After a few hours of searching, everyone had decided to give up on their search for Valon. "Did you guys find anything?" asked Ashley. "We didn't." said Judai. Suddenly, Danek's ears perked up. "Danek? Do you hear something?" asked Slim. "Yes, I do." said Danek. "Well, what was it?" asked Dimitri. "A leopard's roar. He's coming our way. And Valon's with him." said Danek. "Well, let's go." said Jaden. Everyone went in the direction Danek was leading them. Then, Danek stopped. There, on the other side of the road, was Sabor and Valon in his armor. "Valon! We're so glad you're okay. We were all worried about you." said Jim. "Wait a minute. I know this leopard." said Ashley as she stared at Sabor. "What are you talking about?" asked Dimitri. "This is Stacie's pet leopard." said Ashley. "She keeps a leopard as a pet?" asked Dimitri. "Yes." said Ashley. "Well, we're here to save Valon, aren't we? Well, let's go save him." said Haou. Everyone went up to Sabor and Valon's location. "Not so fast." said Valon. Everyone stopped. "Sabor, stop them." said Valon. Sabor roared and tried to scratch the group, but failed. "I think I get what Stacie's trying to do. She captured Valon last night. She knew that we were going at that date. She must've kidnapped Valon out of jealousy." said Ashley. "I think I don't get it." said Timothy. "She's using Valon and her animals to capture Dimitri and have him all to herself." said Ashley. "Something's totally off with that woman." said Dimitri. Suddenly, Valon ran forward and punched Dimitri in the face. Valon then grabbed Dimitri by the throat. "Valon, it's me. Dimitri Marshall. One of your friends, remember?" asked Dimitri. Suddenly, for only a few seconds, Valon came back to reality. "Dimitri?" asked Valon. "Valon! You have to go with the plan. You don't want me to get angry, don't you?" asked Stacie's voice in Valon's ear. "I'm sorry, mate. But I have to do this." said Valon. And with that, Valon, Sabor, and Dimitri disappeared before Ashley could catch them. "They took him. My fiance." said Ashley.
