Stop doubting yourself!! You said you almost had him...But what about our promise that we would do everything together as a team!!? Stop taking on the burden yourself,and let me in!!! You're not a loser!!\"\n\nAlan continued to shout.Kyle and Class continued to look at Kay who now had a pitiful look on his face.But it wasn't of sadness,it was more of understanding.Alan then began to sob.\n\n\"You're a strong and nice person...You're my guardian angel...You're our friend.So,if fighting dad means that I'll have to lose you too,then I won't do it.\"\n\nAlan says as he continues to cry.Kay looks at him with concern.\n\n\"Alan...I'm sorry.\"\n\nKay apologizes.Class grins a little at Kay.\n\n\"Well...What do you say you 2 get some rest? You look exhausted.\"\n\nClass says.Kay looks at her and nodds.\n\n\"Yeah.We are pretty tired.\"\n\nKay responds.Alan wipes his face,and nodds.\n\n\"Mmhm.\"\n\nHe says.Kyle,feeling guilty,flicks his glasses and looks at the both of them.\n\n\"Alan.I'm sorry.I knew that Lucifer was going to be here,but I did nothing to stop it.Please forgive me.\"\n\nKyle says,frowning.Class comes over to comfort him.\n\n\"It's okay,love.What matters is that they're safe and sound,right?\"\n\nClass says.Kyle was still frowning,but nodds a little.\n\n\"Yeah.I guess.\"\n\nHe says.\n\n\"We should be hitting the sac too.It's been a long night.\"\n\nShe says.She walks away,and turns around to wave goodbye.Kay waves back,and continues to sit down.Alan still kept a frown on.Kyle looks back at he 2.\n\n\"Are you guys gonna be okay?\"\n\nHe asks.Kay gets up,and nodds.\n\n\"Yeah.We just need some rest,that's all.Right Alan?\"\n\nKay says.Alan looks back at Kay with a slight grin.He nodds as well.\n\n\"Yeah.\"\n\nHe responds.Kyle grins at them both.\n\n\"Alright.Again,I'm sorry about this whole mess.\"\n\nKyle says.Kay grins at him,and approaches him.\n\n\"Don't worry about it...Look I'll see you tomorrow,okay?\"\n\nKay says.Kyle smiles back and they tapped fists.Kyle started to leave,leaving Kay and Alan to walk home themselves.They continued on,and got to Kay's house.It was deserted like always,but they didn't care.They headed straight upstairs.Kay collapses on his bed and Alan sits next to him.\n\n\"I'm sorry I lied to you Alan.I just didn't want to put the burden on you to fight your own father.\"\n\nHe says as he lays down.Alan looks at him,and frowns.\n\n\"Kay.Anyone can see how evil he is.Actually,while I was living with him in Hell,killing him,crossed my mind a little.\"\n\nHe says in a sad expression.Kay lifts his head up and looks at Alan,concerned.\n\n\"Alan.\"\n\nHe says,quietly.\n\n\"He treats everyone and everything like his puppet.He's heartless.So I'm gonna stay by your side and stop him.Okay?\"\n\nAlan grins.Kay nodds,and grins back.\n\n\"So...What do you think we should tell Old man?\"\n\nKay asks.It was quiet for a second.Then they bothe sighed,knowing what was to come.\n\n\"You did what!!?\"\n\nDoctrene shouts at Kay and Alan as they were sitting,and frowning.\n\n\"I...Faced Lucifer alone last night.\"\n\nKay confesses.Doctrene closes his eyes,and calms a little.\n\n\"Why would you do such a reckless thing?\"\n\nHe asks.Kay looks up at him.\n\n\"Because...I thought I was ready,but my emotions still weren't in control yet.I'm sorry I was careless.\"\n\nKay apologizes.Doctrene opens his eyes,and looks at the 2.\n\n\"You two are very troublesome,you know that? Well no matter.There have no been portal sightings lately,so that's a plus on our side.\"\n\nDoctrene says.Kay was confused.\n\n\"Wait,really? But how?\"\n\nHe asks.\n\n\"Lucifer was occupied with you at the moment,remember?\"\n\nDoctrene says.\n\n\"So dad controls where demons will appear?\"\n\nAlan asks.Doctrene nodds.\n\n\"Yes.It's no mere coincidence that the number of demons have shortened while Lucifer was out.In conclusion,he can make demons appear when,and where ever he wants them to.\"\n\nDoctrene explains.Kay clenches his fists.\n\n\"Damn it.This whole thing is so frustrating.\"\n\nHe says.\n\n\"What is?\"\n\nAlan asks.\n\n\"We haven't been doing much to stop him.We've been defending for a while,and I feel that we can't really do anything until we bring the fight to him.\"\n\nKay says.Doctrene thinks for a while.\n\n\"Yeah.I agree with you.Just fighting him off here won't be enough.\"\n\nAlan says.Doctrene was still thinking,then he opens his eyes.\n\n\"Hmmm.Indeed.We must come up with a different tactic.\"\n\nDoctrene says.Kay then has a thought,and stands up.\n\n\"Hey.We might be able to jump through a portal right?\"\n\nHe says.Alan looks at him.\n\n\"How can we do that though? Won't the aura coming out of the portal hurt us?\"\n\nAlan asks.Kay scratches his head.\n\n\"Yeah,you have a point.\"\n\nHe says.Doctrene continues to think.\n\n\"Old man? Can you think of anything?\"\n\nKay asks.Doctrene opens his eyes again.\n\n\"I can assist with the aura problem.\"\n\nHe says.Kay and Alan both look at him in confusion.\n\n\"Really?\"\n\nAlan says.Doctrene nodds.\n\n\"My sword: Kalazaruse.It's aura is pure.So I can cancel out any demonic aura that will hurt us.\"\n\nHe explains.Kay and Alan smiles.\n\n\"Really!? Alright!\"\n\nKay says in an excited tone.\n\n\"But we still have no idea on how to handle our assault when we land there.We have no means of attack.If we are going in,we need a plan to execute so that we can cripple his kingdom once and for all.\"\n\nDoctrene proclaims.The 3 sat,thinking on their plan.Alan started to think about the towers around Hell he saw a while ago.\n\n\"I've got it.I knew those towers seemed familiar.\"\n\nAlan says.Kay and Doctrene looks at him.\n\n\"Hm? What,what is it?\"\n\nKay asks.\n\n\"The towers...The Torch Towers around Hell.That's it's weakness.\"\n\nAlan says.\n\n\"Torch Towers?\"\n\nDoctrene asks.Alan nodds.\n\n\"It's a pretty faint memory,but I remember my dad telling me how important those towers were.He said that they act as an energy supply to Hell,and keeps it's power in balance.\"\n\nAlan says.\n\n\"So.if we take out the towers,it might drain the place of it's energy?\"\n\nKay says.\n\n\"That's how it seems.\"\n\nDoctrene says.Kay nodds and smiles at Alan.\n\n\"Alright Alan.Your memory isn't bad at all.\"\n\nKay says.\n\n\"Why would it?\"\n\nAlan responds.Doctrene looks at the 2.\n\n\"Now that we have a plan,we must execute it tonight to cause less commotion.Get prepared.Timing is of the essence.\"\n\nDoctrene proclaims.Kay and Alan nodds.\n\n\"Hey Alan.Let's go tell the others.We'll need all the help we can get.\"\n\nKay says.Alan nodds.\n\n\"Right.\"\n\nAlan says.They head off to inform their friends of the assault.\n\n  \n  \n\n"}
