"Because D would not allow it. He has powers far beyond anything Alex has. He could bring down a meteor from space, slow time to a crawl, shape the Earth with his mind, and more. He is the most powerful Master of Magic I have ever met," Hoods said. This raised some questions. How old was Hoods? How many Master of Magics have there been?
Whether the girls asked him these questions or not, he would continue the story. The girls suddenly found themselves, their young Master, and D in a dungeon.
"W-who are you?" the six year old, Alex asked.
"..."
"W-where am I?"
"..."
"Why aren't you saying anything!?" the boy cried. "Where's my mommy and daddy? I want my mommy and daddy!" he whimpered. He continued to cry, pleading for his mother and father, before he was silenced by D delivering a kick to the boy's cheek, sending him into the wall.
"Be quiet."
"W-why did you-AHH!" Alex screamed as D placed his foot on the boy, pushing down on the child, crushing him. "STOP! IT HURTS!" he begged.
"Does it? Don't worry. I'm sure you'll get used to it soon enough," D replied, smiling as he gave the boy a kick in the ribs, before turning to the door. "You'll be sleeping here tonight. If you need to pee or poop, do it in the corner. If you get hungry, eat a few bugs or rats running around here. If not, they might just eat you. In fact, I'm counting on it," laughed the older man as the door closed behind him, leaving the boy to drown in his own tears.
"Alex was only six when he began training. D would have gotten to him sooner, if I did not convince the boy to experience a few years of joy with his parents. I wonder if such an act only caused more pain?" Hoods sighed. "To the rest of the world, Alex was only gone for about ten years. In D's dungeon, he was locked away for about a hundred years. This stuff...The pain in the beginning. This is the easy part," the blue orb sighed as the world began to fast forward itself.
The girls watched as the world was put on fast forward. As the world moved around them, they could spy parts of it, and saw their 'Master' being beaten into the ground, devouring the rats and bugs, being stabbed, bruised, D cleaning the dungeon of Alex and the animals' feces every month or so, and Alex being thrown against the wall. By the end of the first year, Alex awoke to see his parents hung up corpses.
"All of this had only one point. To push Alex to his limit. The Master of Magic, all of them, from beginning to last, all had one important trait. This trait, was how they found their future student. You'll soon see what the trait is," Hoods explained, letting the girls watch as the years passed by, their Master being beaten and tortured.

Alex's hands flared to life with a bright fire as Arkurus left, already throwing fireballs at the golems as they attacked. As for D, the old man sighed and dodged a golem, and teleported out of the way of another. "A shame. I was hoping for a less violent measure," the older man sighed as he dodged another golem, and appeared beside Alex, who continued to throw balls of fire at the beasts.

There is no such thing as a being of pure evil or pure good. We are all created with an equal chance of good or of evil.
