Lost and Forgotten

"Do you really believe you could save them?" I could hear a mysterious female voice that seems to echo through my mind.

"Hello?! Please help me!" I said choking through the tears, a mans voice began

"Do you want to be strong?"

"Of course I do! Please! Let me save them, please!" I begged for the unknown voices to help.

"Would you help them even at the expense of your very humanity" this time it was what seemed to be a child, though I couldn't tell. "Anything! Please!" and then there was silence, "Hello!?" they finally responded.

"Very well, when we deem it worthy you shall wield the unparalleled strength and skill of a Forgotten Lord however beware the beast within you, do not let it take hold" the man said

"Thank y-" I was interrupted

"Show us if you deserve such generosity. Prove if you are worthy of this power!!" they all said in unison and as they finished talking I appeared on the surface no hole in sight and my brother gone. I've been given another chance. I felt invigorated, as though my body was as light as a feather. I rushed to the charred remains of my village, running faster than I ever have and as I do a massive spider ran toward you massive black bladed legs with deep red eyes and a purple and black pattern on its back, and as though on instinct as it rushed me, I charged at it and slid beneath it forcing my "sword" up into its stomach, it was enough to pierce the beast but not to kill it, it went down to eat me, its maw big enough to eat me whole, I grabbed ahold of its fangs and to my surprise was able to hold it back, then I remembered what the voices said, is this the power of the "Forgotten Lord"? and what's the "beast within"? while those thoughts crossed my mind I felt something, deep within my subconscious, something feral, and angry. I was able to push it back as the spider was about to become to much for me. I managed to break off one of the fangs and you plunged it into its eye, as it backed off from pain I picked up my "sword" and plunged it deep into the beasts skull killing it. My hands were trembling, I had never felt that sense of power before, and I were afraid, afraid of that addicting strength but my worries and fear were broken by an ear shattering scream, that voice sounded familiar, I rushed into the village, but immediately puked at the sight of it. There were flames everywhere, charred remains, and corpses that were cut in two with there guts pouring out. I didn't realize it before but the spiders poison got onto my hands and was causing a searing pain, then I noticed there was fire was coming from the hounds, their paws left a flaming foot print after every step, they came rushing towards me. They were about waist height with fur as black as the abyss, three of them rushed me, I made quick work of the first one but the other two came at me at once, one from the front and the other from the back, the second hound I managed to kill without injury, I tried to dodge the last but its claws shredded through my back causing me to fall into the dirt as the hound went down on me I pushed my hands to it's throat to hold it back. With breath like rancid meat, it's vicious teeth were mere inches from my face. Using one arm to hold it back the best I could I felt around trying to find a weapon. Eventually I got a grip on a nearby branch and stabbed the mutt through the eye, it held on for a moment before collapsing on top on me. I pushed him off and wiped the drool off before rushing to my house while trying to ignore the pain that was consuming me.
