Chapter 1: The bird, and base

When I a woke I felt a breath of air on my face. Thinking it was a competitor I jumped to my feet as fast I could. Looking around, seeing no one I slowly lowered my defense and turned. Only to be greeted by the friendly face of my companion, Dark shade. The little blue and black lizard was defiantly pleased to see me awake. I lowered my arm so that shade could fly up on to it. Instead the raven like creature flew and landed on her favorite spot to rest, my head. I looked around to inspect the damage I did, and to see if Aqua boy was still around. He wasn't. The building lie in ruins "Well, looks like I did a number on that building Shade." I joked smirking to my self. With a twitch of my tail began to walk out of the pile of rubble and back towards my base on Coral street.

As I walked through the streets of Taitle every thing was quiet. The only thing I could hear was the faint sounds of the wind, and far off explosions from other battles. As I turned on to Coral street that is when I heard another noise. It was the sound of bird wings beating in the air behind me. Dark Shade must have heard the bird too because I felt her take off towards the sound of the bird. I turned to see shade flying at almost top speed towards a black raven with blood red eyes. I knew immediately that this bird had to belong to another competitor, so I allowed shade to attack the bird. While I looked around to find something to store it in so I could bring it back to my base. I found a small wooden crate to put the raven in. After I had grabbed the crate I looked up to see Dark Shade and the raven dancing in the sky, it was a spectacular sight. I watched for a few moments until I realized that I had to go back to the base so I could find my friend, Krissy. I whistled to call Dark Shade, she quickly finished off the bird and brought it to me. It still struggled in my grasp, fortunately I had the crate. I placed the raven into it and, grabbed the crate with my tail. Now with my new prize I wanted to get back to my base faster. Shade knew I wanted to go so she flew a head of me as I flexed my own black and brown feather wings an glided down the street. Then all I heard was the flapping of wings from me and shade. Strangely the only thing I heard from the raven was one word : "Karl"
