Trevor was naturally angered by getting interrupted, but he knew he could not take on the "oh-so righteous" Gantz with his skill because he had Soul Calibur, meaning he must've been a great warrior. So he could only seethe with rage as he went and picked his sword up. The rage soothed down until it dissapeared as he went towards Perceval, however, and he placed his hand on the French boy's shoulder softly. "Percy... Let's go home," he said. "Nothing left here but crushed hopes and broken hearts."

Double D nodded. "That's right." The tension felt by the rest of the group did not go unnoticed. The air was getting very thick, and it was hard for him to breathe. The feeling was accented with Percy tugging shyly on his shirt, looking up at him beggingly. He really wanted to leave this place.
"...but I honestly don't think this is the best time or place to catch everyone up. I'm sure we're all exhausted, and all this dark energy is making me quite uncomfortable."
"But that's a sign your powers are still working," Skywise noted, grinning as he sat atop his wolf, readying to leave.
Double D slowly nodded, facing everyone. "Before I forget... thank you, all of you, for coming for me. If you hadn't stopped her, I... I would've been long gone."

Hammy made a disapproving noise towards Double D, and then turned to Gantz. "And you. Don't heal your fucking enemies. It'll just come back to bite you in the ass later on." Since he didn't really care about Him, Hammy wasn't really paying too much attention to the conversation, just stored away whatever he could.
About a moment later, Fishhook finally showed up with a first aid kit, and got to work on Hammy's injuries. "Ow! Hey, be careful, Fishhook! I know you have to work fast, but jeez..." Hammy mumbled. "Well, hurry up, I hate being around these guys while injured."

"Be more careful from now on. With your new powers, more people are going to want you out of the way." The Wizard chastised. "Eventually, you're going to have to learn how to take preemptive action."
Without another word, the Wizard vanished in a burst of psychic energy.

Gantz looked around; he had forgotten about the dark energy here out of all honesty. Soul Calibur had been doing a good job in holding it back. "Yeah, we might as well get outta here. Place gives me the creeps..."
Otto glanced at Gantz a moment before shrugging. "I really can't feel anything, but I suppose this is not the proper place to talk, anyhow."
The sound of someone clearing his throat came to the groups attention as they turned to see Specter glaring at them, arms crossed. "Oh heya Specter." Gantz turned and glared right back at him. "Whatcha call me here for?"
The group looked extremely surprised as they turned to Specter. The monkey scoffs at the looks. "If you MUST know, I called you here to handle that Spider Witch, which you failed to do, if I may add."
"WHA?!?!?!?!?!?!" Wally was extremely confused at this point. "But, I thought you worked for Nida!!!"
Specter waved the boy off, "I'm afraid I do not, I'm not one. You see, Nida wanted me to perform the task of acting as castle security, do that, and I'd have an instant ticket home." He grinned a little, looking a bit smug. "Gantz was coming here so he could... Cut Nida out of the picture." At the surprised faces, he explained further, "However, I knew Nida would see further use in me after this one job; So I decided to make sure our deal would have... 'No Strings attached', you could say." He snapped his fingers, "It also had a double value as well; IF Nida provided me with a portal, Gantz would do me the favor of getting rid of the Spider Queen thus giving me free reign to use the portal to transport my entire army here."
"And you'll use it to take over Dimensional Island, folowed quickly by the entire Universe." Gantz guessed, causing Specter to shrug. He shook his head. "Typical Specter."

Now thoroughly bandaged up and starting to heal, thanks to Animu Rule #142 being thoroughly in effect (Bandages heal EVERYTHING), Hammy sat up, and took a look at Specter before mumbling "dirty monkey" and "stealthfully" (as stealthful as a horribly injured mutant squirrel could be anyways, meaning that someone most likely noticed and just didn't care) slipped away from the group of his enemies.
"Whatever's up with the angel and his entourage, it could be useful to Dolphi. Especially the angels," Hammy whispered.

