Previously on Storms of Myths:

Shooting Star here, in my cudilas in Emerald Mansion. At the beginning of the previous episode I had this wonderful dream, which Helen was actually in. The next day, Comet came in on me, while I starting to write my adventures down, and that's how all this writing began. He came in on me to see what I was doing, and it was Gallop who came in to tell me that Bristle and Alpha Lion wanted my presence. When we got to White Fox's shelter, I found out some interesting, and disturbing news and information. On the Trio of Resolve's side, they were going to leave in a few days, and Alpha Lion had got my charges of sincerity, as a last final gift to me. Bristle related his tale to us, in Feranimon's presence as well, and some of what I found out disturbed me, and that's how Feranin League's "cold civil war" started. On with the conclusion...

A few days later...

A few days had passed since A.J. was told that the Trio of Resolve were planning to depart from the Realm of Charges, and also a few days since the disturbing news A.J. got to know of. Since then, Zonemon had tried to make peace with A.J., but A.J. refused and ignored Zonemon every time Zonemon tried to apologize. A.J. didn't know it but that was the beginning of Feranin League's "cold civil war".

The eventual outcome wasn't nice, as A.J. would find out later on. A.J. also blocked Zonemon with his telepathy so that Zonemon won't be able to read A.J.'s mind. A.J. let the rest of Feranin League deal with Zonemon, yet he refused and ordered the rest not to tell Zonemon of what was happening in A.J.'s mind, as A.J. allowed the rest of Feranin League to read his mind. What was in his mind was pain and hurt for what Zonemon had done.

What A.J. didn't understand was that Polamon had encouraged, and even forced Zonemon to watch the events with him, which Zonemon refused to do at first. On that day, upon returning back to the shelter, A.J. remembered what Alpha Lion had told him about his charges of sincerity. A.J. went to check, and indeed they were there. Upon touching them, they turned into green fractal data, and swirled into A.J.'s covered univice.

Since then, A.J. allowed no one to enter his room in Feranin League's bioshelter. He would rest and eat there, while he was busy writing on pass adventures he had. He had the biovesto door locked and if anyone tried to force themselves in, then A.J. allowed the biovesto door to gently zap them. Poor Ememon was the first to experience the gentle zap, in the presence of the rest of Feranin League.

Of course A.J. knew when they were outside his door. His soul-warriors were surprised to see that Ememon got gently zapped, yet Ememon didn't force himself in, or try to force himself in; it was all accidental, with him accidentally touching the door. After that, Ememon went into solitary, being in shock. He cried through the whole night that time. Otazoidmon and Equalmon tried to comfort him, but it was no use.

Otazoidmon and Equalmon also tried to comfort Zonemon, but Zonemon refused it, and remarked that it was between him and A.J. Zonemon didn't comfort Ememon, because Zonemon knew how that now Ememon knew how Zonemon felt towards A.J. However, Zonemon was wrong, as Ememon was just upset at A.J. After Ememon's accidental zap, none of A.J.'s soul-warriors dared to touch the door.

The present was the day that the Trio of Resolve was leaving. Everyone in Resolve was attending the farewell party for White Fox; Alpha Lion, and Shadow Owl. White Fox had done so much for the town that the residence didn't hesitate to see White Fox off. The only ones that weren't present were A.J.'s two soul-warrior copedam: Zonemon and Ememon.

A.J. was in the lead of the farewell party. White Fox was in the center; Shadow Owl was to White Fox's right, and Alpha Lion was to White Fox's left. The Trio of Resolve was outside, near the bioshelter where Shadow Owl and Alpha Lion took residence temporarily on their stay in the Realm of Charges. The trio was in front of their biovesto fighter ripple class peckers. It was the first time A.J. was out of his room since he was disturbed from Zonemon's tale.

White Fox had already appointed Ranos Silverstar as the new first mayor of Resolve, and the residents of Resolve wouldn't have chosen anyone better. White Hulman was there, close to A.J. As was Mamigrol, being alone, yet close by, because of his large form. Tanumia and Sadenre were also present, where as Ranos was in the lead and front of the residents of Resolve to farewell White Fox. Cliff and Nexusmon were also present, but with the residents of Resolve.

Besides the residents of Resolve, Actonal Army was also present, with Feranimon and Nick in the front and lead, in their own group. A.J. shook hands with White Fox, while both stared each other in the eyes for a few silent moments. With their hands held together, A.J. and White Fox spoke their final farewell.

"... Well legend... It's been a pleasure meeting you and helping you out. You've helped me know of some information I wouldn't have found out, if it wasn't for you. Take care. I'll never forget you, and I hope you accomplish your goals and achieve your final reward." White Fox smiled.

"Take care of yourself. I'll miss you White Fox." A.J. whispered.

"Take care of White Hulman for me, since he's now yours. I'll miss you too legend." White Fox nodded.

With that done, White Fox and A.J. embraced a friendly embrace, and let go of each other. White Fox walked away towards Ranos, to bid him farewell. Shadow Owl was next to approach A.J.

"Well legend... We got off on a bad start, yet that didn't affect how we turned out in our friendship... If anything, it probably helped it. Thanks for all your help. Watch out for yourself." Shadow Owl smiled.

A.J. nodded slowly, smiling and both shared a quick friendly embrace. Shadow Owl walked away towards his biovesto pecker Shadow Glide. White Fox had finished bidding Ranos farewell, and was heading towards Feranimon to bid him and Actonal Army farewell. Alpha Lion was the last of the trio to approach A.J. and bid him farewell. For the first few moments, both were silent. Where A.J. was curiously staring at Alpha Lion, Alpha Lion had his head lowered.

"I'm sorry about my comment on FCL Star Trail, not to mention my interferences with retrieving your charges. I hope you can forgive me, and for us to be friends again." Alpha Lion apologized, rising his head.

All his previous injuries from retrieving the charges of sincerity were gone, as White Fox applied some healing herbs on them, and they were healed in less than a day. A.J. smiled, nodding his head. He was the one to initiate the friendly embrace, taking Alpha Lion by surprise, yet quickly Alpha Lion was relieved. A.J. let go of his friend.

"You don't need to ask for my forgiveness, because there's nothing I need to forgive you for. Of course we can be friends, as we always were and always would be. I'll never forget you guys: White Fox's help, information, advice and guidance; your help in retrieving the charges, of which I would have a harder time in retrieving them; and Shadow Owl's help in accompanying us to retrieve my last mysterious charge. Take care of yourself and watch your back." A.J. smiled.

Alpha Lion grinned. "You bet I will. The same goes to you legend. Take care friend."

With bidding the last of the trio farewell, Alpha Lion walked away towards his biovesto pecker Dusk Predator. A.J. noticed White Fox walking into his own biovesto pecker White Prince. Those present remained in their spots, watching the three biovesto peckers take off, with Shadow Glide took formation to White Prince's right, behind him. Dusk Predator took formation to White Prince's left, behind him.

Blasting off towards the sky, the present crowd cheered, and those who could wave, did wave, watching as the Trio of Resolve vanished in the sky, never to be seen again by them, or at least not anytime soon for A.J.; Actonal Army, and Feranin League. A.J. just stared at the trio's departure. As soon as the biovesto starships were out of sight, the crowd burst apart, taking numerous different directions, leaving A.J. and his Feranin League behind alone.

Otazoidmon; Equalmon; Starspark; Lunal; White Hulman, and Mamigrol all crowded around A.J. Otazoidmon glanced at A.J.

"What now?" Otazoidmon asked.

A.J. grinned. "Now we have a lot of things to do."

"You mean you're not going back to your room?" Equalmon inquired.

A.J. shook his head. "Not when I have stuff to do. White Hulman and Mamigrol: welcome officially into Feranin League. You can live with us now White Hulman, and both you and Mamigrol are going back with us to Meric Land, that is when we go back."

White Hulman didn't say anything, as was known, yet his genuine big smile said it all. Mamigrol smiled gently, and nodded his head in appreciation and acceptance...

Ranos; Feranimon, and A.J. were together alone in an isolated location in Resolve, discussing some things, when Sadenre rushed towards them in fright. Ranos; Feranimon, and A.J. stopped their discussion, and turned towards Sadenre.

"What is it?" Ranos asked, stepping towards Sadenre.

"Crolands at the main western entrance." Sadenre replied, breathless.

"What were you doing there?" Feranimon asked.

"Going on an outing for Tanumia." Sadenre replied.

"And you just walked out on them?" Ranos asked.

Sadenre and Ranos continued on discussing the crolands, while A.J. turned to Feranimon, and Feranimon turned to A.J.

"You know, it's been a week since the trio has left, and even longer since we've been here, and all this time you didn't tell me there were capable warriors?" A.J. inquired quietly.

Feranimon blinked. "What are you talking about?"

A.J. rolled his eyes. "Typical. You said only you and your army was capable of combat and was the only defense for Resolve."

Feranimon sweat-dropped. "I was sort of right."

"Oh you're sort of dead." A.J. muttered, folding his arms.

Feranimon grunted in response. Ranos turned to A.J. and Feranimon.

"Are you two coming?" Ranos asked.

A.J. blinked. "Where?"

Ranos rolled his eyes. "Haven't you heard us?"

"Um... Is this a trick question?" Feranimon asked, grinning.

