Authors Note: Well the Reviews are it and I have chosen my characters. I must say that all the characters submitted were very well done and I had a very hard time of choosing which ones to use. Also I origonnaly said that I would only take 7 characters, but I have gone with 8. Actually, I origonnaly was planning on eight, but went against the idea. Anyway here are the characters I have chosen.
Goji Kaiju
Orihime Starfire
Cloud Light-feather
Ryuji Makeno/Copper
Izumi Twilight
Tyra Winds
Lavender Windham
Zack "Zero" Cooper. (recieved by Email)
I f your character wasn't chosen, Im sorry. I only took eight people because the story would become to confusing if I had too many characters. Everyone's characters where very well done.
Thanks everyone for the characters and if yours wasn't chosen, please continue to read and review to the story...
CHAPTER ONE --- NIGHT FALLS
Along the sands of the great desert, a lone Zoid flew, its long, sleek body reflecting the bright glare of the sun off its black and silver armor. It had large bladed wings, and was flying at remarkable speeds. Blades also graced it's body along its back and tail. It had four long legs, all of which it tucked safely under its body.
The cockpit was located inside the sleek head, which had a long retractable blade on top, and glowing yellow eyes. Inside sat a lone 14 year old girl, with long silver hair. She was thin and slightly delicate looking. Her eyes were closed as if she was asleep.
The Zoid gave a small growl, awakening the sleeping girl. She placed her hands onto the controls and brought up a screen to show her where they were. The screen showed a large waterfall oasis, surrounded by bright orange and white desert sands.
"Ryuu," She said to her Zoid, "go ahead and take us in."
The dragon Zoid roared its agreement and flew lower to the ground, its body only a few feet above the scorching sands. It headed strait for the center of the falls, seemingly heading to crash into them. It brought its wings closer to itself, and lost speed, about to fly strait into the rushing water.
Ryuu flew through the falls and into a hidden cave, the base and home of the Sky Raiders team. The Zoid pulled its legs out from under itself, and jogged to a stop against the rocky ground of the cave.
The girl jumped out of the cockpit, carrying a small bag of groceries, "Ok Ryuu, go ahead to the cargo hold."
The dragon turned and headed into another cave off to the left. Just then a small door next to the cave opened and out stepped a young man and a small zoid. His short spiky hair was also silver, and he wore a pair of icy lens glasses covering his sky blue eyes. He had on a silver jacket and a pair of blue pants.
The young man watched the dragon zoid head into the cargo hold, then he met the girl half way across the room excitedly, "So Rain, watcha bring home for dinner?"
Rain laughed, "Just some steaks and stuff. I bought some snacks as well. And I DO NOT want them eaten all in one day, Cloud! I didn't get any last time."
Cloud grinned deviously, "It wasn't me that ate them sis... Um it was LightStrike." He indicated the smaller Zoid at his side who only roared in defense.
Rain starred at her older brother and rolled her eyes, "Organoids don't eat food."
The two continued to bicker as they headed through the door, LightStrike at their heals. The inside was like any base, it had white walls with various doors heading into various rooms. At the end of the hallway was an opening that had a few stairs heading down into the round commons room.
Inside were a few comfy couches and chairs, along with the kitchen. Half of the wall was pure glass, which over looked the cargo hold.
Rain set the groceries down on a small counter. She proceeded to put them away when Cloud called out, "Oh yeah, we were informed by the ZBC of a battle tonight."
Rain looked up, "Tonight? Against who?"
"Some team called the Fireblazers. They all have pretty unique Zoids."
"So, our Zoids and LightStrike aren't exactly normal either."
"Yeah that's true." Cloud walked over to the glass wall, and peered down. Rains Zoid, Ryuu, was one of a kind. It excelled in both ground and air combat, and had a very high speed thanks to two speed boosters located under the wings.
His Zoid was a Blade Ligar that he called Kurare. It wasn't just any old Blade Ligar though. The Zoid had silver armor and gold blades. Kurare was powerful, especially when combined with the strength of LightStrike.
"So," Rain said, walking to join her older brother, "what time is the battle?"
"11."
"That's strange, not many battles take place that late."
Cloud walked over to one of the couches and plopped down, turning on the TV across the room Via remote. "That's what I thought too." Cloud said with a shrug, "But I guess we shouldn't complain, after all, Ryuu will have a huge advantage. He is black after all."
Rain nodded, "Well its five now, and your turn to cook. So im gonna go shower and change. Call me when diners done." She then ran off down the hallway in a strange hurry.
'What was she in such a hurry for?' Cloud thought to himself, 'wait today's Saturday... its her turn to cook!'
He sighed, "Oh well, she aint a very good cook anyway."
LightStrike gave his master a small confused growl as he began cooking. The small organoid then curled up in a corner to rest.
*****************
Meanwhile, in a large underground base...
"Ma'am, we have reports of a battle tonight." A foot soldier reported to his commander.
The commander was a young girl of 16. She had long flowing lavender hair and soft intelligent brown eyes. She was unbelievably graceful, and had a strong otherworldly air about herself that made all the soldiers nervous around her.
"Are there any valuable Zoids participating?" She asked quietly, yet sternly.
"Yes, actually all five Zoids that will be participating are all highly valuable."
"Aright, bring me Copper and Zero."
"Yes miss Starfire."
The girl dismissed the foot soldier and laid back in her chair. She hated doing this, but... it had to be done.
A knock came to her door, "Come in."
A young soldier came in. "Ma'am, Copper and Zero are on their way."
She sighed, "Good, but please just call me Ori or Orihime."
"Yes ma'am."
********************
"So are the Zoids ready?" Cloud asked his younger sister. It was now ten o-clock, and the two of them were making sure everything was ok.
"Yeah, so is LightStrike." Rain answered.
"Good. Lets get going then ok?"
Rain nodded. They got into their Zoids and headed out of the base with LightStrike running besides the Blade Ligar. The battleground was about 45 minuets away.
They traveled the sands in the dark, looking forward to the battle ahead of them. Unfortunately neither new of the chaos that would take place that night.
End Chap one.
Authors note: Don't worry, all the rest of the chapters will be longer and all the characters will most likely be introduced within the next two chaps.
