Aiden's P.O.V:

Tiring days of climbing mountains; going through desserts; and through forests.  Hardly any rest.  We make a few beds to settle down in for the night in our dirt hut.  All of us were hungry, but I'm determined to find wherever Jesse lives.  Then we find a huge city with lots of blue, and iron, and other stuff to make it look magnificent!  It looked like it was destroyed in the past.  Maybe that is why everyone is working so hard. 

We head up and we try to find the person who is in charge

We head up and we try to find the person who is in charge.

There are a lot of people here, but they don't seem happy.  They were just working, yes I did work a lot when I was in Sky City, but they look like slaves.  Not happy at all.  I hope they find a cheery state soon.  I walk up to someone who was dusting a llama statue?  I ask the guy, "Do you know who runs this town?"  The guy doesn't even look at me but he mumbles, "Her office is over there."  Maya and Gill start heading over there, but I just took a look around.  Nice place.

We find the founder in her office and she looks at us in a hostile way, then her look softens and she says, "Welcome!  I am Stella and this is Champion City.  What do you need?"  I glance around real quickly then I say, "Do you know where a girl named Jesse is?  I need to see her."  She smiles and says, "Jesse.  Yes, she is not my rival anymore, her town is over there in Beacon Town.  It is still a work in progress I must say, after the admin came."  The what?  How long was I gone for?  I nod and head off with my friends by my side.

Jesse's P.O.V:

I was fixing up one of the broken buildings with a big smile on my face.  "That was the last building!  We finally cleaned up Beacon Town.  See guys I told you it'd be okay."  Olivia, Axel, Petra, Lukas, Jack, and Nurm start to celebrate.  It took us forever to fix Beacon Town up.  Now that it is fixed, we can just get on with our normal lives without working our freaking butts off everyday.

I head back to the treehouse and sigh.  We still have our treehouse, though we don't use it often.  Now it is just a forsaken tree in a forest of trees, but I like to come to it.  Petra and Lukas come up and sit down next to me and they sigh.  Then Axel comes up and falls face-flat on the floor and falls asleep.  Olivia comes up after him and laughs so hard she starts choking!

"I missed this treehouse."  I say.  Axel sits up and says, "It's nice to just sit here once and hang out as a group again."  We all nod in agreement, but then someone knocks on the door.  I open it and there was Radar.  Gosh he is so cute.

"What's up Radar?"  He talks so fast I can barely understand him.  "Radar!  Deep breath, start again.  Talk a little slower."  He nods and then he says, "Aiden and the Blaze rods are back!"  I look back at our friends and they already have their weapons out.  He dare show his face to us again!  We leave our treehouse and head to the entrance of Beacon Town.

There he was.  Just standing there.  Waiting.  I walk closer to him, the others acting intimidating with swords in our hands.  As soon as the Blaze Rods notice us they put their hands up.  Um... am I seeing things?  Aiden comes closer and I shout, "Back up!"  He backs up and then says, "Jesse, we didn't come here to hurt you."

Aiden's P.O.V:

We are heading to Beacon Town right now, but I'm nervous Jesse might think we are intruders, or trying to be a threat.  I want her to understand; I want her to forgive me.  We head up to the gate and wait.  I look around a bit.  This place is nice.  Nice job Jesse!  Then I see her coming.  She still looks the same, except very mad.  She was glaring into my soul and they all have swords.  I gulp down my fear and walk a little closer to her.  Please understand.  

"Back up!"  She shouts, so I back up.  "Jesse, we didn't come here to hurt you."  She didn't buy it.  She still is holding her sword and her unbreakable glare is in my soul.  "Please Jesse, we want your forgiveness.  I never meant to do any of that stuff.  I was just jealous.  You have everything and I have nothing.  I want to say sorry.  I wanna stay here, maybe be your friend.  We all do!  Don't blame Maya and Gill for what they did.  I pushed them around, it was my own fault."  She looked taken aback, so did Gill and Maya.  Then she puts her sword away and says, "How can I trust you after you have betrayed the trust of others?"  I look down, then up, and say, "I want to start anew, do whatever you want.  Throw me in prison if needed; I just want to live here.  With you guys."  She looks at them and then back at me.  I didn't hear anything out of her.

"Can you forgive me?"  I ask.
