Maybe with Furori taken care of and Obleak and Tianhe-2 back to their normal selves, things can get back to normal. It was fun having Raven, Joshua, and of course Marshadow around, but Sun Dragon needed to think of Scorpius and his condition.

Sun Dragon thought back to that first fight with Obleak and Tianhe-2 and what Scorpius had said.

Scorpius(flashback): Ah what luck! Getting both Drobot and Sprocket to help me fix my ship! (Cackles maniacally)

What did he mean by that? Surely not one of the Anti-claw ships that brought Obleak and Tianhe-2; they were in good condition. Did he mean upgrading the ships? Maybe. Then Sun Dragon thought back to that book that fell on him out of the blue. He remembered seeing a picture of a portrait inside the book of a powerful warship called the Dark Dragonslayer that belonged to the Anti-claws many ages ago. No... Scorpius didn't mean that ship, did he? No no... the ship was destroyed by the Arkeans; history says so. Though... written history could be wrong-

Sun Dragon heard a knock on his door, waking him from his deep thoughts.

Sun Dragon: Yes?
Daphne: Sunny, we're needed for a mission. Game?
Sun Dragon: Always Daphne!
Daphne: Oh, and I think we have a new member.
Sun Dragon: Really? Well, can't wait to see them! Anyone I know?

Mission: Scorpius, the Skylanders latest dragonic villian, is believed to have been spotted near one of Kaos's warehouses. Search the surrounding area to see if this is true. If Kaos's forces find you, send a signal flare and the second team will assist.
Location: Kaos's Warehouse
Jobs:
Mixcoatl: Leader of team
SpringCarrier: Intellectual/Elemental advantage
Daphne: Stealth/Offensive
Sun Dragon: Offensive/Experience with Scorpius
Xilas: Offensive/Some elemental advantage

Xilas: Oh boy! My first real mission!😀 Xilas wants to beat trolls to a pulp!... Are we there yet?
Mixcoatl: No.
Xilas: ...Are we there yet?
Daphne: No.
Xilas: ...Are we-
SpringCarrier: I calculate we will arrive at our destination in... 30 minutes and 25 seconds given our current speed and direction.
Xilas: ...Oh.... Well then GO FASTER!
Sharpfin: Don't get your knickers in a twist mate. Yeesh, where'd you meet this fellow anyway?
Sun Dragon: Pegaslash's team "found" him during their mission at General Robot's warehouse. They thought they should take him to the Academy so he could get cleaned up and well fed and, well, he signed up to be a Skylander.
Sharpfin: Well, he sure acts like one I'll give him that!
Xilas: GOTTA GO FASTER FASTER FASTER!
Sun Dragon: *sigh* Classic Xilas he is. Sharpfin, can you tell us who the second team is?
Sharpfin: 'Fraid I can't lad. All I know about 'em is that they're on Flynn's ship and that I heard they had a newbie too. They really need to fix that one a these days.
Sun Dragon: Yes, it is rather stressful not knowing who the ally is sometimes.
Sharpfin: I meant Flynn's ship. He done broke it again and I'm surprised it's still running now.
Mixcoatl: No surprize there.😒

Sun Dragon was worried. He wanted to be Fin-Point's friend and all, but after what happened after his first mission Sun Dragon didn't want Fin-Point to be mad at him again. He almost hoped the second team wasn't Fin-Point's.

Almost.

They landed at the far end of the island that Kaos's Warehouse was located. They needed to keep a low profile to avoid conflict; at least until if and when they find Scorpius. Was he even here? Likely, since they had learned Scorpius was with Kaos not too long ago. They hoped Scorpius was in a good mood today if they find him.

Meanwhile

Scorpius: So Kaos, I took a private tour of your warehouse, and it seems well equipped and defended. The supplies here are being well kept if I say so myself.
Kaos(through monitor): Why thank yo Scorpius. Glad you approve. Any ideas on how we can replace Obleak and Tianhe?
Scorpius: Tianhe-2 Kaos.
Kaos(through monitor): Whatever.
Scorpius: Well, I think I do Kaos. We recently captured this... thing, and I think it will do a good job for us once we convince it to join us.
Kaos(through monitor): Eh? You make it sound as if this "thing" is alive.
Scorpius: We... we don't know for sure at the moment Kaos. It's one of those mysterious creatures made entirely of water. We'll have to do more tests on it before we can be sure if it'll be of some use to us though. I'll contact you when we finish.
Kaos(through monitor): Do that Scorpius! And do it right this time! That is... if you want the Dark Dragonlance-
Scorpius: Dark DragonSLAYER, Kaos.😡
Kaos(through monitor): Whatever- You'll do the job if you want the warship repaired Scorpius.

