Reeeeeeaaaaallllllyyyy sorry this took so long! It's been a busy month with tests and projects and family, etc... But I'll make it up to you. Promise!

Angel's POV

I squinted my eyes from the light. I could barely see who was holding out the lantern. "Well," the voice said, "I wasn't expecting anything like this to be down in the tunnels." The voice was male. Kind of gruffy, but with a kind of shyness at the same time. He turned down the light and we were all able to lower our hands to see him as he walked closer.

"Name's Olkiex." He greeted us, extending one of four large paws our way. All of us were hesitant, but Manny was the first to reach out and shake his hand.

"N-Nice ta meet ya, dude." Manny replied.

Letting go of Manny's hand, Olkiex looked over our unsure faces and said, "Guess you all came in here by accident right?"

"Uh-huh." We all nodded. We were all probably nervous that he might recognize my face, but it was too late for me to hide. Kit, gathering his courage stepped out and said, "There's some kind of trouble causing everyone to go running around the streets. Heh, we just got lucky and found the trap door."

Olkiex nodded, seeming to understand. Way to go Kit! It felt like we were in the clear. There was only a brief second where the light of Olkiex's lantern fell on my face. Kat tried to cover me up, but Olkiex just sweeped Kit and Manny gently to the side.

"Look!" Kat began to stand defensively, still trying to protect me, "She hasn't done anything! Why do you people-" He just lifted her by the back of her shirt like she was a piece of tissue and set her aside.

I tried to look away. Running wasn't an option, and I knew there was no way we could take on Olkiex. Yet I didn't reach for my scanner, instead one hand was clenched over the other as I forced my gaze up to look at him. Olkiex is as big as a bear, so why does he somehow remind me of a hamster? Maybe it was the eyes. They didn't look mean, or suspicious or malevolent in any sense. "I…" I tried to talk for myself. "I- um…"

"You have the same eyes as Tom…" Olkiex said in wonder.

After that I couldn't help looking up at him. I loved being told I look like my Dad. I know I get my dark hair and eyes from him, they're my favorite features about myself. And whenever someone else compliments me about them, I usually blush a little. But this time… someone from Perim had made a comparison of me and my Dad from thirty years ago.

He… "You remember him?" was all I could think of to say.

"Do I!" Olkiex said, "Tom learned these tunnels when he… well, no, I believe he must a have been a bit taller than you." Olkiex moved one of his hands up and down over my head to compare. I put my hands on my hips in slight annoyance, but I ended up smiling when he said, "He used to help Bodal and me in the Arsonal when he…Say, do kids want see it?"

Olkiex guided us through every tunnel until he brought us to the Overworld's Arsonal. BattleGear, all shiny, new and ready for battled was stocked and lined up on the shelves and racks. "Awesome!" I said. My friends all agreed. Dad, this is sooo cool!

We ended up helping Olkiex move and take stock of BattleGear he was behind on. "Bodal's really serious about keeping the Arsonal in perfect order," Olkiex explained. "That's why there's so much to do. I can work on my own inventions in the spare time, but all this new BattleGear just came in so I haven't had any time at all."

I listened as Olkiex talked on and on about working=g in the Arsonal. I didn't tell him about how Dad had already told me a lot, including how annoying and obstinate Bodal could be. Or what a big-mouth the little guy is. However, I didn't interrupt Olkiex's continual praise of Bodal for that. I also didn't want to ask if he knew what the daughter of Tom Majors had done to deserve being on Kiru's Most Wanted List.

Kat and Manny really wanted to complain about moving the heavy creates and counting. But I think the promise of some great scans kept their whining to a minimum. Kit was more compliant, and was able to count the Gear fast. "This is actually almost fun." Kit told me as he and I were working together. "Seeing what goes on behind the scenes, ya know?"

"Not me!" Kat huffed off to the side with a crate of Torweggs. "I'd take being on the front lines over this." Olkies had gone to the back so there wasn't any real need to shush her.

"I'm just getting hungry." Manny came up behind Kat to help her push. "How about after this we take a lunch break and port back to Chaotic?"

"Sure," Kit replied. I caught the hint of smugness in his voice. "But what was that bet we made before coming here? Oh yeah! First to back out loses."

"And the losers have to…." Kat tried to decide. "Buy lunch in the Port Court!"

"But all the food is free." I reminded her.

