Brightclaw237: Almost to the last chapter! Just a few more to go! I own nothing.
Sky: What am I following?
Brightclaw237: You'll know it.
Sky: Never mind, just start the story.
Leon and I reach a dead end. "Sky, are you sure that we are heading towards the right area?" Leon asks.
"No, my instincts are all mixed up right now." I say, looking around. My wolf-like ears flick towards a familiar sound, a sound that I haven't heard in years. My nose twitches, and my instincts tell me to hurry and find the source of the scent. The scent makes me feel all warm, happy, and…safe.
"Sky, what's going on with you?" Leon asks.
"I smell something familiar to me, but it isn't Claw. It is sometimes…no someone just as important to me." I explain, finding a secret switch. I then hit the switch with my hand, and the floor beneath us lowers.
"Something familiar, like what?" Leon asks.
"I think that it could be my mom!" I exclaim, my heart pounding against my chest.
"How could that be, Sky?!" Leon asks, shocked by my answer.
"I don't know, but there is something that I do know." I say, the elevator finally stopping.
"What would that be?" Leon asks.
"The bond between a mother and child is unbreakable." I say. "Thanks to having the DNA of a wolf inside of me, I can recognize almost any scent." I explain. "I just have to follow my instincts, and then we'll find her!" I exclaim.
"I hope that you're right." Leon says as we reach a large room.
"So you've come back, Blackraven." A familiar voice says, the voice belonging to a woman.
"No, we're wardens from Fossil Park America and Asia!" Leon shouts.
"Wait, how did you get here?!" She asks.
"Well my friend found this secret area." Leon says, we walk closer to where the voice is coming from. "What's your name, miss?" He asks.
"My name is Hikari Stryker. Who is your friend?" Hikari asks.
"Wait, you're the captain's wife?!" Leon exclaims.
"Yes, how is my husband and daughter?" Hikari asks.
"Tria and Captain Stryker are just fine." I say.
"That voice…is that really you…Sora?" Hikari asks.
"I go by the name Sky, but Sora would be the same." I say.
"How old are you?" Hikari asks me.
"I am sixteen right now, but I will turn seventeen in five days." I explain.
"It really is you then." Hikari says, her voice cracking. "You really are my daughter, Sora." She cries.
Leon and I finally find Hikari in a small cell. When we meet each other's gaze, the one missing piece of my heart has been found. I never even realized it, why Stryker had seemed so nurturing towards me. Not even he realized it, not even now. I am the daughter of Blake Kaminari(Thunder) Stryker, but I had no memory of who my parents were. The photos I had were of cousins of mine. The day I was taken away was when I was left in their care. Mom, dad, and Tria were going to the store, because my birthday was coming up. Why Stryker and Tria don't remember is beyond me, but it is clear that my mother had been very worried all these years. "Mom, stand back, I'll cut the wall down." I say.
"Sky, how are you going to do that?" Hikari asks, she then notices my ears and tail. "It seems that Blackraven's brother got to you after all." My mother sighs. "I wished that you hadn't been part of the legend, you would still be human." She explains. "You were born as part of a great legend, involving the fate of all worlds, Sky." Hikari explains. I hurry up and slash the glass with a metal claw attack, sending shards behind my mother. Her eyes widen in amazement at how accurate my skills have become. She then climbs through the large hole and embraces me in a hug. "Sky, please forgive me for not finding you?!" My mother cries.
"There's no need, because you had no way of preventing this. It was part of my destiny after all." I say. "I was chosen to save those in need, because it is how you and dad raised me." I say.
"Sky, you've been with your family this entire time, and never even realized it. That's why you've felt so confused this entire time." Leon says, smiling at my reunion with my mother.
I don't break away from the embrace of my mother, tears of joy stream down my face. "Sky, we need to leave this place now!" Hikari exclaims.
"Not without Claw, I can't leave my partner behind!" I exclaim.
My mother looks at me confused. "Who in the world is Claw?" She asks, breaking away from the embrace.
"A little vivosaur that Tria and dad rescued from Dr. Blackraven five years ago!" I exclaim. "Claw was given to me in hopes that I could save him, but Dr. Blackraven took him away!" I explain.
"Then he is indeed trying to finish the Dreadasaurus." Hikari sighs. "Sky, it is too late for that vivosaur to be saved. Too much time has passed, and it is probably completed now." She says, placing a hand on my shoulder.
"It is never too late to save a friend." I say. "I have always helped my comrades to the very end, and I will not stop until I have saved Claw!" I exclaim, running off to my buggy.
"She really does take after her father, but her power exceeds him in every other way." Hikari sighs.
"Well that's how Sky is, she can't help but be there for those in need. Her friends giving her all the strength she'll ever need." I say. "Sky would even give her life up to save someone that is close to her heart." I explain, bringing out Gale. "Sky won't leave until we return with her." I say, helping Sky's mother onto the pterasaur.
"Do you know where she's been this entire time?" Hikari asks me.
"No, why do you ask?" I say.
"You are the son of the man that assisted the scientist that took my daughter away." Hikari says, causing me to freeze.
"I was unaware of who Sky was, as well as the experiment. My father left me in a private school, to make it impossible to have friends." I explain.
"So, you aren't planning to take Sky to that horrible man?" Hikari asks.
"Not a chance, because I plan to take him down." I say. "He and my father will pay for harming Sky." I say. "Over the past few months, I've found myself falling in love with Sky." I explain. "I made a promise to not let anyone take her away, not even INTERFOL." I say.
"Has Sky told you where she's been?" Hikari asks.
"Some of the places I have heard from her, but not all of them." I say. "Sky has been on so many adventures that she has lost count." I chuckle. "I am a bit envious of Sky now, seeing how you two are reunited." I say. "I haven't seen my own mother since I was sent to that school." I sigh. "After this mission is over, I plan to search for my mother and let her know that I will be fine. As well that I will take my father down." I say.
