Near the center of the Dark Mage Village, stands a cathedral that almost no one goes to. The only individuals that have ever been known to enter the cathedral are cloaked beings that never reveal themselves. One can be seen, heading towards the cathedral with an unconscious panda man in his arms. Very suspicious. Inside the cathedral, from the front doors to the alter on the other end of the building, stand many statues that resemble the cloaked beings. At the alter, stands one of the beings with a very different cloak. He stands with a red cloak with a multitude of designs covering it. The front doors suddenly open and the one, carrying the panda man enters the building. The doors slowly close as the being walks towards the red cloaked being at the alter. "You have found him? Where are your men?" The red cloaked one asks as the one carrying the panda stops in front of the alter. "They were lost to a cat being that was with this one. Plus, I'm not sure if he is the one, but he surely fits the description." He replies. "Very well. Take him to the holding chamber." The red one states as he triggers a switch under the top portion of the podium, near the alter. One of the statues, nearest to the alter then slide back, revealing a hidden stairway. The cloaked being then nods his head and trails down the stairway. The statue finally slides back into position, leaving only the red cloaked individual at the podium.

Reply Curiosity Killed the Cat...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere along the thick and detailed concrete wall surrounding the Cathedral wandered a small girl. She wandered back and forth quietly, stepping onto and over each column as she came to them. As she followed the wall, she glanced over, noticing one of the cloaked people carrying an unconscious Panda Boy. He was heading toward the Cathedral.
She stopped where she was, holding her arms behind her and watched him curiously. Her cat ears flickered and her tail swayed slightly as she tilted her head. She continued to observe unnoticed as -Mr. Cloak- carry the Panda inside with the doors closing behind him. Now she was interested.
Quickly, she hopped down from the wall and scurried over to the Cathedral. She leapt up to the second story and swiftly skipped along the extravagant stone features that made up the decorative outer wall. She reached a window and peered inside covertly and continued monitoring as The Cloaked Carrier walked past the similar looking statues and up to -Mr. I’m the Big Red Leader, Look at me!-.
Her ears twitched and she listened very carefully as she saw the whole thing. Even as the secret staircase was revealed beneath one of the statues and the Panda Boy was taken below. Her tail perked up as her full attention was obtained by the strange, but fascinating situation.
She then left the window discreetly and set off to roam around the Cathedral, examining it while she waited for an opportunity to have some fun.

Yin and her somewhat companions manage to follow the few cloaked individuals to the large cathedral. the cloaked ones head up the stairs of the massive building and the front doors slowly open by themselves. After they enter, the doors close. Yin heads up the stairs and stops at the doors. "Hmm... how strange. It's almost like the doors only open for those cloaked guys. You have any thoughts or ideas, Artie? Vanilla?" Yin notes as she turns back to the two.

"Artemis. And can't we just...bust the doors open or something?" The anthro asked; stepping lightly towards the door and extending her silver-ish claws; scrapign them along the surface; ears flattening at the sound this action produced.
"Maybe...something a bit more powerful?" The cat suggested.

Yin scratches her chin as she looks down the street. She catches a glimpse of a few more cloaked beings heading in the cathedral's direction. Yin smiles and says, "I have a better idea." She then dashes down the stairs and directly at the cloaked ones. Seems like Yin plans on a headon attack.

"The idea isn't to use them to get in..." Yin notes as she does a flying jump kick to one of their heads. When Yin lands one the ground, she trips the same clocked being with a leg sweep. As soon as he hits the ground, Yin drops a leg onto his chest. "...But to use their cloaks to pass us up as their own." Yin finishes, just before a magical fireball hits her in the back. She flies a bit forward before landing hard on the ground.

Artemis nods slightly; 'dancing' light-footedly across the makeshift battle area. Hr extended claws become fogged with a thick red colour; and with a swipe she send a magical missile towards the nearest 'monk' - one that would burn like hell on slightest contact. Seeing her fighitng partner drop, Artemis bounds to the Pandas side. "Ah, you'll pull through." She states, jumping this way and that as magic seems to be thrown carelessly around.

