Dimensions Apart: Chapter 11
Snowboarding
Snow, snow, and more snow…isn't there anything here other then snow? Shadow wondered as she walked through the icy village of Ko-Koro. May as well go snowboarding…got nothing better to do…
Shadow walked into her hut, and grabbed her beloved snowboard. Then, using her dragon-like wings, she started flying to the top of Mount. Ihu. In a few minutes, she was at the top of the mountain.
Hmm… pretty nice view from up here… she thought as she gazed at the island from the peak of the mountain.
"What are you doing here?" Kopaka's icy voice asked.
Shadow turned to see the ice Toa's cold gaze looking down on her. Even though most people would be intimidated by his stare, Shadow was unfazed by it. She'd been stared at her whole life, so one person's gaze would never be able to intimidate her. Though, she would get this uncomfortable feeling when she was around him. She usually ignored the feeling though.
"What are you doing here?" Shadow asked, her voice holding the same icy quality.
"None of your business." he said simply.
"Then I don't have to tell either."
Suddenly, they heard the sound of two low growls. Behind Kopaka, were two large Muakas. Shadow chose this time to turn into her dragon form. If Kopaka was shocked by Shadow's odd transformation, he didn't show it. He merely watched as her nose and mouth turned into a dragon's snout, her hair change into a silver mane, and her feet and hands turn into clawed paws. She unwrapped, her tail from around her waist, and revealed the dagger like point at the end. The Muakas backed away slightly, obviously disturbed by Shadow's transformation. One of the cats decided to try its luck at fighting Shadow, and leapt at her. Shadow took a deep breath, and blew white-hot flames at the cat. Feeling the burning pain on its skin, the muaka ran as quickly as it could away from the inferno. The other, seeing its ally's failure, took off in the other direction.
"Not bad…" Kopaka said his voice still icy.
Shadow morphed back into her half-form, wrapping her tail back around her waist. Then she picked up her snowboard, and headed toward the spot that looked best for boarding.
"Hmm…" Kopaka said suddenly. "It seems we both came up here for the same reason…"
Shadow looked over her shoulder, and saw Kopaka attaching his blades to his feet, creating some type of skates. For the first time in awhile, Shadow smiled.
"Yeah… I guess so…"
