Tigeress and Luca led their families to the spa, where Gabuna and the others wee waiting in the mineral waters. Tigeress was the first of the 5 wolves to arriven(Arlene had taken Oliver and Ollie to the convention room to get some sleep) and slid into the baths next to Gabuna. "oh.. ' she said' this is real nice, as an almost arctic smell to it too.' " winter Pine, its called' Gabuna said, pulling out some blue foam from the mineral baths and showing it to her. Hi, Miss Gabuna" Flash waved from Tigeress shoulder.' Hi Flash. how was movie night?" Gabuna smiled ' Lots of fun! Chases with Wolves was awesome!' flash grinned, showing her teeth. ' You watch movies much?" No, unfortunately. We do have Digi-Films, but they are mostly action stuff" Gabuna replied. ' well, you can come along with us the next time ' Flash said eagerly. " thats very sweet of you. Unfortunately, working with Stripetail doesnt leave much free time while on the job.' Gabuna sighed.' The next free time I have, I have girl time with,Dulcy. Agumina, Ember and Dixie,along with Korin and both Cynders." What about my mom? Flash said " well, she can come along as well.' Like you are leaving me out of anything?' Tigeress said with a big grin. ' Bring Luca in as well, that would give us 10. 2 groups of 5 for golf." definitely' Gabuna nodded As Luca and Mona climbed into the pool. " You up for golf? Gabuna asked Luca. " Well after my challenge with Tigress here' Luca smiled "I'm Luca'" I'm Gabuna. Nice to meet you" Gabuna said. " This hot tub is great' Luca said " mineral bath. Its something more like a bubble bath anyway' Agumina said. Mona went over to Gabumon. ' Hi Mister Gabumon ' She said ' Hi there' Gabumon said, smiling at the red wolf pup. " How are you doing?' Great! I'm enjoying the tub' Mona said, and she jumped on the blue digimon's shoulders and Gabumon chuckled and patted her head.

"Can I pick out the movie?'Flash asked. " as long as its not action, action, action." Gabuna said. Yay!' Flash said.

Ember and Cynder walked down the path towards the shrine, the smell of incense reaching their nostrils " we must be near the temple' Ember said, taking Cynder's claw in hers, as they walked into the shrine. Inside, attendants were walking around, lighting candles, and sticks of incense. In the middle of the temple stood a large statue of ozai, a sword clasped his hand ' Ozai was a warrior , before he founded sumo. Not many venerate this aspect of him.' said an attendant as he came up to the dragonesses " Most go for the sumo aspects, or the afterlife. We here focus on Military Ozai, most of it deals with his conquests of Mawashii. There is very little history in our world that doesn't involve him, although the world itself is at least 100 million years old. " So Ozai is 100 million years old?" Ember asked. " No, we put his age between 10,000 and 20,000 years of age. Unlike most of the afterlife sects, we don't put credence into the claims that he created the world, or lives at the center of the planet. Frankly the only sect I have much use for, is the Tower sect. They at least base their beliefs on what we can readily vouch for. Military Ozai, focuses on Ozai's leadership, and skill in battle. Tonight, in fact we are marking the battle of Three Mountains' A large bell was rung three times, and at each chime, The attendants stood and saluted the statue in crisp movements.' That done, the attendants turned to Ember and Cynder "So, I presume you have heard of Ozai before? " Yes, I was one of a group that competed in a Mawashii sumo tournament recently ' Cynder said. " Ah, so you were one of the Seer's group, then? yes, that was widely reported over Mawashii, that a group of space travelers joined the contest and did rather well. There was even talk that the seer and Ozai had a wager going, but I dispute that. Wagers and gambling are beneath our leader.' the attendant, whose name was Furst, said. "We greatly respect the Seer of course, He helped Ozai conquer the planet and helped him set up the system we know and enjoy today. So If you are a friend of his, then we are honored to have you here with us this evening. And who is this lady accompanying you? sister? Friend? Lover, perhaps? We Mawashiians don;t judge..' Ember blushed as Furst looked closely at her. "Lover' Cynder said, and Ember blushed even more ' now thats been put out of the way, we have to be going." Please, take this with you' Furst said, bringing out a book called 'Mawashii Conquered: the Battlefields of Mawashii', he presented a copy to both Ember and Cynder " I would be remiss if I did not give you something for attending our little ceremony." " er.. thanks';' Ember said, and gave Cynder a " lets get out of here!" look.

Just be careful " Stripetail said to the Vaalbaran as he walked around the store. " I'll be in the store here, if anyone needs me. Stripetail looked over at a table near a shelf, on which rested a piece of ore' Stripetail picked up the ore, took a seat, and began transforming the ore.. ' hmm what to make out of this.. hmm. i know what I'll do, and a certain black-maned prince will like the result" he said, and began slicing at the transformed ore, which now had the color and texture of putty.
