Ok the next chapter is taking longer then I first thought! But it is coming! I'm just having a bit of trouble with how to write the scene on the Condor the best way.
I've gotten some great reviews and some of you have pointed out that the Dark Ace and Master Cyclonis are OOC (out of character for those who don't know). I wanted to take this moment to explain the reason behind this.
I believe that what we see of the Dark Ace and Master Cyclonis is not their true inner-selves! The biggest character that no one but the creators knows how she feels is Master Cyclonis.
We all know that Cyclonis is insane and evil, but I don't believe that this how she truly feels. As Piper pointed out, in Best Friends Forever, Cyclonis is a lonely girl who desperately wants a friend and hides that by being cruel and "act tough" in an effort to protect herself from it.
The Dark Ace, like his master, is a cruel person to those who get in his way and whenever we think of him we never truly see him as a dedicated love partner, and least of all a husband or father. But like Cyclonis, I believe that he acts this way to protect himself. If you love something then someone can use it against you. Now maybe that's not the true reason behind it but still. The Dark Ace is a guy and human and his nature as thus dictates that he has needs, both for companionship and… let's not go to the other need _.
Also whenever someone writes a story, the main characters take a small bit of those around them. I've tried to prevent doing this with the characters of The Storm Hawks, but it leaked a little _. However I will do my best to stop my life dictating what the original characters from the show. But mainly what you see of the Dark Ace and Cyclonis in my story when they're alone around Skylar is what I believe is how they wish they could be. Ace as any other man with very really feeling and needs and Cyclonis as a girl just wanting to be understood and have someone to confide all of her fears and hopes in a best girl friend. With Skylar they found they can do that because Skylar doesn't act like others do. Skylar would tell anyone exactly what she thinks even if it meant she would pay for it later. (See chapter 4 for an example)
So I hope I cleared up some things and hopefully I can get chapter 15 done soon. With luck I'll have it done within 3 days. Keep reading and reviewing! Let me know what you think of my theories as well!
Till chapter 15!
