And here's chapter 13!

Pikachu: Unlucky 13…you should've updated on Friday!

I should have, but I didn't. So, well, more with our troopers, a little look into what Nox and Marth in the lowest level are up to, and, well, you'll find out soon enough! XD

Falco: Oh brother…-.-

Hey! Anyways, D.K., why don't you disclaim?

D.K.: RF doesn't own us, SSBM, the Devils or their King, and your immortal OCs (including Nox's heir), but she does own The Demon King (and his Shadow), Sally Lune, Young Link's friend Bridgett, Bridgett's older sister Annette, the Hands' true forms, other angels and demons that don't belong to you guys and one specific devil that will be mentioned eventually, and the Underworld Realm.

Heh, but uh…before we go, I just have to say, Nintendo4ever (and the rest of you who have been most likely thinking "When will she update?"), here it is! I would explain why I decided to delay, but it'd take too long…XD

Well, that's all from us for now! Chapter away!

The twelfth level was another battle level, and the five smashers were quick to notice that while the devils' strength and weaknesses hadn't changed, it took a little longer to kill them off.

"What's that about?" Pikachu asked after the doorway opened.

"I told you the fights would get harder," Jeffrey said. "Every ten levels we descend, the devils get harder to kill. They most likely won't get stronger; instead their life points get higher."

"Probably because we're going deeper and deeper into their world," Roy assumed. Jeffrey nodded.

"Indeed," The Guide said. "Now, shall we go on?"

The six failed, however, to notice the demon that was observing them. After the group headed to the next level, the said demon still remained in the corner, watching the doorway with intense eyes.

He said nothing, and teleported back to Nox; his mission now complete.

They reached the thirtieth floor, and just finished a battle against twenty demons.

"Can we rest?" Pikachu asked. "I mean, we just went down about twenty floors without resting!"

"Let us go one more floor," Jeffrey said. "There is something I have to show you; something you all should never forget."

The six walked through the doorway, and hit the thirty-first floor, but there were no enemies or trials. Instead, off to their left, there was a cave entrance, twice the height of Ganondorf.

"What is this?" Zelda asked as they walked up to the cave entrance.

"This is the Fire Cavern; it is the only home of the Red Leaf Herb, a special herb used to make the Ancient Elixir that cures the Angel Toxicosis," Jeffrey replied. "There are no obstacles barring the way, however, the cave is very long, and the Herb grows in the very back."

"The Red Leaf Herb…" Pikachu muttered. "So if someone needs to cure an angel, they have to go through the Underworld? Talk about a drag!"

"I have a question, though," Yoshi said. "What if someone went and got all the Herbs right now and made the Elixir…wouldn't that be better?"

"The Elixir is both strong and frail," Jeffrey said, shaking his head. "Strong in its magical power, in which it can renew an angel's lost soul, no matter how much of it has vanished…and frail in its inability to strive, or "live", one might say, in any of the three realms; it cannot be taken if held out for even one day."

"They think of everything, don't they?" Mario asked bitterly. "I feel so sorry for the angels!"

"That's because of Lucifer," Jeffrey stated. Mario blinked. "However, now is not the time to explain. I hope I never have to, in fact. So, shall we take a small break?"

The demon appeared on the 150th floor and looked around. The spirit of the angel was no longer hanging from the ceiling, and he assumed that the large black flames in the corner of the level had something to do with the angel's location. Syleen had left, and Nox was watching the black flames.

The flames died down, revealing the angel, who was clearly in pain despite being a spirit. He was chained to the corner, but a snap of Nox's fingers made the chains vanish, and the spirit fell to the ground, panting.

"Ah, you're back," The shadow turned and focused on the demon. "What do you have to report?"

"There are six of them, Shadow Demon Nox; one of them the Guide Jeffrey Hand and the other five mortals," The demon said. "One with red hair and blue eyes, wielding a sword, a mouse that appears to be a Pikachu, a green dinosaur that looks to be a yoshi, a royal looking female with blue eyes and long blond hair, and a man with a red hat with a "M" on it."

"I see."

"Is this a problem?"

"Not at all. In fact, I couldn't be any happier. Dismissed." The demon vanished from the level, and Nox turned to the angel. "Looks like five of your friends and Jeffrey are trying to come here. What a fun situation this has become; isn't your brother among them?"

"Just what are you implying?" Marth asked, pulling out his blackened angel wings and taking to the air. "You're going to let them come down here, and then kill them in front of my eyes?"

"Well, that's if they can actually make it down here," The Shadow said.

"I have faith in them."

"I'm sure you do," Nox said, sounding bored. "But you know they can't kill me."

"That's because they already did, in case you failed to notice," Marth said, a small smirk on his face.

"You think you're so wise, don't you?" The Shadow fumed. "But…I guess a spy must be of that attitude, right Renegade Spy?"

"Don't call me that!"

"Let me guess, you're going to keep your new job a secret as well. Make sure that your "friends" are nestled and safe with their denial—"

"That's not true," The angel interrupted. "I will tell them."

"That's what you say, but who am I to judge?" The shadow muttered. "You'll be back here soon enough; perhaps you'll find your place then. But my, wasn't Lucifer nice enough to let you change your job despite being a spirit?" The prince made no reply. "I still can't believe Syleen didn't want you! But we lost many of your kind during the war, we do need all the help we can muster. Isn't it nice to know you're needed, spy?

"I said don't call me that!"

Nox snapped his fingers again, and Marth was forced back to the wall. "You did, didn't you? But know this, and remember it well; down here, I have all the power, and you have none." Marth glared, but chose not to reply. "Very well! Very well! Ignore me; I see you would rather play with the black flames instead."

A few seconds later, it took everything the prince had to not cry out in pain.

Up on the thirty-first floor, Jeffrey suddenly stood up with a frown.

"We are moving on," He said. The other five nodded and stood up.

Within a second, the six had traveled through the doorway.

Once again, they failed to notice the demon watching them. This demon, who was the same one who was watching them before, gave a chuckle before following them.

And so the descent continued…

Yoshi: The chapter's over! Woo!

Falcon: RF apologizes if the chapter seems rushed, or bad, or anything. She wasn't too sure with this one. However, the next ones should be back up to par. Not to mention she has yet ANOTHER surprise for everyone!

Marth: But just to clarify: while the group was going through levels 20-30, Lucifer is informed that Syleen doesn't want an angel servant. Good news for me, since I was able to lose the black wings, but since Syleen's not on the throne yet, it's bad news for my family.

Yoshi: So in order to keep the still out of control demons away, Marth had to take on another job, which is spying. It just means that Marth has to inform Lucifer (and soon enough Syleen) if the mortals or the angels are planning an attack or are up to something that can harm the devils and demons.

Falcon: So that's that. Until the next update, review!
