A chaotic wasteland stretched all around them. The agonized screams of demons and who knows what other creature, pierced their ears as they floated off towards a speck of light in the distance. Passing by a large 4 legged demon whose body was sliced in half, the boy in a red plaid shirt said...
Sooo you excited about going to Aaa? I know she`s had you cooped up in here for the last 400 years... right?
The other boy who looked alot like the first, responded sarcasticaly, his black cloak whipping around him as they passed over a large group of demons milling about in a never-ending line...
I`m as excited as can be...
Suuuure you are... Teased the first boy as he flashed a fanged grin at his comrade. Who responded with a hint of anger in his voice...
Well what do you expect... You may have suffered through the Mushroom War but despite only seeing you for a couple of years altogether – mother still adores you... Whereas I was always here... Always ready to help her... And I`m worse than garbage in her eyes...
You know that`s not true... Denied the first boy as he looked back towards the mountain they had come from...
You know it is... So what should I expect? The regular vampires are bloodsuckers theme? Continued the cloaked vampire with interest...
No... Well mostly no... I`ve gotten us a pretty good reputation, if I do say so myself... Replied the first vampire, smirking with pride.
And how? Questioned the second...
The same way you could... Music... Was his simple response.
They actually appreciate music there? Well this might be interesting after all...
The first of the duo seemed happy that his companion had cheered up a bit. But now his interest was piqued...
And how`s your music nowadays? I know you probably haven`t been able to practice but still.. You were always awesome. You`re the reason I started playing...
Yeah and now the student has surpassed the master... Joked the second vampire as he brushed off some dust that fell on his black hair from a nearby volcano...
Well we could find out if thats true... We could jam a bit when we get to my house... Offered the first boy as he too brushed away some of the volcanic debris off of his midnight-blue hair...
... Maybe... You still have the family axe? Questioned his companion...
Yep and your idea to turn it into a bass was awesome... Was his reply only to receive a slight glare and look of surprise from his friend...
You actually turned it into a bass? I was just kidding Marshall! The black-haired boy said...
Oh don`t get all agitated... Even mom was alright with it... Was Marshall Lee`s non-chalant reply...
Well of course she was... It was you who turned it into an axe... Now if it had been me... I`d be a headless corpse... Reasoned the other vampire as they finally drew closer to the source of the light, which was revealed to be a portal swirling with blue and white energy...
Come on man you`re too hard on her... Said Marshall looking sadly at his friend.
Tell me that once you yourself beleive it... Was the vampire`s angry reply...
Marshall merely sighed in response noting they were now at the portal.
Good... I`m happy to leave this place... The brat will finally be out of her way... He continued darkly...
Wait you heard- Started Marshall with apprehension... But his companion interrupted him saying...
I didn`t have to... She never calls me by my name... Its either Marshall`s brother or the brat... 1000 years of doing nothing else than trying to help her... And this is what I get... Well fine... Despite all her "chaos" I think I`ve managed to refrain from being evil... You`re letters helped with that actually... He finished on a happier note...
I`m glad to hear that... Said Marshall as he punched his companion playfully in the shoulder...
...Despite what you might think Marshall... I don`t resent you. And I don`t blame you for being mother`s favourite... Finished the boy as he looked at his brother and smirked showing off his sharp fangs...
Thanks... Well... We`re here... Ready to face Aaa, Nexus? Questioned Marshall as he walked closer to the swirling entrance of the portal...
Quite... Hey Marshall? Said Nexus looking at his brother but staying away from the portal..
Yeah?
Your fiancee is in Aaa?
Ehh no... She`s still in the Vampire Kingdom... Was the Vampire King`s curt reply as a slight blush crept up his cheeks. Despite being engaged it was still strange to him when someone mentioned his... "betrothed"...
Ahhh I see... But then why are we going to Aaa? Came Nexus` question as if he already knew the answer...
Well I haven`t told my friends about this yet... Only you, mom and Elyna know about this. Explained his brother...
Friends?... Must be nice to have those... Muttered Nexus darkly only to look up at his brother and smirk saying... Just joking... But... It must, for real, be nice to have friends that aren`t demons... Those guys are just too crazy sometimes... Marshall laughed a bit at the sad truth in his brother`s words... The demons around here were pretty nuts...
Heh... Well there`s plenty of crazy in Aaa but... since you`ll be the second most powerful being in Aaa – I think you`ll have it under control...
Second most powerful? Questioned the black-haired vampire with interest...
Well after me of course... Replied Marshall smugly as he flashed his fangs at his brother.
... Yeah... Whatever helps you sleep at night... Was Nexus` reply as he quickly jumps into the portal...
Hey what? Nexus! Yelled Marshall as his brother dissapeared in the whirling colours of the portal...
