The tube giving air gave a bit more than that as it seemed to have an arousing agent as well, the horses could smell it as they didn't seem afraid of the fire as the lead stallion snorted; a small burst of fire came forth from its nose as it trotted around them, the others following suit as the snakes didn't seem to mind the stallions as they worked together while the larger snakes had yet to be freed. "Fire stallions are a rare breed..have fun." The snakes welcomed the heat as they moved closer faster, ignoring the dark clothed creature that had suddenly appeared within the room.<br/><br/><br/><br/>The shadow chuckled again harshly. "This place is not mine nor is it owned now, and Lance is safe...for now. And you can't hurt me, Arkain..your test is soon to begin, best to make ready." He saw the desired action of Arkain and maybe one day he would have a chance, as the cloak and mask would remain while he vanished; it would only take a moment so he waited a while longer. "Your test is to see how you will face the possibility of never getting out of here, how well you can help the others stuck here..your ring will allow you to Reform with others, but who is a mystery. I will tell you this...there are a few colors active, play with it to find out more.." He knew that would annoy him slightly and would trigger an action, he would be gone before the pipe hit him.<br/><br/><br/><br/>The water kept rising within the room, the doors closing slowly as time time was running out; there seemed to be more water in the longer path but there were eels and fish as well but the eels didn't seem to care about the fish for some reason.<br/><br/><br/><br/>The tape played as the voice came on quickly. <Took you long enough, was wondering when you would get the clues..but for this next series of test, you will need all that you have; doors will need to be opened and buttons pushed, but in what order is yet to be discovered..good luck.> The tape then ended.<br/><br/><br/><br/>The TV came to life as the tape was played. "Hello, Agamme. Its hard to do a test that you might fail, its harder yet to watch your closest friends vanish before your eyes; bit of good news is that Ditan is alive..but He has a test of his own to deal with and help with. YOU have to sit here and watch them both while they do their tests and help those that they are now with, the chair is for you to sit in..if you leave it...well, its not hard to guess what happens then. Sit."<br/><br/><br/>Zen and Aku watched Ditan as he blew a concentrated stream of fire at the door while charging at it, it melted enough as he rammed it as it was dented enough for Zen to pry it open enough from a corner to get at the lock on the other side while Aku moved closer to Ditan; trying to make sure that he was OK. "You OK Ditan? I am not sure what you were trying to do but it has allowed us to open it.." He placed his hands over Ditan's as a cooling sensation was passed to his head as the pain would have been reduced slowly, as any injury would be gone as a soft blue light washed over Ditan and Aku for a moment before it was gone. "Mmmmm....how is that, better..?" He shivered slightly as his hands slipped from on top of Ditan's and moved to his own.