The monitor then went black, signaling that Kaos had ended the communication. Scorpius sighed and groaned. Sometimes he wondered how Kaos could get his own name right. Actually, that probably explains the "K" in Kaos's name. He just wanted the Dark Dragonslayer fixed and updated so that he could rule Dragon's Peak. Was that really so much to ask? Whatever. If this creature or whatever it is proves useless, he had another plan up his scales that Kaos will surely-

Jagged: SCORPIUS!
Scorpius: Jagged? What is it?
Jagged: Th-that thing we caught? It's trying to get away!
Scorpius: 😲What?! We put that thing in a jar!
Jagged: I know! It's still trying to get away!
Scorpius: Well what are we standing around for?!

Jagged immediately lead Scorpius to where the thing ws seen last, and sure enough despite being contained in a jar, it still tried to escape! Scorpius only saw it for a few seconds before it rolled off a ledge before hearing a shattering glass sound. When they looked at the mess, the creature inside had already left. Scorpius was furious.

Scorpius: FIND IT! Search the whole facility! Don't rest until you find that thing! *growls*😠

Later

It's been an hour and no sign of Scorpius. Sun Dragon and the rest of the team were getting worried. The trolls patrolling the area have increased in number and are apparently looking for something.

Daphne: You don't think the other team was captured, do you?😯
SpringCarrier: There is always the possibility of such Daphne. It's a risk we must take when dealing with Kaos.
Mixcoatl: I doubt they were captured personally. I'm sure that the Senseis would've sent a professional level team to help us in the event of encountering Scorpius.
Sun Dragon: I say we try to get back to Sharpfin and make a new plan as to our approach to the increasing trolls.
Xilas: And I say we SMASH THEM!
Everyone: SSSHHHH!
Daphne: We don't want them finding us Xilas! Keep the enthusiasm down!
Xilas: Oh😓... sorry. *clears throat* I say we smash them.
Mixcoatl: *sigh* That's better. No offense but I agree most with Sunny's idea. SpringCarrier?
SpringCarrier: I calculate that heading back may pose an obstacle to us. The troll guards that were stationed back the way we came in would have likely increased in number as well.
Daphne: What about waiting for the other team to reach us?
SpringCarrier: Assuming they haven't been captured as of yet, that would make an excellent option. But if we've no clue as to their current status, then we may be forced to pursue a different course of action.
Xilas: ... Oh! Oh! Pick me! Pick me!😃
Mixcoatl: ...What Xilas?
Xilas: Can we smash them?
SpringCarrier: ...Processing... Calculating... Perhaps a surprise attack onto one of the main lookouts will detour the enemy long enough to allow us time and flexibility to track the other team, Scorpius, or a way back to Sharpfin.
Xilas: All right! Let's do this!
SpringCarrier: It must be a calculated offensive strike onto the north-west tower. I estimate we'll have a long enough period of time to scan the area for any one of our desired targets.
Mixcoatl: Only one?
SpringCarrier: Depends on the amount of time it takes for the other trolls to realize we are in the lookout tower. I suggest looking for the other team.
Daphne: I agree. The bigger our number the more capable we will be of handling the trolls.
Xilas: Ok ok! Now let's roll like rocks already!
Sun Dragon: Thats "rock and roll" Xilas.
SpringCarrier: I always thought it was more like "locked and loaded".
Mixcoatl: Focus people! Let's move it and find the other team!

So was the plan set. They managed to sneak by to the north-west tower

They didn't know they were being followed by... something.

The trolls in the tower were busy looking out for something or possible intruders. They were unaware of the door harshly opening, but they did hear a chain rattle and looked up.

Xilas: Yo guys, what's up? Hope ya like rock music, 'cause I'm fixing to make ya dance! NOW!

