A story for people who love Lugia.

A young lugia flew across the morning sky; he gracefully spun right and left to avoid trees until he finally propelled himself high into the sky, giving him an overview of the realm that was his home. The lugia's name was Ren; he flew majestically over the treetops until his destination came into sight, The Hill of Speio.

Ren was abandoned when he was a baby; up until then the pokemon of the realm had thought that their only was one lugia. It was one of the most amazing things they had ever seen, a real live baby lugia; and now hear he was, child of the sky.

Ren had often flew around the realm looking for his real parents but he had never found them; and to his annoyance he was forbidden to leave the realm for dangers lurked outside and his adopted parents weren't prepared to let him go out and get himself hurt.

During his early days of life many of the pokemon in the realm feared Ren because of his mythical status and once they contemplated killing him but fortunately they never carried out the order; they decided not to after Ren showed a strong interest in the teachings of Mew which made pokemon believe that he was no threat.

Ren loved two things more than anything else in the world swimming and flying. He loved them because they gave him a feel good sensation, especially flying. He loved the feel of the wind blowing against his face when he flew and he loved to look down on the world from above.

Ren also showed interest in learning about his many legendary abilities. He read about the original lugia as much as he could and apparently he had only discovered a tiny amount of the abilities that he possessed which drove him to train.

Every Wednesday he would practice battle on the ground, in the air and under water. He fought at his best when he was in the air, the high altitudes naturally motivated him to do his best, and he looked at the sky almost every day as if it was a very good friend that he hadn't seen for a while.

He heard stories about the original lugia being scary and intimidating but he was the opposite of the original; Ren was friendly and kind which made his adopted parents wonder why he was abandoned. Ren also wondered why he was abandoned; he had a dream once about flying with another lugia who in the dream said "I love you son." And when Ren awoke to find it had just been a dream he broke down in tears. All he ever wanted was to know his parents; was that really too much to ask?

When Ren landed on top of The Hill of Speio he sat down and looked over the realm; as always the sight fascinated him. He had a hard time believing that everything could look so small from so high up, he smiled and tucked his wings in. He always came to the hill before he began his training weekly training; coming to the hill raised his will because it gave him the privilege to see the world in a tiny form. After seeing his share of the sights he took flight again and flew towards the fields where he trained.

As he flew he caught sight of a mountain way in the distance that he was told never to go too. It was a volcano that Ren had seen explode once and he could still remember the smoke in the distance and all that red and orange magma pouring down its sides. It looked like the forest below had been coated in a red towel of fire; Ren had always been uncomfortable around fire.

While he continued to fly he noticed that a pidgey had joined him. Said pidgey was a friend of Ren, his flying buddy as he called him. Whirlwind was two years older than Ren but Ren was almost three times his size.

"Yo Ren, how ya doing?" the pidgey asked in a playful tone although it was hard to tell with the sound of the wind.

"I'm fine Whirlwind." Ren replied whilst he did a loop in the air. He and Whirlwind had always liked to show off their moves to one another and this was no exception.

"Glad to hear it." Whirlwind squawked. "Do you mind if I do a bit of training with you?"

Ren was surprised; Whirlwind, wanting to train? Now that was something new.

"Yeah sure." Ren said as he watched Whirlwind barrel roll in mid air which followed by a tail spin which almost resulted in him smacking into a tree.

"I've decided to do some training because I don't want you to make me look bad; all I keep hearing about is how well you can battle, yeah well I'm gonna beat you!" Whirlwind laughed.

Ren smiled at his friend who as far as he knew didn't even know how to fight. Still, his optimism was what Ren liked about his friend.

The two flew for a little longer until they came to the training fields. "Hello Ren, good to see you again." The instructing lucario said. "And who is this?" He nodded at the pidgey that stood next to Ren.

"This is Whirlwind." Ren said.

"Welcome Whirlwind." The lucario put out a paw to shake with Whirlwind who only obliged after a sharp nudge in the side by Ren.

"I take it he is here to train?" the lucario asked.

"Yeah I am lucario." Whirlwind said enthusiastically.

"Good" the lucario said. "And call me Aura."

"Can I battle Ren?" Whirlwind asked impatiently.

Aura's eyes widened. "You think you can take him?"

"I could take him blindfolded!" Whirlwind said.

"And what if I'm not blindfolded?" Ren asked with a laugh.

"Ha ha very funny" Whirlwind said. "Now are we gonna battle or what?"

"You are free to try" Aura said. "But I doubt that you'll do very well."

"Do you doubt my awesome power?" Whirlwind said protectively.

Aura concealed a laugh with a fake cough and said "Power is not how you win a battle Whirlwind; strategy is an important part of combat too."

"Ren won't know what hit him when I'm finished." Whirlwind said.

"Oh Aura, please don't let the bad pidgey hurt me!" Ren sniggered.

"Let your power do the talking Ren." Whirlwind said with eyes that suggested the famous saying bring it on.

"Just don't let the awesome pidgey kill you Ren." Aura joked.

"You think I can't beat him?" Whirlwind asked.

"Well let's see shall we?" Aura said. "Take your places."

Ren stood at one end of the field and Whirlwind fluttered above the other.

"Do ya feel lucky?" Whirlwind called over to Ren.

"Maybe." Ren said in a slow voice that Whirlwind hated more than anything in the world.

"You're goin down!" Whirlwind squawked.

"Just don't forget the blindfold!" Ren called over and Whirlwind rocketed at Ren at full speed, starting the battle.
