Songs can sometimes illustrate us better. They give us a rhythm to our lives, lyrics of our feelings. And maybe, with the help of a song, it's easier to see that heroes are ordinary, breakable people too.

Hello readers!

Yes, I am once again branching out! This is my first Storm Hawks story ever! Yeay *cheer*!!!!!

So, this means I write Class of the Titans/Twilight/Young Dracula/Storm Hawks stories!!! wow, i feel so... multitalented!!

Anyways...

This story is going to have six chapters, one for each of the members of the Storm Hawks.

Yes, that's right, even Radarr will be having his very own chapter.

God, it's going to be hard finding a song for him. lol

Yeah, so this is the first chapter, for Aerrow.

The song is 'Breaking the Habit' by Linkin Park. yes, i'm a huge Linkin Park fan, *sigh*. Love them almost as much as i love writing. and that's saying something.

Disclaimers: I don't own Storm Hawks, or the song 'Breaking the Habit'.

Chapter One: Breaking the Habit

I pace up and down my room, memories and flashbacks stabbing me like knives.

How could this happen?

How could I let this happen?

Memories consume

Like opening the wound

I'm picking me apart again

You all assume

I'm safe here in my room

(unless I try to start again)

I hear someone knocking at the door. It's locked, and I really couldn't be bothered opening it. Not to Finn, or Piper, or anyone.

"Aerrow?" I hear. "It's Piper. Can I come in?"

No.

"Yes."

I walk across the room, to the door. Pressing the button on the wall, the door slides up.

Piper's still worried about me. "It's not your fault," she tries to assure me. "No one blames you."

Except for myself.

I don't want to be the one

The battles always choose

'Cause inside I realize

That I'm the one confused

She sits down on the edge of my bed, her forehead creased with concern.

"I don't feel like talking, Piper."

She shrugs. "Tough. I feel like talking, and I could always get a Spill-Your-Guts Crystal."

"And is there really such thing as a Spill-Your-Guts crystal?"

She frowns. "And now you're trying to change the subject."

I look away, biting my lip to stop words coming out. "I don't want to talk."

If I looked back at her, it would be too hard to keep the pressure on my lip. And I didn't want Piper, or anyone really, to know what had happened in the battle.

don't know what's worth fighting for

Or why I have to scream

I don't know why I instigate

And say what I don't mean

I don't know how I got this way

I know it's not alright

So I'm

Breaking the habit

Tonight

"So why don't you want to talk? Is it about the fight?"

Uh oh.

I shake my head. "Please, Piper, just leave me alone."

"Are you sure? You seem pretty cut up."

"JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" I yell, regretting the loudness at the last second. Piper wasn't one for crying, but I knew that my outburst was worse than a punch to her head.

She stands up, looking even more determined than before. "You know, Aerrow, you weren't the only one that was fighting! We all saw what happened, so don't give me all this crap! I thought we were better friends than that!"

She stalks off, and if the door could have been slammed, it would have.

Clutching my cure

I tightly lock the door

I try to catch my breath again

I hurt much more

Than anytime before

I had no options left again

I lock the door. It was staying locked this time. I didn't want to hurt anyone else.

Leadership was a lonely job. I experienced more than the rest of the team, no matter what they told me otherwise. Everything was my fault, because I had let everyone else down.

Pushing past the flashbacks, I reach for my energy blades. Wishing I was Junko, so I could crush them in my hands, I throw them at the wall. They were tough, stronger than your average weapon, so walls didn't hurt them much.

Damn.

I spot the window, eyeing it carefully. Picking up the twin blades, aiming for a second, I hurl them at the window. The reinforce glass is no match for them, and the window is shattered.

All that's left it shards of glass.

I wouldn't be using a weapon ever again, 'cause that was my last fight.

I'll paint it on the walls

'Cause I'm the one at fault

I'll never fight again

And this is how it ends

I don't know what's worth fighting for

Or why I have to scream

But now I have some clarity

To show you what I mean

I don't know how I got this

I'll never be alright

So I'm

Breaking the habit

Breaking the habit

Tonight
