Tom and the kids returned to the Taros base and found everyone in the lounge. They were watching TV. Tom gave the kids a look that said "Ask now and we might have a chance".

While on the Gustav, Tom had told the kids about his plan to get them into a real battle. All they had to do was get the permission of the their parents. (Besides him)

Mizuki walked over and sat down between Naomi and Brad. Shane went and turned off the TV. Vince jumped over the couch and landed next to Bit. Peter went over to his parents and Tom stood over in front of the TV while Shane stood next to him.

Tom: As you know, I have been training the kids to be zoid warriors. I feel that they are almost ready for a real battle. Before that, I have one more test for them. First we need your permission though…

Jamie: What kind of test?

Tom: Survival Training. The kids would be left in the middle of nowhere with nothing but their supplies, their Zoids, and each other. If they survive for three days then they pass the test. I know what you're thinking… they won't be in that much danger. At any time, if they want to quit of if there's a problem, I'll be there with the Black Wing Liger immediately.

Cassandra: Tom, if you think he can handle it, Shane can go.

Leena: Three days…all alone out there…

Bit: Don't worry Leena, he's been trained by the legendary warrior of shadow, and besides he is our son.

Leena: Okay… Vince can try too.

Pierce: I'm sure that the third generation Wild Eagle could pass the test.

Jamie: He hasn't become the Wild Eagle yet, but he's still in.

Naomi: Well Brad, you think our daughter can survive out there with all those boys?

Brad: I'm not sure if I want my little girl out there all alone…

Mizuki: C'mon Daddy, I'm not a little girl any more, besides I won't be alone. I'll have Vince, Shane, Peter, and my Spino-Sappa. And don't worry, if these boys try anything, I know how to deal with them.

Brad: Alright. You can go.

Tom: Then it's settled, tomorrow the kids will pack and get ready for their test.

Kids: Yeah!!!!!

Everyone started talking. Tom's watch beeped and he and Cassandra leapt out the window. Everyone blinked a few times then went back to talking.

**Next Day**

All the kids were up early. They loaded their zoids up and threw their bags into the Zoids. Tom was already up and in the kitchen (oh no…)

BOOM!

Everyone jumped into the ceiling. Tom was immediately dragged out of the kitchen. Naomi, Bit, Jamie, and Pierce made a huge breakfast.

After they finished eating, the kids and their parents proceeded to the Hanger. As everyone walked down the hall, Tom pulled Shane off to the side.

Shane: What is it, Dad?

Tom: Your mother doesn't know about this, so try to keep it a secret. *Hands Shane a Box*

Shane opened the box and was surprised. It was a Shock Glove.

Shane: Wow…Thanks Dad.

Tom and Shane followed after the others.

**Hanger**

The kids stood in front of their Zoids. Tom and the Black Wing Liger stood in front of them. The others were near the door.

Tom: You will be left in the middle of nowhere (try not to bother Courage or BecBet) with nothing but your zoids, your bags, and each other. You will have to survive for three days. During these three days you will have to work your way to the rendezvous point. I will be there waiting for you. If all four of you make it there within the three days then you will have passed the test. At any tie that you wish to quit, the whole group must agree on this, then you can call me with the devices I have given you. Use them to call me if there is an emergency. This is your last chance to quit.

Shane: Not a chance!

Mizuki: Never.

Peter: We're not going to back out now.

Vince: No way!

Tom: Just as I thought. Before you go I have one last treat for you…it should be here by now…

Harry: LEENA!

Harry busted through the door and looked around. The kids just smiled evilly.

Kids: ATTACK THE CHAMP!

The kids tackled Harry. Eventually he got away and they chased him away from the base. They then returned to the hanger and got into their zoids.

The Zoids were loaded into a Whale King and the transport zoid took off. It disappeared in the distance.