Yin become quite a bit aggitated towards the mages nailed her in the back. She immediately flips back to her feet and chages directly at that one. She tackles him to the ground and repeatedly slams her fist into the nothingness of his face. The mages have been dealt with and the cloaks instantly become empty. Yin looks at Artemis with a questionative look on her face and then back down at the empty cloaks. "So much for stripping them down." Yin adds in her words, before picking up a cloak for herself to use.

Her ears twitched. She scampered over to the entrance and gazed below. There were women down there. They were very much older than her. They wanted in to the Cathedral, but the Cathedral seemed to be picky about its visitors and rejected their arrival. They talked to each other about crashing the party she caught a glimpse of earlier.
She tilted her head inquiringly at the one woman. She was the one who was taken in prior. His sister? She must have been. They had an uncanny resemblance to one another. This looked like fun. Why pass it up?
Wow, they could fight! They were a little unorthodox, but they â€"did- accomplish something rather intelligent…assuming they -would- be accepted to enter the Cathedral. She smiled at the situation as the excitement rose. Her tail wagged eagerly.
She hopped from her perch and awaited the fun to come. This could prove to be enjoyable exercise.

Artemis rose her head, scenting, vaguely, the scent of the other being. Looking around, her bright blue eyes caught nothing and the anthro gave a shrug - blowing at the tips of her reddish claws before retracting them, and bending down to pick up a cloak.
Rising and twirling the cloak around her, she glanced back at Yin. "This better work."

Yin throws the cloak on and flips the hood over her head. She glances at Artemis and nods. She heads up the stairs and just as Yin predicted, the doors open up. She was surprised, herself. When they enter, they would notice about twenty statues that resemble the cloaked beings. The red cloaked being at the far end of the building leans over the podium whenb he notices the new arrivals. "Report!" He bellows, assuming that they are mages. Yin grins as she lowers her hood to reveal her face and she then brings up he right hand to flip off the red mage. "Report this!" Yin yells back as she then walks towards the red one. "Now tell me where my brother is and I'll promise not to kill you slowly." She finishes before the red mage begins to laughs. "Fools! You underestimate the Mages' Cult!" After the red mage yells out, all but the two statues closest to the alter take form of acual mages and begin to conjur up spells to send at the intruders. This will be a long battle fought.

It worked. It really worked! They had fooled the Cathedral into letting them in. She peered back into the window like before and watched. Oooh…she was vulgar…and not too nice either. She had some guts demanding and threatening like that. That was sure bold of her.
The Siamese cat; on the other hand, interested her. The magic she used to defend herself earlier caught her eye. She was warned of this -magic-. It was something she had not yet witnessed, up until now anyway. But she could not resist to be dazzled by that sort of power. It was -different-, and that’s what amazed her.
Ack…that was new! The odds had just turned against the women she â€"supposedly- took the side of. More magic… All those statues now protecting -Mr. Big red, horrible fashion statement-? Now that wasn’t fair. How pathetic. Did he not have balls to fight himself? Or did he feel too â€"All high and mighty- to be bothered with what he thought to be â€"low level fighters-?
She watched intently, sill remaining completely out of sight and mind. A grin sat upon her face. Eager to see the outcome, she twitched with impatience. But she controlled her urges quickly as she did not need to be discovered, not now anyay.

Snarling in surprise, Artemis shoots a death-glare at the panda. "You just HAD to piss them off!" She growls, whipping off the cloak and tossing it by her feet. "Ok, boys..." She starts, extended her claws and shaking them slightly to make them a deep, blood-red color. "That all you got?" She taunts, tail whipping.

At that very moment, a few fire and ice balls were headed at where Artemis was standing and where Yin is now standing. The spells then fizzle right before they were about to strike Yin down. Yin remains dumbfounded as the Red Mage yells out, "Bah! What are they doing with our protective cloaks?!" Yin's smile covers her face as she glances at Artemis, "Artie, put the cloak back on.

Jeeze, she was clumsy too. They must not know the meaning of teamwork. She sighed without a sound and shook her head. Could they be anymore uncoordinated? Oh well, it was still entertaining to watch.
The spells dissolved! Talk about irony. Having their own cloaks used against them must suck. They had better know how to defend themselves without their precious magic.
Eager to step in, she just sat there and fidgeted, refraining from assisting. She would help later, if she must. Hmmm, better make that a yes. She couldn’t just miss out on any of this. That would be like torture. But not now. Not yet. When the time was right for her, she would enter.

