Gero couldn't believe it. Gero did the same thing to him and Ichiro. He carried Gero and Ichigo to hell. Ichigo's date was hugging Gero as they fell down. Small tears cascaded down her cheeks as she looked frightened. Her frail arms wrapped easily around Gero. It was like they were made to hold him. He never thought a girl from Hell would be so afraid to hold him.

Gero and Ichigo landed safely on their feet and stood up. Daisuke who they thought was long gone brought them here. He seemed very odd since Daisuke was the one who could sway people with his intelligence and his good looks. Ichigo believed he was crazy and Gero believed he was possessed.

" Leaving so soon?" Daisuke asked turning his neck in a counter-clockwork formation. Daisuke pulled on his mop-like hair showing a black diamond embedded in his head. " The parties just beginning."

The diamond changed from black to purple. All Daisuke did was talk and the diamond changed from black to purple and purple to black again and again. " I hear you boys don't like to go to class. Do you know what I call boys who don't go to classes?" Daisuke's right arm created a red signal with two horns and a tiny black mouth. Ichigo and Gero mistook it for a goblin at first, but then Daisuke's hands created a red sword blade out of his hand. The sword took them by surprise…it burned. " Burned. Let's rip off those clothes."

" What?" Gero stuttered as Daisuke cackled.

Daisuke threw his sword into the ground where it shattered into pink sand. Pixie dust? It didn't seem like any kind of pixie dust Gero ever read about. Gero expected fairies to fly out or mud men to appear, but something was burning inside Gero's pants instead. His butt was on fire and it was getting hotter…very hot…extremely hot...

" MY BUTT IS FLAMING!" Gero jumped in the air holding his butt. No flames were burning out of his pants. His pants just disappeared into tiny flecks of burned fabric. The only thing that didn't burn away was his underwear.

" Hahaha!" Ichigo laughed. " That's right. Everyone knows bad things happen to those who deserve it…something smells like burning." Ichigo looked at his pants. A tiny read blood stain appeared where his prostate should be. Ichigo felt this pain and screamed. " Yeow!"

The hellion, girl from hell, was giggling. Gero was trying to hide his underwear. He was guarding the front. In the back of the underwear there was the kid show Kitty Mayflower and Potato Man Pwwww. Ichigo was yelling Bloody Marry over and over again as he uncontrollably ran around in circles.

" Gotcha," Daisuke laughed pointing his fingers at Gero's underwear and Ichigo's blood stain. A beam of blue light touched Gero and Ichigo. They didn't feel anything. It was like a quick change of clothes. Gero's pants returned and Ichigo's blood stain was gone. " Daisuke always wondered how easy it would be to make you two look ridiculous. If I must say you two looked like a couple of clowns."

" Hey!" Ichigo yelled. " Don't call me a clown. I happen to be a doctor to the ladies."

" Who are you?" Gero asked. " You're not Daisuke. Daisuke could never fly, or shoot laser beams, make sand appear , I don't even think he can laugh. So who are you?"

" It's not who I am it's what I am. I'm neither a demon or an angel. Some look at me as a chance to move into heaven, but really I have no part in helping anyone get into any of them. I believe people have the right to have a non-religion and I support them for it—just hope they don't mind going to hell. It's warm eleven months of the year and scorching for the rest. My name is Lucifer. Before I became Lucifer I was a boy who lived years before your grandparents were even born, but I don't remember what year I was born or when I became despair and hope. I just remember I didn't ask for this life… I was made for it."

" Are you going to fight us?" Gero asked raising his arms in the air.

" Of course. Do you think I would just take you here to talk? Talking and people who spend all their life being good are things I find empty. I wanted to see which one of you has the power."

" The Power?" Ichigo blinked. He was thinking of the song where the author says "I've got" you know what. " Listen, buddy, if you want a boom box really quick just use your skills to get the right lottery number and buy one with your lottery money."

" I can do this instead."

Lucifer raised Daisuke's arm as an incantation appeared in the form of a fox with three horns glowing green. After he used his spell something hit Ichigo's noggin. Ichigo saw the number 200 after it touched him. Something hit him again. He was seeing the number 1000. Again and again something hit his head. Each time the same number and a new number appeared in his eyes. There was 200 then 400 followed by 600 and 800 and finally 1000. It was like he was playing Jeopardy. His points raised from 7600 to 8600 as one 400 and three 200 balls fell on his head.

" He's not the one with the power," Lucifer as Daisuke said in disappointment. " He could stop this already. It's only simple transportation magic." Lucifer shook Daisuke's head and made a small thinking noise. His pondering face resembled Ian's boss Mr. Fisher. Gero knew Mr. Fisher way before Ian even worked for him. He used to work as a construction worker, lazing around and sitting around doing nothing, and claiming he knew how to solve all world disputes. "If countries don't get along who cares?" He used to say. " Just make sure they stay on their side and don't launch nuclear missiles."

" It's you, isn't it…" Lucifer raised his finger and pointed. Gero was in front of him. Something told Gero he wasn't pointing at him. He turned around and saw the slimy green hellion behind him. " You're the one with the power. How else could you get out of hell?"

Lucifer banged Daisuke's hands against Daisuke's chest and made loud ape noises. Gero thought he was being nuts, but Lucifer was being nut and showing his rage. After banging his hands against his chest the diamond in Daisuke's head changed blue. The blue that was the color of the diamond also changed the color of Lucifer's eyes. Gero understood it now…the way Lucifer was different than any demon or angel…why he took control of Daisuke but still made fun of them…he had a twisted personality.

" Well I'm sending you back there."