"Ugh. Forget it! Come along now; we're going to have a little chit-chat with the crolands... As for you Sadenre, you go back to Tanumia and tell her what has happened. Don't worry about me; Feranimon and A.J. have my back." Ranos smiled.

"They awfully outnumber you three... Maybe it would be a good idea if I accompanied you." Sadenre suggested.

Ranos shook his head. "No. And don't you dare sneak up on us. Remember..."

"You're an elf just as I am... I know." Sadenre nodded, sighing.

Sadenre walked away, heading towards Tanumia's store. Ranos watched her until she disappeared, entering the store. Assured, Ranos nodded his head, and motioned with his head for Feranimon and A.J. to follow him towards the main western entrance.

"You know, maybe I'm just seeing things, but I could swear that there's something between Ranos and Sadenre." A.J. whispered, following Ranos from behind.

"You're not seeing things; Ranos and Sadenre do have something together." Feranimon whispered.

"Oh... Well, that's good, because I thought I was imagining crazy things." A.J. whispered.

"You two can stop whispering about me and Sadenre now." Ranos stated from ahead.

A.J. sweat-dropped. "Forgot he was an elf."

"Even though it was just mentioned moments before." Feranimon agreed.

"Very funny. We're almost there you two." Ranos informed.

Feranimon and A.J. stared ahead, and saw countless crolands, with a patient croland in the front and lead, waiting patiently for them. Ranos was the first to stop in front of the leading croland, but not too close, while A.J. took Ranos' right, facing the crolands, and Feranimon took the left, also facing the crolands.

"I was told that you wanted to speak with me." Ranos started.

The leading croland nodded. "Indeed. I'm only one of few crolands who can speak some of your languages. My name is Glorished. You are the leader in this humble town?"

Ranos nodded. "I'm Ranos Silverstar. I'm the mayor here, or as you put it: the leader. I assume you already know of A.J. Actonal and General Feranimon by sight?"

"Indeed I do. I was one of the few who survived the assault. I'm here to offer peace between Resolve and the Crolands." Glorished offered.

"Do you speak for all crolands?" Ranos asked.

Glorished nodded. "I do."

"What about that evil croland who led you all before?" Feranimon asked.

"Emperor Bladeslash? All you need to know is that he was overruled. I'm the new speaker and leader of the crolands here in the Realm of Charges." Glorished replied.

"Your offer is..." Ranos paused for a moment. "Accepted."

Glorished nodded. "Good to hear. I was also wondering if we crolands could live amongst the populace of Resolve."

Ranos blinked. "I don't know... I guess that will be O.K., but don't be surprised if there are residents in the populace who don't like you, or have negative feelings towards your race."

"We're all well aware of that, no thanks to Bladeslash. You have my word: Resolve or its populace won't come into any harm by any croland, not any more. We also pledge our support when you might need us." Glorished offered.

"That's very generous of you Glorished. Welcome to Resolve, you and your race. Feranimon?" Ranos asked.

"Yes mayor." Feranimon replied.

"Tell Actonal Army of the peace between Resolve and the Crolands, not to mention a possible alliance when we need them, and that they're going to live with us here in Resolve. Have your army spread that, and that it's from me, as I've accepted their offers." Ranos requested.

"Will do." Feranimon nodded, before walking away, inwards in the town.

"We'll camp out of Resolve for tonight, so that tomorrow the populace of Resolve would be aware of us, and know. Take care friend." Glorished nodded, walking away from Resolve, along with his race.

"What do you think um... legend?" Ranos asked.

"I can sense not only his honesty, but the honesty of the rest of his race; they won't harm Resolve or its populace anymore, and they'll help us when we need them. They're being sincere; open, and truthful." A.J. explained.

"Just what I was thinking exactly." Ranos agreed...

White Hulman walked into A.J.'s bedroom, with ease, and walked over to A.J.'s bed, where A.J. was sound asleep. White Hulman bent over A.J. gently shook him. With the morning arriving, A.J. was a light sleeper, and he easily woke up. The first thing he saw was White Hulman. A.J. didn't mind White Hulman waking him up, since this wasn't the first time, and A.J. wouldn't admit it publicly, yet he did enjoy White Hulman waking him up.

It was just the day before that he had informed Feranimon; White Hulman; Mamigrol; Cliff, and Nexusmon about details of Meric Land, especially the civilized areas. The day before that Cliff and Nexusmon told A.J. and Feranin League about their tale, and the information they knew of about crests and charges. A.J. was really enlightened about the crests and charges, thanks to both Cliff and Nexusmon. It was that day that the crolands starting being part of the populace of Resolve.

Surprisingly, the crolands were welcomed and the populace of Resolve was friendly and kind to them. It surprised A.J. and Feranin League, along with Cliff; Nexusmon and Ranos, because Ranos had no idea about it, and he was the mayor. Yet, apparently Tanumia was the brains behind it, and Sadenre kept it a secret from Ranos by choice. Moments after waking up and seeing White Hulman's face, A.J. felt a familiar presence in the bioshelter.

A.J. nodded to White Hulman, informing him that he knew of the presence. White Hulman nodded in return and walked out. Since the Trio of Resolve had left, A.J. changed the ways for the biodoor of his bedroom to work. Instead of gently zapping anyone, he had it specifically zap Zonemon only, and for the rest to be allowed entry. White Hulman left A.J.'s bedroom, and A.J. got out of bed.

He changed into the clothes he wore the first time after he saw Helen's hologram, through a strange ability that the three mysterious charges were capable of. He changed to dark green sport shoes, with black shoelaces. He wore dark green socks, and black bland shorts, which had a band type of belt, which held the shorts secure around A.J.'s waist and down close to his knees. A.J. wore a dark green t-shirt, which had an outline of a black owl with its wings spread slightly on the whole length of the back.

In the front, the owl was outlined in black and small, soaring downwards. Around his hands, A.J. wore fingerless dark green leather gloves, with the right glove covering his univice, and not harming it. He was wearing his Crescent of Myths around his neck, and he let it out above his t-shirt. Once done changing, A.J. left his bedroom and walked towards the familiar presence, which was waiting for him patiently in the main room.

Feranimon saw A.J. enter, and was about to stand up, but A.J. shook his head.

"You have something to tell me?" A.J. asked.

"Yeah. I wanted to ask you permission for something." Feranimon replied.

A.J. took a seat. "What is it?"

"I wanted to ask you if Actonal Army is allowed to search for your remaining charges." Feranimon requested.

"Not much is left. How do you know about it?" A.J. asked.

"Alpha Lion has informed me about his adventures in retrieving some of your charges, and White Fox explained everything he knew about charges to me. I am aware that there still are charges that you don't have. That was of course before their departure." Feranimon remarked.

"That's true; there are charges of mine that haven't been retrieved... I don't mind Actonal Army retrieving my charges, just as they come to me in the end. Is that it?" A.J. asked.

"Actually, no. You see, I asked your permission late, as I already told Actonal Army to search for charges." Feranimon explained.

"... Did they find any?" A.J. asked.

"Not that I know of, no." Feranimon replied.

"Then it's O.K." A.J. shrugged.

"That's not the main reason I came here; it was secondary compared to the main reason. While some Aero Jerebimon was searching for your charges, one came upon some strange carnivores, unlike any I know of, or heard of. I haven't seen them before myself though. Anyway, it seemed the adult was dying, and it was a parent... most likely the mother, because there was a younger animal with it, which was similar to it." Feranimon explained.

A.J.'s eyes widened. "Where is this?"

Feranimon smiled. "Why?"

"That poor young animal might be all alone, and I want to take care of it." A.J. replied in a heartbeat.

"Thought so, but you already have Starspark and Lunal." Feranimon reminded.

"I don't want to leave that young animal all alone! It might eventually become part of Feranin League, yet to do that, I need to raise it." A.J. stated.

Feranimon nodded. "I can take you to the Aero Jerebimon that saw it, and from there he'll take you to the strange animals. I won't accompany you to the strange carnivore."

"Just escort me to the right Aero Jerebimon." A.J. decided, standing up.

"Done." Feranimon stood up. "Follow me."

With that, Feranimon walked out of Feranin League's bioshelter, with A.J. close behind him...

A.J. walked behind Feranimon patiently, leaving Resolve's main hill, which surprised A.J., yet kept any complaints to himself. He needed the exercise, and he was used to walking long distances, so he didn't mind it much. Their trail to their destination was silent, and to A.J.'s surprise time and time again, Feranimon avoided going up or down hills, as he stayed in the valleys between them, apparently knowing where he was going.

Eventually Feranimon stopped at the foot of a hill, and stared upwards. A.J. stopped beside him, and followed his gaze.

"Mind telling me what's going on?" A.J. asked.

"Well, Aero Jerebimon fleet, which is also dubbed Gallivant Fleet, is based on a wider hill, wider than the hill Resolve town is based on, yet this hill is part of Resolve Highlands. The right Aero Jerebimon is up there. Actonal Army knows the way here by heart. The right Aero Jerebimon's name is Quade Jereville. Going up and down those hills we passed would have tired both of us.

"The name of the base, which is an airbase, is named Gallivant Airbase." Feranimon explained.

"Do all individuals of Actonal Army have their own special names?" A.J. asked.

Feranimon nodded. "First names and surnames. Quade Jereville is the only Quade Jereville, and there is no other codelimin in Actonal Army that has the surname of Jereville. We would have to have them, or it would be difficult to know each other or to call onto certain codelimin."

