The movie begins in cinema style as the sound of a flute is playing in the background as it shows Monworld and its realm and then there is an ancient shrine from within stood a statue of a legendary creature and old writing on the wall that talked about an ancient prophecy.
Aria's voice narrates, "It guards the skies in a sea of mist, keeping calm the winds of nature. It swims in waters of Heaven's realm and leaves soothing light in its path. This creature who, though seen by few, is known by all who live below. And if he who lives above the sea, doth leave his realm of cloud then truly all who on surface dwell, would slowly be snuffed out."
The scene shows Aria sitting on a lone hillside as she shut a large book that she was reading from.
"This is the legend for the passing of the Sea of Clouds. It's more commonly referred to as The Sea in the Sky. It's a weeklong event that happens every year during the fall of Mon World. The skies are darkened due to the clouds blocking out the sun, so it always looks like it's going to rain. But the best thing is the array of lights that ripple across the underside of the cloud cover. It's one of my favorite times of the year. But…I've always wondered something does this beast who lives in this sea of clouds actually exist? No one really knows, as no one has seen it in over 300 years. Personally, I think he does. But there are plenty of others who would love to prove me wrong."
Ryoki lifts her head and meows a sort of chirping noise. Aria smiles. "Well, maybe one day I'll go up there myself and see. Who knows, maybe this year will be different?"
The scene fades out and then opens up in Kaze, Noah and Ruby's house. Ruby is in an excited mood.
Ruby says, "This is one of the BEST times of the year! I've been waiting for this for-EVER!"
Kaze says, "Hhaahah! ME too! This is gonna be sweet!" He is packing a lot of stuff in his backpack. "Fall Vacation!"
Noah says, "It'll be nice to take a break from both school and fighting demons." He is packing a few things in his backpack even some books. "And everyone is planning to go to Monworld for vacation."
Kaze says, "I know! And whats even better is were going to thee most coolest place in Monworld!"
Noah says, "A place known for its ancient legends."
Kaze says, And for its finest foods!
Noah says, And beautiful scenaries.
Ruby says, "I wasn't talking about that, I was talking about the annual event that takes place this week the passing of the Sea in the Sky. It's one of my favorite events in the whole of Mon World. And even if fall vacation hadn't come, I'd 've skipped out on school anyway to spend the whole week in Mon World to watch it."
Kaze says, "And we get to see it in Aero City on the floating continent of Skyria that rests between the Earth Realm and Wind Realm! Its gonna be the bomb! OooH! I can't wait to see it! I heard stories of such a place, but never in my life did I imagine that I'm gonna see it!"
Noah says, "This is the first time we've been there Kaze. Though it will be exciting to see this event.
It shows at DIamond's house she was in her room brushing her long hair (during the series her hair has gotten longer) as she placed it in a ponytail holder(like the kind Eccentro wears) which was blue as Blossom held it with her paws until Diamond got it in."
DIamond says, "Okay, you can let go Blossom."
Blossom says, "Let's go, Roarr!"
Diamond looks in the mirror and smiles. "There. Perfect, you know since my hair got so long I didn't schedule to get it cut, but thats alright. Besides at least I get to wear this ponytail holder. Just wait til Eccentro sees it." Her eyes are sparkling. "Ah and the best thing of all we'll be going to Aero City of Skyria. I heard from Noah its supposed to have the best view of the great event taking place."
It shows behind her her backpack full of supplies, clothes and other things she's bringing on the trip.
Diamond says, "What could be more perfect..." She is blushing a bit.
Blossom says, "Roarr.."
At Ryuji's house Pero is sitting on Ryuji's clothes in his backpack as Ryuji is fixing his hair.
Ryuji says, " Yep. Looking good, Ryuji. Hahah, this is great Pero a vacation in a cool place and a cool event is gonna take place. I can't wait to see it."
Pero says, "Perrr..."
Ryuji says, "Yeah I know its gonna rock." He walks over and pets him.
~o~O~o~
Meanwhile at the castle
Emerald zips up her backpack. "There, all my needed supplies. Extra clothes, medicine, herbs, some water, and other necessities."
"Meow..."Mia is resting on Emerald's shoulder.
Emerald giggles as she pets Mia.
~o~O~o~
Meanwhile in the castle in Eccentro's room Eccentro was packing who was also quite excited about this event and vacation.
Eccentro was whistling as he stuffed things into his duffle bag.
