Xellos blipped in and looked around. He dicided to go the easy way.

"Hello?" he called. His voice echoed off the walls of the hall. There wasn't much it in, anyways. There were twenty or so gargoyle statues lining the walls near the ceiling. I was hiding behind another statue, on of Ceipheed. There were no lights, only sunlight that poured in from the doorway. Xellos shrugged and teleported away. I looked on the other side of the Ceipheed statue and saw Xellos, snoozing gently against the back of a gargoyle. Soon, I heard footsteps. I looked over the top of my satue to see someone walking in. Filia. She stopped in the middle of the hall and looked at the piece of paper she was holding.

"Hello?" she called, like Xellos. "Hello? Anyone here?" That woke Xellos up. He looked around the gargoyle at Filia, and teleported down behind her. He floated silently above her back before tapping her on the shoulder. She whirled around. "What are you doing here?!?" Filia screamed at the ever- calm Mazoku. Xellos looked over at the enraged dragon.

"I'm in a contest," Xellos replied.

"Then what are you doing here? Wouldn't you be at your stupid contest?" Xellos pulled out a piece of paper and showed it to Filia. She gaped, slightly open mouthed at the letter, before dropping her own. Xellos scooped up Filia's letter before she could react.

"My, my, my! We're in the same contest!" he said happily.

"You signed me up, didn't you?!?" Filia yelled at him.

"Now, now, Fi-chan! You don't think I did a thing like that, do you?"

"YES I DO!!!!!!" Filia screamed. Her echoes seemed to shake the hall. I recoiled. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea? No, I needed a little break. See what other powers I could do... With a wave of me hand, the doors to the hall silently shut, but closed with a bang. Both of them jumped. "Oooh, this isn't good..."

"Just be happy that it's me verses any other-"

"HAPPY?!!? I'd rather do it with anyone else but you!!"

"I was going to say Mazoku."

"...Oh," Filia stuttered. Xellos was better then any other Mazoku. Filia blushed. I decided to cancel their little romantic moment. With another wave of my hand, torches long since aflame lit up. I quickly walked in front of the statue. "Who're you?"

"The person who sent you those letters." Filia snatched hers back.

"Who are you? Your name?"

"Names are unimportant. What is important is why you are here. You are here for a contest, I presume?" Filia snorted. Xellos let himself fly up, cross- legged, and layed his staff across his legs.

"What is the contest?" Xellos asked, putting Filia off-guard.

"YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE CONTEST IS?!?!" Filia screamed.

"I can't deny that I did sign up... but there's a great prize!" That did it. Filia blew.

"YOU NAMAGOMI MAZOKU IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Filia screamed. She grabbed her skirt.

"Now, now, we must stop behaving like children..." Filia leered on me.

"What do you mean 'acting like children'?!?!?"

"..."

"..."

"Well?" Filia demanded.

"Well, let's get this started!" I said, rubbing my hands together. "Switched races, coming right up!!" They both went white.

"What the-" The two disappeared in a flash of light.
