A/N: I hate writers block!!! Sorry my net wasn`t working.
Jasmine stormed through the halls of the castle. "Where are they?!" she scowled as she continued to look for Lief and Barda.
Kree chirped on her shoulder and rustled his feathers.
"Your right Kree I didn`t check the library." Jasmine took off for the library in a hurry.
As she approached the door she felt her face get hot from anger. She opened the door to see Barda and a strange young man sitting at one of the tables, "Where is Lief?"
"Right here."
She spun around to see Lief and another strange young man behind him. "What is going on and who are these two?"
The boy with Lief walked passed her and toward the other boy, "I`m Black and this is my brother Red." he said as he sat next to his brother, "We`re here to ask for your help."
"Our help?" Barda asked
Jasmine sat down next to Lief and stared at the two boys and the odd marks on their faces, they have the same marks she thought.
Red explained, "We come from another world called Dark Law. Our world is considered the world between worlds."
"What does that have to do with us?" Jasmine asked
"Well our friend, Magic told us of these three heros who killed a shadow demon...I think you call it the Shadow Lord." Black said, "In our world there is a place like your Shadow Lands called the Dark Lands and the demon has retreated there."
"Why do you need our help?" asked Lief
"The shadow demon is trying to take our world over and our magic isn`t strong enough to defeat it." a shadow grew on Blacks` face as he talked, "A few of us went to the border to see if there was some way we could kill it, for we thought it was like any other demon.
"We had set up a camp for the night and StoneCrystle and I went ahead into the Death.....I mean Dark Lands to scout out the area...."
"With out telling any of us!" Red interrupted
"Yes and it was a mistake we.....I`ll never make again." Black said in a small voice
"What happened?" Jasmine asked
Black sat quiet for a time. "Well we let our guards down and that bastard took StoneCrystle. I followed only to come back half alive."
Jasmine sat and looked at the two brothers and saw the same pain Lief, Barda and herself felt. "I will help anyway I can."
"I already said I will help and I mean it" Leif said
"If it means destroying the Shadow Lord once and for all I too will help." said Barda, "Now how do we get to this Dark Law of yours?"
"With this." Red said holding up a small card., "But we must go outside to open it."
As they walked out Jasmine watched Black, for after he had told them a little about what happened to him, he seemed lost in his thoughts.
"Now what?" Barda asked
Red walked over to his brothers side, "You ready?"
"Ya"
They both took the card in hand and said together, "It takes two to open the door home and two we are, same of blood and same of oath, together we open the Twin Gate home."
Jasmine had to shad her eyes for the light that shown from the card. She opened her eyes as the light faded and saw a huge gate with its doors wide open.
"Go through before it closes." Red shouted.
Lief, Barda and Jasmine went through the gate with the brothers right behind them. Jasmine turned to see the gate doors close and the gate vanish before her eyes.
She looked around and saw strange wire walls, lamps that didn`t have to be lit by a torch, hard rock roads and metal buildings, but what made her most uncomfortable was it was so dark.
"Welcome to Tech City, our home, or in other words the home of forgotten kids." Red said.
"Why is it called the home of forgotten kids?" Lief asked
Black answered in a small voice, "Cause everyone here has been forgotten by their friends and family."
That must be hard, Jasmine thought as Red and Black led them to something called The Pub.
"Why is everyone looking ant me so strangely?" Barda asked as they entered The Pub.
"Cause your an Ahkahe or an adult." Red said stifling a laugh, "Mic is the only Ahkaha that lives here."
Barda just nodded feeling quite odd in the room filled of children and young adults.
They sat down at a table close to what looked like a stage for a play.
"Sing Black!" cried a voice from the crowed, which got everyone chanting, "Sing, we want a song!"
Black stood, "All right you win, I give." he nudged Red as he got up and the two went up to the stage.
Red went behind a drum set as Black got up to the mike. "Hey...um is Ron and Roni here?"
"Right here bro!" a young women said from the crowed. Her and a young man that looked just like her walked up to the stage. The boy Ron picked up a bass guitar and his twin Roni picked up a guitar.
They had brown hair that fell just below their shoulders and right behind their left ear was a small brad.
Jasmine saw that they had different marks on their faces. A triangle with only two sides and a small red tear under their right eye. The color of the marks were the same as the brother`s, red and black
but the bothers had green and the twins didn`t. Why do they have those marks and what do they mean?
" Ok this is a new song we`ve been workn` on, it`s called Lost." Black said into the mike.
Jasmine was memorized by the strange music they played, then Black began to sing.
"The shadows creeping in from all around as you vanish from sight, your cries echo through my head and your face hunts my dreams
I`m lost without you, lost in the cold and rain
I remember your black silk hair and you bright green eyes that showed me the world. Your soft pale skin and your gentle touch.
your voice hunts me, your smile hunts me
I`m lost without you, lost in the cold and rain."
As Black sang a small boy with gray skin and turquoise hair, ran up to the stage and looked up at Black.
"So they did find you after all."
Jasmine stormed through the halls of the castle. "Where are they?!" she scowled as she continued to look for Lief and Barda.
Kree chirped on her shoulder and rustled his feathers.
