Hey guys, sorry that this chapter took so long! I could spend ages typing out exactly why, but then this note would be far larger than the actual chapter. So, enjoy! More chapters to come soon!

The sun crept through the windows, flooding the palace with a golden light. Athena woke up, she looked at her daughter who was fast asleep. She stroked Knisa's long, chocolate brown hair before sitting up. A pile of clean clothes was sat at the bottom of the beds, each pile had a name tag, there was one pile for each of them. Athena stood up and proceeded to change into the clothes that had been left for her, she watched both Knisa and Trucy sleep as she changed. Her thoughts wandered to home, Phoenix, Apollo and everyone else back there.

Gumshoe examined the blade that was currently lodged in the wall of the Wright Anything Agency. A sadness filled him that he'd never experienced before. It was confusing, the disappearance of those who so often tore his investigations apart and ruined his career record had left him feeling sad. The truth was, that he considered the Wright Anything Agency crew his friends and now they'd all vanished. The circular saw that he was currently investigating had a slight irridescent glow about it, just like the saw that was in the murder trial a few months back.

"Get this analysed! Now!" Gumshoe called "Keep me updated on the findings!" A few officers slipped on some latex gloves and removed the blade from the wall, before placing it inside a small silver case and taking it off for analysis. "Just hang on guys" he said to the small crack that the blade had left in the wall "I'm coming to get ya back."

When Athena, Trucy and Knisa walked into the main hall of the Palace, everyone else seemed to be up and preparing for... Something. The three were changed into the clothes that had been left for them, which consisted of a short sleeved T-shirt, a pair of Leggings and a hooded Jacket. They walked over to where everyone was gathered.

"What's going on?" Athena asked curiously, to no-one in particular

"Training" Samus replied

"What for?" Athena asked

Samus hesitated "A fight... Of sorts..." She said.

Before anything else could be said, Palutena walked over to Samus "Pit's going to stay here" she announced "he wants to stay with Poppy"

Samus nodded "that's understandable" she said.

Just then a smallish aircraft pulled up by the opening in the room "All aboard!" Palutena called "it's training time."

Pit woke later than usual, he guessed it might have had something to do with the fact that he hadn't been sleeping properly so that he could watch over Poppy. He got up from the camp he'd made by Poppy's bed, he wanted nothing more than for her to wake, but at the same time the idea of her waking made him slightly nervous. He walked to the window and looked out over the White Sea of fluffy clouds which shone proudly in the bright beams of morning sunshine.

A short while later movement came from where Poppy was lying, along with some mumbling noises. Pit turned to look at his sister who had sat up and was looking around the room confusedly. Pit walked over to her, she looked at him inquisitively. "The palace of Skyworld" Pint said softly, answering her question. "How are you feeling?" He asked, his voice remained soft but occasionally cracked betraying his true feelings of excitement, nervousness, concern, happiness and a few others as well.

"Alright thanks" she replied "a little confused though..." She paused "Where's Kamek?" She asked worriedly, an urgency present in her voice.

"Kamek?" Pit asked, he'd heard the name before but he couldn't remember where.

"Yes, Kamek" Poppy replied.

"I'm not sure" Pit admitted, he figured he'd find out who this Kamek was later, "but he's not here, so don't worry" he said reassuringly.

Poppy sighed with relief.

Pit felt slightly awkward, unsure of what to say. Did she know that they were siblings? Probably not, but how could he raise the subject? "do you want to see what skyworld looks like outside?" He asked

Poppy nodded eagerly.

Pit helped her out of bed and took her over to the window on the far side of the room.

Poppy gasped as they looked out at the magnificent buildings placed on islands of strong yet beautiful stone, which floated on the vast sea of clouds which were fluffy and pure white.

"It's beautiful!" she exclaimed.

Pit nodded, smiling slightly "Yeah it is" he agreed, after a short pause he turned to look at Poppy, "I'm Pit by the way" he said, introducing himself.

"Poppy" she replied.

The two shared a brief glance, before turning back to the window. "I think you should meet Palutena" Pit said

"Palutena?" Poppy asked

"Yeah, she's like the boss around here, don't worry though, she's friendly." Pit replied

"Ok, sounds like a plan"

Pit nodded "let's go find her" he said and the two walked out of the room, heading towards the main hall of the palace.
