The music on the side is my inspiration for this chapter, for the giant. Also, it will go good with something to do with Percy.  Enjoy!

"Wh-What? Do you really mean it?!" Noellen asks. "I would be glad to have you as a friend, right Aaron?" I ask  Aaron. He silently nods. "See?" I tell Noellen. "Then I will gladly accept. I will put Tina in charge of the vampires while I'm gone." He told me. "Tine? Isn't- Wait, she's a vampire?!" I exclaim.

Noellen nods his head like it's no big deal. "She's the second strongest, although she is only 15. Her parent's died when I found her, but I'm 100% sure she can manage by herself." He says."We need to go." Aaron interrupts. "Oh! Okay. Where are we going now?" I ask. "Louienard." He answers, I can hear the dissatisfaction in his voice. I grab Noellen's hand and Aaron's hand and tell them to shake on it.

"I know you two have a dislike for each other. But, I'd like this to go well. Don't mess it up, for me." I ask them. They're hesitant but in the end, they shake on it.

Aaron said that we'd go on foot to Louienard, I didn't ask why, but the sudden change was surprising. All my travels so far with Aaron, had involved with leaping and flying.

It took longer on foot to Louienard than it would have if we had leaped from tree to tree. But during the four days to the borders, I learned quiet a lot, especially about me, something I didn't know much about.

"Hey, hey. Noellen how old are you?" I catch up to him. "19." He answered. "How about you Aaron?" I called out to him, he was farther ahead than me and Noellen. "19!" He called back, not looking back.

Aaron stopped short ahead, sniffing the air, perking his ears up, then, he leaped into the forest. "Hey! Wait up Aaron! What's the matter?!"I called out, getting no answers back. Noellen wrinkles his nose, at the smell of something, I obviously don't smell anything.

"A giant? What's it doing all the way out here?" Noellen informed. "A giant?" Confused. "Come on, let's go after Aaron." He grabs my hand and runs into the forest.

As we got closer to the source of stench, I could almost smell it too now. It was pungent, horrid, as if a million gooses migrated here and decided to drop deadly bombs. But we hurried on, after Aaron.

We found Aaron sparring with a giant. The giant was 2 bodies higher than Aaron, garbage green skin and humongous eyes. It smelled recklessly and limitless like an elephant's butt. I almost gagged but stopped myself. Aaron was having a hard time defeating this thing. He was even breaking a sweat. Back at the battle when he was fighting Connor, he didn't break one sweat, now he was.

"Aaron!" I called his name. He struck the giant but barely missed. The giant threw a punch and hit Aaron. Aaron flew into the tree, clearly hurt. The giant had a club, making everything more advantageous for him. "Aaron!" I called again, ready to run to his side. But Noellen held me back, and shook his head.

The giant struck with his club at Aaron, still against the tree, trying to recover. Aaron dodged it, and took a swing with his sword. He managed to hit the giant, but it was only a small gash in the giant's arm. I was scared for Aaron now.

The giant got a good hit on Aaron again, this time, hurling him against a rock. I heard some cracking noise, hoping it wasn't Aaron's bones. The giant had Aaron cornered now, nowhere to run. Again and again, the giant either bammed Aaron with his club or pounded him with multiple punches. My stomach started feeling queasy.

"Aaron!" I yelled out his name, encouraging him to get up, put he never did. The giant pounded Aaron harder than the next. This was it, I had had enough.

Energy surged around me, firery red, crimson, scarlet, ruby. I saw Noellen from the corner of my eye, his eyes were widened, like he was shocked, not scared.

Next, energy entered my body, every part of my body, raw, slimy, heart beating, all surged with energy, refreshing. My hair was enlightened by the firing energy around me, not burning but glowing.

For my final transformation, I leaped in the air, arms spread apart, like you were going to hug somebody, face tilted upwards, facing the sky, feet, one rose higher than the other, like a ballerina taking a graceful leap, than, something extended from my back.

Hot, wild, scarletty crimson red, my fire wings extended, as big and as long as the giant's size and length. Feathery red, came my tail, feathery, glowing fiery red. My eyes, felt immensely hot, glowing an orange and red color.

From within my chest, came a growl. I let it out. "CAWW~!" It got the giant's attention.  "RAWR!" The giant roared back at me. It did not sound a speck as loud as mine had.

Then, I walked forward, graceful, elegant. Fire and sparks emanating from me, ready to strike at any moments notice. I looked at Aaron, seeing that he was also watching. I walked closer to the giant, he did not back away. He stood his ground as I.

Then, the giant swung his club at me. But I was fast, I felt like a feather. I did a backwards flip in slow motion. "Fool! How dare you think you can hit me! You shall regret soon enough!" My voice bellowed out, strong and female like. I did not know if that was me speaking or my inner thoughts speaking on it's own.

The giant looked taken aback. I took this chance to attack it. Out of nowhere, I grab the air beside me, illuminating a sword, stunningly beautiful with fire spitting out of it. I striked the giant on his head once, making him disappear without notice.

My sword dispersed from my hand, my wings folded back into my back, my tail rolling itself up and disappearing, my energy fading away, me, feeling weak and more tired than before. But I did not stop there to rest, I raced to Aaron's side.

By the time Noellen had come running to Aaron's side, he had already  fallen asleep. "His ribs are cracked. I can mend them, but he won't be moving anytime soon, too much for now." Noellen informed me, while pressing his hands against  Aaron's rib cage.

If there were a time to fall down, now would be a great time. I blacked out, falling backwards. Last thing I remembered was Noellen calling my name after he had caught me just before I hit the ground.

~Dream?~

I opened my eyes, revealing pitch black darkness. "Hello?" I called out to the darkness. Then something emerged from a black spew of fog. "Ahh~! I was able to connect with you." It was a man. Pitch black hair, darker than the surrounding, and deep red piercing eyes.He was shirtless, with a tattoo up and down the right side of his chest and stomach, including his whole right arm. He had humongous dark black wings and two black straight curved horns on his head. "Who- Who are you? This is a dream isn't it?" I stammered.

"No, this is not a dream, it's a mind link. I am your friend's master. Satan, The Devil, which ever one you prefer. I don't care, as long as it is those only those two names." Satan or The Devil chuckled. "Friend's master? Who? Which one? Noellen...Or  Aaron?" I started getting uneasy.

He stood there, making a big impact then said " Aaron...."
