Prologue
"Master, we've located the renegade angel!"
"Excellent, bring her to me,"
"That maybe prove to be a challenge,"
"Why?"
"Lady Palutena, has gotten wind of the angel. She has sent her captain and his dark self to recruit the angel,"
"Blast that goddess of light! Why didn't you ambush the two already!?"
"We tried, but the whole brigade was destroyed. I was the only survivor,"
"IDIOT! YOU LOST THE ENTIRE POSION BRIGADE?!" The shadow veiled creature brought out his arm and crushed the life out of the cowering commander. He turned back to the throne of chains and whips. There was no possible way his angel would resist the chance of working under the goddess of Light. He needed her back and was willing to do anything to get her.
"GENERAL!" The harden, harpy creature, armed with a whip entered.
"Yes master?"
"Prepare the troops for battle! We storm Sky world as soon as possible!"
As the general left to train the troops, the dark one cackled to cave roof.
"Enjoy your freedom while you can Ellie," he thought to himself. "because soon, you'll loose it all!"
ch 1
"Nice job Pitto! That'll show them not to mess with the angles of Lady Palutena!"
"QUITE CALLING ME THAT! And I don't serve your goddess. I only came to check out this lone angel,"
Pit chuckled to himself. Dark Pit, his supposed exact opposite, was a terrible lier. Though he was too prideful to admit it, the captain of Lady Palutena's guard knew his other half enjoyed working with him. The two had actually become like brothers over the course of the months Hades had been defeat, though both would deny this.
"Boys! Can't I leave you alone for a few hours without you arguing?" A voice asked within both angel's heads asked.
"Sorry Lady Palutena, but opposites will argue!" Pit answered back to the goddess of Light.
"Ya, and he's just being an idiot," Dark Pit added.
"You're getting close to the angel's location, so keep an eye out! Try not to fly over her. Remember, I'm not controlling your flight path!"
Pit was excited by this sentence. Awhile after his experience with the Renewal Spring, Pit had found himself able to fly without help. Though he was overjoyed at finally being able to truly fly, Pit was aggravated by Dark Pit's flying lessons. At least that was over now and he was flying with the gracefulness of a hawk and the silence of an owl.
"Remind me what we're looking for again," The black winged angel replied, breaking Pit's train of thought.
"You're looking for a lone angel, a girl. She's a bit free spirited and she fights with claws. Careful, she could probably kick both your butts,"
"HEY!" They both shouted at the same time. Suddenly, a flash bolted by them, nearly whipping them out of the air. Readjusting, the two saw what had hit them. An angel, around their age, stood on a platform of rock, pure white wings fully stretched. She had golden locks that reached her waist and was braided at the crown, a pair of oceanic blue eyes streaked with emerald, and fair skin. Pit suddenly felt his heart quicken. She was the most beautiful angel he had seen. She smiled and waved at the two.
"Hey! Sorry about that! Didn't mean to startle you!" She musically yelled, laughing as well. The duo looked at each other and landed on the platform.
"That was quite an entrance," Pit replied politely.
"Next time, watch where your going," Dark Pit added rudely.
"Don't mind Pitto. He's just upset that a girl can fly better than he can," Pit apologized. The angel laughed.
"It's alright. I've met a lot of guys like that. You don't seemed to be like that though. So care to introduce yourselves?"
"Oh right! I'm Pit, Captain of the royal guard of Lady Palutena, the goddess of Light!"
"I'm Dark Pit, a free angel,"
"Pit and Dark Pit? Are you two twins or something?"
"Sorta," Pit answered, not wanting to go into details of the creation of his twin.
"Well I'm Ellie, angel of freedom!"
"Angel of freedom?" Pit asked.
"I've sworn an oath to destroy enslavement and free those who cannot free themselves!"
"So you protect other's freedom?" Dark Pit asked, growing interested.
"That's right! My job is to free slaves and destroy slave trades,"
"That's awesome!" Pit cheered. He already liked this angel. The girl blushed.
"I do what I can," Suddenly, she whirled eastward, sensing something.
"What's wrong?" Pit asked her.
"Slave traders. Wanna give me a hand and save some people?"
"I'm in!" Pit called, already in the air.
"Whatever," Dark Pit replied, also gaining altitude.
"Okay! Lets move!" Ellie cheered, leading the way.
It didn't take very long to locate the traders. Landing quietly, the angels snuck their way over to the captives. Most were young children and youthful adults. They began cowering, but Ellie gave them a reassuring smile.
"Don't worry, we'll get you out,"
A pair of Beam Claws suddenly appeared on the angel's hands. In a swift motion, the claws cut through the chains like a knife through butter. The people silently jumped for joy and began thanking the angel. Ellie then turned to a large man that appeared to be their leader. A gold trinket appeared in her hand. She gave it to him.
"Take this, and it will lead you and them home,"
With that, the slaves ran off, never to be seen in the strange land again. The angels retreated to a small cliff close by, laughing their heads off.
"Watch this! The best part is when the traders see my handiwork!"
They remained quiet as they saw the smuggles discover their captives had escape. They soon began tearing at one another, much to the amusement of the angels.
"This is hilarious!" Dark Pit admitted.
"I agree with Pitto!" Pit added, earning a smack from the dark angel. Ellie giggled at this.
"I don't get humans. They're supposed to be the same race, yet they think your superior or inferior depending on where you're born or the color of your skin. It's stupid!"
"And they wonder why they fight so much!" Pit agreed.
"So why exactly did you two seek me out?"
"Well, Lady Palutena sensed you and was wondering if you wished to join forces with us and serve her,"
"Serve the goddess of Light? I'd love too!"
"Really? That's great! Now you just need to be sworn in at Sky world!"
"I can't believe this!"
"Take it easy hopper," Dark Pit mumbled.
"Don't ruin the moment Nix," Ellie growled.
"Nix?"
"Well you don't like Pitto so I came up with a better nickname. Black wings, night, Nix,"
"Nix... I like it,"
"Amazing Ellie, you've already managed to gain favor with Dark Pit. You're stronger than I thought," Palutena suddenly jumped in. Ellie smiled.
"You must be Lady Palutena. It's an honor to serve you malady," Ellie bowed, showing her respect.
"The honor is having you serve Ellie. Boys, show our newest angel back safely to Sky world. Tonight we feast!"
"ALL RIGHT!" The three hungry angels cried, taking to the skies. As the return to their home, Pit couldn't help but notice how beautiful Ellie looked at sundown. Shaking his head, he asked himself.
"What's going on with me?"
