I wake up startled. I grip my head with my claws. It was just a dream, nothing to worry about. It was just a dream. I stand up. I took out a cigarette. I lit a fire in my hand. I take it. I stare out of the window. Corona. How I've missed it. However, it will all be destroyed. I have no choice. Such a pity but I know he wants me to obliterate this place one and for all.

He can be demanding. He can be a conqueror. He wants me to obliterate Corona. A win-win. I get my revenge and he gets...something. Yeah, I really don't know what he gets out of this, but who cares. 

Dad walked in on me. His eyes widen when he sees me smoking.

"Eh, I'm technically over eighty." I shrug throwing it away.

Dad sits down. He touches my claw. He examines it.

"You've changed." He said.

"For the better." I say. 

"I still see my boy." He said standing up.

"I see power." I say.

I looked at the time.

"Uh, Dad, we're gonna have to put this conversation at hold. I have a call." I say.

I snapped my figures. A shadow wrapped around Dad and pulls him out. I just needed him to leave. I take out my staff. I lay it on the floor. The thing glowed. Black light exited from it. I didn't see him fully. All I saw was an eye.

"So Varian how does it feel to be in Corona?" He asked.

"Eh not getting too attached." I shrug. 

"The party will soon begin. Don't fail me or else I'll destroy your every molecule." He said.

I nod. I do a bow. He never lays an empty threat out.