"What about you? Do you have a first name and surname?" A.J. asked.

"Before I became Feranimon, while I was still a Jerebimon and before, I had the name of Ambrel Feranin, and it's still that name, even though I'm the only Feranimon out there as far as I know. Like Quade, both my first name and my surname are special, as there aren't any other codelimin in Actonal Army that have such a name. At first I was known as Ambrel and I had no surname, but when I was elected general, my surname became Feranin." Feranimon explained.

"I see... And now you're going to head back to Resolve?" A.J. inquired.

Feranimon nodded. "I'm afraid so. Quade knows of you coming, and he knows how you look, so all you have to do is walk up this hill and look around for awhile. Quade would soon enough spot you and approach you. Once you two head back, Quade would drop you off at Resolve Town first, so don't worry about that."

"So insha' Allah I'll see you later." A.J. informed.

"Insha' Allah." Feranimon agreed, walking away.

Left all alone, and with nothing else to do, A.J. started walking up the hill, to Gallivant Airbase...

Eventually, after a tiresome climb, A.J. reached the top of the hill, which he had thought at the moment would be suitable to be called Gallivant Hill. He stared around at the airbase, glancing at the numerous Aero Jerebimon stationed there. Feranimon was right, as A.J. did notice that Gallivant Hill was larger than the hill Resolve Town was on. The Aero Jerebimon had feet and legs like dragons, so it was no trouble for them to move around on land.

While A.J. was glancing around, one of the Aero Jerebimon approached A.J., and A.J. noticed. The Aero Jerebimon stopped in front of A.J., and stared down at him. A.J. gulped.

"Assalamu Alaikum... I'll guess you're Quade Jereville. You already know I'm A.J. Actonal." A.J. greeted nervously.

Quade smiled, nodding his head.

"So Ambrel had told you eh? Pleasure to meet you in person. Are you ready for a flight?" Quade asked.

A.J. shrugged. "Yep."

"Climb up into my cockpit. Don't worry; the cockpit would seal up with biovesto like windows." Quade remarked.

"How do I get up?" A.J. asked.

Quade sweat-dropped. "Of course." He muttered.

Quade knelt down on his dragon-like legs, and A.J. stood there for awhile, wondering how he would get up, until an idea came to him, and he worked on his idea. Thanks to his idea, in no time, A.J. was in Quade's cockpit, and as Quade told him, the biovesto window sealed around the top of the cockpit, keeping A.J. safe in the cockpit. A.J. had noticed when he entered that there was a rear passenger seat, just like a real fighter plane.

"Hang on." Quade's voice sounded loud and clear on the comlink.

Just like on his FCL Star Trail, A.J. sat back and relaxed. To his momentarily surprise, a biovesto suit came out of the seat and held A.J. securely on the seat. Since he had experience with such things in his own biovesto fighter starship, he didn't mind experiencing it in an Aero Jerebimon. Once the biovesto suit secured A.J., Quade took off into the air, leaving Gallivant Airbase behind him.

"Feranimon told me that after we check those strange animals, when we're heading back, you'll drop me off at Resolve Town." A.J. stated.

"That's true. Don't worry about that." Quade's voice assured.

"I might want to bring one of the strange animals on board." A.J. hinted.

"I don't mind." Quade's voice assured.

For the rest of their long flight towards their destination, there was silence between the two...

The rest of their long flight towards their destination was silent between the two, yet inside A.J.'s mental mind, it was very active. He was actually starting to think deeply about a person being in love, and what it meant to be a friend. He claimed to feel the same way towards Amanda, as he did towards Helen, yet he only dreamed of Helen, which showed his true love for her.

A.J. wondered if that was one of the indications that he was only just friends with Amanda, and what he felt towards Amanda was only a passing crush. Besides, A.J. saw more common things between him and Helen, where as he and Amanda had less in common. For instance, A.J. realized that he and Helen had the same texture of hair, and to some degree, just as A.J. was creative, Helen herself was creative.

Helen might have not admitted it, yet A.J. sometimes felt her quietness, and shyness part of her personality, even though around crowds she was social with them. A.J. was hippy type, just like Helen, yet Helen was more into it, as she would just try something for once, even if it was harmful to her someway. Not only the dreams, but A.J. has also been awfully thinking a lot about Helen since he had went in coma in Meric Land.

Thinking a lot about her as in daydreaming how the future could be, and how they would react and have fun with each other when they were adults and parents. A.J. daydreamed about possible scenarios that would happen between him and Helen in which they would be dealing with problems their kids would have. It was then that A.J. started to realize that he was correct in his assumption: that his love for Helen was true, where as for Amanda, it was only a crush.

He was worried about the move he did about naming the letter he did in the second journey, only making it towards Helen; Grace, and his first kid Kevin, and not to Amanda, yet now he was happy he did that. Actually starting to go deep into it, A.J. felt comfortable and warm just thinking about Helen. It was something that couldn't be explained too deeply, yet A.J. understood that such deep feelings he had for Helen only met that she was his soulmate.

"They're down there." Quade's voice cut into A.J.'s thought.

"Uh?" A.J. asked.

"We're here. Where have you been?" Quade's voice asked.

A.J. glanced downwards towards his side and saw under a tree: a lying creature; with a young one, and another apparently healthy one guarding them.

"I thought Feranimon said that there were only two." A.J. muttered.

"This is odd to me also, because this is the first time I see three. Do you know what kind of creatures they are?" Quade's voice asked, as he circled over the three creatures.

"I haven't seen any such creatures in my own world, yet I have seen them in Meric Land." A.J. stated.

"Really? What are they?" Quade's voice inquired.

"Go down closer, but not too close; I want to make sure it's the same type of specie." A.J. informed.

"Very well." Quade's voice decided.

Quade circled down closer to the three creatures, which made the one on guard alert and tense to it.

"This is the lowest I can go." Quade's voice informed.

"This is low enough." A.J. assured.

"Are you convinced?" Quade's voice asked.

A.J. sighed. "Yes. They're the same creatures from what I know of in Meric Land: Zeastrises. The wounded one is the mother; the guarding one is the father, and the young one is the kid."

"Zea-What?" Quade's voice inquired.

"Successful hybrids, which is a creature that has qualities from two other creatures. With it being successful means that they can breed and have offspring. Zeastrises are two types: Common Zeastrises, and White Zeastrises. Zeastrises are basically hybrid between wolf and lion. For males, Zeastrises have the lion's mane, yet the agility and family responsibility of an alpha wolf." A.J. explained.

"I thought normal lions had such responsibility." Quade's voice remarked.

"But they aren't an alpha wolf, and don't feel like an alpha wolf. Like wolves, Zeastrises are more capable of surviving in many climates, and habitats, where as lions only can survive in places like prairies. Besides, Zeastris is my own made up name. Those we see down there are common Zeastrises." A.J. explained.

"It would probably be easy for me to have a zeastris cub on board, but that was before I knew of the father." Quade's voice protested.

"I know, this is going to be harder than before, but I'm still up to it. Besides, I can try something now, and it would be with wild creatures, not tamed." A.J. grinned.

"What do you want to do?" Quade's voice asked.

"Drop me off somewhere close by, yet not too close for them to think that we're threatening." A.J. explained.

"I don't like the sound of this." Quade's voice complained.

"This would be useful for me when I become a vet insha' Allah. Besides, I'll be extra careful, and I'll trust in Allah and keep Him in my mind while I deal with those Zeastrises." A.J. assured.

"Ambrel won't like to hear this, and I don't know... But I'll do it." Quade's voice decided, giving in.

Quade glided away from the Zeastris family, yet not too far. Quade landed, and the bio-cockpit opened up, while the biosuit freed A.J. With him free, A.J. jumped out of Quade and moved towards the Zeastris family. Immediately, the Zeastris father moved towards him and growled at him. A.J. stopped within a few inches away from Quade, and knelt down on his knees.

The father was facing A.J., growling in his throat. A.J. remained calm, and deciding to start his plan, acted upon it. He recited what he knew from the Qur'an and the father Zeastris calmed down, and the other affect was gaining the cub's and mother's attention towards him. A.J. remained reciting Qur'an, while the Zeastris family stared neutrally at A.J., as if they were listening to him.

A.J. smiled inwardly, as he knew his plan was working. He knew that when any creature, besides humans, would hear Qur'an, they would know it's the words of Allah, and they would listen interested in it. Once A.J. recited all he knew, he started over, repeating himself. Quade was impressed and surprised, yet kept alert. Eventually, the father Zeastris moved cautiously towards A.J. silently, while A.J. kept on reciting Qur'an from his memory and mind aloud.

Inside A.J. was scared, yet he trusted in Allah, and kept calm as best as he could. The father Zeastris eventually stopped a few inches in front of the knelt A.J., and A.J. stopped reciting. The father Zeastris bent his head, and A.J. stretched his arm, smiling. The father Zeastris reached out towards A.J.'s stretched arm and rubbed his snout on it with care, A.J. responded by rubbing his palm along the Zeastris' snout.

The father Zeastris moved his snout away, and stared with pleading eyes at A.J. Understanding, A.J. nodded. He stood up and moved towards the mother and cub. Quade was shocked in a positive way. He thought A.J. wasn't capable of it, and that the Zeastris would attack A.J., yet it was absolutely contrary, as the Zeastris seemed to plead for his help. Moving their way, the mother and cub watched cautiously as A.J. approached them.

