Summary: Dante's got two sisters. One hates his guts, and one is a little happy-go-lucky. What will the Huntik Foundation do when their youngest (and nearly the best) gets kidnapped?

I am doing the best I can with the spells (Brisinger is one of my own creation.). If you think the spelling is wrong, please review; tell me what paragraph and line it is in and the correct spelling. Thanks!

Dante's POV

I watched Allegro follow her friends out of the cave. Sophie looked at me, and nervously turned away. I got up, rubbing my wrist. I looked around, "Allegro's team was right. It's too unstable to go back down there. We'll have to think of something else." I shook my head, "I can't believe she's that snippy." I muttered to myself, "I thought her mentor taught her to be nice, especially to her elders." I stood up, still rubbing my wrist.

Lok looked at me, "So she hates you?"

"Apparently." I shook my head, "She's never tried to break my wrist before."

"She was pretty nice, you know, saving me."

"Yes, Lok, she was nice for saving you, but it was probably to make me look bad." I took a deep breath and mentally blocked out the pain of her attack.

Sophie looked at me and turned away. I looked over at Zhalia who was looking out over the water, as if she was thinking of a plan.

"I don't want to go down there again." Lok said. I smiled.

"We won't. We'll bring the ship up to us." I smiled at Zhalia. She looked at Sophie and shook her head.

"How about we do that tomorrow?" She suggested.

"Yeah, that's what I was thinking." I stretched, "Let's com back in the morning." Lok, Sophie, Cherit, and Zhalia followed me.

11 hours later

"Cherit stay up here and warn us of danger, please?"

"Sure thing, Dante." Cherit flew up a little higher, "Uh, Dante?"

"What Cherit?"

"Part of your sister's team is over there without her." Cherit pointed at some stalagmites.

"Great. How many do you see?"

"Only two, Dante."

"Which means the other two are below the water. Sophie, Zhalia, see if you two can help them at all."

"Okay." Both females walked out to the water, disappearing under the surface. Lok and I started securing ropes to the stalagmites. I worked my way over to where Cherit had motioned the other team was hiding. I listened to their conversation.

"Allegro and I have something going on between us, Cassie, admit it. You knew." A boy, oblivious to the fact that there were walkie-talkies between them, was whispering.

"You do not, Roth. It's so her and Keith." The girl, Cassie, I think, laughed.

"She hates Keith! Why would she be in love with him?" Roth folded his hands over his chest and gave Cassie a haughty look.

"Why would she choose to go underwater with him?" Cassie argued back.

"Because she wants you to think that there's nothing between the two of us." Roth turned his back on Cassie, huffing.

"Between you and me or between you and her?" Cassie looked at him, appalled.

"Between me and her! You're just jealous because you have the hots for Keith."

"I do not! I'm crushing on you!" Cassie shouted, then, realizing what she had said, she clamped her hands over her mouth tight.

"What?" Roth turned around, his turn to look appalled.

"Nothing!" Cassie turned a bright shade of pink.

"Uhm, hello." I said, standing up.

"Who are you?" Roth stood up, putting Cassie behind him

"A friend of the Foundation."

"A friend of the Organization would say the same thing." Roth tensed, "I repeat, who are you?"

"My name is Dante Vale. I'm Allegra Vale's brother."

"Oh yeah! I remember you!" Cassie stood up, pushed Roth out of the way and held her hand out to me, "We never had a chance to introduce ourselves properly yesterday. I'm Cassie McDen. This young man is Roth Senshen."

"Hello Miss McDen and Mister Senshen." I shook their hands, "Would you mind a team-up?"

"Well, Allegro told us not to-" Cassie looked suddenly wary.

"We'll be happy to!" Roth elbowed Cassie as he stepped in front of her. I heard splashing and saw a titan streak out of the water, "There's Allegro's Wolf Knight." Roth held his hand up for a rope that the titan dropped in his hand.

"Okay. Hey, there's Keith's Fireblade." Cassie grabbed two ropes, "Call your titan, Roth." She pulled on the ropes.

"I'll go down and help push." I ran down to the water. I dove in and kicked down to the ship. Zhalia and Sophie moved so I could push with them. We managed to lift the sip a few inches. I worked my hands down under it and lifted. I noticed a titan and a girl under the ship on the other end. I heard some muffled curses and kicked hard while saying, "Hyperstride!"

"Ugggnh!" Allegro pushed upwards, her hands suddenly looking like huge paws. I blinked and found the ship was getting higher. I could now stand up and push off the ground, coaxing the ship higher.

I glanced over at Allegro again, this time positive her hands weren't hands anymore, but paws. She seemed to be exerting very little stress, and was almost pushing the ship by herself. The titan moved toward me, taking one entire end on its back. I realized I was out of breath. I kicked to the surface, breaking through and gasping. I swam to the rocky shore and shook the water from my hair.

