Chapter Two: Truths are Told…

"The wind," Aurora said shaking slightly. "The wind says the Talons are coming! They're not far away!" She stood up and another gust came knocking her into Aerrow, who wrapped his arms around her shoulders as he skidded on the Condor. They stopped and looked around then noticed the position they were in, and quickly let go. Aerrow then grabbed Aurora's hand and ran toward the hatch. Making Aurora go down first, Aerrow scanned the skies trying to see the Talons, but he couldn't see any. Aerrow jumped down grabbing the hatch and closing it, then grabbing Aurora's hand again they ran to the bridge. Everyone was already there, and when they came in the room Piper ran up to Aurora and looked her over. Aerrow was confused.

"Piper what are you doing?" he asked, as Piper looked up to glare at him. She pointed to Aurora who was frowning slightly. Then he noticed how deathly pale she had gotten, and she was shaking uncontrollably.

"What's wrong?" he asked, more so to Piper, because Piper would tell him what was really wrong with Aurora. He heard Aurora huff.

"She's using her powers," she said glaring at Aurora. "I looked out the scope and saw at least 200 Talons coming, then suddenly they stopped, and they kept hitting something. At first I didn't know what it was till the gusts of wind came and started knocking us back towards the clouds. She put up a wind barrier about 10 miles wide, surrounding the Condor! Then she's using gusts of wind to knock us back!" When Piper was finished, everyone was staring at Aurora, who just looked at the floor. Radarr came running in and jumped on Aurora's shoulder and rubbed her face again. She petted his head then looked up at everyone. Everyone could see the results of using her powers was draining her energy, because her legs were shaking and her skin was almost ghost white.

"I did put the barrier around us," she finally said her voice sounding weak. "But I'm not responsible for the gusts of wind. That's the Dark Ace's doing." Everyone froze and Aerrow clinched his fists.

"How's the Dark Ace doing this?" he demanded, making Aurora flinch a little. She looked up at him with pain in her eyes, and he instantly regretted it.

"When they captured me they stole just a drop of my powers," she said looking at Aerrow only. "It wasn't much but it was enough to create gusts of wind at will. But he can only do four at a time, or he'll lose consciousness." Everyone looked at each other, frowning, but Aerrow looked at Aurora.

"Is that what will happen to you if you use your power to much?" he asked, frowning slightly. Aurora nodded her head.

"Yes that's what happens to me," she said looking him in the eyes. "But if Cyclonis takes all of my powers I could die." Aerrow's stomach twisted into several knots.

"What happened when she told just a drop of your powers?" Piper asked. Aurora looked at her and shrugged.

"I lost about a year or two of my life," she said simply. Everyone stared in horror at her saying it so calmly. Piper looked like she was going to cry, which Aurora saw but she smiled.

"Don't worry guys," she said petting Radarr's head. "If I can get the power they stole back, I get those years back too!" Everyone looked at her.

"Are you serious?" Junko asked looking at her hopefully. Aurora nodded.

"As a heart attack!" she said smiling. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Aerrow on the other hand was still frowning. But before he could say anything the sirens on the Condor went off. Stork ran and looked through the scope. He looked around to Aerrow and motioned for him to come look. Aerrow took the scope and looked through them, and he felt his stomach drop. About fifty of the Talons, including the Dark Ace, were about to break through Aurora's wind barrier. Aerrow turned around to tell Aurora when she doubled over and screamed. He was about to go to her but Piper beat him there. He looked at Piper who was holding Aurora as she continued shaking. Piper looked back up at Aerrow and nodded at him. He sighed then turned back to the scope. Only just in time to see the Dark Ace's face before another gust of wind, more powerful than the other two, knocked into the side of the Condor, sending the ship barrel rolling. As everyone tried to hold on, Aerrow thought he saw Aurora doing something with her hands. Then suddenly the Condor came to a halt and everyone fell to the floor. Everyone groaned and stood on shaking knees, and looked around.

