Me: another chapter, yay! And if you're reading this chapter, then you must really like this fanfic to be still reading!^^ thank you!^^

Mushra: or maybe they're being forced. I know I wouldn't-

Me: Blah blah blah, lalalalala! *has fingers in ears as I ignore Mushra*

Mushra: hey, stop ignoring me, I'm talking here!

Me: lalalaaaaaaaaa!

Mushra: god, you are so freaking annoying, you brown haired….thing!

Me: enjoy!^^ lalalala!

Jaden:

"What?" heather almost yelled in surprise. "Xaviers evil? What the heck?"

"And apparently, he wants to kill Zen." I told her as we were all riding. Sago and Mushra and Kutaal were listening in, too. "Zen's not going to let Xavier threaten him or his relationship with winter, though he's accusing Winter of still loving him just because she says he shouldn't kill him. She thinks he's just confused and blinded by hate and pain and being influenced by Eilis, who's taking advantage of his pain."

"Man, that's crazy…" Sago said, shaking his head. "Are they ok?"

"They say they're fine…physically, at least. And winter has her own powers, too. How do you think this is happening?"

"I don't have any idea." Sago said, shaking his head. "Man, I can't believe that's happening with them. I mean, how could the guys think they didn't care? It's clear they all love each other."

"Seriously…" I said. Man that would suck. I just hope they make up soon, they don't need to be growing apart at a time like this.

"We haven't heard anything yet…" ookami told us, pouting.

"Well, it will take them a while to hear it if they're far away, bubu!" Hana said in a 'no duh' tone. "And we have to wait for night for them to respond. Patience, ok?"

He nodded.

And then we heard two, tiny growls. They looked up at us and smiled.

"Kutaal?"

"I shall get to it right away!" he announced as we stopped and he began cooking.

After that, we stayed and ate for a little while. We talking, mostly about the others. I mean, man. How could all this be happening?

And then we were off again. I just hoped we got to this town soon. The robots were leading, since they had something in them that worked like a GPS. I was glad they had come with. We'd be going until either the morning or the next night…so, yeah, we're so gonna be tired. Let's hope not many enterrans attack.

Carly:

"Who was that guy?" Shadow asked me once again, sounding like he was starting to get annoyed. I just stayed quiet. If he was going to ignore me, I was going to ignore him. "Carly, I'm serious, who was he?"

I sighed then. I wasn't going to be childish like him. "His name is Xavier."

"Yeah, I got that already."

"And he's Winter's old boyfriend."

"…Oh." He said, now realizing why everything went down the way it did.

"Yeah. Now, can you leave me alone?" I asked him.

"…I…" he tried to say something but side and left me alone.

I sighed, so annoyed. There is no possible way I'm going to be able to choose right now, with him still like this and distracting me and with fights happening every now and then.

Winter:

"Zen, listen to me!" I begged as we were still awak talking in the living room. He's been ignoring me this whole time. I got home, I went straight to bed, but I wasn't able to sleep so I came to talk to him, only to have him ignore me mostly.

"No, Winter, I don't want to hear it. Just leave me alone." He said.

"Come on, you'd feel the same if the positions were reversed, so don't give me this crap!"

"I wouldn't be protecting some other girl if she threatened you, Winter! No matter what I may have had with her before!"

"You were threatening to kill him, too!"

He just ignored me.

"Ugh! God, why are you so stupid?" I exclaimed.

"Oh, I'm stupid?"

"Yes, for actually questioning me and thinking I still love Xavier. I don't love him anymore, I love you. But that doesn't mean I'm going to sit back and let you two try and kill each other!"

"You mean me kill him?" he asked in a dark voice.

"Oh my god! Guys are STUPID!" I yelled at the top of my lungs and headed to my room.

I heard someone come in a few minutes later.

"Winter, is everything ok?" it was my mom and dad.

"Just leave me alone, I don't want to talk about it!" I yelled and heard them leave. I felt kinda bad, but I didn't feel like dealing with them right now.

The next few days went by with me and Zen ignoring each other, even when we had to go and fight more of those strange enterrans. Same with Carly and Shadow, they just ignored each other. This isn't how everything's supposed to be, I'm tired of this!

Heather:

"Are we there yet?" I asked, falling asleep on Mushra's shoulder as we still traveled through trees.

"Uh, I don't think so, Heather, or else we would have stopped by now." Mushra said and I flicked him in the back of the head. "OW!"

"We should be there soon, thankfully. Me and Clip need to refuel. And so does Binka's….turtle thing." Bolt said.

Just then, we broke through trees, the sunlight shining right in my eyes. I shielded my eyes with my hand and looked ahead.

