=Back to the Midnight Realm=
A loud cackle burst out from the tall dark post in the center of the dark tower. Our heroes started to get up and were padding the dust off their clothes. However, Akuma seem not to care at all. His eyes were flaring at the top of the tower, his back and tail arched.

Pai: O_O W-w-w-where are we?

Haz: Eek... >.<

Hwo: WHAT-THE-FUCK?!

Ukyo: Sweet mercy...we're-

Akm: MICAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

At that point, the dark figure swooped down on them and landed a few feet behind Akuma, her back turned towards them. Just as she was turning around, still laughing, Akuma dashed over and ringed her neck. But instead of fighting back, MiCah floated upwards and let Akuma push her to the wall. She laughed harder, the stiches on her lips almost giving away, making Akuma even more furious.

Pai: Who...who's that?!

Haz: I want to get out of here!!!

Jin: Akuma-!!!

Akm: YOU GOOD FOR NOTHING BITCH!!! WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?!!! WHAT?!!! ANSWER ME BACK YOU ASSHOLE OR I'LL-

MC: Or you'll WHAT?! You should be careful of your actions Akuma! You're in MY territory! You don't want them to be SUDDENLY swallowed in by the walls! HAHAHA!!!

Akm: YOU BASTARD! YOU FIEND!

Ukyo: Akuma...drop her.

Akm: WHAT?!!! AFTER WHAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH?!!! AFTER SHE PLAYED WITH US AND ALMOST GOT US KILLED, YOU WANT ME TO JUST LET HER FUCKING BE?!!!

Ukyo: ...Well, actually, I think she can explain better if you weren't strangling her...

Akm: HMPH...

Akuma gave her one angry glare then quickly withdrew his hands. He started to go back to the gang. MiCah dusted her shoulder and neck, no longer laughing, but had a wide ugly grin on her face.

Jin: W-what's this all about? Why are we here?

MC: Hmph! Fools! To go to your destination of course!

Hwo: Huh?!

Ukyo: What do you mean?

MC: (Laughed) You really think that you can find the key to your destination by searching hard for it?! Hahaha! It's been with me all along!

All: WHAT?! O_o?!

Akuma was going to do a mad dash again, but Ukyo held him back.

MC: If you still don't know, I've just been toying with you. It's been pretty boring here. Luckily, you imbeciles trust guardians too much! Besides, that's the price I wanted for your journey. Hahaha! Akuma, Akuma...you still haven't learned that I'm not necessarilly the most trustworthy companion!

Akm: YOU JUDAS! YOU-

MC: Look at yourself before you call me that, Akuma! You betrayed him first! You left me to be his slave forever! You wanted to use your powers for yourself too! Did you bother to tell me?! No...well now we're even!

Akm: ...

Hwo: O_O...WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?! FOR HELL'S SAKE, CAN'T WE JUST GO?! THIS PLACE IS CREAPIN' US OFF OUR PANTS!!!

MiCah gave Bob a cold stare that froze him and made his spine tingle. But she just turned around and grabbed a portal key by a small circular stone table. She tossed it to Jin who caught it by both hands.

MC: That will lead you directly where you want to go. Now leave! GO BEFORE I CHANGE MY MIND!

Without hesitation, the gang scrambled to get the hell away from the place (No pun intended). Akuma, the only one who wasn't in a hurry, was the last to disappear. Before which he starred at MiCah, who was starring back at him with anger.

= FINALLY! We're here! Thank God! =

They all fell down again in a pile, Bob being again the doormat.

Hwo: Hey! Get-mmm...chocolate...

As they got up, they were awestruck by the place they were in.

All: O_O Wow...

The land of Lush was completely made of food. Ice cream or gellatin hills of every flavor, Pudding Pools, clouds of Cotton Candy though some were plain water (the clouds were EXTREMELY low), pebbles of M&M's and mints, a river of chocalate, UFO tarts and pies, poles of candy canes, chocolate and cookie houses. Everything was made of food. The gang's clothes were stained with it (Especially Bob's, since he landed flat on the chocolate river) but they were already too hungry to mind.

Hwo: Whoa! Now THIS is the best place we've been in!

Jin: (Cuts of a twig) Mmm...(munch, munch)...Chocolate covered cookies!

Ukyo: Oh look! Bread stick pollution from the chocolate river! Being a bit of and evironmentalist, I must help clean it (takes the bread stick and eats it)

Haz: Oh look! The mud's blueberry cake!

Akm: (Who was holding some toffee, cotton candy, an ice cream on a piece of loaf, some candy canes...)Mif uf goof fing wef ere! Arm hunry!

U+J: Don't talk when you're mouth is full.

Pai: >.< Urm...