The ensuing scuffle was relatively quick as Xilas smashed just about everything in the room with his boulder-and-chain. Just how does he manage to drag that thing around any way?

Xilas: Ok buds, dumb trolls are taken care of! 😆
Mixcoatl: Nice work X, now let's see if the other team is alright before some more trolls show up.
Sun Dragon: I'll keep an eye out for Scorpius. He's the reason we're here after all.
Daphne: Oh! Good idea! Maybe I'll look to see if there's a way to Sharpfin from here while we're at it!
Mixcoatl: Spring, any sign of tge other team?
SpringCarrier: No, not yet. All I see are trolls.
Mixcoatl: Well keep searching. We haven't much time.

As they continued to search for the other team and Scorpius, one of the supposedly unconscious trolls in the room was able to flip some switch before blacking out, sounding some kind of alarm in the tower.

Xilas: C**p! We gotta book it!
Daphne: What about the other team?
Mixcoatl: *growls* We'll have to do without. Everyone, let's-
Sun Dragon: Scorpius incoming at 6'o clock!

Suddenly the all too familiar dragon crashed through the stone wall, ramming everyone except Xilas out through the other side of the tower and to the ground. Xilas looked down the height and saw the gang trapped below. He was fixing to jump out and attack Scorpius from above but then something grabbed Xilas from behind and dragged him back into the room.

The gang was barely aware if what just happened when Sun Dragon felt himself being lifted by the neck and heard a familiar voice.

Scorpius: *chuckle* Sooo... You tried to infiltrate Kaos's Warehouse. Nice try, but the trolls here are just a little bit smarter then to just let you come in and thrash everyone around.
Mixcoatl: *groan* You... You let go of Sun Dragon right now you...
Scorpius: Oooo, I'm so scared! What'cha gonna do huh? Silly serpent. I'm not gonna just let ya'll ruin this for me. You already took two of Kaos's best minions from us, so it's only fair I take one or two of you from ya. Now, either you all go ahead and run or I'm giving it to Mr.Sunshine right here. Right across the throat if ya like!😈
Daphne: No!

Daphne tried to jump Scorpius, but some Anti-claw trolls lassoed her throat and kept her from moving any further. Some other trolls grabbed Mixcoatl and SpringCarrier to keep them from doing the same.

Scorpius: Ah ah ah. You didn't say the magic word. Now, I'm still willing to let ya'll go now if you accept the fact I've captured one of you fair and square.
Sun Dragon: *groan* ...Do as he s-says... Go...
Mixcoatl: No! We're not leaving you! SpringCarrier, reactivate already!
SpringCarrier: Malfunction... Malfunction... Recalibrating...
Scorpius: Going once...
Sun Dragon: Go... Please...
Daphne: *groans* Come on! Something grow! *groans*
Scorpius: Going twice...

The situation seemed hopeless. Sun Dragon in Scorpius's claws, SpringCarrier trying to organize himself after the surprise attack, and Xilas not in sight. Scorpius was about to do the unthinkable when suddenly...

???: (mechanical roar)!!!
Scorpius: 😐The H*ll was that-

Suddenly the wall near them smashed wide open. When the dust cleared, Scorpius was shocked to see a massive robot had done the deed. It had tank tracks for "legs", a stick body of sorts, a big bear-like mechanical head, and two "arms" that were big wrecking balls with spikes. It also had a... "glossy" look to it, like the skin was just lightly covered by water.

Scorpius ordered all the trolls to attack it, but the machine wsable to knock all of them off their feet, if not send them into the sky. Not even the Chompybots that were called couldn't stop it. The robot attacked Scorpius himself next, and though he put up a good fight, Scorpius eventually decided to save Sunny for another day.

Scorpius: Fine! Keep the oriental! I'm not sticking around to deal with this thing!😡
Sun Dragon: *groans* S-scorpius! Wait-

But it was too late. As quickly as he came, Scorpius flew off and disappeared.

The robot roared in dominance before something strange happened. The robot suddenly became a whirling mass of water! It then shot out some smaller robot towards the baffled team. The robot appeared undamaged and functioning. It looked kinda similar to Drill Sergeant since it had drills for hands, though they were smaller and the arms connecting them looked more flexible then Drill's. That was really the only similarity. The robot was a gray/silver color, had tank tracks, and looked like it had an old fashioned security camera for its head.

