Kidea: So now you met all the characters…well almost all of them. The last of our characters won't appear until…I'm not sure when.

CHAPTER 3

Her clothes ripped away from her as she plunged into darkness. A large jewelled egg formed around the unconcious form as she plummeted towards the Earth. Her brown hair lost all bounce and flow and the shine in her eyes grew faint. Her wings faded till they were nothing but transparent shapes. The Earth loomed ever closer.

Haku focused on a cloud that looked like a dragonhead. As he watched the cloud suddenly wisped away as a purple light shot through it. Haku sat up in shock. He turned around to tell everyone but noticed they were all sitting up as well staring at the purple sparkle in the sky as it plummeted towards Earth and them.

"What is it?" Tsuku wondered out loud.

"I have no unearthly idea." Shinji remarked sarcastically. The truth was none of them knew what this sparkling light was.

"Uh is it just me or is that thing headed straight for us at a great rate of knots?" Kaji stated shifting towards his bike. Everyone gave a look of horror and grabbed their bikes and sped down the hill. They stopped at the foot of the hill and the sparkle grew larger. Everyone ducked as the thing sped over the top of the hill and crashed into the run down shack, where they gang hung out when it was hot, and made a huge crater exactly where the shack once stood. Everyone hopped back on their bikes and rode back up to the top of the hill. The other side was no longer green like it once was but ash grey and black.

"Holy shit!" Kaji gasped in awe.

"Language," Shinji snapped, "you are in the presence of my brother!"

"It's not like I haven't heard it before." Haku stated.

"It might just be me but that huge crater was created by a huge sparkle that just fell from the sky, so maybe we should do something." Everyone but Shinji jumped cause it was rare for Rei to speak to the whole group.

"I vote we get the hell outta here." Was Tsuku's idea as she scooted behind Kaji.

"No, I think we should check out what this thing is." Rei said starting to walk down the hill towards the crater.

"Wait for me Rei!" Shinji called running after her.

"We should follow them or he's gonna get them both killed." Kaji said following after them with Haku, leaving Tsuku alone on the hill.

"Guys," She whined looking around, "mmm wait up!" she galloped after Kaji, clinging to him when she reached him.

Rei and Shinji stood on the edge of the crater staring at the centre. Most of the crater was black but the centre glowed an eerie purple colour. Haku looked at it and felt drawn towards it. He started to walk towards this bright light; all sounds seemed to fade off into the background. He reached the centre and knelt down beside the light, it faded to a dull shad of purple and he gasped. It wasn't just a shiny light, but a crystal egg of some kind! With a human inside!
