Thank you Blackrose342 and Shadowblades for the reviews! Anyway I got in trouble for something or another so I wasn't allowed on the cp for a while. And for Shadowblades question I really can't answer that but you're sort of close to my plans. (Sorta..)

Ch10

Nova's eyes traveled from the pained Antauri to where she had sent the monster flying. What had happened to it? Had she destroyed it? Or only knocked him unconscious. What ever the reason she was glad he was gone. But he would be back... And soon.

It groaned as it sat up head in hand. 'Curse that yellow simian' it thought while standing up. 'She will pay for that' it whispered while beginning back to where the two were. As it drew closer it could see that the silver one was unconscious and that the yellow one seemed too preoccupied with him to probably notice anything. It grinned as it pulled back into the shadows to prepare an attack from behind.

Nova looked around slowly for fear of something watching her. 'Could it be back?' she thought. She looked down at Antauri and gently laid him against the tree close to them. "Don't worry Antauri I'll protect you" she whispered while turning to face her foe.

'Why am I here?... What is here?...' He stood up but was greeted by pure darkness. Only a single light shown upon his body and he took in all he could see but it was nothing until an image flashed before him. It was of him and she was there too as well as the rest of the team! He took a breath in relief and began to smile when he noticed something was... wrong. Way wrong. She was... crying, and the others were... upset. 'Why am I on the opposite side of my team?' He questioned. 'I am not evil, yet... Did I do something? Are they being manipulated or am I?' What the image version of himself did next made his eyes widen, take a large intake of breath, and made him shake his head as he fell to the ground. He backed away as far as possible from the image 'NO!' He got up again and began running. Running harder then he had ever run before. 'This can't be true!' "Oh but it is" A voice came flooding in "In the near future it will happen Antauri" All the pain of what happened before came flooding back and he fell and landed face first on the ground. He cried out as the pain doubled and his eyes slowly began to shut once more.

Nova looked back at Antauri who had screamed again. "Antauri!" She turned and ran over to him then knelt in front of him. His eyes slowly began to flutter open. She let out a deep breath in relief. "You okay Antauri?" His vision was blurry so he wasn't really able to make out the person in front of him only the sound oh her voice made him realize it was her. "Nova?" She nodded "Yes Antauri." He began to get up but she held him back. "Atauri you have no strength to fight much less move! Let me do it!" "N-no.." His vision returned to him and his eyes became wide. Using his right arm he managed to pull Nova down just as a blade sliced through the air at her. He lifted up his left arm and activated his ghost claw and extended it forcing it to shove it back a few feet.

It grinned 'Not bad for someone in so much pain' It began again for Nova who had turned to face her foe. 'To bad you aren't able to do anything but watch her be killed' Nova laughed quietly. "I'd like to see you try. I'm not afraid of you!" 'That will be your downfall.'

Antauri slowly began to pull himself up from the ground. There was no way he would let her fight that thing on her own. Wounded or not he had to help! But the intensity of pain in his body told him otherwise. 'I only need a few minutes Nova please be okay until then.'

Chiro woke up to see he was in a very hot region and he figured out why very quickly. "Just great" he muttered while looking at the flows of lava surrounding him. "What's great kid?" came a voice from behind him. Chiro looked back to see Sprx and Gibson with him. "Are the others here?" The young boy questioned. Gibson shook his head and pointed at the tracker in his hands. "According to this we were all separated in the rather strange attack we just encountered, Jin-may and Otto fell into an artic region." Chiro nodded "Have you contacted them?" Sprx and Gibson nodded "We were able to get through to them and they're on their way to the exit as we should be also." Chiro nodded "Okay we find them then find Antauri and Nova" The other two nodded and began on their journey towards the exit.

With Otto and Jin-may, the two were running towards the exit through a small storm. It wasn't all that much but they had to keep running and couldn't stop. "Jin-may do you think Nova and Antauri will be okay when we find them?" Jin-may looked at the green monkey as she recalled something from earlier. As she was beginning her search for the two monkey on the strange island, she discovered something that frightened her a bit. They were plans. But not just any old plans. They were plans for the torture of the two that were missing. There was also something else about Antauri but she didn't have time to read it as Sprx walked over and offered his assistance to her. She grinned slightly "Sure they will Otto!" The green one smiled and continued running. 'I just pray they are safe and that we're not too late'
