So it was to be split into three. Kyo,Claire,Twinkle and Katherine are blocked in a pitch black cavern, Relira and Seth fending off wave after wave of paper golems, and Bob, who is being dragged deeper into the abyss....

"ARRRGGGHHH!!!" Bob groaned in pain as he was dragged along the ground by the giant vine of an unknown plant. (It's been like this for half an hour, when is it going to stop?) Thought Bob, but just when he thought the last word, the vine came to a sudden halt, and flung Bob onto the ground. He decided to keep lying on the ground and looked at what was before him. And there it was, the most mystical creature he had ever seen. It was a thousand of thousand roots entangled in each other, and the vines seemed to go into a bottomless pit where return was definitly not allowed. In the "middle" of the roots that Bob saw, was a gigantic floating orb. It was silver, and transparent, it was like it was not there. The platform Bob was on was like a cresent moon jutting out of the ground. There were spiked vines like the one that carried Bob here, all over the place, jutting out of the ground unevenly. Bob was unsure of what to do, and decided to play dead. Then, there was a loud, regal voice, like it came from heaven, it said," Bob. We know you are not dead, arise." And as if invisible hands were pulling him up, he stood up, and stared at the silver ball hovering in the air.

"You know who i am... no?"

"The famed tree spirit, Arias, was it?"

"Good, Good, one of the seven would not be so... ill-informed."

"Che. I have nothing to do with the spirits, why is it you have called me?"

"I have called you... Boboccaslas of the axe-men, for you to aid me."

"In what? Hurry, my patience in this matter is running dry."

"Hah! You are in NO POSITION TO TALK LIKE THAT TO ME. MORTAL."
And then, many small vines grabbed his hands and legs and forced him to the ground.

"Now do you see my... power?"

"Just... tell -me what... you want." Groaned Bob, Struggling with the vines.

"Fine, i have called you here today for you to help me bring my dream to become a reality!"

"And this dream is?"

"A dream of the world, all together in peace, all plants and animals living in harmon-"

"And the humans?"

"Wiped off the face of the Ear-"

"I'll never do that!"

"I knew you would say that, but let me tell you the good thing. The man will be eradicated along with the rest of the mortals. Tell me Bob, why do you despise the man so much? Isn't it because he and his minions have killed all of your clansmen? Am i wrong?"

Bob winced as he thought of the past. Then he stared at the silver ball, and thought deeply what he should do. He grimaced in heavy thought, and the weight of the decision he was about to make was bringing him down.

"I have been," Arias continued, "Watching you the past years, the last man standing of the axe men, protectors of the trees. And i see that your personality changes oh so much when you are with the other... seven."

"I just want to.. fit in. With them, besides, my oh too serious normal self is waaay not my style, and come to think of it, my decision is NO. For my friends wouldn't like it very muc-"

"GWAHHAAHAHAHA!!!! YOU MORTALS REALLY ARE PREDICTABLE. I HAD THOUGHT YOU WOULD SAY THAT, AND NO MATTER. FOR YOU WILL DO WHAT I SAY."

"FAT CHANCE!" As Bob said this, he broke free of the vines in a flash of light, and was holding a gigantic double-handed axe, it was green, and had the pattern of a tree on each side.

"HAHAHA! YOU NEVER CEASE TO AMUSE ME, FINE. YOU THINK YOU CAN DEFEAT ME?
THE GREAT ARIAS? THE ONE YOU ARE SWORN TO PROTECT? NO CHANCE!"
