Oh, I'm so glad you came around Mrs. Sage, custodians are too weak for anybody. I knew you were stronger than you seemed.
Always, Sir Grease. They were too weak for me, way, way too weak.
Agreed, Miss, very much agreed.
Those two kids, the cheetah and the raccoon, almost caught me installing the portal behind the creek to get here.
Weaklings. Like they could stop us.
What can I do, Sir?
I would not mind if you installed a portal in Jamaa to our phantom cage, July. Then we could send through phantoms..
Yes sir, anything Sir Grease.
The statue had been moved, so we appeared outside of a restaurant. "We have to find the others." I said. "THE WORLD!" Rufus said, rolling in the grass. "We may have to find their scent then follow it." Lime said, looking around. After Rufus had realized we had work to do, we started off to find any trace of the patrols. "Found a scent like Sunrise!" Lime said. Even though Sunrise wasn't the head of our patrol, it was better than nothing.
Listen up, Listen up! I got rid of Lemon and Lime!
Hey, I helped too!
Quiet Flick! So now that we have rid the two best warriors, we will move on to the rest.
What do you say?
Yes Sir
Very well.
As Lime grabbed Rufus by his scruff, I reached up with both paws and pulled them down. "Thank you..." The dog said. Finally, I realized something. "How do we get out of here?" I said. Lime turned to the dog. "Ahem? Rufus shrugged. "If I knew, I would have taken the chances!" He said. "You were behind a lava river, Rufus. Yeesh. Of course you couldn't get out." Lime said. I remembered practically falling from the sky into here. I looked at the ceiling, and sure enough, a portal was on it, back up. "Hand me the balloons." I said.
"What about these?" Lime said, waving ballons in her paw. "Don't ask." She added quickly. "Lime you are a genius!" I yelled suddenly. I explained how we could tie her to the ballons and send her over to get the dog, Rufus. Then I guess I would try to pull them down. We attached the ballons to Lime and floated her over. Now I hope this works.
Lime and I walked into glowing red cavern. "That's the dog I saw in my dream," I said. Lime titled her head. "We got to get him out. He's surrounded by lava." She said. "Lava or no lava, try untying the ladder leading down into here. Then try putting it like a bridge over the lava river." The dog said. "Cool. Do you like ice cream?" Lime asked. "Uh yeah bu-" Lime threw in a random ice cream cone into the lava. "Melted." She said. Like we hadn't realized. "Where did you get that?" I asked. "I got it from the resting place before we left." I shook my head. "Lime, you are impossible."
I didn't have time to look around. The yellow phantom robot grabbed me and a portal opened up. He dumped me through. I heart a faint voice that half way in a portal sounded to me like "Vermonx!". I was joined by a fuzzy blob of green in the portal.
I realized it was Lime when we appeared outside a glowing red cavern.. the same cavern with the dog I had seen in my dream. "We got to go in there!" I said. Lime looked confused but she followed me into the cave.
Dawn insisted we head into a large stone castle to investigate, or try to find the phantom's secret base. I went upstairs. I was dumb and went up alone, nobody for backup. What does this do? I think it has a code on it! I thought to myself. I walked up to a gold cat statue and started inspecting the weird symbols around its base. I was so into my work, I didn't realize what was coming up behind me...