Artemis' bright blue eyes blinked in surprise as the magic fizzled and died before it touched the cloak. Smirking, she scooped up the cloak and flung it on in a single, fluid movement. "Well well, look what the cat dragged in..." She crooned; dashing in the direction of the nearest spell-caster, ears laced firmly, teeth bared and claws reddened and ready. Man was this going to hurt. With her first swipe, she tore into the Mage's shoulder, sending waves of intense heat into his nervous system. With another swipe, she silenced him by slicing open his throat with a single claw - neat, quick and very effective.

As Artemis tears through the mages, no blood is spilled at all. Their embodiments merely vanish, leaing only their cloaks. Yin has her own means of bringing them down. She jumps up, plants a foot on one's chest, flips back, and lands her foot on another's face. As soon as she hits the ground, Yin jumps back up, doing a roundhouse kick to three more mage faces. When she lands, she comes down closer to the ground, continuing her spin and pulling a leg sweep to trip up the mages around her. She then comes back up, continuing her spin and using her ankle long braided pony tail to lash a few more faces. When she finally stops, Yin brings her hands up to her head and stumbles around a bit. "Whoa! I should do that more often. What a trip!" She adds before shaking her head and looks around for her next victims.

"Bravo." Artemis muses. "No, its my turn." Glancing around, she spots a mage standing there, searching. Dashing towards him and leaping, feet scraping against his skull, she mutters a quick "Allez oop..." and jumps, twisting in the air, sending waves of intense heat to every mage in the area, heat that would kill if in contact for long enough - but otherwise leave most harshly injured.

"Jeez, Artie! I knew you were hott, but that was rediculous!" Yin states half-jokingly. The Red Mage become infuriated and holds his hand out saying, "Enough!" The rest of the mages that were still conscious or still alive suddenly vanish, leaving their cloaks. The Red Mage then walks around the podium and glares at Yin and Artemis. "You two have caused far more trouble with the Mages' Cult than any others all put together. No one has dared to cross paths with the Cult, but now you two cross the line. And for what? A mere panda boy? Someone you know nothing of what power he has?" Yin gets a bit agitated with the Red Mage ruining a bit of her fun and she then begins to yell at him, "That mere panda boy is my brother! And I know good and well of his power. He's a weakling and without me, he would be a lost cause." The Red Mage begins to laugh. Yin stops for a second and the mage continues. "That's where you are wrong. Ever since 'His' arrival into our lands, we have been observing him. We know of the destruction he has caused the jungle and we wish to utilize his abilities to further our powers." After the mage's statement, Yin begins to laugh uncontrollably. She knows good and well who he is really talking about and she can't get anything out through the laughter. The Red Mage is now vastly confused for the sudden reaction.

She watched the fight intently. The women preformed nifty feats of acrobatics along with their martial arts. Mage after mage was taken down by the two. Each had their own special style it seemed. The Cat with her -unique- razor claws and the Panda with her brute force.
Mr. Red was getting agitated. They proved a nuisance to him and he couldn’t stand it. Her ears perked at the sudden voice. The minions vanished. One swift command and they were gone! He -was- getting pissy. What? The fighting had halted? What’s this; they were exchanging words instead of blows now.
Explanation usually was- a good thing, but it was -so- boring. Well, now she knew something was up. The Panda Girl’s hysterical laughter hinted to some unknown fact that would make the captive useless to the mages. But what? Now she too was left out. She wanted more enlightenment. She couldn’t stand to be left in the dark.

Her words are stumbling over the Panda boy. That must be why she is here. She holds back a giggle at who she knows as -Artie-. One can only assume by her reaction why she can’t get out what she wanted to say.
Her attention immediately shifted her interest back to the seemingly cocky Panda girl as she started to explain the situation with her laughter dieing. A fusion?! Two beings that could bond their body’s and become one, increasing the output of the new individual. That truly caught her curiosity.
-Big Red- seemed fascinated, but then shrugged it off without a care. Uh oh, is he about to strike? He is! Her eyes widen as the orb of fire slams into the Panda, propelling her backward. Se covers her eyes as the crack and crumble was heard from the impact with a nearby wall. Of course, why wouldn’t the leader have power over lower servants? His magic could penetrate the inferior black cloaks. Oh well.
A loud bang was unexpectedly heard as the â€"Big Red Bitch’s- head kicks back and his limp carcass smacks the ground with a loud thump. If you follow the source, you would find this small girl stanced ever so calmly on an upper balcony-like ledge inside the Cathedral. Right between the eyes, very impressive aiming. She smiled happily as her weapon pointed upward, barrel smoking with steam from the heat of shot.
She then lowered her firearm and cocked back the upper pin. She placed it at her side and waved at any responses below. Her ears perked and her tail stood happy as her grin continued.

