The Spring of Life…. The Hero of Light will protect us all. We pray that the hero may return… Give us another chance.

Six months had past since the floating island and the Mimingas were saved.

Quote, Curly and Balrog were sleeping in a field with flowers and a lake near by. Behind them was a forest. Quote was sleeping soundly, until…

BUUUZZZZZZIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTT!

'Why? WhAT Have I done TO Desrve This?' was the transmission Quote received with his antennae. He could barely see an eight-year-old girl crying in a corner. The picture was fuzzy.

Quote got up. The last time this happened was when he woke up in the cave. The strange electric surge that the SOS from Zazuma to Sue helped him reboot himself.

He looked around. No one in sight.

BBBBBBUUUUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZZZZIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTT!…

Another transmission.

'SIster of mine, may the Hero of Light come back,' said a boy who was comforting the girl. He was a little taller but they seemed to be the same age.

Quote shook his head frantically. He looked into the forest. Something wasn't right here. He walked into the woods not telling Curly or Balrog. He continued to walk inside the forest. Then he came across something strange. In the middle of an open field, nothing was there except a thick, old tree stump.

Quote walked up to it, and he looked down into the stump. It looked like a bottomless pit.

BBBBBBBBBBBBUUUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTT!

Quote got another transmission, and the sound was a little more clear. However, the only thing he could see was a shadowy figure with glowing red eyes and markings.

'You can't escape my power little ones…. your friend is dead…. so is your light,' a dark voice said.

Quote looked down again… He got a strange felling about the hole inside the stump. He felt that he been down there before. Another strange feeling washed over him. He looked down to see his chest glowing a bright light-blue color. It lit up the entire forest.

"Wh-what?" Quote said in confusion.

"Don't be afraid… I'll help you in anyway I can… We are, after all, soul linked," said a strange voice that sounded a lot like Quote.

The mentioned robot calmed down… Even though there was no one around and a voice that came from nowhere sounded like his own, something told Quote that he shouldn't be afraid.

The light that came from Quote's chest died down.

He just stood there for a while looking down into the hole….

SHOVE!

Someone pushed Quote.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" the recon (or scout) robot yelled as he fell down the hole.

Quote closed his eyes tightly… He kept falling, falling and falling into nothingness.

"Don't be afraid, Quote…. Let your heart be your guide… I'll fight by your side….," the voice said.

Quote slowly began to open his eyes as the warm sunlight touched him.

He felt something really soft beneath him. He was also not hurt at all, even after that fall.

He got up and looked around. He saw very thick, bushy, soft moss beneath him.

He looked around. He was in a place that looked like a cave made entirely out of wood, vines, moss, and huge leaves, but there were a few rocks scattered about. The sunlight came out of a small hole about the size of Quote's hand. A part of Quote wondered where he fell from. He saw another hole leading to a different area.

This new area was a lot like the last cavern Quote was in; except that it was a lot bigger and had lots of colorful flowers unlike the ones on the floating island. Sunshine came though the tiny cracks and huge purple flowers bloomed underneath the cracks.

"Rawr!"

Quote turned around to see some kind of lizard behind him. It had a yellow tummy and a turquoise top. It also had no arms or legs. It reminded Quote of a critter back on the island. It leaped at Quote. He dodged it though.

The robot then encountered strange black birds that acted like bats. Quote then came across a strange house that was made of flowers and the door was a big leaf. The walls of the house were made of an orange flower while the roof was made out of pink flowers. Painted with light blue paint on the big leaf door was a diamond.

Quote walked up to it trying to find some friendly life. He knocked on the door. A girl that looked a little like him opened the door. She had messy black hair running down her back, her eyes were a light blue, and she wore a soft, kind smile. She wore a shaggy blue oversized shirt, long tan pants, and a little pink flower behind her left ear. Her bare feet were somewhat clean. She was also a little taller than Quote; not too much though.

She looked at Quote in surprise but soon shook it off.

"Hello, traveler, are you lost?" she asked Quote.

"Yes…" Quote said.

"Come on in and make yourself at home, then!" the girl said happily.

Quote and the girl sat down on a couch made of moss. She offered milk and cookies, but Quote declined. She sat down on a chair on the other side of the table and tried to start up an conversation.

"So, what's your name?" she asked.

"Quote. I am a recon robot, but I am different than the others…" he started, but the girl gave another surprised look.

"Sorry. My name is Jewel," the girl said. "I live here in the Blossom Cavern of the Eternal Forest. This place was around even before the Dinosaurs; maybe even longer than that… That's why it's called the Eternal Forest. It became a labyrinth over time."

"Wow…" Quote said.

"Yea. The place is filled with all sorts of things. The main spaces in this cave belong to the lizard-like Rawrs, (lizard-like but they are warm blooded) and the violent crows that come in many colors. Then there are the peaceful Flemins; they're kinda like Mimigias but different," Jewel said.

"Ok."

"So tell me about the floating island."

"Well it has been doing good… I left as soon as I destroyed the Demon Crown," Quote started. "Well, can you help me get back to my friends?"

"I'll do what I can," Jewel said as she walked into a different room. She came back with a small weapon in her hand and then she gave it to Quote.

"Thanks, Jewel! I'll come back and visit sometime!" Quote said as he went out the door.

Just a little after Quote left, Jewel walked back to the room where she got the Heart Pistol. She picked up a small picture inside a nice wooden frame on the table. She looked at it as tears started forming in her eyes.

"Brother of mine…. Your dream is still alive….."
