Nicholas had told Lucas and Sarah before hand to tell all the friends that he, Cody, and Ben had left behind that they would met up with them latter. He figured by now that they had heard that the three were back. But he wanted those friends to be surprised.

On Friday, the team met up at Nicholas's house to see these friends at around noon. The team had trained that morning, but Nicholas decided to not make this day or the next a work out day. That way, he and the ones from Eladard could catch up with those they had left behind.

After lunch, the team, Lucas, and Sarah sat in the living room and talked. The green vixen sat on Lucas's lap; you could see how much the two enjoyed it. The others learned a little bit more about how the two had met. It was during the first grade that the two had seen each other. But Lucas, being only six at the time chose to hang out with boys. It wasn't until the fourth grade that Sarah thought Lucas looked cute. This lead to her having a crush on him that turned to love.

As for Lucas, it would be awhile until he turned 14. Then when he was thinking about options, he noticed Sarah. And couldn't help but notice that she had developed a lot physically. One thing lead to another, and after the homecoming dance at his school, Lucas managed to work up the courage to ask Sarah out.

They were still talking when the door bell rang. Sarah got off of Lucas so he could get it and returned with two wolves. One was a male with yellow colored eyes. He had a mixture of white and grey fur. He also had two, small red lines on his left check; just below the eye. The female had shoulder length, brown hair that she kept loose. Her fur was dark grey; almost black. She wore a necklace with a purple gem attached to it, and had beautiful green eyes. The two were holding paws.

"Mitch! Brooke!" said Nicholas with a smile on his face. He went over and hugged to two wolves. They wrapped their arms around him. They pulled back after a few moments.

"Damn Nicholas, you look good," said Mitch, the one with yellow eyes.

"It looks like that adventure you set out on has been good to you," said Brooke.

"It has," said the vulpine. "Let me introduce you to my team." He did so, and that was taken care of in a couple of minutes.

"Say, where's Reed and Hikari?" asked Nicholas when it was done. He knew those two were coming.

"Right here," said a voice. It belonged to another wolf, one who looked to be 13. Behind him was another female one. The male was all white; in fact, he looked a lot like Wolf from Star Wolf. The female one had a white and grey muzzle. But the face was red, and so was her shoulder length hair. Her ears at the bottom were white, but the tops were black. Nicholas went over and gave them a hug.

After the introductions had been done, the newcomers started to talk with the rest of Star Flight. They learned a bit about Mitch, Reed, Brooke, and Hikari. These four wolves were also part Cerinians like Nicholas, Lucas, and Sarah. Reed was the younger brother of Mitch by three years, and Hikari was a friend of his.

The two younger wolves had met in school, but being only 13, nothing was going on between them. But everyone could see that Hikari liked Reed. He just couldn't tell.

As for Mitch and Brooke, they had met Lucas and Sarah during the second grade. The two boys and girls had hit off right away and became good friends. Nicholas got to know them through his brother and Sarah. It wasn't until the fifth grade that Brooke began to take a romantic interest in Mitch. But he didn't notice. Then in the 9th grade, the lupine began to like her. Then when he was 16 at the homecoming dance, Lucas and Sarah who were there as dates saw Mitch kiss his date, Brooke. He then asked her out to the she wolf's joy. After that, these newcomers got to hear a little bit about what the team had been up to.

"So who else is coming?" asked Ben to Lucas after a bit.

"Well Kralie and Saria are," he said. "Oh; and Jazerc and Hui-Ying."

"Hui-Ying?!" asked Nicholas. Suddenly four more people came in. Two were reptiles and the others were pandas. One of the lizards had black hair and green skin. He had a couple of blue markings around his eyes which were colored brown. The female had green eyes and pale green, scaly skin. But that was just how her skin looked naturally. Her hair, which went to her mid back, was also the same color.

The male panda didn't look like one, even though he was one. His muzzle was white, while his face was black and had white eyebrows. His eyes were red, and had white hair. The female had short, pink hair and pink eyes. She looked like she was a delinquent.

Nicholas, although he wanted to greet the other three, knew he had to say hi to Hui-Ying first. He got up and walked nice and slowly over, an evil smile on his face. The female panda just regarded him with a scowl.