I had to admit, this place looked kinda beautiful. The buildings were white and light blue and green. There were little statues of turtle and turtle-like enterrans everywhere. One looked like a woman with a shell on her back and a bit of a wide face and in place of her eyes were jewels that shined blue and I guess that's who or what this town was named after. A turtle oracle. And of course, this palace consisted mostly of turtle like enterrans. It seemed peaceful. The people smiled as we came in to the town and traveled down the streets.

We gazed around for a while, until we remembered what we were here for.

We stopped and tried asking people everywhere, where the mountain with the girl was. But every time we asked, they shook their heads no and ran off, saying stuff like, "Beware the swan spawn." I was mostly wondering why it rhymed, I didn't really think much of it.

But finally, at an old shop, we ask an old geezer of a turtle if he knew and he nodded and pointed us in the right direction, saying if we just go straight for a few more miles, we'll come to the mountain. And if we travel up an old, stone path then we'll find the cave she's in.

So, we left. No one even thought of resting, except me, but I didn't say anything. We kept going for a little while (long enough for me to almost fall asleep again before someone talking woke me up).

"There it is!" Sago said and I saw the path.

And then we followed the path. Jaden began to get a bit nervous as we got higher and higher up the mountain. She was clinging to Sago with her eyes shut.

"Scared of heights, Jaden?" I teased.

"Shut up, heather!" she said in what was supposed to be a strong and angry tone, but it was ruined when her voice broke out of fear.

"It'll be ok, mommy, we won't let you fall." Hana said on her shoulder.

Jaden opened her eyes to smile at Hana, only to close them fast when she saw the edge of the path and how high we were.

We went for about fifteen more minutes, the sun now in the middle of the sky. But finally, we saw something shining in the cave. We hurried up and made it to the entrance, stopping short when we did.

Well, apparently, Sago's rumors were true. Because when we stopped, we saw her. The girl. She was surrounded in ice, a symbolic kinda circle surrounding her and I wonder if that was something that kept the ice there. I couldn't really see what she looked like, the ice distorted her.

Mushra jumped off the board and walking forward, us coming slowly behind.

"Whoa…weird…" he said, touching the ice.

Just then, the circle on the ground that surrounded the girl and the ice began to shine a bright yellow. There was a huge flash and then it stopped. The ice had disappeared, leaving an icy chill in the cave. It was all misty for a moment, before we coulkd finally see cleary.

The girl was lying on the ground, in the middle of the circle, on her hands and knees. She had long pink hair that surrounded her. And then she stood, slowly opening her eyes to look at Mushra (who had an uh-oh look on his face, like he just broke something). Her eyes were a bright silvery color, almost white and her skin was honey pale. She wore a long flowing skirt with bits of designs on them and a silver waist/belt thingy. And her shirt was like a tank top, though she had sleeves that flowed behind her. They didn't cover her arms.

"Who are you?" she asked in a soft but strong voice.

"Uh…I'm Mushra? Sorry I didn't mean to…un-ice you." Mushra said.

"The only reason why someone coming here and stepping in my seal circle could awaken me, is if that person was in need of me. Are you?" she asked.

"Uh, yeah. There's this guy who were after who plans on freeing this other guy who is really bad, and we need more power to fight him with." He told her.

"And you seek my help? My powers?" she asked.

He nodded.

"Than I shall serve you until there is no need for me to any longer. But you must seal the deal. Are you willing to seal it?" she asked, waiting and I wondered what she meant.

"Uh, yeah I guess." He said and she began to walk forward until she was in front of him and then he asked, "…Wait, how do you-"

And then she did something that shocked everyone and angered me.

She kissed Mushra right on the mouth.

The circle flashed once more and disappeared. She moved away from Mushra and he just watched her with a surprised look on his face as he blushed.

"It is done. Now I am yours." She said.

(Excuse my French, but) Oh, hell no!

Winter:

We were on watch again, completely quiet and not really talking to each other. I was waiting for two things though. Well, three…but one of them I didn't really think was going to happen…

1, I was waiting for the next attack, duh. Especially when we had to watch for Xavier, too…

2, I had given Hakuba those weird enterran cards to scan so he can tell me whats up.

3, and the one I doubt will happen. I'm silently, doubtfully and sadly waiting for Zen to stop acting like this with me, this was just going to separate us all!

"Winter." I heard Hakuba robotic voice say and I jumped up, ignoring Zen as I passed him and going to Yakumo and Hakuba on the other side of the meteor.

"Did you find anything out?"

"Yes." He said.

"Well?"

"…They aren't enterrans. Not true enterrans anyways. They are humans and animals engineered to be a more powerful being. They are the beginning of the enterran race."

….No way….

Mushra: my gosh, you have anymore twists up your sleave?

Me: ;) you have no idea *is smiling evily* Review!^^
