Hello everyone!

This is the second oneshot collection I've started in the las few days, but now that my exams are almost over, I'll have a lot more time on my hands to work on my writing!

All the oneshots in this collection will be based on quotes from the song "Better Days" by the Goo Goo Dolls and the final episodes (51 and 52, mostly) of the Storm Hawks. So, be warned: THESE ONESHOTS MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS!

I'd like to dedicate this first oneshot to all the Radarr fans out there! (I, myself, being one of them).

Disclaimer: I do not own the Storm Hawks, nor the song "Better Days" by the Goo Goo Dolls.


What I Want

"And you ask me what I want this year,
And I try to make this kind and clear,
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days."

Radarr sat rigid, balanced skilfully on the railing of the Condor's balcony. A soft breeze swept through the little creatures fur. His tail flicked lazily and his large ears were laid back comfortably against his head, as he gazed up at the sun, ever moving towards the horizon, bringing the impending war closer and closer.

Radarr's ears perked at the sound of soft footsteps approaching, but he didn't bother to turn his head away from the fiery ball that floated above. He knew who it was.

Aerrow looked worriedly at his best friend and co-pilot. The small creature's usually animated face now held no emotion at all. His features were hard and stiff, and in his eyes, Aerrow could see a glint of deep knowing.

"Hey Radarr." Aerrow greeted, joining his friend at the railing and following the blue creature's gaze, "We missed you at lunch."

Radarr made a small, near-silent chirp, still looking up at the sun, with great concentration engraved on his features.

"You must be hungry." Aerrow commented, "Want to come in and get something to eat?"

Radarr made no sound, just shock his little head slowly, ears flopping lifelessly.

"You sure?" Aerrow questioned, "You don't want anything?"

At this, the co-pilot turned to look at his Sky Knight. Radarr's features softened, his eyes having a faraway look. After a few moments, the little blue creature's eyes began to express a great longing.

Jumping down from his place on the rail, Radarr stood in front on Aerrow on the deck. Face still serious, he opened his arms wide, then brought them in to wrap them around himself. Radarr chirped, looking up at Aerrow expectantly.

Aerrow sighed, "I've never been very good at charades, Radarr."

Radarr crossed his arms and gave Aerrow an annoyed glare. Then, his face brightened, an idea forming in his mind. With a wave at Aerrow to tell him to follow, Radarr scampered into the bridge.

Aerrow did a quick sweep of the bridge as he entered, and found Radarr hunched over the table. Walking towards his friend, Aerrow saw that Radarr was drawing something with crayons on a piece of paper.

With a happy chirp to announce he was complete, Radarr held up his scribbly masterpiece up for Aerrow to see.

Aerrow leaned down to get a better look. Through his co-pilot's drawing was childlike, the Sky Knight could make out a bunch of different little people. He saw himself, and Radarr and the other Storm Hawks, along with the other Sky Knight squadrons, and even a group of Talons. They were all laughing and shaking hands, the bright colour of the crayons giving the whole picture a joyful feel. The sun of a new day rose behind the little rainbow coloured Atmosians.

Aerrow smiled sadly up at Radarr, lifting a hand to pet the little creature's head.

"Yeah, Radarr," Aerrow said, "That's what I want too."


It was kinda short and sweet, but I hope you all liked it!

I always thought that Radarr was a deep thinking kind of creature. But, that's just my opinion!

The next oneshot is typed and in the editing stages, so it should be up in the next day of so.

Please review! I love reviews! And check out my other oneshot collection: The Sky Prince Chronicles.

Oh, and finally, I've been trying my hand at Storm Hawks musci videos as well. Go to Youtube and search "Storm Hawks Book of Days" and you'll find my video on top! I'm very proud of it, it being the first one I made and all!
