"And I take it that the Ancients are hard to come by?" Lizzie said at last, who'd been quiet the whole time."

"It is said that teh ANcients live where teh brimstone is at its strongest and weakest, where teh flames burn their hottest and coldest, and the winds are their fiercest and weakest." Ktonos said quietly. "If it makes any sense."

"Sounds like Krellon," Kremmen murmured to himself.
"Don't be silly!" Bodgers murmured at last. "The place is full of Krells."
"I know," Kremmen reassured. "But it matches the description. Skaro is way out."

Fang, SHen and KTonos all looked at Kremmen.
"Where?" Fang asked.

"Which one? Krellon or Skaro?" Kremmen asked. "I can get you to Krellon no problem, but Skaro means crossing to the very edge of the Aniverse."

"THe Ancients are in the Great Flaming Temple. IT floats on an island made of solidified spirits, in the middle of an ocean of pure blood. SUch a place can not exist in the ANiverse." Ktonos said quietly as he lowered his head. "It exists in the lowest level of Realm of Pain called teh Inferno."
Fang swallowed nervously as he listened and glanced at Raven with a worried look.
"Do you recognize any of what he is saying?" Fang asked meekly.

"No, it sounds unlike anything I've heard of," Raven answered.
"Well, that's both Skaro and Krellon out," Kremmen added. "Neither of them have any oceans."
"I know of it," Purgatori murmured at last. "I have travelled on many spiritual plains, and can open gates to any one I choose. However, I cannot unless everybody here is willing to enter a place where sheer agony lies in misery."

"Agony and Misery are the least of the thigns to be concerned about where the Ancients live." Ktonos said coldly. "If you are lucky, you will only die there."
Fang and Shen look at each other and swallow nervously.

"Look, she's trying to help you out here!" Bodgers snapped at Ktonos. "The least you can do is thank her for helping. You're a hunter, and I didn't brush you off when we attacked General Negatron. Why pass judgement on somebody when you are judged yourself?"
He paused but continued before Ktonos could speak. "Both of you have killed, and Purgatori has tried to save you! So, if you're just going to keep spitting venom at people like some bloated puff-adder, then you can go on your crusade without me!"
Purgatori was touched by Bodgers standing up for her. There were new and strange feelings inside her that Purgatori had never felt before. Warmth, a beating heart, kindness.

In a flash, faster than anyone else could see, including Purgatori, Ktonos grabbed Bodgers and lifted him off the ground. His eyes were blazing with anger at Bodgers words.
"I don't know wha the hell you are saying about judging anyone, because i am not!" HE growled in Bodgers face. "Out of this entire group, SHE is the only one who knows what you are walkin ginto! YOu came here looking for help and I AM giving you that information to help you, NOT passing judgement on ANYONE!!"
He dropped Bodgers and galred at him on the ground.
"THough you arrogance states i should." He growled crossing his arms.
He looked at teh entire group with a glare.
"This entire group of mismatched individuals is wanting to walk into teh Inferno and talk with teh Ancients and only one of them even has a clue as to what tehy are walking into." He stated flatly. "COnsider this as well then. SIth knows the ANcients as well as i do. He will try to stop you."
WIth that, Ktonos turned and grabbed a glass of water while waiting to see what anyone said.

Bodgers simply moved out of harms way into the group.
"I do know of the horrors," Purgatori murmured. "As I have said, I have travelled across the plain where it stands. Not all of us "mismatched individuals" is ignorant of its' foreboding."

KTonos moved over and looked out teh window. WHen he spoke, he didn't turn around.
"Purgatori, Mistress of Death and Evil, you know fully what you are talking about heading into and you are fully aware of what could happen." He said calmly, referring to Purgatori by her title. "You should also know that no normal mortal or vampire can enter that area as well. Only Nagas, beings on par with you and Lady Death, and half breed vampires can enter that area."
WIth that, he turned and looked her directly in the eyes.
"So, what do you suggest this group do?" He asked flatly.
Shen looked at Fang and stepped away from him.
"You're the half breed, not me." SHen said with a weak smile.

"I will open the portal, and you will enter," Purgatori answered calmly. "Fang here is a half-breed, and I think it best that you go together should something go wrong."

Fang's jaw dropped as he lookied at Purgatori. Ktonos turned and nodded to Fang.
"Arm youself well then, half breed." He said coldly.
He turned towards Starfire. As he did, there was a flash of golden light around him and he was covered in golden armor with twin curved blades on his back. He gently hugged Starfire.
"I'll return as soon as i can." He said gently and kissed her forehead.
He looked at Purgatori.
"Open the porthole and keep it open. There should be enough people here to keep the beings from crossing." He said and his eyes narrowed. "Or other events happening as well."
Fang swallowed nervously and looked at Raven with a fearful glance.

Starfire nodded, and glanced at Ktonos with a look that simply said: "Be careful".
Raven moved over to hand Fang something. It was a small crystal made out of Ravens' energy.
"This gem guards a piece of my soul-self," she answered. "It will help to protect you when you most need it."
Purgatori waited patiently for Fang to prepare, while Bodgers simply watched from the sidelines, now broken away from the group."
