Hey again, peeps! Here's the next chapter!

"Rescued for a New Beginning"

Sora opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was a wooden ceiling.

What? Where am I?

She focused her eyes a bit more and looked at her surroundings.

She was on a bed, quite a comfortable one, and the room she was in was not her own.

Oh gosh…what happened?...I can't remember anything.

She sat up, only to find that her arm was bandaged. She felt pain immediately zing into her body and let out a little yell.

"AHH! What? Why? I can't-"

She looked over to her right, and there sitting on a chair, was a woman, who appeared to be watching over Sora.

"AHH! WHO ARE YOU?"

"Honey! Honey! Calm down, dear!"

"HOW CAN I CALM DOWN IF I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE I AM? AND WHO YOU ARE?" Sora attempted to get out of the bed, momentarily forgetting about her bandages, then remembering she had them on once the pain came back.

"Sora! You need to calm down! Rest! Lay down in the bed!" the woman said.

Sora turned around slowly. She knows my name?

"You…you know my name?"

"Oh, dear. Yes, I do know your name. Please come back into the bed and lay down. You need to hear about a lot of things."

Sora hesitated for a bit, then gave in and got back into the bed.

"Here. Lay down, and I'll tell you everything. You must be so confused, you poor thing. Just listen to what I have to say, alright?"

"O…okay."

Sora, was indeed confused. She did need to know a lot of things.

"First of all, you can call me Rosie. I'm the manager of this inn, on Terra Klias, in which you are staying for awhile until you heal."

"Oh..h-hi. Wow…I…th-thank you for…saving me," Sora stuttered.

"Oh, honey! You're very sweet, but save the thank you for later. What's more important is your well being, and you knowing what's going on.

Sora nodded her head.

"First of all, I want you to know that you are safe here, on Terra Klias. You were supposedly in danger, being chased after the Talons, hmm?"

Sora nodded her head yet again.

"Well, those damn Talons won't know that you are here. So you are perfectly safe here, dear. Anyway, don't thank me for saving you. Your brother, Aerrow, did. And if he didn't come any sooner, you probably wouldn't have survived with the rain and your broken arm and all. "

"Oh! Aerrow! Where's Aerrow! I need to see him! And Radarr too!"

"Honey! Dear! It's alright! Calm down, he's fine. He's sitting outside.

"Oh…I…I see."

"But anyway, the last thing I suppose you remember, was that you crashed into a tree on the terra?"

Sora then remembered. Her head was flooded with flashbacks, starting from when her Dad fell into the woods, till the moment she fainted. She only heard Rosie in the background.

"Your brother, Aerrow, the sweet child he is, he came and knocked on my door. It was actually quite late at night, and it was still raining, and-"

"Dad? Dad! Where are you?"

"Sora! Get away from here! Go away!"

"-when I opened the door, I saw your brother and his friend all drenched! He brought me to where you crashed, it was such a shock to see you just lying there!"

"What? What happened to Gunner?…Jake?...Enna?...Zoram?"

"…they're all gone…"

"NO! That can't be!"

"So I brought you into my inn, and fixed you up. Your brother was very worried about you, he cried and didn't stop until after I told him that you were going to be okay. The poor kid really cares for you."

"Sora! They're coming! GO!"

"What? Dad! NO! I'm not leaving without you! Aerrow wouldn't either!"

"Sora! You have to go NOW! The Talons are coming!"

"Dad!"

Rosie sighed. "Your brother didn't have much to tell me, except that you all were supposedly being chased by the Talons, and that you needed to get off your home terra. He also said you didn't tell him about what happened, that you didn't have time."

"Aerrow! Radarr! Get what you need and go to the garage NOW!"

"Wha-? Sora? Where have you been? What happened?"

"Too much to tell. But we need to go. We're in danger."

"Yes…it's true." Sora sighed. "I…I remember everything now..."

Rosie looked at me with sad eyes. "Dear, would you like to see Radarr and Aerrow?"

Sora starting crying. "Yes! Yes please!" She nodded her head quickly.

Rosie went out to get Radarr and Aerrow, and a few minutes later, she came back with them. She then left us to have our own reunion.

"S…Sora?" Aerrow popped his head through the door.

"Aerrow! Come here!"

"SORA!"

Aerrow ran up to the bed, and gave Sora a giant kid hug. Radarr joined the hug too.

"Sora! Sora! I thought you were going to die! I saw you lying there, and you didn't move!"

"Sora! Please be okay!"

Aerrow began crying too.

"You didn't get up for three days!"

"THREE DAYS?"

Aerrow just buried his head in between Sora's arm and side, and continued crying. She rubbed the back of his head.

Kid…I don't know what I'd do without you…

"Hey there, now…" Sora whispered. "It's all going to be alright. We're all still here, the three of us. We're going to make the best of what we can, and we need to grow as close as we can together. We're all we got left."

Aerrow looked up and nodded his head silently, tears still streaming down his face.

Sora sighed. "There's a lot of things you need to know about, Aerrow."

So she recalled what happened, and told Aerrow.

"You were still asleep when I woke up…so I went to look out a window and-…"

Sora finally told Aerrow all that had happened. In the end, all Aerrow could do was cry again. It was a lot for the kid. He was still young, and to hear such bad news was overwhelming for him.

"The last thing Dad said to me was to be a good girl, and to take care of you. And most importantly, he said he loves you."

Aerrow still cried and Radarr patted him on the back. Poor kid

"Wait…I just remembered."

Sora opened her small bag attached to her belt. The Sardonix Crystal.

"Aerrow! Aerrow look! I just remembered that Dad gave this to me before he pushed me away."

Aerrow looked up and he saw the shining blue crystal before his eyes. He breathed in awe.

"W-wow…"

"It'll remind us of our family, how close we all were, and all the good times we had," Sora whispered.

She also took out a picture.

"What's that?" Aerrow asked.

"A picture of our family," Sora replied.

The three scooted close to each other on the bed and held the picture in their hands.

Silence.

"We're gonna rebuild the Storm Hawks," Sora said.

"What?" Aerrow asked.

Rack? Radarr's ears perked up.

"We're gonna rebuild the Storm Hawks," Sora repeated. "And we're going to take down Cyclonia. For Jake. Enna. Zoram. Gunner. Mom. Dad. And Tanner."

"But…but there's only three of us!" Aerrow pointed out.

"Maybe so, but we're still going to rebuild the Storm Hawks." Sora affirmed. "Are ya with me?"

Aerrow and Radarr exchanged glances, then nodded their heads.

"We're in," Aerrow said.

The three put their hands together.

"For the Storm Hawks," Sora spoke.

"For the Storm Hawks," Aerrow repeated.

There's that for you. I'm working on the next chapter right now, so it'll probably be up soon. Stay tuned! Review if you could please and say hi or something! I'd love to hear from you!