"It is? Phew." Manny looked relieved. "I was worried about paying the tab."

"And who did you think was paying, dare I ask?" Kit sent a look that Manny was oblivious to.

He just smiled and shrugged. "I figured it was Angel. She's been chugging down enough cola to start a new Cordac Falls."

"Hey!" I like soda, is that a crime!?

Just the same all my 'friends' light-heartedly laughed.

When we finished the work Olkiex gave us, he pointed out what the best weapons in the Arsonal were and let us scan them. We each got two, keeping in our bet to see who went home first. I got a Flux Bauble that I've been wanting for a while and a Destructozooka that our new friend promised had a real kick to it. "Thanks for bringing us here, Olkiex." Manny said, picking his own scan. "No way any other place we woulda picked-"

Olkiex suddenly covered Manny's mouth and shushed all of us. The sound of a door banging could be heard in the other room, followed by an agitated voice. "OLK-E-X! Did you finish restocking? You better have finished, we'll be solons behind at this point!"

Somewhat nasily, but kind of authorative in the same way, Bodal had come back to the Arsonal. And by the look on Olkiex's face, it was sooner than he had expected. We were all spread out around the room, but somehow, Olkiex managed to gather all four of us with his arms, and shove us into a nearby create that was empty. "Just stay here for a few minutes!" he begged before snapping the door to it closed. There was barely enough room between us for breathing let alone protesting.

"Overworlders are crazy." Except for Kat.

We could hear everything going on in the Arsonal, and since I was in the front I could see out of a small hole in the wood. Bodal crossed into the room looking seriously annoyed, Olkiex kept casting nervous glances to our hiding place.

"Ack! Maxxor's mad-hunt has turned the whole city into town of savages! On my way back from the Mugic Academy I was nearly trampled to death, Olkiex. Me! How would this city function if I were lost? Those amateur guards see one human on the streets and they rush at them! Bah! The only consolation is that there are no meddlesome humans in Kiru City."

Ollkiex replied nervously. "U-Um, may if they didn't charge at the humans they might stay and answer some questions about the human Maxxor really wants."

Bodal sorted. "A more tactical plan in theory, Olkiex, but no." He crossed over inspecting some of the gear we had just put away. "You remember how humans are. Unreliable, clumsy, and… and… and, well, you remember."

I saw Olkiex's sympathetic glance through the crate's whole.

He said, more confidently, "I remember Tom. He wasn't anything like that."

In our cramped little space, I felt my friends nudge me in confidence. I smiled and listened as Bodal replied.

"Perhaps he is excused from 'clumsy', but that boy was a troublemaker from the start. Asking questions he shouldn't ask, leaving work around here half-finished: and the consequences that came of it!"

"There were good results in the end." Olkiex replied. "Like when he stopped those Chaotic Players from destroying our Locations. Finding the Danians tunneling near the Arsonal was a close call, I admit. But it did result in a peace between the Tribes in time to stop the M'arillian Invasion. That wouldn't have happened without Tom and the other humans."

Yeah, Olkiex! You rock! Defending my Dad against that stiff, green frog! This is why I love the Overworld Tribe. Something changed in Bodal's face, he looked even more annoyed.

"Well, if you're done reminiscing on useless pieces of the past, and you have restocked all our Battle Gear… unsualy fast I might add." Uh-oh… now Bodal was suspicious.

Olkiex coughed and cleared his throat saying. "The good ol' days cheer me up some and make me work faster. Who knows? Maybe Tom will come back and there will be more fun days to have."

"Of that I most profoundly hope not."

"But if he has a daughter, wouldn't you want to see her too? She could have the same job in the Arsonal, like you gave him!"

Sarcastically, Bodal deadpanned, "Oh, what joy that will bring me that day."

From the back of our crate, Manny whispered, "Yeah, dude, like you're the dream boss of the century."

Kat covered her smile, while Kit shushed them both.

Bodal's head snapped towards our spot. "What was that?"

Olkiex quickly diverted his attention. "Bodal, there's actually something wrong with one of our gear. You need to see it right away!"

"Fixing the Gear is your speacialty, Olkiex." Bodal sighed. "That's why you're still working here."

"No!" At this point, Olkiex grabbed Bodal and started carrying him away. "It's all the water blasters! They are not supposed to shoot green goop!" Bodal protested, but he and Olkiex were already gone.

I told everyone else in the crate, "Coast is clear. I think that's out cue to go."

