Starlight

Ch. 1 "My fate awaits"

I stay in the shadows of the trees as I follow the aircraft. Why is it going so slow now? I see a clearing up ahead. As I come to end of the forest I pause on the branch and smirk and look up at a tall metal fortress.

"So this is where you come from," I whisper as the craft enters a place towards the middle.

I hop off the branch I'm standing on and as my foot hits the side of the building, I kick my self higher. At a quick pace I scale the side of the building and go through the gate before it fully closes.

I look around and see I'm in a big room with about 20 of those aircrafts.

I make sure my hood is secure over my face as I hear footsteps.
"Who the Hell is this guy?" I hear a man ask angrily.

I turn and see a group of men, about forty or so.

"Trainees!" one shouts,"stay in the back! Someone get him!"

A man pulls out a black stick. I watch him curiously as he flings it to the side and it extends to a long staff with electricity coming off the ends.

Oh! Pretty weapon!

He charges, swinging it at me. I slide under it and grab it as I do. I stand up and twirl it before quickly hitting him in the gut with a end of it. He collapses to the ground, then I turn back to the others.

"Don't just stand there!" the one, who I now assume is the leader, growls,"Get him!"

Ten more extend their staffs and circle me. I see that the staffs differ in what comes out of the end. Some with electricity, some with fire, and some with water.

"H-how is Ezra's staff still producing Static?" I hear someone in the crowd ask.

I grin as I spin the staff and the 'Static' flares up. Static, eh?

The ten men charge me and I twirl around, spinning my staff, blocking my attacks. I flip it behind my head blocking a attack. I then swing it in front of me, knocking two of them flying back.

I quickly spin to my right and slash out the staff, shooting out water to block the flames coming towards me. I let a small shock of Static flow with the water and it collides with the source of the flames.

I turn and block two attacks. I continue blocking attacks from the remaining seven guards as my cloak flows perfectly around me.

Time to turn it up a notch!

I smirk and flip the staff to three oncoming attacks. Then flipping backwards over two other guard's, I land behind them and quickly knock them out. I run and put the end of the staff on the ground, leaping up into the air I kick another one in the face.

More guards join in as the leader starts shouting,"Kill Her! Avenge your falling comrades!"

They surround me, one smirks and runs towards me swinging his staff down at my head. I jump into the air, landing on his staff I use it to flip behind them.

I land in a crouching position with the staff extended out towards them.

"S-stop!" a voices shouts,"You need to stop attacking!"

"He killed the others and you want us to stop?" the leader shouts back,"what so he can kill us all?"

"They aren't dead!" the New voice shouts,"L-look!"

I sit there and watch the men in front of me as they look around and begin whispering, as I listen.
That voice sounds like... No. It can't be.

"S-she wasn't armed and they attacked her first!"

"Dammit Draven get your ass back here!" the leader shouts.