Double D wordlessly watched the Wizard disappear. No matter how much he loathed the man... he had a point. Nida would return. And next time, he won't hesitate.
"....So..." Eddy made a face of puzzlement. "Is it a GOOD thing we didn't stop her, or what?"
"Probably not in the long run, but definitely not for monkey-man," Raz smirked, shrugging. "Oh well. Couldn't be helped."
"The important thing is that we prevented her from devouring Double D," Fleetfoot reminded. "Regardless of her henchman's motives."
"Yup! So, so sorry!" Raz waved to the psychic monkey, though his grin showed that he was anything but sorry.

Trevor helped Percy and began to take him home. But then a signal flashed in the air. "What is... that?" Felix asked.
"Could be anything... best to ignore it," Trevor said.

Double D, however, was not quick to ignore it. He stared off into space, confusing his friends.
"...Double D...?" Ed quietly asked.
"...it's him," he replied, barely over a whisper. "...he's... summoning us... me."

"... Trevor... a word," Felix said. He pulled Trevor off to have a private conversation with him. After some words, Trevor nodded and then took Perceval and departed for the apartment complex. Felix stood by Edward. "I won't let you go alone," he said.

Double D nodded, taking Felix's hand and turning to everyone else. "Forgive our abrupt exit."
"...it's the Wizard finally, isn't it?" Raz asked, to which Double D nodded.
"What!? You're taking on the Wizard by yourselves!?"
"This is something we have to do, Eddy!" He paused, calming down. "...I'm asking all of you to trust us. Please."
(we'll continue on with 42 at the church, Felix, just wait up for Gantz and FF on here)

When the smart-mouth response from Raz came, Specter merely grinned evilly. "Oh don't worry, there are thousands of other ways to make a portal. All I need to do is find one." He shook the gang off. "Regardless, I no-longer have time to mess around with you vermin. Ciao!" And with that, he vanished in a small puff of smoke.
When Wizard's message came however, all attention came off Specter and onto Double D and Felix. "Hmmm..." Wally thought a moment. "Well mate, if your thinkin' of going off to get this guy, then you can count me in! I still have a lotta fight left in me."
"Wally..."
The boy turned to Otto, giving him a strange look. "Maybe you should go back to the apartment. You know, look after Helga." He motioned a thumb at himself. "I'll go with Double D, I might be needed."
"But.. But mate! That's no fun!"
Otto gave Wally a piercing glare. "Someone's gotta look after Helga; lord knows she's suffered enough already."
After a moment of thinking, Wally finally nodded. "Okay mate, I'll go see to her."
"As for me," Came Gantz suddenly, he took a few backsteps. "My friend is still waiting for me to come back. I need to go make sure he's okay."
Otto grabbed his shoulder. "Wait..." He gave Gantz a hard look. "Where can we find you?"
"At an old house not too far away from the old church." He answered immediately. "House number specifically is 5874." He saluted to Otto breifly. "Till then." FLASH!!!! Just as dust is 'Gone with the wind' so to was Gantz in a flash of light.
Otto turned back to Double D, "Shall we get going?"

"...I guess I can't convince you otherwise," Double D decided, nodding to the others. "The rest of you should return home, to protect Marion and everyone else... and perhaps even help find Masahiro."
Skywise nodded in understanding. "Makes sense to me. No sense in getting involved in a brawl we can't fight in."
"...alright, fine," Eddy grumbled, and as everyone began to file out, he jabbed a finger into Double D's chest. "You just make sure to come back alive, you got it!? I'll be PISSED if we rescued you from that spider chick for nothing!"
Double D blinked, taken aback. "A...alright. I'll be careful." Watching them all leave, he nodded to Felix and Otto.
"Alright... I'm ready."

Hammy watched from nearby as they all ran off to fight the Wizard. "I better follow, even if I'm not getting into the battle..." He looked down at his zombie companion.
"Keep an eye out for anyone while we get away, 'k?" Hammy asked Fishhook. Fishhook nodded, and the two of them quietly slipped away, to join the group at whereever they were meeting.
