"Sandra! Where are you?" Kyoya shouted as the group searched for Sandra and Emma. They were the only two missing. Kyoya wished it had been Ryuga missing instead of Sandra. Kyoya hated staying near Ryuga too long. He was just a total menace in his eyes.
"Sandra! Sandra! Answer us!" Alex shouted. "Where in the world could she be?"
"Who knows? We don't even know when we are," Tsubasa replied coming up beside her.
"We'd better find out soon," Gingka piped up. "Sandra! Emma! Where are you?"
"Don't we already know that doesn't work?" Ryuga growled.
"Oh! Shut your mouth!" Kyoya snapped. Kyoya glared at Ryuga for a moment before looking around. "Sandra! Come on!"
"This isn't funny, Sandra!" Kenta shouted.
Kyoya halted underneath a tree. He guessed Sandra was running around looking for them with Emma. She probably wasn't having fun since it was with her rival.
"Hey, Kyoya," Kyoya jumped a little. He looked to see Sandra hanging from a tree branch upside-down.
"What are you doing?" Kyoya asked.
"Looking for you and doing what did when I was young at the same time," Sandra answered. "Right Emma?"
"Yep," Emma appeared hanging the same way Sandra was. They gave each other a fist bump and everyone stared in shock that the two rivals got along so well. All except Alex and Ryuga. Ryuga didn't care and Alex knew Emma.
"You two..." Gingka began.
"Get along better than we did a little while ago?" Sandra finished for him.
"Yeah. Why?" Madoka asked.
"We're more than rivals," Emma explained. "We're also childhood friends. Race you to the top, Sandra!" Emma went back up into the tree.
"Oh! You're on!" Sandra exclaimed as she followed. Kyoya just stared in amazement. They are the strangest rivals I've ever seen.
"Are we really seeing this?" Kenta asked.
"Yep," Yu answered simply.
"How can rivals get along that well? Kyoya and Gingka don't get along that well," Madoka asked.
"They're different!" Sandra's shout reached their ears.
"Are you two going to stay up there all day or are we going to find a way out of here?" Ryuga asked impatiently.
No answer came. Kyoya could hear the two girls whispering to each other and giggling. What in the world are those two doing?
"I still don't believe what I'm seeing," Madoka said.
"You never do," Alex sighed. "I have never been able to figure them out." She then looked at Kyoya and a teasing smile spread across her face. "Maybe her boyfriend can figure it out."
Kyoya clenched his teeth. This was the reason he didn't want to tell them. "Keep your mouth shut!" he snapped. Alex just laughed. "Sandra, come down here right now!" he called up the tree.
"I don't think you want me too," Sandra called back.
"Why not?" Kyoya asked.
"You won't like how I get down," Sandra answered.
"Just get down here and get Alex to shut her mouth," Kyoya growled.
"Hey! Sandra has a friend who is much worse," Alex defended.
"Ok, but you won't like it!" Sandra agreed laughing. "Let's go, Emma!"
"Kyoya, something tells me you should..." Benkei never got to finish before Sandra and Emma came plummeting to the ground, Sandra landing on Kyoya and Emma landing on Ryuga, knocking the breath out of both of them. "...move," Benkei finished.
"Nice shot, Emma!" Sandra laughed.
"Same to you!" Emma replied.
"What'd you do that for?" Ryuga groaned.
"What do you think, grumpy?" Emma countered.
"Sandra! What was that for?" Kyoya asked as he began to regain his breath.
"For fun, what else?" Sandra answered. "What do you think I used to do to my brother?"
"You have a brother?" Gingka asked.
"Yep, but he can be very annoying. That's why I always would jump out of a tree and land on him. Emma would do it to her two older brothers too," Sandra explained.
"In case you hadn't noticed I'm not your brother," Kyoya growled.
"You're my boyfriend though," Sandra reminded him.
"What excuse do you have?" Ryuga asked Emma in a growl.
"It's called having fun. You might want to try it sometime, so called Dragon Emperor," Emma answered. The two girls then got off the two boys and gave each other a high five. Kyoya got up and brushed dust off of him.
"Can we please just focus on getting out of here?" he asked in frustration.
"How? We don't even know where to look," Ryuga growled.
"Or where we are," Tsubasa added.
Alex looked at Sandra and Emma. "They might," she said. Everyone looked at the two girls.
"Do you?" Kenta asked.
"Sorta kinda," Sandra answered.
"We end up here everytime we battle," Emma added. "Although, if it's your first time coming you have to be careful, because there's so much danger it's not even funny."
"What kind of danger?" Yu asked.
"Evil versions of yourself who are out to destroy you," Sandra answered.
"Say what now?" Madoka asked.
"Did I hear you right?" Gingka asked. "Did you just say evil versions of ourselves that are out to destroy us?"
"You heard right," Emma confirmed.
"And you've...encountered them?" Madoka asked.
"More than once," Sandra replied.
"Remember the last time and how much trouble they gave us?" Emma asked.
"Oh yeah! How could I forget when..." Sandra began.
"Still here you know," Ryuga growled.
"Sorry, grumpy," Emma apologized. Ryuga gave her a glare but didn't say anything.
"So you know how to get out of here?" Alex asked.
"Of course," Emma replied.
"How?" Benkei asked.
"We need to find one of our alternate selves and that person must beat their alternate selves in a battle," Sandra explained.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Kenta exclaimed. "Are you crazy? If they're out to destroy us we'll just be making it easier for them!"
"You'd be surprised at how easy it is to get away from them," Emma said. "They aren't too smart when it comes to preventing their targets from escaping."
"Well, if it's the only way we have to do it," Gingka said.
"We'll just have to do it," Tsubasa agreed.
"Where do we even start looking?" Benkei asked.
"You just choose a direction and go," Emma answered. She then whispered something to Sandra and the two grils smiled as they dashed off.
"What are you two doing?" Kyoya asked.
"Having fun like we used to!" Sandra called.
"Hey! Wait up!" Yu called as the group ran after them.
