Do I have to repeat that? Good. Oh yeah, Evil Fang, to soothe your head, I only took the coin for Dante from DMC2, I just like the coin. Yeah, his personality wasn't that good in that one, but people make mistakes. I mean, look at me. On with the fic!

The white lights deposit our eight…I don't really think we can call them heroes. We have four half demons who are not really…buddy's, a pervert, a secluded gas mask guy, a guy who looks like a model, and a swordsman. We will just call them a group.

"All right guys!" said the weird glowing green light. "This is our stop. This is where you people will stay until the tournament starts, and this is where you will wait until your matches!"

The group looked at where the green glowing light was. In front of them was a huge castle, it had about eight spires protruding out of the ground, a front gate, and a couple of look out towers. It is a little bigger than Laharl's Castle, and looks a little cleaner. Laharl just looks at it with a bored expression, Zelos whistles his approval, and everyone else just looks at it.

"So, this is where we are staying?" Laharl asked. 'All I know is that it had better look better on the inside than the outside.' Laharl thought to himself.

The glowing green light just giggles. "No silly, that is where I am staying. You are staying in that cabin over there."

The group looks at the cabin that is below the castle. It is rundown at best. The door is half off of its hinges, the windows are broken, the wood looks like it is molding, and the chimney is falling apart. It probably has termites as well. The group looks at one another, even Hunk looks at people. They all see the same thing in each others eyes: No way in Hell.

"I have a better idea." Said Dante. He got the glowing green light's attention. "I will flip this coin, if it lands on heads, we get the castle, if it lands on tails, you get the cabin. You guy's agree?"

The rest of the group nods their head, and Dante flips the coin into the air. He grabs it, and flips it over onto his wrist in a flash of speed. He slowly pulls off his hand, to reveal tails. The entire group smirks.

"Looks like you get the cabin." Leon said, as the entire group walk past the glowing green light. "Sleep peacefully." After that, he gets a big grin on his face, and the entire group walks past the cabin, and into the castle. The glowing green light turns a light shade of purple, and just says "What just happened?"

The group enters the castle, and starts to look for the essentials. Mainly, the kitchen and bathroom. The floors have a deep red carpet on it, and there are tapestries hanging from the walls. The walls are made out of a granite stone, and the walls look enforced enough to take a couple siege fights. The gate is a drawbridge, with a wooden gate. The corridors seem endless, and this reminds people of a giant maze. Except Laharl, who is used to castles. The group splits up, to find the bathroom, the kitchen, a bedroom, and any other thing that might be important.

Laharl takes the path to his right, and dashes down it. 'I don't need to be traveling with a moron.' Laharl thought to himself. He slows down, after he takes a couple of different corridors, he memorizes where he is going so that he has a general idea of where he is. He keeps walking straight, and enters a room that has a strange green portal in it. 'What is this thing? It looks a lot like the portal I use to go to places. However, I don't see anyone that appears to be acting as a gatekeeper. Come to think of it, I really haven't seen anyone else besides those seven others, and the glowing green light. If this is supposed to be a tournament, where are the others?' Laharl ponders these questions, and suddenly the green gate flashes.

Laharl jumps back, pulling out his cosmic blade, and getting into a ready position. 'Damn it, I should have gotten a stronger sword.' Laharl thought to himself. The green light gets brighter, and Laharl has to shield his eyes with one of his hands. He keeps looking at the gate, in case of a hostile encounter. The gate dims and nothing has appeared. 'What was that?' Laharl thought to himself. Laharl puts his sword away, and goes to the gate to inspect it. When he gets close to the gate, it gets a little brighter. He pauses, and waits to see if anything happens. Nothing does. He takes a couple more steps, and the gate gets even brighter. He pauses again, and still, nothing else happens.

'Does this gate glow brighter as I get closer? If so, what purpose does it serve?' He walks closer, and the gate gets brighter with each step he takes. He is right in front of the gate, and then he touches the gate. A white flash engulfs him, followed by a strange blackness. The black seems to absorb anything that gives light, and Laharl can't even see his own hand. 'Damn it, I should have had someone else test it for me.' Laharl thought to himself. Then, a bright being enters the dark space. It appears to be one of the glowing lights, except this one is about ten times the size of the other one. 'Great, it is going to be one of those days…' Laharl thinks to himself.

