Tammy woke up and looked around at Raimundo who was sitting on the windowsill in tracksuit bottoms, looking over the city. The sun couldn't rise here, but it seemed like there were a thousands tiny lights blending together to create a shimmering haze, like a car lights in fog.

"It's beautiful at night," Said Tammy, now dressed, walking up beside him.

"Yeah, it is," he said, "It kinda reminds me of when I used to wake up early at the temple and you could see the sun rising over the mountains. Y'know? It was really calming and pretty."

"I wish I could've seen it," Said Tammy.

"I wish I could've shown it to you," Said Raimundo.

She put her hand on his shoulder and her raised his own hand and held it there.

"Maybe when this war's over we'll re-build it," Said Raimundo, "just like it was and we can train more dragons and teach them to fight evil."

"That's depending we win," said Tammy.

"We're going to win," Said Raimundo determinedly, "I think … maybe that's why I came back now. I don't think it as a coincidence that I showed up when I was most needed. I came back now because it was fate. I was needed now and I came back to help Nihon, Clay and Master Fung win this thing and I'm going to help Omi! I'm gonna get him back. He didn't give up on me, I won't give up on him."

Tammy smiled and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. He was so sweet and she just wanted to stay there forever, but they had work to do and if Raimundo's vision was ever going to come true they would have to work hard.

Kimiko sighed and got up. She couldn't sleep. All she was thinking about was Omi. Omi, and Raimundo. They had managed to get Raimundo back from the other side when he had made the decision himself. Omi was under someone's control and she was certain he was stronger than he seemed. Knowing Omi, he was building up his strength and fighting back each and everyday and then one day, he'll break free and help them fight Chase with everything they've got. It was just a matter of time.

She raised her hand and placed it on the glass.

"Omi …" She whispered, "if you can hear me, fight back. Fight back with everything you've got and when you're free, we'll be there to help you home!"

With that she turned around and went back to bed, desperate to get some sleep before work in the morning.

Ashley stopped suddenly and Jermaine almost walked into her.

"What's up?" He asked.

Ashley raised a hand to silence him. There was the sound of soft feet padding the ground. Feet … or paws.

"Omi …" She gasped in fear.

The yellow cat landed softly on the ground, looking around. Behind him must have been at least a dozen soldiers. Omi grew back into his human form and looked around.

"I'm sorry sir," said one of the soldiers, "I was sure I heard voices."

"Spread out, search everywhere and report back here if you find anything." Said Omi.

They searched for about fifteen minutes before one of the soldiers called out.

"Sir, I've found something!"

Omi walked slowly over and the soldier handed him a slightly blood stained knife. It was difficult to tell if it was human blood or not.

"Sir, does it mean anything?" asked the soldier.

"Perhaps," Said Omi, "We're moving on. Wrap this up."

He handed the knife back to the soldier and they began to move back on as Omi shrank back to his faster and quieter cat form.

In a tree, not ten feet from where Omi and his men had been standing, hidden among the branches and leaves were Ashley and Jermaine.

"Did that knife mean anything to you?" Asked Jermaine.

"It means that they've moved on." Said Ashley, a slight smile spreading over her face, "That means that Master Fung is out of danger, Clay would've moved on by now and that just leaves Kimiko. We've got to get to the camp in China."

"How are we going to find the camp in China?" asked Jermaine.

"I'm hoping they're going to find us," Said Ashley, smiling that smile again.

"How?" Asked Jermaine.

Ashley pulled a fine chain from around her neck.

"I just remembered something," She smiled again, "Something I kept hidden for so long I forgot all about it."

On the end of the thin chain was a pink crystal with a silver dragon coiled around it.

"What is it?" Asked Jermaine.

"Do you always ask so many questions?" Asked Ashley.

"Only around cute girls," Said Jermaine.

"Sorry, I'm taken," Said Ashley, "This is a Dragon Operating Jupiter Opal aka; a DOJO. It's a rare stone given to all the spies in Chase's camp so that we can call to be picked up, but it works on certain magic. It can only be used by someone who is trusted by the dragon who it comes from. It's a magic that's only been discovered recently. Chase Young doesn't even know about it."

"The dragon it 'comes from'? That sounds kind of … ew," Said Jermaine.

"Don't be stupid," said Ashley, "It's created by a magical dragon's flame when the soot is compressed and re-heated, the magic activates and it makes a pink stone. I'm not entirely sure how it works, but only I can use this one."

"What do you do?" Asked Jermaine, still not entirely convinced that his 'ew' was to be frowned at.

Katnappe looked around and saw a broken limb of the tree. She jumped over and ran her right hand over the broken limb, quickly, but hard. She winced and when she pulled her hand away there was a line of blood slashed across it. She came back over to Jermaine and dipped the tip of the crystal into the blood. The cut seemed to be sucked up into the stone. Her hand was healed and the stone was now glowing a deep red and kept flashing like a homing beacon.

"With any luck, Dojo will pick up the DOJO's signal and he'll come and find us." Said Ashley, leaning back in the tree.

"Here's hoping." Said Jermaine, looking up at the star-dotted sky.

Dojo and Clay had been watching over Jack for hours now. Clay was mostly thinking about Kimiko and was wondering if she was recovering from her nightmare. His own battles with Omi haunted him day and night.

"Do you ever suppose he's going to wake up again?" Asked Dojo.

"I'm sure he will," Said Clay, looking down at Jack.

"He must be exhausted," said Dojo.

"I can't believe that he's alive after the state he was in when I got him out of there," Said Clay.

"After WE got him out of there," said Dojo.

"I wonder why he didn't use his …" Began Clay.

