Peter Malone: Full POV Collection

The First Fight

~Peter's Pov~

A hawk sat on the tree branch next to me and looked over. I looked back at him and saw my reflection in his eyes. The Hawk huh? Peter the Hawk, I liked it. The bird stretched out his wings and flew away. Then loud noises started to come and I woke up from my dream. I could hear people yelling outside my door. It swung open and Sky flew in. "Peter hurry grab your bow! The guards are coming close to our hide out looking for us!" She shouted then ran back outside. I got up fast and grabbed my bow. Guards! What do they expect me to do?! I ran outside to see everyone running around and grabbing weapons. Sadie was in the middle of the clearing yelling to everyone, "grab your weapons people this is not a drill!" She was shouting. I was startled by someone grabbing my arm. I looked to see who it was. The man had green hair and orange eyes. I had never seen him before. "Hey I'm James, your Peter right?" James asked me. I nodded my head. "Come with me." He said and started to run off to the entrance of the camp. I ran following behind him. We left the camp and started running through the forest. He climbed up a tree and I followed him. "They should be arriving here shortly." He said and stopped to sit on a tree branch. I sat next to him and looked down. "We are the first patrol, whoever gets past us Dante, Felony and Aidan will take care of." James told me. So we were the first patrol? Well I hope we do good. "So what do you want me to do?" I asked pulling out my bow. James chuckled, "point your bow over there and get the ones I miss." He said pointing to the area the guards would keep moving on. "What if they retreat?" I asked. "Peter believe me not all of them will retreat." He smiled and pulled out a sword. Oh wow he planned on just going down there and taking them on in plain day light? James smiled as we heard footsteps and guards started to appear. "Ready?" He asked me with a smile. "Ya." I replied, I was ready. I pulled back my bow and put an arrow in. I was kinda shocked when James pulled out a smoke bomb. Ha he was smarter then I thought. "Be on the look out for the rouges." One of the guards said. So they expected us to be out here waiting for them? James seemed jumpy waiting to throw done his smoke bomb. Finally the guards were beneath us and James threw down the smoke bomb and it went off. "Rouges! Hurry men!" A guard yelled. James jumped down with his sword ready to strike. I heard yelling from below. I couldn't see anything though. I kept watching waiting for a guard to escape the smoke. Guards started to rush out and I shot my bow at one. I hit him and he feel to the ground. I reloaded as quickly as I could and hit more, but some escaped. The guards stopped coming out of the smoke and it started to fade. I looked down and saw James, sword in hand, standing in the middle, dead guards surrounding him. He was still in fight position like he expected more guards to come. Was he always on look out like this? I guess living in the forest made him more cautious of his surroundings. Minutes passed and he finally put his sword away. He walked over the bodies and climbed back up the tree. He sat next to me and swung his feet over the edge of the branch. "Nice work Peter, you got a few." He told me smiling. "Ya sorry I missed some." I apologized. "No don't be sorry you did great! The next patrol can take them." He smiled at me. "Thanks." I smiled back. "Should we head back to camp now?" James asked me. I put my bow away, "ya sounds good." I told him and we both hopped down. We walked down the path a while and James started singing, "we are the champions my friend and we'll keep on fighting til the end!" I looked at him as we kept walking. He should not sing in public I thought to myself. "Shut up James you suck at singing!" I heard a voice yell from above. I looked up and saw Felony and Aidan sitting on a tree branch. I then noticed the bodies in front of us on the path. Felony and Aidan jumped down and Dante jumped down on the other side of the path. He ran over to me and started hugging me. "Peter are you okay did you get hurt?" He started asking. "Get off of me!" I yelled trying to get away from him. "Dante let go of the kid he's fine." Aidan said. "How do you know Aidan?" Dante asked and Aidan smiled. I looked down and saw a charred body on the ground, "what happened to him?" I asked the group. Aidan chuckled and I looked at him. "He never saw it coming." Aidan smiled and pulled out a flame thrower. "Aidan's a little pyro." Felony told me. She had a wound on her arm, she must have been hit. "Felony what happened there?" James asked her, he must have seen her wound too. "That idiot over there shot me!" She yelled pointing at Dante. "I said I was sorry!" He yelled back, "I did tell you to look out though." He said in defense. "It's not my fault your trigger happy." She snapped back at him. "Okay you two lets not fight lets just get back to camp," James told them, "seriously you guys act like five year olds." He added in annoyance and started walking down the path. Dante and Felony followed him pushing each other. "Coming Peter?" Aidan asked waiting for me. "Ya." I said and starting walking with him. "So did you guys miss any?" I asked him. "Just one, the boss will take care of him." He smiled. The boss was going to come out into the forest? I wish I could have scene that fight. We kept walking for a while down the path until it ended and Aidan and I caught up with the others. We walked through the bushes until we reached the clearing which lead to the entrance of the hide out. There in front of the doors stood the boss. The boss was wearing a black cape like always and holding a scythe, almost looked like the grim reaper. There in front of the boss on the ground laid the one guard who had gotten away. Dante was starring at the boss, "yup sorry boss next time we will leave you more." Dante said and the boss turned away and vanished into the hide out. Next time we will leave you more? Isn't the boss happy we almost killed them all? "Wow Aidan way to go I told you to leave at least five for the boss!" Felony yelled. "Well sorry I thought I left more then one!" He yelled back at her. They continued to argue while Dante