Chapter 5
Death Note
The group continued to move through the strange land, as they did they couldn't help but get the feeling that they were being followed. The group looked all around them but saw no one and the large rift in the sky was increasing in size. The group continued to move as fast as they could as time began to run out on them. This Mandala that was causing this disturbance had to be close yet they weren't sure what it was they were looking for .They continued moving forward and then they found a black stone obelisk like structure that was surrounded by Hexes. The Hexes were busy fighting off a woman with long ears and strange cloths, she was wielding a sword and managed to actually hold her ground against them. However a snake like Hex suddenly appeared and with it's tail knocked her into a wall. The group immediately sprung into action and drew their weapons, the formed around the girl as she stared up at them.
"Who are you?" asked the girl.
"It's a long story" said Snow.
"So what are you then?" asked Doctor.
"We are the Hexes" said one of the Hexes soldiers.
"It spoke" said Mir.
"That is odd, they have never in recorded history spoken any kind of language before" said Pan.
"Could it mean that their getting stronger" said Joy.
"You know these things?" questioned Syaoran Two.
"They're the faithful servants of Michel, they follow him and carry out his will" said Mir.
"Basically our enemies" said Lyner.
The Hexes laughed at them and the snake Hex made a hissing sound that sounded like a laugh.
"What is so funny?" asked Etna.
"You think that we serve Michel, he is also a servant of our true masters" said the Hex.
"True Masters, who are you talking about?" asked Maria.
"You don't know about our masters, how entertaining and you're meant to stop us" said the Hex.
The Hexes then laughed even more as the group became frustrated.
"What do you want?" asked Doctor.
"This world will burn, once the operations of the Mandala have been completed this world and that one shall be engulfed in flames, that is what we desire" said the Hex.
"So this entire world and that one are in danger, thank you, that's all I needed to know" said Doctor.
"We need to turn of that Mandala" said Syaoran.
"Leave it to me, I have a thing about violence so I'll handle that Mandala" said Doctor..
"Not alone you maniac" said Mis.
"We'll help you Doctor" said Joy.
"Alright, so what's your name kid?" asked Train.
"My name is Selenia" said the girl.
"Selenia we need your help" said Amu.
"Here is the plan, we'll distract the Hexes and hold them off while the Demis and the Doctor stop the Mandala" said Lucas.
"Good plan" said Aigis.
"Can you stand?" asked Au as she helped Selenia up.
"Yes but what the heck is a Mandala and who the hell are you" said Selenia.
"That large object is called a Mandala and it is causing the rift in the sky, as for us my name is Lucas and these are my friends" he said as he pulled out his sword.
Selenia confused picked up her sword and got ready to fight, the group got ready as Ikuto and Amu chara transformed and Sakura summoned her star wand. Pan, Mis, Joy and the Doctor began to move toward the Mandala and the group covered them as Hexes swarmed all around them. Dante and Lucas slashed through the Hexes while Sakura and Syaoran backed up their attacks with magic. Train and Aigis and Selenia cut down any Hexes in the Doctor's way as they reached the Mandala. The Doctor and the Demis began to work as the group continued to fight and keep the Hexes off of the Doctor. The Doctor and the Demis were struggling, it was a difficult machine even for the Doctor and was riddled with wires and switches. Lucas and the others had now dispatched nearly all of the Hexes, only the large snake remained however none of their attacks seemed to be damaging the creature.
"Arrow" said Sakura as she tapped a card.
A blue woman wielding a bow then appeared,she fired an arrow at the snake which then multiplied and hit the snake. The woman then looked at the snake in shock as the arrows bounced off of the snake's skin.
"Doctor, hurry up" said Lucas.
The snake then smacked them all over the place with it's large tail, it seemed that it was invincible, the snake then tried to attack Maria. Maria closed her eyes afraid as the snake got ready to bite her, then nothing happened and Maria felt nothing, she opened her eyes to see Lucas holding back the snake with his sword. Lucas who was filled with rage then shot the inside of the snake with his gun forcing it to fall back. As the snake hissed with pain Lucas stood in front of it with his sword at the ready, as his sword became a beam of light Lucas swiftly cut through the snake. The group were surprised to say the least as she snake's body fell to the floor. The Doctor and the Demis were now al arguing on how to disarm the Mandala. This annoyed Lucas so much that he just cut through the Mandala with his new found power. The Mandala then disintegrated and the rift closed as the Demis and the Doctor looked at Lucas.
"Problem solved" he said as he put way his weapons.
However on a nearby cliff two people were sitting down watching them, they opened up a strange black book with a pen in hand and began to write names in the book. The male person wrote only the names of the people he knew of, first he wrote Advaka and then Snow Villers, Mir and Lyner Barsett, the female person with him wrote the others. All they did was write the groups names and then closed the books.
"So this is Lucas, supposedly he is an all powerful weapon" said the man.
"He doesn't look like much but does it really matter?" asked the girl.
"No, it's all over now Lucas, if only you didn't cross Michel then maybe you and you're friends could have lived a bit longer" said the man.
