Nika awoke the next morning with a small smile on her face, she had dreamed that she had kissed Aerrow, but it felt real. 'Maybe it was because I nearly kissed him yesterday.' She thought as she went for a shower and dressed into her normal attire – thankfully her arm was healing well even though Aerrow strangely never asked what happened – maybe he just figured it out. As she was walking to the bridge, the ship began to violently rock, making her slide into Finn who was trying to run out of it, both yelling as they crashed into one another. "You ok?" Nika asked, pulling him up and hanging onto a pole as the ship rocked again. "It's not like you weigh much!" Finn answered sliding outside of the room, screaming again. 'The alarm hasn't gone off, what's going on?' Nika wondered, running to the bridge accompanied by Finn. "Are we under attack?!" Finn yelled, the ship rocked again but Nika held onto the rail near Stork, so she didn't fall. "Is it the Cyclonians?" He asked, worried, Aerrow shook his head. "It's worse! Much worse!" Aerrow replied, Nika frowned – what was worse than Cyclonians? She followed his gaze to see Junko lying stomach first on the ground, screaming and banging away, "Junko has a toothache." Aerrow finished, Nika sighed. "Over-dramatic much?" She asked sarcastically, the redhead frowned at her but kept his mouth shut – he had to stop Junko hitting the Condor before he destroyed it. With that, the alarm finally went off as Stork struggled to counter balance the rocking Condor with each hit Junko made. "This won't end well..." The Merb sighed, the brunette winced at Junko's pain – she never had toothache herself, but she could only imagine how much it hurt her best friend. With caution, she grabbed his arm which he grabbed back tightly. "Junko, look at me!" She shouted, catching his attention. "Calm down, we are going to help you ok?" She said, her eyes widened when he yelled in agony and tightened his grip on her arm – it just had to be the bandaged one she thought when he released her and went into another pain induced rage. With gasps, she clutched her arm dodging Junko's swinging arm – she knew he didn't mean it but man it smarts!

"I can't stand to see Junko like this, so if anybody needs me, I'll be in my room." Finn said sadly before trying to make a leave, Nika winced and stood next to Piper – hiding her now bleeding forearm from her. "This is serious, Finn. We need to get him to Terra Wallop." Aerrow scolded before lowering his voice, "He needs a dentist." Junko let out a gasp of fear, hearing the forbidden word – Nika inwardly screamed when she felt one of the scratches opening up again. "No! No! I hate the dentist! I hate, hate, hate the dentist!! I won't go, you can't make me!" Junko yelled, panicking as he ran away from Aerrow and Finn. Nika watched with Piper, wincing when she heard the trio get into a small scuffled before running back into the bridge with Finn and Aerrow tackling the Wallop and landing on poor Radarr. Piper stood in Junko's vision, armed with a Hypnosis Crystal which Nika turned her head away from – unlike Baron Sebastian's, this crystal wouldn't warp someone's mind after being induced from it for a long period of time but Nika was still wary of them. "Hypnosis Crystal, it's for your own good!" Piper called, attempting to hypnotise the Wallop but he moved so Radarr ended up being hypnotised. "Oops! Sorry Radarr!" Piper apologised, Nika looked at the door hoping she could slip away to tend to her arm but felt a pair of eyes on her – slowly she turned to see Stork with folded arms staring her down. The Merb motioned for her to come over and when she did, he gently took her arm and looked at it. "Oh, you should've came to me." He said in a stern tone, Nika snatched her arm back – not wanting to hear him rant. "I know, I can deal with it." She whispered, trying not to draw attention to herself. "Just don't tell Aerrow or Junko." She pleaded, Stork looked behind the brunette with a short cough, eyes wide Nika slowly turned to see Aerrow, arms folded with a stern look. "Heh heh hi?" She laughed nervously, "C'mon, Stork get us closer to Terra Wallop." He commanded, grabbing Nika's good arm and taking her to the infirmary.