Then the mass of water shot out another something. It was Xilas! He tumbled to the ground as the water shot out his boulder-and-chain beside him. His eyes were spinning around like a dizzy cartoon character as he tried to stand up.

Mixcoatl: Xilas! What happened!?
Xilas: Oooye... I'm a feeling a little disori- dis ora- disoro-... I'm a light headed. (Falls down to his face)

The mass of water then took another shape. Something similar to EVE from Wall-E actually. It was still made of water visibly, but now it also had yellow eyes and watery horns. It levitated in mid-air as it looked questionably at Sun Dragon and the team.

???: (strange sounds that kinda sound like whales singing high pitched)
Daphne: 😕Um... I think it's talking to us...
SpringCarrier: Rebooting... What transpired during my malfunction? Hm? Camera Shy?
Camera Shy: (beeping noises) Spring? What happened?
Mixcoatl: You're asking us? We're as confused as you.
Sun Dragon: I'm sorry, but I believe we haven't met?
SpringCarrier: Sun Dragon, this is Camera Shy. Camera Shy, this is Sun Dragon. Me and Camera Shy occupy the same Tech class you see.
Daphne: Nice to meet you. Um, I'm guessing you were with the other team?
Camera Shy: Oh, undeniably. I was scouting out sector 258 when within seconds I was blacked out. Next known recording later, here I am.
Daphne: Wow. Yeah, Spring shares a class with this robot alright.
???: (high pitched noises, again like a whale singing)
Xilas: *groans* (shakes head) ...😨Hey! Watch out!

The gang turned and saw that though Scorpius was gone, the trolls weren't giving up! They were about to attack when something from behind the gang jumped out and slammed the ground with its fist, raising a huge tidal wave out of nowhere and launching it at the trolls.

???: Camera Shy, functioning properly?
Camera Shy: Affirmative Shorebreaker! Apologies for the delay.
Shorebreaker: At least we were able to track you down with that tracking beacon of yours. Afternoon Mixcoatl.
Mixcoatl: Well well, Shorebreaker. Good to see you. Sunny, I think you'll like this team.
Shorebreaker: Speaking of which, they be here directly- Watch it!

Another set of trolls tried to attack the gang, but two more individuals showed to fight them. One was an armadillo like creature that was obviously of the Fire element since he literally blazed into the fight. The other was a... skeletal horse? With ghost wings and mane and tail. Oh, and ghostly hooves too apparently.

Shorebreaker: Emberdillo, Skele-Colt, what took you so long?
Skele-Colt: Ah, did ya miss us? I think he missed us. I'm so "hooved" by it. Heha heha! *winnies*😂
Emberdillo: Oh Colt, it's really your kind that makes people "fear the reaper". *snickers* Oh hey, you must be Mixcoatl right? Emberdillo here, on a roll!😉
Mixcoatl: Ah so you're the newbie of the team I heard about! Nice to meet ya.
???: (strange sounds)
Shorebreaker: 😮Ah... fascinating.
Daphne: Hey Shore? Got any idea what this thing-
Shorebreaker: "It" is a she Daphne, and she refers to Vilay.
Xilas: You speak her language!? Oh wait... you're both made a water. I get it.😅
Vilay: (strange sounds)
Shorebreaker: Huh. She states she was captured by Scorpius's forces yesterday and was brought here. She managed to escape. She also apologizes to you about what happened with Camera Shy and Xilas since it was the "only way she could help". Whatever it is she's referring to. (?)
Sun Dragon: Oh! So you can fuse with others? Is that what she's saying?
Vilay: (strange sounds)
Shorebreaker: That's right. She hopes you aren't mad at her since she was only trying to help.
Xilas: Well... Ok! You're alright raindrop! You're cool!👍😆
Daphne: So sorry Scorpius caught you Vilay! You sure he didn't hurt you?
???: Is it really all that surprising that Scorpius of all people would kidnap someone? A mass of water though? Wow... he's really stooping low this time... Not that I'm surprised by that either...😒

Sun Dragon recognized that voice. He knew only one person with that much of a monotone and deary voice. He looked to see none other then Emolition sitting in the gap in the wall Vilay had crashed through.