Eccentro says, "Oh this is going to be great! No Tanaka, no training, no fighting…we're just going to relax and take in the views for an entire week. What could be better than that?"
Batch says, "Not being late could be one." Eccentro turns to look behind him. There he sees Batch and Gluko standing in the doorway with their packs slung over their shoulders.
Eccentro says, "Late?"
Gluko says, "We're supposed to be meeting the others in about 10 minutes."
Eccentro says, "We are?"
Batch says, "Yeah, so quit packing your entire room and hurry up."
She and Gluko walk away.
~o~O~o~
Meanwhile with Mondo and Rockna
Rockna says, "Come in here and make sure I got everything packed for you Mondo!"
Mondo says, "Coming!" he enters the room and looks through the backpack. "Looks like it."
Rockna says, "Alright then! Looks like we can head out and pick up the others."
Mondo says, "Right."
Back over at the castle Diamond and Meryl were arriving.
Meryl says, "You know, Diamond I really like your new hair style."
Diamond says, "Thanks Meryl. Say where's your backpack with your stuff?"
Meryl says, "Ohh all in here." She holds up hatchel. "My hatchel is magic so it can hold a lot of things without getting heavy."
DIamond says, " How do you know what to pull out?"
Meryl says, "I know by just thinking of it."
Diamond has a sweatdrop.
Vyers says, "Bonjour Madamoiselles!" He is waving with his duffle bag.
Meryl says, Hello Vyers-KUn!" She is waving.
Kaju says, "Hey you guys right on time. Ooh...Diamond did you do something with your hair the end part looks like it was put in a weird bundle like his highness does?"
Diamond says, " It's a new style though its something different from any other ponytail scrunchies and besides it is kinda cool too."
Batch opens the door. "Ah you're here." She turns to Diamond. "Who are you trying to impress with your hair Diamond?"
Diamond Huh? away with a sly look on her face and anime beady eyes What makes you say that Batch?
Batch says, "Don't play coy." she sighs "Whatever. We're nearly ready to take off."
Diamond says, "Alright braid-head."
Meryl says, "Actually, Batch, Diamond's gonna impress Eccentro with her new hair style."
"Meryl!" Diamond is blushing, a bit embarassed.
Batch says, "Why am I not surprised?..." She walk into the castle, leaving the door open for the others so they could come in.
Kaju is trying to push down stuff in his backpack "Commeee on, get in there."
Diamond says, "Hey Kaju. Need a hand there?"
Kaju says, "Oh no I almost got it...just pushing in one more of my gadgets to bring. He pushes in the backpack and then zips it up. His backpack was quite big.
Meryl says, "Kaju, we're only going for a week not a whole month."
Kaju says, "I know, I just wanted to bring everything that would be important for on our trip."
Batch asks, "Like…?"
Kaju says, "Well, many useful gadgets like the Life hook which is a grappling hook that locks hold tightly with rope extending from it and some other things. I mean who knows when it'll come in handy?"
Meryl has a weatdrop.
Diamond has a sweatdrop.
Kaze says, "Hey anybody inside with Ruby and Noah.
Diamond says, "Yeah of course we're here."
Kaze says, "Woah, hey Diamond, you did something to your hair. It's bundled up in that holder."
Diamond says, "It's a new look besides its much better than going with the pigtail look."
Noah says, "You know back home in the Water Realm some girls put their hair in a fin style to make it look like their hair has a fin."
Ruby says, "I don't know…the pigtails might suit her…"
Diamond says, "Yeah I was thinking that, but then again I could have gone with the Ranma look that was my second option."
Ryuji is walking in with Pero on his head. "A Ranma look with the pigtails? That would be something though with that hair style I say in a way it's cute."
Batch says, "So you're not going with Mondo and Rockna Ryuji?"
Ryuji says, "Oh I am. I just gotta stop here because I left my deck in the guest room. It'll only take a .. " He goes up the stairs.
Kaze says, "Well hurry Ryuji. Because we gotta get a moving. I Totally can't wait to seee AERO City!" His eyes are sparkling.
Batch says, "Actually, I'm kinda surprised that you've never been there Kaze."
Gluko says, "Since you're the Guardian of Wind and all."
Ruby says, "Yeah, shouldn't you know a little more about the realm you protect? Or were you just hoping that Aria would tell you about it?"
Kaze says, "Well, I never been to Aero City before because I had been living in the village all my life and never got out of it to explore, but I DID hear stories about places especially Aero City."
