Chapter 10

"ARGH! Dude seriously…actually that wasn't as bad as I thought" said Finn relieved.

Everyone laughed as they went back to what they were doing.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As the day ended Piper walked out to the balcony once more to look out at the stars.

She stood there for a few minutes before hearing a noise down below.

"Aerrow… what are you doing down there?" asked Piper.

Aerrow was sitting on one of the window ledges just below the balcony.

"Hey Piper, lovely night isn't it?" Aerrow ignored her question as he looked out to the stars.

"It's beautiful…actually how did you get down there?" asked Piper trying to work out how he got there.

"Like this" Aerrow jumped up and grabbed the balcony and pulled himself up using his upper body muscles.

"Wow that is quite impr…" before Piper could finish Aerrow grabbed her by the waist and started to climb back down.

"Aerrow put me down" laughed Piper as they slowly reached Aerrow's little area.

"Fine, I will" Aerrow answered as he loosened his grip of her waist.

"Actually…you know what I'm happier you holding on to me" Piper said nervously as she spotted the gap.

Aerrow smiled as they reached the area.

"Well no one can find you down here that's for sure" Piper admitted as she looked around the area.

"Ha-ha that's why I like the spot" explained Aerrow as he sat back down.

Piper joined the Sky Knight.

They both remained silent for a few minutes before Aerrow broke the silence.

"Piper, do you remember when we first met?" asked Aerrow.

"Well of coarse how could I forget it" answered Piper

12 years ago

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aerrow sat in a dark alley on terra atmosia, alone, frightened cold.

He was only 6 years old at this stage.

As Aerrow watched the Atmosian citizens walk past he wished to be like them warm, happy but most of all to have a family.

Aerrow sank his head into his knee's and started to imagine what it would be like to be important, to be a hero where everyone loved him.

Aerrow always loved thinking up little scenarios where he would be a doctor or a blacksmith but his favorite one was to be a Sky Knight.

Suddenly Aerrow heard someone crying he lifted his head to see what was happening where he noticed 3 boys were picking on a girl who had accidently bumped into one of them.

"I said I was sorry" explained the girl.

"Sorry isn't enough, you pump into one of my crew you have to put up with the rest of us" spat one of the boys.

The girl looked around the same age as Aerrow while the boys looked about 12, 13.

The girl started crying as she was pushed to the ground.

Aerrow watched in shock as one of the boys lifted his hand to hit the girl.

Aerrow couldn't just sit there and let this poor girl get beaten up by these bullies.

He stood up and ran towards the group of boys.

One of the boys lowered his arm down to punch the girl when suddenly Aerrow appeared.

Aerrow took the punch square in the stomach.

Aerrow winded hit the ground.

"What why did you get in the way?" spat one of the boys as they lifted Aerrow by his shirt.

"Because you bullies should know not to hit a girl" exclaimed Aerrow.

The girl looked up to find her rescuer in the air.

"No don't hurt him!" screamed the girl.

"Why not? The bastard got in the way of business" exclaimed one of the boys.

The boy dropped Aerrow suddenly and quickly ran.

What had just happened? Aerrow turned around to see A Sky Knight standing behind them.

"Were these boys causing you problems?" asked the Sky Knight.

Aerrow was so amazed he didn't speak.

"Ha-ha I hope you two are alright" continued the Sky Knight.

"That was really brave of you young boy"

"It's people like you that the Sky Knights need"

The Sky Knight saluted the young Aerrow before walking off.

"Thank you" said the girl still on the ground.

Aerrow turned around to see the blue haired girl on the ground, he offered her help up.

"The names Aerrow"

"I'm Piper"

Piper brushed herself off before hugging Aerrow.

"blgh!" Aerrow thought to himself.

"Now then seeing as your safe let's find your family" Aerrow said as he slowly wiped off the hug.

"I…I…I don't have a family" piper replied.

Aerrow's eyes widened as he watched the blue haired girl starting to cry.

"Oh I'm sorry piper I didn't mean to hurt your feelings" Aerrow said trying to comfort piper.

"I…It's…It's alright you didn't mean it" piper said as she cleared a tear from her eyes.

"You know what Piper, stick with me everything will turn out alright" Aerrow said as he grabbed on to Pipers hand.

Piper looked down at their hands and smiled.

"Come on, I know where we could scab some food" Aerrow said as he ran off dragging Piper along with him.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"I made a promise that day that I would protect you till the day I die" said Aerrow.

Piper turned to Aerrow.

"Aerrow…I love you" Piper said as she leant in and kissed Aerrow.

They began passionately kissing each other.

Aerrow rolled over and became on top of Piper.

"I love you too… though this kinda ruined my present" Said Aerrow as he lifted his head.

"Alwell I've always liked early presents" Piper said as she joined her lips with his once more.