Eventually A.J. stopped in front of the mother and knelt down. The Zeastris father was by his side. A.J. rubbed his chin in thought, and Quade's passenger seat came into mind. A.J. grinned as an idea came to him...

"I can't believe you did it." Quade's voice admitted.

A.J. was in the front of the cockpit, carrying the young cub, while the parents were in back. The mother was still injured and hurt. It seemed that A.J. wasn't injured or harmed anyway himself. Quade was heading back towards Resolve Town.

'Do you copy Comet?' A.J. thought.

'I'm here Shooting Star. What is it?' Otazoidmon's thought entered A.J.'s mind.

'I'm returning to Resolve Town, with a Zeastris family. The mother is injured. I'll need your help.' A.J. thought.

'I'll be waiting to help.' Otazoidmon's thought assured A.J.

The Zeastris family remained quiet, while the cub held onto A.J.'s chest, though not too tight. Eventually Quade arrived at the center of Resolve, and landed. Otazoidmon; Feranimon, and a few others like Ranos were there, welcoming A.J. back. Holding the Zeastris cub carefully in his arms, A.J. got out of the cockpit and put the cub down. The cub waited while A.J. took out both parents from the back seat, uniting the family once more.

"This is going to be your first job as a vet eh?" Feranimon asked.

"It shouldn't be too hard insha' Allah." A.J. replied.

"Where are we going to do it?" Otazoidmon asked.

With his job completed, Quade took to the air on his own, returning to Gallivant Airbase, leaving his passengers behind.

"We could..." A.J. started.

"Whatever you're going to do to help that Zeastris, you can do it in my underground home." Tanumia offered.

A.J. blinked, staring at Tanumia. "Really? Thanks. We'll do that. The cub and the father will follow us."

"Before you start going there, I need to tell you something first." Feranimon whispered.

"What?" A.J. asked.

"We found your remaining charges of reliability and retrieved them back to near your bioshelter." Feranimon replied, whispering...

Previously on Storms of Myths:

Equalmon here. A.J. was informed about the possible existence of the mysterious crests. From the mysterious charges, for each one A.J. had acquired, there were two crests, with the crest of myths apparent. The other two mysterious crests we figured out, depending on which mysterious charge was shown. AJmon left Dune Desert and we entered the highlands. We came across a town in the highlands and were surprised to see it, but decided to rest there for awhile. We were introduced to White Hulman and White Fox. It turned out that the whole town was made of Biovesto, an organic building growing material, just like the Emerald Mansion. We were introduced to Feranimon and it turned out that there were other Otazoidmon other than Comet. Feranimon had just returned with his army: Actonal Army, from raiding the crolands territory. A male gnome rushed in and without any words, Feranimon rushed out, knowing the problem. From the gnome, we found out about the crolands attacking Resolve Town, as was the town's title. We rushed to help out, but Emeraldmon stayed behind to regain his energy. White Fox also helped out and with the joint might of Feranin League; White Fox, and Actonal Army, the invaders were driven back with heavy casualties on their side. We found out that they won't come back and Resolve Town was safe. Other than Feranin League and Actonal Army, there wasn't any other codelimin in the town, with the rest of the populace being from different species. Through White Fox, A.J. had gained his Digi-Eggs of Myths and his own army, as Actonal Army allied with Feranin League, yet staying separate. We still have one more mysterious charge to gain. I wonder if White Fox knows why the mysterious charges, much less the mysterious crests, are so 'mysterious', so to speak. On with the conclusion...

---

"Speaking of charges, I have a few questions to ask about some 'mysterious' charges." A.J. informed.

White Fox lent back into his seat thoughtfully.

"How many mysterious charges have you acquired?" Feranimon asked.

"Only two." Zonemon replied.

"Which ones?" White Fox asked.

"Atmosphere and Deepness." Ememon replied.

"So you still need survival. It's the toughest to get." Feranimon informed.

"Why is that?" Equalmon asked.

"You'll all have to go through space, literally, to get it." White Fox replied.

"No problem there. We'll just use our..." Zonemon started.

Feranimon glared at him. "No problem there? You don't know what you're talking about. Crolands are naturally adapted to space and space is there territory!"

"... But didn't you say that you led Actonal Army on a successful raid into Croland territory?" Otazoidmon asked.

"Land, not space." Feranimon informed.

"Back to the mysterious charge. What's so 'mysterious' about them?" A.J. asked.

White Fox shook his head. "Nobody knows. I don't know. I... would assume they have 'mysterious' abilities or powers, being stronger than normal charges. Being 'mysterious' is why they're mysterious." He explained.

"But you're sure that they have powers and abilities different from normal charges." A.J. stated.

"Not different, but stronger; more advanced; more updated. Call it what you like." White Fox corrected.

"So it's up to us to find out what their powers are?" Equalmon asked.

"I'm afraid so." White Fox nodded.

"One thing's for sure: The mysterious charges won't show their advanced powers until: 1. All three are reunited and 2... They trust you Feranin League." Feranimon informed.

"You're talking like if they're intelligent." Ememon noted.

"Oh, they are. The charges all have their own powers and their own story. But the mysterious charges were different and are more intelligent than normal charges." White Fox confirmed.

"Do you know the story?" Otazoidmon asked.

White Fox shook his head. "All I know is that they existed during the early years after the creation of the Digital World. As for their own stories, well... There's only tales and myths, maybe even legends about them, but I can't confirm any of them."

"None of us can, because none of us lived at that time." Feranimon added.

"What about the five sovereigns?" Equalmon asked.

White Fox and Feranimon shrugged.

"They weren't always in touch with the events of the digital world, and let's not forget about Azulongmon's hibernation or isolation in the Eastern Quadrant." White Fox informed.

"So... the sovereigns are losing touch with each other." A.J. concluded.

Feranimon nodded. "Yes. They aren't sharing information with each other about the events that occur in each quadrant they guard. Besides, they do inform Hybromon, but Hybromon didn't live in the early years after the Digital World's creation." He explained.

Everybody quieted down and silence roamed as everyone went into their own thoughts.

"... How do we get to the survival charge? Surviving through space is our ordeal, but what's the route?" Equalmon asked.

"You'll need to go deep in the croland territory. First go through the land and the land itself is hard, with numerous obstacles built by the crolands. When you reach space, you'll all reach it suddenly. The crolands might attack, but seeing your survival for this town in that last battle, I'm sure you'll all make it just fine." Feranimon informed.

"You or Actonal Army won't accompany us?" Zonemon asked.

Feranimon shook his head. "It's not our territory and we'll definitely attract croland attention." He explained.

"So the battle is official then. May we come back here after we... um... 'capture' the survival charge?" A.J. asked.

"The battle is the last for Resolve Town and it's officially called the Battle of Resolve Town. Feranin League is welcome to return to Resolve Town. When you leave, we'll have some biovesto grow for you in Resolve Town, as your own private residence. What kind of shelter it'll form? I have no idea." White Fox explained.

"It'll be nice to settle down after losing our starship." Ememon muttered.

White Fox blinked. "Starship? What starship?" He inquired.

"The starship the deceased Coach Misterim Arteenlow had. A crescentian starship." A.J. informed.

"... Misterim is... dead?" Feranimon asked.

A.J. sighed. "Yes. We buried him ourselves."

"What was the cause of his death?" Feranimon asked.

"Not battle wounds. It was just his time to die I guess." A.J. replied.

"Normal sudden death." White Fox whispered.

A.J. nodded. "Yes. He died in his sleep." He confirmed.

"Were you related to Misterim in anyway?" Equalmon asked.

White Fox sighed. "We were close friends; not related in anyway. He was a crescentian and I'm part of the Anihulman specie."

"Did you know of me being crescentian, with crescentian ancestry?" A.J. asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I would think so. It isn't surprising. Such defense and abilities don't come from normal humans. Your battle skills prove that you're of crescentian blood... It's a shame that starship was destroyed." White Fox muttered.

"It was through the starship, which I called Paladin of Darkness, that we found the location of the mysterious charge of atmosphere, and not far was the mysterious charge of deepness." A.J. informed.

"Would you do me a favor?" White Fox asked.

A.J. nodded. "Sure."

"We'll also grow a starship for you while you're away. We'll need a blood sample, so that the biovesto starship would listen to you and be loyal to you. Though, name the biovesto starship something different from 'Paladin of Darkness'. Also, have a flag on it, to which side it is on. The favor is... to erect something in Meric Land in Misterim's behalf. I know he wants to stay here and wouldn't want to be buried there, but build or grow something there in his name." White Fox requested.

A.J. sighed. "Like a monument or something... I'll keep it in mind." He assured.

"We'll also need some 'data samples' from Equalmon; Zonemon; Comet, and Ememon here, so they'll be able to pilot the biovesto starship with you." Feranimon added.

"Data samples?'" Equalmon asked.

"How can you get such things?" Zonemon asked.

"With them, whatever form you're in, you'll be able to pilot the biovesto starship. You can get it as easily as a blood sample from humans." White Fox informed.

"I'm up with a 'data sample'." Otazoidmon decided.

"I'm fine with it too." Ememon agreed.

"Look at me! How can I pilot a starship, much less anything else?" Equalmon asked.

"'Whatever form you're in'. When you want to pilot the starship, A.J. would have you evolve into a form that's bipedal." Feranimon reminded.

