Sar/Gifted's gifted 2.0

[Sparrow]

"Raven? That explains a bit." I pause,
"Kat? I remember you now."
I think a moment and it dawns on me.
"Awww man..."
I glance around,
"I really hope Kenny isn't here then..."

[Raven]

Kitty shook her head thoroughly. "No, Kitty." She smiled happily. "Kat is my twin sister. Though... I haven't seen her around."
(( Note that this Kat is really just a schizophrenic vision. Kitty's real name is Kiki, Kat's was Kiadra, 13's was Beatrice. ))

[FoxTrott]

"I haven't seen her around, either," mused 13, glancing around the area. I kept the truth to myself, but I was still wondering who this person was.

"Are youuuu..." I glanced sideways at them. "... Rachel?"

[Sparrow]

"Ah I see. Sorry. I fail at names. If one of my cop creations are here he still won't have a name because I keep forgetting it..."
I pause when addressed by the wrong name,
"Who me? No, sorry I'm not."

[Doom]

Planes. I've never trusted planes. I thought as I plummeted toward the Earth, the flaming biplane I'd so foolishly decided to take for a spin now falling to pieces before my eyes. I turned to fall into a dive, but when I looked to the ground, my heart nearly stopped. My ultimate trifecta of fear: heights, high speeds, and a rather comical death. I was going to be pancaked at fourteen years old, all because I insisted on doing something crazy.

My thoughts turned to my friends, family, and how I'd never write alongside the members of TSE again. Why I thought of that was beyond me, but all the same I blacked out with a hint of bliss in my frantic last thoughts.

However, I didn't meet my end. Rather, I awoke to find myself still falling, yet day had become night, and desert had been replaced by forest. Now more curious than frightened, I tried to analyze my surroundings before I hit the canopy. A rather massive wood that stretched for miles in all directions. I glanced back down at the treetops, then curled up and braced for impact. Yet, I halted with a gut wrenching jerk just before I impacted the canopy. Puzzled, I looked around to find myself floating, suspended in midair. I struggled to put myself upright, and eventually was able to put myself in a sitting position that felt a little more natural. Then I felt myself being lowered, levitating to the floor of the forest without so much as brushing a branch. As I landed, I found a rather strange pair of characters that I was both surprised and glad to see. One, garbed in a rather elegant violet robe, bowed as I approached, too stunned to say anything. From what I could tell, he was a blind man, with a rather expensive looking seeing cane.
The other, who was far more impish and far less graceful than the blind man, appeared to carry a limp body over his shoulder. I couldn't quite place who that was, but I was still stunned that I'd actually met two figments of my imagination.
Still in shock, I said, "It can't be......Fix? Dreamcaster?"
The blind man nodded, and replied through thought, "You are correct. I assume you'd like to know what's going on here?"
I shook my head, grinning brightly. "I could care less where I am or why I'm here. I finally get to do something exciting!"
Fix grinned his maniac grin in response to mine, saying, "It's good to hear that! There is much fun to be had! Come along, come along!"
The two turned and began to walk away, and I drew back in horror when I saw the limp body which Fix carried over his shoulder. The boy's skin was cracked and bleeding, but not because of battle wounds. These wounds were inflicted by ice.....which could only mean....
"Barnaby? Why is he here?" I asked the two as I cautiously followed behind.
"Oh, no need to worry. The child is asleep. He will not harm you, as he so wished." Fix promptly answered.
With a gulp, I said nothing more. These two were on my side for whatever reason, and so long as Dreamcaster was here, I had no reason to fear Fix. Yet, I couldn't help but wonder if anyone or anything else I had created poorly was here, wishing vengeance on me.

[Gifted]

I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't see anything bad about it. Him in my head I could get used to. There was just one thing. "And can I sever this contract at any time?"

[Raven]

There had been plenty of times when she had challenged herself to run as fast and as long as she could, but every time she had given up when it started to get difficult. She was fairly fit, generally speaking. Even without training, she was naturally stronger and faster, she supposed it was the animal in her, out of her even now. Leopards may not belong in this kind of forest, but it was the first animal she could think of that could outdistance a human as well as keep going. Cheetahs just lacked the stamina required.
But even as an animal, she was running short of breath, she was starting to grow clumsy with her feet. She knew she wouldn't make it much longer. How was she still being chased?

[FoxTrott]

"Alright, then, um..." I scratched the back of my head. "What's your name...?"

[Sar]

"If you are willing to make the sacrifice to go back, the transition is rather uncomfortable, but yes, you can always go back," He kept his arm extended, waiting for her move.

[Gifted]

"Sacrafice?" I narrowed my eyes.

[Sar]

"Takes my hand and you will understand everything."

[Sparrow]

I knew better then to answer with my name. At least until I was sure this was the real Fox.
"....Tell me yours first..."

[FoxTrott]

I glanced back to my guardian and her fictional sibling. 13 looked back at me. I turned to the stranger and said, "Fox."

13 promptly facepalmed.

[Sparrow]

I sigh relieved that this wasn't a Jinx like I thought.
"Thank goodness. It can be risky on Gilese to give names, so I wasn't sure it was you." I pause and look to her with a smile.
"If I had a cookie, I'd hand it to you. It's me, Sparrow."

[Gifted]

"I'm not entering a contract without knowing all the details." I snapped, not caring if I offended him.
