Questers Sanct. Of Light Ch10

Okay, due to popular demand, I'm back.
I am trying something new with italics, and tell me if it helps.
So here is Ch.10.
Time stood still in the Time Sphere as Brandon and Draco faced each other, each waiting for the other to make a move. Brandon planned his attack, and before he could, an explosion knocked him and Draco off their feet. Brandon looked for where the explosion had come from, and he saw a huge hole in the Time Sphere.
Poe, Miki, and Jona stood up and drew their weapons. From the hole, came 6 figures. Poe thought the first one looked familiar, but couldn’t tell. The first figures stepped forward and introduced himself.
“My name is, Zaylo,” said the figure, “and this is Kiba, my apprentice,” he added, as another figure walked to Zaylo’s side.
“Hmmph, these guys look weak Master Zaylo,” sneered Kiba.
Poe and the others shifted uncomfortably. Brandon, the type not to stand around, sped toward Zaylo. Brandon threw a fury of attacks, but before the moves can touch Zaylo, Kiba stepped in, and blocked all the attacks. Brandon, using Dark Sight, snuck behind Kiba and used Assassinate. Kiba easily dodged all three attacks.
“Heh, you think you can take me on?” Kiba laughed.
What Kiba didn’t know was that there was a 4th move to Assassinate, and it had to be timed carefully. As Kiba laughed, Brandon got in behind Kiba and was about to drive his dagger in Kiba’s heart, but a minion threw itself between Brandon and Kiba, and was blown into pieces by Brandon’s attack.
Kiba jumped back in alarm, and leaped to Zaylo’s side.
“Do not under estimate them Kiba,” said Zaylo, “your carelessness nearly cost your life.”
“Sorry Master,” said Kiba, “I won’t make that mistake again.”
Brandon stepped back next to his friends and asked, “What do you guys want?”
Zaylo cleared his throat and said, “We just want you not to interfere with us while we destroy everything that is good.”
“What!?” said Poe, “So you’re the one that wants to destroy the Sanctuary of Light?”
“Hmm, how’d you know?” asked Zaylo, who was quite taken aback that his plans were known.
“I dreamed about it,” said Poe, lifting his weapon slightly.
“Ahhh, so you’re the Dreamer,” said Zaylo, “as expected.”
Poe and the others moved toward Zaylo’s crew, but then Zaylo said, “Well, I guess we are done here.” He turned to Poe and looked at him for a second and then disappeared into the air.
Kite waited for a second, and then closed the hole with magic. Kite turned toward Poe and said, “You knew about what he was going to do all along?”
“Yeah, I just pieced it together,” said Poe.
“Pieced what together?” everyone asked.
“My very first dream,” answered Poe.
Poe sat down on a chair and began telling his dream.
“I was 5 when I had this dream,” started Poe, “I had it almost every week until my father died.”
“The day before my father died, I had a dream that the village had caught on fire and he was burned.”
“I had thought this was just a dream, until I found my father dead and the village burned.”
“But that isn’t the main point, there is something much more.”
“There was a staircase in my dream that led from my room to another place.”
“I didn’t pay attention to it much, cause I thought it was a dream.”
Poe stopped to think.
“I just realized something,” said Poe suddenly.
“What?” everyone asked, waiting for the answer.
“The minions had looked through my house more carefully than the other houses,” said Poe, who was getting excited.
“And the only person who didn’t survive was my father!”
“Isn’t that a bad thing?” asked Jona.
“It actually might not, cause I think I just found the Sanctuary of Light.”
Poe grabbed his stuff and headed for the exit.
“Wait,” said Kite, “you guys aren’t ready.”
“Let Draco head over there first and we can watch his progress through the magic mirror.”
“But Kite,” said Poe, but Draco cut him off.
“I don’t want you guys to go in unprepared,” Draco said, “I’ll go in and check it out, don’t worry about me.”
“Ugh, fine,” said Poe, “but just make it back alive alright?”
“Hey, don’t worry,” said Draco with a reassuring smile.
Draco walked to the exit and disappeared. Poe looked concerned and Miki asked, “Why the look Poe, Draco is the best.”
“Well, there is something I didn’t tell him,” said Poe.
“What?” everyone asked.
“Draco is going to die.”