Equalmon sweat-dropped. "Like Deep Techamon." He moaned.

"You have a charge of destiny?" White Fox asked.

"Yeah. From Grasl Pole. We found out about the mysterious charges from a Hyogamon there." Zonemon informed.

"White Hulman! Five sample tubes please! One for human blood and the other four for data!" White Fox yelled.

No reply came back, but White Fox knew White Hulman heard him.

"What about utensils: like a knife or something?" A.J. asked.

"White Hulman would also bring the necessary tools for withdrawing blood and data." White Fox replied.

"... By the way, there's a story I want to tell you all, but I'll tell it after you all return." He decided.

"N.A.?" Feranimon asked.

White Fox nodded. Feranimon nodded and laid his head back into the comfy pillow of the seat. White Hulman came out, carrying five tubes. All five were organic biovesto and all five had caps, but four had holes under them. The five tubes were in the test tube container, which was a laboratory utensil, which held test tubes in it. White Hulman was also holding some sort of a pincher utensil. A.J. sweat-dropped.

"Is there something here that isn't grown in biovesto?" A.J. inquired.

"What-What are the holes for?" Zonemon asked.

"The holes are to suck a certain amount of data out of you. You see, digital data and biovesto are so close in relation, that when taking a certain amount of data into some biovesto container, the biovesto would know how much amount to take. Your wound would quickly and automatically heal when the biovesto tube has the necessary data and the bottom hole of the tube itself would seal." White Fox explained, ignoring A.J.'s inquiry.

First White Hulman pinched one of A.J.'s fingers. A drop of A.J.'s blood dropped, but White Hulman was ready and the drop dripped into the open biovesto test tube. White Hulman closed the test tube, and put it in the test tube container. The small pinch instantly healed. Next were his soul-warrior copedam.

Just like White Fox said, White Hulman pinched the soul-warrior copedam one by one and, with the bottom of the test tube being above, data was sucked into the test tube and with the necessary amount, the hole at the bottom of the test tube was sealed, as were the wounds being healed. With the samples taken, White Hulman gathered up the test tubes, put them in the test tubes' container and went into another room. A.J. stood up.

"We'll be going now." He decided.

"For the third mysterious charge?" White Fox asked, smiling.

A.J. nodded. He motioned his soul-warrior copedam to follow.

"Please take care of Lunal and Starspark until we return and we will return. Explain to Lunal our absence." A.J. informed.

"We will." White Fox nodded.

With that, A.J. and his four soul-warrior copedam walked out of White Fox's home. Out on the highlands, A.J. glanced at both Equalmon and Ememon.

"We're both ready." Equalmon nodded.

"As AJmon, I'll be able to navigate to croland territory and to space." Ememon informed.

A.J. sighed. "Let's do this."

The univice glowed. Both Equalmon and Ememon went transparent green, activating the evolution.

"Dicrenol! Golden Destiny!" A.J. yelled, releasing and activating Equalmon's destiny charge.

"Dicrenol! Charge Initiate!" A.J. yelled, releasing and activating Ememon's goodness charge.

"EQUALMON CHARGE!"
"... DEEP TECHAMON! Mythical Destiny."

"EMEMON CHARGE!"
"... AJMON! The Flyer of Goodness."

A.J. mounted AJmon, along with Deep Techamon; Zonemon, and Otazoidmon. With all of them mounted on him, AJmon took to the sky and flew away from Resolve Town...

---

AJmon flew in the opposite direction he came from, and indeed it appeared that after several minutes of flying, they had all entered croland territory. It was still land though. The land was dry arid; black, and cracked, with ravines in numerous sizes in different locations. There were what appeared to be biovesto caverns with one entrance and one room and so far, there were no crolands in sight. The sky was crackling with red clouds and flashing black lightning. There was no thunder.

"So this is croland territory." Deep Techamon observed.

"Apparently." Zonemon agreed.

"I guess we won't have any trouble with the obstacles now." Otazoidmon reminded.

"Yeah. With me flying and all." AJmon agreed.

"Not if they have atmosphere obstacles." Deep Techamon warned.

AJmon sweat-dropped. "... For my sake, let's hope not."

A.J. kept silent, alert to any land movements or any possible sudden unwanted croland attention.

"... What is it with what you wanted to tell me? Something about Actonal Army?" Otazoidmon asked.

"Nothing much. It's just that they want to join us. Since the threat of crolands attacking Resolve Town is over, they wanted to join us when we return to Meric Land." A.J. replied.

"Feranimon?" Otazoidmon asked.

"An army! An actual army! With its own land forces and air force." Zonemon informed.

Otazoidmon nodded. "So Feranimon is the leader of Actonal Army?"

"Do you have to ask when it's apparent?" Zonemon asked.

Otazoidmon sweat-dropped. "Sorry, but I wanted to be sure." He explained.

"... Just one problem." Deep Techamon informed.

"One problem? For what?" A.J. asked.

"Your dream first of all and second, considering your dream: how are you going to bring Actonal Army to Meric Land?" Deep Techamon questioned.

A.J. sweat-dropped. "You all know about my dream in the school with Helen?" He asked.

Zonemon chuckled. "Ah yeah! And honestly, you were being a jerk." He stated.

A.J. narrowed his eyes. "I'm not entering your minds anymore so please stay out of mine... Well, I guess you all know this is some sort of a dream? I don't understand it myself."

"The thing is before we all joined you, we can confirm what Helen told you. The last thing we remember before entering this world was dozing off in your cudilas in Emerald Mansion, Meric Land." AJmon confirmed.

"... How are we going to deal with the space... um... environment?" Deep Techamon asked.

"I'll use Twinkler. I haven't used him in awhile. Besides, Twinkler has an ownalis jet which would allow me to navigate through croland space. I don't know about the rest of you." A.J. informed.

"We'll be using mystic auras and in flying forms." Zonemon decided.

"I was in the same area of thought." Otazoidmon agreed.

"I'm with that also." Deep Techamon added.

"I'm going to stay in this form of mine." AJmon decided.

"Duh! This form of yours is a flying form..." Zonemon trailed off upon glancing below them.

His eyes went wide. "That's definitely one of the obstacles!" He exclaimed.

Feranin League glanced downwards and all of them paled. Below them was a canyon and instead of a flowing river, it was a flowing lava river.

"... I guess so." A.J. muttered, slightly nervous.

"Did you have to tell us Bristle! I mean, Allah! Now if we aren't stable or secure enough on AJmon then down we'll drop! Thank you very much Mr. Bristle!" Deep Techamon yelled.

"Shhh! Do you want to grab croland attention?" A.J. asked, whispering.

Deep Techamon sweat-dropped. "Honestly, considering my previous encounter with them, no." He replied, whispering.

"Then keep your voice down." A.J. whispered.

Zonemon sighed. "Sorry for the sudden tension." He whispered.

Silence returned to Feranin League...

---

"What are you going to do with the test tubes?" Feranimon asked, standing up from his organic seat.

"White Hulman would combine all the samples together and put them in two embryo biovesto plants, with one plant growing a biovesto starship and the other into shelter for Feranin League. The two embryo plants would be planted somewhere in town or on the outskirts or suburbs of Resolve." White Fox explained.

White Hulman nodded his head and went back into the kitchen to combine the samples together.

"Wouldn't you need samples from Starspark and Lunal also?" Feranimon asked.

"Starspark and Lunal would be allowed in the biovesto shelter and biovesto starship. With memories of them being part of Feranin League, the shelter and starship would allow Starspark and Lunal access into them." White Fox replied.

Feranimon sighed. "Whatever. I need to go and check on my army. See how they're fairing. Besides I don't want to pardon you with me staying here. It would be like I'm taking permanent residence here! Remia White Fox."

White Fox nodded and Feranimon left his residence. White Fox was about to stand up, but feeling a presence stare at him puzzled, White Fox sat back down and turned his head towards Lunal, who was at the open door that led into the organic kitchen.

"A.J. and the others are off to collect their last mysterious charge. They'll come back, don't worry." White Fox assured.

Lunal nodded. "Lu." He hooted.

He flew back into the kitchen to continue on with his nap. The organic door reappeared, closing the kitchen. White Fox sighed and sat deeper into his organic seat, needing the time to grieve and mourn over his close friend. Being alone with his thoughts and memories of Misterim was all what White Fox needed at the moment...

---

Noticing the black darkness ahead of them, with lights coming through the darkness, AJmon and those mounted on him realized that they were closing in on the space territory, which meant possible unwanted croland attention. Noticing the only place to land, with flowing lava rivers the only thing below him, AJmon balanced himself on top of a pillar. Feranin League stared off towards space.

"Now is a best time for preparation." A.J. informed.

His univice glowed. Both Zonemon and Otazoidmon went transparent, jumping off of AJmon and into the sky.

"ZONEMON CREVOLVE..."
"... CENTERMON!"

"OTAZOIDMON CREVOLVE..."
"... COLAMON"

Colamon stabilized himself in midair while Centermon fell into the lava flows below him. Not panicking, he activated his green mystic aura in the blink of an eye. With help from A.J. and his univice, a green transparent sphere formed around Centermon and halted his fall. A.J. guided the sphere back to his level, with his univice glimmering. A.J. quickly stood on AJmon and knowing AJmon won't take his full weight, hastily leapt towards Centermon.

