Stork fell to the ground, clutching his head in pain as his dark side retreated and his normal self could once more control the body. The first thing Stork did was yell loudly in anger and sadness at what he had done that day. He had stabbed Finn, disrespected Piper in the worst way, and seriously injured Aerrow and probably given Junko nightmares for weeks and a new scar. Tears fell from his eyes as he wailed loudly. He just cried and cried and wailed in mourning of his old life. He was so ashamed and guilt ridden that he ran to the bathroom and vomited into the sink.
After the violent fit he crawled over to the bed and curled up in the very center. He continued to cry until he was breathing hard and felt exhausted. He was almost asleep when the clock struck one and the familiar pain returned to his head and he was once again pushed to the back of his own mind.
As the Dark Shadow took over once again it thanked the fact that it only needed to sleep for an hour and be ready for more. Stork decided to explore the base and see what his new home was like. When he went to the door he heard it being unlocked and opened to show the same girl from earlier. He smiled down at her and nodded. She nodded back and left without a word.
"Now where to start?" wondered Stork out loud. Then he heard some loud shouts and decided there might be a fight, "I guess I'm going this way." Said Stork as he followed the sounds to just outside on the landing pad
On the landing pad were Snipe and Repton arguing about whose bike was better. Stork looked at both bikes and started laughing so loud that the two stopped arguing to look over. When they saw this strange new Merb they both growled. Snipe walked forward and stopped just in front of Stork before asking, "Who are you and why are you laughing?"
"I'm laughing because both of your bikes are crap. It's no wonder your butts are always being kicked. Jus look at those wind levers and thruster engines. And you fuel intake systems are jokes." Said Stork as he continued to laugh so hard that he was now holding his gut. He calmed down instantly as Snipe picked him up and he said angrily, "Put me down Snipe or you'll be sorry."
"Oh yeah you little snot?"
Stork looked up with an evil smile, "Yeah." Before suddenly he kicked Snipe in the chest did a back flip and landed on his feet on top of the now pinned Snipe, "And the name is Stork, or toad to Repton's knowledge."
"The Storm Hawk Merb?" asked Repton from his position by his bike
"Yeah…but I don't like that old name anymore." He grabbed Snipe by the front of his shirt and gave him a razor sharp smile, "Call me Shadow.
