Chapter 7 Strange Place

• "Hey! Kuroe and Tadaki? What's the matter?" She shouted out loud and all of a sudden Karthus started looking everywhere on the ground and was looking for the hole that the monster that Kathy fought.
• "Kathy! Where's the hole?" He asked as he stared at Kathy who was approaching Kuroe and Tadaki in the distance. She turned to her right and glanced at him and raised her right hand and pointed her index finger behind him to his right.
• "Thanks!" He said out loud as he talked to his eleven men to head to the Kingdom of Wisdom and Words. They all nodded quietly as the eleven of them approached the Samurai.
• "The Kingdom of Wisdom and Words is free to go in, right? We'd like to call it home... We have nothing else to go," one of the eleven said as they reached the three. They stand and stare at the floor.
• "Yes, don't make any stupid moves inside the village or be suspicious, or else it could be the end of your lives. We Samurai will hunt you all down if you all betrayed us! Now head to the east. Our Kingdom is somewhere between the Northeast and East, don't get cocky in the way," she answered as she stared at the eleven and made an overwhelming killer intent aura.
• They all got frightened and they all nodded and began to walk past them. They all ignored eye contact and headed out of the open village without a sense of danger. Tadaki and Kathy walk in the far distance behind them and see Karthus looking down at the tunnel.
• He saw that it was far off. The tunnel that was made by destroying the underneath towards the surface was at least five hundred feet down. It has five layers, meaning there is more land below. The open village that they're in was the sixth. He crouched while looking down and was trying to see if he could see something down there.
• Kathy suddenly appeared behind him and she also looked down. Her intent was kind and her peaceful intent made Karthus glance at her, seeing a flower. He blushed for a second, then he quickly looked down.
• "It's far down, that monster dragged me all the way, I suspect it was a trap and not you," she said in a calm voice as she slid into the hole. Kuroe and Tadaki followed her from behind. Karthus was surprised as he quickly followed them. He also slides in.
• He was getting faster and faster and couldn't stop sliding. Suddenly, he sees a massive hole and a whole land in the end. He shouted as he realized if he fell into the hole he's dead. He falls and Tadaki grabs his hand.
• Karthus looked up and saw the Samurai and Kuroe in a line on top of him. He sees that Kathy had her sword stabbed into the wall and was holding it so they wouldn't fall. It was two hundred feet down to the ground and they were seeing a whole village. There were lanterns everywhere but everything was also destroyed except for the lights that remained. Only a couple of houses were left standing.
• "Tsk! I've never been from the third to the fifth layer. We should proceed even more!" Karthus shouts.
• "Yeah, but hold on. Give Kuroe some time! She didn't expect this, we could've walked down the stairs here, but I guess this is a much faster route," Tadaki also shouts. Karthus was right next to him, to his right, holding his right hand tightly.
• "I can't believe we took the fastest route but didn't come up with a plan, big brain Kathy!" She said out loud as she cast a spell in her left hand and her right eye glowed white brightly towards the ground. She was in the middle of the two Samurai. Tadaki has his left hand holding onto her feet.
• "Well, we can jump," she said as she realized that their voice was echoing. That made her study the surroundings and seemed something to bother her and it was strange for her.
• Suddenly, they all scattered and fell. Kuroe folded both of her hands together and suddenly they landed on a magic barrier underneath their feet that they could stand on. It was a colored white and her right eye was glowing brightly white. She was focused on her barrier, slowly making the stairs down for them and her.
• "She's amazing! I didn't know she could do such things like that!" Karthus thought as she looked around the whole land underneath. It was somewhat dark and somewhat bright. There was a post and a lantern that was lighting the whole place. All of them were mesmerized except for Karthus.
• Kuroe wasn't looking around, she was focusing on controlling her magic on the other three people making the stairs down. It was still far down and they were three hundred feet in the air. The Samurai were looking around the Darkness at the ceiling, and the ground was light. Houses could be destroyed and blood could be smelled.
• "Hmm? There is nobody here... But only blood. I wonder what kind of information the King got from that woman. She's the only one who knows and the special one amongst the seven Warriors. If the Dark Realm is here, then it's an all-out brawl," Tadaki thought as he looked around. Karthus hadn't sensed any danger, but his demon inside was feeling something strange. Like Kuroe, her other side was sensing something in the Shadows.
• "Hey! Kuroe! Get faster! This is now a strange place and a dangerous place, we don't know what's in it," Kathy shouts as she glances at the ceiling feeling something strange and realizing something bad is happening.
• "What the hell is this feeling? I get paralyzed as I move with one step, I'm used to this kind of height, and both of us can't jump down. I and Tadaki are the only superiors here and the fastest. The enemies are most likely to attack the sorcerers or the wizards, so there's no hindrance. What the hell is happening?!" Kathy shouted as she jumped down and landed on the rooftop of a three-story house.
