Rei's body fell into a thick blanket of white snow. She let the cold claim her body. Unable to move anymore, or breathe, she let out a final sigh before the snow started to cover her body. Footsteps crept closer to her, and soon footsteps surrounded her.

John walked into Midnight's club to find the door to his room open. He walked into the room slowly and saw Midnight picking up pieces of the disc on the floor. He looked up.

"She's gone isn't she?" John asked

Midnight placed the pieces on a nearby table, and walked past him.

"You do know she has the spear, right?"

"She didn't get very far. It was out of desperation. She doesn't have much time"

"What is she planning?"

"Something we can't stop" Midnight walked out

Angela walked towards them wondering what was going on.

"Where is she?" Angela asked

"Gone" Midnight answered

"What do you mean gone? She has the spear. We have to go after her" Angela said

"John" Midnight went to get a drink

"Angela, don't" John motioned

Angela took out her gun and pointed it and Midnight.

"Where is she?" Angela asked

"Tell your friend not to point that thing at me, if she wants to stay conscious" Midnight said taking a sip

"Angela, I told you that thing really isn't going to help" John moved slowly towards her

"Shut the hell up John! All you've done is made my life even more complicated. I didn't want any of this. She destroyed my sister's burial site. And she took the spear. I've been really calm about the whole thing don't you think?"

"You're upset I can see that" John stood on front of her, "But you're really not helping the situation here"

Midnight turned around and finished his drink.

"I will bring the spear back. I swore the oath of neutrality, so naturally it would make sense if I go" Midnight said

"He does have a point there" John said

Midnight threw his glass against the wall and another portal appeared. He walked towards it.

"You better watch her" Midnight said to John as he held onto his hat and walked into the portal.

"Men!" Angela pushed John aside and jumped in after Midnight.

"Oh come on! He said he would do it! Angela! I hate these things!" John jumped through the portal as well.

John and used these portals a few times, and no matter what each time felt like the first time. His body being pulled in all directions, the feel of nausea never leaving him, and of course the sudden stop and fall at the end. No matter what he would never land on his feet. He'd always come crashing down. He'd hope for something soft like a pillow factor. But no, it would be sand, or gravel or the best was the side of mountain one time.

John looked and saw white. Nothing but white.

"Oh shit!" John fell through and landed on something soft. Angela.

"Get off me!" She yelled

"I'm glad to see you too" John said as he shook his head to get his bearings.

The snow was falling heavily at this point. He pushed the snow off Angela's face, before getting off her slowly. He fell back into the snow and sat up.

"For once I'd like to go somewhere warm, beaches, blue water, instead of snow or a mountain. I know we're on a damn mountain somewhere" John said as he got up slowly

"It's freezing! Are we in Antarctica?" Angela said as she hugged her arms to stay warm.

John searched his pockets and realized he didn't have his lighter anymore. He walked over to Angela and put his arms around her and helped her tread through the snow. The two walked and couldn't find any shelter, let alone see through the walls of snow being blown around.

"You just didn't want to give me your jacket" Angela said as she shivered

"And miss this? They say body heat is better" John tried to answer back

"Where's your friend?"

"Somewhere warmer"

"Someone's coming"

"You can hear that through all this?"

Midnight walked to an old ancient temple. He saw that there was light inside. He saw the huge wooden doors with some strange carvings. Before he reached to knock the door, it opened. Inside 2 monks greeted him.

"We have been expecting you" the monk asked

"Where are your friends?" the second monk asked

"They'll get here eventually" Midnight answered back

"She is waiting for you inside"

More footsteps came and surrounded John and Angela. They couldn't see what was happening. They felt arms reach out to them, they felt the cold claim them.

Midnight walked into a larger room, where Rei laid on the alter in front of a large statue of Buddha. His arms reached out almost as he held her. Midnight felt a strange presence and looked around but saw nothing. He walked towards Rei on the alter. He called out to her.

"I know you're in there" Midnight said

John awoke lying next to Angela. They were inside the ancient temple. The monks had retrieved them from the snow and brought them inside. John looked around the temple. He looked over at Angela.

"Angela wake up. Wake up already" John said

Rei finally awoke, and got off the alter. She could barely stand.

"You must keep them away. I must finish what I started. I don't have much time. Consider it a final request" Rei said

Midnight nodded and walked out of the room. Rei took the spear out of her kimono and stumbled into another smaller room filled with candles. She could see the small boy lying there, a mosquito canopy covered him.

"I told you I would come back" Rei said as she fell beside him

John was walking around the temple, he had left Angela lying there on the floor. Midnight found him wandering around aimlessly.

"You left your friend alone?" Midnight asked

"She was unconscious, dead weight, didn't feel like carrying her" John answered

"You shouldn't have come"

"She jumped first"

"And would you follow her into hell?"

"I already did"

"Then why are you here?"

"Why are we here? This isn't her usual hang out spot"

"It's one of the first Buddhist temples built. They say that Buddha himself blessed the earth the temple is built on"

"So it's like holy ground, demon repellant"

"Actually it's the monks here, they protect it from evil"

"How?"

"Faith. Their sheer faith and devotion. They keep the evil out, they keep this place as it was hundreds, thousands of years ago"

"But what's here that she's protecting? What does she need the spear for?"

"I can't tell you that"

"No, you can't, you're just here to distract me long enough so she can finish"

John started running, not sure towards what but something. He knew she was going to use the spear, but for what?

Angela awoke with a sudden jerk. She felt something, something evil coming. She got up and yelled out. She ran into a larger room, and saw the bodies of the monks lying on the ground. She walked past them slowly, she knew what killed them, a demon.
