The sun was burning brighter than ever, his powerful and glorious rays, lighting up most of the shore, leaving little to no shace on the almost empty beach , the waves danced around an unexpected object who had been stranded and afloat for hours, the smooth, serene waves, gently laid the foreign object on the bright, pale gold sand.
Leonard struggled to get up, his head was hurting a lot, a narrow, almost unoticeable string of blood streamed down from his head to his neck and lower back, most of the wound had already coagulated but was still pretty sensitive.
Leon looked around nervously only to realize he was still stuck in a cage, Leo tried to peck through the bars but to no avail, as soon as his slightly cracked beak started to hurt, Leonard decided it was best to settle down for a moment and ponder about his options, peck the bars by yourself won't do any good, but perhaps if someone could spread them a bit further? Or even break that little shiny trinket that somehow cemented the plain, steely door, separating you from your freedom, maybe a rock could crack the odd trinket. Lion mentalized his options and came to the conclusion that he would need another bird's help to execute said plans, a bit disappointed with this outcome, Leonard tried to envision more possibilities, but to no avail.
Leo released a tired sigh, still feeling a bit disappointed for the lack of options and very reluctant about his choices, he decided to call out for help, Lion screeched with a certain degree of hesitance in his voice "Is anyone there?"

Ever since Papaya had left her brother and went out into the wild, she had seen so many new and exciting things. For a half a second she was kind of happy that Iron had forced her into her miserable life, but then she remembered her mother's dead body rotting in the rain in the nest where her children had abandoned her and her mate had gone mental. She hated herself for the half of a second. Then, she stopped hating herself because she didn't like it when people didn't have self determination and didn't belive in themselfs.
The small crow let the breeze ruffel her feathers as she flew strongly into the wind giving her poor wings quite the workout. She took a moment to appreciate the beautiful reef below her and and the gorgeous a d exotic looking colors of the coral below the surface of the water. Her life seemed to leave her as she just relaxed for the first time since she, Tarot, and Peach had ran away from Iron.
Of course, Papaya was taking a fly around the sea for fun, but she was seriously considering settling down here permently. Wowww, its SOO cool here. Papaya thought, as she had never been to the reef before. I'm the king of the reef, well queen anyway, and my brother and I will rule the reef. Then, another pair of siblings... Named Caroli and his sister Mary will come and fall in live with us, we will live in a casle on the outside of the reef, and we'll live happily ever after. The end. she told herself. She was having a great time.
Papaya was indeed enjoying herself a great deal. There were many things to think about and in a place like this, so much time to think. Any time she thought to hardly sbout something though, her thoughts turned to her family and things just went downhill from there. Avoiding her problems, Papaya thought about lighter things, her future, the handsome prince she knew that she would someday meet, her happily ever after. Soon, much time had been passed, and she could see a figure in the distance, not of a bird, but of a shape, the shape of something large, but not completely standing up.
Soon, Papaya laid eyes on the shipwreck. It was tall and laid out. Papaya could tell that whatever tradgedy had caused its falling out had to have been pretty skilled. There was no evidence as to what ir was doing their exactly, or how it had gotten their in the first place. Papaya knew she would spend quite a time wondering about it later in whem she left, so she decided to refrain from putting to much thought into it for the time being. What a mess Papaya though. She tilted her head a beautiful mess, but a mess none the less. she thought. Papaya wasn't the most observant bird in the world, and didn't see or aknowledge the bird in a cage below her until it cried out.
Suddenly, Papaya heard a small noise "Is anyone there" She flew towards the noise and saw a bird stuck in a cage. She saw herself stuck back in the rest, Iron beating her up. Her vision came back. She looked at the bird with a cocked neck "Hi!! I'm Papaya how are you, I guess your not at your best as your stuck in that cage. Are you okay? Do you need help? Whats your name?" Papaya said

Leonard silently observed as the night-feathered bird flew around, her rather small wings seemingly tired as she observed the view, deep down, Leo was feeling slightly jealous of being so careless and free as the little crow, as he noticed the coal-colored bird approach him, Leo crudely groomed his crown and chest, fluttering his tail, in an attempt to make himself presentable and hide the thin red streams who would still sting his head from time to time, he was feeling rather nervous, he had never met another bird before, or at least, he couldn't remember it. He sighed as the warm breeze gently caressed his night-colored crown.
Lion shaped up his wings as the crow spoke, she had so many questions, but he had almost no answers, with a deep breath, Leonard responded on a low and somewhat shy tone "Uhm, Oi?...I...I Think my name is Leonard but, I don't really remember much, but... Papaya is a rather nice name!" Lion looked around and noticed an oddly pointy rock in the sand, Leo lifted one of his talons and pointed at it "Would you mind to help me? See that rock over there, I want you to grab it, hover as high as you can and drop it."
(Oi = Hi) ((By the way, it's really nice to have new player on Awake the stars ^>^ Welcome to starless islet!))

