Tarrax completed purifying the ballroom until it was finished. he then headed up and did the same thing to the storeroom, making sure the entire subground room where clear/ once that was done- a matter of nearly an hour- he returned to the others, who were nearly finished purifying the back rooms.

The pyre had finally died down and the dinosaurs scattered the ashes around the Thundering Falls Lake area.

Mr. Bigmouth noticed the intake hose of the compressor and he carefully propped it up on some rocks.

Ms. Swimmer and Mr. Bigmouth then stepped through the portal and back into the Inglorious Hotel.

----------------

"Everything all sealed up?" Mr. Bigmouth asked.

"Not quite," the Bull trucker said. He was drinking some essential water as well. "The back is heavily contaminated. Only those who have protective gear are allowed there."

Deimos overheard this conversation and donned his protective equipment and headlamp. He then turned on the airflow and armed himself with a caulk gun.

He then headed to the back of the hotel. His headlamp pierced the yellow fumes but visibility was still poor. He managed to see Stripetail in the fog. He went up to him and tapped him on the shoulder.

"Stripetail, I've got the caulk gun ready," he said.

seal the cracks of than Tarrax an Sara can purify the air and we can get to bed this area is the last area in the hotel that is not sealed off. Tarrax has purified the lower areas" Stripetail said as Tiger came up to him " i'm heading to bed, along with Tigress ' Mesa heading back with botchiboo' Stitch said climbing on to Tiger's back Angel climbed on tigress' "Sure, see you four in the morning." stripetail said "Thanks for your help" Tigress nodded ' Bye guys.." she called out to the others as four of them headed off

Serris · **Reply #5523 on:** February 13, 2010, 03:09:09 AM

Deimos did so. He worked as quickly as possible despite the fact that he was extremely tired.

Several minutes later, he had sealed all the cracks, emptying the caulk tube in the process.

"Stripetail, I;m going to bed now. Everything is all sealed.

Deimos then headed back to the main lobby.

-------------------

Ms. Swimmer, Mr. Bigmouth, Rime and Strut left their modern equipment by the portal and they stepped through to spend the night at the Great Valley.

Dr. Kerzach, Dr. Zanasiu, Zachary, Dirk, Al, Jose, Kurt and Clive headed up to their rooms.

Franz and Werner slept on the couches near Hans.

Strangely enough, Hans's burns were healing fairly rapidly ever since Franz dabbed essential water on them.

Jason continued working, his life support belt obviously animated as was the yellow field outlining his body, but only seen around the edges. It wasn't visible from straight on looking at him, but just around the edges of his body. Maybe it didn't make sense in a flesh world, but that was the rules it worked by in the animated universe he had gotten it in so those rules carried over.

He continued working in the worst most contaminated areas since his life support belt would last quite a long time. Plus if the power got low an easy spell could recharge it's battery power source. He paused in his work to turn to Sara.

"I think filling the air tanks with essential air should last longer?" Jason said before turning back to his work with the next gen tricorder in one hand and a sealant in his other.

"Perhaps, I'll pass the idea along to Tarrax. If feasible it should be used if it'll work." Sara said before sending the message to Tarrax by magical telepathy.

- - - -- --

Meanwhile in Jason's Tardis some of his friends were playing a variety of party type of video games where many folks could play, before they went to bed in their room one by one or in small groups.

Brooklyn feeling tired, and unable to sleep normally could drink a potion that would put him into stone sleep temporarily if he felt tired and needing sleep but Jason nor Sara were handy.

Excellent" stripetail replied ' we can all head back now" Stripetail said
Scooby was relieved to here those words ' Reat, Ri'm rired" ' And i need a shower." Dixie added ; I do too" Cynder replied "we'll each take turns based on who smells the worst " Spyro suggested.
Tarrax heard sara's suggestion ' well, we can give it a shot' he replied mentally"problem is essential air is quire rare, only found in its own dimension or in small areas of worlds with highly advanced magic.. such as Dragomalin. I believe the Head Dragon keeps a supply on him.. If you hasve some on your dear, that would be great..Now I believe I promised you a dance.. shall we head to the ballroom?' He suggested as the six remaining Omniderate headed off, Agumon conversing with Scooby as they headed back. "you were quite brave Scooby going down into the ballroom when it was filled with gas ' agumon said
Ri ras rearing ry rmor.' scooby shrugged " Ri rouldn't rave rone rit rotherrise
" but you and Dixie are the only ones among us save perhaps Angel and stitch, who can handle a caulk gun' Spyro pointed out " when I tried to handle it my claws put dents into it.. '
He does have a point" agumon agreed " You showed leadership there Scooby, keep it up.."
rhanks' Scooby said feeling a it better about himself. He trusted Agumon to make the judgements on leadership, as far as Scooby was concerned Agumon had the most leadership experience among the ten of them...