"What's wrong Hui-Ying?" he asked. "Afraid to greet the hand to hand combat master?"

"In your dreams Nicholas, but let's put it aside for now and enjoy ourselves since it's been over two years since you left," she responded.

"Fair enough," said Nicholas. He then turned to the other three with a wide grin. They all shared a group hug. After that was over, they came over.

"Who are these ladies and gentlemen?' asked the male lizard in an accent. It sounded like an Australian one.

"The newest members of my team," said Nicholas. He introduced them to the rest, and then pointed out who was who. The male lizard was Kralie and Saria was the female one. Hui-Ying was the pink haired panda, and Jazerc was the male one. Then the team learned a little about the four newcomers.

Saria also had an accent to like Kralie. They both lived on the right side of Asher, but had come as transfer students for a couple of years when Nicholas was in the 10th grade. They were also part Cerinians and were dating.

Jazerc and Hui-Ying had also been transfer students at the same time Kralie and Saria had been; except they had come from Borneo. Both of them were also part Cerinians, and she and Nicholas instantly had struck up a rivalry after learning that their weapons and fighting styles were very similar when they met. They had tried many times to prove who the better hand to hand combat was, and so far a result hadn't been determined. But the vulpine had gotten along very well with Jazerc. Nicholas couldn't help but notice that the two were cuddling on the couch they were sitting on.

"So you two are together, huh?" he asked.

"Yes, we are," said the female panda, blushing a bit but smiling.

"I'm happy for you," said the vulpine with a smile. Hui-Ying could see it in his eyes that he was telling the truth.

Everyone enjoyed the time spent with each other. They spent it watching songs that Star Flight had performed and doing jam sessions in the basement of Nicholas's house. Lucas, Mitch, and Reed knew how to play an instrument. The younger vulpine did drums, the older lupine did guitar, and the other did the electric keyboard. They found Miyu, Fara, Bill, and Fay to be more interesting when they learned of the instrument that those members of Star Flight Played. They had a lot of fun.

But Nicholas knew that more time would have to spent with these people so they could catch up. There was one, perfect way.

They all decided to go to the Six Planets amusement park on Eladard the next day. It opened at 9:30, so Nicholas told his team to get to bed early. They got their swimsuits ready. The park was in an area where it was hot, so it was perfect weather to go swimming at the water part of the park. Everyone would meet at the mother ship, and Nicholas would drive everyone there. The guests came at 8:00, and they were off.

They finally arrived at the amusement park, and it was packed already. Nicholas landed the ship and it transformed into its house mode near the parking lot. Everyone got out and headed to the ticket booth.

Nicholas had made arrangements to get a pass card so the group of 24 could get in. He showed the worker it.

"Oh very nice sir! An all access pass. With this, everything is free; tickets, rides, games, food, you name it. Just show the pass whenever you are going to do something," she said.

"Oh that's great!" said the vulpine. The ticket lady just smiled and giggled a bit. She then gave Nicholas 24 wristbands for his party. They all showed a little insignia of the pass; that showed that all of them were part of a group that had free access to everything. He handed one to everyone. The couples in the group were being cute and tied their girlfriend's on for them, which resulted in a small giggle for the females.

At first the group stayed together. Going on the rides together; roller coasters, spinning rides, and playing games. A couple hours later, they broke apart. The couples left to go ride something together and have lunch.

This left Reed, Hikari, and the team as a group. The others could see the red wolf trying to get something out of Reed. But he was not mature enough to notice her attempts.

Meanwhile, the rivalry between Fara and Luna for Nicholas was beginning to heat up a bit. Although he acted like there were two of him, it wasn't enough. Still, it didn't lead to anything.

Finally, those on the team who loved another member were having their cute, awkward moments. From accidentally brushing against the other, to having their fingers cross the other. It left those members embarrassed.

After a while they stumbled into a part of the park that was all big group games. Nicholas decided to call the rest of their group over. It took about 10 minute before they all showed up.

"What's the big idea bro?" Lucas asked somewhat annoyed.

"Check this out," said the vulpine as he shifted his head. Lucas followed and his eyes widened. They had a combat simulator of space, dog fights.

"Wow, looks fun! Let's go!" said Sarah as she dragged Lucas in; the rest of the group following. The group decided that they should team up with the boys against the girls. Both sides had newbies and experts, so they were evenly matched; despite the fact that there were more girls than guys.