Hwo: Hey Pai why aren't you eating? (Picks a candy flower and offers it to her)

Pai: Stop tempting me! I'm on a diet! >.<

Akm: Oooh... (Munches harder and louder)

Pai: ARGH! Akuma! >:-8

Hwo: C'mon eat! It's not like a few's gonna fatten you up.

Ukyo: (After grabbing for a water cloud and squeezing the water out of it. ) I hate to spoil the fun, but we better get going.

Jin: Where exactly is it?

Ukyo: Somewhere north...over there I guess...

Akm: Well then, let's go!

Pai: Finally...

Haz: Can't we stay a bit? I'm not yet finished. And I heard it's bad to be so locomotive when eating.

Akm: Munch munch...

Pai: ARGH!

= The Temple =

The journey was quite fun, though the rule "Never play with your food" was totally ignored. They bounced around on a Jell-o hill, slid off it and continued the ride through the river. Then they had a swimming race in a huge UFO tart that landed. After which they played snow fight with milk shake snow. All the time they never forgot to take a little of anything around them. When they finally got to the temple, they were all full (Even Pai who finally agreed to eat) and soaked with every kind of food.

Hwo (looking at his shirt): Damn! Whoever's gonna be the laundry guy when we return will have SOME SERIOUS SCRUBBING!

Haz: (burp) *^^* Excuse me

The temple was, of course, made of food. The usual kind of Jap temple you'd see in most Animes. A sign posted on a wall read: Do not eat!

Akm: :)

Ukyo: Akuma...>:(

Akm: I won't! :D

The huge doors opened . A slender woman covered with pure white silk appeared.

Akm: Ooh...the light...

Hwo: (Whistles)

Pai: Rang...

Hwo: Ehehehe! ^_^;;; No,no,no, I meant the place is so clean and all so I whistled!

Pai: Hmph! >:(

Wom: Come in. We've been expecting you...

The woman led them in. After a few minutes of walking (Akuma secretly chipping pieces off the wall, which was candy coating. Once, he licked the lillipop glass), the woman stopped. There was another door at the end of the hall.

Wom: Go on...he awaits you...

They walked passed the woman, a bit anxious.

Pai: W-what do you think he'll look like?

Hwo: I dunno...maybe like a Jedi Knight?

Haz: Maybe he's got 3 eyes, a large mouth with sharp teeth and his skin is of dark scale-

Ukyo: Haz...you've been traumatized by the zombies too much...

Haz: Ehehehe...^_^;;;

Jin: Maybe he's a monk. Y'know, someone like Lei-Fei?

Akm: (Can't talk. Munching secretly)

They stopped by the doors. Taking a deep breath...Ukyo was going to knock but it opened before his knuckles can reach the it...A bright light  came out from it, blinding them.

All: O_O Gasp!

Priest: WELCOME, my young wanderers!

All: HUH?!

They looked around the room. No one was in it, nothing can be seen for that matter. The room was pure white. They cotinued to look around...then they looked down.

All: NYAAAAAAH!!! O_O!!!

The priest was an old short, VERY short man (Only a few inches above Jin's knee) with a long white beard and eyebrows. He had a hat on. He was wearing a blue robe and was holding a staff as tall as Akuma. A sake jar hung by his belt.

Hwo: Whoa! I was expecting Obi-wan or someone else, but not Yoda!

Ukyo+Haz: Nicotine?!

Nic: Ukyo-sama! Hazuki! My, my...if it isn't my old student's former rival.

Jin: You...know this guy?

Ukyo: Yes. He's Haohmaru's sensei. My goodness! This is the job you found?

Nic: What about...Bob?

Hwo: What?

Haz: Nono, he said JOB.

Nic: Oh, job! Ah yes...I very perfect job for a retired old man. Hic! Food everywhere and not to mention pretty young girls who serve me. Hehe...and all I have to do is sit and watch the flow of food all day...Ah...heaven, I am truly blessed. Buddha is good!

Ukyo: (Looks at his companions) Some people have all the luck...-.-

Nic: So what brings you here my sons and daughters?

Akm: COKE! We want the Coke back!

Nic: Uh...what did you say?

Akm: COKE!!!

Nic: What about the rope?

Hwo: Nonono, he said CO-KE! CO-KE!

Nic: Soak? You're already soaked!

Jin: NO, NO, COKE! C-O-K-E, COKE!!!

Nic: Oh, Coke!

Hwo: Finally! -.-

Nic: What about it?

Akm: IT-STOPPED-COMING. YOU-WITHHELD-IT-FROM-US-BECAUSE-OF-STUPID-MJ, REMEMBER?!!!

Nic: (Covering his ears) Don't shout at me, my son. I'm not on the other side of the hill.

