[Shenzi's appearance on the astral plane is typical of her at ease; in her hyena form, and with a faintly smug but mostly confident expression, she appears suddenly and in mid-stride. It's almost comical how her unease grows visibly as she freezes, then inexplicably vanishes]

And isn't this a fun surprise? What, did someone get cocky enough to kidnap me or something?

No one's tried to take it out?

There were two Gates at first. Hell's Gate in Tokyo and Heaven's Gate in South America. But something happened to the Heaven's Gate and it disappeared--along with almost the entire continent. Wiped off the face of the Earth.

And people still live in Tokyo?

[contract_star]

Hell's Gate hasn't disappeared yet, although...

[Shakes his head.] It's a big city. Many of those people don't have anywhere else to go.

Yeah, yet. Don't know about you, but if I found out my country could disappear with me on it at any second, I'd be willing to move out.

[Smiling a little.] Humans are stubborn.

Guess they never realize how stupid they were once they're dead, so it doesn't really matter.

Why's one Hell's Gate? Kind of ominous there.

[contract_star]

Heh.

It's just the names they gave to them. They both might as well be Hell. Everything and everyone who was inside when the Gates appeared were destroyed.

So why not call them 'The Twin Gates of Death'?

[contract_star]

[Just laughs.]

[noking.livejournal.com]

Seriously.
