Disclaimer: Oh I wish I could have Duo and Heero to my
self...but I can't. *hears Duo muttering in the back
ground about 'good thing too'*

On their way to the Elven Domain, Quatre is on his
unicorn, Sandrock. Wufei decide to ride on his
stallion, Shenlong and have Nataku survey the area
from the sky. Treize didn't bother to ride a horse,
so he's on his griffin. Duo is riding his Shinigami.
Crystal is riding her Moondance, an alicorn. They
have two pack horses to carry their provisions.

Crystal keeps glancing behind them.

"What's wrong?" Quatre asks.

"Just checking to see if someone's following us,
that's all." Crystal replies.

Duo arches an eyebrow at their guest.

"I'll tell you later Duo. If there's time." Crystal
replies curtly.

[Heero]

Heero made sure that his family thought he is going to
be out training in survival before he went to get his
white stallion, Avenging Angel. Packing lightly and
quickly, he is able to catch up to time and keep his
distance away from them.

He watches the group closely to see what they are.
His earlier conversation with Crystal left him with
more questions than before. He wants to know who they
are, what they are, what they want, why they summoned
Crystal, and many other questions.

[back with the group]

Wufei glances behind them. His eyes narrows
dangerously.

"What troubles you?" Treize asks.

"A follower." came the reply.

"Shall we confront them?" Quatre asks Duo.

Duo looks to Crystal in a questioning glance.

"It would seem that you have the opportunity to meet
now instead of later. Will you take up that
opportunity?" Crystal asks cryptically.

Duo looks towards the others, reaching a decision.

"I believe that it would be in our personal interest
to meet this follower. Whether it be to deter them or
protect them is still an issue for the future." Duo
says, halting his Shinigami.

"And we will abide by your decision." Treize replies,
glancing at Wufei to judge his reaction, halting his
Epyon also.

Wufei fumes at the audicity of Duo ordering them
around like that. True, it was Duo who had warned
them about the approaching evil. It was also Duo who
decided what to do about the evil. Therefore, it is
Duo who is in charge.

"Treize-san speaks for us all." Wufei replies
grudgingly halting Shenlong.

Duo smiles as Quatre follows the others' lead. They
turn to await the arrival of their tail.

[Heero]

'Why have they stopped? Did they notice me?' Heero
asks himself, unsure.

<Do not fear them. They wish to speak with you.>
Crystal's voice came through the midst of his
thoughts.

<You again.> Heero replies, alarmed.

<There is no need to be so defensive. We want to
speak with you and introduce ourselves to you. Come,
time is a wasting!> Crystal calls cheerfully.

With a frown, Heero urged Avenging Angel to meet up
with the group.

[the group]

"Good day traveller. Where are thee headed?" Treize
asks.

"Nowhere." came the short reply.

"We are quite rude. We have forgotten to introduce
ourselves." Duo says, grinning. "I am Duo Maxwell.
This is my bond-companion Shinigami."

Duo pats Shinigami affectionately. He gestures the
others to introduce himself.

"I am Treize Khushrenada. This is my bond-companion
Epyon." Treize says, stroking through Epyon's
feathers.

"I am Quatre Winner. This is my bond-companion
Sandrock." Quatre says, as Sandrock bows his head
slightly in acknowledgment.

"I am Wufei Chang. This is my steed Shenlong. My
bond-companion is Nataku, who is currently up in the
air." Wufei says, without a care.

"I am Crystal. This is one of my bond-companions.
Her name is Moondance." Crystal replies with a nod.

"My name is Heero of the Yuy Household. This is my
steed Avenging Angel. You have not inform me of your
station." Heero replies, getting to the point.

Duo smiles warmly at Heero, creating butterfly
sensations within Heero.

"Ah, and I'm sure you wish to know what we are as
well. Am I correct to assume that?" Duo asks, eyes
glinting slightly.

Oblivious Heero replies, "Hai, you are correct."

The others look toward Duo and Crystal for guidance.

"I trust you Heero-sama. I am the one known as
Goddess Made Mortal by many. Within me holds the
bloods of many youkai and ningens. I have existed
since the first creation." Crystal replies.

"I trust Crystal-sama's decision. I am a Tenshi, sent
by the gods and goddesses in hopes of peace for the
three realms." Quatre says, smiling. "My station on
the Ningenkai is simple. I am merely a lord in a
*distant* land."

"My race is known as Rei, otherwise known as Spirit.
I represent the Reikai. My station in the Ningenkai
is of a general from Quatre's *distant* land." Treize
states, smirking.

Wufei growls his displeasure to reveal himself, "My
race is the youkai. I represent the Makai, hoping the
deter the evil from that very world. I don't see why
Duo wanted me to join. After all, it is the Makai
that wanted to dominate the Ningenkai and all it's
weak ningens. My status here is a warrior. And a
damn good one at that!"

Crystal smiles and tries to explain to Heero, "Wufei
represents the part of the Makai that holds justice
and honor in the forefront."

Heero nods in understanding, sort of. He looks
towards Duo, anticipating his explanation.

"I am a cross between youkai, rei, and ningen. I sort
of represent everyone as a whole. I used to be
mortal, but the gods and goddesses have deemed it that
I become immortal." Duo says, grinning. "My status is
of a guardian for forbidden sanctuaries, just like the
one you saw us in before."

Heero is startled to believe that Duo had known about
that.

"We must get going. All of us. Elven Domain is a
long ways away. We need to make the trip quickly and
gain their trust." Crystal informs them. "We need to
unify the Ningenkai and all who live here."

To Be Continued...

You can tell this will be a LONG series. *sigh* If
only summer vacation came NOW. A bit more explanation
about each of them. Hehehehe, definite Yuu Yuu
Hakusho references ne? Maybe it should be a
crossover, but there isn't enough Yuu Yuu Hakusho
stuff to categorize as a crossover... *ponders for a
moment* Then what is this thing?
