I don't own Storm Hawks or any of the characters. I only own this story and the characters not in the cartoon.
Atmos world of a thousand mountain top kingdoms. Some know to all and some hidden to even the world it's self. The kingdom terra of Erollonging was one hidden to the entire world, even the Cyclonians didn't know about the terra. That was a miracle in itself.
Terra Erollonging was surrounded by mountains on all sides, besides a large break near the South of the mountain range. Large amounts of Cloaking Crystals and Leechers covered the mountains and hid the terra from enemies. Forest covered every square inch of the terra, except for the area the royal castle and village in the center of the terra.
Thee inhabits of Terra Erollonging were a diverse people. The population mostly consisted of humans, but there were also some Wallops and Blizzarians among the citizens.
The terra was ruled by a kind hearted king named King Aaron Longing and his beautiful and wise wife, Queen Anya Longing. King Aaron was a tall, dark skinned, muscled man with neatly kept black hair, kind dark eyes, and a neatly trimmed beard. Queen Anya was a small, thin, light skinned, had long wavy black hair in a ponytail and beautiful violet eyes.
The king and queen were out horseback riding through the forest. Queen Anya set her black mare into a lightning fast run. King Aaron tried to keep up on his dark brown stallion.
"Slow down Anya. You are acting like a child. It is not fit for the queen of an entire terra to be seen so childish." scolded King Aaron.
Queen Anya chuckled and stopped her horse. Her husband stopped next to her. The queen gave her husband a kiss on the cheek.
"You need to loosen up Aaron. Our terra is protected by vast mountains and millions of Cloaking and Leecher Crystals. Not even the Cyclonians could find us. Our people have been safely hidden here for ten generations. Some ships might crash on our terra from time to time, but they are normally small vessels and there are few survivors. The people that do survive join our village and become part of our people." reasoned Queen Anya.
The royal king and queen were about to share a kiss when they heard a large crash. The king drew his normal sword from his belt and got in front of his wife.
"Who's there? Show yourself coward. Who dares sneak up on the rulers of Terra Erollonging." yelled King Aaron.
Out of the bushes stepped a badly wounded female Merb. Merbs were cold-blooded human like creatures with green skin, four fingers; three toes, long pointed ears, and were jumpy and paranoid by nature. The female Merb fainted from loss of blood.
The queen ran to the side of the fallen Merb. The Merb managed to raise her head and look into the queen's violet eyes.
"Please look after my baby." weakly said the Merb.
She then closed her eyes and died. Queen Anya took notice of the bundle in the Merb's arms. King Aaron rushed to the side of his wife. He noticed his wife holding a bundle in her arms.
"What is it?" asked King Aaron.
The queen turned around and looked at her husband. A baby male Merb, no older than four months, with black hair and green eyes, was in the queen's arms.
The husband and wife mounted their horses and rode back to the palace. Ina a matter of moments they reached the palace. They gave their horses to a stable-boy and rushed into the palace.
King Aaron and Queen Anya changed out of their riding clothes and into more appropriate royal robes. Once the king and queen were properly dressed they went to one of the many family rooms in the palace.
In the family room were three people. A four year old dark skinned boy with black hair and violet eyes played with a two year old light skinned girl with black hair and even blacker eyes. They were being watched by a man in his mid twenties with long blond hair in a ponytail and dressed in noble clothing and gold armor.
The children were Prince Erol and Princess Alexandra who was called Alexa by her brother. The man watching them was King Aaron's best friend and most trusted soldier, Sir Stryker.
Erol and Alexa ran to their parents. Queen Anya bent down and hugged her son and daughter. Alexa noticed the baby in her mother's arms.
"Why are you holding that baby mommy?" sweetly asked Alexa.
Queen Anya smiled and lightly laughed. She looked at her husband. The king smiled and nodded his head.
"This baby is going to be part of our family, Alexandra. You and Erol have a new baby brother." told Queen Anya.
Sir Stryker walked over to his best friend and put a hand on the king's shoulder. King Aaron told his friend how he and his wife found their new son.
"So what are you going to call the new prince?" wondered Sir Stryker.
Queen Anya stood up from the ground. She smiled and nodded at her husband. The king let out a light smile.
"I promised that if I ever had another son I would name him after my closest and most loyal friend. The child's name is Stryker, after the man that saved my life." declared King Aaron.
Sir Stryker was completely speechless.
"I am honored you named your child after me your highness." stammered Sir Stryker.
King Aaron chuckled and strongly gripped his friend's shoulder.
"It is the least I can do after you saved my life. Now all that has to be decided is the child's middle name." stated King Aaron.
Queen Anya walked to her husband her new son sleeping in her arms. A smile crossed the queen's soft and kind face.
"We already know the child's middle name. It will be Lee, after my father. Like how we named Alexandra after my mother." proclaimed Queen Anya.
King Aaron smiled and pats his new son on the head.
"Then it is decided. I hereby declare the young Stryker Lee Longing is now a prince of the royal family." announced King Aaron.
This is how a Merb came to be a prince of a secret hidden terra.