Skele-Colt: 'Bout time ya caught up with us Emo! Ya missed on all the fun!
Emolition: Such a pity😒... Sun, good to see you here, I guess...
Sun Dragon: Good to see you too Emolition. You're with this group?
Emolition: Unfortunately yes... Master Eon thought it would help me "express" more if I spent more energy, but that's not really working...😑
Skele-Colt: Oh come on Emo! Let's not wallow in despair here! Heha heha! 
Emolition: ...*sigh* Why me?...
Skele-Colt: Oh hey, more trolls!
Xilas: Let's smash em!
Emberdillo: All right! Hit me with your best shot!

Skele-Colt, Xilas, and Emberdillo were left to fighting the rest of the trolls. Skele-Colt would kick a troll with his back feet towards Emberdillo, who'd then swipe at the troll with a fiery set of claws, then Xilas would swing his boulder-and-chain like a baseball bat at the poor troll and send him off. After most of the trolls were beaten, the rest of them decided to run away while they had the chance, handing the victory to the cadets!

Skele-Colt: Alright! *winnies* Score one for the home team!
Emberdillo: Now that's how we roll!
Xilas: And rock! RIKI TIKI TAVI MY DUDES!
Emolition: Stop it... your screams are hurting my head...
Shorebreaker: ...😧Did anyone remember what I said last time we were on a mission like this?
Xilas: ...I only met ya today so...
Emberdillo: And I'm the newbie boss. So...
Emolition: *sigh* Christ. Here we go with this again...
Shorebreaker: Did anyone remember that we could've caught and questioned any of the trolls for clues as to Scorpius and Kaos's future plans!?😡
Skele-Colt: ... (taps his hoove to the ground twice)
Shorebreaker: I hope that's either you saying yes or you tapping out your own IQ Colt.😡
Camera Shy: (beeping noises) Where is Wheatney's location? Isn't she with us?
Sun Dragon: There's more of you?
Emberdillo: Hey that's right. Where is she?
Skele-Colt: Hey Emo! You're suppose to keep an eye on your girlfriend remember!?
Emolition: 😑... Not my girlfriend... Wheatney is not my girlfriend... She just hopelessly tries to make me feel emotion like my sister that's all...
Shorebreaker: Oye. Right, spread out and-
Wheatney: *whistles* Hey! There ya'll are! Shore, got a little something for ya partner!

Sun Dragon looked and saw who could best be described as not only a living scarecrow, but the tallest cadet he's seen! She was taller then Emolition, and he was 4-5ft tall! She had light orange hair that just covered her eyes, torn clothes like a scarecrow, and a large green hat with a piece of a wheat plant strapped to it. Wait... Wheat. Wheatney. It's a joke off her farmer lifestyle obviously. Makes sense now. She also carried a farmer's pitchfork. And she had brought a... bale of hay? Oh wait. It had a troll trapped in it. Got it.

Troll: Help! HELP!
Wheatney: You're welcome Shore. Howdy Mixy! Glad to see ya'll all right.
Mixcoatl: There you are Wheatney! We were starting to get worried.
Wheatney: Hmph. You cowboys still think this little old girl can't take care of herself?
Sun Dragon: LITTLE?! You're like 5-6ft tall!
Wheatney: 5 foot 2 specifically partner.
Emolition: Which is all the more surprising considering Wheatney is a gnome.
Sun Dragon: A GNOME?! 😲
Wheatney: *nervously chuckle* So what if I'm taller then most? Part of being me. And speaking of which-
Emolition: Oh God no, count me out. You know it's pointless for you to- (mumbling)
Wheatney: Does my favorite elf boy love hugs? Yes he does yes he does!😁
Emolition: (shuffles uncomfortably) Wheatney? Can you please stop smothering my face into the area just above your chest? Normally I'd say it's annoying and distracting but I-
Wheatney: Ah hush and just take it like a man partner! 😊
Skele-Colt: Awww! 🎶Wheatney and Emo sitting in a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N-G! Heha heha!
Emolition: *groans* And now my head hurts...😑

As much as Sun hated to see Emolition practically being humiliated in front of everyone, he couldn't help but smile out of the fact that Wheatney was being real sweet to Emolition. Heck, one could say that they did kinda made a cute couple. Meanwhile Shorebreaker and Mixcoatl were trying to get some information out of the troll Wheatney caught, but they weren't getting anywhere outside name, rank, and birthday.

