Heya guys! I have a lot of stories to write and always in the need for some time to think about later chapters, already got a concept down for the next one which takes place after Rokakku is beaten. Anyways, this one I felt should show Silver a bit more and Aurum as well. Sky Dinosaurian Square, first time.

Beat and the gang skidded to a stop, facing the traitor Yoyo and his two noise tank lackeys. Cube jumped down, blew his disguise, and was grabbed by one of the noise tanks. They walked over to where the rails were, allies blowing by them, and being chased by everyone except Beat, Corn, Gum, Aurum, and Silver. The tank had enough of Cube's struggling, and he simply threw her over the rail into the night sky, where she'd fall to her death, or be run over by a car. Silver groaned in frustration and looked at his sister, who nodded at him.

No more encouragement needed.

"Hang on Cube!" Silver called out, leaping down with no hesitation. He quickly grabbed onto her hand, cape missing, with two massive wings in place instead. She glanced down, noting that he had scales on his arms and claws for fingernails. He pulled her back up, where Corn approached him furiously.

"You're kicked out." Corn snarled, while Gum and Beat looked at him like he was crazy.

"M'kay." He started skating away, along with Aurum, while everyone looked at them in confusion.

"Not the first to kick us out, not the last." Aurum said with a shrug. "Just happens whenever we finally start feeling like we can trust someone."

Behind the two, Cube took off after them. Gum glanced over to Corn and snapped at him. "What the hell were you thinking?"

"That those two have secrets and are willing to keep their true evil to themselves to trick us into trusting them." He retorted.

"Since when have they shown signs of being evil?!" Beat asked him.

"..."

"EXACTLY YOU IDIOT!" Beat took off as well, while Gum stayed behind.

"Where are you going?" Corn yelled after him.

"To see if I can comfort them or even join up with them, they clearly understand being a good group more so than you!"

Gum shook her head at Corn. "You just lost your gang big time." By this time, the others had returned and watched the aftermath in confusion. They skated after Gum, who was going after Silver and Aurum.

Silver sighed, head buried in his still-scaled hands, while Aurum whispered softly as she talked to him. She tensed when she heard skates, expecting it to be Corn, and got the surprise of her life when it was Cube. "What do you want?" She asked, slightly wary.

"Just.. wanted to pay you back for saving me earlier." She sat down next to Silver, who hadn't moved from his spot. "I thought I heard some others coming down-"

"You did." Beat, Gum, and the rest of the gang minus Corn were there. "I disagree with Corn, and it seems most of the others do too."

"Hey, Aurum, can you do any cool tricks like Silver?" Gum piped up suddenly. Aurum stood up with a sigh, before turning into a small cat with golden fur.

"SHE'S ADORABLEEEEE!" Beat glanced over at Gum in surprise. He felt a weight on his shoulder, and turned to see Aurum sitting on it. She had a black and blue mask on her face, hiding it.

"Wait, why the mask?"

"Boys faint if I even blink at them with my face revealed. It's kinda strange." Beat sat down next to Silver, and Aurum leapt into his lap.

"We're not gonna be like Corn was to you."

"What was his excuse?" Aurum suddenly asked.

"Something about Silver hiding secrets and being evil for it?" Gum shrugged. "Didn't really understand what he meant."

"That's one of the lighter ones I've heard." Aurum said with a sigh, laying her head down in Beat's lap. He wasted no time and started to pet her.

Silver finally looked up, entire face scaled as well, with small fangs poking out of his mouth. "Why?" He croaked out. "Why does this always happen? Are we really that different?"

Gum suddenly hugged him, and the others quickly followed suit. "No." Cube said suddenly.

"You're just feared for who you are." Silver couldn't be more surprised.

"You don't hate me?"

"Are you kidding? I don't think anyone - except Gouji - could hate you." Gum stated matter-of-factly. He gently wrapped a wing around as many of them as he could reach, feeling a bit better. "Also, someone like you? Different? Yes, but in a bad way? No."

"Hey guys? This is nice and all, but can we save this for until we get back to the Garage in case of Hayashi?"

He spoke too late. They'd been on the highway, and the electrical fence went up. "Well screw him." Beat growled as he looked at him.

"You know what guys? I'm done hiding my true self. I'm done with being a fake. I'm ready to take on that loser!" They stepped away from his path of choice, smiles on their faces. He suddenly lunged at Hayashi, who shot at him.

He fainted when he saw that his bullets just bounced off of Silver's scales.

"Welp, we can go home." Silver walked away, tail flicking back and forth. "I'm gonna go to Chuo Street with my sister later, been hearing rumors about a new Rudie hanging out there."

"Isn't Co-"

"Gum, even if Corn shows up, what can he do?" The gang skated back in silence.

Basically Corn got a little too worried that Silver would be a traitor and overreacted. Until next time, this is Destiny, signing off!
