Okay, my second Storm Hawks fanfic. I'm really expanding my horizens. P

I don't own Storm Hawks (it'd be so cool if I did though. Wouldn't it be cool?! ))

Enjoy and lots of reviews!

Aboard the Condor, Piper stormed through the ship, furious as she held a fading yellow crystal. Entering the dock, she saw the person she was after. "Finn! Why'd you go and drain my Solaris crystal?!...Again?!" she screeched.

"Hey, a guy's got to work on his tan." Shrugged Finn.

"Oh, I am gonna kill you!" screamed Piper as she tossed the crystal out of her hand and began to race after Finn.

"Hmm. Very interesting." A familiar feminine voice commented and everyone stopped what they were doing.

By the door, Starling was looking at them, a questioning look on her face and Piper laughed weakly. "Oh, uh, Starling. It's great to see you again." Piper greeted, her cheeks a bright red.

"Yes. It's amazing to see you again to Storm Hawks. Aerrow. I have a matter that I need to discuss with you...alone." explained Starling as everyone leaned in to hear what she had to say.

"Guys. It's alright." Aerrow reassured him and he and Starling walked away from the group.

Standing in a hallway, Starling began, "I have a mission I need you to do for me. I need you to protect my niece. Master Cyclonis has caught wind of her and has the Dark Ace looking over all of Atmos for her."

"What? Why can't you protect her?" Aerrow questioned.

"I would, but Master Cyclonis is keeping me under watch. I need someone to get her while I draw the Cyclonians away. Then, you'll have to keep her safe."

"Where's your sister?"

"My older sister, she was a Sky Knight too. We split the leadership of the Interceptors between us. I was on a mission and she was in charge when the Raptors came and took us down. She was dead when I got to her and she managed to pass me this note on where she had left her daughter. So, I went and found her. I hid her each time I had to go on a mission. Now, it's too risky for me to watch her or go to her. If you go and get her, you'll be able to protect her better than me."

"What's so special about this kid? Why would Master Cyclonis and the Dark Ace bother going after her?"

"It's all in this letter." Starling answered and passed him a faded yellow envelope.

"Okay. I'll go get her. What about you?" replied Aerrow.

"I'll try to distract the Cyclonians long enough for you to go get her. She's on Terra Mesa." Starling informed and she leapt onto her Slip-Wing Fighter Ultra. "I also have a location that you would check out. Also, her name is Serenity."

"We will Starling. We will." Promised Aerrow and Starling smiled as she drove her ride over the edge.

A pair of wings opened and she soared away, leaving Aerrow staring at the envelope in his hand. Opening the envelope, Aerrow leaned against his ride as he looked at the letter inside. In elegant script read:

Aerrow. This is everything that my sister told me about her daughter in her exact words. Starling Take care of my daughter. Train her so she can be a Sky Knight. Serenity has powers, like I had. I don't know her complete powers, but I know she does have telekinesis. Keep my daughter safe from her father. Dark Ace doesn't know that she's his daughter. Keep it that way. If he finds out, he will stop at nothing to get her. She is very powerful. Keep her safe. It was great being your sister and you are one of the most amazing Sky Knights I've ever encountered. Keep flying. Keep this a secret. Love from Mandragona.

Another piece of paper fell out of his heads and it was a clear map with one location marked in bright red ink. Stuffing the letter into his ride, he rushed back to the dock. "So, what'd Starling want? Does she have a mission for us?! What did she want?!" Piper eagerly interrogated.

"We have to get to Terra Mesa as fast as possible." Aerrow told them.

"Oh, this is only going to end in doom and suffering. Let our end be quick and painless." Stork sighed as he steered the Condor in the direction of the Terra of the lost Interceptors squadron.

"So, uh, what are we going there for?" Junko interrogated.

"Guys. Just trust me on this. I know what I'm doing." Aerrow silenced as he stared ahead of them, a determined look on his face. He passed the map to Piper. "Piper. See if you can figure out where that is. That's where we have to go."

"Aerrow? What'd Starling tell you?" Piper asked.

"It's nothing. Can you figure out where that is?" Aerrow repeated.

"Uh, yeah. I could...I guess." Piper mumbled.

"I knew you could Piper! You are awesome!" Aerrow complimented and Piper pouted as she began to look at the map.

"Oh, we are going to meet our finish, and let it be quick ad painless, cause for us, it's doom, doom, doom, doom, doom!" Stork remarked as he sharply turned the Condor.

Finn questioned, "Dude. Could you be a little less oh-we're-gonna-meet-our-doom and more of your sense of adventure."

"Oh, after being with you...you eventually lose it." Stork sneered.

Moments later, Piper reported, "Um, I figured out where that is. It's on the east side."

"Good job Piper!" Aerrow added.

"Uh, Dude. Are you okay? You seem...different." pointed out Finn.

Aerrow scoffed, "Why wouldn't I be?"

"I'm just saying...you seem different from before you saw Starling. Did she zap you with something?" Finn repeated.

Remembering what he read in the letter, he answered, "Uh, no. She kinda told me we had to go to Terra Mesa and she gave me this map."

"Why didn't she go?" wondered Junko.

"Starling couldn't go because...because...something came up..." Aerrow replied.

Seeing that they wouldn't be able to get anymore information out of their Sky Knight and leader, the Storm Hawks were silent on the rest of the way to Terra Mesa.

Okay, this isn't one of my best chapters, but hey. It still works! P

Review please!
