When he woken up, Antauri found himself in a different location, beside a flowing river, under a tree with big leaves wrapped around him and something cold on his head; perhaps another leaf. Confused and curious, his eyes moved around. "You're up already?" Antauri looked over to see a person that appeared to be more of a fairy with her leaf like wings. She was about the size of a child, yet seemed a bit more of an adult then she looked. "Good you had me worried there, you had a high fever."
"Though I... appreciate the..." The simian said through breathes as he tried pick himself up. "Help..." It was that moment the fairy set him back down.
"You mustn't get up your fever hasn't broken... Now you came here looking for someone, am I correct?" He gave a nodded. "I thought I've been sensing the presences of someone else here? Don't worry nothing will happen to them... for a while." Antauri soon gained a puzzled look. "I 'am Honoka, a forest sprit who's assign to keep the water sprit, Naia imprisoned, but as of late she's been steeling souls and now has the soul she needs to be herself free after a few hours of getting the spell ready... I'll help you rescue your friend, if you can help me fight Naia. Now just get some rest and fly us to the place."
"My gratitude, Honoka."
"You're welcome... Here" Honoka said as propped up Antauri's head and placed a stringed necklace with a flower on it. "This will make you feel. Sorry about it being girly, but it's the best I can do."
"It's quite fine."
"Good, now let's get going." At that moment, the forest spirits' from changed to that of a serpent, yet still retaining her forest theme. Soon vines grown out of the back of the dragon grabbed the ill simian and place on her back. As the wrapped around him and she flew off, Honoka asked "By the way, before you get some rest, could tell me your name?"
"I 'am better known as Antauri."
"Well, it's nice to meet you to meet you Antauri." As soon as Honoka said that the black fur simian fell asleep.
When Antauri woken up again, he saw that he and Honoka was in different location. This one seeming to be a long crystal tunnel and an underwater theme and strange water creatures swimming by. "You're awake? Good because we're almost there." The spirit and the monkey stopped in front of an ice fortress. As Antauri carefully gotten down, Honoka questioned "Can you be stealthy, while I divert Naia's attack?"
"I can."
"Good."
Inside Chiro struggled and thrash about to get himself free from now a magical hovering ice platform that bind his hands, feet and waste. "Almost there. You'll be a nice sacrifice to break the seal." a water serpent as she watched the teen.
"Hold It, Naia!"
"Honoka, Come to stop me?"
"You know it. I 'am assign to keep you in here." The water serpent grin before gizzards of water tentacles sprang up beside her and lunged themselves at the forest spirit like whips. Honoka flown off, leaving water to rise up to high distance She soon made a comeback by unleashing her vines at the water serpent, but it gotten block by a water shield.
While the spirits battled, Antauri crept on celling, letting out muffled coughs every now and then, before he let go and landed on Chiro's plat form. "Antuari?!" Chiro asked as he watched his teacher pant a bit with flushed cheeks. "Uh, are you okay?"
"I 'am... fine, Chiro?" The black fur monkey unsheathed his ghost claws and slash the cuffs. Just then, a burst of water gushed towards them, however Chiro gotten up, picked Antauri up, and jumped off.
Back at the battle, the water spirit towered over the forest serpent who struggled to get up. "It looks like I won." Just as Naia was about to lunged her last attack, two names were called out.
"Ghost Claw Attack!"
Antauri cut the creature from behind before Chiro let out a green energy beam "Monkey Fu!" making the water spirit explode, scattering droplets everywhere. At that moment the wise simian collapsed on to the ground. "ANTAURI?!" the human screamed out as he rushed towards his teacher. "Antauri is he..?"
"He has a temperature" Honoka informed him as she turned in her fair form before she lifted the Ill being and him the teen. "It'll best, if you get treatment for it right away."
"Right... Wait, what about you?"
"No need to worry, thanks to two weaken Naia I can take her now. Now get out of here and destroy the mirror before she reforms."
"But...?" All of the sudden a loud growl was let out. Soon the scattered water rejoined with each other. It formed another fairy, only this one had a water theme and appeared to be ticked.
"GO NOW!" Hononka demeaned.
"Wait, how do I get out?!"
"Take this!" The forest themed spirit flung Chiro a flower with long stem. "It'll help you get out of here!" Soon Honoka flown into another fight.
"But how?"
"Just go now!" The forest spirit. Chiro stood there for a bit. As much as he hated the idea, she did have a point, Antauri is in real need of Gibson's medical expertise, and he couldn't afford to make his close ally wait, so he bolted towards the exit. Beside Honoka seem like she got this.
"Not so fast!" Naia was a bout lash water tentacles when Honoka stopped her with her vines.
