The last time we saw Jutsu, he had gone on a quest to find his lost friend Shibo, along with the rest of the innocent clouds. After departing from the main part of heaven with NO supplies, he ended up caught in a snowstorm, and eventually came across an old abandoned lab in the middle of nowhere! Does this place have anything to do with the whereabouts of Shibo? Or is it simply a place forgotten in time?

Reunion: Pt. 3
It had been 3 days since Jutsu had found the abandoned lab. He was starving, thirsty, and needed fresh air. The good news was that the snow from the last 2 days of snowstorms had melted into drinkable water. The bad news was that there still was no sign of food. Since he found the lab, Jican amused himself by trying to guess what the old facility was for, throwing a rubber ball he found against a wall and catching it again, and figuring out what the machines did. It was a boring three days, but as long as it led to him reuniting with Shibo, he didn't really care.
Since Jican was dying of boredom, he decided to go outside and see what was happening. For once it wasn't snowing or hailing or blowing wind so hard that taking a wrong step would blow you back 20 feet. Instead, it was just cloudy (to be sunny would be a one in a million chance of seeing EVER), and it looked like he could keep flying to find Shibo. As he was about to depart, he thought he heard something. Rain? No, it wasn't raining at all. Hail? It wasn't hailing either. After being in a tense pause, Jican realized what it was.
Footsteps.
He frantically started looking left and right for a place to hide. He found a nearby giant rock, and hid behind it; keeping the sound he made to a minimum. A few seconds later, he knew that he was correct about the sounds. Jutsu heard two voices, and although they were a bit raspy, he could still make out what they were saying. "You got the food, right?", one of them said. "U-uh, yes ma'am, I do.". Jican remembered the first voice from somewhere, but the second person was new. "Good job. We start the expedit-", she paused. "Lieutenant... do you sense that?", she asked the man on her left. Just as he was about to say something, the woman shot a blast of ki at the rock Jican was hiding behind.
"AAAAAH!", Jican yelled out. The two strangers were surprised to see someone as young as Jutsu hanging out in the middle of nowhere. "...The hell?", she said to herself. Suddenly, both Jican and the woman remembered seeing each other in an earlier adventure. The woman remembered Jican by his all-blue everything, and Jican remembered her by her sword. "You!", they both said. "What the hell is a kid like YOU doing in a place like THIS?! You aren't even supposed to BE here! Go back to the mainland NOW!", the swordswoman ordered. Jican refused. "I won't. Not when my friend needs my help.", he said. The swordswoman was pissed. "Are you freaking KIDDING ME?! You shouldn't BE here in the first place! It's not my fault that one of your LOUSY friends was an idiot and tried being a HERO! Leave being a hero to the pros, kid!"'
That pissed Jican off. In a fit of rage, he tackled the swordswoman down the mountainside, sending them both tumbling down. His plan was to send the woman ALL the way back down, thinking that she would be able to fly back up. Jican then started flying, and watched as the swordswoman kept tumbling. Jican had minor injuries, a few cuts and bruises from the rocks, but nothing too major. But in his plan to get his point across, Jutsu overlooked one tiny detail. The swordswoman couldn't fly. And falling from that height any longer would probably result in major injuries or worse.
Jican immediately flew into action; trying to save the woman from a peril he created. He grabbed her by the arm before she was about to fall off of another cliff, and carried her back to the safest ledge. Almost immediately, he started looking for signs of injury. She had cuts and bruises all over her body, and seemed to be unconscious. "O-Oh God... I'll uh...get some help! Stay right here!", Jican said despite the fact that he knew she was knocked out. He flew up to the ledge where the woman's lieutenant had been standing, watching the entire scene in awe.
