24: The Lost Halls

In the Ying-Yang world…

"Once again…" sighed Raimundo "We're back in this strange world where everything weird happens…"

"It's not too bad" said Dojo "At least I don't have to fly here"

"Ugh…" groaned Ryan as he rested his face against the cockpit window, "I don't feel so good…"

"Ryan? You okay?" said Kimiko. Ryan groaned as he looked at her, she raised her eyebrow at him.

"Ryan? You don't look too good…" said Clay "You look greener than a field of green peas on St. Patrick's day"

"I'm…fine…" groaned Ryan "I'm just a bit…dizzy…"

"Hmm…" said Colza as she climbed onto his lap, "Ryan seems to suffer from Dimension Sickness, one in twenty people suffer from this, it's like Sea Sickness, but only when you cross dimensions"

"Whatever…" groaned Ryan "Can we land this thing?"

"Sure" said Omi as the controls began to shake, "I think the Ying-Yang world beginning to affect the Silver Manta Ray"

Omi steered the Silver Manta Ray to the ground and they all jumped out onto the smoky ground.

"Ahem…" coughed Ryan "Much better…Now where do we go now?"

They all looked around them; smoky mist covered the ground and strange Chinese symbols floated in the black sky.

"Man…" said Ryan "This place is weird…"

"This is only the beginning…" sighed Raimundo as he walked forward into a large cloud that was blowing towards them. He stepped into the cloud, there was a sudden gust of wind and the cloud dispersed into nothing.

"Whoa!" gasped Ryan "The hell? Where did he go?"

"Over here!" called Raimundo. They all turned around and in the distance was Raimundo, who was waving to them.

"How did he get over there?" gasped Ryan.

"No one knows…" said Kimiko.

"And no one will ever know…" said Dojo.

They walked for hours; they walked through vast misty plains that went on forever, they came to a rocky empty place where the huge prison complex sat in the centre, the same prison which held Hannibal for 1500 years. They walked down the endless corridors of the Chi room, thousands and thousands of bottles lined the shelves around them.

"Man…" said Ryan "This place is getting weirder by the second"

"Where are we actually going?" said Raimundo "We have been walking aimlessly around this place for hours"

"I think we're almost there" said Dojo as he slivered towards one of the shelves, in the middle of all the bluish purple bottles, was a dark scarlet red bottle.

"What's this?" said Kimiko as she looked at the bottle, "This isn't a normal Chi bottle…"

Dojo reached out to touch it, as soon as his fingers touched it; they were swallowed by a bright flash. As the light died down, they saw they were no longer in the Chi room, but standing on a cliff top over looking a vast canyon.

"Where are we now?" said Omi as he looked down, off the cliff edge. The canyon seemed to be so deep that they couldn't see the bottom, but that was impossible because a thick cloud of smoke covered the void of the canyon, filling it to the top.

"We're here" said Colza "The Lost Halls"

They all looked around; there was no sign of anything that resembled a Lost Hall, not even a normal hall.

"Over there…" sighed Colza as she pointed into the canyon. They all looked down into the misty canyon and gasped; the clouds were slowly thinning out, revealing a huge castle that filled the entire canyon.

"Oh my god…" gasped Raimundo as all of their jaws dropped, "That castle's huge!"

"The Lost Halls" said Dojo "A huge storage complex that is large enough to hold the world itself, if you need something hidden until the end of time or protected from evil, this is the place!"

"It's so big, no one has ever came out of it" said Colza "Plus it is filled with monsters and magic that guard the corridors"

"Hey! Look!" said Omi as he pointed down towards one of the castle entrances, "It's Jack, Wuya and Chase!"

They all looked down at the castle, just as Omi said; Chase, Wuya and Jack were trying to make their way into the magical complex.

"Huh?" said Wuya as she looked up at the cliff.

"What's wrong Wuya?" said Chase as Jack managed to cut through the door with a laser.

"It seems we have unwanted company" said Wuya as she narrowed her eyes at the dragons as Clay tied his rope to the cliff top and began to climb down the cliff.

"Don't worry about them…" said Jack as he pushed the wall to reveal a hole to get inside, "I know just what can get rid of them…Just leave it to me…"

"Watch yourself Kimiko" said Ryan as Kimiko shimmied down the last part of the rope, she let go of it and fell into Ryan's arms where he gently lowered her to the ground.

"Looks like they're already in" said Dojo as he examined the hole, "Billions of years of magic and it have beaten by modern technology…"

"Come on" said Ryan as he stepped through the hole, "Let's go and see what we can find…"

They all walked through the dark corridors of the Lost Halls; there was an eerie silence as their footsteps echoed on the ground.

"Guys…" said Kimiko as she clung to Ryan, "This place is creeping me out…"

"Me too…" said Clay "This place is creepier than Aunty May…"

"…In a sponge bath" sighed Raimundo "Don't remind me…"

"Hey, look!" said Ryan as he pointed to a partially open door, "I think we have to go this way…"

He opened the door slowly, and it came open as two large suits of armour fell through the doorway and fell on the floor. Kimiko screamed as one of the figures heads fell off and rolled across the floor towards her. She dived behind Ryan as a pair of red eyes stared up at them.

"What the hell is that?" cried Kimiko. Omi cautiously walked towards the helmet and picked it up; a tiny puff of dust came out as the red glowing eyes disappeared.

"Hmm…" thought Dojo as he examined the helmet, "It seems to a Magi-Knight"

"A Magi-Knight?" said Raimundo as he gave one of the suits a kick.

"A suit of armour powered by magic" said Dojo, "Used to guard to corridors of the Lost Halls"

"They didn't last long" said Ryan as he lifted up one of the suits of armour, it was a dark blue with thin gold markings on it and a large burn hole, right through the middle of its chest, "Look's like Chase and Wuya busted them pretty bad…"

"Oh my god…" gasped Kimiko, they turned around to see her looking through the door they just opened. They all stuck their head through the door and gasped themselves at what they saw. A huge room filled with glass cases, each one had a strange, unidentifiable object in them.

"Whoa…" gasped Ryan as they walked into the room, "It's like a…a museum…"

"This is one of the storage rooms" said Colza as she examined a sign was written in an unknown language, "Floor 1, Room 1628622647 to be exact"

"This is most amazing!" said Omi as he walked past the rows of glass cases, "The objects here are most wondrous, the Holy Grail, the Grim Reaper's Scythe, the long lost deleted scenes of the original Star Wars Trilogy!"

"This place is just a big storage dump for dangerous, powerful or mysterious items" said Ryan as he took a good look at a shard of a long black sword that hovered in the air and gave off a green glow.

"Well whatever…" sighed Raimundo "What about Jack and the others? We need to catch up to them"

"Yeah, okay" said Ryan as he looked up at him, "Come on guys, we can look at this stuff after we have found Chase"

"Do you think they will find the Eclipse Reactor?" said Kimiko as they headed to a door on the opposite side on the room. Ryan shrugged his shoulders as they reached the door and unlocked it.

"They know where it is as must as we do" said Dojo "So it is best if we find them and stop them"

"Shh!" shushed Clay "I hear someone!"

The all went quite as the sounds of other people ahead of them echoed down the endless corridors.

"Jack will you please stop hugging me!" yelled Wuya's voice. There was the sound of someone being pushed to the ground.

"I can't help it…" whined Jack's voice "I'm scared of the dark…"

There was the sound of Chase mumbling something followed by Jack whining,

"I'm not whiny!"

"That's them alright" said Ryan as they all headed down the corridor towards them, "Let's go!"

The Ying-Yang world is weird…R&R!
