Chapter 15: Get Out

'Dino' continued, "The moment they step out of their cages they are able to take their bodies back. However…" 'Dino' slumped his shoulders and then let his head fall. He began to chuckle. Louder…and louder…Suddenly his head jerked up and he began to laugh insanely. Then it quietened down and he turned to Reborn. "After they break out of the cages there's a heavy battle between them and their darker selves."

"Darker selves? Like demons inside them or something?" Reborn frowned.

"Not exactly," 'Minerva' chuckled, "It's just the part of them that doesn't care."

"I don't get it."

"Let's take you for an example. Right now, you're worried about the real Dino, Squalo and Minerva right? If right now I took over your body and you quickly got out of your cage, you would face yourself. That side of yourself is somewhat stronger than you because it doesn't care what happens to you or the others," 'Squalo' explained.

Squalo continuously kicked the cage with his all his rage, "GOD DAMMIT IT'S NOT BUDGING!"

"No scratches at all…?" Dino stared at him through his cage.

"If this is a mind world, shouldn't Minerva be able to create things of her own will…?" Squalo suddenly stopped.

"Really?!" Dino looked at Minerva.

"It should work…I haven't tried yet and I don't know how to do it," Minerva frowned.

Dino thought about it for a moment, "What if you just made doors on your cage and then wouldn't we be out of here?"

'Dino' dived towards Reborn and he jumped up, spinning himself and kicking 'Dino' in the face. 'Dino' lost his balance and rolled on the ground as 'Minerva' raised the sword. "You really are terrible at using the sword, aren't you?" Reborn held on to his fedora while Leon crawled on to his round hand. Leon transformed and then Reborn pointed the gun at 'Minerva'.

His finger pulled the trigger and there was a loud bang as 'Squalo' fell to the ground with a cocky smirk on his face. He held on to his stomach and breathed heavily, "You may have forgotten, but Minerva is still my boss. I have to protect her."

Reborn didn't waver, "And you don't even realise how stupid that method i-"

"GUH!" everyone turned around to see 'Dino' on his knees with his fingers through his hair. "Bastard!" 'Dino' growled through his tightly gritted teeth. "How did you get out?!"

A smirk came across Reborn's face, "They got out huh?"

Moscio sat on the wooden chair with his legs half crossed and leaned his elbow on the rest while twiddling his second and middle fingers. Dino appeared out of no where and fell on the green tiles. "Ah, you broke out?" Moscio stood up from the chair.

Dino stood up and immediately frowned, "Give me back my body."

"I'm not the one you're getting your body back from," Moscio snickered and stepped to one side. He raised one knee as though he was in the middle of a leap and suddenly he disappeared, leaving behind an echo of words. "It's your time to shine, Dino."

Squalo found himself lying on dirt in the middle of the forest. He sat up and looked up at the grey and cloudy sky, "Is this…my mind world?" He heard something fall, but then it was too late. Moscio fell from the sky and pinned him down on the ground with a sword. "What the?!" Above, Moscio toward over Squalo and then walked away, "Your time has come, Squalo."

The stench of dried blood on rusted chains tainted the atmosphere. Crimson red ran from Minerva's wrists down her arms and dripped on to the royal purple tile below her. No where did she see Moscio, nor did she hear his footsteps. Suddenly there was clacking on the ground. No, it wasn't loud, it wasn't men's shoes. It was the clacking of school shoes.

"My my Minerva, been a while hasn't it?" a young woman walked out of the jet black darkness and into the dim purple light. Her wavy red hair fell in front of the sides of her face, framing the wide smirk on the woman's face. Unbuttoned and tied shirt, the messy hair and the wild eyes made Minerva recognise her. The woman let go of her hip then walked closer towards Minerva.

"Who are you?" it felt like there was something in Minerva's throat.

"Don't play dumb, you remember me," the woman grasped Minerva's neck but didn't squeeze. But Minerva knew very well that one idiot ass move and she'd tighten her grip.

"You're me aren't you? You look like me just like that time…"

"Ding," the woman clicked her tongue. "It was that time that I first came out. I should probably thank those nerdy freaks for letting me out. It was fun, ramming through all those guys and climbing up that rusty metal ladder like a desperate tiger."

Reborn watched the three teenagers on the ground struggling. He knew exactly what was going on. What was it again? He watched them fight the sides of them that 'didn't care'. Besides the three of them groaning and panting, there was absolute silence at the ruins of Sontuoso Castle.

Dino spun around and his blonde hair followed his motion. Behind him there was…him. The exact same guy. Though, they were different. "'Sup Dino," it folded his arms.

"Do I have to fight you or something?" Dino frowned.

"100% on target, Useless Dino. That's right, we're fighting to see who takes over the body."

"But you're me! You should understand my feelings!"

"That has nothing to do with it," 'Dino' clicked his tongue and waved his finger around, "Tell anyone that and I won't spare you. I'm not you. I'm someone else," a tornado of shadows surrounded him and then the blackness withered away. Dino's eyes widened and he took a step back. Right in front of him was that guy.

Morte.

There was a loud clang as a sword twirled and flew up into the air. It fell back down and stabbed the ground. Squalo raised his sword again and prepared to slice his other self in half. The sword came in contact with the other Squalo's hip and then…

Bang.

His sight suddenly flashed into white and everything withered away into nothingness.

Squalo's eyelids flew open and the world around him was blurry. There was a small shadow above him and he heard a baby's voice, "Welcome back, Squalo."

I cannot judge whether or not this is a cliff hanger…-sigh- I reckon I've studied enough for tomorrow….

Please review! :D