Now that was uncalled for. She knew better that to threaten someone, especially if you might underestimate them.
As soon as his hand met her position, she felt something coming. Her ears twitched and her eyes widened. As fast as that bolt of lightning if not faster, she aimed her weapon and pulled the trigger. The pin released and a small turbine began to spin. Within that instant, the upper chamber snapped forward with a boom. A condensed black energy fired, spiraling into the lightning, right before her arm.
On contact, the magic was vaporized along with the shell and she was sent back with immense recoil from the close range of the explosion. She stepped forth and gazed back down at â€"Little Red Riding Bitch- with a hint of laughter in her eyes. Her heart raced. Was that all? His attack failed. She sure showed him.

Poor Artie. That seemed a little too unfair for her, getting tossed and all. Then Miss Panda stepped in abruptly. She seemed peeved at the Mage’s neglect to answer her. But who knows what kind of advantages he had over them. Better safe than sorry.
She then cocked the upper pin once more. She waited for a special opportunity, hoping there would be one. She needed a clear shot for this one, otherwise… Just in case, she clicked and cocked a second pin. One on the bottom this time. She just might have to make a plan B if needed.

Hmm, bullets didn’t seem to faze him; better try the next level. Artie went poof! Very unusual attack. Teleportation, interesting. She wanted to know more about Magic with each technique she saw. How much more could the Red Mage get angry? What could he possibly do next?
What’s this?? A barrier? Distracted, she reaches out to touch the bubble when it suddenly fades away. She heard the Panda yelling and turned her attention toward a headless Mage and a collapsed Panda girl. Aww, she missed it, dang. But was he really dead this time?
She leapt down from her perch, landing softly and quietly. She stood and started slowly over to the others. She still wasn’t too confident with getting close yet. She contemplated some possible outcomes as she had yet to reach too close. After all, he was already dead. What’s to stop him now? She shivered slightly a just the thought of the undead, never actually witnessing the real thin before.

Observing Artie, she sniggered in amusement. She seemed a little claustrophobic. But she didn’t complain; everyone has faults. Ack, he’s still kickin’! She stared in astonishment at the body assaulted the Panda girl after its beheading. She started off in her direction when the head suddenly spoke from across the room where it lied.
Eek, now that’s just creepy. This -thing- refused to rest in peace! How cumbersome. Her ears twitched once again. She halted and reversed herself abruptly, facing the head that Artie now held. How annoying. Why won’t you die?! She frowned in frustration as she slid backward as she came to a stop.
She lifted her weapon and pulled the trigger. A deep thud sound was heard, deeper than the rest. Splat, right into the temple. The bullet wedged itself in as it barely missed Artie from her angle. That slug sounded flat and large. Something heavy, used for a different purpose.
The eyes rolled back into the head as it gurgled faintly. She covered her eyes in uneasiness, knowing the outcome of her act. The head then shook violently. She cringed. Boom! The head exploded. Whatever leftover brain tissue or blood remaining now covered Artie’s front side.
She peeked out through her arms and gazed at the outcome. She lowered her arms and gave a look of apology, remaining unspoken. She gave a small smile, feeling awful that she had just embarrassed Artie.

The Mage's body finally limps to the ground, releasing Yin. The panda girl is fully unaware of what has just occured, but is fully greartful that she can breathe again. Words and actions aren't important to her for the moment. She decides to lay there to gather her strength and energy.

With a muffled snarl of horror, Artie finds herself covered in reddish, fleshy goo. "Ugh..." She grunts, as soon as she clears away an area by her mouth with the back of her hand. She shakes herself frantically, eventually giving up on ridding herself of the substance. And she was NOT about to lick it off, either. Shifting towards Yin, she sighs. "We better find Yang..." She states; looking quite comical with her fur in an odd, red tone.

