BHK fell to the ground from the cockpit of the Gummi ship. A second later, Kairi landed on top of him. Miraculously, they were unhurt, except for a few bruises here and there and their hearts beating ten times faster than it should, everything was fine.
However, the Gummi ship was a different story. It was a mess. Sparks were flying everywhere, scorch marks covered half of the ship, and a wing seemed to have snapped. "Damn..." BHK muttered. He tried to climb back up to the cockpit. "Computer! Are you still operative?" He asked.
"I think so boss!" Was the reply. "But sensors show that we won't be getting back into the air for at least another 48 hours, if we're lucky..." BHK looked puzzled. "We'll be able to fly again?"
"Yep. This ship comes with its own self-repair system. However with damage this extensive, I can't guarantee that we'll ever get back to even 80 percent without outside help."
"How come this system hasn't come into effect before?" BHK inquired. "The self-repair cannot operate while the ship is in use. Too much power is used in powering the blasters, engines and other small standard systems. Only when the ship is not in use can it begin the repairs." The computer explained, sounding slightly annoyed.
"Great. What is the current scan showing?" BHK asked. "The armor strength is at less than 20 percent. Engine #2 is inoperative. Stabilizing wings have been damaged. Power reserved for weapons and extra add-ons is around 40 percent." The computer reported.
BHK dropped again to the ground, being careful to miss Kairi. "We're stuck here then?" Kairi asked quietly, however she didn't seem unreasonably upset.
"Yeah..." BHK replied trailing off as he looked at their surroundings. On all sides, they were surrounded by thick foliage. Large trees reached up out of view, their branches seeming to meld together as one as sight failed with increasing attitude. Vines hung down all over the place, and plant life was abundant.
"It looks as if we've landed in the Deep Jungle." They themselves were in the middle of a small clearing, a small circle of direct sunlight light up the forest floor around them. "It could have been much worse..." BHK stated, matter-of-factly. "We could've landed in Wonderland....I hate that Queen..." Kairi allowed herself a small smile.
"Oh. Kairi?" BHK asked, bringing her attention more focused to him. "Yes?"
"If you ever listen to anything I say, listen to this. While we remain on this world, never, ever piss off the monkeys." BHK told her seriously. Kairi laughed.
Kairi followed BHK through the tangled maze of vines, trees, roots, logs, and plants. BHK figured that they might as well explore. There was nothing else to do. Even collecting firewood would be useless. The wood was too moist to be of any really help.
BHK hacked his way through the forest, searching for any sign of civilization, while Kairi let her mind wander freely. Eventually they came across huge areas of bamboo and the terrain became a little rockier. Not long after, they burst into what appeared to be a camp site. There was luggage all around the area and tents were set up.
BHK looked around and slowly stepped forward. "Hello?" He called. Almost instantly, there was a rustling of a flap and a young woman stepped out. She was fairly tall with dark brown hair. She had on a white tank top and looked as if she had been living in this jungle for a few months.
"Oh hello." She spoke in an English accent. There was an awkward silence and then she finally asked, "Would you like to come in?" BHK shrugged, and accepted the invitation. A few minutes later, they were sitting behind an old projector, sipping tea with the jungle woman.
"Its been a while since we've had any visitors. And to tell you the truth, we weren't expecting any." The woman looked over her cup at BHK. "So, how did you end up in our Jungle?"
BHK put down his cup. "It was a bit of an accident. I'm sorry if we interrupted anything." Kairi looked around the tent and doubted they had interrupted anything at all. "My name is BHK" BHK said, continuing on, "And this is Kairi. We're actually have a job to do, so it's not a horrible thing that we landed here exactly. We are looking for someone. A guy about my size, and carrying a large Key. Have you seen anybody recently?"
The woman shook her head. "There was somebody here a few years ago, with two others. He might have carried this Key that you were talking about...But I can't remember clearly. This was a while back, back before even Tarzan could speak in real sentences. Oh, and I'm Jane by the way."
Kairi sipped at her tea as BHK gave a slight nod to Jane. "Pleased to meet you" Kairi heard him mutter. Kairi didn't listen really to the rest of the conversation. It was a bit disappointing that they hadn't found Sora, but she couldn't lose hope. This was only the first world they had stopped by after all.
"Jane!!" Yelled a voice from outside the tent. Jane looked up and went to the flap, pushing it gently aside. There was a man outside, dressed in nothing but what appeared to be a loincloth. Undoubtedly, this was Tarzan. He didn't look to be in the best of times either. He was bleeding slightly in numerous areas and he was walking with a slight limp.
Jane eyes widened in surprise and she rushed toward him shouting his name. "Tarzan what happened?!"
Tarzan grunted and rested against a flagpole. "I was ambushed by a bunch of strange creatures. They look like the ones from a few years ago." Tarzan winced slightly when Jane touched his arm. "Alright. Let's get you cleaned up first." She said, looking him over.
"Allow me." BHK said striding over. Tarzan only now appeared to notice the two visitors and he asked a string of quick questions to Jane in a whisper. Jane answered back and Tarzan looked curiously at BHK as he finally reached them.
BHK drew the Oathkeeper and rapped it against the back of Tarzan's head. "Heal" BHK said firmly. Tarzan glowed green for a moment, but it quickly died away. The small cuts and bruises were gone. Tarzan also stood without the limp. He was stilling holding onto that one arm though, but he still thanked BHK.
BHK welcomed him but suddenly looked off into the distance. "Now, where were these creatures you saw?"
