It wasn't long before the others were up by the Blimp Majesty, when they were all on deck J filled them in on the planet's history and who exactly the South-Wind pirates were.  


Nico was doing well in hiding his excitement so far, but Risky was bursting with curiosity.  She ran to J and observed him while circling around him.  Nico had to drag her away and stand her in place by Skittles to make her stay still.  


After J had finished telling the others about the South-Wind Pirates Vector said, "I gotta gut feeling that these pirates have something to do with Eggman and your enemy," He said pointing to Hannah, "It's suspicious to find Eggman out here in the middle of no where."


"Well, I gotta question fer ya. Does yer Eggman character post up weird refineries and such?" J asked.


"Yes, he does that all the time." Tails told him.  


"Well, you'll find it more suspicious that the stupid man has built one in the middle of the desert.  East bound." J said pointing out into the sky.  


"That's the way Eggman retreated, maybe he went back to make repairs." Rocket suggested.  


"Well, let me help ya with fixin' up your ship. Then we can sock it to 'em." J said.


"We really appreciate your help, J." Hannah said with a kind smile, and J bowed down low and replied, "It's my pleasure."   


After that he walked up to the steering wheel and turned the ship to the North.  He cranked a long lever that came out of the floor and the ship made moaning noises as it's nose tipped slightly up ward.  Then walked over to the center of the ship and started cranking a wheel, grunting with effort.  Sacks of sand were raised up from the side and distributed onto the deck.  After he delivered them to the center and the Blimp Majesty started forward.  


After about twenty minutes of sailing Amy noticed something in the distance.  At first she couldn't believe her eyes, and she ran to Knuckles and tugged on his arm, "Knuckles that looks like Angle Island!"


Knuckles' head shot up and his gaze followed her finger.  


"Those are called the Yist Islands. We don't have any islands named after saintly beings." J called from the steering wheel.

"Oh," Amy said, "Sorry..."


"We'll be docking pretty soon, might as well just dump that broken ship of yer's." J said jutting his head towards the ship that still remained on the deck.  


"Is that safe?" Tails asked worriedly.


"Course! Not like anybody's down there we could aim at." J said shrugging.  


It only took Mighty and Knuckles to push the broken ship off the edge and they watched it fall through the clouds.  


Tails let out a sigh and said, "Now I have to build another ship..."


"Well, there wasn't anything you could do about that one, it was totally busted." Rocket said, trying to be helpful.  


After another five minutes they were docking their ship in the ports of the Yist Islands.  J tossed everyone a cloak and said, "Ya might look suspicious.  Put on these."


They passed through the force field and a burst of refreshingly cold air swept over them.  They filed onto a plank with ropes on the sides and crossed over a gaping whole between the island and the Blimp Majesty.  


Trix was happy to have the cloak draped around her face, they almost blended into the rest of the people as they walked through the ports.  She walked with Tails on one side of her and Charmy on the right.  J lead the way, and soon they lead them out of the ports and onto a long bridge connecting to another island.  


This is when they all got a good look at the Yist Islands.  There was one massive island  with a huge building, obviously the capitol.  But what amazed Trix the most was how the city was set up.  That island seemed to be the capitol, there was one island where houses and living quarters were, there was one that had various buildings that seemed to be shops and such, one island was clearly uninhabited, and there was one more island that was the smallest and only had one building on it, the rest was densely packed with trees.


Besides the lush green that the plant life exhibited the buildings were all high tech looking.  The buildings were all different colors and the city seemed to be in natural living order.  Besides the fact that it was all on islands that were distributed throughout the sky.


"Just follow me to that island." J said, pointing to the island that looked to have a bunch of shops, "That's where we can get tools for yer fixin' up."


They received strange looks from almost everyone they passed.  Some people even stopped in their tracks to gaze at Tails' double tails.  But J continued forward to the island.  


Shadow was relieved when they finally reached the island and walked to their destination.  J lead them to a store that had a sign that bared a wrench on it.  He opened the door and a bell broke into the silence of the store inside.  


Tables were spread throughout a small room and random pieces of metal were spread across them.  Tails' heart jumped happily as he saw parts of ships, and components to computers that would enhance their tech and give them the kind of help they needed.


"Oi, Erne? I have a favor I need to ask ya!" J called out into the store.  

Tails eyes were torn from the tables and he looked at the keeper of the shop who emerged from a set of swinging doors.  He was a bird like everyone else, but unlike the rest he was half robotic. One of his eyes was replaced with a mechanical lens, both of his legs were wheels, one third of his tail feathers were (what looked like) blades from a helicopter, and his fingers from his right hand were metal.  The feathers they could see were a lightish brown and a tad of white of gray here and there, his belly pure white.

Besides his robotic appearance he had a jovial smile and seemed like a happy bird.  

"Oi J! Long time no see, where've ya been hiden' yerself?" Erne said as he walked up to J and picked him up in a hug, "You look good! Glad the Blimp is taken' care of ya!"

After J had his feathers ruffled and his beak turned a shade redder he introduced him to the H.I.T. FORCE and told him their predicament.

"Doncha worry, I'll have ya with the parts ya need and back in the sky in no time at all!" Erne said, and with that he rolled off into the store.  

Tails followed him into the back and his eyes became wide as dinner plates when he saw what was behind the swinging doors.  It wasn't necessarily a big room but it fit much more then he could've imagined.  Mother boards he recognized were crammed in (surprisingly neatly) with each other and on the other side of the room he saw toggles and various buttons.  

Erne looked up from his work, when he saw Tails' wide eyes he chuckled and said, "Quite the sight, ain't it?"

"I'll say!" Tails said excitedly, "I've never seen so many gadgets!"

"We've got more gizmos and gadgets then any bird could as for here." Erne said proudly.  "Now, wouldya mind tellin' me what's wrong with yer ship?"

Tails went on explaining while the others sat in the main area of the store waiting.  Charmy and Trix were examining a strange looking robot while Skittles sat by J on the cashiers desk.  

"So," Skit said, trying to make some conversation, "What does the J stand for?"

J gave her a funny look and Rocket who was nearby burst out with laughter.
