* Kevin's POV *

            I woke up to a little breeze blowing against my face. Opening my eyes I thought why I wasn't in my tent, but then I remembered what happened yesterday and a smile rose to my face. I sat up rubbing my eyes. Looking around I saw everyone was still asleep, everyone except Bob. It was a little chilly in the morning and I didn't wanna get out of my warm sleeping bag, but I was curious to see what Bob was doing. I see his head poking out of his jeep window. I walked close to the jeep looking through the window and saw him hunched over a book with random papers and notes scattered everywhere. 

"Bob what are you doing so early in the morning? " I asked opening the door.

"Researching. " He said continuing to jot something down in his messy handwriting. 

"What are you researching? " I asked. I held one of the papers he wasn't reading and saw a bunch of random notes on crystals.

"The crystals. I figured if the windstone crystal and the energy crystal have some sort of powers, than the other crystals must have as well. " He said.

"Powers!? As in like super powers?" I asked getting all excited. Just before Bob could answer, Alberto came up to us.

"What are you guys doing here? " Alberto asked opening the door. Looking at him I saw he had a light lime green crystal in his hands.

"Bob said the crystals can give us super powers! What's that crystal? " I asked.

"It's a windstone crystal! I was going to practice with it before breakfast you should come too I wanna show you how cool it is!. " He said making me smile.

"Oh my god I wanna. Am I gonna fly? What can it do?! " I asked with excitement in my eyes.

"That crystal  can produce staggering gusts of wind, powerful enough and controlled enough that they can be used to hurl large objects long distances. If you put your mind to it, you can fly in the wind however you like." Bob said looking at us after reading from his messy notes.

"Not every single crystal is here, but I'm sure we have a few of them, which is really cool. 

I-I grabbed this off of the Storm Runner before he got away. I was going to try and look it up in the books see if Damian has found something." Bob said as he pulled out a small black crystal from his pocket. "But I got nothing. " Bob told us as he slumped back on the seat. 

"Don't worry, I'm sure we'll come across the answers soon. In the mean time, Kevin come on I'll show you how the crystal works!" Alberto said running off. I looked back at Bob who gave me a smile.

"You'll love it." Bob said. 

"I know but you better eat a healthy breakfast, and don't over do anything, and eat your vegetables! " I scolded Bob holding up my index finger. Bob just laughed and nodded. I turned to follow Alberto with the windstone. 

* Logan's POV *

           I watched from afar as Bob studied the crystals. I knew he didn't want to go back to Sector Zi-83, but I did. I wanted things to go back to the way they were; but I also didn't want that. I wanted things to improve but I didn't want things to change. I can want anything, but I can't have everything. I walked towards the black gem or crystal that Bob was keeping from me.  I held my hand out looking at Bob. He guilty handed it over. I took a looked at it deep in thought before Bob snapped his fingers in front of my face. I grabbed his hand giving him the look.

"Don't do that. " I said as he gave me a fake frown. 

"So this is what you've been hiding from me." I said holding up the black crystal to look at it.  I couldn't find the right words to describe what it looked like. So dark and mysterious.
