Chapter 8:The Truth Behind it All

"What do you mean?" Izawa demanded.

"It's this ball. The power's coming from this ball." Krizzie said triumphantly.

"Uhh…please explain further." Yuki said.

"This ball is actually the source of the portals. Now that we have it, we can be sure that no portals are popping up anytime now."

"Uhh…uh-huh. Not understood."

"Sigh. This ball is what's causing the portals to pop up. Understood?"

"Ah! OK!"

"You are totally stupid due to the fact that that brain of yours is all screwed up. You don't even know what's one plus one." Krizzie said and placed her index finger on Yuki's forehead.

"It's eleven." Yuki replied with an idiotic grin.

"If you only knew how stupid you look with that grin…" Krizzie shook her head.

"Hey! That's not what a best friend say to her best friend!" Yuki exclaimed.

"Idiot." Krizzie said with a sweatdrop.

"Whatever you say…" Yuki whispered.

"Then that solves the portal problem. What about the getting-rid-of Kamino problem?" Suiko asked.

"To tell you the truth, I don't know." Krizzie replied with an apologetic smile.

"Right…" Suiko said and got into a thinking stance.

"At least we're saved for a while. We have to think of a solution quick. Who knows what Kamino will do next!" Izawa said.

"I think I can answer that question." Martin's voice came rolling in, entering the picture rather dramatically.

Everyone looked at him, expecting the answer.

"It took a while for the Legendex to dig up the information I needed for the solution, but I have it!" Martin said triumphantly.

"Well, then, Mr. High and Mighty, tell us!" Diana said impatiently, left foot tapping.

"Ok, but first I'll be needing the eleven spies, the glass sphere, a doll, a large space, a lot of slime and a stick or chalk." Martin said.

"Ok, this is weird." Yoshiko said with beaded eyes and sweatdrops.

"Very weird." Ken backed up.

-After a few minutes-

They were standing at the soccer field with Martin busy drawing a symbol in the middle of the field with the help of a piece of chalk courtesy of none other than little Takeshi.

"What exactly are you doing?" Alex asked.

"Wait and see." Martin said and continued doodling.

"I hate it when he answers vaguely." Diana said and folded her arms.

-After a few minutes of nonstop doodling-

"There we go!" Martin said and dusted his hands and admired his work.

He drew a big circle with a star in the middle of it then another circle on the middle of it then a triangle then David's star (the six-sided star) then some unreadable writing in the middle of it all.

"What is that?" Clover asked and pointed at the drawing.

"There was once a Kamino family member who broke the tradition too. A group of paranormal investigators investigated it and used the very same symbol you see in front of you to seal the spirit." Martin said as a matter-of-factly.

"So, how do we use it?" Yuki asked.

"What's the chant?" Krizzie asked.

"How does the ritual go?" Riza asked.

"Fear not, my comrades! I, Martin Mystery, paranormal investigator extraordinaire, have a solution to all your problems!" Martin bloated.

"Great…here we go again…" Diana said with a sweatdrop.

"I hate it when he gets big headed…" Izawa whispered to himself.

"Another idiot." Krizzie murmured.

"Hey! I heard that!" Martin retorted.

"Why? What's the problem? You really are an idiot." Diana backed up.

"You guys are too mean." Martin said in a child-like voice.

"Whatever. Just answer our questions." Yuki said.

"You know, I think I finally found someone who's as stupid as you or maybe even stupider." Krizzie said to Yuki.

"Weird." Yuki replied.

"Hey!" Yuki retorted after realizing what Krizzie told her.

"Now, the ritual goes like this: The eleven of us gather around the circle and hold hands and slime's put around the circle. The doll's placed in the middle of the drawing along with the glass ball. After that we chant and then wait for the spirit to come and sea it with the balloon-thingy from the U-watch!" Martin explained.

"Chant?" Teppei asked.

"Wait a minute… it's a weird chant…I don't remember much…I'll look it up in the Legendex!" Martin said cheerfully.

"Hurry up." Lina said.

"Hear we go!" Martin said as the almost-transparent page appeared before them from his watch.

"Seal…blahblahblahblahblblahblah… Kamino…blahblahblahblahblahblah

…Here we go! Chant!" Martin said as he scanned the page.

Everyone waited silently for his answer.

"Uhh…what?" Martin asked.

