Claws stuck out of the gloves Jessica wore, she put her hands up as Shawn held his sword up high to strike. 

Cole went in between them both and put his hands out to distance them both, he exchanged his glance between them both before he spoke.

"Woah woah okay! Okay let's all just relax. Shawn this is Jessica, Jessica this is Shawn. I know you both don't know each other, but we need to work together!" 

Cole stepped out of their way and saw two guardimons approaching. Shawn and Jessica nodded at each other before facing the two guardimons. Cole held the mini crossbow up. 

The three of them would make their way on the outskirts of the arena to an area with sand structures, some intact while others were broken. They seemed to be currently under the radar. 

There was a structure that someone could go in, a potential hiding spot. The three of them rushed inside the structure and looked around, there was barely any light, the only light came from the entrance of the structure. 

The crowd got more excited. Cole couldn't understand why.

"Our King." chanted out.

The hair on the back of his neck stuck up like he was out in a raging blizzard. His stomach churred.

This would last for several minutes of fear until a foghorn blared out. 

The arena seemed to get quiet before hundreds of high-pitched battle cries chanted. 

"What are you doing Cole?" Jessica looked over.

Cole slowly glanced outside to see what the commotion was, he smirked at what he saw before he turned toward them both, "Looks like we just got some needed cavalry."

Hundreds of coco champs were now storming in the arena. Some were already on the arena floor, others were using ropes to climb in. 

Some citizens in the spectator seats were escaping the arena, some stood their ground to watch the chaos unfold. 

"Look, let's use one of those ropes to climb out of here, we just gotta be discreet with it." Shawn whispered. 

"Yeah, that's a good idea! Jessica what do you think?" Jessica nodded towards both of them, they looked at each other before looking outside again.

The Boy then noticed The Sand King watched all of this happening in real time while on the arena floor, Cole and his friends slowly walked out of the structure while keeping their guard. 

The Sinful Sorcerer still sat in the spectator seats, the coco champs seemed to move past him like he wasn't there, his arms and legs were crossed. 

Despite the chaos around, he stared at only one person. Cole.

WHY? Why are you staring at me?

The prisoners that were still alive in the arena started to overtake a lot of the guardimons there, with the help of the coco champs who used primal weapons, spears, bows and arrows. 

King Solamon looked in his direction. Cole's smile dropped.

The Sand King slowly closed his fists and grit his teeth, his eyes bled fire and smoke, violence and frustration were the only things present in him at that point. Solamon started to truck towards their direction.

"Guys! We gotta go!" Cole shouted.

The three of them ran past guardimons and prisoners who fought each other, eventually they came across tall sand pillars that were close together. 

Shawn squeezed through the gaps of the pillars, Cole and Jessica followed soon after. As Shawn was trying to catch his breath, Cole looked over at Jessica.