• Before she jumped, she shouted at Tadaki to stay with them. She then looked around her and down below and saw no bodies at all. Her eyes widened as she realized what was happening. The whole hidden village people or villagers were capable of holding true and unworldly power. But none of them mastered it and it seems someone in the other clan was more powerful than them and destroyed them.
• "Tsk! I need to quickly send a message to the King, war is coming! Their bodies are capable of holding such things and if their bodies got kept in the wrong hands it would be great trouble! This is far more dangerous than I could've imagined. My mission now is to find those bodies. If they manage to find the secrets of their bodies, we are doomed for the worst," she thought as she headed in front to the big house in the far distance that is strangely built.
• "Stay low, Karthus!"
• "I'm following her. I can defend on my own!" Karthus said as he jumped down and landed on the rooftop, the same as Kathy landed on. He followed Kathy but he was slow. Kuroe stopped folding her hands together and pointed them upfront.
• "I guess we gotta stay high, we need to check the surroundings, the ceiling is none of the options, this place is unimaginable, I can't believe this hidden village is hiding this kind of thing and this has five layers down," she said as she began to walk and step on the barrier that she made underneath her feet. She made a path and it was colored and there were words on her spell that was surrounding it. There was a circled barrier lineup in front. Tadaki also has his and he was a little down to her left.
• " Do you remember what the King said?" He asked as Kuroe glanced at him. Tadaki was glaring at the ceiling and had both of his hands next to his hips.
• "Yeah, the Dark Realm? It's possible that they're here and to use those kinds of bodies, if I imagine they'd use spaceships made by those Extraterrestrials, but here they could use dimensions for traveling and for a safe place, they could easily change the coordinates if they wanted," she answered in a low voice as she also glared at the ceiling.
• Kathy reached the big house and realized that it was a church and she was in front of it. She suddenly pulled out her sword with her right hand. The church was standing strangely. It was the only thing standing in the first layer underneath. She was a distance away from the church when she heard the wind from behind that made her turn around.
• She looked at the far distance and sees Karthus heading towards her, jumping on the rooftops and casting magic in her right hand for support in her legs and for jumping high. There was magic energy surrounding his leg.
• She turns around the church and sees the door in the distance open. She begins to walk as she sees an old man in the far distance next to the shrine and a replica of Jesus nailed to the cross. The unknown old man, wearing a black cape and wearing a dark coat and wearing a wizard hat and a wand in his right hand, was praying.
• She walks in quietly as she sees that there are chairs spread out and still intact and the surroundings are clean. She looked at the ceiling and saw that there was light everywhere. There's no Dark Place inside the church.
• "What the hell is this old man doing here? Is this some kind of trap? If it is, then this will be the end of me. Sheesh, I wonder who he is," she thought as she stood menacingly and stopped walking. She was in the middle of the church while the old man finished praying and slowly turned around. He walks down the stairs of the shrine and stretches his back.
• "How kind of you, I'm a visitor from the Kingdom of--" he said as he suddenly got interrupted when, all of a sudden, someone opened the door to his far right and made him turn. The door was suddenly wide open.
• Karthus appeared behind her without her noticing it. That made her turn around and she saw him standing to her right. She glances at the door that the old man's looking at.
• "Who is he?" He asked as the old man continued to glance away from the two. On the sides of the church, there were pillars and inside there were also pillars next to the chairs supporting the church.
• "Stand behind me, don't glare at him, someone has arrived," she whispered, as that made him study his surroundings. He looked at the pillar where the old man was looking and could, with both of his eyes, he could clearly see a shadowy particle moving wildly around the unknown.
• "You must be Kathy, one of the Seven Warriors in the Kingdom of Wisdom and Words. It's an honor to meet you. As you see, I'm praying to my god, not an actual god, but a man... A man of his word. He should live longer than a few months. I heard he would die soon, so I prayed so that he would rest in peace on the day he dies. I consider him as the second to the best," he said as he bowed with great respect.
• "Reconsider? Who the hell are you anyway, you clown?! You can get the hell out of here if you're just a visitor, but I don't think that's the case, since you have got a Dark side, and same as the Dark that came here, in my line of information, every Dark side has a monster and unworldly power, and I wanna see if that's true! Now! Show me it!" She said furiously as she stepped on her left foot and broke the ground she was stepping on and flew towards the old woman with great speed. Karthus was left behind bracing and putting both of his arms upfront and had both of his eyes widened.
• She reaches the old man who has his staff pointed at her and suddenly someone flies to her right and she notices it. She sees a dark particle effect and it appears in front of her without giving any vibes. She sees dark particles and dark energy traveling all around its body wildly. She swung down her blade and her eyes widened as she saw that he also had a sword in his right hand. He swung his blade upward and their blades collided. Kathy got sent back and her eyes widened as she felt the heavy sword and arm of the unknown.
• She flew back and slammed to the ground and two houses outside of the church. The chairs were destroyed and flew away. Karthus got sent to the right side of the church and lost consciousness. She was covered with chairs as the unknown Dark approached her by slowly walking out of the church.
