Chapter 4: Dream of Destiny
I found myself in a dark, empty space. I was floating. It took me a moment to get my bearings, but I came to the conclusion that I was dreaming once again. However, there was something different this time. Everything was clear. It was unbelievable, it was so real. It all felt and looked real.
Suddenly I was blinded. A bright flash of light filled the space. It was brighter then anything I had ever seen. The light dimmed, and standing before me were six silhouettes. Each of them looked slightly different. The first one was a man about five feet tall, and next to him was a massive face surrounded by fire. The second shadow was short and fat, surrounding him were hundreds of platters of food. The shadow ate and ate and ate, but his hunger never subsided. The third was a man surrounded by animals. Birds, dogs, lizards, and other assorted creatures were with him. The fourth was a man sitting down with his legs crossed, and hundreds of moaning ghosts flew around him and landed in his hands. The fifth was a massive muscular man, he had three gruesome faces, six massive arms, and a giant tail that wrapped around him. Finally was the sixth, he was different then the others. Rather then standing with the others before me, he floated above them all. Beams of light shone behind him, and on his back was a sword and a ring staff. But the oddest part of this shape were the ten tails that sprouted behind him, each that were glowing red from pure malice. My eyes flashed from figure to figure, trying to decipher what this meant, until I finally saw what connected these figures. They all had my rinnegan eyes.
I shook for a moment, either from pure excitement, or unimaginable fear. I looked at the sixth shadow once more. His appearance was that of a god. Then suddenly the sixth shadow moved, a hand motion to the others. And suddenly, everything was dark again, and I was...falling! I screamed, I was falling into an endless black abyss.
A bright flash of light broke my fall, and I was now standing. I looked upon a giant tower. From what I could see, it had 6 floors, and the roof looked like a massive ceremonial site. I was going to enter, but then I looked to the sides of the castle. On the right side was the demonic statue of the outer path, and it stood taller then the tower, with his face looking down on the roof. To the left side was the giant face that was with the first shadow, but now I could see it clearly. It was now much taller, with it's mouth being just as tall as the tower. It too had my rinnegan eyes. It wore a massive white robe that covered most of it's body and was partially zipped in the front. On top of it's head was a crown, and on the crown was the kanji for "King". It also had what appeared to be two eyelashes that looped over the face's head and went partially down it's back. It too looked down on the ceremonial site on top of the tower.
I shook my head and proceeded into the structure through two large doors. I suddenly appeared inside a massive room where everything was on fire. I had walked into hell itself. In the center of the room was the first silhouette. But like his companion, I could see him clearly now. He had three spikes jutting out of his ears, and three studs going diagonally across his cheek on each side, meeting with another stud on his nose. He also had studs running down his arms and on his body. As I looked from afar he began speaking with two other men. I did not hear what he said, but it was clear that he was questioning them, and they refused to answer. Suddenly the face from outside appeared behind him. The man grabbed the two other men by the throats and lifted them into the air. He asked them his question again. Then two hand shaped tounges came out of the mouth of the face and it grabbed a hold of the tounges of the two men. One of the men refused to answer. His tounge was ripped out and he disapeared. The other was more compliant and was spared. The face disipeared and the man looked at me.
"Remember what you have seen and continue to the next realm. So say Jigokudo, the Naraka Path," the man commanded. I knodded in agreement and the room went dark. A staircase appeared before me and I walked up them. Once again I entered a strange new place. It looked like a baren field. No crops grew from this farmland, the water from the river had gone dry, and in the center of the room was the second silhouette. I could see him clearly. He had one thin metal spike in each ear, and on each cheak was a cone shaped spike. Below his lip were several small spikes all in a row. And on his nose were two small studs. Like the one before, studs covered his body. Suddenly, hundreds of ninja appeared around him, each performed hand seals and fired off a jutsu of every nature type and shape. The man in the center simply raised his hands and all of the ninjutsu turned to chakra and was eaten by the man. The ninja then all disipeared. He turned to face me.
"Remember what you saw here for as long as you live, so say Gakido, the Preta Path," he said, and again I was directed to a staircase and into a new realm. I was in a gracy field, and in the center of the field was the third shadow. A man with a small stud at the forehead, and two on the bottoms of both cheeks. He had two small studs under each eye connected to bars that went to his nose. He performed the handsigns for a sumoning jutsu and suddenly a multitude of giant animals appeared. All of them were giants and had rinnegan eyes.
"Hold those handsigns to your heart and proceed, so command chikushodo, the Animal Path," and again I was directed to a set of stairs, and again I found myself in a grassy field. But this time the fourth silhouette stood in the center. He stood over a man on his knees. His hand was on the other man's head. With a swift motion he pulled his hand away and ripped the soul out of the man, who dropped dead and disipeared. The man looked at me.
"Gain all knowlege from your foes with this. Proceed to the next realm, so say Ningendo, the Human Path," and again I was walking up a flight of stairs. Naraka, Preta, animal, human? The realms of reincarnation? The realm of suffering, the realm of starving ghosts, the realm of animal servitude, and the realm of man.
"What does all this mean?" I questioned as I entered the fifth realm. I appeared inside a massive fortress. I was surrounded by machines of war, and before me was the fifth shadow. The chins of all three heads featured a large round stud, and on the side of each cheak were two smaller studs. a round rod began at the top of each nose and went to the bottom. His head had several cone shaped studs. His body was covered in studs and had many mechanical joints. Sudenly his body opened up in many sections, releasing misiles in all directions, his limbs flew off and flew like rockets and returned to him. He slamed through walls with incredible streangth and speed. Then his scalp opened up and began colecting energy, and finally released the energy in a massive explosion. He returned to the center and focused on me.
"Be in awe of the power I have shown you. So say Shurado, the Asura Path," and once more I was lead up a set of stairs. This time I knew for sure who I was to meet. The one that stood above the others, in the realm of Heavenly gods! I ran into the last room. I was in what appeared to be a holy place. And in the center was...wait. That is not the figure I saw in the first vision!
"He was a tall orange haired man with two spikes below his lower lip. He had six brackets on the edge of each ear, and a round peg going through each ear. On his nose he had three small studs pointing out each side of his nose. Around his neck was a silver necklace and his body was covered in small studs. As I looked, I kept getting this strange feeling that I have seen this man before. I pictured him without the piercings and he looked even more familiar. It all came crashing down when I pictured him without rinnegan.
"Yahiko?" I inquired aloud.
"I am Tendo, the Deva Path," the man replied without flinching, "Watch what I do, listen to what I say. You shall do as I do." He held out his arms, "Shinra Tensei." All of a sudden, everything was repeled away. I watched intently. After a few seconds, he held one hand forward and declared, "Bansho Ten'in," and he pulled me closer. "These abilities can not be used in succesion. There is a minimum of five seconds between uses. However if you use it on a large scale, the time between will increase. Do you understand?" I knodded in response. "I have one more ability, but you will witness that at the highest realm. Remember what you have seen, and what I have shown you. So command the god-like path, Tendo," he instructed before disipearing, leaving a golden staircase of light in front of me. The path behind me now completely gone. I moved forward. Up the flight of stairs. To the ceremonial site at the top.