"Finally!" Kat agreed.

I pushed on the cover. It wouldn't budged. "Guys, help me out." Kit and Kat were right behind me so we all pushed together, but we couldn't get it to move.

"It's stuck!" Kit stated. "We'll have to wait until Olkiex gets back now!"

"You mean: 'Wait until he gets back without Bodal on his back.' Right?" Kat pointed out.

Realizing this, a bit of panic set in. I could feel Kat tensing up, and her breathing became kind of quick. "Um, Kat?" I asked. "Are you by any chance… claustrophobic?"

"Yes!" she said.

Kit began speaking to calm her down. "Kat, we can be in here for hours and have plenty of air. This won't take too long, or you can port out and-" Kit had an epiphany. "That's perfect! That's how we'll get out of this. Kat, you can port out, go back to Chaotic, port here and get us out!"

"Why would I port myself back into a box I just got out of?!" she demanded.

"No, Kat." I clarified for her. "Use your scan of the Arsonal. If the crate is locked you can unlock it or find a way to get us out from the outside."

"Exactly." Said Kit. "Sis, you don't have to be in here if-"

Kat hit the button on her scanner, and was already gone. The crate was a bit roomier now.

"And… she loses." Manny high-fived Kit, now that he could.

But I was confused. "What are you taking… waaaaiiit a second." I realized. "You guys are still going on about that bet?"

Kit responded. "Yep! And Kat just lost. She's probably already realized that by now, so she'll be pretty mad. In the meantime, we should get out of here."

"We're trapped until she comes back remember?" I pointed out.

"Nuh-uh!" said Manny. "Not as of ten seconds ago."

He turned around and put his hands on both sides of the crate's frame. Then he simply nudged it back until the entire side came off and gave way to the light of the Arsonal! "Bada-bing! One escape for three!" Those underhanded geniuses!

Manny stepped aside as Kit, happily, and I, grumbly, stepped out. Once free he put the crate's side back into place. I crossed both my arms and made my most angry glare at those two.

"That was really uncool, guys." I said. "Whatever Kat does to you when she gets back will be well-deserved."

"Ah, c'mon Angel, it was all in good fun." Kit defended, looking as scared as he should be. "It's Kat's fault for falling for it any way."

"She's obviously scared of small spaces, Kit!" I pointed at him. "You're her brother, it was really unfair that you would use that weakness on her."

Manny stood between us and pushed us apart. "Step back everyone. This here's the Angel of Death when she gets mad. Besides, it's all's fair in love and war down here, Angel. You really think Kat wouldn't have used a weakness of Kit's if she hadn't spotted it?"

"Well…" Knowing Kat, 'yes' was the most likely answer. Who am I kidding? She totally would have.

Kit spoke more evenly. "I'll deal with my sister when she gets back. But first we need to hide, those two are coming back."

Manny and both heard the footsteps right then. Since all of the shelves holding BattleGear were spread out around the room we each hid in a spot behind them where Bodal wouldn't see us.

"And why is this crate just left here?" Bodal demanded when he came close. He walked up to the wooden box and tried to open it. He didn't have any more luck than us. "Olkiex! Open this!" he demanded.

"But I, uh-"

"What? What is it now?" Apparently Bodal hadn't found any goo in the BattleGear. Olkiex is really taking hit after hit for us.

"I-I think that one goes into storage! Here, let me carry it."

He began to lift it, when Bodal protested. "No, no! I'm taking stock of everything now! You will open it up and let me look inside this instant!"

Olkiex must have realized when he tried to pick up the crate that it was too light for us to still be inside. He calmly set it back down and easily opened it for Bodal.

"Hmm…" Bodal leaned over, putting his big head into the crate. Meanwhile, OLkiex nervously looked around. Maybe it crossed his mind that we had ported out. But I leaned out and waved to let him know were still here. He visibly gulped.

"Oh, Bodal! I remembered!"

Bodal gave his assistant a stern look. "What?"

"It wasn't the blasters that were malfunctioning, it was-"

Bodal held out a hand to stop him. "Obviously your brain is lagging today. Perhaps we should inspect every, single piece of Gear to make sure you get the proper one this time."

