"Umm.... what is the electric chair for????" Hikari asked, worried. In Uranus' room, an electric chair, chains and shackles, whips, and body-stretching devices stood. "Are you sure you are the Agent of Life, not torture??" Now Hikari was panicking.

"Oh do not worry. These are here for show. Here, let me get rid of them" Uranus said, and with a *snap*, the torture devices were gone. "Your real test will be at least ten times more painful ~_^" She said. The company winced. "Let us begin with description. You will be tested on your sight, smell, taste, hearing and feeling. In short, your senses. This will be one of the deciding factors of you going into the Sanctuary. Let us get started, shall we? When you are all ready, we will begin with sight. You are allowed to die once during the test, that is what the ankh is for. I will know if you are about to die for the second time, being the Agent of Life, and I will stop the task. We would not want you to actually die, now would we?Are you ready?" She asked.

"Yeah, I am" Chaos said with confidence. Hikari still looked worried...

"I guess so..." She said.

"I'm definitely ready" Zoomer said, eager. Being a resident of Tenshi Dime, he always would have wanted to be able to say, 'I passed all the Agents tasks ^_^'.

"Ok" Uranus started "This is going to be hard for you Chaos. I shall emit horribly bright light. You must see through it, and tell me the hand gesture I am doing when I look at you. Brace yourselves", She concluded. "DAI-HIKARI!" She screamed, and a colossal ray of light burst out at them. The room was engulfed in the mass of pure luminosity.

"Ah!" Hikari yelped, shielding her eyes for the sudden outbreak of light was surprising. She slowly opened them. 'I can see... Cool!' She thought.

"AHG!" Chaos screamed... 'This isn't good... I can't really see well... but i sort of can...' He thought.

"..." Zoomer was silent. 'THIS is the test of sight? Hmph, too easy.'

"Hikari!" Uranus commanded, "What am I doing?" she asked, as the light got stronger and Chaos suffered more. He was straining to keep his eyes open now... It was becoming increasingly difficult...

"A Peace sign" Hikari replied.

"Correct! ^_^. Zoomer, what now?" Uranus continued.

"Thumbs up" Zoomer said coolly.

"Perfect! CHAOS! What about now? Can you even see? You're not really a----"

"Y-your fingers a-are in t-t-the shape of a "˜V'. Right?" Chaos struggled to utter, straining under the pressure, now even screaming.

"Yes, you are right... Good job. HIKARI FIN" She finished and the light subsided, much to Chaos' pleasure. "You all did well. I am surprised, Chaos. Next is smell. A foul odor will be shot out from the walls. You must smell it for a full minute. This will not be easy. SIN!" Uranus commanded, and a horrible odor, even worse than the charred dungeon worm, crammed the room. Chaos and Zoomer stood still, bearing it, Chaos still weak from the last task. Hikari, however, wasn't really walking in a field of daisies... She fainted. "FIN!" Uranus shouted and the smog lifted. Hikari was woken up.

"I am sorry... I could not do it..." She said, ashamed.

"That is alright. Try again, SIN" Uranus said. (Sin= start, Fin= end) The gas refilled the room, and this time Hikari tried to handle it. She did fairly well until the final 10 seconds. She puked. 'OMG... I did NOT just do that' She thought 'UGH, it smells like ten-thousand zombies and a million roaches added to pure essence of skunk and radioactive farts... Plus sulfur, rotten eggs, bad BO and spoiled milk' She thought, listing off all of the most horrible smells imaginable. One could say that she overreacted, but whatever.

"Intense, huh? Now is taste. You must eat a Watapon's spleen. You might think that something so cute could not taste bad, right? WRONG. It tastes like burning sh*t. Get ready" Uranus warned as tables conjured out of no where in front of them, and three plates with one, round, steaming green thing lay on them.

"Eww..." Hikari, Chaos and Zoomer all said as their brows furrowed.

"Take a deep breath and eat up ^_^" Uranus urged. So Hikari plugged her nose and put the bite-sized thing in her mouth. 'OH MY GOD!!!! EWWW!! SICK!!! AGH!!! *gulp* EWW! THAT WAS EWW!!!' she thought.

"THAT IS THE MOST PUTRID THING I HAVE EVER TASTED! ACK!!!! I NEED WATER!" She shouted, and Uranus gave her some water, which she had ready for them. Chaos then took the thing and plopped it in his mouth and swallowed.

'... Whoa... Uck... Ack... Eww... *HACK, COUGH, SPIT* that was sick... I think I'm gonna be ill' Chaos thought. "I need water too...." He said out loud. He got his wish. Zoomer next.

'OK, I've had worse, I'm sure, so here goes' *GULP* 'Oh dear lord... That is raunchy... Water!' Zoomer thought and he grabbed desperately for water to wash out the Watapon organ.

