I promised someone that I'd write fifteen chapters while she left from today to the 28th. I'm not going to write fifteen chapters. I'm going to write much more. The following chapters are dedicated to her.

A World Deep in Disorder

Chapter Eighteen: Into the City

Well, enough was said above… let the chapter barrage begin!

Last Time: The two defeated the demon, and the fog dispersed. They then continued over the plains toward Grandville…

Kyle/Alyssa Saga Chapter XII:

"So…what was up with that demon-thing?" Alyssa asked. "Pure hatred. It's when something so incredibly evil comes by so full of hate, that the hate takes actual form, and wanders the land, killing all it hates." Kyle stated. "Did you study these or something?" Alyssa asked, stunned by the fact Kyle knew all this. "Nope. My eyes look different for a reason. Not only do they provide me with better eyesight and the ability to not sleep if I wanted, but they also let me scan foes for power levels… description… etc." Kyle explained. "No fair." Alyssa said in a joking manner. "Well, it's because of these eyes that people can tell that I'm a greater god. That's why I have to wear the shades that my uncle left to me. They cover my eyes, so I have a chance of fitting in." Kyle replied. Alyssa nodded. "I still don't see why people hate you… you're the best person I know… not only that, but your eyes are cool…so why'd they hate you?" She asked. Kyle shook his head. "I'd like to say that Kirth gave the greater god thing a bad name. Now, everything more powerful than human is looked down upon, I guess. They're afraid of what I can do. After all, who'd want to have two Kirth's around?" He asked. Alyssa nodded. "I guess so…but they judge you before they know you…" She frowned. "Not like I haven't gotten used to it. Don't worry. I'll be fine. As soon as the news gets around that I killed Kirth, perhaps I'll be accepted." Kyle replied. Alyssa nodded.

Suddenly, they came upon a small hill. "This should be it." Kyle stated, as the two walked up the hill. At the top, they saw Grandville. The hugeass megametropolis surrounded by a really big wall. At each of the gates stood two guards. "Well…it's already 4:30A.M… we need some rest." Alyssa stated. Suddenly she paused. "I mean…I need some rest." She said, after realizing that Kyle doesn't need sleep.

"Well, just because I don't need sleep doesn't mean that sleep doesn't restore my energy. We've walked for an unbearably long amount of time, so I could use the rest pretty much as much as you." Kyle added in. Alyssa nodded. "One problem, though… we don't have many coins left…at all. To make it in the big city, we need a lot more cash…" She sighed. Kyle smirked. "…And I have the perfect way." He stated, with a grin on his face that looked like he was about to have lots of fun…of the maniacal type.

"…And that way is?" Alyssa asked. "Grandville is ever famous for its great tournaments. We join one, kick the crap out of everyone, and win money. Use some of your money for a room at the inn, then gamble the rest of it on the tournament." Kyle replied. "But aren't the best fighters from all over going to be in Grandville?" Alyssa asked. Kyle looked at her. "It's me, remember? I'm a greater god. Besides, you don't have to fight me. We'll enter the 2-on-2's. Nobody can beat the two of us together, no matter what team they've assembled." He said with confidence. "You're right. Let's win some money." Alyssa replied, smiling. "Besides, what better place to find worthy fighters who can lend us their aid?" Kyle asked. The two then walked over to the closest gate in Grandville's walls.

"Whoa there! You in the shades…you look suspicious. I can't let anyone suspicious enter." One of the soldiers stated. 'Crap. If I remove my shades, I'll be in deep shit. If I don't, I'll still be in deep shit. Either that, or I knock these two out. Each way's gonna have to end with me fighting, and I don't want to drag Lyss into a conflict against the body of Grandville…' Kyle thought.

"Excuse me, sir, but those are his… prescription shades. He needs them for his… poor eyesight." Alyssa said to the guards. It was a lie, but Alyssa was good with persuasion, and she knew how the human mind works, so if the guard needed anymore talk, Alyssa wouldn't have to much trouble convincing him in the end.

The first guard looked the second, and each of them nodded to each other. "You may pass." Guard two said, as the gate behind him began to open. "Sorry, miss, sir. We've had to beef up security ever since the rogues have appeared." The first Guard said to both Kyle and Alyssa, who each nodded to him. "Besides, we know that anyone who could be with her isn't evil." The second guard said to the first, as both Kyle and Alyssa passed through.

"That was a bit too easy." Alyssa sighed. "With guards like that, they probably already have rogue spies within the walls." Kyle replied. "You know… you're right! If they can let in a guy with shades who comes at 4:30 in the morning, then they probably already do have…" Alyssa exclaimed, before she stopped mid-sentence. "…Where's the Inn?" Alyssa asked. Kyle tipped his shades down, and looked around for the inn. "That way." Kyle then said. The two quickly reached the inn, and got the single room like before… and they slept until two in the afternoon…

End of Chapter

Sorry it may have been a tad short, but there'll be plenty more today where that came from. I'm taking a short break, so review for me, please! Next chapter: The tournament begins.

Until Next Chapter,
