Jaiden ran out of the bushes and was tripped down by a rock and slammed onto the glassy soil.

Jaiden got up and dusted off the dirt. She then saw the same bird who guided her and she looked up to the sky. It is about to be daytime.

"Go" the voice replied.

Jaiden walked up the steps on what seemed to be a huge ancient temple with two symbols carved onto the large entrance door.

"This is the place where the Henlocks gathered to worship me" The voice replied.

Jaiden climbed up the last step and walked up to the large entrance door.

When she made it to the gate entrance, a stone pedestal lifted up in a stiff mechanical way. The same bird then landed on the stone pedestal and squawked at Jaiden while tapping its feet onto a cylinder hole.

"Put the pen into the hole" The voice replied.

Jaiden took out her pen sword and put it into the hole which fit perfectly. A purple glow then emitted from the pen then flashed onto the temple gate which ignited the two symbols and the gate opened and revealed a long hallway leading to a giant bird's nest on a massive pedestal.

Jaiden walked down the hallway glancing at the ancient paintings on the wall. "My people settled onto the eastern coast in order to be free. Revlon's forces attacked the island. He order the temple to be burnt, but I stood my ground with the rest of my people and killed him for good" The voice echoed throughout the temple.

Jaiden then stopped by and glanced at the painting of two birds one who looks to be an owl and one who looks to be an eagle.

"The Eagle is Revlon" The voice echoed.

Jaiden nodded and walked up to the massive pedestal.

Suddenly a loud owl howling echoed in the distance. Jaiden looked up incuriously as she senses the wind coming from above.

Then a massive white owl with multiple magentas, blue glowing spots around its body, and eerie antennas around the head, landed on the nest looking at Jaiden.

Jaiden was in shock she was about to run away until she realizes that the gates have been closed and she looks back at the owl that stands 20 meters staring down at her.

Jaiden took multiple deep breaths as she tried to calm herself down.

The owl howled loudly that Jaiden covered her ears, closed her eyes, and felt wind forcefully rushing right at her with dirt and all kinds of debris.

The owl stopped and then walked up close to Jaiden as the feathers engulfed her.

Jaiden rushed out of the feathers and turned her head and smiled.

The owl then lowered its head onto Jaiden, Jaiden touched the owl's beak and wind came out of the owl's nose.

"Well you scared me for a moment, I thought you might eat me?" Jaiden joked.

The owl then lifted its head and pointed its head at the gate entrance.

"You want me to get it?" Jaiden asked.

"Yes, get the sword we have to fight" The voice replied.

"Wait the owl is you right?" Jaiden asked.

"Yes, now we don't have much time" The voice replied.

Jaiden then ran towards the gate as it opened up. Jaiden took out the pen and swang it and the blade came out. She ran back towards the owl.

"War is coming, Revlon is closing in," Katan said.

The owl lowered itself allowing Jaiden to climb up and mount it.

The owl then lifted itself up and let out a loud screech that echoed across the woods.

"Hold on tight" The voice replied. Jaiden held onto the Owl's feathers and the Owl took off to the skies as Jaiden gripped on tight resisting the winds.

The Owl landed on a mountain top.

"Jaiden," The Voice asserted.

Jaiden opened her eyes and was relieved, "Thank god, I almost passed out" Jaiden then stood up and climbed down the Owl.

"You can get some rest, my instincts will kick in once Revlon makes landfall," Katan replied,

"Good to know, and can you make the flight, less intimating," Jaiden asked.

"I can't, in a fight, I must react quick" The voice replied.

"Oh. Oh Ok, That's fine, I could withstand being dragged at such a high speed that I will puke" Jaiden said sarcastically.

"No sarcasm," The voice demanded.

"Ok, I guess I will sleep" Jaiden lay down on the glassy surface and covered her belly with her jacket. The Owl kept itself on high alert and waited.