"I have slightly carbonated the water to help get rid of it. Sick huh? I know how it feels. I had to eat twenty for my Agent Qualification Exam. It is to see if you have the strength to handle eating anything on long journeys. And that is one of the only edible parts of wild Watapon. Domestic ones seem to taste better. Anyway, next up is hearing. Loud noises are common by the Crises Fairies. These fairies include Agido, Keldo, Kelbek, Zolga, Doma, Ocubeam, and Kotodama. They make loud and shrill noises that are hard to hear and comprehend. So get ready, this might be where you die the first time. SIN!" Uranus said, and a strident and maddening noise filled every last cavern and tunnel of their ears, and it felt as if it came out of their eyes, mouth, nose and every pore on their body. It was horrible. They screamed. They fell. They twitched. They bled. And Zoomer died. So did Hikari. Fairies ears are very sensitive.

A light shined from the Ankhs in their pockets and they were reborn, but they could not hear. Chaos still was enduring it, screaming and squirming on the floor, grasping his booming ears as the 157 or more decibel noise kept going. Blood dripped freely from his ears, nose and mouth. He felt as if his head was exploding and then finally, it stopped.

"Good job, Chaos. You did it. Zoomer and Hikari, I did not expect you to, as being a fairy makes your ears very sensitive. Oh wait, they can not hear. Duh"¦ Let me heal you guys" Uranus said, and grabbed some more water and sprayed them with it, and forced them to drink it. They healed quickly; it was Mercury's water.

"As I was saying, you two are fairies. Your ears are very delicate. Regarding that factor, you did well. Nice job. Now, for the test of feeling. This will be painful. It is a fight with Theinen the Great Sphinx. Yes I know" She added as Hikari gasped, Zoomer's mouth fell a foot and Chaos flinched. "This will not be easy but it will be fast. All you have to do is last with him for 3 minutes. 3. Do that and you are guaranteed my consent. SIN!" She ended and Theinen jumped out at them.

"HAHA! IM BACK!" Theinen started, "You may have solved my past riddles, but before we begin there is another riddle you must solve. Ready?" He roared. The thing was quite intimidating, and all they could muster was a gulp and a nod. "˜The riddle must be good"¦' they all thought.

"OK, there once were 4. Then there were 3. Then 2. Then one. Then none. 4 people who all died. They each killed one other person, and only one. How did they all die?" He riddled.

"Huh? Well..."Hikari started, and she put up her fingers to represent "Lets say this one" She wagged her fingers to show "Killed this one, and this one killed this one, and.. oh wait.. No. AIEHH!!!" She got thrashed by Theinen. Badly. Uranus stood there and watched, making sure no one died. She glared at Theinen. He glared back, and then licked his bloody claws with lust. Uranus spat in his direction, and, being an angel, made sure it hit him. He stared at her for a moment, then turned back to watch the humans fidgeting.

"Hikari! Are you ok?!" Chaos asked. She nodded weakly. "Well how about one killed another, than another killed him, and then one killed himself and the last person-- OUCH! AGH!" Chaos said as he uttered the wrong answer.

"No. Each person only killed ONE other person. No suicide" Theinen boomed. Chaos and Hikari just bled. Currently, this was not a good situation.

"OK, wait I've got it! This guy killed stabbed this guy, and while dying, he stabbed his murderer. The same for the other two. Right?" Zoomer solved.

"GOOD! Now, to heal your wounds a bit" Theinen roared and made Hikari and Chaos stand, partially healed by some of Mercury's Water. "Fight me. A short, three-minute quarrel. NOW!" He boomed and started shooting beams and stomping and thrashing. They knew that an attack of 3500 with the potential of being 6500 was too strong, so they just jumped around. Chaos attempted his effect once, but just succeeded in getting kicked by Theinen's massive foot. Zoomer also tried his, but was too slow, and got blown back by his beam. Hikari jumped and flipped onto his back and stabbed him in the neck, to no avail. He threw her off, and in that certain time of danger, she erupted her wings and flew to safety. 'Whew... cool stuff' she thought.

Uranus suddenly froze and stared at Hikari's wings, now that they were in sight. "˜Huh? Most peculiar"¦. Her wings are pink, not white"¦ She must be"¦ No. Impossible! What am I thinking?'Uranus pondered. "˜I will have to ask Jupiter or Shinato later then"¦' By the look on his face, it seemed as if Zoomer was thinking the same thing that Uranus was. He stole a glance at her, but noticed that she wasn't looking in his direction. He turned back to Theinen.

Theinen swung a claw at Chaos who slashed his sword back at him, and his effect worked, partially. Theinen was now missing a whole paw... He got angry and surprised at this, and seeing as how there was only a minute and 15 sec. left, he used his effect and made his attack 6500 by giving up his tail and rear claws, making his rear paws there just to stomp. Now he was just vicious, slashing, moving, stomping, biting, and going insane. They all jumped about, stalling for time and almost quaking in fear of being pulverized by Theinen and his massiveness. Once, Zoomer had to use his wings and jump up to prevent dying. Chaos ran in again to his back. He jumped and drove his sword into the Sphinx. Theinen got frustrated and jumped up, flipped and went in to land on his back. Everyone looked at the scene and froze.