The two waited looking at their watches but after forty seconds nothing happened to Lucas and his friends and they continued to introduce themselves to Selenia.
"What, why aren't they dead?" questioned the girl.
"What the hell, did we write their names wrong?" questioned the man.
"No, the names we wrote are the correct names, trust me I have the eyes and our Death Notes are real as we have been killing criminals for the past week with them" said the girl.
"Oh my, this is interesting, what are you going to do Light?" asked a voice to which no one could see.
"Well, I guess I'll have to chance a confrontation with them but first drop this on the ground near them" said the man called Light as he gave his black book to an invisible creature.
The notebook then seeming flew over to them and it fell out of the sky, the group noticed this and were wondering what was going on. Lucas walked over to the notebook and picked it up, the group followed as they all gazed at the title.
"Death Note, well I could do with a note book of death" said Mir.
Lucas opened up the notebook and noticed instructions on the back of the cover, he began to read them out loud for everyone to hear.
"The person whose name is written in this notebook...shall die?" questioned Lucas.
"What the hell, that is a bit harsh" said Kurogane.
"This note will not take effect unless the writer has the persons face in their mind when writing his or her name therefore people sharing the same name will not be effected, if the cause of death is written within forty seconds of writing a persons name it will happen, if the cause of death is not specified then the person will simply die of a heart attack, after writing the cause of death details about the death should be written in the next six minutes and forty seconds" said Lucas.
"Obviously this is some kind of joke" said Etna.
"Well someone believes it, look at all these names there has to be over a hundred people in here" said Lucas.
"Someone has a lot of grudges" said Lyner.
Lucas flipped through the book until the end when he came to three more sentences.
"Here is some more, a person who uses a Death Note can neither go to heaven nor hell for eternity, if this notebook is destroyed by ripping it up or burning it then all those who have touched it will die" said Lucas.
"Tough luck for you" said Syaoran.
"There is one more, the user must kill within thirteen days or else they die" said Lucas.
"It's pretty detailed for a joke" said Amu.
"A notebook that can kill, now I've seen everything" said Doctor.
Lucas then threw the notebook onto the ground, then two people appeared one was a boy with brown hair wearing a white top, the other was an odd looking girl with blonde hair. The boy picked up the Death Note, he seemed to be it's owner and the girl was holding one as well.
"You really shouldn't treat other people's stuff like garbage" said the boy.
"I take it you are the owner of that note book" said Train.
"Indeed" said the boy.
"Who are you?" asked Selenia.
"My name is Light Yagami but you can call me Kira" said the boy.
"What a odd name, what the hell kind of name is Kira" said Dante.
"It's taken from the English word for killer" said Doctor.
"How clever of you, you are correct" said Light.
"Okay then Light or Kira or whatever you're name is, who is your friend asked Husky.
I am Misa Amane for your information, I am sure that you have heard of me said the girl.
"No sorry" said Sakura.
"It really is quite interesting, we wrote your names in the Death Note just half an hour ago and nothing" said Light.
"You mean you have tried to kill us?" questioned Aigis.
"Michel ordered it" said Misa.
"Michel?" questioned Lucas.
"He wanted to test the effects of the Death Note on people from other worlds that wield the power of the gauntlet so we are supposed to report our findings to him after we have confronted you if you had survived" said Light.
"Too bad the Death Note is a load of crap" said Train.
"You don't believe in it's power, then allow me to show you its true power up close" said Light.
A cage then floated down from out of no where, inside the cage was a man in a orange jacket, he looked like he had come from prison. The group then noticed a strange creature holding the cage, it was black with a pale face and evil looking eyes.
"What is that?" asked Snow.
"A Shinigami" said Light.
"A god of death" said Doctor.
Lucas pointed his gun at the creature but the Doctor steadily lowered it.
"Don't bother, Shinigami are on no ones side and only kill others to take their life spans, so even if you fired all of your bullets at him he would not die" said Doctor.
"Heheheheh that is correct, I didn't know Shinigami were that well known, even in parallel worlds. My name if Ryuk by the way" said the creature.
"Please get me out of here" said the man.
"This man is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people, now I will show you what Kira does to vermin like him" said Light as he began to write.
"Wait" said Syaoran Two.
"Too late" said Light as he finished writing the victim's name.
The group looked at the man, they watched as forty seconds past by b but nothing happened. The group looked at Light with a smile on their faces but then it happened, the man started gagging and foaming at the mouth, he ripped open his shirt and grabbed his chest. He collapsed onto his back as the Doctor and Lucas and several others rushed to help him, they watched in horror as he stopped breathing and laid on the floor motionless. The Doctor opened the cage with his device and they tried to revive the man but to no avail, forty seconds after writing his name the man died of a heart attack. Everyone turned and looked at Light and Misa as Light began to laugh a horrific laugh, they looked at him in disgust to the fact that he not only killed this man but hundreds more.
"You murderer" said Snow.
