There it was: Proof of the Supernatural's existence shoved onto his face. Daniel stepped back, then gave a slight bow; when he lifted his face up again, the eyes were shining with wonder.

His next words were, [color=#FFD700]"I must apologize for the disrespect I've shown towards you and your... employees, then. My only excuse was that I didn't know that I had reasons to trust that I had been taken here for a good reason. Nevertheless, I'm convinced. So, we're technically dreaming, yet also not, and we're here to fill in for a Chosen One who threw aside his duty."[/color]

A pause as he mused, [color=#FFD700]"When does the world end? Do we have enough time to prepare? How can we keep in contact with each other once we are back in the waking world?"[/color]

And of course, he had to ask, [color=#FFD700]"Do we get cool powers? I have a Dad and Mom I have to protect once the world ends."[/color]

Then the full implications sank into Daniel's mind as he realized what he had said, what the mysterious old man had said. [i]The World was ending.[/i] It's not necessarily the planet, but definitely civilization. What came after would be anarchy and lawlessness, fighting for food supplies and power. The loss of knowledge and learning because people were too busy surviving to preserve it. And all because a Chosen One ran away... or joined the bad guys.

His eyes blazed with fury, confirming others' suspicions that he was quick to go for the direct, violent solution as he said, [color=#FFD700]"Where can we find this Ex-Hero? If he's one of the bad guys now, can we kill -"[/color]

He corrected himself to avoid coming off as a psycho from a horror movie, [color=#FFD700]"I mean, beat him up and lock him away in some prison dimension? And how do any cool powers we get work?"[/color]