"CHAOS!! NOOO!!!" Hikari screamed as Theinen's inevitable landing came closer, until finally a thunderous boom filled the room followed by a small shock wave. There was no need to say that Chaos had died.

"No, do not worry!" Uranus reassured as she lifted Theinen off of Chaos and told him to continue "He has his Ankh still!" She was right, and Chaos' bloody body glowed and he was resurrected but still with severe injuries.

"Unh... Huh? Ah, sh*t. And just when I thought I was supposed to be going to Heaven too"¦" He shouted with disappointment, but realized the situation. "Oh. Ah, my ankh I'd take it? Okay then" He looked at the timer. There was only half a minute left, so he ran around Theinen in circles and instructed Hikari and Zoomer to do the same. "Just stall for time!"

They didn't really have another choice, so Hikari and Zoomer followed Chaos' actions, Zoomer flying instead of running. Theinen knew that time was short, and that he had to find some way to get rid of his opponents. He resorted to emitting a booming roar that he thought could paralyze them in fear. It didn't even faze them. Theinen instead attempted clawing at them, but they were moving too fast and evasively. Time eventually ran out, and Theinen was forced to stop.

"Looks like time is up Theinen, you big oaf. Now get out of here, would you? You're stinking up the place with your sphinx sweat" Uranus ordered. She turned to the fighters. "Congratulations! You have just escaped Hell. Here is my consent. This will grant you an even higher attack and defense, making Chaos a 4 star, 1800 attack, 1300 defense, Hikari a 4 star, 1650 attack, 1500 defense, and Zoomer a 7 star, 0 attack, 2900 defense" She told them as she created a ball of some sort of green gaseous substance and blew it onto them. No they didn't choke... -_-

"Now you may leave. Go now to Pluto. His task is basically a break from the hard ones, so do not worry, it should not be too difficult for you all. I must now go"¦ take care of some other things. My agenda is busy and I cannot allow you to lounge around here, so good day to you" Uranus concluded. "Feel free to take another Ankh anytime you want, but carrying two at a time will waste them when you die; they will both go off. ~_^" She finished and they were off to see Pluto, the Agent of Death. She escorted them out of the building, and waved them off. As soon as she couldn't see them anymore, she turned back into the building and went straight to her communications area.

"Jupiter" She said into a screen with many buttons. Jupiter answered on the other line.

"Good afternoon, Uranus. Do you need money again?" Jupiter asked.

"No. Why do you think I always need money?!" Uranus scolded.

"Because you do. Now what is it, beggar?"

"Hmph"¦ I have something to tell you about Hikari"

"And that would be"¦"

"Her wings are pink"

Jupiter went silent.

*~*~*~*

"That was vile, intense, putrid, intense and wicked. I'm glad we did it ^_^" Zoomer said, now happy to say he managed Uranus' task.

"Let's only hope Pluto doesn't have our deaths planned in his task..." Chaos added, thinking of the name. "If the Agent of Life's task killed us, just think of Death"¦"

"Oh I hope not... I have now died once and it is not pleasant in the least bit. Maybe Angels have it confused"¦ ", Hikari concluded, and with that they made their way to Pluto's small chambers, but were intercepted by what seemed like... A robot....

"Ha. Ha. Ha." It laughed. G-ohnay... "Remember me? Ha. Ha. Ha. Now I am back and ready to shquish you into little bitsh of nothing! Ha. Ha. Ha! Prepare to fight!" G-ohnay cackled. "By the way, my rear name ish G102Y5568, and I am not the friendry shphinksh you met in Mercury'sh mashe. I am much better than that! Ha. Ha. Ha." G finished as it challenged our heroes.

"WTF?" Zoomer said.

"It's like a random battle in an RPG" Chaos offered, readying his sword.

"Well then, in that case" Hikari said, "let us get this party started"

Zoomer put up his shield and turret and began to fire as Chaos winded around cutting at G. Hikari went over for a melee sky-punch, but G did something only a true sphinx could do. He used a blocking magic spell to freeze them all in time and blow them up into the air with a telekinetic shockwave. Onlookers came right away, but G had created an invisible shield. No one could leave, and no one could enter.

"IVE GOT YOU TRAPPED LIKE MISHE IN A.... TRAP! HA! HA! HA! YOU ARE CERTAINRY DEAD NOW!" G yelled as they got up and Zoomer fired at him, spreading it around in a circle. Chaos used a trick- he transported from yards away to right behind G and did a falling stab at his back. It succeeded only in denting the machine's plating. Hikari took the opportunity to charge up a shot and blew it straight toward G's face. It was head-on (puns...) and it blew G straight into Chaos' waiting sword.

"GRR!!! YAGH!" G did a maneuver in which he used telekinesis to push Chaos back into the barrier and flew up to the top of the dome he had created. From that point he rained down on them small shards of telekinetic energy. Zoomer's missiles finally got a static target and he fired them, each one more menacing than the next. G noticed the missles coming and did a cheap move. He opened the barrier above him, threw a bomb down, then flew out of the dome, closing it behind him and cackling wildly as he flew away.

"Sh*t" was the first word heard in the dome.