"It can be made or gated in. Like essential water. " Sara said to Tarrax mentally. "A dance does sound fantastic. Let's go to the ball room." Sara said before she started to head there herself.

"I'm done here. I think the hotel's sealed so I'll go to my tardis and take a bath." Jason said.

"Mee to." Guilmon said, who had been moving some things around so Jason could more easily scan and seal certain areas the put them back.

The two of them returned to Jason's tardis then put their stuff away after cleaning them. Then went to the more public bath. Each personal room in his tardis had their own private bathroom, but there was also a more public type of areas also, in a vaguely roman like fashion.

Deimos was sleeping near his chemical warfare suit in case of an emergency.

Setsuna and some refugees were on patrol for gas leaks.

Nick22 · **Reply #5528 on:** February 14, 2010, 01:08:58 AM

Tarrax headed down to the ballroom, which was now free of gas. " When was the last time you danced, sara? It has been awhile for me' Tarrax said as Sara came up to him..
_ Scooby and Dixie reached their room, and Dixie headed towards the bathroom to take a shower. Cynder would be next, then Spyro. Scooby climbed into bed, and settled in against the sheets.

Kor · **Reply #5529 on:** February 14, 2010, 01:47:30 AM

"It's been a while for me as well." Sara said thinking back, "Any particular dance you'd like. and with or without music?" Sara asked looking at Tarrax while smiling.

Nick22 · **Reply #5530 on:** February 14, 2010, 01:54:04 AM

i don't think there are any..' Tarrax stopped as the ballroom suddenly filled with ghostly music, and a number of ghost couples rose out of the ground and began to waltz.. Tarrax took Sara's claws in his and they slowly begab n to waltz. This was a first time in several centuries that Tarrax had waltzed, but ther are somethings that you never forget, and fior Tarrax, waltzing was one oof those things. he held Sar close to him as they moved, Tarrax keeping his head bent forward as to not hit the ceiling. his eyes never left Sara's and a broad smile was on his face

Kor · **Reply #5531 on:** February 14, 2010, 02:27:32 AM

Sara danced with Tarrax, having learned how to dance the waltz from her travels with Jason. She held onto Tarrax as they danced, looking Tarrax in the eyes as they danced. "You dance wonderfully." She said to Tarrax, her voice warm and speaking a bit quieter then usual.

Nick22 · **Reply #5532 on:** February 14, 2010, 02:31:16 AM

'Thank you' Tarrax replied, nuzzling her as the waltz continued " what do you want to do after this?' He asked, as they twirled around in time to the ghostly music. We could do this for awhile, if you wish. " their breath was visible, as the ghosts lowered the temperature in the ball room, by dozens of degrees,

Serris · **Reply #5533 on:** February 14, 2010, 02:34:40 AM

Franz, Hans and Werner were awake. The essential water let Hans heal at an astounding rate. His face was perfectly fine except for some residual redness.

"Do you hear music?" Hans asked.

Werner's ears swiveled towards the underground ballroom.

"Yeah, I do. Let's check it out," Franz said.

Werner grabbed his shotgun and loaded it while Franz flicked out his extendable baton and Hans grabbed his fire ax.

They then headed to the ballroom.

Kor · **Reply #5534 on:** February 14, 2010, 02:35:55 AM

Sara nuzzled him back. "Dancing for a while would be nice indeed. Then afterwards there are many options we can do." She said smiling to Tarrax as she rubbed tails with him and caressed him with one hand.

Nick22 · **Reply #5535 on:** February 14, 2010, 04:58:59 PM

Tarrax kissed her lightly on the cheek, and held her close to him, his arm pressed firmly around her waist "Are you.. enjoying this.. Sara?' he whispered..
_
Tigress heard the music and decided to investigate ' that sounds like dancing..' she said "Tiger, would you like to come check it out with me..
_ Since when do you like to dance?' Tiger replied gruffily from the bed." Check it out, and see what it is.. i'm quite tired Tigress, and I'm not much of a dancer
_ Yeah , you're not much of a singer either Genki grinned " Go have fun Tigress.. Tigress nodded and headed out of the room. She headed over to Agumina's room and Knocked on the door " tai opened it. "Hey Tigress. we're trying to sleep..' Tai yawned."Is agumina still up?' Tigress asked " No, shes asleep, as is Agumon. If you want get someone to go with you, go as Dixie or Cynder.. Thanks..

