I was flying over the city with Ikki in front of me, Agito on my right, Kazu on my left, with Buccha and Onigiri behind us. The wind whipped my hair and for once I wasn't worried about a single thing.
---------------------
Wait! Let's throw on the brakes for a second. I should tell you who I am. My name is Chelsey aka Chels and I am the Angel. That's my riding name anyway. Okay I suppose I should just start from the beginning right? Okay. Well, the beginning is 4 months ago and doesn't start here in Japan, but rather in the US.

"Come on. Let me ride. It's not like I'm going to get hurt." I argued with my brother. He was holding my white Air Treks above my head (though currently they were cover by blue fabric). "Come on. You've never said no to me riding with you and the Ghost Hunters before." I complained, referring to my brothers AT (Air Trek) team.
"That's true, but this is a battle. You aren't coming." Quinn replied. I jumped up and tried to get my skates.
"Give me them!" I cried. "Come on." I growled and jumped at them again.
"Hey, Quinn," Henry snagged my skates from behind Quinn. "Let her come. I'll watch after her, even though I don't think she needs it." He promised. Henry walked over to me, handed me the skates, and put an arm on my shoulder.
"Fine. But if she gets hurt you take full blame." Quinn spat before he stomped out the front door.
"Thanks Henry." I said as I pulled my skates on. I traced my thumb along the sticker on the outside of my right skate (covered by the fabric) before straightening up. The sticker was a pair of white angel wings fully opened.
"Come on, Chelsey. We've got to catch up to your brother." Henry walked out the door first and I grabbed my backpack with my Angels outfit in it before following.
"Hey, race you." Henry smiled.
"You're on." I crouched to make a jumping start. "Ready." I smiled at him.
"Set." He started up his Air Trecks and I started mine.
"Go!" We shouted it together and took off flying.
---------------------
Before we get any farther along I'm going to tell you what an Air Treck skate is. Air Trecks are roller skates/blades with motor powered wheels. This means they go much faster than normal skates. Part of the Air Treck world is a thing called the Parts War. The Parts War is a set of ranks for the different teams as well as a way to compete for parts or even a team emblem. So there's a little Air Trek lesson for you. Now, to continue on with the story.
---------------------
I leaned forward as we approached the edge of the roof and sped past Henry. I bounced up onto the hip-high wall surrounding the rooftop and leapt across the gap.
My arms wanted to spread out like wings and when I'm Angel I let them, but right now I kept them down. It would be to obvious to someone like Henry that I was the Angel.
I landed easily and twisted around, skating backwards. "Beat that Henry!" I shouted at him.
"Just don't miss the landing!" He hollered back. I smiled and twisted forward as he reached me. We jumped across to the next roof together. "You're getting good." He commented.
"Thanks. You're doing pretty well yourself, Henry. But don't forget this is a race." I smiled at him before I kicked my skates into high gear and tore ahead of him. I shot across the rooftop and lept.
