To further appease the dogma of his cult, Baku built a hidden crypt under the city during Seiko's reign. It is much like Orochimaru's compound, but more macabre and only one large circular level. Over the entire floor there is a large crimson-red marking of Jashin, painted from the blood of Baku's victims. There are chains hanging from the ceiling, attached to the chains are large hooks with bits of flesh and blood speckling them. Candles light up every inch of the place, all red simply because Baku adores the color. A few bodies hang from a few of the hooks as well, noting some of Baku's recent victims. There is a myriad of pikes, both wooden and steel, that Baku uses in his rituals. There is a book in the center of the Jashin mark, standing on a black and Gothic pedestal wrapped in flesh. There is a human eye where the lock is, and what looks to be a blackened recess in which his Jashin pendant fits inside perfectly. No one but he and Doku Ni-Doru know what the book contains, but not even Doku dare speaks of what it contains. Countless bodies decorate the inside wall of the crypt, each pinned together with steel nails, making a quilt of gore and human defilement. There is a single machine in the back hooked up with wires, vials of various bubbling liquids, and monitors with various readouts. There is a single keyboard attached to it. Inside the main chamber of the machine in a green liquid, there seems to be something growing inside of it. Some small and almost human-like mass of flesh. The archway which connects the single door that is flat on the ground of the city and the hallway to the chamber is filled with different seal ofuda and obvious exploding tags.

Baku arrived at his destination, sensing Suzuya would be in tow. He stared down at the metallic doors on the city floor, his eyes focused on the ofuda that served as the lock.

Suzuya approached Baku from behind, folding his hands behind his back and watching quietly after his last comment, surprised he hadn't replied.

"Beautiful one, hmm?" He stated more to himself, but could be perceived as a question to Suzuya. He pricked his index finger on the sharp point of Water Shed's hilt, and let the blood drip down onto the ofuda, letting it burn until the doors unlatched. He bent down and pulled one door open with a loud creaking sound. The odor of formaldehyde and blood escaped as Baku began his descent into the crypt.

Suzuya pondered his response before replying, "Of course, Baku-san. You haven't been told it before?" Suzuya chuckled. "I'm certainly surprised."

"Not from another male, no." He passed over the walkway, seeming to step on certain stones and not others. At the moment he reached under the archway, he skipped over the line that was present and into the crypt itself.

"Does it bother you?" Suzuya noticed the footing and followed carefully.

"Not particularly. I am not one to encourage nor shy away flattery. If one wishes to admire my splendor, then they may do so." He walked over to the computer console and looked at the many readouts before carefully typing something in, letting a purple liquid filter in from a boiling flask, through a helix-shaped tube, and into the container containing the mass of flesh.

Suzuya shook his head. "Then I will call you 'Beautiful'." He replied, watching the other man's process. "And may I ask what Beautiful is doing?"

"Cultivating a child." He replied simply as a small needle came from a tube connected to the contained via a long cylindrical tube. What looked to be and could very well be blood was inserted into the mass, and it seemed to pulsate with movement. "Why do you wish to know, exactly? And why would you wish to follow me?"

"I thought you would have figured out why I followed you, and I ask because I have never seen something like that." Suzuya was fixated on the child, and didn't tear his gaze away.

"Is it because you have some sort of infatuation with my being?" He asked while continually watching the mass of flesh for any other changes. It started to sprout arms and hands and fingers, as well as other appendages. The growth hormones and fluids were now taking effect, rapidly.

"Then it would seem we have a homosexual amongst us, and he has set his eyes upon the Demon Behind the Waterfall. Why is this?" He looked back over to Suzuya, his trademark piercing gaze reflecting at him.

Suzuya raised an eyebrow. "Because even demons can be loved. There are countless old tales of loved demons." he replied simply. "And when the demon is beautiful, he is...hard to resist."