Nick22 · **Reply #5536 on:** February 14, 2010, 05:34:20 PM

Dixie by this time had finished her shower and had let Cynder in to clean herself off It was then that they both heard the haunting music coming from the basement.. "That's really creepy" Cynder said as she got in the bathtub "Go check it out Dixie.. I would go with you, but I really need to take a shower. " Dixie leaned over and kissed her on the lips. " Alright.. Go clean yourself off.. I'll go check it out. Just don't use up all the hot water. Spyro needs one too. Cynder smiled as she pulled the curtain shut . the sound of running water could soon be heard.
_
Tigress knocked on the door. Dixie answered it, in her towel "Er.. Hi Tigress .. Sorry.. I just got out of the shower.. Whats going on?
_ Have you heard that creepy noise? " Tigress asked Yes, and If you give me a minute I'll go check it out with you..
_ Thanks Tigress said relieved " Tiger doesn't want to go, and Agumon and Agumina are asleep.."
_
Well you got here just in time" Dixie said "I was just about to hop into bed. Wait there a minute please.." Tigress nodded and Dixie closed the door
_ scooby, I'm going downstairs with tigress to check out where that music is coming from..
Ralright.. rust ron't re rup roo rate.. Ri'm readed ro red, ro rust rock ron rhe roor rhen rou ret rack.. Scooby replied from the bed. Dixie went over to him and kissed him on the lips. Scooby smiled as they parted. "Good night, Scooby. I shouldn't be long.." Dixie said heading over to a chair and picking out a yellow dress for her to wear. She quickly put it on and then hung the towel on the hook in front of the bathroom. ' Spyro I'm headed down to check something out with Tigress. Cynders in the shower.. You're up next. We shouldn't be long, so if you hear a knock on the door, please answer it.."
_ Sure" Spyro replied as he stretched out on the bed. " good luck..

Hans, Werner and Franz entered the ballroom with their weapons at the ready.

"It appears that this area is unheated," Hans said,

--------------

Strut, Rime, Ms. Swimmer, Mr. Bigmouth were still sleeping in the Great Valley.

It was night time and some armed dinosaurs patrolled the valley.

--------------

Dr. Kerzach waited for Zachary to finish showering. He heard music outside but he decided to ignore it.

Dr. Zanasiu was already asleep on the bed.

-------------

Setsuna was waiting for the three refugees she shared her room with to finish bathing.

She heard faint music coming from the lobby.

Nick22 · **Reply #5538 on:** February 14, 2010, 06:50:41 PM

Dixie went out, and went downstairs, Tigress by her side. the music grew slightly louder as they headed down the second floor " It .. sounds like a waltz.." Dixie said " Really? i can't really tell one type of music from another " Tigress admitted " Well, i performed on the showboat we would usually perform a waltz in the middle of the show the Tennessee Waltz.. " Dixie said as they reached the first floor "I could show you some time.
'Really?' Tigress grinned " I mean.. sure..I could teach Tiger how to do it then..
_ " you could give it a shot. He doesn't seem like a dancing type.. " Tigress grimaced " tell me about it.. hes been more grumpy than usual lately..
_ well sneaking around with Agumina will raise his suspicions.. ' Hey! " tigress protested "We haven't done any of that for awhile.. I'm not sure.. how I feel about her.. i mean I'm glad you and Cynder know what we're going through.. but I'm not sure it will work out..between us.."
_ I'm sorry to hear that.. " Dixie replied " why do you think that? " Because shes not the same Digimon I met when we first came here.. i think that first kiss did something to her..Tigress said "since then, well Shes told me shes in love with me.. and I just don't feel the same way.. besides Tiger would never accept us..not willingly at least..
I need to.. how should i put this?
_ Find out...Whether you feel that way naturally, or rather its just a crush sort of thing.." Dixie suggested.
_
that works yeah..so er.. Dixie um.. could you show me how this works?
_ What are you asking Tigress?" Dixie paused "are you asking me to .. make love to you?
- Tigress bit her lip, then nodded as tears began to fall down her cheeks.. I'm sorry" she wiped the tears away "I just need to know what i feels like.. so i can have a better idea of where I stand..with Agumina..
_ Tigress! alright, but only if this is a one-time deal. My relationships are stable, trying to add anyone else into that mix would destroy that stability. And I hate to think what Tiger would do to you if he found out.

below them, the waltz continued as more spirit couples appeared. there were now 12 couples, thirteen including Tarrax and Sara.. they were currently performing a short minuet, and the temperature continued to drop as more ghosts appeared.
_ Nice footwork' said a female ghost to Tarrax as he swung Sara around. ' been doing this often ' Er.. not recently, madam.. hoe often do you do this? "Every few weeks.. we usually don't get visitors..' said her male partner. 'Enjoy yourself good sir.. happy dancing!
- a couple noticed hans Werner and FRanz " Come to kjoin us? The asked in ghostly voices..