Kaju says, "I heard also that its one of the cities that uses wind power to power things especially make wind-type devices and vehicles to get around even using wind-type monsters too."
Kaze says, "Wow thats something."
Kaju says, "Yeah I heard it in an old book Noah lended me."
Noah nods. "I found that book when I visited a Wind Realm Kingdom."
Ruby says,"Enough jabber! We've got to get going or we'll miss the formation of the Sea of Clouds!"
Diamond says, "Yeah lets get a moving."
Meryl says, "Hey Ryuji you can hitch a ride with us!"
Ryuji says, "That's cool!"
Noah has a sweatdrop and sighs.
~o~O~o~
SOon the scene changes to Monworld as it shows the two symbols appear as the Utopian Eagle and the Flying Lion enter the Wind Realm.
Mondo says via transmission, "You know Ryuji, next time you decide to ditch us you should let us know a little sooner."
Ryuji has a sweatdrop. "Sorry guys and for your opinion, I didn't ditch I just forgot my deck at Prince's place."
Noah says,"You should be more careful with your deck Ryuji. If it was stolen then that would have been another story."
Ryuji says, "Who asked you Fish boy?"
Noah has s small anime vein on his head. "Fish boy? Ahem...I'll let that one slide, but next time I'll put you on ice."
Ruby says, "We haven't even gotten to Aero City yet and they're already getting on each other's nerves…"
Rockna is chuckling "It doesn't really matter. Aero City should be coming into view in about a minute. Once we arrive, everything will be…a little less tense."
Ruby says, "And we'll have to hurry and unpack. I want a good view for the starting of the event."
Batch says, "You seem a little obsessed with this…"
Ruby says, "It's my favorite event of the year…and it brings back some good memories."
Diamond thinks "I know it'll create some good memories too." She looks at Eccentro and hides a blush.
Emerald says, "I can't wait to see the event. I bet its gonna be magnificent."
Mondo says, "Well we'll be able to watch it in full once we get there. Speaking of which…"
In the horizon the city comes into view. There is one major floating island connected to several other smaller ones by bridges of land and steel. Adorning the island are trees, waterfalls and beautiful buildings of marble, silver and crystal. Windmills are placed all around the land and the blades spun with the passing wind. The whole place seems to shimmer. In the very center of the largest island stood a tall, glistening tower.
Rockna says, "The place we want is where that tower is. Aero City surrounds it."
Emerald Wowww...
Kaze whistles. "Man...just like the stories I heard of it."
Meryl takes out a video camera and starts recording. "And here we are Skyria home of Aero City the one with the tower in which the event is going to take place."
Ruby says, "Actually, it's just the place with the best view to see the event. We could watch it from anywhere in Mon World, but it's better to be as close as possible."
Batch says, "You guys better hold on, we're going in for a landing."
The ships descend and the scene cuts to show them as they exit and begin walking around the glittering streets of Aero City. There were many people about, some going about their daily business, others selling trinkets pertaining to the Sea in the Sky event, others just hanging out.
A candy Vendor calls, "Cloud Cotton Candy! Get your CLoud Cotton Candy here! The lightest and fluffiest cotton candy here in Aero City!"
A ride vendor calls, "Take a ride on the Wind-Cycle and get a magnificent view of the event!"
A trinket vendor calls, "Nifty Pinwheels for your houses. We got some great Breeze Bikes! A good way to get around the city!"
Batch says, "Wow…I never expected it to be so much like a…carnival…"
Eccentro says, "Where are we supposed to be going?"
Ruby says, "Ah, the hotel is this way." Ruby begins to walk towards the large silver tower in the middle of the city.
Rockna says, "So, we're actually staying in the center-point of the city?"
Ruby says, "Yeah, you have no idea how much effort it took to get a room in here. I had to book us rooms months in advance and it was expensive. You guys owe me big time."
Kaze says, "Gee, like money wise or another thing. I mean you know there is always a catch at the end of what Ruby does is "nice".
Soon Kaze is smacked by Ruby's tail. "Ow!"
Emerald says, " Look at all the flying vehicles Bikes, paddle boats...it's interesting."
Noah says, "They use wind-power here to even fuel electricity using specialized machinery built from the finest silver and metals. As well as using the wind to create vehicles such as those. I even heard that there are Air Ships that are being developed and so far a few have been made."
