After a while, Wolfe arrives next to Trixi. He saw Jane sound asleep next to her. "You're really good with kids." He said. Trixi looks back at him. "Thanks." She said. "How come though?" Asked Wolfe. Trixi sighs. "I cannot stand seeing a child suffer. They need love, not kaos." "Tell me about it." Wolfe groaned. He sits down next to her as well. "Growing up, me and Zara did nothing but fight to survive. We don't know anything about love. What is love anyways?" "To me, its feeling for someone." Said Trixi. "Feeling sorry for them. Trust, compassion, maybe... I don't know. I don't think I know what love is either." Wolfe and Trixi sat with one another for a while and talked to one another to pass the time. Meanwhile, Cyclone and Maladar were in their own areas themselves. Cyclone was doing tricks with his pistol. Maladar sat with his arms crossed with a smirk. "Are you trying to out-do your shadow?" He asked. "Mic told me about this technique a while back." Said Cyclone. "He calls it a 'quickdraw.' He said it's what people did back in the nineteenth century or something like that." Maladar rolls his eyes with a slight smile. "That cowboy." He said referring to Mic. "How is your head?" Cyclone holsters his pistol. "It feels better!" Said Cyclone. "I don't feel much of anything anymore." He sits down with Maladar. He suddenly felt lost about the situation everyone was in. "How can we stop them?" He asked. "If we still had Shannon and the Mainian, we would've had a better chance. What if- what if we we can't stop them?" Maladar stairs straight ahead. "We'll stop them." He said. "We just need to be patient." "But how long will that take?" Asked Cyclone. "The Couragians need our help." Maladar explained. "They must have food and water. And we need supplies. We really need an army. Warpaint's army isn't enough." Suddenly, Cyclone gets an idea. "What if- what if we convince the Couragians to help us?" Maladar looks back at him with doubt. "They're too afraid. There is no way they'll help us." Cyclone then remembers the tales Maladar used to tell him when he was little. "Do you remember how Courage Island got its name? Remember what you told me?" Maladar looks ahead again, but listens. "Courage Island got its name, when the Couragians fought for the Island no matter what. Men, women, children, Courage Island was Courageous back then. Why not now?" Maladar remembers everything. He looks back at Cyclone and pats him on the back. "You're a wise kid, Ben." Cyclone smiles. "The name is Cyclone. Cyclone Dynamite!" Maladar stands up. "Let's ask them." He said. Cyclone and Maladar walked around to gather the rest of the Gang to let them know their plans.
