chapter 6 challenge

I take take the key and proceed to the next stage of the puzzle. Taking on this challenge from Malakai has brought a new sense of hope, that my gaol is closer than I have ever dreams of. I will make sure that I free everyone off his clatches people need freedom not to live in captivity.

I use the key to unlock a door,and I enter a new chamber. The room is filled with a thick,eerie fog that makes it difficult to see more than a few feet on front of me.

I hope winning this will give me advatage of freeing Frank.

I moved forward trying to get the feel of the room, as I move deeper into the chamber.

I hear a voice whispering in the fog, the voice os soft and seductive. But it sends shivers down my spine.

I look around fear creeping in but I have to be tough if I'll survive this place, the voice present me with a choice.

" Do you want to follow the path of darkness or the path of light? Each path will lead to different outcomes, but you will have to find what outcomes you'll faced with when you get there.

I know this is his way to see where my mind is, if I choose light he'll know I am not for his plans but if I choose darkness it might lead to bad outcomes for me. For this plan to work I have to prove myself to him that I am his alley.

"I choose darkness," I said.whatever the outcome I am ready , it's not only for me but everything on earth that deserves to live free.

"Good choice, captive you may proceed forward. Then suddenly the fog clears I am alone in the room , and a door opens I hesitate but I then walk through the door. My heart pounding it felt like it was about to jump out of my chest.

I proceed down the path of darkness, I feel a sense of foreboding. The more I go further I start seeing the fog again and gets even thicker with each step, and the air grows colder. I can't shake the feeling that I am being watched by unseen eyes.

I start feeling a presents, the a figure appears not far a few feet away I stop, it then comes closer. My heart beating like drums in my ears, as it comes closer I look intently but I don't utter a word.

It's Malakai, his eyes gleaming with malevolence.

"Welcome, to my domain, "he said. His voice dripping with sarcasm. "I see you've chosen the path of darkness m, how ... predictable."

He the laughs but I don't react to his actions, I stand and wait for him to make move.

"I will tell you one thing, the path of darkness leads to a terrible fate for you. You'll become a survant of the shadows," he said ." A pawn in my game of power and deception, But if you continue on this path there is no turning back."

I know what I got myself into I didn't think it will be an easy ride, I am not turning back. I say to myself.

"One last chance, if you change your mind , you can still choose the oath of light."he said."but if you continue down this path your mine for the rest of your life.

Even if I choose light now what makes me think he'll let me go just like that, I am not that stupid, he makes it sound like I have a choice the truth be told it's his game and it ends how he wants it to end.

"I am not changing my mind let's proceed.

"Go ahead little one your destiny awaits, I have a gift for you, he extends his hand to me to hand me something. I do the same and he puts something in my hand.

A bracelet, it's rough I look at it for a while and look at him

"Put it on, he said. I did as I was told and I continued on this uncertain destination he talk off.

As I proceed, I feel a dark energy coursing through my veins , my body begins to change, I sense a growing sharper strength increasing. I feel newfound power within myself, but it's power tainted by the darkness.

The fog lifted Malakai watches with approval as I undergo the transformation.

"Excellent."he says. Your becoming one of us, a survant of the shadows, bound to my will." He then reveals my purpose.

"You will serve me and carry out my plans,he said." You'll be my instrument of darkness"he says. " Together , well bring about a new era of dhadows and fear "

Despite my transformation I still feel a glimmer of resistance within myself. I will find a way to break out of Malakai's control and forge my own path.

I'll pretend I am serving him but secretly plot against him.

I use my newfound position to gather intelligence on Malakai's plans and operations I learned about his network of spies and informants, his hidden temples and secret rituals.

The very thing that feeds the cursed kingdom of Sambora.

I also begin to identify potential allies within Malakai's organization. I checked out those who are dissatisfied with Malakai's rules,those who are secretly working against him.

I know I am playing a very risky game , but to distroy him this needs to be done.

One day a message from an unknown ally came , cryptic message I didn't know what it meant for my future.

The message read, "meet me in the old windmill on the outskirts of town at midnight, come alone." I was sceptical about it, what if its Malakai's people I have to be careful how I handle this. I went to Frank told him , he didn't like the idea but promised to be my Lok out and my protector if something goes south on this meeting.