He went through the green transparent sphere and landed safely on Centermon's back.

"Is it O.K. with you?" A.J. asked.

Centermon shrugged. "I don't mind it. Thanks for the sphere."

"No problem." A.J. smiled.

Deep Techamon levitated himself off of AJmon. With all of them off of him, AJmon flew off of the lone pointed pillar and rushed towards space. He was glad to get rid of the weight. Centermon; Deep Techamon, and Colamon watched to observe the event. Just before reaching the boundary between space and the lava flow, AJmon held his breath and poked his face into space. Not blinking, he took a quick glance around. He noticed his green fur changing color, to grey.

Quickly withdrawing his face, AJmon turned his attention towards his fellow league. With A.J. doing the work, the green transparent sphere holding Centermon, who had A.J. mounted on him, floated towards AJmon. Deep Techamon flew towards AJmon with Colamon beside him. Regrouping, the league stared off into space. AJmon activated his green mystic aura.

"I couldn't see the charge. But one thing, I did notice my color changing." AJmon informed.

"Not surprising. The auras would protect you all from the hostility of space and might protect you from the discoloration. It seems that anything colorful, other than white; black, and shades of grey, would lose color upon entering this space in this realm." A.J. explained.

"It seems so and I'll take your word for it." Deep Techamon stated.

"When you agree on such things with A.J., please use plural, because we all agree with him." Centermon advised.

Deep Techamon shrugged. "I'll keep that in mind."

"What about you A.J.?" Colamon asked.

"The sphere would protect me and Centermon. Besides, Twinkler would protect me further more from space." A.J. informed.

"Are you going to put him on?" Centermon asked.

"I will." A.J. assured.

AJmon sighed. "Here we go."

Without further hesitation, all four rushed through the boundary...

---

They all felt like a ripple went through the boundary with them entering into space.

"Archive Twinkler!" A.J. yelled.

Instantly, on his command, his mystic suit covered his whole body completely, with his eyes glowing green, indication that his eyes and face were covered and protected through the suit.

'Thoughts here would be better than actual speaking.' A.J. thought.

'Actually, I just realized that we soul-warrior copedam won't need the mystic auras. Codelimin don't breath and are made of data.' Deep Techamon reminded.

'Oh yeah? Then go ahead and risk yourself being deleted! We aren't on Earth and we aren't in the Digital World! This is the Realm of Charges and for all we know, it might delete us in a blink if we took down our auras!' AJmon retorted.

Deep Techamon sweat-dropped. 'No need to snap at me. Geez... Sorry about my sudden thought. I guess I was being too hasty and not thinking it thoroughly through.' He apologized.

Feranin League fell silent and stayed close to each other. Being a mythical codelimin, Deep Techamon could do things like levitate himself in the air and fly through it. Silently Centermon and A.J. decided to stay in the sphere and Centermon liked having A.J. mounted on him, with A.J. navigating the sphere away from the boundary between space and land. His univice was covered below his mystic suit, but a slight bump was apparent on A.J.'s right hand.

Eventually, only space was all around them and they kept on moving ahead of them with them completely losing sense of direction due to them being in space. They kept their concentration on their direction so they won't completely get lost. Lights from stars were all around him, to what appeared like light-years away. But only there were white and grey lights. Indeed, in the mystic auras, Feranin League maintained their genuine colors.

Actually, going deeper into space started to unnerve Feranin League, including A.J., since this was the first time for all of them entering space. It turned into slight fear, and gradually grew deeper as they went deeper into space. The fact that they were in croland territory didn't help, but none showed. Faintly, a white-grayish light glimmered ahead.

'Quickly, someone take the rear. We don't want to lose our trail back to Resolve, much less back to land, and be lost and deserted here in this space.' A.J. informed.

Responding, Deep Techamon and Colamon took the rear, and kept side by side, while AJmon and the green transparent sphere kept the lead. Rushing ahead, the green transparent sphere took the lead and quickly engulfed the last mysterious charge. Under the suit, A.J. smiled and grabbed the charge. Turning the sphere around, AJmon also turned around, facing Colamon and Deep Techamon.

Colamon and Deep Techamon spun around, not moving and took the lead, returning to land hopefully. The green transparent sphere and AJmon took the rear back to land.

'Back to Resolve!' A.J. informed...

Previously on Storms of Myths:

Welcome to Otazoidmon's corner. I'm the host of my own corner. Now a lot of things happened during the past episode and here's the main summary of the previous episode. A.J. and I vanished from inside Under Wormmon and reappeared in some world realm, not to mention freaky. While becoming dizzy, A.J. lost his grip on the mysterious charge of deepness. It turned out that it reappeared back in Realm of Charge, where Ememon was the first to notice it and Zonemon the first to approach it. With his meal -A.J. and I- vanishing from his body, Under Wormmon resurfaced some distance away from Feranin League in Dune Desert. Under Wormmon didn't attack and neither did Feranin League. Equalmon recalled what happened to Ememon, when he was out cold. Feranin League went into offense, with me and A.J. reappearing in Dune Desert. With A.J. back, he was able to activate the mysterious charge of deepness and Zonemon mystery charged into Bubblemon. Bubblemon defeated Under Wormmon with ease and I took Under Wormmon down, but the status I was in, after so much activity in fighting, I decrevolved back in my caterpillar form of Emeraldmon. With Under Wormmon gone, a new charge appeared, being the Charge of Goodness. A.J. activated it and Ememon charged into AJmon. With AJmon now, we can fly around and leave Dune Desert quicker. I wonder what awaits us now. On with the conclusion...

---

"Check your univice." Zonemon advised.

"For what?" A.J. asked.

"... You mean the mysterious crest." Deep Techamon nodded.

A.J. raised an eyebrow. "Mysterious crest?" He asked.

"Apparently Hyogamon didn't know about it. I looked at the mysterious charge of deepness closely and there were two crests. I only recognized the crest of myths." Zonemon explained.

A.J. nodded and brought up the hologram of the mysterious charge of deepness. A.J. stared closely at it, with the hologram spinning. AJmon kept quiet, flying, with Lunal to his side, flying along side him. Starspark was resting on AJmon and Emeraldmon watched over him so that he won't fall. He noticed the crest of myths and recognized it, and waited, eventually noticing the second mysterious crest.

"Oh my." He whispered.

"That means there are mysterious crests. If we look at the mysterious charge of atmosphere, we might find its own mysterious crest." Deep Techamon explained.

"So this mysterious crest I see is the mysterious crest of deepness?" A.J. asked.

"Apparently it is." Emeraldmon nodded.

The hologram of the mysterious charge of deepness vanished and was replaced by the mysterious charge of atmosphere. A.J. looked at it closely, as did Zonemon; Emeraldmon, and Deep Techamon. With the hologram spinning, A.J. saw the second mysterious crest, and second crest on the mysterious charge. His eyes narrowed, and the hologram vanished.

"What is left? We have atmosphere and deepness, but there are three. What's the third? What kind of powers do these mysterious crests have?" A.J. asked.

Zonemon; Emeraldmon, and Deep Techamon all helplessly shrugged.

"I'd like to know myself." Emeraldmon replied.

"... I recall what Hyogamon said. The third mysterious charge is the mysterious charge of survival for space." Deep Techamon reminded.

"That leaves one question unanswered." Zonemon muttered.

AJmon flew out of Dune Desert and entered the highlands. Feranin League kept silent, looking down at the green hills and occasional farms.

"There's discipline and harmony in Realm of Charges?" A.J. asked.

"There is obviously. I wonder if there's a nearby town where we can rest." AJmon wondered.

"... It seems that there is." Deep Techamon informed.

A.J. and Feranin League looked into the horizon and saw what appeared like to be strange houses and in the middle of the town was a flag, with the crest of courage in the center of the flag and the background white.

"Land there AJmon. Once we're all down, you'll all return to your juvenile forms." A.J. decided.

"Good. I want to stretch out!" Deep Techamon exclaimed.

AJmon was quick in finding an open meadow on the top of the hill, in front of what appeared to be the town, away from the farms. AJmon landed down into the meadow and everyone dismounted him. Starspark dismounted AJmon by himself. Rather than landing on the ground, Lunal landed on A.J.'s right shoulder. With a double glow of green lights, AJmon shrunk and Deep Techamon grew. Both charges returned to A.J.'s univice.

AJmon returned in Ememon and Deep Techamon returned in Equalmon. Equalmon stamped his right front hoof into the grassy meadow a few times, happy to be able to stretch out again. After a few moments passed, Equalmon stopped his stamping of his hoof and glanced down to his left. He saw Starspark staring back at him. Equalmon chuckled and understood what Starspark wanted. He nodded his head in permission and Starspark leapt onto Equalmon.

Starspark quickly regained his balance and held onto Equalmon...

---

With Feranin League together once more, the league stared ahead into the town, but a creature was staring back at them, from inside the town.

"Welcoming committee?" Emeraldmon asked.

The creature turned around and motioned to Feranin League for them to follow him. He started walking away. The soul-warriors all glanced at A.J., A.J. shrugged in return.

"Why not? Let's follow him." He decided.

The creature continued on walking into the town, but he glanced behind him and saw the league following him. He smiled, nodding, and continued on towards a specific structure. The creature continued on walking until he stopped in front of a structure momentarily, waiting for Feranin League to catch up with him. Feranin League all stopped behind the creature.