"So, uh, I'm pretty sure she needs your help sooooo...", he said, clueless on what to do. Since his master couldn't fly, it was obvious this chump couldn't fly either. He grabbed onto the lieutenant and flew him down to where his master had fallen. Except, something felt... off. "Um...where'd she go? I swear, she was right here-". All Jutsu felt right then and there was a sharp pain across his back. "Wh-Wha...?!", Jican managed to spit out. He knew what was going on. He just got tricked badly."AHAHA...You didn't REALLY think I'D be hurt from such a WEAK hit, did you? How pathetic...".
The pain was unbearable. It was almost as bad as when Etoru punched a hole through his stomach, but this level of pain wasn't throughout his ENTIRE body. "Now listen up. Lieutenant, you're gonna go back to the mainland, and take this kid to the hospital. Tell 'em he got attacked by a bunch of wild animals or somethin'. I'll wait here. When you get back, we're gonna continue the expedition, and get whatever treasures are there for the taking! And as for YOU...", she said, looking down at the injured Jutsu. "If I have to deal with ANY more of your crap, then I'll cut your head CLEAN off, understand?!". Jican nodded.
"Good. Lieutenant, it's time to take this kid home.", the swordswoman said. The lieutenant gave her a salute, grabbed Jican, and flew him all the way back to the town he started at. "D...Dang it! All that progress...wasted! I have to go back... I have to...". It was hard for Jutsu to think or breathe at that point. Jican refused to die, yet in the amount of pain he was in, it would have been easy to die twice. When the lieutenant reached the town, he told the doctors the same lie his master had told him to say, and Jican was stuck in a hospital bed. Things were bleak, but he knew that somehow, he'd find a way through all of this...

THAT SAME DAY, LOCATION: UNKNOWN
THAT SAME DAY, LOCATION: UNKNOWN
It was cold. Too cold. He tried to move his body, but his efforts were futile. He tried to open his eyes, but he failed. He tried to wake up... but as far as he was concerned, everything was a big dream. But then he remembered his life was more like a nightmare. There wasn't much he could remember. He remembered a battle at the South Capitol. It was fuzzy, but he remembered fighting someone, but more accurately, something. He struggled to remember what happened next. He recalled a green beast, so ferocious, and so strong, that it seemingly wiped him from existence. But then he remembered...
"JICAN, HELP!"
His screams were drowned in the sound of water. In fact, water was the only thing Shibo could hear. What was going on? Whatever it was, it didn't seem good. Shibo looked down at his hands. In the water, everything seemed almost weightless. And yet, even though he was in water, he still could breathe. He looked up and saw a bunch of air tubes that attached to his mouth. Well that was a relief. The memories were clear now. He remembered getting absorbed by that green monster, and watching Conan get destroyed. Everything was terrible...
On closer examination, Shibo found himself within what seemed to be a cryogenic test tube. Of course, he had no idea what the word "cryogenic" meant, but he just associated it with the thing that freezes people so they can go to the future. He then wondered how far into the future he was. 10 years? 20 years? 1,000,000 years? It was kinda hard to tell. But given from the date on top of the tube, he couldn't have unconscious for over a month. He frowned, but secretly was happy knowing Jican was still out there.
The first thing he needed to do was escape. A green ball of ki started charging in his mouth. "Here it comes! STOMACH ACHE!". As he said that, the green ball exploded into an energy wave, which put a massive hole in the tube. He walked out of it, and saw a massive underground system of tubes just like the one Shibo came out of. "What. The. Heck.", Shibo whispered to himself. He had to get out of there, and fast. He began wandering around, making sure to avoid any guards, broke out through a window.
It was hailing extremely hard, and the only place Shibo could go was inside the creepy lab place. Then again, the hail wouldn't affect Shibo nearly as much as anyone who wasn't a Majin. He began to fly swiftly through the hail, in an attempt to find something, or better yet, someone. "JICAN, DUDE. I HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THE HECK YOU ARE, BUT I SWEAR TO GOD IF I FIND YOU I'M FIRST GONNA BE GLAD YOU'RE OK..."
"THEN IMA POUND YOUR HEAD IN FOR NOT HELPING ME!!!"