Papaya let out a happy caw as the bird told her that his name was Leonard. Leonard, I apsolutely love that name. What a catchy ring. Leonard. Hmm, a bit old fashioned but in a nice way. the opinionated bird thought. When he complimented her name, well, half-way as he seemed rushed to get on to other topics, mabey the fact that he was in a cage, she smiled.
Papaya listened to his directions. The rock he pointed at was rather large, and looked sharp and pointy. Papaya could see where he was going with this. She would grab it, fly upwards, and drop it, hopefully denting the cage. She nodded and replied with "Ok! Oh by the way, you might want to stand to the side of the cage, or as far to the edge as possible. I'v found it hard to make friends after I'v smashed open their heads."
The chatty female could have babbled on for a while, but noticed the problems, one, he was quite obviously stuck in a cage, and two, Papaya could see a stream of sticky red blood dripping from his head. This created an unpleasent tang in the air and made Papaya shivered as a vioion of her dead mother with blood dripping down and being washed by the rain hit her hard. She knew she would never quite get over her tragic past.
Papaya flew over to the rock and studied it. Not its phyical shape and size, but studied how she could pick it up, her jaws probuably couldn't fit it without support, so she decided to balence it on her feet and use her mouth as a support beam to keep it from falling. This gave her figure a funny shape,,but was an effective way to carry the rock. She flew upwards. It was a struggle, as it wasn't easy on her tired wings or weak muscles, but she finally go up high enough to drop it with some force.
She paused for a moment and wondered whether or not she might hurt Leonard with the movemebnt, but figured that if it were her, she would prefer to be dead to be trapped and die hungry and worse -alone- one of her worst fears. She could just see it now. What if it had been her instead of Leonard trapped in that cage? What if nobody came? What if she hadn't come? Would Leo be dead? That was another thing that scared her, death. For a peppy young bird still developing, Papaya had seen more than her fair share of death.
Papaya stratically let go of her jaw and flung it down hurtling at the cages roof all in the same swooshing moment. She felt satisfied as the cage gave a large dent. It wasn't a perfect cut straight through, in fact it didn't cut at all, but two or three more of those and Leo would be free. A reverse fairy tale story came into her mind where her, the princess, saved the prince instead of the other way around and then smiled at the proposition of girl power.
Papaya went back to the cage to talk to Leonard. "Do you see that giant hole! Sooo cool what a little bit of thrust can do. Do you want me to do that again? Its a bit dangerous I suppose, but it could get you out of there safely. What do you think?" she said, most likely overwhelming the bird as she usually did to others. She had a habit of talking to fastly and for to long. She smiled and awaited his response, an aura of glee radiating off of her.

Leonard gave a small chuckle at her commentary "I've found it hard to make friends after I've smashed open their heads." Leo liked her sense of humor, although she making fun of the situation she managed to keep his spirit up, Leonard cracked a weak smile, still feeling nervous about the situation, trying his best to remember etiquette and manners but, the memories were all blurry, he could still remember something about praising others for their good actions and thanking them but his mind was still very foggy, Leo shook his head, it probably wasn't important, all he had to do is play cool, do his best not to offend Papaya and not scare her away.
Leon curled up on the side of the cage, becoming almost half of his original size while doing so, in an attempt to protect himself from the falling rock, he closed his eyes and hoped for the best.
A loud clang pierced his ears, the cage bar had bent, he looked at Papaya and smiled saying "Great job", as he heard the crow's words he pondered about the dangers of his idea, "What if the rock cut him? What if the bars caved in to a point where they would impale him? Would he bleed out? And more importantly would he scare Papaya? Bleeding out on your first meeting isn't polite! In fact, it's really rude", Leo didn't want to seem rude on his first acquintance, he answered with a chirp "Maybe instead of throwing the rock you could help me get through the bars? The hole seems big enough for me to crawl out but, it seems like the rock is blocking the way, could you pull it out?".