"Welcome Laharl. Since you touched the gate first, you will be the leader for your team. We will see if your team deserves to enter, by having you fight another leader. It could be the strongest on a team, or the weakest. It is all determined by how fast they can find the portal like you did. By the way, your team has been told of what has happened, and will watch you to see if they pass. Good day, and please wait for us to choose another team leader for you to fight." With that, the big glowing light disappears.

This leaves Laharl to his own thoughts. 'Let me get this straight.' Laharl thinks to himself. 'I have to fight to see if my team is eligible to enter this tournament? What kind of crap is that! Didn't they pick us because we were strong, and now they test ME to see if my team is good to go? I hate this tournament already.'

The big glowing light appears again, and tells Laharl "Your opponent has been found. I wish you luck, and have a good fight."

Laharl got a little pissed, and yelled out "I BET YOU SAID THAT TO THE OTHER GUY TOO! LOOK HERE, I DON'T NEED LUCK TO WIN, I JUST NEED SKILL!"

The big glowing light turns red, and says "Er…I have to say it. It is in the rules, look at my contract."

A piece of paper floats in front of Laharl and he grabs it, and begins to read it aloud. "You, the person who agrees to this contract, has to support both sides. This way, you don't get yelled at for appearing to favor a party. This message will self-destruct if someone reads this out loud. WHAT!" Laharl screams before it explodes in his face. Laharl coughs a little bit, and appears burned. His hair is all messed up, and his eyes turn pure blood red. "I really hope." Laharl says in a very angry voice. "That my opponent had better last long enough for me to vent my anger. If not, I am coming after you."

The glowing light turns a pale yellow color, and then a white light engulfs Laharl. He appears in a rocky stage and he asses the arena quickly. 'Ok,' Laharl thinks to himself 'It is very rocky, and a little hard to retain your footing here. There is only one open spot in the center of the arena, if anyone can fly, they would have the advantage of rocks for cover. It is a good thing that I can fly then.' Laharl thinks with a smirks on his face. (A/N-If you people who have played Disgaea don't understand, if you look closely at Laharl's back, you can see a pair of wings.)

A white light appears in front of Laharl, and enters the arena. Laharl's mouth drops open. "Why, you look a little surprised Laharl." Said his opponent. "What, cat got your tongue? Can't you tell it is me, your rival, the Dark Adonis Vyers, the man who can swoon any woman, and played one of the main characters in your adventure? Ah, it must be my appearance, I knew I should have gone with a red coat, instead of a green one, but now it is too late for-!"

"DAMN IT!" Laharl screams at the top of his lunges. "DAMN IT, DAMN IT, DAMN IT! MID-BOSS, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!"

"Laharl you wound me right here." Mid-Boss says, indicating his heart. "I am your opponent, just like old times, you agree? Well then, shall we commence in a battle of epic proportions that will say the fate of our companions? Ah, it will be glorious, we will be two beautiful, well, at least I will be beautiful, warriors fighting with moves that will make women swoon over us!"

"Mid-Boss," said Laharl in a seething tone. "I have kicked your ass four times already. At your castle, when you took Flonne's pendant, when you stole our lunch basket, and when you were in Celestia. Do I have to do it again?" Laharl asks as he pulls out his cosmic blade.

"Laharl, I am not the same Mid-Boss you knew. I have upgraded to FINAL BOSS!" Mid-Boss yells as fire erupts in his eyes, and he punches his fist upwards. A glowing light appears all around him, like a bunch of neon lights. 'Wow,' Mid-Boss thought to himself 'I didn't know I had neon lights when I did this! Maybe now he will understand I am stronger!'

"BITE THE DUST!" Laharl yells as he throws a bunch of energy spheres into Mid-Boss. As the light and dirt cleared, everyone could see Mid-Boss lying on the ground, knocked out. "Heh, some Final Boss you make." Laharl said as he crosses his arms, and puts his cosmic blade away. A big glowing light appears in the center of the stage, and looks at Mid-Boss.

