Antauri stood on the balcony of his room in the citadel and looked at the city. By now the team must have reached the city. He casted his senses forward. On this distance, he wasn't able to sense a specific person, but he was able to sense the main-emotion of a crowd. It was great happiness.
"So they reached the city and have proven we have used copies", said the silver monkey to no one particular.
"Are you sure?"
Antauri looked behind him and saw Skeleton King, entering the room. That was the only thing that annoyed him. The Skeleton King had no sense of privacy as long as it didn't go for himself.
"Yes, yes I am. I can sense the happiness of the citizens, a happiness which had been gone for years." The evil King nodded and together they stared at the city. Suddenly something happened and Antauri raised an eyebrow. "Fireworks, really?"
The Skeleton King chuckled and said: "Well, they shall have their party. We won't attack until they come to save Nova."
Antauri nodded and asked: "Why have you come here? Not just to watch the city or gather information about Nova, which, I'd like to mention, I've given you just an hour ago."
"As always Antauri", began the King. "You're fast to catch up. You are right. I came here for an important reason. I will take over Nova's torture for the next few days. I want you to go on a journey; you need to find someone for me."
"Who?", asked Antauri with interest.
He didn't get off of Shugazoom to often so he wanted to use every chance he had.
"It's someone you know very well. It's…"
"Let's go for it team", ordered Chiro. The team flew off in the Fist-Rocket-3. It was one of the few still intact ships on their side.
"I just hope we're not too late", murmured Gibson. "We've probably waited too long."
"It's just been four days", argued Chiro.
"Four days Antauri and the old bag of bone could've done who knows what to Nova", shot Sprx back while concentrating on flying.
"We'll, let's hope for the best", stated Chiro and suddenly all of them but Sprx got thrown through the rocket.
"Gah, Sprx I thought you were the best pilot", complained Gibson.
"You wanna dodge those laser-beams", shot Sprx back and made a dive to the ground. The other three screamed but seconds before they hit the ground Sprx pulled up again and they flew only a few feet over the ground. His three comrades were gasping hard and Gibson did his best to not to throw up.
"Uhm, Gibson are you okay, you're greener than Otto", stated Chiro.
Gibson just nodded and groaned: "You should think after fighting with him so long I would get used to Sprx flying style."
"Again Brainiac, you wanna fly?"
"No", answered Gibson fast, knowing he would just cause a crash-down with Sprx' precious fist-rocket. The blue monkey desperately tried to keep his lunch inside of his stomach while Sprx flew different manoeuvres to dodge the beams. Finally he growled in frustration and said: "I can't land in that way team."
"So what?"
He smirked at Chiro's question and growled: "Time for my second crash-landing!"
"What?"
But the other three's yell got lost while Sprx speeded up dramatically and shot directly towards the citadel. Shooting one missile forward the citadel of bone started to crack where it hit. The team prepared for impact and not one second later they crashed through the wall of the citadel and the lights went out.
For information. Sprx first real crash-landing was in the Night of Fear where he crashed against the Super Robot.
