Me: Yay! I got the reviews fast this time! Thanks MageofMusic and Denotic for reviewing, once again! J A special thanks to Denotic for your side note!!!
Finn: What was the side note?
Me: I showed it to you.
Finn: No you didn't.
Me: Whatever.
Finn: You…!
Me: Disclaimer! I'm not getting into this with you!
Finn: Apparently you are because you just started…
Me: DISCLAIMER FINN!
Finn: *grumbles* Number1stormhawksfan doesn't own Storm Hawks, but she does own Chassidy, Louis, Cam, and Cypriote.
Me: Enjoy the chapter!
There hadn't been much happening since Cam had been killed. Piper had been studying, and I'd been depressed. The team tried to cheer me up. Aerrow and Junko did a pretty good job. Finn actually got a laugh out of me, and he wasn't even trying. Radarr made me laugh and he was trying. He did a little dance routine. Stork made my depression worse. Piper just gave me someone to talk to, and anytime she figured something out, I was the first person that she told. I was actually thankful to have met them. Even Finn. Hey, even when he wasn't trying, he still made me laugh.
Ways that Finn makes me laugh; he constantly daydreams about girls or cheerleaders, he's extremely clumsy; he can be stupid, he's gullible, he's fun to pull pranks on, and many other things.
Ways that Radarr made me laugh; his dance routine and comedy routine. For a sky monkey thing, he's funny. Aerrow and Junko mainly tried to make me laugh by doing things that would make them laugh. Their humor and my humor are two totally different galaxies. They did make fun of the Dark Ace and Master Cyclonis sometimes, which usually did end up being funny. Especially when Junko was Master Cyclonis and Aerrow was the dark Ace, who says, "Master, you have really let go!" That never fails to make me die laughing.
I was starting to feel better, but that would only last until I saw Cypriote again. Then, I'd fall back into my depressed abyss and have to start all over. I wish that I could use my body and touch things to entertain myself. The only thing that could entertain me was listening to whatever music was playing, usually Finn's guitar, or talking to someone.
After having a few hours to think, I found a lead. The article that I'd read yesterday before we got to the temple. "You guys!" I exclaimed.
"What?" Everyone asked together.
"I read this article yesterday before we got to the temple and I completely forgot about it!" I told them.
"Way to go. Would've been nice to know this earlier." Finn muttered.
"Sorry, but I kind of had more to think about than what I'd been doing before I got to the temple. Like, maybe what happened in the temple." I shot.
"What did the article say?" Piper asked.
"It said that Cypriote is the goddess of extreme evil and is the one goddess that the Cyclonians believed in. Thousands of years ago, she banded with the Cyclonians and they nearly took over the Atmos together. The first squadron, the Rex Guardians, stopped Cypriote, but only two survived the battle. One of the survivors died soon after that from injuries, but the other traveled on and gained immortality, using the power that he had gained from defeating Cypriote. He still lives on Terra Rex now. He has retired now, but maybe he could give us some tips to defeat her. He was old when he gained immortality." I explained.
"You sound like Piper." Finn said.
"You're saying that I sound smart? Thank you!" I chirped, not letting him get to me.
"If this Rex Guardian is still alive, then we should find him and get tips, just like you said. Stork, set a course for Terra Rex." Aerrow said.
"Got it!" Stork called. The ship flew toward the south.
The Dark Ace growled angrily as he reached the quadrants that he'd been told would be where the Condor was. He looked around. The Condor was nowhere to be found. How was he supposed to get the girl if they didn't even know where she was? He turned around and set back toward Cyclonia.
"So where does this Rex Guardian live?" Aerrow asked me.
"His name is Harrier Johnson, and he lives in the main building of Terra Rex, under guard." I said.
"Wait. Harrier? I thought you said he was retired." Finn said.
"He is… Oh, not that Harrier. Not the sky knight. He was named after Harrier Johnson." I explained.
"That's good because if it was that Harrier, I wasn't even gonna come with you. I was gonna stay with Stork." Finn said. The door to the Condor slammed shut.
"Not happening." Stork said through a speaker from the inside of the ship. Finn rolled his eyes and started to follow us to the main building of Terra Rex.
The Dark Ace entered Cyclonia. He made his way to the throne room, where he would find Master Cyclonis and Cypriote. "Back so soon, Dark Ace? And empty handed as well." Master Cyclonis said coldly.
"The Storm Hawks were not in the quadrants that I was given." The Dark Ace explained.
"To leave in such a hurry must mean that they've found a lead of how to stop me." Cypriote said.
"They have Piper. I'm sure she read every book she owned and figured out somehow." Master Cyclonis supplied.
"No. It was the girl who figured out. I'm sure of it. Once they lose her, they will be lost." Cypriote said.
"Where is the girl then?" The Dark Ace asked in a respectful tone, though he was getting impatient.
"She would be on Terra Rex, seeking Harrier Johnson's help. He was the only being to ever defeat me." Cypriote said, her voice full of scorn for this Harrier Johnson.
"Dark Ace, go to Terra Rex, and maybe you can retrieve the girl before she gets a chance to get advice from this Johnson character." Master Cyclonis said.
"Yes, Master." The Dark Ace said, putting his hand to his chest and bowing before walking away with that sexy walk of his. (Oh my Gawd! I can't believe I put that! Oh well, it had to be said! Lmfao!)
Guards stopped us as we were about to enter. "What business do you have here?" A guard asked.
"We need to see Mr. Johnson. It's an emergency." Aerrow explained.
"No one sees Mr. Johnson unless he's invited them." The other guard said.
"Please! We really need to see him! He may be the only one who can help our friend and her sister and we don't have long! The Atmos is in danger!" Piper exclaimed.
"What's all this about the Atmos being in danger?" An older, wheezier, voice asked from inside. He peeked out past the guards and looked straight at me. "Ah, a spirit! Let them in, let them in!" The man exclaimed. The guards moved aside, confused. We entered the building. "We can talk in my room. Would you like some tea?" The man asked. He was speaking directly to me. I looked back at the Storm Hawks. They shook their heads to say that they didn't wanted any.
"Uh… No, thank you." I said politely.
"Of course. Spirits don't drink tea. Come along then." We began to walk after the old man, who walked surprisingly fast for such a small man. "So, spirit, what is your name?" He asked,
"Chassidy." I replied. "Are you Mr. Johnson?"
"That would be me. Who are your friends?"
"This is Aerrow, Piper, Finn, Junko, and Radarr." I introduced them, floating to them one by one.
"We're the Storm Hawks." Aerrow added.
"Yes, yes. I've heard of you." Mr. Johnson said,
"Chicka-cha." Finn said, imitating guns with his fingers, his signature move.
We entered Mr. Johnson's room. "I suppose that the reason you're spirit is that Cypriote tried to take your body and you got away." He said. I nodded. "But yet you're still saying that the Atmos is in danger. How is that?"
"Well, after I got away, Master Cyclonis and the Dark Ace, the Cyclonians that are helping Cypriote, went back and took my sister, Camilla. Cypriote… killed… Cam and took over her body and now she's after me because I can leave my body willingly." I explained.
"Ah. I suppose you were hoping that I could help you by giving you tips on how to defeat Cypriote?" Mr. Johnson asked.
"Well, yes, sir. The Atmos is depending on it." I said. Mr. Johnson just nodded. The Storm Hawks didn't talk. They could see that Mr. Johnson intended this conversation to be mine. They were just an audience. "Can you help us, Mr. Johnson?" I asked.
"I'm afraid, Chassidy, that I cannot help you." Mr. Johnson said.
"Why not?' I asked, shocked.
"Those who seek you are here for you."