"This contestant is unable to fight, I declare Laharl the winner! Congratulations Laharl you and your team are going to compete in the tournament! How does it make you feel?" The big glowing light asks Laharl.

Laharl just glares at the big glowing light, and says "I have a giant, sudden urge to kill you. That contract explodes when it is read! What kind of contract does that!" Laharl yells out as he pulls out his cosmic blade.

The big glowing light turns a really pale yellow, and says rather quickly "Wait, wait! If you attack me, you will be disqualified! Then you can't fight stronger opponents, and you can't win the prize of the champions!"

Laharl stopped a second. "Wait, did you say prize? What kind of prize is it?" Laharl asks the big glowing light.

The light turns to a darker shade of yellow, appearing to get some confidence back, but still a little scared. "It is a prize that only the champion may receive! I am not allowed to tell you what it is; it is a closely guarded secret! It is well worth it, I guarantee you that much!"

Laharl put his cosmic blade away, and then turns around and start to walk to a glowing green portal that had appeared behind him. "It had better be worth it. If it isn't, I am taking it out of your hide." Laharl says as he walks into the green portal. To anyone looking, they would have seen something that could be best described as a ghost. The big glowing light had turned translucent in its fear.

Laharl walked through the portal, and appeared in the middle of the kitchen, where every one else was having a snack, except Hunk who didn't want to show his face. "You guys…started eating…without me." Laharl said in a slow voice.

"Yeah, we didn't really see any problem with it." Zelos said, as he was eating an apple. "We figured since you were fighting that one Mid-Boss, Vyers guy, we might as well get something to eat. No use in worrying about something we have no control over right?" Zelos said, and then he took a big bite out of his apple.

"Here, have a sandwich." Said Lloyd, as he handed over a sandwich to Laharl. Laharl took it, and slowly ate it. "Say, what was that attack anyway?" Lloyd asked Laharl.

Laharl stops eating his sandwich, and looks at Lloyd. "That was my Overlord's Wrath. I take the energy inside my body, turn it into a bunch of sphere, surround my opponent with them, and then unleash them all at once." After saying that, Laharl takes another bite of his sandwich.

"Anyway, we looked at room while you were out as well." Said Dante. "We all took a room, and you get the last one. Hope you don't mind too much. Said Dante before he started to finish a slice of pizza in his hand. Then he grabbed another slice.

Laharl took a deep breathe, sighed, and said. "You guys stiffed me didn't you?" All the other members nodded their head, and Laharl just hunched over. "Being the Lord of Terror, you would think I would get a little more respect from my vassals and others, or at least, a little fear. But nope, they all still treat me like dirt. Assholes, every last one of you people."

"Anyway, we did a lot of scouting around the place." Leon told Laharl. "We found the kitchen, which is where you are, a dining room, a living room, a weight room, a training room, and a room for real monster encounter training."

Laharl just looked at him. "I was gone for a good five minutes, how did you guys do all of this in the time I was gone?" Laharl asked him.

Leon got a small smile on his face. "Would you believe me if I told you the internet?" He asked Laharl.

"Do I get a better answer than that?" Laharl asked. "Nope." "Well, then I will have to accept it won't I?"

"Laharl," said Inuyasha. "Why don't you wear a shirt? Isn't that something like indecent exposure?"

Laharl glared at Inuyasha. "It is only 'indecent exposure' if I am a woman. And I don't wear one to make people like you ask questions. Apparently, its working isn't it jackass?" Laharl said in a sarcastic tone.

Inuyasha's face twisted in anger. "What did you say!" He growled at Laharl.

"Do you need a hearing aid to go with that ugly face?" Laharl asked in a smartass tone.

Inuyasha put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and Laharl pulled out his cosmic blade. Both are glaring at one another, and sparks seem to appear between their eyes. Tension is building in the room, and Zelos asks only one question: "Hey guys, where do they keep the popcorn? This seems to be getting interesting."

Dante goes to the cupboard, and pulls out a bag of popcorn. "Found it." He said, and then he put it in the microwave.

"All right, place your bets here!" Leon said, as he pulled out a notebook and pencil. "You can't change your bet in the middle or at the end of a fight. You get double your money if you call it right."

