As the airship took off Matt felt a bit more at ease. He was slowly conquering his fear of heights little by little. Suddenly he was standing at the edge at a window looking down. He looked at his hands that weren't shaking anymore.
"Woah....that was totally easy! I am cured! Woohoo!!"
He looked back at Aran and smiled. He then walked over to where Takeshi was.
"Hey...hows life treating ya?"
He punched him lightly on the shoulder as a greeting. He figured if anyone here needed friends...it was Takeshi. His role model was outside transforming horses into dragons like some kind of deranged maniac. I mean the kid has had a hard life you know? He just had to be easy on the guy.

Tira continued to look back at Gai with indifference. He could not be trusted no matter what he said to try and redeem himself. She would not allow Gai to come near Karunii. Gai had broken his word within a few seconds by threatening her--although in her view it was more like annoying her--right after he made a noble speech about not tolerating any sort of threatening. She would not be surprised if Gai would come back in covered in the blood of a newborn babe.
I should have sought my own transportation there.
Her irritation grew as another person sat down besides her, telling her to control her anger. She was always in control of her anger for she had to wield it to her use. Anger was one of the darker emotions, and she was darkness.
"If by control, you mean don't show it...then I choose when to control it or not. But if you control by acknowledging it and not letting it take over you, then I am in perfect control."
Tira surprised herself a little by responding. She choose to stay quiet for the rest of the journey unless Karunii wanted something. It was best to not talk. Silence. One of the memories of her past began to replay before her eyes.
The castle was quiet. Tira had never known the castle to be this quiet before. Alarms and cries had always echoed around her because of the war. She floated down the coridoors. The silence was so great that the beating of her wings echoed in despair off the walls. She made her way towards the nearest window, and she found the reason why the only sound was silence.
Dead bodies littered every inch of ground there was. The smell of blood rose to her nose, yet she was used to this. All were dead. None had survived. No...there was one survivor that had just rose up. His wings were all ripped up and it was obvious that he was in pain. A bow and arrow lay propped up against the wall next to her. Without a doubt in her mind, Tira picked it up and aimed. The arrow screamed through the silence as she let it fly. It buried itself into his back. And then silence fell once again.
The realm was dead now. She was the lone survivor of the war. In the end, nobody had won and the purpose was lost. Tira went to gather her roll of wire that would never end as her soul weapon. Then she took flight in search for a new world.

((I'd like to take a moment to point out the fact that YOU ARE NOT YOUR CHARACTER. Rachel isn't actually an evil dark fairy thing. The evil dark fairy thing hates your character, not Rachel (well she might, who knows? )))

James stood to leave but paused for a second.
"Choose wisely in the future." He walked onto the lift and proceeded to the outer deck. When the lift reached it's destination, James was immediately greeted by the wind whipping around him and through his hair. He stepped off the lift and it hissed back to the lower deck. James proceeded to the opposite side of the aircraft and peered over the side. He pulled in a long breath of fresh air...

Boku, sencing a second presence, jumped up and threw his trench coat hiding his wings again. He hoped that this man had not seen them. He appeared not to so boku stood up like nothing had happended, and looked at the other man, it was James.
[glow=red,2,300]"Hey uh james, im sorry about earlier, i was just watching out for Rayan, ya know?"[/glow]
Boku looked down feeling ashamed. He did that a lot now here on Fyia he never used to but now here he was different.

((WHOA!!! This thread has a sexuality?! How in the world did that happen? Does this mean that it can reproduce and have baby threads? Well, I guess not, if it's homosexual, though I don't really know how the fertilization process occurs in threads. For that matter, I had no idea that the threads even had genders. Wow . . . care to explain this all to me, Boku?))

[Gen you're such a riot! ha ha ha...] Rayan smirked confidently as he pulled back the lever further, causing the airship’s speed to increase all the more. There were few things he enjoyed more than flying, either in his airship or in his fighter. Rayan sighed contentedly as he gently guided his craft over the waves of the desert sand below. But after only a few moments of peace, some new problem had broken out again in the other part of the cabin. Rayan shook his head and wondered, What am I going to do with them? “Hey, keep it down back there. I’m trying to concentrate on piloting this thing” he said as he listened to Tira and Gai’s conflict. “Anyway, we’re almost 5 cliks north of Dathomir now. You can get your fighter now” Rayan said, referring to James. Karunii meanwhile was sitting somewhat uncomfortably in his seat while looking at the floor. His mind was filled with troubled thoughts. ‘Unsafe?’ But…Mr. Gai hasn’t done anything wrong to me… and… he has a good heart… but what will Tira think if I consider him my friend? She isn’t in a good mood right now at all. Maybe I can do something to cheer her up, so that way she won’t feel so contemptuous towards everybody. I don’t want fights…why can’t everybody learn to love and care for each other? What good comes from fighting and bickering? I only want peace in the world, so that everybody can live happily. Why does no one else seem to desire that, even though it would be what is best? I don’t understand… Karunii looked trustingly at Tira, hoping that no matter what, that she would still be his friend, despite her feelings. But was that even possible? She had told him that she was “born of the dark.” What did that mean? Could it relate to the nightmare Karunii had the last night he was in Sparka? Karunii shivered slightly as those dreaded words returned to him… ======= “Stay back, Karunii. I don’t need you.” “…T…Tira?” “I said I don’t need you. You and I are very different, Karunii; Too different. We cannot be together. I swore to myself that I would never let my emotions turn weak. I have no need for a friend.” “No! Tira, don’t leave me! … TIRAAAAAAAAAA!!!” ======= “T…Tira…” Karunii breathed out. He was now shaking more than before; he could hardly control his movements. Karunii felt tormented by those fearful words…the prospect of Tira forsaking him had not even come to mind before. But what if she would indeed leave him? No…Tira was not like that, he told himself. He could not think anything less of her but the best. I…I trust you, Tira… I still trust you.Karunii was interrupted by Rayan shouting, “Okay…Now five cliks north of Dathomir!” Rayan slowly lowered the airship to allow James to get his fighter. After James got out, Rayan fired up the engines again, and directed his course towards the Icy Mountains to the west. The bright sunlight glimmered off of their snow-covered mountaintops in the distance. Rayan’s airship got up to speed again, and flew hastily towards Mt. Corvitan, their fated destination. {Continued at ‘Shurnon Attacks’ in Icy Mountains; fyia.proboards22.com/index.cgi?board=talk&action=display&thread=1085186967 }

"Completely understandable, friend." James turned back towards Boku and smiled. "By the way...your secret's safe withy me." The ship came to a slow halt and lowered to the sands, allowing James to get off for his fighter...he did this by leaping off of the side and landing a few yards away from the beautiful piece of machinery.
"Excellent." James pulled the camoflage net off of his fighter and smiled at it's shiny gleem. He flicked off a few small desert creatures as he walked along it and to the cockpit. He keyed the entry code and the canopy opened up. James grabbed the lip off the entryway and vaulted over, plopping down onto the leather seat inside. He keyed the same code to make the canopy close and pressurize upon command.
"Should get there in no time..." He punched a few keys on the nav console and a course was planned for the Corvitan mountains. He punched the ignition and the engines hummed to life, after the ready lights glowed green he brought the repulsorlifts online and hovered to roughly 1000 feet and shut them off. He then pushed the throttle forward and screamed after the airship at nearly mach 3...
