Jimbo had recently announced that World Aircraft would be landing back home to World Airport to take a break from flying.

It was also a good time for Dizzy to take some fresh air after a monthly amount of work.

However, she wanted to explore the fields outside of World Airport and see what's beyond it, since no Super Wing has gone there yet, but she was told to stay near base just in case something happened.

Landing on the greens, Dizzy lied on the grass and stared at the clouds floating in the blue. She remembered doing this with a Super Wing, giggling at funny shapes and counting them until they lost count once a mass of atmospherical fluff floated through afterwards.

Unfortunately, the sky was just a bright blue and the sun glared at the helicopter instead.

Rising up, Dizzy faced the countryside, ignoring the obnoxious rhythm of traffic honking in a distorted tune behind her. The helicopter sighed, setting a small bucket down next to her feet and took out a petite bubble wand. She stared at the 2D shape of the wand, the plastic green shining across its rim.

A light wind brushed through Dizzy, as she began to splash her wand onto the bucket. She dipped it several times until enough water filled the fan shape of her wand.

Dizzy scanned the horizon and searched for the right path to blow her bubbles.

The wind began to increase its speed at each interval.

While steadying her breath, the helicopter confirmed her correct path, and locked the wand's position on her lips.

Steady your breath. Slow and steady like a sea turtle.

Dizzy closed her eyes, pushing her concentration over to her breathing.

She huffed and puffed audibly, as the wind began to twirl the helicopter's rotors.

"I dream your still here~"

"Mi—!", Dizzy twirled around and expected a surprising visit from the seaplane herself, but frowned at the sight of Sunny, gracefully leaping across the greens and singing in a voice reminiscing that of a Super Wing that left after the SuperCharge project. "Oh. Hey Sunny. Nice performance you did there.", Dizzy commented.

"Aw thanks, Dizzy! But it's just a morning warm up, though."

"Yet it's still nice, Sunny."

"Yeah! Hey, what are you doing out here, Dizzy? Normally I don't see Super Wings go out here."

Dizzy took a peek at the countryside behind her, "Well, uh, I'm just curious, that's all."

Sunny spotted something on the helicopter's hand, darting on the bucket afterwards, "Ooh! Lemme guess: are you actually blowing bubbles?"

"Yeah, I am. Do you want to try?"

"Sure!", Sunny made a prized smile.

As Dizzy turned away from the sunlight, Sunny sat by her side, waiting for her turn to blow bubbles. The dancer watched as Dizzy dipped her wand on the bucket several times, its center shape filled with water after numerous dips. She locked the wand at the same path as before, steadying her breath as slow as a sea turtle.

Once a minute passed, Dizzy blowed on the wand as a multitude of bubbles came out from the wand, floating across from the Super Wings.

Sunny wowed at the sight and requested a turn for Dizzy, the latter soon approving her excitement. With the wand on hand, the dancer began dipping it on the bucket with rhythmic splashes. In seconds, Sunny blew on the wand, with few bubbles coming out.