She giggled, trying not to be offensive. She couldn’t help it. Artie looked silly, she just had to laugh. She turned back and headed off toward the Panda. She stood over her head with her hands on her knees with a silly smile as the Panda girl lied there exhausted.
She held up what appeared to be a peace sign with her fingers. Wow, these women were strange. But they sure are fun to hang out with. What could possibly happen next? What terrors would they face after they passed the hidden entrance? â€"If- they passed the hidden entrance.
Yang was it? Is that the Boy Panda’s name? The one that Artie stuttered over? The one she was possibly in a relationship with? Hmm, interesting. Wait. The abilities the Panda girl just showed…doed her brother hhace them too? And the Fusion…she really wanted to witness that.

Yin finally sat up and looked over towards the little girl with cat ears and a tail. She beams a smile back at the little girl with the words, "Too bad you're too young. I could have fun with you." Yin's mind is always in the gutter. Afterall, she is a sexaholic. She glances over in Artemis' direction and stiffles a laugh. "H-hey Artie! That's a good look for you!" Yin calls out. She then proceeds to stand up and scans the immediate area. "Now that undead bastard said something about the entrance to Yang's chamber is in this very room. Oh, yeah. It just had to be an enormous room. Finding Yang is going to take quite a while." She finishes, rubbing the back of her head.

Well well, that was an unexpected offer. Though she might graciously accept, she refrained from any form of physical contact. She feared it for some reason. She still smiled happily at her words, blushing a bit. She stood back as The Panda girl rose and examined the great room.
She turned to Artie as she retorted agitatedly. She couldn’t help but be amused. She tried to contain herself at Artie’s tinted fur. She wasn’t one to be rude, but she was still a child. Every so often she glanced inconspicuously at the remaining statues.

Yin noticed the statues that still remained in the room and it begins to make her wonder. "Ya know, it's pretty strange that these two statues didn't come to life when the others did. What do you think, Artie?" Yin questions as she approaches the one on the right side of the building, not knowing that the one on the left is the entrance to the Mage Cult underground basking. "You think they might have some sort of connection to something?" She finishes, inspecting the statue.

Constantly attempting to scrape whatever guk she could off her pelt, she walked to the one of the left and rubbed her side agianst it, like a cat marking its territory. "Don't know." She stated, satisphied the job the rough surface of the statue had done on removing some of the more liquidized brains. Looking at the statue with an unblinking gaze, she tapped its surface with a single, curved cat-claw.

She stood between the two statues, watching the Panda girl whose name she still didn’t know. She started to inspect the statues. She’s getting warmer. Too bad she’s on the wrong end of the fifty/fifty chance between the two. Anyway, it shouldn’t be a problem. The women seemed smart enough.
She then wandered on over to the left statue seeming to follow Artie. But not because of the statue. Maybe something else. She smiled cutely up at Artie as the Siamese cat cleaned herself on the cars chiseled stone. Her ears flickered and perked as her tail strayed back and forth cheerfully.

Yin stands there as she scratches her chin. These two statues may serve as some significance to the so-called holding chamber, but how? A simple thought crosses Yin's mind and she simply shrugs. She then takes a few paces away from the statue and turns back around towards it. She finally dashes forward and leaps up to do a flying kick at the head of the statue, causing it to topple over and break a bit on the ground. Nothing. Just a stone base. She then looks over towards the remaining statue where the felines are. "Hmm... Hey, Artie! Back up a bit." Yin calls out before chaging at the statue. She pulls off the same flying kick to topple over the statue. Still nothing. Another stone base. "Damn... maybe somewhere else." She mumbles to herself as she begins to wander around again.

She continued to hang around Artie as the Panda girl continued her investigation of the Cathedral. She turned in surprise to se the statue fall under the effort of that woman. Suddenly, she and Artie were warned as she came head on at the statue where they resided. Thud…the second statue hit the ground, crumbling like the first.
Well, she had the basic idea. Too bad the passage was literally under her nose and the statue’s base, not the statues themselves. She dodged effortlessly in the clear. She then walked through the leftover rubble ad hopped up on the base. She then had herself a nice seat, resting. Her feet dangled off the edge as she kicked back and forth, watching to see what would be tried next.

