Also sorry for any and all typos that appeared in the last chapter and may appear in this one, I am typing this on my twin's phone and most of the time I don't really read over and or catch typos.

CHAPTER 2
The four children had donned on long black cloaks that most pirates from their ship were given and silently made their way through the sadida woods, the only guidance they had was of the castle in the distance growing larger as they continued forward. Colette cast a glance to the sky and watched as a large shape flew in a circle around the area then turned toward the other side of the island. Just by what she saw Colette could tell that the shape was most likely patrolling the area.
She swore under her breath as the small cloaked group continued forward. Aure stopped and seemed to pull her hood up further over her face as they came to a clearing. The three behind her watched as she turned and began walking along the edge of the tree line, Tristan looked and saw the reason for the redheads behavior.
Within the clearing four children played around a large wooden statue that stood proudly in the center. Tristan watched at a young redheaded Iop female chased around the other three, switching her target depending on who ever was closer.
Out of the other three was a blonde boy who, judging from the small wrist crossbow, was most likely a cra. The boy stopped running and stared in the direction that the four cloaked children stood. The redheaded girl noticed that he now stood frozen and ran over to the boy practically pushing him.
"Tag Flopin, you're it!" The girl called out as she raced away practically skipping at her assumed victory.
The boy, Flopin, didn't even seem to notice that he was it as he continued to stare into the trees searching for the figures hidden within. Gazing intently he leveled his wrist crossbow with the trees watching for movement.
...
I knew that the boy had seen us and if not all of us then one or two but, knowing he was a cra told me the best way was to show we 'meant no harm'. I tapped my sister on the shoulder and her red hair bounced as she turned her head, the two large beads hitting her shoulder from the movement.
"Aure you have to go out there and distract them." I said as I pointed to the clearing and the kids standing within. My sisters green eyes looked to the clearing and the kids then nodded. "Fine but don't wait up for me kay?" The three of us nodded the watched as she left the shade of the trees, her hands above her head in a friendly gesture and her hood down.
After she was gone it was just Leala, Tristan and me left as Aure distracted the children. I waved my hand in the universal gesture to get others to follow. Then without another word the three of us quietly maneuvered around the clearing and away from the children and my sister.
...
I didn't even look back as I stepped out into the clearing, pushing my hood down, and placing my hands were the children could see them. The Cra boy brought his wrist crossbow to the ground, never once taking his eyes off of me. The flame headed girl was practically bouncing on the spot as she watched me walk into the clearing. Then there were two other children that I couldn't quite place the races of. But the one with white hair had a dark brown hood with ears that resembled mine and Tristan headbands.
"Weren't there more of you?" The boy asked as he looked into the trees behind me. I shrugged and brought his attention back to me.
"Nope I was the only one..." I closed my eyes then smiled as I thought of something to add. "Well unless you saw my invisible friends in which case the Cra's eyes are far to powerful." The girl and the other two boys laughed.
The cra glared at his friends each in turn the smacked the Iop on the side of the head. "Shut up Elely." The girl looked about ready to tackle the boy for hitting her but instead pouted and turned. "Pretty sure mom would've yelled at you for hitting me." She said without looking at the boy, whom I now asked to be her brother.
"Fine," the boy said as he turned back to me. "Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself and my friends." I looked at him slightly shocked at the fact that he went from suspecting me to introducing his group all after hitting his sister. Not wanting to seem rude though I spy nodded my head.
"So I am Flopin, the one I just hit was my twin sister Elely." Flopin said as he pointed to him and his sister. "And then those two are Chibi and his brother Geougaloragran, but we usually call him Grougal." Flopin then pointed to the two who up to this point had stood in the background silently.
I looked at the two boys and couldn't help but notice the similarities between them and me, my sister, as well as Tristan and Leala.
