SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 28 out, this is Chapter 29 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review other than just simply putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot and pairing.

Chapter 29: I'm Not Going Back To The Order

"Look," Mike led the group down a flight of stairs. "Near the main Shrine, that towering building."

"You mean 'Inari Dream Town', right?" Rin asked.

"This is where these guys come and go." Mike explained. "Also inside this building is where these foolish alley people gather."

"What do you mean?" Yukio asked.

"Watch these people closely." Mike commented.

"There is no anger, no sadness, no fear, no jealously, no hatred and no suffering." Ami's eyes widened. "They're as innocent as children; all they do is eat insatiably."

"If you eat even one bite of the products of this land, you'll become like these people." Mike warned. "Be careful, this alley is their territory. If you eat it once, you'll ear more and get addicted."

"Rin, you can't eat it anymore!" Shiemi exclaimed in shock when they saw Rin chomping down on a bun.

"It's not only Rin, we all ate it, right?" Miwa realized. "The soba."

"The effects can be removed by some types of demon-repelling herbs." Mike added.

"Demon-repelling?" Yukio echoed. "I don't know anything."

"Could it..." Ami gaped in realization. Shiemi's grass sandwiches!

"It's over for the people addicted to the food of this land." Mike sighed. "They all get onto this bus and go to this building and they never return. New people come here regularly. They all disappear inside this building."

"So you mean the Illuminati brainwashed all these citizens to gather at 'Inari Dream Town' and never leave?" Yukio blinked.

"What's the purpose of that?" Ami pressed.

"i do not know their goal." Mike admitted. "But I can tell you one thing: this land is nothing more than a pretty front. Deep down, it's rotten and infested with maggots."

"Satan Slash!" Rin's energy wave knocked the two guards back, allowing the overgrown Kuro to land on the two men.

Yukio's tranquilizers darts took care of two more, while Suguro slammed his bazooka on the fifth guard.

"Easy victory!" Rin beamed after they took out the guards.

"Anyway, what was that?" Suguro asked. "Satan Slash?"

"Shut up!" Rin snapped. "All this time, Shura has been using names for her techniques. She told me that I should do the same when I use my flames to picture it more easily in my mind! Shura told me!"

"Well, it certainly is easy to remember for you." Suguro shrugged.

"Are you making fun of me?" Rin shot back.

"No," Suguro corrected. "You are so trustworthy."

"A shopping mall?" Yukio frowned when the group entered the building.

"Do the people who got into that bus earlier really live here?" Suguro was puzzled. "For an enemy base, there's not even a soul."

"No, there is." Rin corrected.

"Rin's right." Ami's senses were on high alert. "There's something here. don't lowr your guard."

"Everyone, listen." Yukio voiced. "We're in enemy territory. They will surely appear sooner or later. Preferably, we should not try to get separated. So, let's look for the underground entrance."

"There's someone." Rin pointed out when he and Yukio spotted walking along an aisle. "Hey you!"

SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