Artemis barely had time to correct Yin with a practised yell of "Artemis." Before she sidestepped out of the way of the charging anthro. Blue eyes glint as she looks at the two, similar stone bases. "What if the entrance is under one of them?" She suggested; looking hard at the left one - hoiping to see a small gap, or something.

"You may be right, Artie. There's surely only one way to find out." Yin notes as she stands over the left stone statue base. She then taps he foot on it. "Well, it doesn't sound hollow. Stand back, I have an idea." With her words, Yin jumps down from atop the stone base and crouches down before it. She slowly places her right fist on the stone surface and closes her eyes. Slowly, she raises her fist above the base and holds it in the air for a moment. With a "Haa!!" Yin brings her fist down onto the stone surface and it instantly cracks and folds inward. The two pieces of the two foot thick stone slab then fall into a newly discovered hole and slide down a spiral staircase that leads quite a ways down. Yin finally stands up, shaking off the pain in her right hand and glances at the two felinelike females. "Hurt like a bitch, but it's affective." Yin finishes as she slightly squints in pain.

She observed their deductions as they got warmer. Then the Panda girl stepped forward with her next idea. Suddenly the stone platform was crumbled and the entrance was reveled. She smiled in congratulations, looking in the Panda girl’s direction.
Since that was now over, on to the next level! At this point she would be in the dark for clues as they were, as far as secrets anyway. She was still not your average thinker. She could possibly be of exceptional use if needed.

She gazed into the hole. Wow, it was really deep. Very intense architecture. This stone palace of wonder was very impressive. She listened as Artie tried to volunteer, but was cut off by the Panda Girl’s abrupt leader-like persistence. It seemed the two only had one thing in common. This Yang person. Other than that, Artie didn’t seem to crazy about her partner.
As the Panda Girl dropped into the hole, she went next, before Artie could follow immediately. Unlike The Panda, she didn’t land on the staircase. She went straight down the empty center of the spiral. She quickly dropped out of view. Who knew if she’d make it to the bottom or not. Only one way to find out. If the others ever reach a bottom of some kind, they might find her…

"Hey!" Artemis exclaimed as she was left behind. Snarling she swiped at the air with glistening claws, just above where the panda's head had been moments before. Fur brisling she stood on the edge; then calmly stepped in - crossing her arms in an 'x' over her body."Nine lives..." She mused, mostly to herself. Bright blue eyes that glittered in even the palest of light vanished as she closed her eyes; letting the shadows envelope her.

She didn't actually hear Yin, for the wind was knocked out of the anthro as she landed on the shadowed ground on hands and knees with a rather audible THUD.

Just as Artemis stands up, Yin comes sliding down the railing. Before anyone could react, Yin collides into Artemis and they roll across the ground a ways. "Ouch..."

As the two collided and lie there, the kitten did not seem to be around. Where was she? Artie was there, but she wasn’t? As if out of thin air, she floated down gracefully and gently, landing on her feet. Almost no sound was heard as she appeared before them. She glanced at them as they lied there with her usual innocent smile.
How could she have managed to land after Artie? Oh well, she had her skills; even if they were somewhat unexplained. She waited patiently for the two to stand and continue the quest. She was in no hurry.

Artemis bares her teeth and hisses sharply as she finds herself ontop of the panda. Barely managing to control herself, for the will to slash the Panda across the face was really much to strong, she leapt delicately backwards, landing crouched before rising and glaring darkly at the anthro. Her blue eyes blinked in comical surprise as the little girl seems to appear from no where; and with no sound at that.

She slid past the two to get a closer look at their next challenge. She stood in the doorway and gazed down the Entry Hall. She was excited to start the next event now.
She turned back to the two with a joyful smile. Her tail swayed as she waited politely for someone else to take the lead. After all, it wasn’t her brother they were trying to rescue.

"Well, you're half right with that statement, Artie. I'm not even half right. What makes you perfect?" Yin sneers with a snicker as she walks away from Artemis in a random direction. Even a sence of direction wouldn't lead them through the maze. Luck is everything at the moment.
Yang finally opens his blue eyes and finds himself in what appears to be a cage. He stands up and brushes himself off before looking around a massive room. The doorways at the far end seem like they could allow King Kong to walk through without any problems. The first thing that catches his eyes is a black cloaked figure, standing near a throne. "Ah, you are awake." The dark figure states as he slowly nears the cage. Yang bares his teeth and dashes forward to grab onto the bars of his cage. To his surprise, the bars are serged with electricity which gives him a sudden jolt and sends him back against the wall the cage is up against. The panda boy merely glares up at the figure and asks, "What do you want with me?"

