Hehehe, I even know the finally ending of all endings to this already!! X_X But I won't say what will happen…heheheh. (Is singing the Miss Susy song) ACK! Rhymes in me heeeaaad! If this continues, I'll have one of the guys sing it!! -.-

BTW, I want Zero and Baku to get inot a major argument about something…but I dunno WHAT! Help?

" Hurry, hurry, HURRY!!" Baku yelled frantically while riding on Entengo towards the Zakorello gate.

" We're coming, we're coming, WE'RE COMING!" Zero yelled while he, Kane, Shute and Captain flew and ran to it as fast as they could before it closed.

They all jumped into it just in time before it closed by the time deadline, like it said in the letter. They all looked around to find themselves on the outskirts of a high tech city.

" Dude…" Shute said while looking up at some of the metallic skyscrapers. " Where are we?"

" In another dimension," Captain replied. " Is this the place where we are supposed to be?" Kane asked.

" It sure as hell better be," Zero replied. " Let's go." Everyone started to walk towards the city except Kane. He just stood there, examining the metropolis.

Zero turned around and looked at him. " Kane?"

" I know where we are…" Kane said. Everyone else stopped and looked at him.

" Where?" Baku asked.

" Dark City…The city of the Undead."
***

It had only been hours since Kikumon kidnapped little Litho. And even though Zero never showed it, he was just as upset about this as Bakunetsumaru. Being who he was, and being raised the way he was, he was never really good at showing a lot of emotion at times.

" The city of the Undead…" Zero repeated as they got closer to it. " You told me about that once, didn't you?" Kane nodded.

" It is where our kind flourished."

" Our kind??"

" Vampires." Zero never really did like being linked to that, but he couldn't really complain, what is done is done and cannot be undone.

They walked through the streets, and saw merchants, travelers, buyers, and barters of any species imaginable. Some of them would always look at them as though they just saw lunch walking by…

" Shute, Captain, Bakunetsumaru and Entengo are mortal," Kane said, " So they're going to get strange looks…a lot of these creatures eat mortals." Shute, Baku and his horse twitched. Kane glanced about for a moment.

" Shute, Captain, you two come with me. We're going to have to find a place to stay. Bakunetsumaru and Zero will go to the tournament grounds and sign up." Everyone nodded.

" Whadda ya mean I CAN'T enter!?" Baku yelled furiously at the goblin behind the registration desk.

" What I said," he said gruffly. " Mortals can't enter. Rules are rules, buddy." Baku groaned.

" Isn't there anyway he can enter?" Zero asked.

" Nope."

" I can't enter…Grrrr!!" Baku crossed his arms while a vain throbbed on his head. " Baku, don't be mad…"

" Why shouldn't I be?! My only son is a prize in some strange tournament, and I can't enter to save him!!" Zero put a hand on his shoulder.

" Baku…" Baku shrugged the hand off and growled at the goblin. He jumped onto the table and grabbed the creature by the neck of his shirt.

" If you don't let me in I'll have to beat you into a bloody pulp!!!" Baku threatened while shaking the goblin.

" Gya-ahhh-ahhh! FINE!" Baku let go, making the goblin fall out of his chair. He got back up and grumbled, " If you pass a test…then you can enter…" Baku smiled.

" Good!" Zero didn't have a good feeling about all of this at all.