A bright flash of light appears in the room. "STOP!" Yelled a really squeaky voice, it sounded like nails on a chalkboard. Everyone covered their ears. "You two can't fight! Then we wouldn't be able to have the tournament if we are a team short!" The things voice still sounds like nails on a chalkboard, and everyone continues to hold their ears.

"All right!" Yells Inuyasha. "We won't fight, as long as you stop talking!"

The light then disappears, and leaves everyone confused. "Guys," Said Naruto from the sides. "What on Earth was that thing? Well, I know it is a glowing light, but is it just there to stop us from fighting?"

"Wait a second." Said Zelos, as he hops off the counter. "wasn't your voice a lot more…feral when we were talking to that one glowing light thing?"

Naruto looks over at Zelos, and says "Yes it was. I only us that voice when I am pissed off, or I use it to intimidate people. Usually works too."

Suddenly, a huge explosion appears from the side of the kitchen. Dante slides under the table, a red shield appears around Naruto, Lloyd pulls out a red blade and a blue blade and uses them to block, Zelos puts up his shield, Leon, roll out of the kitchen, Hunk back flips over the counter, Laharl slams his entire body into the ground, and Inuyasha puts his arms in front of his face. Everyone stays like that for a second, before they all look around at what happened. To the side of the kitchen, was a microwave, which had the door blown off.

"What just happened?" Naruto asked, as Dante went over to the microwave and inspected it.

Dante just scowls, and says. "Some idiot made this microwave sound proof. We couldn't hear the popcorn popping, and so we didn't know when to stop it. It overloaded or something, and that caused the explosion. My only question is a simple one: WHAT IDIOT MAKES A SOUNDPROOF MICROWAVE!" Dante said, appearing to get really pissed.

"Dante, you need to calm down." Leon said. "It is only a microwave, what possible harm could come from it?"

"Um, Leon, the microwave is linked to the stove top." Said Zelos.

"Wait a second." Leon said. "That means that we don't have any thing to cook with!" Leon said the last part getting a little angry.

The group nods, and then they get a little sad. "Well," said Lloyd. "I really hope you people like sandwiches, because we are going to have them for a long time."

Everyone lets this information sink in. 'Ok, I have to sort this out.' Laharl thought to himself. 'I have some idiots for teammates, I am the leader of the team, and my team is a bunch of incompetent morons. That and we don't have a wide selection of food. Why does this happen to me?'

"Guy's I am going to bed. Maybe a good night's sleep will help me clear my head. Goodnight." Laharl walks away, and then everyone puts up three fingers, and counts down '3…2…1…now.' And Laharl walks back into the room. "I forgot to ask, where are the bedrooms?"

Everyone, except Hunk because he is the silent type, says "Down the hall to the left, and take a right at the second turn."

Laharl thanks them, and walks down the hallway. When he is out of earshot, Hunk says "Guys, did you just send Laharl to the hallway that makes you think you are in Candyland?" The others grin with knowing smirks.

"I don't know about you guys, but I am getting out of here. I don't want to be around when he discovers we pulled one over on him. Goodnight." Naruto says, as he disappears into thin air.

"I really need to learn how ninjas disappear into thin air, and reappear wherever they want." Says Zelos as he begins to walk out as well. Lloyd, however, runs up, and smacks Zelos in the back of the head with a paper fan. "You would just use it for your damn perverted getaways!"

(We are going with Laharl to Candyland. Hmm…Demon who hates optimism in Candyland…this is going to be fun.)

'All right, they said down this hallway, and to the second right. But, I only see a door here. Must be my room, probably rooms are spaced out so that we don't hear each other snore or talk in their sleep.' Laharl thought to himself.

Laharl walks up to the door, and opens it. He looks inside, and sees a pink vortex. 'What?' Laharl thought to himself, right before he got sucked into the vortex. As Laharl is passing through the vortex, he sees a bunch of floating candy canes, a couple marshmallows, a couple of clowns, and a lot of other happy things.

