Dawn. The sky is clear and the sun rose from beyond the far mountains. The wind blew smoothly and calmly. Ryuga walked out of the cave and gazed at the sky with his hair dancing like fading darkness behind him.
He gazed up at his hand in the sun's light. "Looks like some of my power has returned." His eyes became more focused. "But this is not… this is not the first universe." He spoke to himself in surprise.
"Franklin! We need to leave now." He called out to Franklin in a voice filled with mixed emotions of both worry and excitement. A partially distorted smile etched on his face.
Franklin walked out of the cave stretching his arms and yawning. He started walking fast straight ahead without any explanation. "What!? Why are you leaving me suddenly." He complained but Ryuga just kept going. "Will you at least tell me where we are going?"
