Chapter 1:

Pit POV:

It had been quite awhile since I'd saved Palutena and the humans from Medusa, the world at peace for nearly 25 years and counting. But after so long and after training with numerous different weapons, I got an urgent call from Palutena herself.

"Pit, I have detected a powerful force that has entered Skyworld. It appears to be the reincarnation of Medusa herself! I need you to find her and send her packing, got it?" Palutena asked me, the situation being dire indeed.

"Absolutely, Lady Palutena," I said as I took my Palutena Bow and rushed out to the world of Skyworld and Palutena led me to the source, me being a bit surprised when I saw her. Why? She was unconscious, not loking like Medusa at all, much shorter, and she had large wings and a tail on her body.

"Um... Lady Palutena? This girl doesn't look like a threat. In fact, she looks almost like a member of the Drakers," I said to her, knowing she could hear me.

"What? But those creatures are super rare! Only one village of them exists in the mortal realm... but she does have the scent of Medusa on her. I can sense it," Palutena said.

"She's knocked unconscious, Lady Palutena. Almost as if she had been attacked... wait..." I said as I got closer and noticed something odd. She had multiple burn marks on her body as well as scratches all over. She was still breathing, but it was obvious she had been attacked by a dragonic creature.

"Palutena, this girl is in need of serious medical attention! I can't fight her like this... I want to ask if we can help her... can we?" I asked, hoping Palutena would listen.

"Pit... I always knew you were a softy... okay, you can bring her back, but make sure to keep close tabs on her. If she attacks, you know what to do," Palutena said, me smiling as I gently grabbed the woman's body and hefted it over my shoulder, feeling something wrap around my waist when it happened. It was her arms.

"Mm... Budgeeboo..." the girl cooed in her sleep, me smiling awkwardly at that. Was she really gentle? I guess we'd have to find out.


Coca POV:

I didn't know how long I was out for, and I didn't know why my Draker brothers and sisters suddenly attacked me and sent me to the heavens... Why did they hurt me after all the kindness I showed them? And why did they kill my parents?

I soon felt my conscience emerge and I wearily opened my eyes to see a duo of people next to me and me already knowing they helped me just because of the woman. She had long, flowing green hair, wore a toga styled gown with a sash on her waist, had a long staff with a blue orb on it, and she had a light behind her face to illuminate the room.

"Palutena... the goddess Palutena... I thank you..." I said wearily, my voice hurting my neck when I spoke.

"Take it easy. You got pretty banged up out there," the angel boy said, me smiling at him too. "What's your name?" he asked me.

"Coca... Where am I?" I asked sincerely, my dragon genes already kicking in as I had started to recover more rapidly.

"You're in my domain, miss Coca... but can you possibly explain why you smell like Medusa?" Palutena asked me, my mind immediately snapping as I suddenly remembered what had happened. And how it happened...

"I remember now... Medusa told my Draker brethren that I was going to kill them one day, so they turned on me and savagely attacked me! I barely got out of it unscathed, only because I knew I was the only Draker of my clan to have wings strong enough to break through the clouds to Skyworld!... I need to stay with you guys so I can slay this monstress myself!" I said with seriousness in my voice, getting off the bed and the duo looking at me with concern.

"Wait," Palutena said, me stopping in place to hear what she had to say. "If you stick with us, you and Pit here can combat Medusa and the Underworld army together," Palutena offered, me smiling at that happily.

"You just made my day, Palutena. Ya got any weapons in stock?" I smiled at her.

"Follow me, I'll show ya," Pit smirked, though I did notice that Palutena looked at me with unease all the same. Did she trust me? I guess I'd find out shortly. "By the way, what's a budgeeboo?" Pit asked, my face immediately flushing red and me pulling his ear, which he didn't like at all.

"It's something extremely personal to me that is still in my hometown. If we get some free time, I would like you or your army to go find it... I love it more than anything else," I said to him with seriousness.

"Ow, OW! Okay, I'll get it for you, just stop pulling on my ear!" Pit complied, me letting go and smiling at him. "What does it look like?" Pit asked. I sighed and blushed again, mostly out of embarrassment that I was telling my secret to him.

"It's my stuffed animal. It's... a purple-clothed fairy with plush wings... if you tell anyone... let's just say I'm making fried angel wings for dinner," I smiled at him.

"Don't worry, your secret's safe with me," Pit smiled.

"As well as me," said a voice in my head, me gasping when I heard it.

"D-Did you eavesdrop on our conversation?! Isn't that naughtiness, which is an opposite trait of a divine goddess?" I asked in confusion.

"Well, I heard my commanding officer of my armies exclaim in pain, so I had to listen in to make sure you weren't attacking him. By the way, ear pulling is fine, but please, don't eat his wings. I don't know what kind of food you eat being a Draker and all, but we have many different foods here in Skyworld for you to try out... that is, if you want to stay with us," Palutena smiled in my head as we finally entered the weapons room, me looking at the different weapons in awe.

"Well... um... yeah, I will stay with you... besides, I can't very well go back home. My own kind thinks I'm a monster... and Pit?" I asked, looking at the angel boy with a smile, him grabbing me a cool-looking weapon that was basically super-sharp claws that looked like the claws were made out of bullets. "My house is the only one in the village fashioned out of a tree. My mother is the only one that hasn't turned on me, so please, ask her kindly to join me in Skyworld and bring me my budgeeboo safe and sound. Not so much as a single dirt stain, got it?" I smiled at him.

"I'll be careful... but wait, what if Medusa starts her attack while I'm doing that?" Pit asked.

"Then I'll go ahead into the battle. I may not look it, but these wings are strong enough to propel me near the edge of space in only 5 seconds if I start from ground level. And since I'm part dragon, I am completely impervious to all magic of any kind. My claws are sharp enough to cut through steel, I can even turn into a dragon form for roughly 5 minutes long at most if I really wanted to, just with a 24 hour cool-down," I said with a cocky smirk.

"Really? That's how it is for the Power of Flight... now you can hear my secret, since you shared one with me... I can't fly for the life of me, so Lady Palutena helps me by giving me temporary flight for up to 5 minutes. But if it goes any longer than that, you may get your fried angle wings after all. As in, they burn to a crisp. And it also has a 24 hour cool-down," Pit said, me looking at him with a smile and putting my hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry, Pit. With our combined might and fortitude, nothing is going to stop us from defeating Medusa. Nothing at all," I smiled at him. "Now go get my mother and my budgeeboo!" I said to him with a raised voice, Pit immediately doing an army salute and me being surprised when I saw a door appear out of nowhere and he flew right through it and into the open skies on the other side, me seeing it was actually just a few dozen meters above my hometown!

"And as for you, Coca, I'm seeing something troubling in the scrying bowl. Underworld Monsters. I need you to go through this door and proceed to take them out one by one. It's definitely Medusa's first attack, so show no mercy to any of them. And if you encounter humans, don't hurt them. It is my duty to protect them from harm," Palutena said, me smiling and nodding my head.

"Let's start the rampage," I smiled as I rushed through the door and, the moment I was on the other side of it, I turned into my dragon form, my weapon of choice still on my fists and actually merging with them! "TIME TO TURN UP THE HEAT!"