Rude. I glare at Bodal's back. Despite his size, Bodal is perfectly able to jump up and grab Olkiex by the ear and drag him away like an angry principal. Which gave me an idea. Back in elementary school, Manny and I had this one teacher who was always on our backs. Granted, Manny and I did have a bit of a mischievous streak back then. We were cute! We could get away with anything! And the truth was, we didn't get caught for even half the stuff we did.

But anyway: to avoid Mr. Mean, I developed a sneak technique, and it's come in handy in more than one time since then. Looking over, Manny and Kit aren't in my sight. I won't be able to signal them or anything from here. I'll just have to find and get over to one of them on my own. They'll probably be peeking out at where Bodal and Olkiex are, looking for where to go to avoid them. This bet is really causing us more trouble than fun.

Stepping as softly and slowly as I can, I try and match my steps to that of Olkiex's and Bodal's. They'll dismiss the sound of their own feet. I ghost the two of them for a few steps until I am right behind them. Olkiex looks over his shoulder at me. I make a pleading look at him and he nods. "Is that supposed to be there?" he points at a certain Gear.

"Where?" Bodal asks.

Bodal leans over, blocking Bodal's view to the side. "That one, look closer, Bodal. I think something's off about it."

I tip-toe over past them. Manny leans out and sees me, signaling to come over. "I saw what yer doing." He whispered. "Kit made it a little farther down, by the door O-K-X brought us in through."

"Did you say something?" Bodal asked Olkiex.

I covered Manny's mouth with my hand and look over the side.

Olkiex panicked and quickly said, "Just taking notes! Bodal, you really are the master of the Arsonal."

This seemed to brighten Bodal's mood. "Why, thank you. I take precision very seriously. All our warriors depend on this BattleGear to be in top form to defend the Overworld…"

Oh yeah, he definitely a combination of many teachers I've had. Manny rolled his eyes along with me and we both started to get over to Kit. The only problem: Bodal and OLkiex were blocking the way. So with Manny leading the way, we ghosted Bodal and Olkiex. We would mostly stay behind Olkiex, while Bodal talked on and on and on… Every now and again he would stop. Somehow it turned into a weird kind of conga line. Even after we picked up Kit. We would walk and we would freeze. Walk. Than Freeze. Walk. Freeze! Walk, walk. Freeze! With every time us freezing, we would strike a pose.

So there we were, having a nice silent laugh while sneaking out of a weapons hideaway like a bunch of criminals when…

Kat bursts/ports in furious! "YOU SLIMY, UNDERHANDED LITTLE FREAKS! YOU CHEATED!"

And she conveniently landed right in front of where Bodal was walking. She shoved the poor Creture from her path, which was enough to scare Olkiex out of the way to help him. Kat marched right up to us as we backed up into each other. "So, you think that's funny, huh? You back me into a corner and then make me chicken out! Oh, that's rich, bro. Bet you all just had a gooooood laugh over that one!"

Shocked and more than a little unhappy, Bodal took notice of us from his position on the floor. "What the-? Humans!? In my Arsonal?" He shot a dangerous glare at Olkiex who could do nothing but hang his head.

The fact that Bodal wasn't pleased with humans was made even more evident when he ran to one side of the wall and pressed some kind of emergency button. "Bodal, wait!" Olkiex tried to stop him but was too late. In less than a second guards were filling up the room and pointing their weapons at the four of us. We all cast a glare at Kat.

"Oh sure, blame me!"

To which we all said to her. "We do!"

Our scanners were taken from us. Even if we didn't hand them over willingly, no doubt they would have been taken by force. I tried to ask the guards what I had done to deserve a wanted poster, but all they said was: "You will know at the castle."

Olkiex and Bodal followed behind us, one looking greatly agitated and the other looking very worried. Manny stood next to me while Kit and Kat were behind us, none of us saying a word. If I was completely honest, I think all of were feeling insecure at having our scanners so close but out of reach. Kat and Kit were able to at least escape Chaor's castle because they were separated and Kit could sneak in. In hindsight, maybe all of coming together wasn't the best idea. No one else knows we went to Kiru City. Heck, they only other person we know is a Codemaster! I didn't say much, but all the way up I was thinking of why this was happening.

Was it because of the Wrip Wave?

Something I did?

On the other hand, a part of me was glad we were being taken right to the source of all my questions.

Like the guards had said, we were taken right to Maxxor's Castle. To describe it would be to simply say: Magnificent. The high walls had windows that let the sunshine light every corner. Beautiful banners hung on the walls along with pieces of armor and other relics. To me it was real clear that no ordinary warrior could just walk in here, let alone a human. But the real kicker was that we were led directly to the throne room.

