Hello again! Here's another chapter from me! And since I didnt mention it in the last chapter, this story takes place during the Subspace Emissary, and FANG.

Chapter 2: Another World
Previously…
I jumped and tried to fly away, but it was too late. The force was too powerful. It pulled me in, and I was plunged into darkness.
It felt like I was free falling. It was like an endless hole that kept going on for eternity.
'Why cant I just fly out of here?' I thought. With that, I stretched my wings and flapped as hard as I could.
I was flying!…I think. I couldn't tell which way was this or which was that. At one point, it felt like I was upside down, which made my stomach churn so hard I thought it would twist in two pieces.
So I had stopped my attempts to fly out, and let myself continue to fall. And since I didn't mention it, let me tell you: free falling, or flying, in 100% total darkness is scary as hell. And I would know!
After some 20 minutes or so, the darkness became a blinding light. I closed my eyes, and gasped, but breathed in dirt as I hit the ground.
Coughing, I sat up and looked at my surroundings once my eyes adjusted to the light. It was a desert. Like the one where I fought the Ancient Minister, but somehow different. For example, I felt a lot heavier than I did before, not that I weighed much anyway.
Knowing my limitations, I tried to double jump, but immediately fell back to the ground. I tried it again, but using more force this time. I jumped a lot higher than the first time, but still no double jump.
Seeing if the same thing would apply, I jumped and flapped my wings, flying as high as I could go. Surprisingly, I flew higher than I expected to, and stayed in the air for several minutes. Gently getting back on the ground, I checked to see where I had my limits.(1) This was the results:
-double jumping = not happening
-flying = no usual limit. Need to find actual limit when I have the time
-bow/swords = minimal damage from fall. swords are good. The bow and arrow, …arrows don't curve once shot. I'm a bit annoyed at this.
-mirror shield = looks like a regular clear shield. No idea if it still works
One thing was clear as crystal though. This was no where near to being the Smash world. Not even close.
'Maybe I should look around for people. Maybe they can help me get back.' I knew that the chances were slim, seeing that I got here by falling into a black hole, but I had no other ideas.
I jumped up in the air and spread out my wings. Boy did it feel good to fly! Soaring high, I looked around to see if I could spot anything. There seemed to be a nearby town, maybe a few miles off. I darted in the direction.
About more than halfway there, something zipped right past my face. I halted in mid-air, and stayed where I was.
Zwooooop!
Another one came right by, barely missing my wings. I looked down and saw some black dots in the distance. I couldn't make out exactly what they were, but one of those black dots seemed to be holding a black toothpick…
Whish!
I was being fired at! Panicking, I basically flew around in, literally, circles, not knowing what to do. I randomly picked a direction, and shot forward. Before I had a chance to see if they were still following me, another bullet zipped past me. 'Question…asked, and answered.'
Running away was not the best idea, seeing that I was getting tired, and the people were still following me. The only option left was to go on the offensive.
I stopped for a minute, then swooped down towards the ground. Forget skydiving. If I wasn't attacking a bunch of men who were trying to shoot me down, this could have been fun.
Not thinking, I crashed into the nearest … camel? Either way, I knocked the animal down. Scratch that. I knocked all three of us down: me, the camel, and the man on top of the camel. Quickly getting on my feet, I hit two guys with my bow, not bothering to use both swords.(2) It's not like I wanted to kill these people. Even after my series of attacks, they easily got back up and were aiming for me again.
I ran and jumped into the air again, but with difficulty this time. My wings were getting sore. To make matters worse, I was about a quarter of a mile away, and forty feet in the air when I heard a couple of bangs and felt sharp pains in my side and one of my wings. I was hit.
My body started to plummet down back to the earth. I tried to flap, but it shot an immense pain through my wing, and I couldn't get back to hovering. As a last resort, I fully stretched out my wings, and tried to glide back down. It worked, but I was still going to hit the ground at about seventy miles an hour.
Trying to soften up the landing, I put my feet down, but it only made things worse. As soon as my feet touched the ground, I flipped and hit the dirt face first, then did a couple more flips, each one painful.
My whole body was sore, and I couldn't make an effort to get up. Whoever the camel men were(lol, camel men), they had me. I waited in pain for then to come, but they never did. It was because of my wings. Maybe if I had looked like a normal person, I probably wouldnt have been shot down. Using whatever energy I had left, I tucked my wings under my clothing. if anyone came by, mybe they would help me.
Relaxing for the first time in hours, I let sleep take over, even if it was in the middle of a freaking desert. For the second time that day, I was plunged into darkness.
Well another chapter is done and up. I am hoping to update every two weeks, sooner, if possible.
Heads up for next chapter: First part is taken out of the book, with some changes. I hate copying stuff, but i see no erason to change that first part. anyway, a preview of the next chapter
"Guys, look!" Angel said, pointing down. Some of the dust had cleared up in the back, and we could make out a tiny black dot in the ground. It looked familiarly like a human body.
(1)These are the moves Pit uses in the game, so normally he would see what he can and cant do in this new world.
(2) In case anyone doesn't remember, Pit's bow is actually two swords combined.
See ya next chapter