"Is everyone alright?" Aerrow asked rubbing his head. He heard a groan from everyone so he guessed they were just fine. He looked around and saw Aurora standing up too. She looked over at him and smiled. Then the Condor shook again. Aerrow looked out through the scope. The Talons were attacking the ship. Aerrow started out of the bridge.

"Storm Hawks! Let's fly!" he said heading down to the hanger. Finn, Junko, Piper and Aurora followed him. When they got down there Aerrow noticed Aurora getting on her skimmer.

"You are staying here," he said walking over to her. She glared up at him.

"You're going to need everybody if you want to beat them today Aerrow," she said still glaring at him. "So I'm coming!" Piper walked over.

"I agree with Aerrow, Aurora," she said frowning. "You need to stay here, you're already weak from using your wind powers." Aurora gaped at Piper. Then she looked back and forth between Piper and Aerrow. When she saw she wasn't going to win this fight, she just sighed and got off her skimmer.

"You win today," she said glaring at them all. "But if you get hurt today, I'll personally beat each of you!" Everyone smiled and got onto their skimmers.

"Well then," Aerrow said smiling back at Aurora. "That will be motivation not to get hurt then." Aurora smiled. Everyone fired up their skimmers and took off flying to meet the Talons.

(OK switching gears here! I'll be switching between Aerrow's POV and Aurora's POV! Don't worry I'll let you know when we switch!)

Aerrow's POV

I flew toward the fifty Talons attacking the Condor, mostly just the Dark Ace. He, unfortunately, saw me first before I could get a battle plan together in my head. Oh boy…. I looked over at Radarr to make sure he was with me, and he looked back at me and smiled. I smiled back and gunned my skimmer, racing toward mine and the Dark Ace's dual……again…..

Aurora's POV

Stupid…..Idiot…..Can't take help when he needs it…. I was muttering curses at the others for leaving me here when I was in perfect condition to fight! OK…maybe not perfect condition, but pretty close for me! Then I stopped realizing something, only Stork was on the ship. A grin came over my face. I looked out of the hanger doors, and saw Aerrow and the dark Ace fighting… Piper and Finn were tag teaming about ten Talons, and Junko was punching about four Talons….I thought real quick of a plan….Which of course was just go with the flow and pray you and the others don't die….I ran to my skimmer, made sure I had my sword. (She's got one similar to the Dark Ace's but of course it glows blue not red….Back to the story….) I fired up my skimmer and flew out of the hanger doors and went up to Junko first and knocked over a Talon who was behind him. He looked behind him to see me.

"What are you doing here?" he asked shocked. "Aerrow and Piper both said to stay on the Condor!" I smiled back at him.

"And when have Aerrow or Piper one stopped me before?" I asked flying off to help Piper and Finn.

Aerrow's POV

Dodge….Swing right …..Right again…..Now left… I kept that pattern up with the Dark Ace. I was surprised he hadn't figured out my pattern yet….Just then I heard an explosion, I quickly glanced around and saw it was Finn…again….But Piper had caught him and he was behind her on her ride. Then I saw something fly past them and take out about ten Talons…Who is that? I looked closer and, to my horror, saw Aurora's smirking pale face. What the hell is she doing here?! I'm going to kill that girl!! Just then the Dark Ace's fist hit my jaw. There were stars for a brief moment but I recovered and blocked his sword with one of my blades. Then out of nowhere came a Talon, racing right for my head, but before I could react a blur knocked the Talon out of the sky. I looked to se Aurora grinning at me.

"What are you doing here?" I demanded, frowning slightly. I looked to my right and saw the Dark Ace come flying at me but a gust of wind knocked him off his skimmer and his parachute deployed. He was shouting curses at us on his way down to the wastelands. I looked back at Aurora who had her hand stretched out toward the Dark Ace, and she was panting slightly. I flew over to her to check on her, but she shook her head and pointed to the rest of the Talons.

"We have to get rid of them first," she said, still panting. "Then you can lecture me!" I frowned.

"How are we supposed to get rid of them all?" I asked. She smirked at me again.

