PurplePixie: ^_^ Hola, amigos/as! Como estas? LoL! Now I could greet people
in, not one-not two-but THREE different languages!! ^_^ Ain't it cool?
Yeah! Now I know that you're making fun of me you Spanish speakers! =_=
*glares at Spanish speakers* ^_^ Just kidding! Heh, well, that's enough
meaningless ranting. On with the fic!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Before we last left off, Xellos had teleported everyone to the terrorized town of Terrotina (Kyomi: ^^ Do you readers know why I named it TERROtina, now?). Let's see what's been happening since then...
*readers get a clear view of a 'peaceful' city as the Slayer's gang teleport in on a near by hill*
"Well, here we are!" Xellos pointed to the pretty deserted town before them. "This is the city of Terrotina."
"Wait," Amelia blinked at the spectacle. "Where are all the people?"
"Uh..." Gourry scratched his head. "Well, it's obvious. They all knew Lina was coming! ^_^ I mean, who would want to get in the way of that litt- OOF!!"
Before Gourry could finish his line, Lina shut him up with a kick in the stomach. Then she glared at the blonde swordsman.
"GOURRY! You idiot!" Lina flared. "These people are frightened by the monster that invaded the town. NOT ME!!"
"Oh!" Gourry clapped his hands together in a oh-now-I-get-it type of way. "So you mean you're not the demon they were looking for?"
"GOURRY!!! *kick in the tummy!* *punch in the face!* *kick in the- oWwWw...that's gonna hurt* I'M NOT A DEMON!!"
"-_- Lina, could we just get going??" Zelgadis sighed in exasperation.
"Yes, Miss Lina!" Filia pointed to the little clock on her pocket mace (Kyomi: Hehe...pocket mace. Is that funny or what? AHAHAHA!! *gets smacked with a shoe* .O). "We haven't got all day. Those people in the city are in need of our help!"
"Oh, fine!" Lina let Gourry escape from her headlock of doom, stood up, and dusted herself off. "Well, let's go then! Onward, gang!"
~*In the town*~
"Wow...it IS deserted," Lina looked around at the seemingly abandoned town. "I wonder where that Zachary guy is..."
So, in search of their man, the whole group walked around the town, which wasn't hard at all (considering the fact that there were no PEOPLE blocking their way ^^;). The whole city was quiet and held an eerie sort of feeling in the air. All the doors and windows were closed shut and tightly locked and not a single person crossed the street. There was even a bit of fog creeping around. There was one word that could describe this scene...
"Miss Lina, this place is CREEPY!" Amelia shivered, pulling her cloak tightly around herself.
"It is odd, isn't it?" Xellos glanced around at all the houses and buildings. "I've heard that Terrotina was a pretty nice place, except that it WAS known to have monsters attack it several times. But this city never closed down like this before. At least, not from what I've heard."
"And you hear a lot don't you, Xellos?" Filia smirked. "Rumors, orders, information, voices, hallucinations..."
"Oh, you would know, wouldn't you Fi?," the corner of Xellos's mouth twitched slightly.
"Please, Miss Filia! Mister Xellos! Don't argue so much!" Amelia pleaded. But of course, the two non-humans were already blurting insults at each other. Amelia sighed and looked up in surprise as Zelgadis laid a hand on her shoulder.
"Don't worry, Amelia," Zelgadis looked down at the little princess. "They were bound to get into a fight sooner or later. You know they're hopeless."
"^^; Uh...Okay."
"Hey, guys!" Lina called to her fellow travelers and pointed to a door with an address sign reading TOPPO RESIDENT written across it. "We found the place!"
~*After knocking several times...*~
"Miss Inverse is it? Well, welcome to our little city of Terrotina!" a man around his 40's, with withering black hair had opened the door and welcomed them in. "I'm Zachary Toppo, mayor of this city."
"So, you're the guy who hired us for the job," Lina said from her seat on a coach along with the rest of the gang. "Well, I'm Lina and this is Gourry, Amelia, Filia, Zelgadis and Xellos."
"^_^ It's nice to meet you all," Toppo gave a slight bow.
"So, I hear you have a problem with a monster, right?" Lina asked. "Where is it? We didn't see any demons around when we got here."
"Oh! Well, that's because the monster, whom we all call The Beast (Kyomi: ^^; Very creative, huh?), lives in the haunted mansion in the hills in the day," Toppo pointed to an old, scary, dark (and it comes complete with clouds and lighting!), house outside a window. It practically radiated scariness. "The Beast only comes into the town at night to scare and frighten the civilians. Please! You must help us! Our people are so terrorized that they are too afraid to even take a step out of their doors!"
"But why are they so afraid?" Filia questioned, a concern look on her face. "How does it look like? Does it have sharp fangs? Does it have hairy claws and spikes? Does it look like him?" The dragon priestess pointed to Xellos.
"Uh...well," Toppo sweatdropped. "We're not sure what it TRULY looks like. It seems to take the form of a person's greatest fear and horror."
"Oh, it does, does it?" Lina leaped up from her seat and raised a fist into the air. "Well, I'm gonna teach it the meaning of fear! Come on guys! Let's bag ourselves a monster!"
"YEAH!!!"

PurpleP: ^^ Kinda short and nothing's happening so far, but it will soon! So stay tuned for the next episode of...*drumroll*...GHOST SLAYERS!!! ^____^ Wow, that was corny. Heh heh. ^^;
