Thanks Supernova077 for continuing to review I really appreciate it! Anyway here's the next chapter.

CH5

Nova looked at Antauri who seemed to be walking slower then usual. She sped her pace up a bit so that she was walking directly beside him. "Antauri are you okay?" Antauri looked at her and gave her a small smile. "I'm... fine" Nova stopped walking and just stared at him. Antauri kept on for a few paces before realizing she wasn't following. He stopped and turned to see her staring at him. "Nova.." "Antauri are you sure your okay?" He nodded and to prove his point he gave her a soft smile. Nova sighed not believing him nor wanting that smile to be the thing that made her thoughts differ. Antauri's eyes widened "Nova!" He reached out to her to grab her hand but it was to late. Nova was swept into a giant claw of a desert scorpion. Antauri's eyes widened "Hold on Nova!" He yelled while charging the scorpion.

"Gibson how much further?" Gibson gave an agitated sigh. 'Once or twice is okay but that was the 13thtime...' Jin-may saw the look on Gibson's face so she decided to help him out. "Chiro we'll get there soon please calm down" Chiro looked at her "I can't Jin-may" Sprx shook his head and walked over to Chiro. "Hey kid don't worry Antauri's smart he'll pull through and Nova will be right there with him." Chiro looked at him "I know Sprx but... I can't help but worry." Jin-may took his hand and smiled softly at him. Chiro tried to smile but there was just to much running through his mind.

"It will be 2 or 3 hours till we get there because this island is very complicated to find. I suggest we all take it easy till it is found." Gibson had said. Chiro gave a small nod and looked at the clock. 3:54pm. Chiro let out a small yet audible sigh. Jin-may looked at him. "Why don't you go lay down for a while and I'll get you up when we arrive.?" Chiro shook his head. "I can't do that Jin-may what if something happens?" "Chiro your falling asleep as we speak. I promise I'll wake you up if something happens" "How bout you both rest for a while and I'll wake you up of something happens" Chiro and Jin-may looked at the red monkey. It took a few moments but Chiro finally agreed. "I guess..."

Nova cried out in pain as the claw around her body squeezed her tightly. She tried activating her fist but wasn't able to hit the creature because of the position her body was currently in. Antauri had already activated his claws and was charging at their newest foe. 'I must get Nova away from it first' A claw came down to his right side. He dodged it quickly by jumping to the side. All through all he never stopped running towards the other claw which held Nova. He gave a small grin as he went to attack the claw but he only got sand. "What?" He turned to see the scorpion with Nova back away as another scorpion appeared. The newest attacker slammed it's claw on Anturi's back sending him flying.

Nova struggled the entire time since being abducted. "Lemme Go!" The scorpion paid her no mind but watched for Antauri. Nova kept punching the claw hoping it would somewhat weaken and she would be free. But no matter what she did nothing seemed to help her get free. Still she fought with all of her strength not realizing that her actions were starting to disturb the creature. Every moment she fought the creature became more and more agitated till finally it wasn't going to take any more. Slowly the claw began to close so that soon it would snap her in two.

Antauri got up quickly and turned towards the two creatures. 'Okay I must get to Nova quickly but this new foe is blocking my path..' A smile appeared upon his face as he began to charge the scorpion in his way. The scorpion raised it's claws in an attack position. As soon as Antauri was close enough the scorpion brought it's claw down on the monkey. When it lifted it's claw there was nothing under it which seemed to confuse the creature quite a bit. Antauti grinned from behind the monster he had just phased through. He kept running trying to get to Nova before something bad happened to her.

Gibson sighed as soon as Chiro and Jin-may had left. "I don't know how much more of that I could of taken." Otto looked at him "Chrio really is upset about Antauri and Nova" "More so Antauri" Sprx said while sitting in his seat. Otto looked at him "Why?" Gibson sighed and shook his head "Because he sees Antauri as his father." "But what about Nova?" Gibson looked at the green monkey. "He's worried about Nova too but just more so Antauri." Otto nodded "Sure" he smiled happily to himself and began walking towards his own seat. On his way there he managed to trip over his own two feet and ended up face first on floor. Gibson shook his head and Sprx laughed quietly. "Nice one Otto" He looked up from his spot on the floor and looked at the red monkey who had made the comment "Thanks Sprx!" Sprx shook his head. Some things would never change.
