Chapter 1:
Murder Club

The boat rocked back and forth through the mist, Kat leaning against Juu's chest as they both read a copy of 'The Vampire Lestat' by Anne Rice, sitting down with Juu propped up on the side of the boat.

"How much longer?" Juu moved his head to the side to ask Rushio.

"We'll probably be there in an hour," Rushio answered, moving a strand of white hair out of his eyes as Juu ran his own hand through Kat's red hair. Juu was about to say something when a voice rang through the air from a speaker.

"As you all probably noticed, there was more then this boat leaving for the island. Only one team can make it off this boat alive to compete. But how are we going to decide, you ask? A battle royal. Have fun now, Fight." The speaker stopped, and demonic roars rang through the crowd.

The group of three darted deep into the mass of demons, Juu placing the books in his hair*. Juu held his usual staff, Kat her scythe, and Rushio had a handful of snowballs.

While Juu used the old-fashioned way of Vlad Tepes from ancient Romania and impaled three demons at once with his staff to make them suffer, Kat delt quick deaths by decapitating with her scythes. Rushio, on the other hand, didn't kill at all. He knocked demons off the boat with snowballs, watching them fall into the murky blackness that was the Makai's waters, where they would eventually drown.

Within about 10 minutes, all were gone. The three stood there, completely dry, smirking. "Rushio, our other teammates already made it to the island, right? I don't want to have killed them."

Rushio nodded, "Kenosuke and Asaka already made it, yes." He looked to Juu for a moment before the voice rang through the air again, sort of saddened that people that looked like humans could defeat all those demons and not get harmed at all.

"Congratulations to Team Kage for passing the preliminary round. The rest of the tournament will start tommorow, and we should be reaching the island soon,"

"I thought you said an hour..." Juu looked to Rushio, sighing.

"Hey, this isn't the part of Makai I live, how should I know?" Rushio laughed, and Juu smirked, a bloodlust in his eyes.

"I personally can't wait for an actual challenge..." Juu stared into the hanging mist, waiting.

------

* - Juu's hair is his 'hammer space', persay. Hammer space is basically a completely other plane reserved for that particular mage. They can store anything and everything in there, and while summoners can bring something directly from their hammer space, other mages need a channel to get through. Juu's is his hair, and he's been known to take toasters out of his hair to throw at people when he's pissed off.

Now, then, welcome, to Roses of Red and Black.