" It, my eyes!" Laharl realized something. "Wait, I can't swear!" Laharl realizes that, indeed, he can't swear in this place. "I hate this place already." Laharl mutters to himself. "THAT, and I will be ed if I am sleeping in this spot!" Laharl splutters angrily.

Suddenly, a seven year old girl walks up to him from a sugar plum. "Hey mister, are you lost?" She asked in a sweet little voice.

Laharl's ears hurt, he couldn't STAND sweet little voice. He looked at the little girl, and said in a gruff voice "Look, little girl, why can't I swear in here?" She just giggles, and that annoys Laharl even more. 'Why can't people just keep their happiness to themselves? Or, at least their cheeriness."

The little girl quit her sweet little giggle, and then pointed out an object that was a couple hundred feet away. "You see that object over their? That big wooden one?" Laharl looks over, and he sees it. How could he miss it? It was as big as a mountain! "Well, that is a Censor Ship."

Laharl looked at her funny. "Censorship? Isn't that when people bleep out bad words?"

The girl just gave her sweet little giggle, and made Laharls ears ring in pain. 'This had better be worth it, or I am going to slaughter someone!' "Yes, Censorship is where you bleep out bad words mommy doesn't want me to say. However, that is a Censor Ship. It is a wooden ship, which makes it so that bad words get bleeped out. Well, it is dinner time, so I will see you later."

The little girl skips away, and Laharl thought to himself. 'The only way we will ever meet again, is if you commit enough sins to go to the netherworld, and I start working you as a prinny.' After thinking that, Laharl heads toward the ship, to 'reason' a way for it to leave. And by 'reason', I mean he is going to annihilate the thing.

Laharl begins walking down the path, and notices the horrible and gruesome objects along the path. There are bushes made of cotton candy, lakes made out of melted chocolate, the road is made out of licorice, and the grass is a bunch of sugar cookies. ' it, and people think that the Netherworld is a horrible place. It, I can't even swear when I am thinking! That ship is going to suffer…' Laharl thinks to himself.

It doesn't take him long to get to the ship, it was only a couple hundred feet away. Laharl then pulls out his cosmic blade, only to realize that it has been replaced with a candy cane. 'All right, they can make it so that I can't swear, they can send me a seven year old terror, and they can put me through a worse sight than Etna's latest victim, but the second you mess with my sword, it is go time.' Laharl thought, beginning to seethe. Laharl put the candy cane back, hoping it would turn back to a cosmic blade when he returned, and raised his fist to punch the ship. "STOP FIEND" Yelled a voice behind Laharl. Laharl stopped, and turned around. 'This just isn't one of my days…' Laharl thought to himself, as he saw who was there.

"When evil and vile creatures stalk the world, we come onto them in an unsuspecting fury of righteousness!" Said a figure in red. "For we are…" said a figure in blue. "The Prism Rangers!" said a yellow figure stepping up.

"Didn't I already get rid of you three?" Laharl asked.

"No, you probably would have lost to us, for we have never lost a match!" Said the one in red.

"Yeah, I am pretty sure I kicked all three of you es when I was becoming the Overlord. I really hate that Censor Ship!" Laharl yelled the last part out.

The three of them look at each other, and huddle together and talk in whispers, which Laharl can still hear because of his pointy ears. "Ok, I am starting to remember him. Isn't he the one who was with the pink haired girl who shot you two?" The red one was whispering.

"Yeah, I should know, I still have the scar from where that one bullet hit me." Whispered the yellow one.

"Well, we still have to fight him for the good of this place; after all, we are the PRISM RANGERS!" The blue one yelled out the last part.

"Did you have to yell out the last part?" Laharl asked them.

"Wait," said the red one "Could you hear us? You must be some sort of demon!" He yelled out the last part.

"Let me get this straight," Laharl started to say "We encountered in the Netherworld, where we told you were told I was a demon, second, I have pointy ears, my cape flaps in the wind when there is NO wind, and I have a pair of wings. How dumb are you to not notice I am a demon!" Laharl asked them.

The yellow one spoke up first. "So…are you a demon?" He asked Laharl

"YES IT, I AM A ING DEMON! ARE YOU THREE REALLY THAT STUPID?" Laharl was wheezing by the time he was finished screaming, and when he got his breathe back, he said "You know what; I don't really want you to answer that question."

