Kids.

That's what Carver called us. Just kids.

What right did he have to judge me? Just because he had been alive a few years longer?

I'm just as much of a sky knight as he is, no matter what the council says.

We don't need their approval to know we're good. Or to do what's right.

We're going to do great things. They'll see. And they'll realize that its not age that counts, but dedication. It's the sacrifice. The sense of purpose.

They think we're just kids?

Please.

We're the Storm Hawks.

OOO