"Where's the door?" Equalmon asked.

The creature grinned and stopped into the structure, an opening vanished and the creature had entered the structure. Once stepping in, the creature glanced back at Feranin League and waited for them to step in; they all eventually did...

---

With Equalmon being the last to enter, the light in the structure had suddenly vanished. Feranin League turned around and the opening had vanished.

"I don't like this." Zonemon whispered, all tense.

The rest of the league, except for A.J., was all alert and tense.

"Would the Mystic Sailor please take his shoes off?" A male voice asked.

A.J. narrowed an eye, but complied. He bent his knees and undid his shoes, taking them off and putting them aside. The inner structure was all of what looked like living organisms, which natively grew and thrived in Meric Land. The living organism was known to every resident in Meric Land as Biovesto. It was the only building material that was used to build shelters, sparing all trees and other building materials.

Biovesto had its own defense from outside hostility and its own internal natural light. The cudilas was lit well. A few holographs were apparent on the wall opposite of the organic door, with two figures in the room: one sitting down in front of the monitors and the other was standing not too far behind from the first. The color of the Biovesto was a double mixture of dark green and black, with sparkles of light green spotted randomly around the organ.

A.J. eventually recognized the biovesto. Under his feet, the biolure felt alive; cushy, and slippery. Feranin League stayed close to each other in the empty room. Another organic door opened up and a new creature appeared, with the organic door closing behind him. The first creature was still there. For a few moments, the second creature stared at Feranin League and eventually smiled to himself.

"My name is White Fox and you all must be Feranin League. No need to introduce yourselves; I already know all of you by name. I was close friends with Misterim..." White Fox paused, in memory of the deceased human.

"... No need to be afraid of me or of White Hulman." White Fox informed, nodding towards the first creature. "You all have my personal word that you won't be harmed here in Resolve Town. Please, follow me."

White Fox and White Hulman walked off of the room, from the same entrance White Fox had entered. They vanished with the biovesto door closing behind them. Feranin League just stood there for a few moments, confused and not sure of whether to take White Fox's assurance of them, as in the town residence, not harming the league.

"So this is Resolve Town." A.J. muttered.

"I don't trust that White Fox, or that White Hulman." Zonemon informed.

"From since we met at the entrance of this town, White Hulman hasn't spoken with us." Equalmon agreed.

"What do you think A.J.?" Ememon asked.

"Both would keep to their words. We'll be safe and secure in this town. Besides, we need the rest with all the fighting and moving around, especially since Misterim died. This structure is made out of Biovesto, which thrives back in Meric Land." A.J. explained.

The soul-warriors glanced around them in the room. There were a few windows in the room, made out of a thin layer of biovesto. With the windows, the room was well lighted, mostly from the light coming through the windows. One could look outside through the windows, but from the outside, nobody could see the inside. The thin layer of biovesto that was the windows, prevented any outside hostility or weather to enter through them.

At night, the light from the organic walls would be the only night. The lights were permanently on, on the walls.

"Really?" Emeraldmon questioned.

A.J. nodded. "I'm sure none of you have ever noticed, but I had been doing some study on biovesto back when I was younger. The Emerald Mansion is completely made out of biovesto for all your knowledge." He informed.

"... What? Emerald Mansion's completely made out of this?" Zonemon asked.

"You better believe it." A.J. replied.

"... White Fox and White Hulman have waited long enough. Maybe they'll be able to tell us about the abilities that the mysterious charges have; the reason 'why' they're mysterious. I for one am going in, with or without the rest of you." A.J. decided, walking towards the organic door.

The soul-warriors glanced at each other and silently decided on following A.J. Silently, they followed A.J. out of the room and into the next...

---

The next room was larger than the first. The organic door closed behind the soul-warriors, with them pausing with A.J. to glance around the room. The room appeared to be completely made of biovesto and appeared to be White Fox's Study.

There was a biovesto desk; biovesto seats; biovesto table, and biovesto bookcase with a book and CD place on it. Unlike the room before it, White Fox's Study didn't have any windows, and was completely dependent on the natural light coming from the walls. White Fox was sitting in one of the organic seats, seated near the organic table. White Hulman was standing next to him with his arms behind his back in attention.

White Fox waited for Feranin League to swallow in the site and when he saw them staring at him, he nodded.

"Please White Hulman, take care of Lunal and Starspark. I would like to talk with the others about some stuff. Not to mention a friend of mine might arrive anytime soon." He requested.

White Hulman nodded and walked over to Lunal and Starspark. Starspark sensed he could trust White Hulman, as did Lunal. Ever gently, White Hulman carried Starspark in his hands and motioned Lunal to follow him. The owl nodded and flapped its wings into the air. White Hulman walked away, to what apparently was a second organic door and walked through the entrance, with Lunal flying behind him. All three disappeared with the organic door reappearing.

"Please, take a seat Feranin League." White Fox requested.

"... What about me?" Equalmon asked.

White Fox pointed out at a seat nearby, near the organic table, suitable for quadruples like Equalmon. Equalmon nodded and trotted towards his seat. A.J.; Emeraldmon; Zonemon, and Ememon all took seats around the organic table.

---

"You can all rest here in my home for as long as all of you like. You all must be hungry. I'll wait for..." White Fox started.

He stopped upon noticing a codelimin entering the room from the first organic door. White Fox immediately stood up, smiling. A.J. and his soul-warrior copedam turned to see the new arriver. Emeraldmon's eyes widened and when the new codelimin noticed Emeraldmon, his own eyes went wide. A.J. noticed the surprise from the two, and narrowed his eyes is suspicion. White Fox noticed as well and chuckled.

"Feranimon, meet Feranin League. White Hulman is taking care of Lunal and Starspark." White Fox informed.

"... I just returned with my army from our raid against the crolands." Feranimon informed, with his eyes still on Emeraldmon.

Emeraldmon also kept his eyes on Feranimon. Curious with the whole staring, A.J. checked his univice for information on Feranimon.

"Feranimon - Mythical Jerebi Muzon - Passing the mate level, Feranimon is the next form of Otazoidmon, after Siromon. He's a powerful veteran, naturally skilled in numerous abilities, and naturally fluent in English; Twilasin; Arabic; French, and Spanish - His attack are: Stars of Heaven; Charm of a Paladin; Mythical Twinkle."

Upon finding out Feranimon's analysis, A.J. understood the stare between Emeraldmon and Feranimon. Feranimon's eyes turned gentle and he smiled.

"It's nice to meet fellow brothers." He greeted, smiling.

Emeraldmon smiled and nodded.

"Some here brother." He replied.

"... Crolands?" Equalmon inquired.

"Before you start, please, take a seat." White Fox offered.

Feranimon nodded and took a vacant seat around the table.

"Crolands were once a peaceful specie, resembling a Gran Kuwagamon, but with differences. Lately though, a corrupt; evil croland marshaled as many crolands as he encountered, forming a formidable army. The army killed thousands of innocents all over Realm of Charges, setting fires in forests and creating mischief whenever and wherever they could. With all of us born here in Realm of Charges, fellow brothers and sisters of mine came together.

"We gathered here in Resolve Town and I was elected 'general' of the army. I named the army after you A.J.: Actonal Army. With news reaching far in this world, residents pulled up either in Resolve Town, or in its suburbs, under Actonal Army protection. In recent years, we fought fires that the crolands made and regained land that they had conquered, with us now raiding their own land.

"With each skirmish we faced against the crolands, any unit in Actonal Army, whether alone or with help, gained experience and evolved to our highest form. None of us keep count of our kills against the crolands, but it obvious that they're still reproducing somehow. We don't have any intelligence on their current populace number or reproduction rate. It took years, but I eventually evolved into Feranimon, from Siromon." Feranimon explained

"Crolands? As in Crovinze Lands?" A.J. inquired.

"An excellent note there. Yes, you could say that. None of us know where the name came from, but their armor, or rather exo-skeleton, is as strong as crovinze." Feranimon replied...

---

A male gnome entered the room from the first organic door. White Fox immediately stood up, alarmed. A.J. and his soul-warrior copedam turned to see the new arriver, with Feranimon noticing the alarmed and scared look from the gnome. Feranimon stood up, immediately knowing the problem. Without any words, Feranimon rushed out of the room and disappeared.

"What is it?" White Fox asked.

"Crolands... tens of thousands of them." The gnome replied.

"They're trying to overwhelm Resolve Town with numbers." White Fox muttered.

"We need to help them!" A.J. declared.

"But without Emeraldmon! He needs to regain his energy from the intense fighting he was in. The rest of you can go. White Hulman would know how to treat you Emeraldmon. I'm coming with the rest of you A.J." White Fox decided.

"Like I can stop you." A.J. remarked, standing up.

Zonemon; Equalmon, and Ememon all stood up from the seats and rushed out with A.J. and White Fox. Left behind, Emeraldmon sighed...

---

Once out of his home, White Fox rushed straight towards the noises of battle. Before disappearing from Feranin League's sight, White Fox changed form from a bipedal, to a quadruple. A.J. sighed.

"I guess to survive, this town needs all the help available. Do your stuff soul-warriors!" A.J. yelled, his univice glowing green.

"ZONEMON CREVOLVE!"
"... CENTERMON!"

"EMEMON CREVOLVE!"
"... PRIMON!"

"Dicrenol! Golden Destiny!" A.J. yelled, releasing Equalmon's charge of destiny.

