Yogensha: Now we must continue to the next step in the training. Now that your heart and mind are pure you can move on to controlling your inner light. To do this we must travel to the heart of the temple.
The pair continued deeper into the the depths of the temple. As they went further it seemed as though time itself was being rewound. The architecture and building materials were becoming older and older. It was a testament to the true age of this place. Had this cycle been going on over and over for this long?
Kouji: Yogensha.......if this fated cycle has been going on as long as this temple has stood.....then how can I bring it to an end?
Yogensha: Hmm.....you want to end the cycle my child? For that to happen.....not even I know. It is something that you alone as the child of light must find the answer. Here we are.
The pair came upon another room. This room was made entirely out of stone. It was circular with a domed top. In the center of the ceiling was a thin hole that extended all the way to the surface, allowing a beam of light to enter. The light focused down onto a pedestal in the center of the room with a crystal ball in the center which lit up like a light bulb.
Yogensha: This is the heart of our temple my child. That is the most sacred object in our religion. The Orb of Tomoshibi. This item is what will aid you in awakening your powers, and will accompany you on your journey. Go place your hands on it child.
Kouji obeyed the priest. He moved over to the pedestal and place his hand on the top of the crystal. Even without access to the light from above the crystal stayed lit. A surge of energy flowed into Kouji's body, it was truly incredible.
Yogensha: Do you feel it my child? That energy is the power of light. By touching the orb you are granted the ability to bend light to your will. Now we shall begin training on how to manipulate that light.

Bouken: "Man! This crap is boring! When is Kouj gonna get his ass back here?"
Muzai: "Relax Bouken, this is important."
Bouken: "Pssh! Remember sweet chee-.....I mean "Muzai", I ain't here for your saving the world business. I'm just here to explore. This shit is really slowing down my pace."
Muzai: "Be that as it may, you are still here with us."
Bouken: "Ya ya ya, I know. Don't ya worry babe, I ain't gonna leave you and Kouj. But I can't stand this temple anymore, it gives me the creeps. Why don't we save some time and get them supplies we need for the Doragon?"
Muzai: "Alright, thats a good idea. Kouji won't need us for a while, and this will make us useful. Lets go.
Muzai and Bouken left the temple and departed into the town. For a main city it didn't seem too populated. But there was something off......the people kept giving the pair odd looks.
Bouken: "The hell these guys starin at us for Muzai? I don't like how this looks."
Muzai: "They're probably just not accustomed to seeing many foreigners, relax."
They entered a mechanic shop and began searching for the items they needed. They brought them to the register and payed the clerk. The clerk didn't even say a word to them.
They walked out of the store.
Bouken: "What the hell?!"
A group of men were waiting for them, with assault rifles aimed at them.
Bouken: "Shit! What the hell is wrong with this place?!"
???????: "Now, now. No need to get out of sorts. You see, I'm the sheriff of this here city. You foreigners seem to have come at a strange time. Word is the Trinexus is back on the offensive. And I think you might just be their spies.
The mystery man crept through the crowd of armed men and stepped out in between the two groups. He was a tall and lanky person and sported a white suit with white cowboy boots and a brown cowboy hat. He was holding a lit cigarette in his mouth right underneath his bushy mustache.
???????: "Now see the only way for me to know you aren't a spy is for you and that gal to hand over whatever cash ya got on ya. Heh, that way we'll be sure."
The sound of the guns clicked as the crowd of men prepared to fire.
Bouken: "F*ck you you damn corrupt *******! I ain't givin you shit!"
Muzai: "Bouken! This isn't the time! Lets just do as he says!"
???????: "Heh, you should listen to that little missy friend. No need for nobody to die today."
Bouken tensed up in anger.
Bouken: "grrrr...........shit.........take it you bastard!"
Bouken reached into his pocket and tossed his cash onto the ground.
???????: "I knew you'd understand."
The Sheriff walked over to the pile of cash and picked it up.
???????: "Now I don't want no trouble from ya while you're here. Ya understand boy? But you seem like the hot-headed type of little shit who might just try to pull somethin'. So I'm gonna need to take a little collateral."
The man reached down to his hip and removed a white plated pistol from his holster. He took the gun by the barrel and swung it at Bouken's head. The butt of the gun smashed into Bouken's skull leaving a gash in his head and sending him to the floor.
???????: "Now to make sure you don't try to pull anything I'm gonna take little missy here. She'll make a damn nice maid."
Bouken's vision blurred as he laid, bloodied on the ground. As his vision faded the last thing he saw was Muzai being taken away by the man.
Bouken: "......shit......ugh....."

Yogensha: Now we must continue to the next step in the training. Now that your heart and mind are pure you can move on to controlling your inner light. To do this we must travel to the heart of the temple.
