Five reviews? Oh sweet chocolate! I've been totally blown off my chair! For all the reviewers who rock, here's your short but quick-as-I-could-make-it update~ ;p

Replies:

At Hailley: Where's the chocochip cookies? ^^

At JKDD: Ok, I enjoy answering questions so 1. A roc is a mythical giant bird (for more details, you can google it! XD) 2. 'Big ones', they're the bigger versions of the weird lil creature Arcina's fostering. They'll appear soon, so don't worry ;) 3. The answer to that will be revealed. 4. Nope, not a crossover =q 5. I don't know what you were going to ask again lol 0.o

At Smiley: Jay could be his real name, or a 'real' nickname =)

At Happy Day: Thank you! Unique names are my obsession 8D! But I'm keeping the better ones with me since I get paranoid that someone will take them (like with Arty O' Del T_T) hence the common name, Kevin.

At JustSomeCPFan: Ye will review me other fanfics now! lol

Fear, Flight and Fantasy

It was the first time Kevin ever flew with someone else doing the flying. For Jet Pack Guy, aka Jay, it probably wasn't. Arcina's wide back provided a comfortable ride, but the penguins kept an eye out for the little one holding onto her long neck who didn't seem exactly... friendly. They were soaring over the 'mountains' to a place where Arcina hoped they'd find the Griffin. The creature, according to Arcina's word, had a knack for finding things, so perhaps he could help Jay and Kevin to the next opening in Clourdia that would lead back to the world of CP. Morning was slowly drawing into noon, and Kevin's stomach began its clamour for pizza.

"Um, Miss Arcina, what are we having for lunch?" The young penguin hollered over the wind.

The roc replied immediately, but the words were blurred.

"Cooked lobster," Jay passed on, since he was sitting in front and could hear better.

"Lobster? I've never eaten that before."

"Or maybe moonfishes and starfishes along with sunfishes."

Kevin pulled an WHAT! ? face even though none of them could see it.

"It's edible, trust me," the senior penguin reassured automatically.

"If you say so, Mister Jet Pack."

The little reptile (named Fiers as in 'fierce' by Kevin after it tried to bite him) hissed something that neither Jay or Kevin understood. Arcina did catch what it said though.

"Fiers here suggests you eat insects," she translated.

"Er, no thanks," Jay's beak curled down slightly.

"What! Bugs? Eugh! How can you eat that?" Kevin couldn't help exclaiming in disgust before he quickly apologized for his outburst. "I'll just have one roast lobster," he added more calmly.

Jet Pack Guy gave him a skeptical sideways glance over his shoulder.

"One roast lobster? Are you being serious?"

"Um, yes...? Is there anything wrong with that?"

Jay turned to face the front again.

"Personally, I think the lobsters here are very tasty, but ONE?" He shook his head.

"What's wrong with one?" Kevin asked nervously.

"Kid, do you know how HUGE those monsters are?"

"Very?"

"You can check it out yourself later."

Kevin held the bunch of oxygen-rich plants to his beak and inhaled deeply.

Boy, this needed getting used to.

Far behind them, a seagull followed them unnoticed. The crooked grin on its beak predicted troubled omens ahead for the oblivious group in the distance.

DrowningSea.

Was he up to any good at all?

Trivia:

Clourdia is a combo of Cloud and world.

Kevin is a very polite kid XD He says 'Miss Arcina' and 'Mister Jet Pack'

How I imagine Arcina:

Take Jewel from Rio and make her neck longer, like a swan. Vision the eyes a bit more slanted, the beak sharper and of a leaden colour. Feathers a bit more poofy around the end of the neck like a scruff. Colours of body are: cloud white on top and sky blue along the belly and under the wings and tail feathers. Tribal-ish silver tattoos on white wings and under the eys that only gleam at a certain low angle. Longish, dark gray, scaly legs equipped with black talons. Tail like a peacock's (silver 'eye' pattern), just not as heavy and much stronger.
