i woke up gasping and sweating. "man, that was a terrible dream, which is even more rare than regular dreams. anyway Wix! wake up! we're leaving straight away!" i shouted. Wix flew up from under the covers of my blanket and groggily said while yawning "it's early Jake, why can't we just rest til this afternoon?" "because, if i use my powers a bit, i just looked at the time, and it seems to be...1:00 am! man, we slept for a long time." i said grabbing Wix quickly waking her up and stuffing her in my jacket's pocket. "alright, time to meet him." i said to myself. i put on my cloak and headed out the door. "first i need to stretch for a bit. i don't want to go straight there." i thought. the village seemed quiet and peaceful. i was walking around town minding my own business and buying certain items that may prove useful for in the future. "ah, step right up! we've got some lovely Rever Fruits! they'll heal just about any injury, illness, or even sometimes deadly wounds!" a market salesman was going on about some sort wonder fruit around the village. "come on, come on, it's not expensive at all! just 100 currency!...please? we'll take any kind of currency you've got! just.." the guy was begging for change. it suddenly hit me for the first time, that, this town, was poor. i finally realized that all around me there were people in tattered clothes, and hobos and even more sick and injured people, who just couldn't afford anything really. "no wonder the prices here are low, they can't even afford paying taxes." i thought to myself. i shrugged it off and went to buy that fruit. the man selling them was so gracious he was about to grab my hand and kiss it. "no thanks, i'm just here for the fruit, i'll be leaving town soon anyway." i said, i had changed my voice to be a bit darker than it originally was. i was trying to make sure no one could recognize me by either, voice, or appearance.

while wondering the rest of the village just before i was about to buy my last item, some guy came over and pulled my hood down from my cloak revealing myself. everyone stopped and suddenly gave me the looks i was getting when i first arrived. "see? he is a human!" the guy said. he had really pointy elf ears, and is skin was a bit gray. "guards, kill him." i backed up shocked, i hadn't done anything, and yet here they were attacking me for no reason. "hey i don't want to cause any trouble now." i said sticking me hands up. "you humans, you're so wicked and pathetic, trying to deceive us!" the guy shouted. his "guards" were two homeless men with pitchforks and were so terrified i could see their bones rattling. "look, i'll be leaving now." i looked over to the stand i was just at, i was about to take the item i purchased and had left some of my money behind. "you can keep the change." i told the man behind the stand. i was backing up towards the entrance of the village. "look, i really don't want to hurt anybody." i told the elf man. "LIES! HUMANS ARE FILTH WHO LIE AND PUNISH THE INNOCENT!" he screamed at me. i stopped and sighed. "well, if you want me to be evil." i said smiling wickedly. "then that can be arranged." i snapped my fingers and everyone in the village was suddenly in the desert with me hundreds of miles away from their homes. "wha- what happened? how did you?" the elf guy asked. i laughed "don't worry, that's my little secret, besides, if i bombed your village with all of you in it, i wouldn't have witnesses to know about the...3...2...1!" suddenly a huge explosion erupted in the background. "ah, well have fun rebuilding your home from scratch." i said waving goodbye and turning to walk away. "WAIT! HOW DARE YOU!" the elf man said. "we...we were-" he began, but i interrupted saying "yeah, yeah, let me guess? your entire village was robbed of almost everything you had by some humans? and that you were struggling to survive? did i get that right? some sort cliche story..." "you!" the elf man shouted. "i know now! you had a bounty on your head! some people were asking around for you!" one of the villagers shouted. "bounty!?" i asked. "yeah, i also hear stories of how he's saved villages, but that can't be right! he just doomed ours!" another villager cried. i laughed again "man, i really am complicated, aren't i? i haven't laughed this good, since i found out about DBZ abridged memes. hoo." Wix flew out and said "what are you doing!? whose side are you on anyway?"

"no ones. that's all there is to it. i do what i want. no one controls me, nor do i work on a side. i am the one who stays neutral, remember?" i told Wix. "but, you've never destroyed peoples home, their lives!" Wix argued. "but i have. remember Aito? remember Akio? Akio was as good as broken when he found out he wasn't some special hero, and i wasn't some villain." i shot back. "but..." Wix said. "no buts, besides it's about time we met up wit Akio, i hear he's been training." i said. Wix raised her teeny eyebrow and asked "when did you hear that?" "just a hunch, i guess." i waved to the villages, and suddenly they were transported away and i closed my eyes. "time to head to where the beginning ended, the place i died." i thought.

the villagers were teleported to the same spot their village was, except when they got there, everything had been remodeled and fixed up. everyone was stunned, because they thought it had blown up. (which it did, but Jake actually while talking had used his powers to re build everything he could from far away.) and the villagers continued on with their lives.