"Whoa…" Manny breathed. He and the twins were as equally impressed as I was.

Kit whispered. "Yeah, a lot more light than when we got captured in Chaor's Castle, right Sis?"

Kat folded her arms. "Angel, just so know, Kit is going to be absent from my point of view until I can get my predator vision on."

Kit gulped.

Four guards stood in a line behind each of us. Bodal and Olkiex, who had both followed us here for some reason, stood to the side. Despite how anxious and scared I had felt coming up here, now I was feeling some kind of nostalgic. High walls that glisten off the sun, royal tapestries and even a few old weapons out on display. Dad, I'm really here! Over and over ha had much such a big deal about the capitol city of the Overworld! Now that I'm seeing it, I can see that neither Dad's description or my imagination have done it justice.

From behind one of the hallway doors behind the throne came one of the guards who had brought us in earlier. He stood to the side as another as a much larger Creature walked in behind him. "All hail, the Ruler of the Overworld! Bow before Maxxor!"

And out stepped the very face of Chaotic's noblest Creatures. Maxxor entered the room and all the Overworlders bowed at the waist. Not really sure what to do, I did the same and motioned for my friends to follow. Kat was reluctant until Kit pushed her down. Once Maxxor reached the center of the throne everyone straightened back up.

He looked down at us, carefully surveying each us with a glare until his eyes fell on me. I flinched a little. If I did something so bad, I guess now would be the time to ask about it. But Maxxor's face changed when I looked at him…

His eyes lifted from a glare to… I'm not sure what. It was like he couldn't believe I was there. "Um…" I tried to ask him why we were brought here, the words just couldn't come out of my mouth.

"Wait!" I looked over at the sound of Manny's voice calling out. "Maxxor, Sir, Highness- We don't even know what Angel's done! You can't punish-"

"Be silent you idiotic human!" Bodal shook an angry fist at Manny. "You're addressing the Mightiest Creature in all of Perim!"

"Stand down, Bodal." Maxxor commanded him in an almost threatening tone. He said to Manny, "But it seems as though these children have the wrong impression. Your friend is the real Angel Majors, then?"

Kit said, "You got a pretty accurate wanted poster for someone whose never seen her before."

Kit shivered as Maxxor's gaze fell on him. The King of the Overworld replied, "Frafdo has the keenest eyes. He never forgets an enemy he faces… or a friend who lends who shows their bravery in battle."

In a mixture of shock and relief, I said, "Frafdo?"

"He told me of your actions at Cordac Falls." Maxxor explained. "You acted with courage for someone you didn't even know. And when he told me your name…"

My mind was blank, so at the moment I said, "What about my name?"

To which the leader of the Overworld looked down at me, confused. "Are you not the daughter of Tom Majors? Angel, I knew your father since he was young man. Didn't he ever tell you about Perim?"

Maxxor remembers Dad? It even sounds like he misses him. Ohmygosh, ohmygosh! Now things are really real. Codemaster Crelaan was one thing, but this…! This is beyond anything I even imagined. Dad really did come here! He really did know Maxxor! How do I even respond to all this?

Before even my thoughts could continue Kat broke in. "Wait a sec! If you wanted to see her because of her Dad, why did you have wanted posters, guards chasing us, and then have our scanners taken away to get here?"

Maxxor cast a look towards the guards and at Bodal and Olkiex. He sighed. "Those weren't wanted posters. I've been looking for Angel since I heard she was in Chaotic. But it was impossible to contact her by regular means and her pattern of appearance was unpredictable. Those poster were invitations. Though I suppose my guards and my citizens may have misinterpreted them just as you did."

By the look of all the embarrassed faces in the room, that proved to be the case. However, Bodal was the first to try and defend his actions. "B-But Maxxor! I don't understand why you go through so much effort for a second generation troublemaker! Look at what her father brought about! The Battle at Broken Edge, or the M'arillian invasion? Don't tell me you've forgotten."

"What's he taking about?" I couldn't help, but ask Maxxor. Dad told me about a mugic that made the Overworlders strong ,then left them drained, and he told me how he say the beginning of the M'arillian Invasion. Could he have maybe changed the stories when he told them to me? Why does Bodal hate him?

