He was thrown into a dark cave like place, his head was hammering so hard. And his eyes were just starting to adjust. As torch looked around he saw both dusty and fox. They were ok but scared. As his eyes adjusted more he saw a lot more ravens, crows, rooks, and many other birds. They were also hostages like them. He could tell that they were not eating as healthy as they should be. There was some that were young but looked in such bad shape. Some were such at a bad shape that he was more then sure that they would die. He turned his gaze one way then another. There seemed to be fifty in total. Enough to make a good team. Enough to have a battle. Enough to set free. Enough to make a family. Enough to make two families. See as how many died there was probably really enough to make three families. That must mean that over thousands of different families of birds were attacked. This meant that the ravens and crows were not the only ones who felt the destruction of the black blood ravens. He he saw a owl walk right up to him.
"not every day a owl asks a raven for help. But I am now, you seem to be the most newest one to our crew, you and those other two. And you are ravens, know a lot about the black blood ravens, and must know how to build a cage like this"
"yes I am a raven and yes I know the ways of raven buildings but the black blood ravens have a total different ways. Why do you want to know this?"
"Because raven I am more then sure I speak for every bird when I say I want to get out of here. That I cannot wait to die in here, or be killed from those likes of creatures. Yes I may be taller then them, and may be stronger then most ravens, crows, and all of your other kinds but they have ways that can kill a bear warrior with only one of their kind. They have ways. We need to get out"
a little sparrow came up behind him. Even though sparrows are not big they are excellent flyers and their tactics of flying is to tire the enemy out, with all of there loops, dodging trees, and the ability to never stop.
"We all want to get out, we may be small but together we can fight. Pleas help us get out"
"Owl, sparrow. We will try. But first I must know whom I am talking to. Your names?"
a blue jay walked up, the same with a magpie, a rook, a falcon, and a robin.
The sparrow talked first
"my name is none other then speeds. I am the fastest one in my flock."
"and mine is bardy, for I am bard owl"
"and my name is cerulean, for I am blue"
"and my name is two tone, for I have two tones"
"and my name is dark, for I am like you"
" I am carnage, for that is what I leave"
"and my name is willow, for that is were I live"
"now your name ravens and crow"
"my name is torch, for I have the power of fire sight"
"my name is fox because I attacked one when I was young"
"my name is dusty because I get dusty a lot"
the greeting ended, now they learned the names of all of the birds that represented a species,. The day was done. And torch when away to think. To think about what happened. To think about why clarity tried do not find them. To think how amyth was. oh how his beautiful amyth was scared him to death. What if she….non no she could not be. He had to get out. He had to go see his friends again. Torch was planning the escape in his head.
"Torch?"
Turning around he cried in surprise. There she was, there his amyth was. Or at least her soul was there. She was like a purple light, but you could still se her shape, and her purple eyes. She was beautiful more then ever and at the same time he knew what happened. She was gone from this world.
Oh my amyth, what happened. He tried with all his might to speak but could not let out one single word.
"Torch, I lost my heart before I went away. I knew you were taken from me. I lost my heart because I knew I would die and you were not there with me. I don't blame you though."
Taking a big gulp of his spit he allowed a few words to slipp through.
"amyth….. oh amyth I love you"
"I know torch. Torch listen to me, clarity is going to come save you but not right now, she does not have enough strength yet and she has to figure something out, she has to learn something. Torch you wil not die from this, you will grow up and find someone else to love. You will be loved back. She will have as much puire in her heart as clarity will. You will find someone else."
She wa starting to disappear.
"and torch remember………"
"remember what. Amyth remember what………….."
"torch………i……..love………you"
then she was gone.
