"Right, then! Good luck with that!" Crash kept on walking, as if he hadn't heard what she said.

Once the group regained their breath, they found themselves looking down row upon row of tall (Up to 20 feet high.) and wide filing cabinets that looked like a great amount or hallways, walls lined with drawers.
"... ... ... This could take a while." Otto monotoned miserably.
Wally gawked at the sight. "Holy Yin..!!! This is... Unbelievable..! How could those mates outside find ANYTHING in here?!?"

"Let's not panick," Double D began searching the shelves. "There should be some categorization system... if we're lucky, it's by race. If not, then it's by name." Flipping a few file folders, he looked them over and sighed. "...by name. Of course."

"I repeat... This could take a while..." Otto groaned. Cracking his knuckles, he went to another Filing Cabinet Hall. "I elect that we split up; we'll cover more ground that way." He started with the nearest cabinet and started to finger through it's contents. "With any luck, it'll help us find what we're looking for faster."
Wally nodded in agreement, "I agree with Otto." He went off to another file cabinet hall with Courage in tow, "Me and Courage will look down here."
"And I'll look through here." Otto made clear before, closing the cabinet. "Good luck to us all, we're gonna need it."

"Okay! This way I go!" Ed darted down another hall.
Double D nodded, flipping through the cabinet of files he was already inspecting. He did this at home all the time, so he covered a good amount of ground in a short amount of time.
Until something very strange started to happen.
When flipping out his next folder, he went to lick his thumb before turning the pages. "...ow!" But something scraped against his tongue almost painfully when he did so, and the metallic taste of blood briefly lined his taste buds. Confused at first, then dreading, he looked down to find in complete horror the beginnings of claws forming on his hands.
Jumping and squeaking in surprise, he did his best to hide them, holding them to his chest as his gaze darted around, looking for escape. Otto was still nearby, his back turned to him, but surely he would be able to notice something was amiss.

Otto continued working, oblivious to Double D's predicament...
-------------------------------
As the group continued to work through the folders, a new character made her way inside.
"OH GREAT..." Mandy grumbled, eyeing the shelves, the scythe dragging behind her. How am I supposed to find anything in here?"
Growling and grumbling, she looked around hoping for any indication as to where to start. Upon seeing none, she grumbled some more "Okay, if that's the way it's gotta be, might as well summon reinforcements..."

"...erm...ahem..." Hoping to get Otto's attention, he replaced the folder in the shelf and shoved his hands in his pockets. "I, uh... I think that oddity about me you were refering to earlier has begun to catch up with me, Otto."

Otto turned from his work, giving Double D an odd look. "You say something Double D?"
SLICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The otherworldly tone of that sound effect caused Otto and Double D to jump.
------------------------------
Back with Mandy, she widened out the rift she had just created, allowing a thousand claws to pull themselves out of the underworld. Demons of every shape and size pulled themselves out, waving pitchforks, shovels, and various other instruments of torture, screeching and roaring and laughing evily...
And every last one of them stopped when they saw their was no living target before them. "WHAT?!" The lead demon shouted in a high-pitched, scratchy voice, carrying a pitchfork. "Where's the poor schuck we're supposed to raze Hell on?!"
"Their isn't one."
The demons turned to Mandy whom gave them a dangerous hellbent glare. The demons all sweatdropped and shivered at the sight. "Your new job is to look around these files for magical energy sources." She held up the scythe threateningly. "This scythe is screwing up and won't let me go back home, we need to find out what it it is," With a swing, she emphasized her point by slicing the metal blades off the pitchforks and other tools. "And DEAL with it. If any of you give me trouble, I'll give you trouble you can't even begin to imagine." She glared dangerously at the demons. "Am I understood."
The demons shivered, "Y-y-y-y-yes m-m-m-m-mistress..."
Mandy thought about that, 'Mistress'...
She liked the sound of that.

"Er...yes, I actually am starting to feel a bit ill...do you hear something?" Double D looked around anxiously. Even wqith his own problems, he couldn't help but notice the odd aura that had suddenly entered the room, and the tear in the fabric of space. "Gah! What on...!?"

Otto didn't know when the trouble began exactly. What he DID know however, was that the entire row of drawers he had just checked, was suddenly overtaken by the most demonic creatures he had ever seen. He had quickly grabbed Double D and hid around a corner so as not to be spotted by them.
One of the demons, bypassing all common courtesy, just took a folder real quickly looked over it's contents and tossed it aside. "BAH!" It said in a squeaky voice, "Why couldn't the mistress call up some Book worms to do this stupid job?! I mean, none of us here are brainiacs!"
"Tell me about it!" Said another one, whom furiously tossed aside a folder. "I was made to toture immortal souls for all eternity, not search through shelves like some common place GEEK!"
"Quit your complaining back there!!!" Came Mandy's voice. "Don't make me come back there!!!"
Both demons shuddered and immediately resumed work.
From where they hid, Otto watched the demons at work, Double D doing the same. "Where the hell did THESE things come from?"

"I-I'm not sure..." Double D breathed, making sure to keep his hands behind his back and out of Otto's view. "I felt the darkness in their auras so abruptly... they must've teleported in. It looks like they answer to the girl with the sythe."

The demons continued on with their work. “Well where ever they come from it doesn’t matter. Their screwing up the records. If we wait till their gone, finding records of Grias will be nothing short of impossible…”
BOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That caught Double D, Otto, and the demon’s attention.
“What the Hell?!?!?!?” Mandy shouted as she ran off in the direction of the explosion.
… … … … … … … …
“WALLY…” Otto growled with a passion.
--------------------------
“YEAH MATES!!! YOU LIKE THAT!?!? I don’t think you can fit your tiny tootsies in THIS size 11 shoe!!”
POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To say Wally was in an all out brawl between the demons, AND winning would’ve been true. Saying he wasn’t having the most fun in his entire life while doing so, would’ve been an outright LIE.
The boy was kicking around the vast multitudes of demons around with the greatest of ease; of course this was easy since Wally was doing a vast majority of the fight with kicks. And he was having fun doing it, using break dance like movements to either trip them up, send them flying, or both (Don’t ask how that’s possible).

"Sounds like he's got things under control," Double D sweatdropped.
"WOOOO GO WALLY!!" Ed cheered. Courage was perched on his shoulder, waving a giant foam #1 finger.

Otto, after making a quick mental note to check on Wally in a few, turned back to Double D. "Anyways you were saying? Make it fast."
-------------------
"WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON HERE?!?"
Wally and the Demons stopped right there, turning over to the end of the hall.
Mandy stood there, brandishing her scythe threateningly. "Who are you?"
Wally cringed a little under her gaze; he had felt an astonishing aura of hate coming from this girl. Mandy started to walk forward, the demons quickly parted like the Red Sea to allow her the room to walk. "What are you doing interfering with my minions work?"
Wally, steeling his courage, glared at her, "Those mates attacked ME little lady, I merely acted out in self-defense, you're the one that should be explaining things here!"

"...oh!" Double D jumped when attention swerved back to him. Still hiding his hands, he slid around Otto, backing away towards the exit. "I-I-I'm really starting to feel ill, I really should go home and rest, wouldn't want to cause an issue later on, if you could just ask Ed to meet me back at the apartment I'd really appreciate it...!"