"MURDERER, HOW WRONG YOU ARE, I AM JUSTICE AND I WILL WIPE MURDERERS LIKE THIS MAN AND OTHER FILITH FROM MY WORLD AND THEN I SHALL BECOME THE GOD OF THAT NEW WORLD!" shouted Light.
"You killed someone when you didn't need to, your nothing but a monster, that is why Michel has recruited you" said Syaoran.
"Damn you" said Lyner as he prepared to attack Light.
"Be careful what you do, it seems I can only kill people from worlds other then my own as long as I am in the same world as them, your gauntlets may grant you immunity from the Death Note but what about your friends without them, all we need to kill them is a name in face" said Light.
"I won't miss when I shoot you so you won't get the chance to kill them" said Lucas.
"Oh so sure about that are you" said Light with an evil smile across his face.
Lucas sighed and got everyone to lower their weapons, he knew that he couldn't risk the others.
"How wise, I be sure to meet you again" said Light.
"When we meet again it will be when I plunge my sword through your murderous heart" said Lucas.
"We'll see" said Light as he, Misa and Ryuk vanished in a ray of light.
The group then decided to regroup at the Tardis, Selenia had left them by this time to check on the people in town. Everyone looked at each other with worried looks as they knew that not only was Michel still alive and that everything they had done was in vain but now new enemies have appeared with powers beyond control. Lucas emerged from the Tardis carrying the three gauntlets, he sat down and then put the gauntlets in front of him.
"This could be troublesome" said Mir.
"With the appearance of these new foes our success rate has lowered, also there is a high chance that they are not the only foes we have not encountered before" said Aigis.
"The Tardis is working fine now, I've scanned it and all functions seemed to have returned but for some reason this thing can now travel to other worlds" said Pan.
"Don't call her a thing, anyway what is even more disturbing is that something drew the Tardis to this place and caused it to shut down, that voice is still out there somewhere" said Doctor.
"We've also got three other gauntlet users to look out for" said Etna.
Maria stared at the gauntlets as thoughts popped into her head.
"Is something wrong?" asked Lucas.
"You have been quite for a while now" said Amu.
"I think I have heard that voice before" said Maria.
What questioned Snow.
"While I was Lucas' partner and in the Hexes military I heard of a secret project Michel was working on called Project H, apparently it was an attempt to create a powerful Mediem that could control all types of machines and had incredible powers, I heard one female specimen had been successfully created but I heard she is MIA" said Maria.
"What does that mean?" asked Sakura.
"Missing in action" said Train.
"I thought that she had run away like us but when I was in prison I am sure that I heard that voice and she even introduced herself as Project H" said Maria.
"What happened?" asked Aigis.
I am not sure how she got into the castle and then out of it undetected but she told me not to worry and that I would be seeing her again, she also called me sister" said Maria.
"Are you sure it's the same person?" asked Lucas.
"I'm positive, I didn't see her face but I am sure that was her voice, I couldn't mistake it said Maria.
So she brought us here to deal with the Mandala or maybe she is working with Michel, either way she could also be the one to mess with my contract and the gauntlets" said Pan.
"Then I'm going to have a few words for this Project H" said Mis.
"Okay, I think I have got an idea" said Lucas.
"What?" questioned Sakura Two.
"Okay, if the Tardis can travel to other worlds now then I want the Doctor to tract down Project H, Sakura Two, Syaoran Two and Kurogane will go with him and help track her down and capture her" said Lucas.
"Okay, but what are you going to do?" asked Kurogane.
"We'll also look for Project H, we will be two separate groups hunting the same person, with these two groups looking I am sure we will find her" said Lucas.
"We will also help anyone on the worlds we go to and stop any Hexes or Michel's goons" said Etna.
"A rather surprising heroic notion from our demon companion, we also need to look out for the three new gauntlet users" said Joy.
"I actually agree with this plan, I'll be sure to find her, after all how hard can one experiment be to find" said Doctor.
"So what will you do now?" asked Lyner.
"Well...you know us" said Ikuto.
"If your going to continue what ever it was you were doing remember to keep in line with your contract" said Mir.
"Yeah or else you could get hurt" said Amu.
"Oh are you worried about me Amu" said Ikuto.
"N..n..n., it would just be a shame to lose a good fighter" said Amu.
They all agreed and said their goodbyes, the Doctor's group departed in the Tardis while Ikuto's group departed with Mis and then Lucas' group who packed up the gauntlets and left for the next world. However in his new found hideout Michel laughed at the news of the Death Note and that they were now looking for Project H.
"Fools, let them waste their time, it will make things easier for us" said Michel.
"But if they find her then everything could be revealed" said Eric.
"By then it will be too late and she doesn't even know that much" said Michel.
A figure then appeared in the darkness.
"Did you post the assassination posters all over that world?" asked Michel.
"Yes" said the figure.
"Good, Lucas you will now meet your next member in the next world but before you do you must save her and her friends from the gun fire of greedy humans" said Michel.
He began to laugh his hardest as all of his followers smiled for they knew the awakening was near and the key to everything was so easy to get.