Troll: I will never betray my boss! No matter how much you torture me!
Mixcoatl: Man, we ain't gonna hurt you! Just tell us what you know Scorpius may be up to and we'll let you go.
Camera Shy: Listen, I remember what is was like when I worked at the Troll Security where Kaos's shield generator was being kept and believe me, Kaos is not the kind of guy you want to work for even if he is offering you and the rest of the trolls all the rewards in Skylands. It's all lies. I know you're just scared that Kaos will punish you if you give us the information we need, but I promise we can protect you. Please.
Troll: ...😒...
Shorebreaker: *sigh* Fine. Then we'll have to use our head hypnotist to get our answers out of you.
Emberdillo: 😮 We have a hypnotist? Groovy! But uh... who is it?

Shorebreaker turned around and looked right at his "hypnotist". Emberdillo looked and was kinda shocked. Meanwhile Emolition had finally been let go from Wheatney's grip and was starting to walk off in the direction of Flynn's ship when...

Shorebreaker: Emolition! Where are you going?
Emolition: Need... rest...
Shorebreaker: After you get the answers we need out of this troll.
Emberdillo: 😕 HE'S your hypnotist?!
Sun Dragon: Emolition? A hypnotist? I thought you were an empath?
Emolition: *groans* I am... but I know how to hypnotize people... to an extent...
Daphne: Plus you've seen him put people into trances before Sunny. Is it that surprising?
Shorebreaker: So Emolition. Up for it?
Emolition: 😑*groans* ... Doooo I haaaave to? My head hurts... And you know wh-
Shorebreaker: Do this one thing and We'll let you sleep on the way back to the Academy.
Emolition: ....😧.... Fine....

He turned on his heels and walked straight for the troll, his ball-and-chain clanking and rattling behind him. Everyone gave him a few feet space as he was only inchs from the troll. He then bent down, and took hold of the chain that connected him to the wrecking ball that was like his curse. Naturally this was starting to unsettle Sunny and Emberdillo, and of course the troll.

Troll: N-no torture huh?! Well what's this?!
Emolition: Hush... this won't hurt... you'll probably not even remember this at all...
Troll: No! Oh lord no! Help!
Emolition: Be silent... Relax... Watch my movements, and calm your mind...

Emolition's eyes widened like they did for Voltair and Terra, but there wasn't an aura around him like last time. Instead he started swinging his ball-and-chain like a watch, back and forth, back and forth, back... and forth... back... and forth...

Sun Dragon was starting to see where the whole hypnosis idea came from.

At first the troll resisted, but eventually the inevitable happened and he started falling for the trance, watching as the ball went back and for- okay you get the idea. Soon the world seemed to be slowing to a near halt, and then... nothing...

Emolition: Right... What do you want to know?
Shorebreaker: If he knows anything about what Scorpius could be up to.
Emolition: Right... So, you hear me?
Troll: 😴 Yes...
Emolition: Good... Now, think hard and carefully now as I ask of you these inquiries... Remember the creature Scorpius?
Troll: 😴... yes... very bossy...
Emolition: I know... now, have you ever overheard him speak of future plans? Anything that involves working with Kaos?
Troll: 😴 He... he often spoke of... repairing that old warship... but he hasn't been able... to do much in repairs...
Mixcoatl: Warship? What warship!?
Sun Dragon: 😨 Oh Ancients... I think I might know what he's talking about... I can show you later!
Shorebreaker: Alright. See if there's anything else Emolition.
Emolition: Ok... That's good... Do you remember anything else Scorpius spoke of?
Troll: 😴 He... I think he said something... about chosen warriors... or something like that...
Emolition: Can you remember anything else about these "chosen warriors"? Please...
Troll: 😴... (shakes head slightly)
Emolition: *sigh* He doesn't know anymore about that.
Camera Shy: We may need to see if we can find anything on that.
SpringCarrier: I agree. Though it will take time considering the subject isn't very specific.
Skele-Colt: Now make him cluck like a chicken and hop like a rabbit! Heha heha!!!
Emolition: Back off! This is a delicate process and your infernal clamoring could snap him out😠! And besides I can only make him do so much! God, why can't you act mature for one moment you little-

Emolition suddenly realized what he was saying. He breathed in deeply several times before resuming his usual emotionless state. Skele-Colt was stunned. Then again so was a majority of the others. Did Emolition... show anger?!

