I am back, with the next part at last:
----------------------------------
"The book has to be somewhere down here." Yapi said, leading LD into a hallway.
"...but it can be anywhere on this ship. Do you know it will take without getting some leads?" LD asked.
"We don't have time." Yapi replied.
LD sighed. "But isn't that why we should try to find some hints?"
"...do what you want." Yapi said. "I'll check the lower decks, you check the upper. Okay?"
"Sure." LD replied.
Yapi nodded, then took off. First in a run, then she jumped and let her wings catch the air. She sped down the corridor at the speed of a gale and vanished quickly behind a corner.
LD sighed, and reached for the first door to his left. His hand reached the knob. He slowly turned the knob, and let the door slowly creak open.
There was nothing inside as far as he could see, except for darkness.
LD walked further in and reached into his hat. Using a cell phone he had stashed underneath it, he flipped it open and turned on it's light.
LD gasped at what lay hidden inside the room. Gold bars lined the floors and walls. It was filled with crates, barrels and chests, all filled with gems and jewels.
His mouth opened up wide, as his skateboard fell with a clang on the golden floor.
"The treasure room... I'm rich." he said, first with dis-belief. A the clock ticked, a huge grin appeared on his face. "I'm rich!"
He took his cell phone and switched on a ring tone. Placing it on the floor, LD began to dance, forgetting all about the fact that he left the door wide open.

Enrique held the ship's wheel tight. All of the chaos that was occurring up on deck was make it very hard to hold the ship in place.
There was a quick rumbling sound, followed by a mini-earthquake. The sounds of weapons crashing could be heard, as well as the ocean waves crashing on the two ships with every little explosion above.
"...how much longer do you think we can keep this up?" John asked.
"We have to do it." Enrique said, straining to keep the wheel. From behind them, a little bit of dust fell from the ceiling as the battle continued.
"Besides, we can defend him if they get down here." Teo said, nudging toward John and Eloeem.
From the end of the room, one of the doors suddenly burst open. A mean looking one from the other side lowered his foot, satisfied with his kick.
"...it's him." John said.
It was the principal, standing there. He gave them annoyed looks. He smugly fixed his tie as he walked toward them.
"...at last, I caught up to you. Attacking me..." he pointed to John, who gasped. "Damaging school property." he pointed to Teo. "And skipping school." His last point went to Enrique, who failed to notice because he was too focused on keep the wheel steady.
"We need to protect the
Majestua, at all costs." Teo said. "...but this room is too small for me to become a dragon."
"The controls in here and fragile." John added.
"...so, I guess we need to be careful." Eloeem said.
He drew his two swords, as John and Teo held up their fists.
---------------------------------
Lava didn't want to look back, though he realized who it was when he heard his voice.
"...Demon. So nice of you to come back." Lava said.
"I wish I could say the same for you." Demon said.
"HIYA!"
Treyba's battle cry was soon followed by the sounds of struggling. Lava found a break an released himself from Demon's grasp. He turned and saw his three friends, struggling to keep Demon restrained.
In the meantime, Lava revealed his key-blade. Without much time to react before Demon would free himself, he took the key and slammed it into the prison door. The door broke open due to the force. he watched as the two prisoners slowly began to awaken.
In a quiet voice one of them asked: "...what is the world is going on?"
"Well, we-" Lava was interrupted as a hand abruptly pulled him back into his battle.
Lava twisted as he walked, until he used his key-blade to intercept Demon's sneak attack.
Velvet T pulled out a small weapon that appeared to be a gun of sorts. She fired it and sent a clear shot right at Demon. However, he simply arose his kunei knife and deflected the projectile.
"...no way." She replied.
Lava ran ahead, taking his key-blade and slamming it into Demon's side. Again, this blow was deflected by a simple swish of his knife.
"He's got unmatched blocking skills with his knives and a ton of knives to spare. Our best bet is to disarm him. he doesn't appear to be much with his weapons." Fantasy guy said, as he observed his movements.
All of the while, the two prisoners looked at each other.
"...how did I get here?" the taller, more fearsome looking one asked.
<Not sure.> the smaller one thought.
"Whoa, you can telepathically talk?" the taller asked.
<Yes. I am a chao after all.> The smaller one said. <You may call me Charon. You are...>
"My name is Jay Tanoshi. You may call me Jay, if you want." the taller one said.
<Ah, a dragon.> Charon said. <...now that that's settled, do you have any idea just how we got in this place?>
"Not a clue." Jay said. "One minute, I'm flying over a city, then the next, I am here."
<I was with a friend of mine. I can't explain how, but I ended up trapped here.> Charon said.
Jay looked up, to spot the battle going on outside of his cell.
"We need to do something." Jay said.
<But we don't even know if they are good or evil.> Charon added.
"That one over there..." Jay said, gesturing to the one with the key-blade. "...he freed us from the cell. We should help."
<Works for me.> Charon said. The two of them slowly got up, then rushed into the fray.
----------------------------
John rushed ahead first, running toward the principal.
"Just like old times." the principal said. Before John could even emit as much as a swing of a fist, the principal grabbed his arm, an twisted it. John let out a yell of agony.
In this mess, John quickly spun, and made the principal release his grip. In that instant, John swung another fist. This one made a clear connection right on th principal's face.
"Right on, nice punch." Teo said, cheering on his friend.
However, John sudden gave out a shout. In the next instant, he was spinning on the wooden floor. he gave one last sigh and gave up the fight.
Teo gasped, then ran toward the principal.
"...what are you going to do?" the principal taunted.
Teo growled and let his eyes turn into his dragon's eyes, with huge teeth coming from his mouth.
The principal gasped.
"Unless you want me to complete my transformation, I suggest you leave now. Teo said, with both fists out.
"Do the math, there isn't enough room in here. Then again, you never where that good at math." the principal said.
"What are you talking about?" Teo asked, making his face return to normal. "...I am a great-"
How was quickly interrupted as he skidded on the floor from the principal's fists.
"Speaking of math, I believe you are next in line, Enrique." the principal said.
Enrique still hadn't noticed, he was too busy holding the ship's wheel.
"No, I am." Eloeem said.
It was the first time the principal realized there was a fifth person in the room. "Who the heck are you?"
Eloeem held up his swords. "I may not be that strong, but I know I got to keep you from beating us."
"So, you think you are a tough guy?" the principal asked.
"I know I am not strong." Eloeem said. "But I'm fast, and for now, that's all it will take. I don't condone violence, but I know that this entire mission rests on the protection of the Majestusa."
"...well then, shall be begin our duel?" the principal asked.
-------------------------------------
I swear I'll have more of Yoshee, Champ, Yin, and Moshi in the next one. I will get it done as soon as I can