"DOJO!" Shouted Dojo, loudly.

"Yeah," said clay.

"No! I mean one's just activated," said Dojo, "It's … it's Katnappe's!"

"We can't break into Chase's jail to bail her out," Said Clay.

"No! She's no where near Chase's base anymore!" Said Dojo, staring widely into space.

"Then we can go get her!" Said Clay, standing up.

"Ashley …" Said a quiet voice near them.

They both looked down at Jack.

"She's calling?" He whispered, his eyes still shut.

"Yeah, she's calling. We're going to go and get her!" Said Clay.

"Safe … make sure she's … safe …" He whispered before falling back into peaceful sleep.

Kimiko and Raimundo both came out of their homes at the same time. Tammy and Yuuji had both gotten up early and left already. Kimiko and Raimundo's eyes met.

"Did you have fun last night?" Asked Kimiko, in a would-be-casual voice.

"Yeah," said Raimundo, smiling, "It was great."

"I'm so glad I can't hear you from my house then," Said Kimiko, starting to walk along the path.

"Excuse me?" Asked Raimundo, catching up to her.

"I saw Tammy leaving your house this morning, just as I got up." Said Kimiko.

"And? Is it any of your business?" Asked Raimundo.

"No, there's no need to get all defensive!" Said Kimiko.

"No need to get stressed," Said Raimundo, "if you're jealous just say so."

"I'm not jealous! I have a wonderful boyfriend of my own thanks!" Said Kimiko.

"Yeah, but he's not me," Said Raimundo, sighing in mock pity.

Kimiko elbowed him hard in the ribs.

"Ow!" He shouted, making passers by stare.

"You're so full of yourself." Said Kimiko.

"Am not," Said Raimundo.

"Are too," Said Kimiko.

"Am not!" Said Raimundo.

"Oh you sooooo are!" Said Kimiko.

They both stopped and looked at each other.

"We're arguing like teenagers again," Said Kimiko.

"I know, isn't it great?" said Raimundo, smiling broadly.

"No!" Snapped Kimiko, "You've got to grow up Raimundo! We're in a war here!"

"And we always will be in a war," Said Raimundo, "even when this one is finished, there will be other evils starting a fight and it'll start all over again. It's our job to stop it, but if we just do our job, then we'll wake up one day thinking that all we've become is the thing we used to hate when we first started. We'll be nothing but the job and we'll realised that we've wasted our lives."

"It's not a waste if we've saved lives!" Said Kimiko.

"What's the point in saving lives if you become so cold that you end up sacrificing them for your own cause?" Said Raimundo.

"What does that mean?" Asked Kimiko.

"Think about it," Said Raimundo, "You're letting Katnappe rot in Chase Young's dungeons so that you don't get found."

"So WE don't get found," Said Kimiko.

"No, it's not. Chase might enslave these people, he might use them, he might take over their minds, but the chances that he'll just waste their lives is slim. He's only killed innocent people while trying to draw YOU out!" said Raimundo.

Kimiko looked at the ground.

"It's us he wants, not these people." Said Raimundo, "He knows that if he takes us down he'll be taking away their hope and they'll just have to surrender."

"They won't surrender!" Said Kimiko.

"Wouldn't you?" Asked Raimundo, "If we lost everyone wouldn't you give up?"

"I didn't give up when I lost you!" Snapped Kimiko.

She suddenly backed away.

"You obviously don't want me here," said Raimundo, "I'm going to find Dojo and he can take me to Master Fung. I'll go and help where I'm needed."

By this time they were outside the Headquarters and they saw Clay and Dojo running towards them.

"Katnappe!" shouted Dojo.

"No, I'm Nihon." Said Kimiko.

"No, Katnappe's activated her DOJO," Said Clay, "she's safe!"

"DOJO?" Asked Raimundo.

"A small lizard type creature at your feet," Said Dojo.

"What do you mean she's activated her DOJO?" Asked Raimundo, aiming a kick at the lizard.

"Dragon Operating Jupiter Opal," Explained Clay, "Like an emergency signal for the spies. She's safely out of reach of Chase Young."

"Then lets go and get her," Said Raimundo.

"We were just going," Said Clay.

"I haven't ridden on Dojo in years," said Raimundo, smiling, "Not that it's really that different. More like days really."

"Well, come on. We're going now!" Said Clay.

"Raimundo, we haven't finished this conversation!" Snapped Kimiko.

"No," Said Raimundo, "I'd say that we have."

With that, they headed for the carts, which would take them to the surface. Kimiko didn't get it. How could he think she was jealous? And now he's leaving just because he lost the argument. Typical Raimundo.

Ashley and Jermaine climbed out of the tree around midday and sat on the grass. They didn't want to leave their position too much because Dojo was trying to pin point them. They sat in silence, soaking in the sun that they hadn't seen in days. Ashley was keeping one eye open for Omi and his search party who would end up coming back looking for them in this direction.

Ashley sighed a deep sigh and closed her eyes briefly. Then she heard a 'whooshing' noise over head and her first instinct was that Omi had come back in cat form and had just jumped over them. She opened her eyes, but Omi wasn't around. She looked up. A green dragon was swooping down to ground. The two figures on his back were familiar, yet different.

Jermaine had sat up and was glancing from them to her.

"Are you sure it's them?" He asked, "They look similar, but still different."

"That's them all right," said Ashley, smiling weakly and wrapping her hand around her DOJO, which was once again pink, "that's them …"

(A/N) I hope you're having fun reading this. So what have Raimundo and Tammy been up to? (Gasp!) As if none of us know. ¬¬

Tell me what you think. I hope you're enjoying this. Lots of luv, Becky.
