Zalina flew west just above the tops of the trees on her AirJet. Her eyes scanned the storm-ridden horizon for any signs of extremely dangerous weather. She brought her AirJet to a hover, and straddled the seat. A distant strike of lightning connected with the ground. After a few seconds, the thunder rumbled. The air was being sucked towards the dark clouds. It felt as if the storm was taking a deep breath before the plunge. Zalina's ears flattened against her head as she realized the weather was coming her way. Determined to warn the others, she flew back towards Shadow's Abyss.

Tetsuo heared the storm and stayed under his tree, practicing upside-down shooting. He chuckled as he shot down a falling leaf he picked as a target.

Ades beat his wings backwards as he landed beneath the tree where Tetsuo was hanging. "Storm's coming," he warned. "The wind is doing strange things." He pushed his flight goggles up on his forehead, causing his spiky bangs to stick out even more.

Tetsuo chuckled, "I know, I can hear it." His ears twitched and he swung off of the tree, landing on his back with a thud. "be careful when you flip off of trees, what the rocks to to your butt (pardon my foul tounge) hurts!"

Ades bit his lip to keep from giggling and instead offered a paw to help the other bat up. "I'd suggest trying it from higher up next time. If you're too close to the ground you can't finish the flip in time."

Tetsuo reached out his wing and burst into a fit of laughter, "thanks!"
when should I tell them that I'm a human gone wrong? he kept thinking to himself, as he sniped leaves from several angles

Ades pulled Tetsuo upright, smiling. "Want to fly back with me? This storm feels like a drencher."

"Sure." Tetsuo slung his rifle on his back and took to the skies, "I'll tell him now, I should at least." Tetsuo covered his snout, knowing he said too much.

Ades crouched and leapt up after Tetsuo, feeling pleased to be flying back with someone. His wings flapped hard to catch up with the other. "Tell who what?" he asked as he slowed to a glide, wondering what Tetsuo was saying.

Tetsuo sighed, "it's a secret that I never hoped I'd tell, can you keep a secret?" he slowed down so Ades could catch up, and, um... because he got caught on a branch.

Ades flapped in place while he waited for Tetsuo to disentangle himself. A secret? Ades wouldn't let himself hope what he thought Tetsuo's secret was. "I can, I swear."

Tetsuo sighed, "I used to be human" he looked at Ades with a look of 'I'm sorry' in his eyes.

Ades was so surprised he didn't have time to be disappointed that this was not the confession he'd been hoping for. In fact, he was so surprised he dropped several feet before catching himself. Wings grabbing at the air, he pulled himself back up. "You what?" he asked, large brown eyes looking even larger. After a moment more of staring, he shook his head. "A human..." Concern filled his eyes. "What happened to you?"

"it's a long story, when I was 5, I got pulled off the streets into this lab with lots of lights, the next thing I know was the world going dark and then I went crazy! I turned out lucky, one of 'em turned into a human killer!"

Ades reached out and put his black paw on Tetsuo's upper arm in sympathy. "That's awful, I'm so sorry. I'm glad you're still okay." He let his paw slowly drift back to his side. "At least you've got a home, right? I mean, you're not seen as a freak here."