Emolition: *groans loudly* Please... can we stop now Shore? M-my head...
Shorebreaker: Yes yes, of course. We can stop now. I imagine Sharpfin and Flynn are starting to worry of us anyway. You may stop. Snap him out of it.
Emolition: *groans loudly* ...You've done good friend. Now, awaken... and feel relieved it is over... n-now... Awaken! (Snaps fingers)
Troll: (shakes head) Wh-what happened?
Emolition: *groans loudly* Nothing... I-it's out of your hands now... *Whimpers*
Sun Dragon:My lord, what's wrong Emolition!?
Emolition: N-nothing.... Just... too much... (starts falling over)
Wheatney: Whoa partner! I got ya! I got ya.
Sun Dragon: 😨 L-let me help here. *grunts* We got you Emolition.
Emberdillo: 😕 Does... Does this usually happen?
Shorebreaker: No no. This is really a rare occurrence. Emolition's never really explained it. Take the troll with us. The Senseis will take it from there. Come on.

Later

They decided to take Flynn's ship since it was bigger. Sharpfin was just ahead of them. Sun Dragon was so worried for Emolition. What was that all about?! He was supposed to be emotionless right?! He sounded annoyed and angered! That sure seemed emotional for someone so "emotionless". Sun Dragon asked around, but no one knew what had happened. No one except Wheatney, since she was busy tending to Emolition himself. Sun Dragon went down to where Emolition was resting and found the door to the room open. He found Wheatney laying next to Emolition, who was under two layers of covers and asleep from the looks of it. Sunny lightly knocked on the doorframe and Wheatney looked to see him.

Sun Dragon: *whispering* Hey. How is he?
Wheatney: Oh howdy sunshine. You don't have to whisper he sleeps like a log. He's well now.
Sun Dragon: I see. Um, any-
Wheatney: What happened? Hm. His roommate once told me something real confusing about it.
Sun Dragon: Try me. Us orientals are knowledgeable in terms of "riddles".
Wheatney: Well, she told me that "though he can't feel emotion, he can still show it. But as part of his punishment, if and when he does show it, it pains him". I don't get it. But then it was always a farmer's ways I am familiar with mostly.
Sun Dragon: ...That... is a tough one... Well, it's better then nothing I suppose. Known him long?
Wheatney: About as long as he was with the team. That's about... two years now.
Sun Dragon: Huh? But didn't his sister come here only a few months ago?
Wheatney: Emolition was here before his sister. I heard his family was real undecided about the idea until they finally figured he'd get some actual help if he was with us. And I hear it was an even harder to let go of their little girl.
Sun Dragon: Oh. (Nods) I can understand. Tell me, everyone seems to have had this happen before. Is that true?
Wheatney: Mmm, it's happened a few times including today. It rarely happens. Trust me, he'll be fine now. Don't worry.
Sun Dragon: Well... I'll try. I guess I'll leave you with him. He seems to trust you.
Wheatney: Heh, I wish. He just won't open up to me. I just don't get it.
Sun Dragon: Well, he's been through a lot I imagine. Well, guess I'll see if we're any closer to the Academy.
Wheatney: Hey! Real quick, can I ask ya something partner?
Sun Dragon: Of course. What?
Wheatney: Well, have you actually met Emolition's little sis? It sounds silly, but I haven't had a chance to actually meet her yet. I've seen her plenty. Something just happens that keeps me from really getting to know her.
Sun Dragon: Oh. Yeah i know her well. She's a sweetheart of a child. Real shy, but a purity of innocence I'd say. She worries ever so for Emolition. You'd like her, I can tell.
Wheatney: So I gather. Think maybe you could introduce me sometime? I'd ask Emolition but I just keep forgetting to ask, and plus I don't see him so often between classes unless it's days like today.
Sun Dragon: I'd be glad to introduce you😊. I'll think of something surely.
Wheatney: Great! Look forward to it partner! Um, I don't think I ever caught your name.
