Why was he here? He had told himself he wouldn't come back to a place like this, a place that reminded him of that man. The last time he was here, he thought he had found solace, he allowed a man to decapitate him so he would be free of the Way of the Warrior tournament. Yet, here he was, sitting in another Lobby, a participant in another deadly game with stakes higher than the Way of the Warrior tournament could ever hope to achieve. A part of some cosmic being's team, aiming to gain points for some silly game those in power were known to play. Oh, Alphonse knew that he could turn away and ignore this - but there was a mission that continued to draw him forward. He now stood within the cafe of the Lobby, an ornate room with foods that spanned multiverses and times. A man across the room was busy filling his table repeatedly with food, which vanished down his gullet almost as soon as it arrived. Many fighters were fascinated by the sight, and truth be told, Alphonse wondered where it went. Since he had been here, he had met a [b]Combustion Maven[/b], a [b]Psiconic[/b], three [b]Members of the Resistance[/b], and finally, someone who had stored themselves away when a strange power flowed into existence here just moments ago. A [b]Forgotten[/b]. They identified themselves as members of his team, all employed by the same cosmic being. Were there truly no limits to how many members a team could field? Letting his chi flow freely around him, Alphonse was able to detect people and things within the Lobby. The light blue power saturated everything, before sucking back and returning back to him. --- The Members of the Resistance stood on the other side of the cafe, silently talking among themselves, when Worren spoke out, motioning towards a hooded figure walking through the door. [color=ed1c24][b]"I've faced him before, nasty bugger." [/b][/color] --- The Forgotten appeared quietly in his room, sliding his scythe across the air before him. Dust-like particles formed and the cafeteria was shown, particularly the amethyst exuding man that was clearly kin - a Dreamer - Enemy.
