Syrus and Mr. I start to walk the

rest of the way down the bridge over Orb

Lake. Syrus looks to his left, at the volcano. He

sees a cliff up there with a circular building.

“Mr. I, what’s that?” Syrus asks.

“Did you see the teleport chamber on

your way into the island? Well, it teleports you

up to that cliff there. Then you jump off into the

water.”

“That reminds me, is this water safe for

swimming?”

“You bet it is!” Mr. I says.

“Great! Let’s go swimming!”

“Umm, sorry Syrus, but I kinda have a

thing against water.”

“Oh, that’s right, you’re a fire type, aren’t

you?”

“Hehe, yeah.”

“No problem.” Syrus says. “What is a

problem is that I don’t have a swim suit.”

“So what are you going to do about that?”

Mr. I asks.

“I’ll just swim in my clothes.” Syrus releases

all his water monsters as he jumps off the bridge into

the lake. Syrus swims around for a while and then

attempts to open his eyes under the water. Unlike

most water, this water is so clear that seeing underwater

is just as clear as seeing above water!

Syrus swims around under the water and

spots a Blue and Shining Object. Syrus swims over to

it. It is wedged between two rocks. Syrus tries to get

it loose for a while and then swims up to the

surface.

“Octo! Give me a hand down here!”

Octo jumps into the water and swims to

Syrus. Syrus dives down to the blue stone again,

Octo following him.

“Oh, is that what you need help for?” Octo

says. Syrus can’t talk underwater, so he just nods.

Octo uses his strong tentacles to pull the two rocks

apart. Syrus grabs the blue stone and swims up to

the surface.

“Hey Mr. I! Look what I found!” Syrus yells.

“Let me see that!” Syrus throws the stone

up to Mr. I. It hits Mr. I and falls onto the bridge.

A large white beam flies out of the strange

rock and a monster appears. Syrus quickly

climbs out of the water by hanging onto Blue

Orb as it flew up.

“What is that thing?!”

The strange new monster standing

in front of Syrus is like nothing he’s ever

seen before. It looks like a combination of

several monsters. Its head is similar to a

Monk’s head, but upside-down. Out of the

head are large red wings, like Mr. I’s.

Below the head is what looks like an

upside-down Prisem. Connected by a lightning

beam from Prisem is Crystal. Orbiting the

lightning are four eyeballs with spikes in them.

“Lord Wizeman!” Mr. I says, bowing.

“Wizeman, huh? Then what was he

doing CAPTURED at the bottom of the lake?”

Wizeman tries to speak, “Yes, I am

not Lord Wizeman. I am just an ordinary

Wizeman. You can make Wizeman monsters

by just owning each of the monsters that

makes me.”

“Okay, Wizeman. How’d you like

to come with us?”

“Beats being captured.”

“Okay. I’m going to transfer you over

to a red Ideya marble.”

Syrus captures Wizeman in the red

Ideya Capture.

“So, Mr. I. What exactly was that

blue stone anyway?”

Mr. I answers, “Well, if you actually

take time to look at it, it’s an Ideya Marble,

except it’s blue colored. The blue Ideya isn’t

an Ideya Capture, it’s called a Greater Ideya.

Unlike the Capture, the Greater Ideya has a

lesser chance of failing to capture a monster.

A very useful item, but it’s kinda rare.”

“Cool! What untill Synan sees this!”

“You’re really into beating Synan at

everything, aren’t you?”

“You know it!”

Syrus and Mr. I finish walking down

the bridge. When they get close to the end,

a voice yells to them. “Halt!”

Syrus looks and sees the guard he

met when he first arrived on the island.

The guard speaks,

“Where do you think you’re

going, Syrus? You’re not allowed to see

Lord Wizeman! Now turn around and go

back where you came from!”

Syrus gets an idea, and releases

Wizeman from the Ideya Capture.

“Lord Wizeman! Please forgive

me!”

“But I am not Lord--” Wizeman

tries to say, but Syrus elbows him to make

him stop.

The guard glows all white and then

seperates into five circles, all the same size

except one is a bit larger. The glow goes

away and Syrus sees a strange monster. It

is just one large eyeball surrounded by four

smaller eyeballs, each with four spikes in

them.

“Spyke,” Wizeman says, “You’re

supposed to be guarding the island, not

guarding my castle,” Wizeman says, starting

to play along.

“Yes, Wizeman!” Spyke floats away

down the path.

“Now, where were we?” Wizeman

asks.
