You get to the big wooden door at the base of the tower and pull it open and inside you see a dark spiral staircase and then you and Psykid look at each other and nod and you both walk up the stairs into the shadows and then suddenly you see a big scary shadow with big horns and a long tail and a long tongue and sharp teeth and big wings!

You can't help crying out!

"Ram-ram!"

"Tamounda!"

"Lottatax!"

"ONNNN-"

"Cutémon!"

The big scary shadow turns into a bunch of shadows and then you see Ramster, Tamounda, Lottatax, Onlion, and Ekro in front of a door at the top of the stairs! You run up the stairs and crouch down and give them all a hug and-

"I said this was forbidden!" What? The Empress is here? When you look over your shoulder behind Psykid you see the Empress, Auroara, Aura, Prima, and Rori all coming up the stairs! Everyone starts shouting at each other and-

[SFX: door creaking]

Suddenly the door at the top of the stairs opens behind Onlion and you see Joe!

As soon as Joe sees you he says "We don't need to hold a tournament."

Everyone stops shouting and looks at Joe and then the Empress says "How will you choose the victor?"

Joe shakes his head and says "I don't need to." Joe turns toward you and looks down at you and looks at the Empress.

"I love Cutémon."


Cutémon LOVE up!

Cutémon energy up!



BODY: 2
MIND: 2
LOVE: 3


You can't help looking into Joe's eyes! Even though you're trying to look into Joe's eyes, you have to keep blinking because you're so happy! You keep looking into Joe's eyes and-

"Where are we?"

Suddenly you look around and see Auroara looking at you and then Auroara grins at you and Joe and then Aura and Prima look at each other and Rori looks at Auroara and says "That spaceship hit us with something."

Aura nods and glances at Prima again. "Do you remember anything, Prima?"

Prima nods and looks at Rori. "An arc of energy split the spaceship open from within. It did not seem intentional, Aura."

"Ram-ram!"

Everyone looks at Ramster pointing out a window and when you look out the window you see the enormous crystal pillar that you fell out of is glowing brighter! Aura grabs you and you fly out the window toward the enormous crystal pillar and then she floats down in front of it until your feet touch the ground and then you all look up at it and-

"Tamounda!"

You all look at Tamounda and see him looking at the Empress and then you see the Empress fade away and disappear and then you see the big castle and the tower and the hedge maze all fade away until all that's left is the enormous crystal pillar!

Joe looks at you and says "Do you remember what happened with Professor Ginger?"

It seems like this is really important! Do you remember what happened?

"Psykid hit her with the crystal!"

"The crystal?"

"The one my friend gave me."