Everyone knew that the couples would try to go after the other; it always was that way. Everyone fought and did their best trying to shoot their opponents down. The game lasted for 45 minutes before the guys managed to win barely.

"Good game everybody," Nicholas announced when it was over. He turned to the seven. "I can see how much you girls have improved by doing the real thing." That comment made them all smile. He then turned to Hui-Ying

"To bad I can't say the same for you." He had taken her out in the first ten minutes of the game.

"You got lucky; wanna go one more time? Let's duke it out right there." She pointed to what seemed a laser tag arena. Everyone walked in after getting their score cards from the flight simulator, and suited up in the armor and took a gun off the rack. Again, it was the guys against the girls. The goal was to see who could get the most points.

The teams started in different areas. When the go signal went off, the young species went in. Before long, laser fire was everywhere.

45 minutes later, they all took off the equipment, and walked out of the room. They saw that the girls had won this time. Nicholas also pointed out to the seven their scores when it came to accuracy and how many shots they had used. The results were incredible. "You'll be on my level in no time," he said. They got their score cards for this game.

After that at 2:30, the group went to the water area of the park. After changing into their bathing suits, the young ones went to have fun. The others finally got to see the spiral tattoos that part Cerinian females had on their upper legs. It looked like the ones that Nicholas had on his arms. They also saw Lucas's, Mitch's, Reed's, Kralie's, Jazerc's, and the other part Cerinian females's tattoos that were in their group.

The group had fun for awhile, enjoying the slides and pools there. Mitch and Brooke ended up having a big make out session under a waterfall at one of the pools. A lot of couples went there for that.

Soon it began to get a little late. After leaving the water area, they all decided to do one last activity. The couples went their own ways, while the team, Reed, and Hikari left to do something else. Lucas and Sarah were walking around to see what they wanted to do, with the vixen holding her vulpine boyfriend's arm. She then pointed at something.

"Oh Lucas, let's go on that ride!" He looked over to see a Tunnel of Love ride; he had a smile on his muzzle. They walked over and got into a boat in the shape of a little cruiser. It started and went through the water. It was dark inside the cave, obviously edging couples to get closer together. There was a hologram projection of the galaxies and star systems, with shooting star's everywhere. It was breath taking; the young couple was in awed. It suddenly shifted to a much more horrific scene. With scary and spooky sounds, it would get quiet for a moment, and then completely shift to something horrific. Sarah was holding onto Lucas tightly, ducking her head into his chest whenever something scary popped out.

It then shifted again to a romantic intake. The entire tunnel was lighted with romantic scenes. Floating hearts, shooting stars, and small furry animal species cuddling together. It projected two little butterflies flying around closely to one another. They flew in front of Sarah; she was in awed with the cute scene. She rested her head on Lucas's shoulder and looked up to him. He then looked to her. They met each other's gaze; Lucas's emerald eyes meeting with Sarah's light blue, piercing each other's soul. They didn't realize the fact that they were slowly getting closer together, until their noses touched.

They closed their eyes and met each other's lips. Immediately Sarah nearly jumped onto Lucas, wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him closer to her, deepening it. He wrapped his arms around her waist slightly lifting her up onto his lap to get closer. Their kiss lasted for several moments until the ride was nearly over. They finally broke apart, slowly but surely. Both out of breath, Sarah continued to sit on Lucas's lap. They were just gazing into each other's eyes; their hearts touched by one another, not breaking there bond either. Sarah then gently lowered her head, resting it on Lucas's muscled chest for the last few moments. The ride stopped and the young couple got out, holding paws and walking down to find the others. They didn't say anything to each other for the longest of times; just staring at each other with love.

After about five minutes of walking, the young couple found everyone else. The day had been fun, but now it was time to go home.

Sunday came, and it found Star Flight going through the pictures they had taken during their time at the park. There were many to go with the ones that had been taken at the other areas.

Then Nicholas made an announcement. "It seems that yesterday, my parents got notices from the rulers of Eladard that the time has come for us to go to them. Therefore, the islands will have to wait until we go to the kings and queens. We'll start with the north and then head south before seeing the High King and Queen."
