Zodiac Legends

ALTO

The yellow and white tinted jet fighter hovered softly in the channels just outside planet CR11. The channels were not too busy with a few Cancer patrol officers flying past and a few citizens of CR11 heading towards GI10, As that was where Cancers got their income from.

Paid to work for Gemini, Alto of course Hated Gemini, thought they were disgusting, he believed they're just using Cancer to do the dirty work so Aries doesn't kill Gemini off. Alto currently lay in his driver's seat in this Yellow and white tinted jet fighter, he lay back sort of dazed off yet not quite asleep. His fawn hair fell over his pale face, his eyes closed but moving were a colour of deep brown, he usually camped outside of his planet before his shift started so he didn't have to wait in the rush hour traffic that exited CR11 each day.

Alto opened his eyes, and stretched his arms forgetting he was in a small aircraft space, he wacked his hand on the metal roof. "Ah for god sakes" he said annoyed. Then once he sat up properly he started the engine up, and merged into the lanes of the channels towards GI10, of course he hated working there but he had no choice since he had no other way of gaining money. It was either this, or hand yourself over to Aries, or you could of course become a traitor of your own kind and go join another zodiac, although you'd never really truly fit in. Alto considered this a long time ago, but thought he'd better not, he didn't want to let his Zodiac down.

Alto flew into hyperspace as he followed the chain of yellow and white jet crafts signifying the Cancer colours. He looked out his window and saw some Gemini fly past in their purple and white wings, he rolled his eyes and tapped his stereo on, Seven nation army by the white stripes started playing. He smiled, and sang along a bit to the music. It took him an hour and a half to finally get into the gates of GI10, "hello sir, how are you?" a Gemini officer asked Alto at the gates, connecting a voice Acceser to his ship.

"I'm fine, not that you actually care mate, just let me in" Alto responded annoyed having to speak to the Gemini creature. "Very well, ID?" he said, And Alto smacked a yellow and white paper slip against the window "this good enough?" he said, slightly amused. "Ah yes sir. Fly on through '' he finally said, releasing the voice Acceser and allowing Alto to fly through.

He landed in a field of grass, opening the door and breathing in the air, he pushed the pointy blades of grass out of the way as he went to his trunk of the ship. Opening it, he saw his uniform, which he couldn't really be bothered to put on, so he decided to leave it. He looked around and saw a forest ahead, "suppose I could start there." He said to himself, closing the trunk and the door, then walking through the grass towards the forest.

Alto stepped up to the sturdy wooden bridge that overlooked a small stream. He softly brushed his fawn hair out of his face, His deep brown eyes glistening in the sun as it beamed down at him. The bridge itself was surrounded by lush green leaves and vines which covered abandoned stone ruins, and on the other side of the bridge stood a girl.

Her deeply blue coloured hair fell over her shoulders, she turned to look at Alto, to reveal her ice blue eyes. She looked frightened, Alto took a small step towards her. He put his hands up slowly showing he was no threat.

Alto wore a dark shirt, and deep blue jeans along with a dark green jacket. The girl appeared to be wearing dark jeans and a black singlet followed by a Blue denim jacket that sat upon her shoulders.

The girl looked at him, taking his appearance in. Her right hand beside her waistline prepared to fight if necessary. He took a step closer, She flinched.

"I won't hurt you," Alto said, his eyes filled with truth. "Then leave'' the girl said. Her hands seemed to be shaking. "You're hurt," Alto said, noticing her neck was bleeding. She placed her left hand up to her neck, touching the wound and wincing with pain. "Let me help you, please," Alto said, taking another step. She pulled her knife out and then stood in a fighting stance. Alto stood his ground, he was not just gonna leave this girl for dead. The girl brought her hand back from her neck and looked at it. Her hand was covered with blood, her face filled with fear, and her wrists continued shaking. "please." Alto said once again softly.

The girl looked up at him with astonishment and fear, then suddenly the knife fell from her grip clashing on the wooden bridge, she stumbled forwards a bit before falling to the ground, Alto immediately ran to her catching her only inches from her head hitting the ground, She lifted her unconscious body up slowly, his arms around her protectively, "It's gonna be okay, I've got you" he softly said before walking across the bridge towards the meadow where he left his jet..

Alto carried the unconscious girl towards his yellow and white jet fighter, pushing blades of grass past them.

He used one hand and opened the passenger door hatch and then gently placed her inside putting a seat-belt on around her. Then closing the door he turned and saw another jet flying towards them in the distance. "Gemini" He said in disgust, seeing the purple and white wings. He got in the Jet, driver side and started the engine. He looked at the girl, her face had gone paler and the wound looked worse, "let's get you some help" Alto said taking off and looking grimly at the Gemini species as they passed by, they seemed too busy to notice however. Alto shrugged and then flew over the forest where the bridge sat, alto saw the girl's knife still lay on the planks, "shit" he said Attempting to land but then thinking better of it and realised getting the girl help and safety first is more important.

He flew towards the sky, past the clouds the sun still glistening on the horizon, "See you later fucking Gemini" Alto said Leaving the planet's atmosphere and into orbit. A couple patrolling Gemini officers in jet crafts zoomed past his ship attempting to push him away from their planet. "Jesus I know we are at war, but calm down!" Alto said accelerating on the engine and entering hyperspace towards CR11 Section.
