Chapter Seven

It had been so long since Alex had been in Middang3ard that she hardly recognized it. She was captivated by the skies, the first ones she had ever seen, in passing as she was taken to Middang3ard.

In many ways, Middang3ard felt more like home than Earth ever could since she’d seen Middang3ard in VR for such a long time. Until she’d gotten her eyes, Middang3ard had been all she’d ever seen, other than her textbooks and holographic lessons.

This was what was at stake.

Vardis had tried to pose his offer as having Alex destroy a place she didn’t care about, but he hadn’t known that Alex felt more at home on Middang3ard than anywhere else.

Alex quickly pushed her feelings aside. Nostalgia wasn’t going to help her. What was important now was getting to Vardis as fast as possible. She drove her anchor forward to push Chine to maximum speed.

It was obvious that Vardis was going to make it to the volcano before they did; nothing could be done about that. But Vardis was crafty, so there was going to be something waiting for them when they arrived.

Alex ran through the different scenarios she could anticipate Vardis hitting her with. There was telekinetic energy. Then there was telepathy, either Vardis trying to influence her thoughts and perspective, or attempting to envelop her in a full-on psychic attack, pulling at her memories to confuse her about reality.

Any of those options, Alex felt like she could handle. She’d already experienced them firsthand.

She tried to lock onto Vardis’ energy. Even from so far away, she could sense it. He was heading to the volcano. From what she could tell, he hadn’t arrived yet. Hopefully, that meant he wouldn’t be able to set up a good defense.

Even though Vardis was insane, there was something almost admirable about how much he was willing to throw away, to sacrifice for his single-minded desire to kill the Dark One. Alex wondered if she’d ever be capable of that kind of conviction.

Then she wondered whether she would ever want that kind of resolute determination, the ability to kill billions of people. She would never do anything like that, but she was starting to see why someone would.

They were coming up on the volcano.

It sat in the middle of an island that was mostly covered with jungle. The island was the size of a small country, and there didn’t seem to be any fauna on it. The volcano looked angry, ready to explode at any given moment. Smoke plumed from the open chasm in the fiery mountain.

As Chine neared the island, Roy asked, “This is where we’re supposed to be fighting?”

Alex didn’t bother answering. She was still wondering why Vardis hadn’t started using the shard yet. There was no way they’d beaten him to the island. She could feel his energy lighting up the area. “Yeah, something is going to happen here.”

Rather than go to the mouth of the volcano, Alex decided to land Chine at its base. She and Roy got off the dragon and stared at the volcano they were going to have to scale.