I walked behind some rocks and quickly changed out of my wet-suit. I came back out from around the stalagmites and watched in amazement as the ship popped above the water. Allegro followed, shaking water from her hair with an almost dog-like motion.

"Is it stable?" She asked the titan who'd been helping her. I watched it nod exuberantly as Allegro tested the side, "Touch ram!" She blasted a hole in the spot she was touching. A jet of water blasted her in the face, "Pthew." She spat a mouthful of water out.

She looked so ridiculous I had to laugh. She glared at me so coldly it made me laugh even more. She straightened her hair and cupped some water in her hand, "Get over here, stupid head." She jogged toward me and suddenly stopped. Her hair stood up on end in two places.

"What's wrong, Allegro?" Keith stepped over to her.

"Enemies. Close. Can't smell them. They're too loud to be-Look out!" She leapt at Lok, knocking him out of the way of a torrent of acid came cascading down from the rocks above the ship. I watched in horror as they flew behind a bunch of stalagmites. Allegro stood up, her hands looking like paws again. This time, since we were above water, I could see they were actual paws, complete with fur, claws, and pads.

"What are you?"

"Come meet your doom, DeFoe!" She shouted, jumping over the mounds of rock. Lok looked at me, then at her, his gaze one of horror. I watched Zhalia and Sophie look at her, while her companions poured some kind of liquid form a thermos like this kind of thing was normal.

Well, working with her means this has to be normal for them. My mind replied to an unasked question, I guess, you'll just have to get used to seeing this kind of thing too. Seeing as Guttenheim wants you to follow her on her missions from now on. DeFoe's titan, Kreutalk, drooled as it surveyed the new seekers it found. Cassie looked at it and sighed, setting her cup down.

"Brisinger." She said lazily, as a ball of amethyst fire erupted from her hand.

"DeFoe, your pet is dying. Better call it back." Allegro hit it with another ball of flame, this one claret, and shouted, "Hurry up." Another wine-colored ball of flame from Allegro exploded on a ledge where Grier and DeFoe were standing. A bunch of Suits rushed at me.

"Hyperstride!" I shouted, jumping up and flipping in mid-air. Allegro swatted some away with one sweep of her paw. I slammed my fist across one's face and ducked a blow from two others. They hit each other, knocking each other out.

"Auger frost!" A Suit shouted, trying to blast Zhalia back into the water. She kicked his feet out from under him, knocking him flat on the ground. I watched as Sophie and Lok fought side by side.

"Brisinger!" A cerulean fire ball from Roth hit Breaker square in the chest.

"Brisinger!" An emerald flame whizzed over my shoulder. I turned to see Keith with his hand held up. I gave him a thumbs up and kicked three pairs of legs out from under three Suits. I looked around for Allegro and saw her running after Grier and Breaker, her titan, Neptunia, right on their heels.

"Get back here!" She screamed. I followed, pulling Caliban from my pocket.

"Caliban!" I shouted, calling him out.

"Sabriel!" Sophie cried, following me.

"No Sophie! Go back and help Lok!"

"But,"
"No! Help Lok!"

"A-all right." She turned back, "Sabriel! Help Lok!" She turned, looking back over her shoulder, "Dante! Allegro's gone!" She said. I looked at where Grier was and didn't see Allegro.

"Brisinger!" I heard Allegro whisper. A ruby ball of flame hit Grier in the face.

"Grah!" He shouted, trying to bat the flame away. Allegro laughed and dropped to the ground.

"Keith! Search the ship! Find the box." She turned from Grier who had called back his titan and was now running down the cave, six suits following. The rest of the suits climbed ropes, two dragging DeFoe. I smiled as I saw them fleeing. Something large, black, and square landed at my feet.

"Here." Roth and Cassie looked at Keith as he dropped the box, "You deserve it more than we do. I mean, you only have twenty-seven complete and successful missions."

"What the hell do you think you are you doing?!" Allegro came out from behind the rocks I had changed behind.

"I'm letting them-"

"NO!" She wailed, "We're too close to my father's record to stop now!"

"Allegro, please, hear me out on this."

"Fine. You have ninety seconds to explain. Starting, now."

"If I give him this, he'll be at the same level as us. After this, we can make sure to stay above his team's level for the rest of the year."

"No." Her answer was flat, straight, spooky almost.

"But-"

"Absolutely not. Take the box and get your butts to the boat. Now."

"Yes ma'am."

"Go!" The rest of her team scrambled to get out of the cave, "Now, Andante." Allegro turned, her hands turning into paws, "I want you to leave me and my comrades alone, from now on. Got it?" She held her fist-paw up and shook it slightly, "Well?"

"Okay." I touched the paw, "What is this thing?"

"None of your business!" She snapped, and stormed out of the cave, her hands returning to normal. I stared after her, amazed that she would say such a thing to her older brother. She reached the cave entrance and I heard a boat start up and die almost immediately. I looked at Zhalia, who shook her head. I started heading out to the boat we had brought.
