Chapter Eleven: The Next Step
"I've sensed a lot of things in the last several hours. since I lost consciousness during the first attack." Rain spoke to the group in his usual meek tone of voice.
Kuwabara and Hiei stood in the room. Shera and Lin were gathered in the room, along with their father Bohen and Dr. Hawkins.
"Hiei and Kuwabara. you both spoke with Tressei, didn't you?" He asked them from the spot where he was sitting before them.
"Yeah." Kuwabara replied.
Hiei nodded.
"Are you really going to fight Darkon?" He asked them.
Hiei scoffed. "We hardly have a choice, he has the only thing that can get us back to our own world." He replied.
Rain sighed. "Good," He began. ".there is something around the fortress that won't let just anybody into it."
"What is it?" Kuwabara asked, becoming interested.
"I don't know what it." Rain replied. He suddenly shivered, but regained composer.
"Rain!'" Bohen exclaimed. "This is too much for you; you need to lie back down." He reasoned as he began to approach the pale young man before him.
"No!" Rain snapped. "I have to tell them this wile I still can!" He added.
Bohen frown, but stepped back.
Rain looked up at the group with a weary expression. He held up a pale arm and pointed at Kuwabara. "You. are the first part of the 'key' to the demon's castle." He informed him.
Kuwabara was taken back by this, while Hiei's eyes widened suddenly.
".But you're only half of it." He added. "Tr- Tressei will know how to find the other person who will open the door with you." He then reached up and placed his hands over his face. He gasped and began to lean forward.
Kuwabara rushed forward to catch him before he hit the floor. The taller spirit detective looked down at Rain. "Hang in there, kid." He spoke to him as he supported his terrible small and pale body.
Rain looked up at him and his eyes watered slightly. "I'm afraid that Garr really is dead now." He remarked. "But while you two are still alive," He began saying, while looking back and forth from Hiei to Kuwabara. "We still have hope. and that's what the demons are really afraid of." He managed to say before his head slumped back and his eyes fell shut.
"Oh my god." Lin exclaimed.
"Don't worry," Kuwabara began. "He's just unconscious." He added, trying to calm the worried girl down.
Hiei watched as Shera shook her head.

Marth was now standing in a large room. The first half of the chamber was lit by a series of torches along the walls on both sides of the room. The other of the chamber was covered in shadows and nothing could be see from within them.
Marth lowered himself onto one knee and looked towards the shadows. "My Lord, it I- Marth." He announced the shadows in a formal manner.
"Yes of course, I know it is you." A deep baritone voice replied. "I assume that this visit means that you have brought me news of the recent events." The voice added.
"My Lord," He began. "The rebels in Linbrook have proven more powerful then initially expected." He explained.
"Are you certain of this?" The voice asked.
"Yes, our soldiers failed to bring deal with them." He began to say.
"And obviously, by this visit, it mean that the demon brothers failed to defeat them as well." The voice offered
"I'm afraid so." Marth answered. "But I have a new plan." He added. "I will exploit their irrational sentimentality." He began. "By offering them the fallen son."

How's that for a surprise? Send me some reviews and let me know what you though of it. Sorry about this chapter being kind of short. The next one will probably be longer.