The blue and yellow rangers got next to each other, and started to whisper to one another, but Laharl could still hear them. "Hey, Yellow, do you think this kid is really a demon?" Blue whispered

"I don't really know Blue, he says he is, but I just can't be too sure. You know how it is, those Goths who pretend to be demons and vampires, because they hate their lives or something. He could just be one of those." Yellow whispered to blue. "But, regardless, we have to stop him from destroying that ship! It keeps this place cleaner than most, so we have to save this place! Are you with us Red?" Both of the rangers wait a second, and then when they don't hear any response, they turn around and notice that the red ranger is gone.

"Blue, do you know where red went?" Yellow asked as he searched the area.

"No idea yellow, but wait!" said Blue as he bent over and picked up a piece of paper. "Here is a letter, and it is in red's handwriting! 'Dear Blue and Yellow, I am sorry to inform you that my kidneys are failing, and I am unable to fight the demon with you. I deeply regret having to leave you, but I will fight with you two in our next battle against evil! Love, your comrade, Red. P.S. Don't get killed.' Wow, Yellow, I feel sorry for Red, having his kidneys fail right before a fight with a demon that might be a Goth. Oh well, it can't be helped. We have to stop this kid!"

When the two rangers turned around, they saw a red aura around Laharl. "DID…YOU…JUST…CALL…ME…A…GOTH?" Laharl screamed out. However, Laharl was also thinking about how stupid these guys are. 'Do they actually believe he left because of a pair of failing kidneys? The guy would be dead or dieing right here if that was the case.'

"Blue, we have to stop this demon!" Yellow yelled out. After he yelled that, both of the rangers charged at Laharl.

"I will make this quick." Laharl said, right before he jumped so high into the sky that you can't see him.

Blue and Yellow just look at each other. "Did he run away Yellow?" Blue asked him.

"I think so." Yellow told his companion. "Guarding this ship is easier than I thought!"

"Think again you fools!" Yelled a voice from above the two rangers. Both of the rangers look up, and they see that Laharl is riding a meteor straight at them.

"Yellow, I only have one word to say. !" Blue yelled, right before the meteor came crashing down into them, and catching the Censor Ship in the blast.

"That is what you get for pissing me off." Laharl said. Laharl then realizes something. "Wait…Damn it…YES! I can swear again, it can be a pain not to! It feels good to be complete again." Laharl said in a satisfied tone.

Then a pink vortex comes from the air, and swallows up Laharl. A voice booms inside the vortex, and says "YOU HAVE VISITED VIOLENCE IN CANDYLAND! NOW YOU MUST BE PUNISHED!"

Laharl then pulls out his candy cane, and notices that it has turned back into a cosmic blade. "I have a better idea." Laharl says. "If you put me in the bed in my temporary home, I won't hack you to little bits with this sword, deal?"

The pink vortex seems to stop for a second, and then mumbles something about never fighting before, and then it says, "I AGREE! I HAVE NEVER FOUGHT SOMEONE BEFORE, AND I AM SCARED I WOULD BE A LITTLE WUSS. SO GOODNIGHT!"

Saying that, Laharl landed in a dark room, with grey walls, and a lit fireplace. He landed on top of a bed that had no one in it, and realized that this was probably the room he was left with. It had a nice sage green carpet, and grey stone walls, and it also had a great view of the outside. 'For being given leftovers, this room isn't that bad.' Laharl thought to himself. Then, he got under the covers, and pulled a blanket over him to go to sleep. Before he could go to sleep however, he realized something. 'I have no idea where I am in this damn castle!'

General Badaxe- I would like to apologize to any Goth out there who found what we wrote offensive. I don't need to deal with a bunch of hate reviews. R.E.-Wolf isn't up right now, because I finished this chapter at 1 in the morning. I really need sleep too, so I decided to end it here. I turned on anonymous review too, just in case you people who want to remain secret want to leave a flame, you can. If you do leave a flame, could you at least tell me why you hated it? That way, I don't make the same mistake again. Unless you just hate it because of the different characters, if you hate it because of that, just stop reading. Those people aren't going to leave.
