I'm back! Mwhahaha. There's still a lot of things to be explained and a lot of things you won't get yet but just you wait and everything will fall into place. Thanks for the reviews Kitkat! =^-^= It makes me so happy to see them. Good bye for now my pretties.


"Hotsuma!" Shusei yelled as he heard the quick steps of the other Zweilts in the room, "Watch out!"

Hotsuma moved to the right just in time to barely miss a flame aimed at him. Cory threw another perfectly aimed flame at him. Hotsuma dodge again and everything was once again dark. They heard the scurrying of footsteps and another flame was aimed. Shusei looked around and realized he wasn't being attacked.

"Hotsuma we need to move!" Shusei warned and the both of them jumped out of the way just as a blue light appeared and a cage appeared that would have trapped them both. Something caught Shusei's eyes.

"Hotsuma there's torches!" Shusei said in the dark, "Light them up so we can see. They're along the walls at every o'clock!"

Hotsuma shot fire at each torch and soon the room had a dim light in it so they could see where they were going. Adam and Cory were standing around them. They had their weapons drawn and Shusei and Hotsuma did the same. They were about to start fighting together when a blow came through the floor and they fell down.

Once again they were plunged into darkness. The small light they had found not strong enough to light where they were beneath.

"Light up everything you can," Shusei said, "quickly."

"I don't know where you are!" Hotsuma yelled, "I might hit you!"

"It doesn't matter!" Shusei yelled, "I'd rather get burnt than get killed!"

Hotsuma raised his hands to set everything on fire but looked out into the dark. Could he really hurt Shusei again like he had before? He couldn't even forgive himself for accidently hurting him, what was he going to do if he was forced to do it on purpose?

"Hotsuma, Now!" Shusei yelled from somewhere in the darkness.

He lit everything up.


"Tsukumo?" Toko asked shakily.

"Yes?" he asked quietly.

"What do we do?" she asked as they came closer.

Tsukumo tried to think of something when they hit the wall.

"Do you trust us?" Danny said almost silently to Tsukumo, "We're not here to hurt you."

"It doesn't look like that," Tsukumo said almost silently back.

"Trust us," Danny demanded, "it's the only way we're getting out alive."

"What do we need to do?" Tsukumo asked finally.

"Go left," Danny commanded, "Kill anything you see that doesn't make noise."

"That doesn't what?" Tsukumo asked.

"Make noise," Danny hissed, "Hurry!"

Toko, Tsukumo said to his sister, Go left and kill anything that doesn't make noise. If it makes noise leave it alone.

"What?" Toko asked disbelievingly.

Trust me, Tsukumo said.

Toko nodded her head once and they both jerked to the right coming up on several disturbing people. Each one of them looked like Danny or Jack but neither was even breathing. True to their word they destroyed them, not knowing what was going on. One came to their left and Tsukumo shot at it. They looked over to see Danny fighting the doppelgangers on the right side of the room. Once most of them were destroyed they looked over at Danny and Jack.

"What's going on?!" Toko panicked.

"It wasn't Jack," Danny explained, "The person following us in the hallway wasn't him. I don't know what's going on but there are doppelgangers everywhere."

"But Jack talked in the hallway," Tsukumo said, "how could you have known it wasn't him?"

"The voice was too deep," Danny explained, "it's not usually that deep."

"How did you know it wasn't just a throat ache or something?" Tsukumo questioned.

Danny looked like he was debating something.

"Well?" Toko demanded.

"We sleep in the same bed okay?" Danny finally admitted, "I'm the first person to see him in the morning and he was fine! I know my partner!"

"Fine," Tsukumo said, "But where is he?"

"I don't know," Danny admitted again, "He was there during breakfast."

"Speaking of breakfast," Toko murdered at the sound of Tsukumo's stomach.

"That's where I was supposed to take you before Nikki changed coordinates," Danny explained, "But now I'm thinking it wasn't Nikki after all."


"I've lost sight of Hotsuma and Shusei," Senshirou called to Kuroto, "Hotsuma lit the whole room up in flames."

"What?" Kuroto stopped trying to dismantle the air vent for a second.

"And Tsukumo and Toko fell through a hole," Senshirou called, "I can barely see them but it looks like their fighting Jack and Danny over and over again. Every time they take them down, they heal and get back up again."

"Dammit!" Kuroto yelled and kicked the air vent screen which broke under the pressure of his kick.

"At least we found the way out," Senshirou said trying to calm him down, "we can go and help them now."

"How are Luka and Yuki holding up?" Kuroto asked.

Senshirou said nothing.

"Senshirou?" Kuroto asked.

"They're unconscious and it doesn't look like they're breathing," Senshirou finally said quietly, "we need to focus on Hotsuma and Shusei. It looks like Tsukumo and Toko are okay and Yuki and Luka look dead. We need to help those that might still be alive."

"Damn it," Kuroto said again, "C'mon let's get out of here."

They started to crawl through the vents but without knowing where they were, it was a blind effort. They finally found an outing and Kuroto started to break through the vent.

"Did you hear that?" a voice said from down the hall.

"Yeah I heard it," another said and Kuroto froze in panic.

If they got caught they couldn't help anyone. They'd be as good as dead. He drew Senshirou close to him and held him tight. The footsteps got closer and finally Leslie and a man they didn't know were under the vents.

"I'm sure I heard something," the man said.

"So did I," Leslie said frowning, "like metal being hit, but there's none here."

Kuroto clutched Senshirou and leaned down, catching his lips.

I love you, Kuroto mouthed, I'm sorry.

"But the only metal is in the air-," the man said and then he looked up.


Are you ready for more yet? Than you'd better review. :P