quietly slipped away back into the forest. No one else seemed to notice though. "Well I'm gonna go find Talia see you later." James said with a smile and dashed off in search of the beautiful blue haired girl. "Just forget about we will leave more next time." Felony finally said to Aidan. "Okay." Aidan smiled at her. I felt a little pull on the back of my shirt. I turned around and looked down. A little boy, at least I think it was a boy, with long purple hair was looking up at me. "Hi sir I'm Wyatt." He said. "Oh hi I'm Peter." I told the famine looking little boy. "The wolf, well Dex, told me to bring you to the hair, nails, piercings and tattoo tree." The little boy grinned. What kind of tree was that?! "Ummmm." I said, I didn't really want to go. "Come on!" He said happily and grabbed my arm pulling me into the hide out. He dragged me across the clearing into a tree, I assumed it was the hair, nails, piercings and tattoo tree and I was not looking forward to this. He brought me in and pushed me onto a chair. Wolf spun around on the chair next to me holding a needle gun. Wyatt set a book on my lap, "this is the tattoo book, everyone's tattoos are in it." Wyatt explained to me cheerfully, he seemed really excited I was about to get a needle in my skin, should I be concerned? He flipped open the book to a page. The page had a skeleton, rib cage and up. On the left side it had an angel wing and on the right was a demon wing. It had a halo and a creepy look on its face, it scared me. "This is Racine's tattoo, it's on the front of her left rib cage." Wyatt said the flipped the page. There was a skull with a strange design behind it and two red roses. "This is Sky's, it's on the back of her neck." Wolf told me then he flipped the page. I looked at the page and instead of a human skull there was a wolf's skull. I looked at Wolf, he must have taken off his shirt when I wasn't looking, he had the tattoo right in the middle of his chest. Wyatt giggled, "that's Dex's tattoo." Was it just me or was this kid to into this? I flipped the page, I recognized this one, it was a skull with aces under it and purple flowers going up and down. Then from side to side there was a pretty white design. "This is Felony's right?" I asked. Wolf nodded his head and Wyatt said, "yup sure is, located at the lower left of her stomach." I flipped the page to see another familiar tattoo, it was a skull with two twin guns behind it. "That's Dante's, it's on his upper right chest." Wyatt said then flipped the page. How big was this book? "I love this one, its Usagi's, it's on her left thigh." Wyatt said of the skull with cross bones and a bow on its head, yup for sure it was cute little Usagi's. the next one was even scarier then Racine's, it was a creepy looking skull with no lower jawbone surrounded by flames. Wow I can't believe these tattoos got creepier. "This is Aidan's, it's on his upper left chest." Wyatt said then flipped the page once more. Maybe Aidan was scarier then I thought. Wyatt mood changed to extremely happy at the next one. He lifted up his right sleeve to revel a tattoo of a skull in a Viking helmet on his bicep. "Cool huh? It makes me look really tough!" He said excitedly and Wolf smiled. Wyatt's mood changed when he flipped to the next page. On the page was a creepy skull with white light in its eyes and shadows surrounding it, to think I thought Aidan's was creepy. "This one is Talia's." Wyatt said, he seemed a little on edge like Talia would jump out any second and kill him. "Dex where is it?" Wyatt asked Wolf, wow Wyatt actually didn't know everything. "It's on her full back." Wolf said, he didn't seem frightened by talking about Talia. Right when I thought she couldn't get any creepier, she did. I flipped the page and another familiar tattoo was there, I just never noticed how creepy it was. It was a scary skull with an Indian headdress on, Sadie's. "That's Sadie's tattoo on her right bicep, she used to be a bit more wild back in the day." Wolf told me, I can tell. Wyatt flipped the page and got excited again, "this is Jason's tattoo, it's a skull with a crown, it's on his upper right chest." Wow he really was a mini Dante, I don't know if I should be scared or not. Wyatt turned the page, "this is Tyson's, it's on his right side." Well he is creepy, it was a picture of a skull with wings made out of guns and knifes, should I be afraid of him? I turned the page quickly, finally something normal. It was a skull and cross bones with a red star behind it. "That's Ashton's, it's on her left side." The next one was actually pretty simple, it was a skull with vines on it with thorns. "That's Ivy's, it's on her lower back." Well didn't expect Ivy to have the most normal one. I flipped the page, it was a skull but instead of cross bones it had swords in its place. "This one is James', it's on his upper back." Wyatt flipped the page and it was blank. "This is where yours will go!" He said excitedly, how could he be excited about this?! "What do you want and where do you want it?" Wolf asked me, well I knew this moment was coming. "Do I have to get one?" I hesitantly asked, Wyatt nodded his head. "Um I guess a skull with feathered wings on the center of my back." I finally decided. I took of my shirt and couldn't help but feel intimidated by Wolf. He was so muscular and I was, well a scrawny guy. I laid on my stomach and Wolf began my tattoo, I have to admit I felt a bit uncomfortable with him being shirtless. Oh gosh I hope he knows what he's doing. "Do you want any other tattoos? James has other tattoos too." Wyatt asked me, why on earth would I want more?! I don't even want this one! "Nope I'm good." I told him. Wolf finished and showed me in the mirror, great it was a scary skull with no lower jaw and wings, permanently on my body, fantastic. "I have to go." Wolf said before walking out the door. Wyatt was smiling at me, man am I really sure he is a boy? Wyatt looks so much like a girl. "Um Wyatt you are a boy right?" I asked Wyatt, his faced turned cold. "Yes, I am a boy." He said coldly. He turned his back to me and walked out of the room without another word. I put my knee up, put my elbow on my knee and put my head into my hand. When will I ever fit in? Will I ever even fit in here?
