Author's note: Hi everyone, this is Tigre. This is my first story to ever be published, so please be nice if you comment. Remember anything in parentheses & italicized, ex:(Tigre Note: Look up "The Hanging Tree" on You Tube) means that in order to get the full feeling of a scene, you must open up another tab & look up whatever it says in the I own: All my OCs & plot idea (since it's based after Jak and Daxter The Lost Frontier) Stuff I don't own: Any & all Jak & Daxter, & Spyro character/references. So here we go.
Unknown P.O.V.
"Love," my mother called from the living room of our house," come here please!" "What does she want?" I think to myself as I thunder down the old rotting stairs that lead from the top floor, me & my double step uncle the only ones who could use the upstairs room without having to worry about falling through the floor. "Yes, mom?" I say once I catch sight of her, her black scales glistening in the sparse light coming in from the living room's only window. "It is time for your turn to go Metalhead hunting you know, right? " she said, her green eyes glittering with annoyance & grinning with playful mockery at how I had forgotten, again. "Oh, sorry mom, I was watching the birds that had roosted outside my window," I reply quickly & truly. "Uh huh," my mother says, her playful smile now spreading across her arrow-head shaped face to her eyes.
"Mom, I'm telling you the truth, I showed the nest to you yesterday!" I say, a little annoyed. "Cynder, stop teasing your daughter," I hear my step-dad call from a different room in our crumbling house. "Aw, Spyro, must you always ruin my fun?" she says back, her smile now in her voice. "You know mom, Spyro has a point when he says that its hard to tell what your true emotion is from your face sometimes, I confused that smile of yours for a grimace," I say with a smile on my face now, too. "Well, shouldn't you have known from the scent?" my mother says smiling, " And I know Spyro isn't your true father, but would it kill you to call him 'dad' once in a while?It hurts his heart that you don't even call him that" she says, the smile falling off her face. "Sorry, it's just... it's just... never mind. What was it that you wanted?" I say, trying to figure out a way to say 'Well, because he isn't my dad' without disappointing my mother,sounding like a little girl, and sounding like a spoiled brat, which I'm not.
"I just wanted you to go outside & do something, you've been sitting in your room all day" she says, a half-smile on her lips "explore or something, just go outside." "Can I go into the city?!" I ask excitedly, since I barely get to go into the city. "Meldalvyna," she starts, "you know you aren't allowed in the city unless we need you to go get building supplies for our house. And unless you want to go in to get a job where you never have to show your face to the humans, then I suggest you go right ahead" she finishes, trying to convince me not to go. "Mom, the last time you went into the city was twenty-two years ago, & the last time I had to go get supplies, the city had changed from what it was in your & Spy- I mean dad's, description. The closest to a K.G I've seen in the city would be a Freedom League officer" I complain. " Meldalvyna, you cannot go into Haven City, and I don't care at how much it has changed, you will not go into that city without my permission!" my mother yells, making her point. "Fine I won't go into the city," I say quietly, defeated.
I walk outside, trying to decide what to do now that I'm outdoors. "Well, it's too cold to swim, I can't draw or paint since my stuff is in the house,...hmph" I think to myself. Suddenly it hits me, cliff-diving! I take off into the air, heading towards my favorite cliff in Haven City Forest. I land on my hind legs, run to the edge of the the cliff, & leap into the air out into the air. As I plummet, I close my eyes, feeling the air rushing through my braided red & blue hair, one of the traits from my human father, may he, whoever he was, rest in peace. I open my eyes, & bring my concentration back to my fall, here comes the hard part. I rocket through the tree branches, avoiding the thick, sturdy ones. Just before I come face to face with the ground, I level out, arcing gracefully back into a flight instead of a fall.
I fly towards my favorite resting branch to let the adrenaline rush slow down. I land on the trunk of the tree, digging my serrated claws into the bark of the tree. A second after I land, I hear human footsteps creeping through the forest. I crawl up onto the branch as fast as possible, not paying attention to the smaller branches on the tree. I reach my branch, start to lay down, then SNAP!, a thicker twig sticking off the side of the branch breaks under my foot. I hear the foot steps stop, then after a few seconds they start up again slower than before, & closer to the cliff side than before, but still heading my way. I use my shadow ability, an elemental power I got from my mother, to blend in with the shadows. A few seconds later, I see a human man with short blonde hair with lime green roots emerge from the forest. He looks up at the branch I'm in, & stares confusedly at me with his ocean blue eyes. As he stares, besides the pounding in my ear holes, I take notice that he is wearing a blue Freedom League uniform. The man shakes his head, & passes the underneath me. I give off a sigh of relief, then immediately regret it. The sigh had come out as a rather loud growl. Out of surprise, I let my shadow ability slip, & the man is now staring at me with a face of surprise & horror. My eyes go to slits as I realize I have been spotted. I think to myself "Oh crap, might as well scare him away. Too bad, he's kinda cute, oh well."
Author's note: Hey everyone, what do you think of the story now that I have added in my OC Meldalvyna (pronounced mel-dal-vee-na)? Tell me what you think, or if you have any questions, I will answer them. In case you were wondering about Meldalyna, she is a hybrid between the humans (Jak, Torn, Kiera, etc.) & the dragons (Cynder, Spyro, etc.), & how she came to be (you know what I mean) will be mentioned later (maybe, but more than likely it will). So, if you have any ideas for the story, or want further descriptions of characters or scenes, etc., leave them in the reviews, & I will try to get to you. Well, until next time, Tigre out!
Publisher's Note: So far I've been trapped underground for a while now and I knew that the two of them would raid my place. Right now I have good news and bad news for everyone, I'm slowly getting over my writers block somehow thanks to that hit to the head. It was also thanks to that hit on the head that I started to have strange dreams of a lab somewhere with strange people that have strange powers. I know it's fake though, but it does give me a good idea for a matrix type of story or something else like Underworld: Awakening. But before I start it I will finish what I have in the works which include about three different stories and the one's I have yet to finish on my page. Until then I will stay in this bunker listening to the strange creatures that burrow around outside it trying to get to me. They seem like they had a problem with light though so for now I am safe and hopefully the three foot thick wall of pure titanium will hold. Until next time, I will have to finish writing what I have and make sure to keep watch for my next update on any of my stories that's not this one. For remember someone else is writing this story and updates come whenever they are ready... good... night
Mysterious note: Until the subject is ready get every bit of information you can on them and scan everything that they have written. We need to make sure that he doesn't revile anything that we are planning... turn that thing *BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!*