• She slammed into the destroyed two-story houses. She puts out blood and in the distance, she slowly stands and uses her sword to stand by stabbing it to the ground. She spit out blood as there was blood dripping on the left side of her forehead and right arm where she was holding her sword. She slowly opened her eyes and saw the two had walked out of the church. She smiled brightly as her mask dropped to the ground and showed bright blue-pink eyes and long pink-black-colored hair.
• "The hell is up with this guy? I got sent a hundred to twenty feet away from the inside of the church by a single swing of a sword. Tch! Karthus got sent also, Kuroe and Tadaki must've heard it but I doubt they'll come," she thought as she raised her sword and moved to a defensive stance. She ran towards them with great speed as suddenly she put her left hand nearly touching the ground as she ran. She was stepping on dirt and slowly her energy started flowing down to the dirt and grass started growing rapidly with flowers.
• "Hidden Samurai Technique! Bloom of the Flowers! Descending Dead Rose!" She said as all of a sudden, giant flower roses destroyed the ground from underneath and came rising to the surface and were in front of her. It grew fast and was going towards them with great speed and it felt heavy.
• "She's no magician nor sorcerer... Then she used a hidden forbidden technique called the rapid growth of flowers that can be used to harm others because of how heavy it is," the old man said to the unknowns dark to his side as they both glared at her from a distance.
• Suddenly, the flower rose opened and the flower swung itself into the unknown dark as it reached it. It hit the right side of his face while the old man was sent back to the shrine and slammed to the wall and Jesus' cross fell to the ground. The Dark didn't flinch as he slowly raised his sword with his right hand over the flower.
• "He didn't even flinch?! What the hell is this?!" She said as all of a sudden the monster that was in front of her destroyed the flower that she made and his blade was right next to the left side of her neck. Her eyes widened as she had her sword on her right.
• Suddenly, someone flew from the ceiling to the ground. Tadaki swings his sword down and he manages to withstand the swing of the unknown Dark Blade. Kuroe Aka Kodai grabs her and Tadaki grunts and jumps up and out of there. Kuroe quickly runs towards the destroyed houses that she slammed into. Tadaki looked down while seeing the unknown swing his blade to the ground.
• It struck the ground like thunder and lightning and it made the ground shocked and sent shockwaves that made Tadaki fly up even more. He put both of his arms upfronts.
• Kuroe and Kathy hide behind a pillar of one of the houses that was left standing. Suddenly, a fierce wind blows on them and half of the pillar falls towards them. Kathy notices it and she swings up her sword and cuts it into countless pieces.
• Tadaki was still hovering in the air. The shockwave slowly stops and the fierce wind stops. He falls as he is ready for a technique when, all of a sudden, to his right, the church rooftop breaks apart and the old man comes out furiously.
• "These two are enemies, hmm? Then they're the one that woman is talking about, she's really one of the warriors and an interesting fella," he thought as he touched the ground and stood menacingly.
• "You have the nerve to stand against us, Tadaki! I thought you were just her pet and the one that stands behind her! Meaningly she's been protecting you! Now, you're protecting yourself, isn't that heart-touching?" The old man said as he giggled and all of a sudden Tadaki appeared behind him with a furious killer intent aura. He swings his sword sideways to the left side of his neck.
• Suddenly, his sword collided with an unknown person and he's eyes widened as all of a sudden the Dark that was in front of the church was in front of him smiling menacingly. He tried to push his blade but he couldn't. The ground they were stepping on had some giant cracks and it broke apart, which made them three jump out of the church. The three of them touch on the ground.
• "I can't even scratch that monster?! I give my powerful swing yet this guy can't-- who the hell is these two?!" He thought furiously as his eyes widened and his sword was next to his chest. Suddenly, there was blood dripping from the side of his mouth behind the mask.
• He looked down and felt his own blood dripping on the side of his mouth, yet he didn't feel he had been hit or anything. He then got to his senses and suddenly realized the great danger of the dark.
• "Huh? Blood? I forgot to tell you, Samurai's! The shock wave can send something off to your brain and organs if you are not careful. You are lucky you manage to get some distance and your friends manage to hide in, I'm from the Dark Realm, and here on my side is my favorite amongst them, and I guess this answers the questions of Kathy," the old man said menacingly as he introduced the monster on his right side that roars wildly and the Dark Energy and Particle flows around the monster wildly and crazy. His sword was nothing but Dark Colors.
• "If this monster is crazy fast and as crazy strong as he is now, then it's gonna be impossible to dodge this monster... I can only think of one thing: this monster can be defeated if our two powerful warriors are here to beat them both, for now, I must targe-" he thought as he suddenly got interrupted when the monster that Dark appeared in front of him and kicked him in the stomach and got sent away and loses consciousness and slamming to five houses. Five three-story houses and his still holding his sword.
• "Tadaki!"
