"Come on, Jace, you can do better than that." The tall, red headed Man loomed before the Master, a younger Master. Only about 15. "I'm sorry Master, but you're too strong..."
"Nonsense. You just don't want to hurt me."
The Master, Jace, swiped his hand through the air, and the memory faded. "Not what I was looking for." He grumbles as he can practically feel the soul of Adam draw nearer. "I'm so close..." He moved on his way, and another memory interrupted him.
"HOW COULD YOU!?" Jace cried at the Monstrosity before him that had claimed to have killed his Master. "I'll kill you!" He lunged, wielding the Rapier he had grown fond of. The Creature used It's thick arms to block each attack, and thrust it's massive left arm directly into Jace's chest. He went flying into a nearby Mountain. The Earth shook under the impact.
The Monster was a fake. It was just his Master in disguise, getting Jace to use the full extent of his power. Jace had been 17 at the time.
Jace shot from the Mountain side at the speed of light without his Rapier as he began pummeling blows at the Creature. It didn't appear as though Jace had arms, as they moved so fast, but this Creature blocked every blow, and dished out more pain than Jace could deliver. After every tactic, he could not even hit the Creature.
The Master waved this memory away. It was a distraction, and captivating. If he wasn't careful, he could get trapped here forever. He just needed to get to the right spot, and switch dimensions, grab Adam's Soul, reunite it with his Body, then find and kill Oros and Vex. "I need just a little more time..."
