Chapter 254: [Welcome Home]
I fired off other lasers and I was starting to lose count of the splitting metal golems. I was trying to buy more time for my seventh to recharge while I was trying to back up at the same time. The problem was I had got a new ray, but the new Fear and Charm ray were doing nothing, these things were just mindless drones.
"Finally!" I shouted as I fired into the mass, then turning and floating as fast as I could away.

Oh shit! There was a lot of space between me and the red barrier, but there was no magic circle this time. I could see the sky start to light up and then I noticed the red barrier looked like it was going into the ground. I tried to move faster, the first of eight would impact on the far side from my judgment, so I should have time to make it across the twenty-meter gap between me and the barrier.
The rod plunged into the at a way too fast speed to even count, MACH 10 plus at least. For an entire moment that lasted just under one second, there was nothing and I was almost there with the golems far behind me. Then It happens, all hell broke loose.
The ground exploded into waves, tearing the landscape apart behind me. The destruction caught up with me, and I was slapped by an acre of flying grass out of the range of the spell. I was able to catch myself, but I whirled back around and rushed back trying to get the golem back in my vision.
Golems were popping up from molehills everywhere around me, and the ground in front of me was still getting hit by rod after rod. Each one was spaced with time for maximum damage to happen and everything had settled. After the fifth rod, they were too far down for me to claim with me Negative Energy Eyebeam, so I turned away and focused on the sea of golems.
I commanded the undead golems, which was weird to think about, something that was never alive was now undead, and I controlled them to reform into one single golem. They swarmed on my command, and slowly started to rebuild into a six-meter tall version of themselves. Then I got them to make a place for me to tuck into.
The golem opened up its chest like a large mouth, and I floated in, turning to face out the chest. The maw closed around me, and then the metal golem reshaped the inside of its body. It closed in tight to make me comfortable and made holes for my eyestalks to poke out of in the front and back.
I couldn't control the golem-like a MAS, it was more like having a partner to help me. I would call him My Big Friendly Giant, just because I could remember loving the movie. That part of my life was weird to think about after spending so much more time inside Second Life and Reborn. If I really thought about it, my twenty-two years in my mortal shell were just a pin drop in the years I have spent as a Spark in the virtual world.
The spell was done, and the ground was back to normal as if nothing had ever happened. All the golems were gone besides the ones I controlled. A massive set of doors appeared, but they were filled with a bright white light, but there was no improvement to my Mobile Lair Creation bar.
Frustrated, I commanded The Big Friendly Giant to proceed through the gate. The moment I entered the light, I was burned from existence, oops wrong door. That was my thought, but something else happened.

The last message pulled at my chest, and I grabbed for my heart and blinked. I was staring at my own hand, and there was that star tattoo on my hand between my thumb and pointer that Hyde always bugged me about. Memories didn't pour in, they came in like heartbeats, pulsing through my head.
I was in a forest, and there was a large pool of water that led off into a small stream that had a path running along with it. I couldn't see father from where I was, but I could see a tall white mountain that stretched far about the clouds and my view. I looked down, and then behind me to realize that I was at the very start of the path, and it ran around the pond.
I sat down, and then I laid down flat on my back. I just wanted to stare up into the blue sky for a little bit, I just needed to take it at the moment. Countless games and this was the end game goal, the ultimate destination, and I was here. The place that I had already sent so many different women and girls; it was just surreal, and I knew it was temporary, but that just meant I enjoyed it that much more.
I got up and started down the path, walking around the pond, and then I started up the stream that flowed towards the mountain. This might be the ultimate place to be, but it looked like I was going to have a long walk from here to the mountain. I would have to have a talk with the guy that thought this up!
My personal joke cheered me up, and the forest was just about to break up ahead. I was no longer an ugly eye, I was me, like real sandy blonde hair, kept short and a mess, not completely out of shape body. I was even in my white T-shirt and faded blue jeans, looking like a mess, with style!
When I reached the end of the forest, I looked out on the landscape and my eyes were almost ripped out of my head.
