Return to the SSV
Prolouge: Hidden Shards
A zafara sat alone in the cold of the night. The grass wasn't moving, showing no wind, and there wasn't anything around her. Just pure silence, which; she had heard, was golden. Something about this silence told her that it wasn't golden at all, so she sat alert. She shivered. She was cold. Suddenly, she heard a swooshing sound, like a vacuum opening. Looking up, her face meek and filled with fear, she watched as a door opened, glowing lighs coming from it. A shadowy figure stood in the doorway. With a whimper, she turned and ran, hiding behind the tallest tree around. The tree shimmered, and it died away. Whimpering again, she ran and ran as far as she could until she could see no grass in front of her, just pure darkness. She put her paws up onto the glass with a whine. He was coming, she could feel it.
Another swooshing noise was heard. She turned her head.
"Hello, ZA-MAGIC4989…" she backed into the wall. "It's training time. YOU need to go and find someone for me." She shook her head over and over.
"Well, you don't have any choice. So you're going to."
She shook her head again. He held up a grey ball and pressed a green button, pointing it at her. Yelping, she tried to run, but she couldn't move, and the green light held her, shocking her, sending threds of information through to her brain…
"You aren't going back."
"Oh, yes I am."
"Oh, no you aren't."
"yes I AM!"
"It's too dangerous. You aren't going back, we can't risk you meeting up with that Xelqued again… he's nothing but trouble, and so are you."
"Oh, thank you, I'm touched…"
She yelped again as a searing pain shot through her.
"You aren't to eat a thing. Don't touch anything while you're down there, do you understand me?"
"I understand…"
"And don't go near that Xelqued."
"Yes… sir…"
The zafara hit the ground, collapsing instantly. The pain was too much for her to take. The Aisha stood over her.
"Don't worry… we'll take care of the little business at hand with Zafra and Xelqued, and that no good gelert… and then everything will be alright, no more training to go through, no more problems… just another day, and everything will be okay…" he mumbled, patting her on the head. Then he turned and walked out. Once the door closed, he yelled.
"Vertunax!"
A light blue alien Aisha came and sat tall.
"Sir?"
"Watch her. I have plans for this little one, they cannot be thwarted."
"Yes, sir."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
A purple zafara awoke unto darkness. A sudden surge had jolted her into the real world, shivering. What exactly it was, she didn't know. It was as if someone- or something- was marking its coming. Blinking a few times, she tried to go back to sleep. Unfortunately, after about 20 minutes and no avail, she snarled and sat up, staring at her surroundings. After a quick search of the area with her eyes, she came to a conclusion, bland as it may be.
Things have changed. Her tail twitched as she observed the sky. Yes, things have defiantly changed. Indeed, things had changed so much since OobabixgurloO's last encounter with the sky. True, it had been what seemed like years ago that she had been saved from her death on the SSV, but more than just that had changed. One of the most important things was her name; originally known as Zee, she now is known as Tamue. She blinked as she gave a peaceful smile and stared over at her friends.
DarkDigitalDream was, as usual, sleeping peacefully, and Tamue couldn't help wonder whose dream she was helping with next. Dream hadn't changed too much from when she was younger, she was still a bit of a hot- head and a tomboy, and yet she was stronger, and the green aurora seemed to shine brighter around her now. At night, she changed, in the dream world; she was white, with dragon-like wings. In a way, she hadn't really changed at all, until the night came.
Tamue's eyes wandered towards Xelqued, and her smile grew wider. Xel had defiantly changed, although his persistence hadn't. Xel had been faced with dismemberment after letting her loose throughout the SSV, but had continued to act like the Alien Aisha he was. At times, he seemed very stuck up and just plain stubborn, especially around his myriad. Yes, even Xel's dreams had come true, he had visited the hidden tower and now his Aisha Myriad was in the Neopedia. Xel, too, seemed to have an aurora around him. Tamue toyed a bit with her rainbow-swirl-thingy around her neck as she continued to stare. One of Xel's arms was draped around the Myraid, and he was snoring lightly. Tamue grinned. Yes, Xel was very stubborn. But as far as she was concerned, he was stubborn- in a cute way.
Tamue then thought of herself; she had perhaps changed the most of the trio. Her name, for one thing, and her attitude. Before, she had been slightly timid, but with a sharp naughty nerve that had grown as she had. Her ears, sadly, were still long, and she couldn't help being clumsy enough to trip on them. She had around her neck a rainbow-swirly-thing, a present from Xel (but not her original one, as Sloth had stolen it) that helped her in her worst times of need. She was usually seen in the company of Spyrushi, whom she considered to be her sister, though they weren't actually related at all. Tamue had gone hard over the years, but with the help of her friends, she had softened up just a bit- enough to let things be known about her, but not enough to tell anyone who didn't already know of her past story.
With a yawn, Tamue surveyed the field, staring as if to dare any dark creature of the night to come and mess with her- or her friends- and get fried. Her chest puffed out with a superior kind of note, and as no one came through the woods to attack suddenly, she turned around three times and lay down, tail twitching. Something had stirred her, though she couldn't exactly point out what. It was as if danger was indeed coming, but she couldn't see a thing. And to make things more confusing: this wasn't the first time it had happened. She had had this wake her up 5 days in a row. Tired by her hard thoughts, it didn't take long for the purple zafara to fall into a dreamless sleep.