"Give me that, you idiot!" Diana said and grabbed his hand.

"Chou van est ti frin do si te danve retit rou chi!" Diana said.

"Huh!" The whole gang replied.

"What language is that?" Yuki asked.

"I don't know, but that's how I translate it." Diana said, throwing off Martin's arm along with Martin.

"And there's another itsy-bitsy problem…"Diana said.

"What problem?" Java asks.

""We need the full moon." Diana said sadly.

"That's no problem at all!" Riza said.

"Why? Can't you see the cloud hovering above the moon?" Suiko said and pointed to the moon covered with clouds.

"Look closer!" Riza said.

Everyone looked at the clouds.

Their eyes widened.

"It's parting! God must be on our side for now!" Clover said.

And true as it was, the clouds did part revealing a full-circled moon.

A very long moment of silence.

"It's time." Martin finally said, breaking the ice.

The eleven spies got ready.

"You guys ready? Yumiko's a strong spirit, and there's a possibility we might die if the ritual doesn't go well." Martin said.

Everyone nodded.

'For Japan.' Krizzie said to herself.

'For our reputation.' Sam, Clover and Alex thought at the same time.

'For soccer.' Teppei, Hajime and Izawa thought as they all held hands.

(Background song: start of 'Tokimeki no Doukasen', ending song of Curious Play)

'For shopping.' Suiko, Lina and Riza thought.

'For the sake of getting this mission over…' Martin, Java and Diana thought.

'For uhh… I don't know. Everybody's thinking of something they're going to do this for. I guess it's for… for Genzo!' Yuki thought with a light blush.

"Okay, everyone I want you to concentrate all your energies on the ball and doll." Martin said and closed his eyes.

Everyone followed and closed their eyes.

"Start chanting now!" Martin nearly chanted.

"Chou van est ti frin do si te danve retit rou chi! Chou van est ti frin do si te danve retit rou chi!" they all repeated the chant over and over again, each chant getting louder.

Until finally, they heard a screech.

Everything went silent for a while, that is until Martin suddenly shouted…

"Keep chanting louder! We have to chant until she comes out!"

The wind became violent as it circled the soccer field on the dark night.

The group just held on to each other tighter, loudening their voices so the wind wouldn't drown it out.

They thought their efforts were for nothing, that is until…

The wind parted and gave way to one thing they weren't hoping to see.

A demon-like lady with nails longer than a meter, with hair long and black as ebony, eyes, red and bloodshot as no one could imagine, with red skin and black wings that looked severely burned, skinny arms almost having no flesh at all, her bottom part, instead of having legs, have clouds in exchange and larger than all of them combined, as big as a mountain.

The wind grew stronger, as the creature flung its skinny arms against the breeze.

"Martin, are you sure that the U-watch can handle it!" Diana asked over the commotion.

"Watch this." Martin replied instead, breaking away from Diana and Yuki's grip.

He entered the circle, now glowing with an eerie yellow-greenish light.

He was already holding the thing used to trap the demon. (I forgot what it was called, sorry about that. It's the thing that releases a balloon-thingy that conceals any cloud-like spirit, demon, whatsoever…)

"Say bye-bye, Yumiko!" Martin shouted before grabbing the ball and the doll.

"Oi tri fu syu gi he ti! Oi tri fu syu gi he ti!" Martin shouted as he magically united the ball and the doll.

Everyone watched in awe as the ball and doll merged together.

They kept their hands glued together in spite of the strong wind.

"Martin! You OK!" Yuki asked.

"I'm fine!" Martin replied as he raised the doll, which is now glowing with an eerie yellow glow.

"Be put to rest now, YUMIKO KAMINO!" Martin shouted.

The creature screeched, utterly in pain as it covered its ears with its bony hands.

"Jo tri byu fi jen de! Jo tri byu fi jen de!" Martin chanted.

The creature screeched really loud, almost bursting the ears of the others.

"Let's help him! Jo tri byu fi jen de!" Diana said as she also started reciting.

And soon, everybody else was chanting.

Until finally, the creature stopped screeching and bowed its head.

It started turning transparent, then turning into dust then entering the doll.

The last dust disappeared, and everyone was relieved.

The place was still foggy; no one can see things clearly.

And then, they saw it.

Sanae smiled.

Yoshiko cried tears of joy.

Yayoi grinned.

