Stonetown

Diggs led the JTeens to a Cyclops outpost where Stonetown lay beyond it. The Molekin was explaining the situation to them as well as what was going on as they were waiting on Mushroom ridge.

"Alright, beyond this Cyclops Outpost is where Stonetown is located. This is as far as I can take you." Diggs said before sensing the vibrations in the ground, "But judging from these vibrations something's terribly wrong here."

"I'll fly up ahead to do a little recon." Hsi Wu said as he took to the Skies to assess the situation. From the skies he could see what was going on as he made a comment to himself.

"Either Dai Gui's entered Skylands or the Eternal Earth Source has become a monster." The Sky Demon said as the scene then shifts to a view of the town where the citizens were panicking as a large rock golem was attacking their homes.

"Help," A mabu called, "the Eternal Earth Source has become a monster."

Hsi Wu definatly heard that as he saw the rock golem toss a mabu into the air and to another part of the area before roaring and stomping through everything. The Sky Demon had seen enough before turning around and flying back to Diggs and the group

"I'm going to venture a guess and say that the Eternal Earth Source has become a giant rock monster." Cody guessed as Hsi Wu returned from the flight.

"I'm afraid so Cody." The Sky Demons said as he returned from his air recon. "And this one won't be so easy to defeat."

"Perhaps we should let Cody handle this source." Ice suggested. "After all earth is his element."

"Its going to take a lot more than just my earth powers to defeat this stone golem," Cody said, "We'll need to work as a team."

So the group began to travel through the mushroom ridge in their mission to get the Eternal Earth Source. They encountered some chompies but with help from Cody's earth powers they made quick work of them. Soon they activated the switches that opened the gate and began their quest.

"heads up guys we got company." Rose yelled as the Cyclopses appeared ready to stop them.

"Then lets roast these guys." Drago said as the team fought the Cyclopses and defeated them in no time allowing them to enter the blue water swamp.

"They call this a swamp?" Hsi Wu asked as they walked through the place. "This looks more like a lagoon than a swamp."

"Believe me Hsi Wu, swamps aren't entirely smelly and dirty." Rose said as they fought the enemies. "Well not all of them at any rate but we'll ask the citizens of Stonetown later."

"Assuming they haven't all fled to the hills from the Eternal Earth Source by now." Sara said worried, "I'm worried about them."

"Save some of that for us." The Sky Demon retorted, "We're about to go face to face with a huge golem ready to tear us limb from limb."

"Uncle's right." Drago said, "We've got to focus on the mission here."

So the team continued making their way through the swamp battling Cyclopses and what not. Colleen was really shining in this area as there was an abundance of water allowing her to use her powers to the fullest. Soon the team arrived at the entrance of another area of Stonetown. The JTeens went on ahead while the twins covered the rear while discussing Colleen's water powers.

"Colleen seems to be doing okay," Sara spoke, "And she's got the makings of a great leader."

"But she's only as good if there's water in the area." Rose reminded, "You saw how useless she nearly was."

"I know you don't want to call her useless sis but you have a point." The Sun Sorceress Queen said, "We assumed that Gill Grunt might solve this issue with her water powers but he can't stay with her forever."

"I know that." Rose said, "That's why I'm hoping that either the eternal water soruce fixed that little issue because if not then we may have no choice but to give her the Eternal Magic Source."

"The Eternal Magic source?" Sara said shocked, "That source is no exact science. Magic may be the very essence of Skylands but the Eternal Magic Source is too powerful to be contained."

"I'm aware of that." Rose countered, "But for now let's hope we can manage without it. Otherwise we may have to visit our past."

Sara said no more as the twins caught up with the group outside the entrance to another area. They faced down some new enemies which included some Earth Spell Punks and Rock Walkers. Chrissie noticed the twins' had been discussing some things behind the backs of the JTeens and she figured it had to relate to either their Arkeyan Ancestors or something else.

"You two okay?" Chrissie asked the twins.

"We're okay." Rose said, "Sara and I were just discussing something."

"Discussing about me?" Hsi Wu asked hopefully only to get his ear pulled by his nephew.

"The last thing they need is a womanizing demon sorcerer in their lives." Drago said pulling his uncle by the ear much to his embarrassment.

"Ow, Drago, not the ear," Hsi Wu pleased, "I need that to listen with."

"What was Drago thinking picking him in the beginning of the JTeens adventure?" Sara sighed as she face palmed.

"Either he chose him for being the swiftest of his relatives," Rose said, "Or Drago lost his brain cells in the netherworld."

"I'm probably thinking the latter but it was the former." Chrissie said, "Now back to the conversation. What were you two talking about?"

"We'll tell you later." Rose said as she opened the door. "Right now we've got to deal with the Eternal Earth Source."

So the group entered the New Fortress zone where Skylanders of the Earth Element were stronger. To continue the mission, they had to move some blocks around to open the big gate that led outside. Once through the gate the team faced down some more enemies and moved a few blocks around in order to create pathways allowing them to progress.

"How much further is it to the Eternal Earth Source?" Hsi Wu groaned, "My legs are getting a cramp."

"Normally I'd think Bat boy wasn't working out but in this case he's got a point." Ice stated, "We're getting quite worn out from the constant attacks."

"Not to mention those Earth Spell Punks were giving us a hard time." Chrissie said, "But Colleen probably has it the worst."

"Why is that?" Cody asked, "Colleen can defend herself well."

"Yes but only if there's enough water nearby," Rose answered, "Without any water present Colleen can't use her water powers."

