"I think you two know why you are here."
Silence.
"Well, out of the rest, you were picked for the final owls to become my apprentice."
Kludd looked at the two left, one was a mad barn owl, the last was a peculiar one. He was a black and green barn owl, named Sage.
"Now, to become my apprentice, all you have to do, is catch this blue jay."
He let it go.
The two looked at the jay.
"Well?"
The two flyed towards it.
At the last second, the angry owl fell, causing Sage to catch the jay.
"Well done, my apprentice."
Sage felt like he did something wrong.
1 year later...
The ruler Kludd, looks at the sunset, then a owlette comes up.
"Sir! Sage has escaped!"
"What?"
As Sage flew away, he thought of every thing Kludd did to him.
Sage falls to the ground as Kludd chuckles.
"Pathetic owl!How dare you think of my weak Brother!"
He scrapes Sage with his talons, causing a scar he has today.
Sage flies away, but Kludd tackles him in air, causing him to fall ahead.
Kludd zooms towards Sage.
His talons go deep in his wings and then his stomach.
Kludd laughs as Sage cries.
"Now try to get to your "Guardians" now!"
Sage finally says his first word in weeks.
"Please..."
Sage snaps back to life to pay attention.
He narrowly avoids going into the ocean.
One month later, Sage finds himself in a snowstorm.
Suddenly, Sage finds himself falling down.
He can't fly, his wings are frozen.
He falls, gathering speed.
"God, help me." He says.
He closes his eyes, waiting for impact.
Then, He loses conciencness.