"EQUALMON CHARGE!"
"... DEEP TECHAMON! Mythical Destiny."

Taking to the air, Primon and Deep Techamon flew towards the noises of battle, while A.J. rode on Centermon. With A.J. mounted on him, Centermon galloped towards the noises of battle. Primon reached the battle first, with utter chaos occurring. He was the first to reach it, being a natural flyer. Next came Deep Techamon, flying pass Primon and going into the offense. Following his lead, Primon shook his head and went into the fray.

Centermon was the last to reach the battle and he stopped, allowing A.J. to dismount. A.J. dismounted and with A.J. off of him, Centermon galloped into the fray. A.J. saw a few new codelimin and used his univice to analyze them.

"Jerebimon - Humanoid Jerebi Mate - Jerebimon are skilled veterans and are usually scouts of Actonal Army. They are naturally skilled in all martial arts and melee weapons, and are naturally fluent in English; Twilasin; Hebrew; Japanese; all types of Chinese; Russian; German; Italian and Danish - Their attacks are: Divine Crest; Cliffs of Legend; Emeralds of the Sky."

"Aero Jerebimon - Mythical Jerebi Charge - Using the mysterious charge of atmosphere, chosen Otazoidmon mystery charge into Aero Jerebimon. They are the air force of Actonal Army - Their attacks are: Knight Missile; Flak Fire; Stars of Legend."

"Jerebiwomon - Humanoid Jerebi Mate - Jerebiwomon are skilled meds and are usually the medics of Actonal Army. Only chosen Shetamon become Jerebiwomon. They are naturally fluent in all Native American languages; Greek; ancient Egyptian and all native African languages including aborigines - Their attacks are: Divine Beauty; Cliffs of Passion; Diamonds of the Sky."

With the analyses finished, A.J. rushed into the fray and instantly was attacked by numerous crolands. However, with his skill in Kestir; Seltic, and weaves, A.J. was able to avoid all injures from the crolands. Deciding on going into the offense, A.J. spun around himself, warning all crolands away from him. Once he was safe for the moment, A.J. stopped spinning, instantly recovering from the spin. He summoned Emeraldsnow, and had the ownalis flame emerge with his blade.

Since ownalis is capable of destroying and penetrating crovinze, A.J. easily slashed through every croland that dared to approach him with skill and battle-dominance. With the combined might of Feranin League; Actonal Army, and White Fox, the battle had turned against the crolands, with them gaining heavy loses. Deciding on a silent autonomous withdrawal, the crolands started withdrawing, surprisingly organized.

However, Feranin League and Actonal Army hunted them until only several crolands were left from the start of tens of thousands of crolands, and until they were at a safe distance away from the suburbs of Resolve Town. With the Battle of Resolve over, Feranin League; Actonal Army, and White Fox regrouped back in Resolve Town, with White Fox in his previous bipedal form. A.J. and Feranin League were grouped together, while Feranimon stared at A.J.

"... Thanks for your help. We couldn't have done it without you." Feranimon stated.

A.J. shrugged. "I just am thankful to Allah that we're victorious over them."

"Indeed. Where the crolands lost their numbers greatly, no casualties happened in Actonal Army." Feranimon informed.

"And Feranin League is still in contact." Primon smiled.

"You know A.J., it was obvious that the crolands saw you as the weakest link." One of the Jerebimon stated, riding his green unicorn and holding the Actonal Army Flag.

Feranimon nodded in agreement.

"This is Nick. The general and most experienced Jerebimon amongst the Jerebimon. He's also the flag carrier for the army." He introduced.

"Do you all always ride on those green unicorns into battle?" Deep Techamon asked.

Nick smiled. "We sure do. We're experienced in battling without them, but we prefer to be mounted on them." He explained.

"I came to realize that besides Feranin League and Actonal Army, there aren't any other codelimin. I mean the rest of the populace is fairies; elves; dwarves; gnomes; trolls; goblins, and even some humans." A.J. noted.

"None of them are warriors. Since we codelimin are natural warriors, we became the town's protector." Feranimon explained.

"From what Nick first said, amongst Feranin League, A.J. is the most experienced and probably the most skilled human. He isn't the leader of Feranin League though." Primon informed.

"What?" White Fox asked, silent until then.

Primon smiled. "I'm the leader. A.J. allowed it himself. It was his decision. Besides, A.J. is already feranin of Crescent League."

"That was unexpected on my part." White Fox muttered.

"Some here." Feranimon agreed.

"We'd like to join you and become your personal army, separate from Feranin League though." Nick decided.

Feranimon nodded in agreement.

"What about the crolands?" Centermon asked.

Feranimon shook his head. "They lost such a huge number from this one battle. They've learnt their lesson. Now, those crolands that the evil; corrupt croland marshaled would desert him and other crolands would refuse to join him or support him. Their threat is neutralized and they will return to their peaceful selves." He explained.

"We'll rest and wait for your next orders Feranimon." Nick informed.

With that, Actonal Army went into the town and went into separate directions. Feranimon; Feranin League, and White Fox were left alone.

"Let's head back to my home. Let's see what's up with Emeraldmon. Also, there's a few stuff I'd like to share with you." White Fox decided.

A.J. nodded and the gathered group walked back in silent towards White Fox's home...

---

While White Fox; Feranin League, and Feranimon were out, White Hulman brought some lasagna to Emeraldmon, for him to regain some of his energy. After two slices, Emeraldmon glowed and went transparent, growing. He evolved back into Otazoidmon and had three more plates of lasagna. With his energy back and full, Otazoidmon put his head down onto the organic table and closed his eyes, resting a bit. White Hulman was busy cleaning and washing dishes.

Otazoidmon rested himself only for a few moments. Deciding on looking around the house, after his rest, Otazoidmon went towards the organic door that White Hulman constantly used, and had brought Lunal and Starspark through. The organic door reappeared behind him, with him entering what appeared to be the kitchen. The water was running and White Hulman was washing dishes.

"Where are Lunal and Starspark?" Otazoidmon asked.

White Hulman put down the dish he was washing and turned off the water. He pointed to where they were and Otazoidmon looked in the direction White Hulman pointed at. He saw Starspark cuddled up around himself, sleeping in a cat's bed and Lunal was resting, probably sleeping even, on a wooden perch. Otazoidmon noticed both Starspark's and Lunal's stomachs heaving, and so he knew that they were alive.

Seconds later and Otazoidmon heard White Hulman dealing with the dishes and the water running. Assured of his comrade's and friend's safety, Otazoidmon walked out back into White Fox's Study, and his skin nearly jumped out of his body. White Fox; Feranin League, and Feranimon fell silent with Otazoidmon entering. After Otazoidmon's recovery, White Fox was the first to speak.

"I see White Hulman has dealt you well." He observed.

Otazoidmon blinked, reluctantly nodding. He took a vacant seat with them. Feranimon patted Otazoidmon's back.

"How are you brother?" Feranimon asked.

"You know, it seems there are a lot of Otazoidmon, so just call me Comet or Perch. About your question, I feel like I can take on a herd of Mammothmon." Otazoidmon replied.

"That's good to hear." Feranimon smiled.

"What was it you wanted to share with me?" A.J. asked.

"Well, you saw my quadruple form, right?" White Fox asked.

A.J. nodded.

"That's a stronger, more powerful form of me. I call myself White Warrior in that form. I basically use one attack in battles, with the attack called 'White Return'. Also, I think you'll be interested in some things I have." White Fox explained, standing up.

He walked to his bookcase and opened a closed drawer.

"Some things happened while you were regaining your energy and you'll eventually find out, either by seeing it for yourself or by me telling you." Ememon whispered.

Otazoidmon glanced at Ememon and nodded.

"O.K." He muttered.

White Fox returned, carrying what looked like two charges and went back to the now opened drawer in his bookcase. A.J. restrained himself from taking a closer look and noticing their sailor's restraint; they themselves restrained themselves from taking a closer look at the charges. White Fox returned, with the drawer of his bookcase closed, and with him carrying two more charges. He put them down with the rest of the charges on the organic table.

"Your charges of myths." White Fox informed, smiling.

A.J.'s eyes widened and he let himself take a closer look, with his soul-warrior copedam allowing themselves to look as well. There were four in all, and it was hard to tell which charge went to which soul-warrior copedam. One was a miniature of a dark green closed robe with green leather gloves attached to it, a miniature black tail like a lion was connected to the miniature dark green robe. The crest of myths was outlined in light green on the gloves, on the outside.

Another was in a saddle form, which could easily be guessed who it belonged to, with the crest of myths outline in green on the saddle's knees. The third charge of myths was a black charcoal with black armor in the upper front, the divine crest of myths was on it in dark green. A fourth was a dark green torso armor with three spikes charged and pulsing with ownalis, the spikes were carved upwards then towards the front.

The crest of myths was outlined in green, below the spikes, on the torso armor. A.J. and his four soul-warrior copedam were amazed by the charges. A.J. touched each and everyone of them, with them hastily turning into green fractal code and swirling into A.J.'s univice, storing themselves there, until A.J. activated them.

"I'll tell you, they weren't easy to get." White Fox informed.

"... Thanks for risking your life for them." A.J. thanked.

White Fox shrugged. "No big deal."

"Speaking of charges, I have a few questions to ask about some 'mysterious' charges." A.J. informed...