She sighed. Now was not the time to argue. These two proved to be immature sometimes in their own ways. She crossed her arms and shook her head, following not too far behind. As she walked, she began to feel uneasy. Not that she showed it much, but she felt something; something bad. She hid her feelings and tried to ignore it, trailing behind.
Suddenly, her ears twitched and her fur stood up on end. It wasn’t too noticeable, but she was bothered somehow. She became more discomforted every second. The symptoms began to show more. So she just stayed behind them, hoping to go unnoticed.

"Oh, really? If I'm so clumbsy, that would make my foolish brother just the same. Whenever Yang and I work as a team, we are near unstoppable. We are anything but clumsy. And no wonder you're always so stuck up, Princess. Cockiness is a major downfall, the way I see it." Yin's constant babble could provide for some major annoyance and she knows it. It's in her nature to be highly disliked. That's when a loud roar rings throughout the labyrinth. Yin stops as her eyes widen.
The cloaked figure stares out at Yang and smiles under the hood of his cloak. "To be honest, you are only half of what I want, Yang." The panda boy's eyes widen as he stands back up in the cage. "How do you know of my name?" Yang asks, lost in a bit of confusion. The cloaked figure nears the cage and crosses his arms behind his back. "I know a lot about you, Yang. I also know a lot about your dear sister, Yin. But most of all, I know of the fusion you two share. My means are to unite the two of you under my control, so that the Earth could easily be overthrown." Yang is tempted to reach out of the cage and punch the being, but recalls the hazardous bars. "You are mad! Yin and I could berely control Nubez. What makes you think you could?" The cloaked being nears the cage, closer than before and lowers the hood of his cloak to show Yang who he is. "Because I have the power to do so." Yang backs away from the bars of the cage, almost stumbling over himself as he stares at the Mage's face. "Y-you..." Yang finishes, seeming as if he's seen a ghost.

Yin simply glares at Artemis as she continues to pick up the pace. "You ask as if I would know what the Hell that was." Yin barks at the figgity feline. Little did they know that the next corner they round could lead them to the hands of fate.
The Black cloaked mage flips the hood back over his head and stalks away from the cage. "I thought you would remember the face." The figure notes, nearing the throne in the room. "How are going to restrain my sister? She is by far, tougher than I." Yang asks as he slowly creaps away from the wall to keep his eyes on the being. The Black Mage laughs a bit before answering the question. "I do not intend on capturing her, for she is already falling deep into my trap." The dark being picks up a small remote off the arm of the throne and clicks a button towards the opposing wall of the room. An image appears of a bit of a maze. There appear to be three small red dots moving in the same direction on a certain path of the maze. There is also a much larger red dot moving towards the three smaller ones. "You see, Yang. She is already on her way here for you. It's only a matter of time before you two unite." Yang's eyes widen as he figures that the Mages' Cult is more powerful than expected.

She too heard the loud bellow of something. It sounded big, real big. Her eyes shot open at the sound as her fur stood up on end. It wasn’t fear; she was just startled from her mind being elsewhere. This was something, but it wasn’t what irritated her. There was something more, something worse.

The trio finally round the corner and Yin is the first to stop dead in her tracks. Apparently, the others haven't noticed yet. Before them, stands a twenty five foot tall minotuar with white, pupiless eyes and a wickedly massive battle ax in hand. He grunts once and steam seemingly pours out of his nostrils. The gold nose ring seems like it could fit around Yin's waist. "Yeah, well I believe we passed up a fork in the maze a ways back. Maybe that could be a shortcut to Yang."

Being behind the two, she noticed last, the entity behind the gargantuan bellow. It was true to its voice. As the two ran past in the opposite direction, she gazed up at the beast in wonder as well as shock. It did not look too friendly; and that weapon didn’t encourage friendliness.
She then realized the situation and snapped out of her stare. She broke eye contact with the monster and turned to face the others running off. She looked back at the giant then back at the two.
