APOLLOS' POV.
I mount Pandora, and call my Shadows back into my form.
They disappear into a flash and a tattoo of a fox, a wolf, and a tiger appears across from Pandoras' tattoo.
I smile, and bump Pandora.
She raises her wings, and the armour clinks together. I raise my white sword, and we take to the sky.
I see the school, and grip my ID.
I see the gaurds change, and my heart skips beats.
LIB!
I fly towards the school, merging with Pandora. I can do it with all my Shadows, but I can only watch. With Pandora I can help, proving how much stronger we are. Proving she isn't a shadow.
I smile. My new cloak is a metallic red, blue, black, and white.
Libby stares at me with horror.
I flash my ID. She doesn't read them, but shoots a bola at me.
I dive left with Pandora. She warbles, and I return to myslef.
I call, "LIBBY!"
She drops her crossbow. Her face is pale, and she's... crying?
I signal Pandora to land inside the school.
I leap off, and land on the wall beside her.
Luke rushes out, sword out and shield ready.
My shield is locked on my back, to keep it concealed and close.
Luke demands, "Who the F $$$ are you?"
I flash my ID in his face, and reveal my white sword.
Pandora warbles, and I hear my Shadows purr and bark.
Luke hears the Shadows, and seems concerned.
He looks for them, but can't see them.
I smile.
He asks, "Apollo?"
I nod, letting my cloak hide my sword.
Libby hugs me, and I hug her back.
A man strides up to me, obviously on gaurd duty as well.
Leathels!
I stand striaghter when Libby lets me go.
The leader walks upto me, his pack behind him.
I was slightly bothered by these dwebs?
I look down at him.
He growls, "There's a wild, armored, Mischief dragon in the courtyard, and... who is this? A spy?"
I flash my ID in his face.
I feel my Shadows getting angry so I calm them.
The man growls, "Aint good enough. Spys are swarming us. More proof, or I kill you."
I growl, "You're going to regret that."
He looks at me as if to say, "Oh yah punk?"
I smile, and my Shadows appear. Then Pandora lands behind me, causing the wall to shake.
I stand, looking down at the man.
I ask, "Proof enough, Robert?"
He glares, and screams, "Mr. Grackin!"
A thin, twig of a man scampers up to us.
The man, Mr. Grackin, asks, "Who is this young man? Why are there wild beasts on my wall?"
I reply, "These are my dragon and my Shadows. I am Apollo Farthing."
He asks, "Why uave we heard nothing of you?"
I reply, "They kicked me out, and I found a better trainer. He gave me this."
I show the sword to the twigy man, who eyes it with caution.
He demands, "Summon your trainer then, Mischief Rider!"
I call Otice, and explain the situation.
Otice appears instantly, sword drawn and dragon out.
He looks around, and quickly puts his dragon and weapon away.
Otice demands, "What's going on? My student summoned my help?"
The twig man sputters, "Otice? Otice the future mage?"
Otice looks at the man, and backs up.
Otice nods, hand on his hilt.
The man nods, and says, "Pleasure to meet you. I hate to bother you. We are swarming with spys, so we need to not let any in, yah?"
Otice nods, and disappears.
My Shadows trail behind me while we walk down to the courtyard, where Pandora is waiting.
I feel them disappear as students swarm us.
I feel the wolf, tiger, and fox curling up in the darkest corner away from the crowd.
I laugh, and keep following the twig man.
A girl rushes up to me, gold eyes shining.
She asks, "Who are you?"
I reply, reconizing Ehco, "Figure it out."
The crowd falls silent.
I stare them down, and keep walking. Pandora turns into a tattoo, and curls up with my Shadows.
