Lying inside an MRI machine, was nervous and slightly scared inside the round and magnificent tube.

 Just beside the room stood two men in lab coats. 

 There were men dressed in military uniforms and holding submachine guns.

  “Are you ready?” one of the doctors asked through the mic.

 “Do it.” the boy replied with a resolute tone. 

 The doctor nodded and pushed a button and the MRI machine began to give a low humming sound.

 Suddenly, the boy felt a sharp pain in his head, which made him scream in agony. He struggled to break free, but he was restricted. After a few seconds, the noise died down.
 
 Suddenly, an alarm began to blare and all the monitors displayed warning and error messages. The men were all shocked, and the uniformed men all cocked their guns and pointed them at the MRI machine. 


 The normal MRI machine began to glow and melt. One could tell that something was burning it.


 Suddenly, it exploded, sending the parts flying everywhere. Some even broke through the glass pane and hit some of the uniformed men.



 There was smoke everywhere and the men all stood up and looked in the direction of the MRI room. As the smoke cleared, a pair of red, cold, and burning eyes opened up and stared at them, sending shivers down their spines.

 Will Leo overcome the principalities he faces with himself and be the hero he wishes to be, or will he succumb to the ugliness and rage inside him?

The Crimson Phoenix.

Walking down a dark path, Leo could barely see anything. The place was so dark, the darkness could almost be felt physically. 


"Hello… Anyone here?" Leo shouted as he kept walking down the darkness. He was unaware of where he was or how he got there, or where he was going. Suddenly, a light appeared behind him and illuminated the place slightly and Leo began to feel a wave of heat. 


He looked behind him and he saw a round entrance. Beyond it, were lots of flames. Leo took a few steps back but the entrance began to close in on him. Before he knew it, he was surrounded by enormous flames. Everywhere around him was fire and nothing else. 


"What the hell, where am I? Is this hell?" Leo asked himself. He was surprised by what he was seeing before him. He tried to remember how he got here. 


"I was fighting a giant chimpanzee and I… blacked out? No way. I killed it!" he remembered glimpses of his past but he was totally unaware of what was before him and how he even got there. 


The mystery of the Phoenix and a Dragon.
