Chapter 2

I sat up in my nest, my eyes were wide open and I was gasping heavily. A nightmare had gotten me up earlier before the other protectors , but like most nightmares you see it once when you are asleep,But it seems gone when you wake up. I looked around, my heart was still beating fast, and all I heard was the sound of soft snoring coming from Daylight, the only other Skarmory my age. I think back to the nightmare and then look back at Daylight. So, I think to myself, she was the one from the dream but why was the Dark Sableye torturing her and why did I care, last time I checked I only cared about me and my Father. I shut my eyes and lay back down. I will resolve this tomorrow I think. Boy, was I wrong.

As I was walking around the cave I noticed My Dad looking an little on the depressed side, I asked him what was wrong and replied with, "Get them ready we will have to handle them alone." At first I didn't know what he was talking about but then I saw about an 100 Raticates climbing towards the cave. Running as fast as I could thru the narrow cave I yelled,

"Everybody looks like we have our hands full, so I hope your claws are sharp!"

They replied with a loud hoot and start to follow me. We dash thru the cave to see our 2 of our night guards on the floor with the metal armour ripped and torn. The even worse news was: There was about 60 Raticates behind them. The scary thing was that these Raticates were different than the normal ones, these ones had dark,dark, dark red eyes…..
