DURING THE TIME MATTHEW WAS UNCONSCIOUS…
Matthew: Mmm. Urgh. Uhh… Wha- Holy shit!
I woke up to my face right in front of lava. I jumped up onto my feet trying to get away from the lava but then I noticed something. I was standing on top of the lava and I wasn’t burning alive. This could only mean 1 thing.
Matthew: Ohh. I must be dreaming and this is what Wehttam picked out for me.
Wehttam: Correct Matthew!
Matthew: Ahh! Arceus Damnit Wehttam! Don’t startle me like that.
Wehttam: I apologize of the scaring of you my dear friend but nonetheless, you are correct.
Matthew: So why this place? I mean… Last time I was near lava, not a lot of good stuff happened.
Wehttam: While that is true, I felt as this still might make you feel comforted somehow.
Matthew: Well… The heat does feel good. For SOME reason but it does. So I’ll take your word for it.
Wehttam: I must say, I am glad that your face had stayed intact despite the damage you received from that monstrous monster.
Matthew: Ohh yea! My cheek! -feels my cheek- Wait. My cheek feels like nothing has happened to it.
Wehttam: But of course. This is a dream after all.
Matthew: Ahh. That does make sense. I suppose this will be the only place that my cheek will be intact and not scarred.
Wehttam: Indeed my companion. But there are other matters at hand that we must discuss.
Matthew: You’re right. That thing… Or us… Or whatever that was. Mattam.
Wehttam: Yes. I too have no clue how this happened.
Matthew: Wait. Wait. There are entities that invade people’s bodies with their soul and this has NEVER happened til now?!
Wehttam: I’m afraid so. But from this new experience, I do know 1 thing.
Matthew: And what’s that?
Wehttam: Our souls intertwined with each other.
Matthew: So basically… Our souls like fused?
Wehttam: Yes. For some reason, this event caused our souls to fuse into 1.
Matthew: Hmm. That explains why we were as 1 with my body. At least, it makes sense to me.
Wehttam: I apologize if I had made your friends uncomfortable or anything of the sort.
Matthew: No no. Don’t worry. It’s alright. I’d have to explain to them about you sooner or later anyways.
Wehttam: I suppose so. But still. This new phenomenon that occurred has caused me to become curious about it.
Matthew: Yea. Me too.
Matthew: Well…
Wehttam: Hmm? Do you have a theory as to why that happened?
Matthew: Somewhat. I remember calling you when everything was getting dicey but also at the same time, I… I…
Wehttam: You what?
Matthew: I didn’t wanna completely wanna go. I wanted to stay and fuck him up for trying to do something to Laura. And also messing up my face. And then that’s when, I guess, Mattam happened.
Wehttam: Wait. You say you called upon my name and yet you didn’t want to actually go away?
Matthew: Mhm. I was so full of rage.
Wehttam: I may have a theory on how Mattam was created then.
Matthew: Really? What is it?
Wehttam: I’m not sure if the anger has to do with it but you didn’t want to go or fully go, correct?
Matthew: Yes?
Wehttam: Hmm. Since you felt that way, the cross between our souls stopped midway and thus, we were both able to assume control of your body.
Matthew: Wow… That’s just crazy but… To be honest, it could be helpful.
Wehttam: True. It threw our enemy off guard and we were able to defeat his Pokemon.
Matthew: Looks like we got another useful transformation.
Wehttam: Yes but…
Matthew: But what?
Wehttam: Unlike me assuming control of your body, this transformation seems to drain the energy of our souls while were are formed as Mattam.
Matthew: Wait. Your energy isn’t drained when you normally take over?
Wehttam: It does but it takes a while for it to drain completely. Depending on what we are doing, we could stay in control for up to a week. But in this form, while we just found out about it, I would estimate that the time we could spend in that form is for maybe 12 hours. But unlike me, where you’d just regain control of your body-
Matthew: In this form, I’d have used all my energy as well and I’d lose consciousness. Of course. It makes sense now.
Wehttam: Yes. Since this was our 1st time being in this form, the energy must have been used up faster than we were used to.
Matthew: I was thinking the same thing. Well, I’m glad we got that sorted out. But there’s something else that’s been on my mind. What the hell was with our hair.
Wehttam: Matthew, I know you’ve been through a lot in these past couple of hours but I have the gray hair remember?
Matthew: You know, you don’t have to be a smartass about it. But yes. You’re right. It’s clear now. But why was our 1 eye red then?
Wehttam: That… is a question I can’t even come up with a reason for.
Matthew: Well, as long as it doesn’t hinder our ability to work together while we’re like that, then it doesn’t bother me.
Wehttam: Agreed.
Matthew: Still… I can’t believe Kiki…
Wehttam: I am sorry you lost a friend but she did die protecting the place she loved Matthew. I don’t think she would have it any other way.
Matthew: Yea… Yea. You’re right. You know, I just realized that I’ve been in here longer than usual.
Wehttam: Well, you literally did take a beating and also with everything about our souls being fused for the period of time, you’re out like a light in the real world.
Matthew: Yea. That must be ot. But still. I think I’m gonna try to go back to the real world.
Wehttam: Wait wait… Before you go, I need to ask you something.
Matthew: What is it?
Wehttam: That Laura girl. I know you like her and all and she’s most certainly a good friend but… is she really necessary to be here?
Matthew: What do you mean?
Wehttam: She almost cost you your life. I just don’t think we should have that kind of… distraction in this adventure of ours.
Matthew: She’s not a hindrance. She’s not a bad person to have on the team. Just because I like her doesn’t mean she should be booted out of here. That’s messed up dude.
Wehttam: I was just making sure you knew about my worried.
Matthew: Well next time you have a worry about that, keep it to yourself, would ya?
Wehttam: … If that is what you wish for.
Matthew: You’d probably do the same for Florinia if she were here. Right Wehttam?
Wehttam: Well… I mean-
Matthew: Exactly. Anyways… I’ll see you next time something weird and wonky happens. Night?
Wehttam: Farewell friend.
I laid back down onto the lava and closed my eyes. In no time at all, I was fast asleep. I wasn’t sure if I heard this correctly, but I swore before falling fully asleep, I heard a voice say “you’re gonna have a nice surprise when you wake up.”