Maxxor looked straight at Bodal with a stern face. "No, Bodal. Nor have I forgotten the heroism Tom showed in those same events and many others. Though I question if you remember the whole story."

And with that, Bodal shut his mouth!

After that, we got a full tour of 'some' of the Castle. Olkiex stayed with us while Bodal went back to work at the Arsonal. We watched as Maxxor questioned the guards on how they dealt with finding us. Apparently their method of rushing at human had scared quite a few Chaotic Players away from the city. "Or at least from being seen." Manny whispered to me.

Maxxor had followed behind us. Little by little though, he had given lead of the tour over to Olkiex. Somewhere on one of the higher levels he put his giant green hand on my shoulder. "Angel," he said, "I have something in particular I wish for you to see." My friends were so distracted by Olkiex description of the history of the Vlaric Shards that they didn't notice me walking away with Maxxor. Sorry about this guys, but something tells me I better not pass this up.

Maxxor guided me down one of the hallways until we came to a long balcony. "Take a look." He gently nudged me forward. The little excited girl inside of me didn't need to be told twice. I ran straight to the railing. "Woooowwww!" I said, my smile growing wider. The view was the entire layout of Kiru City! The Outer Wall rounded over the horizon into the sunset. The buildings closest to it were also made of the same stone, then the closer the buildings came the more white and majestic they became! There were rounded towers mixed in with flat roofs all glistening from the sun. It was even more beautiful than I had ever heard it described before!

Turning over my shoulder I called back, "Maxxor! This is amazing!"

He chuckled as he came up to stand next to me. "Indeed it is. My people have worked hard to make Kiru City what it is today. The war continues, yet the Overworld Tribe has never been so prosperous as it is now."

It wasn't until he was standing beside that Maxxor spoke again. This time more hesitantly. "I had hoped Tom would be here to see this view with me. Angel… do you know if your father is planning to return to Chaotic?"

His question hit like a runaway train. I almost choked out, I felt tears tugging behind my eyes. But I realized that there was no way Maxxor could possibly know. "Maxxor…" I said slowly. "Tom…My father… He's not alive anymore."

I saw Maxxor natural smile drop and his face go into shock, and then sadness. "Oh…" was all he said. It carried a heavy tone of loss and disappointment. "I… I'm sorry. It's just that… the last time I ever saw Tom, he was a healthy young man. I couldn't imagine..."

Maxxor was Dad's old friend. I remember seeing so many people at his funeral with looks just like Maxxor's right now. He deserved an explanation. "Did you know my Dad was in the Air Force? I think he was inspired by the Overworlders' warrior spirit to defend his own people, plus he always did have a love for flying." Talking about him is pretty easy. Talking about how Dad died… "He was testing a new plane at his base. He was already up in the air, then something happened and they lost contact with him… The engine exploded. The plane crashed… There was barely anything left of him to bury."

My shoulders were shaking despite anything I did to get them to stop, including grabbing them. Was I crying? Mt cheeks left a little cold and wet. I didn't want to cry. What helped me most, was a big, warm hand on my shoulder. I looked at Maxxor, he was telling me I didn't have to explain anymore. "I'm afraid he's not coming." I finished.

"THAT SUCKS!" We heard from inside the castle. We both looked to see my friends arguing with Olkiex trying to mediate between them. The one who had shouted was Manny. "Kat, the loser shouldn't allowed to make the rules!

"Hey! The bet was MY idea. And since no one else asked, I decide that the loser gets whatever they want to order in Chaotic for a month!"

Kit said, "Kat just be a good loser for once! You've used my fear to win contests hundreds of times. You went back first, there's no arguing that."

Oddly enough, I started laughing. Maxxor now looked down at me like I was some kind of oddity. "Excuse me," I said with a giggle. "I think Olkiex is gonna need some backup." I ran over to get my friends to calm down. I love these guys.

No One' POV

As Maxxor looked at the back of Tom's daughter running off to stop her (strangely familiar) friends from wreaking havoc in his castle, he couldn't help but smile with a little pride. Angel was loyal, a bit shy, brave, compassionate and had a love for adventure. "Just like Tom." He said. Maxxor knew then that having her around was going to bring as much good to the Overworld as it did when Tom was a boy. "It's about time we had another troublemaker around here."

A/N: Just as promised: an explanation about Tom...

But I'll have the next chapter up by Friday or Saturday this week! If you're still reading, please review, it really helps!