Chibi was more like Tristan and me seeing as how he wore that eared hat and appeared more human, while his brother Grougal was more like Colette and Leala, since he was definitely dragon, but that didn't make any sense, since the captain had told me and the others that we were alone in the world and we would only really belong know the ship, but if we were really alone then how does that explain these two?
I was to caught up in my thoughts because next thing I knew I had a voice yelling at me. "Hey miss are you okay?!" I shook my head and directed my attention back to the kids who were a few years younger then me.
"Right sorry, you can just call me Aure." I said as I rubbed the back of my head in embarrassment. Then it wasn't long after the introductions that we were running around the clearing playing tag, a game which I had never played quickly died down and then the five of us found ourselves seated on and around the bench that sat in front of the wooden statue.
"So who is that a statue of?" I couldn't help but ask in the silence that surrounded us, before any of the children answered I couldn't help but wonder where the rest of my group were or if they had managed to make it to the palace. I was quickly pulled from my thoughts as the Elely answered.
"Oh that's a statue of our dad." I looked at her shocked, then I looked back at the statue, I saw a slight resemblance, but then again most Iops looked the same. There was a Iop of the ship even who could've been some relative of her fathers. "He saved the Sadida Kingdom from the Xelor, who attacked before we were born." Elely continued to explain. After that we started getting into a conversation of what their parents were like.
"So what about your parents?" Chibi asked as he shifted his position on the dirt, getting comfortable once again. I looked up at the sky trying to think of how to answer that.
"Well I've never met my mom she was gone before I was old enough to remember her..." I paused not sure what else to say. "What about your dad?" Chibi asked. I sighed then looked at the Statue of the Iop Hero.
"My dad, is a heartless, shell of a man, who only orders me and my siblings around. He seems to find joy in scary all of us to the end of the earth, and doesn't care much for any signs of emotion." I started saying, I wasn't even aware of what was leaving my mouth till it was too late. But in the end I felt kinda relieved to have said it. The four kids seemed shocked that I said that about the one I called father, but they didn't know that I was just describing the captain of a pirate ship.
"So then who takes care of you?" I was expecting that question and was slightly peeved that this conversation was suddenly geared towards me and my life. I let it slide though with a sigh and explained.
"Well although my dad doesn't really care about me or any of my siblings, one of my older brothers does." I then looked at the sky, trying to estimate the time then looked back at the kids.
"Shoot I was supposed to me my family over by the palace, I better get going." Then before any of the kids could ask any questions I turned and raced toward the large tower that I could see in the distance. Before I was completely out of ear shot I yelled back to the kids one final time.
"And if you guys could, don't tell anyone you saw me!"
...
"She's been gone a long time." Tristan mumbled as he leaned against the shadowed wall of the Sadida Palace. I sighed and looked back to the trees, I know she said not to wait up but, it would be better if we all went in so that we wouldn't have to worry about loosing one another. Leala was her ever silent self and most definitely didn't help the situation as she paced in front of the tree line, every once in a while looking up, trying to locate the shadow patrolling the sky. I was leaning against the wall with Tristan looking out into the trees, watching for some sign that Aure was coming.
As I was getting ready to look for her myself a rustling in the leaves caught my attention. I pushed off of the wall and practically yelled with joy as Aure's red head pushed through the trees and her light green eyes searched the area and then our eyes met. She let out a sigh and pushed herself completely out of the bushes and ran over to were we stood in the shadows.
"I told you not to wait up." Aure said as she came to a stop in front of me. Since Aure appeared I noticed that Leala had stopped her pacing and Tristan had since pushed himself from the wall. I decided not to tell her why we waited and simply shrugged.
"Well it doesn't matter, cause you are here now." She didn't ask any questions, and so the four of us looked up to one of the lower windows on the castle, one that still towered above us, and prepared ourselves for the job we had been given
A.N. Yay second chapter, and sorry if it got confusing with the P.O.V's if it got confusing please tell me so that I may fix that up... other then that I don't have anything else to say so...
Until Next time Peace Love and Virtual Hugs
