Chapter 65: Awakening Chaos
Previously:

Keriax: *flaps wings, sending Travis flying* You don't know when to die, do you?

Travis: *Now heavily bruised and bleeding, stands up and casts acid bolt at Keriax* Nope.

Keriax: *dodges the acid bolt* I'm getting bored with you. *picks Travis up and squeezes him tightly* You were fun. *throws Travis to the ground* Much more fun than the previous adventurer who attempted to claim the crown, but like all games this one must end too. *raises a massive foot above Travis* Goodbye... mortal. *brings foot down*

Travis: Hell... *falls unconscious just before Keriax's foot smashes him*

*Travis' Mind*

Travis: *opens his eyes to see nothing but white* Am... Am I dead? Is this Heaven? *gets up and looks around*

Si' Var: *standing behind Travis* Nope.

Travis: *turns around to face Si' Var* Oh, you're here. This must be Hell...

Si' Var: Hey! Is that any way to speak to a crazy chaos mage spirit living inside you?

Travis: Well... now that you mention it...

Si' Var: =D

Travis: Yes.

Si' Var: <_< Forget it. I'll just let you die...

Travis: You mean I'm not dead?! :D

Si' Var: Not yet. You have about two seconds before you're smashed into the ground.

Travis: TWO SECONDS!? O_O

Si' Var: Here, that's roughly equal to... umm... thirty minutes.

Travis: Where's here?

Si' Var: Your demented mind. *dodges a floating penguin¿*

Travis: Wait a sec! I can't die! The ri-

Si' Var: Those rings won't keep you alive. The only reason you're still alive is because you're extremely lucky and Ssraxx favors you. However, not even luck or the gods can save somebody in your position.

Travis: *Has a shocked look on his face* So I'm... I'm really gonna die?

Si' Var: Hold on. I never said you couldn't be saved, I just said you have run out of luck and Ssraxx can't help you in such your current situation. I can save you.

Travis: What?!

Si' Var: I will help you gain control of your chaos powers.

Travis: But, I thought I wasn't strong enough.

Si' Var: Actually, I'm not sure if you are or not. I just had better things to do.

Travis: You live in my insane mind! What could possibly be better than helping me!?

Si' Var: Sleeping. Also, your subconcious is the best TV _ever_.

Travis: You're a prick...

Si' Var: Yes, I know. Now... ONTO THE TRAINING!

*Push it to the Limit*

Si' var: *eyes glowing purple while tapdancing on Travis' head* FoCuS! FoCuS hArD! FoCuS tHe EmOtIoN iN yOuR hEaRt InIo AN AURA OF PURE HATE!

Travis: You're not helping. *struggling as a flickering purple aura begins to surround him.*

Si' var: I'm a motivational speaker, essentially. Who said I was supposed to help?

Travis: Eeeeeeergh... *concentrating* >_<

Si' var: YeS! yEs! PUSH IT TO THE LIMIT!

Travis: ... Is this a bad time to mention that I utterly, utterly hate that song when I'm trying to concentrate?

Si' var: I KNOW! :D

*25 minutes and much random training later*

Si' var: Think like Superman firing his heat vision, only with CHAOTICNESS!

Travis: ENOUGH ALREADYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

Si' Var: *cough* Knew you could do it. *puts out the fire on his head*

Travis: *is surrounded by a strong purple aura* HoLy !@#!.

Si' var: And our time here is up. Good luck!

Travis: Yo'UrE aN aSsHoLe.

Si' var: I learned from the best, as did you!

Travis: WaIt, YoU dOn'T mEaN...?!

Si' var: Quiet! That's enough random foreshadowing to throw off the readers. Now, get out there and KICK THAT DRAGON'S ASS! *is wearing a mini-skirt and waving pom poms*

Travis: O_o ThAt Is NoT rIgHt...

*flash*

Keriax: *turns his head just as his foot hits the ground* Hmmm. Interesting... *is looking at Travis who is now several yards away*

Travis: *Looks back at Keriax as his wounds begin regenerating* i WiLl CrUsH yOu, LiZaRd!