"Get the others back to the Condor," she said revving her skimmer. "I have an idea."

Aurora's POV

OK…Everyone on the Condor…..Check…Everyone knows the plan….Kinda check cause Junko's probably already forgotten the plan…

"Guys?" came Junko's voice through the radio's Aurora had given them. "What was the plan again?" I knew it… I sighed and explained the plan again.

"Listen Junko," I said looking around the corner of the hallway at Junko. "Aerrow and Finn are going to bring the rest of the Talons here near the Condor. Then you and Piper are going to start shooting them down with the cannons. Stork is going to keep flying the ship and we're going to act like we are retreating. Do you understand?" I saw Junko nod.

"OK, now I understand," he said. "But…What are you doing?" I turned back around the corner so Junko couldn't see me.

"That's a surprise," I whispered. Man, I wish I had a better plan than this! I knew the whole plan, unlike the others. I acted like I was going to rest because everyone was glaring at me for leaving the Condor. My part of the plan was that I was going to go onto the landing pad and call all the wind in the area. With that I would blow all the Talons, even the ones in the wastelands, all the way back to Cyclonia. I just hope I have enough strength…. Just then I heard Aerrow's voice.

"We're here and they are mad!" he almost sounded amused. Finn's annoyed voice came next.

"Only you would find this fun," he sighed. I smiled to myself, and heard Piper and Junko laughing.

"OK everybody," I said making my way down to the hanger. "On the count of four we'll start this plan. One…"

"Two…," came Finn's voice.

"Three…," came Piper's voice.

"FOUR!" came Aerrow's voice. The cannons fired and the Condor dodged shots and started towards the clouds. I ran down the stairs and ran onto the landing pad, and looked around me. Aerrow and Finn were tag teaming about ten of the remaining thirty or so Talons, as Piper and Junko shot the rest out of the sky. I stood there and watched for a few seconds. OK Aurora….You can do this… I took a deep breath, then, concentrated. I felt the wind whip around me, making my bangs hit my face. Then my strength started leaving me, when I heard the wind call to me.

What is it that you wish, child?

I wish for you to use my power to blow all these Talons back to Cyclonia!

Even those in the wastelands?

Even those in the wastelands…

Who are you protecting, child?

That caught me by surprise.

My friends…They are the ones I care about the most…

And a certain red haired boy?

I nearly fell over. How in the world did the wind know this?! Oh yeah… I told it. I took a slow and shaky breath.

Did you find the boy you told me about?

Yes I did….

And you want to protect him?

Yes…

I will do as you wish…It may hurt, little one…..I'm sorry…

Pain! It felt like every inch of my body was on fire! Then someone was stabbing me all over, especially my heart! It hurt! I shut my eyes as tears rolled down my face, but I felt the wind pick up and I heard the screams of the Talons. I opened my eyes and saw that they were being tossed around in what looked like a ball of wind. The ball gathered the Talons around us, then disappeared under the clouds into the wastelands. When it appeared again it had the rest of the Talons, including the Dark Ace, and it headed toward Cyclonia.

I'll take care of the rest little one….

Are you sure?

Yes…Now rest little one…Your friends are coming…

And the pain vanished and I stood on shaking legs and everything swam in front of me. I heard the skimmers land and heard people coming down the stairs. I felt real dizzy. Hands grasped my shoulders and I saw what I guessed was Aerrow's face.

"What did you do?" he asked. His voice sure is far off….I wonder why?

"I created a wind strong enough to get all the Talons and take them back to Cyclonia," I answered slowly. Wow…Even I sound far away….

"But why?" Aerrow asked. I looked at his face and for an instant his face cleared up to show it was full of concern. Then it started to fade away just like the rest of the world.

"Because I'm not the weak one anymore," I heard myself say before the world collapsed around me.

Well? What do you think? Please R&R. I'll try to up date soon but it's like 12:15 in the morning and I have class tomorrow, so I'm going to go to bed!! Thanks for reading!!! LATER!! XD