Akm: TAGANG! (Drops ala-anime style)

H+J: -.- #

Nic: The Coke stopped? Oh, it did?

All: O_o What do you mean "Oh, it did"?!

Ukyo: You didn't know?!

Nic: Hmm...must've hit a button while sleeping by the computer...

All: Tagang! (Drops ala-anime style)

Nic: Come in come in, let's fix it.

What would've taken a few minutes took hours. First, Nicotine had to walk back to his computer, two rooms away. Considering his age, the gang felt they were taking a turtle for a walk. Though they offered to carry him, he wouldn't let them. They walked like they were in a funeral parade (Hwo: MAN! he even walks like Yoda!). FINALLY getting to the computer control room, Nicotine got started with the computer with an AMAZING seven letters per minute.

All: ZZZZZZZ...

FINALLY, Nicotine woke them up and told them the problem was solved.

Akm: Yawn...So what was it?

Nic: Double path. The water tube had mistaken a route. It passed on both its route and the Coke's.

Hwo: So it's okay now?

Nicotine nodded.

Nic: Thank you for informing me :china: sorry for any kind of distress who had to under go to get here...though I doubt there was any.

All: O_O YES THERE WERE, UNFORTUNATELY!!!

= The End? =

And so, our happy gang returned home. Akuma had his home pk so they only had to pass through one horror house. When they got back to the Tekken Conglomerate, everybody stared at their honey coated clothes.

Paul: Nohohoho! And I thought my laundry schedule was gonna be an easy one!
Anyway, things got back to normal quickly. Ukyo was back at his office the next morning with a jungle of paper work.

Ukyo: (Next Day, entering his office for the first time) O_O!!! Waaaa...hahahaha

Akm: Whoa! What happened here?

Ukyo: O_O Gagagahahayaya...(faints)

Luckily, Morrigan came to flirt again. Making herself useful, she massages Ukyo's forehead whenever it hurt, which was 99% percent of the time.

Akuma was now getting himself high with Coke. As he said, drink it while it lasts. Still snoopy, still a SOB, only high.

Akm: @_@ 'Coz I gotta high, coz I gotta high...lalalalalalala...

Unfortunately, being hyper he disturbs everyone most of the time.

Hazuki learned a valuable lesson at the end of the journey: Never eat too much sweets without brushing your teeth afterwards. After some visitations to the dentist and a sprite artist, she manage to get her pearly white teeth back. She also bought three new toothbrush and brushes her teeth often. Hopefully, her gums won't give up on her.

Pai hurried to the nearest facial center and got a full make over. After which she went straight to the mall to buy new shoes (with high heels. Some people never learn) and clothes. By the end of the day, she maxed out her all her credit cards.

Pai: (Seeing a pretty pink dress)O_O...Ahhh, I must have it! But...my cards...hmm...(Calls on her cellphone) Hello, Lee...

Hwoarang quickly injected himself with some marijuana (No just kidding). Ehem, going back to his night life...well, nothing new exactly, only that he has this absolute hate against parrots. Unfortunately...

Akm: Hey Bob! Look what I got you!!!

Par: Ngark! Got you! Ngark!

Hwo: NYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

As for Jin, well, Tekk took his raise back, much to his dismay. Because he was making a MGS site, no one looked after Tekkland. Now Paul, Kazuya and Lee took over it. Hopefully, Tekk will regain control after some coup against them.

Ah yes...everything seem back to normal...well...
After a few weeks, at the Ukyo's room, the gang were watching a horror film. Popcorn, sodas and everything, the lights turned off, Pai clinging to Bob whenever the scary part comes (Hwo: :D), Hazuki breaking Jin's arm in fear (Jin: Awawawawe...), Ukyo getting annoyed because Morrigan was doing the same things but not because she was scared, Akuma grinning whenever the gooey part comes...

Hwo: Psst...Akuma

Akm: Yeah?

Hwo: Hey, just pondering...

Akm: You ponder?

Hwo: Shut up! As I was saying, I mean, the Coke got stuck somewhere for a long time because the water took over it's pipe, right?

Akm: Yeah...so...?

Hwo: Well, where'd all the Coke go?

Suddenly at the middle of the film, a splash of Coke formed from the ground and there appeared...Sogetsu?

Ukyo: (Turning the lights on) What the?!

Haz: Brother!

Hwo: (Stained with Coke) Fuck!

Sog: WHAT DID YOU FOOLS DO?!

Akm: Huh?

Sog: THE PACIFIC! THE WHOLE PACIFIC OCEAN TURNED TO COKE!

All: O_O WHAT?! (Looks at the Camera)

Ukyo: Oh no (runs)

Jin: NOnononono...(runs)

Everybody runs except-

Akm: HEY! We're you guys going?! It's gonna be fun!!!
