The man looked Bennett up and down before he nodded with a approving smile.

"No wonder Tuk gave you my eyes, you have potential. Beast Warrior cla.s.s with the Inherited Skill- Nature's Gift." he said, taking a step towards Ben.

Ben instinctively took a step back, trying to maintain the distance between them.

'This man doesn't seem hostile but I can't sense him at all. Even my eyes can't see through him.' Ben kept his guard up. He compared this man to Green, he was unable to see through either of them.

The man's smile grew bigger, "Of course you can't see through me and you're right. I mean you no harm. In fact I only want to help you."

"Now why would a stranger want to help me?" Ben asked as he took another step back. His back hit the cave wall and he wasn't able to back up another further.

The man had an amused expression on his face, "Stranger? How can we be strangers? I'm part of you. Literally."

"What the h.e.l.l are you talking about?" Ben's voice was starting to rise. This man was talking bulls.h.i.+t.

'Part of me? How the h.e.l.l is he part of me?'

"Come on Ben, you're smart. Figure it out." the man looked at him expectedly. Seeing that Ben just continued to stare at him he let out a long sign, "Your eyes Ben. They use to be my eyes."

Ben looked as though someone had hit on the head with a bat.

"Y-you're eye?" reaching up and touching his face.

"Yes my eyes. Don't worry I am already dead. What you are talking to is just a sliver of my soul I left attached to my eyes before I died." the man seemed to be trying to calm Ben down.

Ben looked at the man in absolute shock.

'How many more bombs did this b.a.s.t.a.r.d plan to drop!'

"Okay okay okay. Time out." Ben raised his hand, telling him to stop. "So these Mekata Eyes are yours. But you're dead. I'm talking to a dead person whose eyes I've stolen. Just when this new world was starting to make sense. Great."

Ben was trying to get his mind straight. Since this new world came, Ben had been talking everything in stride. It was simple to him, kill and become stronger. Become stronger to find parents. Zombies? He had seen tons of movies about them. Monsters? It was like being in a fantasy game.

But talking to a dead guy that eyes you were now your eyes? Seemed to be his breaking point.

"Right except for one thing. You didn't steal my eyes. I gave them to you." the golden man seemed to enjoying Ben's slight mental breakdown.

"Gave them to me?"

"Yes, well not directly. I gave them to a close friend of mine to give to someone he deemed worthy, he picked you. I must give kudos to old Tuk, you are a great choice. You even have the lightning element as your innate element." The man once again nodded his head towards Ben in approval.

Taking a deep breath Ben steadied himself.

"Can you tell me from the beginning so I understand it better."

The man's mood seemed to become serious as he gave a solemn nod.

"I was born on the planet Mekka, home to the Mekata race. The Mekata race had always boasted about it's ocular power, and for good reason. Our eyes were a gift from our G.o.d that we wors.h.i.+pped. The powers our eyes had varied greatly but were almost always powerful. They let us be almost unmatched throughout the universe. I wasn't born so lucky. My eyes didn't have any power, no mind control to teleporting, nothing. My family was embarra.s.sed of me and I was shunned by my race and family." pausing the man seemed to be lost in his memories.

"I left my planet and searched for a way to activate my eyes power. For years, I fought battles and entered forbidden places, nearly losing my life more times than I can count. Though my eyes powers still weren't activated, I still become a powerful fighter. I found an ancient scroll in a forbidden temple that mentioned how dragon blood can activate any hidden potential in a body."

Looking straight at Ben the man continued, "One thing you must know is that the Dragon race is extremely powerful and they don't take kindly to people killing their kin for their bodies. The entire race has been known to chase down anyone who kills their kind. Even with knowing this, I still decided to kill a dragon."

Ben was shocked at the b.a.l.l.s this guy had. Dragons were all mighty beings that looked down on mortals and could kill them if they breathed too hard.

'Definitely crazy.' Ben concluded.

Giving a slight smile, "Maybe Ben, but fortune favours the bold."

'He can read my thoughts?!'

Ignoring Ben the man continued, "My luck was pretty good as I found a young lightning dragon on a uninhabited planet. He seemed to be searching for rare minerals to help his evolution in the future. Seeing this chance I attacked. Even though this dragon was young, it was still a formidable opponent. The battle lasted almost an entire day before I was finally able to kill it. But before I could celebrate, a dark dragon came. Things looked bleak for me but I still fought. With a stroke of luck I was able to kill the dark dragon but I was critically injured. Grabbing both the dark dragon and lightning dragons corpses I started to drink their blood essence. The pain that I felt is impossible to describe, you thought your element awakening was painful? Couldn't even be compared to one another."

Ben gave an involuntary shudder, the pain his elemental awakening caused him had him on the brink of collapse.

"But luckily I survived through it and my eyes finally awakened. As you know, each eye controls an element, lightning for left and darkness for right. Control is the wrong word. We are able to become lightning and darkness, our bodies become the embodiment of these elements. Complete control. But that is only the beginning. The dragon blood affected my body and I gained both dragons bloodlines. These allowed me to have an extremely tough body and transform myself into a dragon. Though it took me years and years to perfect this ability, it allowed me to stand at the peak of the universe."

The man's face shone with pride, his name was once known by everyone. He was feared and respected.

"Of course the Dragon race was mad and demanded my head, there was little they could do because of my strength. I returned to my planet, welcomed with open arms and praises. Of course it didn't last. The four highest ranking elders on our planet were jealous at my strength and that jealousy corrupted their minds, turning them against their own people. The contacted 4 races; Arch Demon, Dragon, Phoenix and the Human Alliance. As long as they agreed to hand over a precious bloodline of their respected race, the elders were going to poison our G.o.d and let them invade our planets."

Even though the golden man was just a sliver of a soul, Ben could feel his boiling anger towards these elders.

"By poisoning our G.o.d, our eyes powers wouldn't work. Our people were slaughtered like sheep. They killed them and took their eyes hoping to acquire our bloodline. Seeing this my people slashed their own eyes, ruining them so the b.a.s.t.a.r.ds wouldn't desecrate their bloodline. Seeing my race had no hope, I slaughtered my way out. Killing thousands of those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. I escaped to my friend, Tuk, who in which I gave my eyes to before killing myself."

With the story ending, the man stared into s.p.a.ce. Anger, sadness, grief all flashed across his face.

He then looked at Ben, "You have acquired my eyes, with these eyes you have a responsibility."