In the middle of the circle were none other more than the kidnapped people: Oozora Tsubasa, Hikaru Matsuyama, Jun Misugi, Taro Misaki, Genzo Wakabayashi and Kojiro Hyuuga.

"Wait a minute…" Diana said.

"Where's Martin!" Diana suddenly exclaimed.

They all turned to her.

"Martin lost…?" Java said sadly.

No reply.

"Martin, if you're paying a joke, it isn't funny…" Riza said shakily.

A hand reached out and touched Diana's heel.

Diana screamed.

They heard laughter.

A very familiar laughter.

Martin's laughter.

"You should've seen your face, sis! You looked hilarious!" Martin laughed.

"You idiot! Don't you dare scare me like that!" Diana screamed and a chase began at the soccer field.

"Well, at least we know he's normal." Sam said.

The group nodded.

"Well, wasn't that exciting or what?" Alex said.

"If you mean exciting as in weird, I'm with you." Clover said and wrapped an arm around Alex' shoulder.

They all laughed it off.

"Excuse me." Tsubasa's voice came rolling in.

"Huh? Talking to me?" Yuki said.

"Yeah. We'd like to thank you for saving us. We're really very thankful." Tsubasa said.

"Thank you very much." Bas, Taro, Matsuyama and Jun said and bowed down low.

"Aw, that was nothing! It's our job anyway!" Yuki said and waved a hand.

"Thanks, I suppose." Hyuuga said.

"Whatever." Genzo said.

"Have a bit of conscience, Genzo. They saved us." Taro said.

"My pride is too much to step down and say thanks." Genzo snorted.

"Moron. If I knew he was like this, I should never liked him at all. Bummer." Yuki whispered to herself.

"Did you say something?" Krizzie asked.

"Talking to myself." Yuki said with her usual grin.

"Where's the doll?" Lina asked.

"Right here." Martin said and showed the doll sealed within a white balloon.

"Nice work, team." M.O.M.'s voice came rolling in.

"I'm very impressed, girls." Jerry said.

"Ahem." Izawa, Teppei and Hajime said.

"And boys." Jerry added.

"Well, I guess you guys are free now. The center will take care of Yumiko's spirit." M.O.M. said as she pointed to her workers taking the ball from Martin.

"Well, I have to say it was fun knowing you guys." Riza said in a sad tone.

"We'll meet each other again." Sam said.

"Now, off we go girls." Jerry said as he pointed to the ladder leading to the plane.

"Ahem." Izawa, Teppei and Hajime said.

"And boys." Jerry sighed.

"I think it's OK. The boys can drive home, can they?" Clover said.

"Right. So I guess WOOHP can leave you here?" Jerry asked the trio.

"Yeah." The trio nodded.

"Hey, hurry up, will you?" Riza said from the plane.

Behind her were Sam, Clover, Alex and Lina.

The first one to climb up the ladder was Suiko, followed by Krizzie.

Before Krizzie continued, she asked "You guys coming or not?"

"Nah. We'll just hitch a ride with M.O.M. Thanks anyway." Diana replied.

"OK then, Bye!" Krizzie said and continue up the ladder.

"Bye, Krizzie. Nice working with you…" Izawa whispered to himself softly.

Jerry went up next.

"Hurry up, Yuki!" Lina shouted when everyone was on the plane except girl mentioned.

Yuki was about to go up when suddenly…

"Excuse me…" a voice said.

"Huh?" Yuki said and turned around.

It was Taro.

"May I know you're name?" Taro asked.

"Sure. It's Yuki. Yuki Tamane." Yuki replied with a smile.

"I'm Taro. Taro Misaki." Taro said rather formally.

"Nice to meet you."

"You too."

"Yuki!" Suiko shouted.

"I'm there!" Yuki shouted.

"Better get going." Yuki said to Taro.

She was already starting to go up when someone held her hand.

"We'll meet again, won't we…?" Taro asked in a childlike voice, tightening his grip on Yuki's hand.

Yuki looked startled, but she said "Yeah."

With one last grin, she climbed up.

"Let's go!" Yuki said, midway of the ladder.

The plane left, Yuki hanging on the ladder.

She waved her hand in one last goodbye to the Japanese team before disappearing up the ladder.

'Yuki, eh? We'll meet again.' Taro thought.

'I'm sure.' He thought as he narrowed his eyes.