Ryuji says, "Thats cool.."
Kaju says, "AMaazing..." He is looking around. "This is my kind of place. TO develop such inventions as those its-incredible!"
Ruby says, "If you want Kaju, I can show you around. I know the best places to see Aero City's technology in action."
Kaju says, "Really?" His eyes lighten up. "I-I would be honored." He smiles. "Thanks Ruby."
Noah says, "Perhaps when we get settled at the hotel we can look around. I'm planning to go check out the old shrine up on the hilltop outside of Aero City. Its the reason why this event is legendary because of an old ancient legend."
Diamond asks, "An ancient legend?"
Noah says, " Yes of a great creature that lives in the Sea of Clouds."
Kaze says, "I never heard of a legend like that."
Diamond says, "You know we can rent some of the Breeze Bikes and take a float over there."
Mondo says, "Sounds like a plan to me!"
Rockna says, "I'm game." the others all agree.
Ruby says, "Well then let's get going to the hotel and check in. We can head over after that. Plus it won't be that long until the commencement takes place. The shrine is supposed to be another good spot to watch from."
Vyers says, "Another perfect place to see the event."
Kaze says, "Then what are we waiting for! LETS GO!" He soon rushes off.
DIamond calls, "Wait for us, Kaze!"
As they ran off in the shadows hid a figure of a man who had a smirk on his face. The scene changes to the hotel and as they check in it shows the rooms.
Ryuji says, "Woahh! Check out our rooms! Is this a room or a royal suite!"
Kaze says, "Yeah its so fancy!"
Meryl is bouncing on her bed. "Guys! The beds are so soft as a cloud you can bounce on them."
Pero, Impy, Blossom and Mia are jumping on Kaze's bed.
Ruby says, "What did you guys expect? I only go for the most royal of rooms."
Rockna says, "And we are very grateful for that." Batch rolls in her suitcase.
Ruby says, "Girl's side is over there." She points to the right side of the room.
Batch says, "Any room in general I should be setting stuff in?"
Ruby says, "Well, the way I planned it you, Gluko and Meryl would be in the third room, Diamond, Emerald and Rockna would be in the second, and Aria and I would be in the first."
Kaze says, " I guess that leaves us guys to split rooms."
Ryuji says, "The old fashioned separation of girls and guys."
Noah says, "I say its a good system."
DIamond places her backpack on her bed.
Emerald is looking at the window. "Woww." She look at the view. "It's beautiful..."
Ruby says, "That's why I had to get rooms here, the view is perfect…not to mention completely visible from MY room…"
Batch says, "You grabbed the one with the best window view didn't you?"
Ruby says, "Of course, I had to pay for the place, so I get the best view. But you all have windows too, so you can't be that crabby about it."
"Err.."Kaze has an anime vein a bit. "Why thank you very much "YOUR Lioness."
Kaze is smacked on the face by Ruby's tail. "Ow! Again with the tail."
Diamond says, "Anyway how about we go over and check out that shrine?"
Noah says, "Sounds good to me."
Kaze says, "And then when we get back we can grab some chow before the event takes place.
Ruby says, "There might not be time for that, the event starts soon. So you might just want to take something with you or grab something on the way over."
Rockna says, "Well then, we should be off so that we are not caught mid journey when it begins."
Mondo says, "Agreed."
The scene changes at the gang are riding on Breeze Bikes towards the shrine. Ruby was in the lead as she knew where it was. Kaze was on his bike chowing down on some cotton candy.
Rockna says, "Do you know how much farther it is Ruby?"
Ruby says, "Not long now. And we'll have plenty of time to get situated for the sight."
The scene shows the group as they ride off over the hills. It switches as they pull up by a cliff side that had a rocky path leading down its center. The outcropping was surrounded by a water on all sides and a waterfall fell behind it. The shrine was at the end, overlooking the waterfall's edge. The entrance to the shrine was built into a hill that rose up.
"There it is. We can sit on top of the shrine's hill and watch from there."
Batch says, "Looks like someone already beat us to it." they all look at who was sitting atop the hill already. Turned out it was Aria and Ryoki. As the group approached, Aria's ears perked up and she turned to them with a friendly wave.
Aria says, "I was wondering when you were going to show up, Ruby. I saved our place."
Ruby says, "I was worried you weren't going to show up at all. I got us a room in the Silver Tower. It has the best view."
Aria says, " Perfect."