"And Martial arts will only help so much against the Eternal Earth Source." Ice groaned as they saw the Eternal Earth Source in the Town Outskirts. It was stomping through the place like it was the boss.

"I think we might need a little bit of help." Sara said, "Rose and I will go and get some back up."

"Got it," Drago said, "In the meantime we'll try to keep the Eternal Earth Source from doing any more damage."

So the group emerged in the town outskirts where the twins headed into the Life Elemental Gate that Camo graciously opened for them. Upon opening the gate they headed into the Wayward Town and contacted Xua Wing.

"Rose, Sara hello again," The King of Avalon said to the twins, "Nice time to chat but shouldn't you be looking for the Eternal Earth Source?"

"That's the thing. The Eternal Earth Source has become a huge golem and we need some back up defeating it." Rose said as she explained the situation to Xua Wing.

"I see and I suppose you want to ask one of my children to help." Xua Wing said after hearing about what's happened to the Eternal Earth Source.

"We were kinda hoping you could send over Dai Gui." Sara said. "As the Earth Demon Sorcerer, Dai Gui should be more than a match for the Golem."

Xua Wing agreed as he opened a portal and Dai Gui stepped through it. Dai Gui had already been informed of the situation and he agreed to help the teens out.

Over with the JTeens they were having a hard time fending off the Eternal Source in the Rumbling Ravine. Drago, Ice, and Cody were doing what they could but their attacks were not very effective even with Chrissie giving Ice and Drago a boost with her wind powers. Hsi Wu flew up and tried to drop kick the Golem only to kick solid stone.

"Ow." The Sky Demon cried as Colleen helped him to safety, "What is that thing made of? Its like punching solid rock."

"That's because it's a rock golem what did you expect." Colleen said to him as the goelm tossed another bolder. Colleen threw hre right hand at the monster and a torrent of water blasted the golem forcing it on the defensive.

"Colleen, how did you do that?" Drago asked surprised that there wasn't any water near buy.

"Call it a guess but it might have something to do with the Eternal Water Source." Ice said, "It must've given her the power to summon water from anywhere. Even when there's no water near by."

"You got that right guys." Rose said as she and Sara arrived. "The Eternal Water Source granted Colleen some of its power so now she can summon water without having to be near a water source."

"That's the best news I've heard so far." Cody cheered dodging the bolders, "But we could still use some help."

"That's why we brought back up." Sara said as Dai Gui the Earth Demon made his appearance. "We figured Dai Gui can handle this Golem."

The JTeens wisely stood back as they let Dai Gui go head to head with the golem. At first the Golem tried tossing bolders at the Earth Demon but Dai Gui caught said bolders and threw them back at him. The Golem then tried attacking with falling bolders but Dai Gui simply burrowed underground to avoid the attack. After a few rounds of boulders and blows echanged Dai Gui had finally subdued the Earth Golem turning it back into the Eternal Earth Source.

"Thanks for the help Uncle," Drago said to Dai Gui, "We really needed it."

"No problem nephew." Dai Gui said as he headed back to Avalon, "Just call if you need me in the future."

"We will." The Twins said as Dai Gui headed back while Cody went to get the Eternal Earth Source. Once he did the Source charged up his powers giving him new abilities with his Earth Element and teleported everyone back to the Ruins.

"You have brought the Eternal Earth Source, The eye within the eye, and the very foundation of Skylands." Eon's voice said to the portal masters as it hovered before them back at the Core of Light.

The Eternal Earth Source added itself to the Core of light as the colomn of the machine revealed more parts within. Inside the machine the crystal summoned by the Crystal Eye began to glow and shoot energy which the Crystal Eye focused and aimed towards the sky.

A talking tree stump then emerged from the ground and began speaking as it observed its new surroundings.

"Sunlight feels so good on my leaves and the water is so delicious, and the earth is just right." The talking tree said "Thanks for revving me, I am Arbo! Son of Barbo! Child of Larbo! Spawn of-"

"Ah talking tree," Hugo screamed before composing himself much to the relief of the JTeens, "Where are my manners? I am Hugo and these are the Portal Masters. Master Eon has been destroyed and we need your help. Can you help us?"

"I'm not sure, I'm only 8 seconds old and yet I have memories of all of this happening before." Arbo said "We must recover the Eternal Life Source."

"Alright so let's go." Hsi Wu said before taking flight. "I'll be back with the Eternal Life Source in three seconds."

"Hold it," Arbo said, "We must first gather the Seeds of Life."

"Do we need these for the Core of Light?" Ice asked.

"No the Seeds of Life will tell us where to find the Eternal Life Source." Arbo said. "The Roots will point the way."

"That's correct but how did you know all of that?" Sara asked since she and Rose studied up on the Blue Prints of the Core of Light during their training.

"I just seem to know it. I can do something like this." Arbo said as he walked over to a patch in the ruins. He then caused a giant Tree stalk to rise into the sky.

"And I don't even know how I'm doing it." Arbo admitted, "It's like I'm doing it by instinct."

"Looks like that's the way to Treetop Terrace." Hugo said.

"Is that what you call it?" Arbo said, "We green folk know it as the Tree of Life."

"My guess is that's where the Life Seeds are hidden." Colleen said.

"That's right." Arbo said, "I can take you there since I know the way. I've always known the way I think."

"And I thought Gurglefin, and Diggs were nuts. Though Flynn I can tolerate." Hsi Wu grumbled earning him a head bump from the twins.

"Let's just go." Chrissie said, "Before Hsi Wu says anything else stupid."

Without further questions Arbo lead the Team onto the leaf as it rose up the stalk and carried them to Treetop Terrace.
