill was a mixture of dark purple and black, the seventh pill had the most surprising look. It looked as if it was made of human skin. He realized that they smelled like herbs. Surely, they were edible he thought to himself. He decided to go by the order and took the red pill marked with the number 1. He took it and felt something warm inside his stomach and then his stomach felt as if something was eating him from the inside out. All of a sudden, he fainted. Now fast asleep. He had a dream he was being dragged in the dungeon and his girlfriend was being dragged out as she screamed, he escaped from the people dragging him only to find his girlfriend head on the floor. A sinister voice whispered you should have taken her. It happened over and over again until it felt as if he was going insane. He didn’t know how many times it happened he lost count after five thousand. Finally, he lost his reasoning he screamed out “I'll take it, I'll take all of my vengeance.” the voice turned into a kind sounding voice it said “good, take it all, don’t make the same mistake I made.” He was about to ask what happened but he woke up with tears on his face. He decided not to eat any more of the pills. He opened the circular box and something flew into his mind. He suddenly entered a space that had blue water as far as the eyes can see. He turned around only to come face to face with a black shiny stone, it cracked and a dark shadow figure with red eyes emerged from it. It started speaking in a menacing voice. “Let me take a look it said”. A golden orb emerged from the depts of the blue water. The figure stood there and looked at the orb intensely as Lou tried to speak unable to do so. The figure shouted out “child you are very lucky to have such a body or else you would have died; you are lucky that your body started healing itself a soon as it started getting hurt if not that pill would have made your body explode.”