Papaya nodded eagerly and looked at the rock that had sunk into the cage. She flew up to it, and propped herself up on the chains. Alright Papaya, this is it, either free it and help Leo out, or its back to throwing rocks at the cage. Papaya felt a windy chill coming from the sky. Hmm, I believe that a storm must be on its way. The jubilent crow took in her surroundings for a moment before returning to her task.
Papaya sunk her claws into the heavy rock and found its rough points, as they were used as excellent gripping points. She flapped her wings as hard as she could trying to free the rock from the cage. The metallic scent wafted in the air, but Papaya pushed it to the back of her mind. She didn't need images of her mother laying in that nest right now. That, of course reminded the bird of her sweet, dead sister Peach. She forced herself to focus and started flying up.
Papaya flapped her wings harder and felt herself start to shoot up into the sky, the rock still clinging to her feet. She flung it into the water and watched it fall with a satisfying splash on the other end of the pond. She soared back down feeling free and happy. "Alright now, lets see if I can widen this hole a bit. It should be fine, but it would be rather uncomfortable if you got stuck, plus, you'd dye, so better safe than sorry" she said. Leo wasn't fat, but there was no point in taking any chances.
Papaya pressed her beak into the cage and used all her energy to try and tear the metal further apart. A squeak told her she had made progress. She let go of the metal, the strain gone. She proceeded to do this with the 3 other sides. Her beat hurt a little bit, and she was starting to run out of energy from all this work she was doing, but now that Leo was so close to being out of there, she knew that she needed to keep going.
Once Papaya thought that the hole was wide enough for Leo to squeeze through, she asked "I think this should be good enough. Do you want to try and pry yourself out?" Papaya peered at the metal again. It was reasonably pulled out pretty far, and Papaya knew that he could probuably get out of the cage. She was probuably small enough to fit in, which, of course got her thinking.
She wondered what it felt like, being stuck in a cage and relying on the kindness of strangers to help and guide you. Papaya knew that she would be thankful, but a little untrusting. After all her bad experiences, she was starting to feel a little bit unnerved by other birds, she felt ok with Leo of course, but sometimes, when she say a bird in the sky, her eyes flashed and she remembered her father. She snapped back to reality in just a moment.

Leo observed anxiously as the small crow pulled the rock off and tore the metal apart, she seemed rather tired from all that work which made him feel kind of bad, he honestly didn't know why she was helping him, but he knew he had to pay back.
Leonard chirped a "Thanks!" before poking his head through the hole, his wings getting stuck between the bars, with a strong flap, he managed to release them and pry them out, as he tried to crawl out, his grasp slipped and Leo fell back in the cage, slightly stunned, Lion shook his head and backed off from the hole, preparing his wings and aiming his head "That's it! We're getting out of this darn cage!" Leonard started wildly beating his wings, flying out of the cage almost like an arrow, Lion gave some spins in mid air before gliding down, glad that he was finally free, he observed the huge shipwrek as he slowly got closer to the ground, landing on the golden sand below.
Lion looked around and got close to Papaya, chirping "Thank you so much...I don't know what I would do if you hadn't helped, but I'm really glad you came" Leo cracked a big yet somewhat shy smile and opened his wings, supposedly waiting for a hug, Leon chirped nervously "Is this appropriate?"

Papaya smiled at the nervous looking bird with his arms wide open for a hug. "Is this appropriate" he had chirped. Papaya rolled her eyes "But of course" she said in a funny accent as she swooped in for a hug. She hadn't had a hug in a long time, ever since... Well, Papaya didn't really have time to think about that. She knew it would haunt her forever, but she didn't have to think about it all day.
She pulled back from the hug after a few seconds. "You welcome, and also thank you. I haven't had a hug in so long..." her voice broke. She gulped down the lump in her throat. She put on her best happy face. Papaya wondered what happened next. In her stories, the charactors either fell in love and lived happily ever after, or auto-became friends and lived happily ever after. She hadn't put thought into the fact that it was necessary to actually get to know one another, you didn't just say "hi" and become friends.
Papata took a quick glance around. "Come on, lets go clean up the blood on you, and then go find a place to talk, it will be night in a little while and we need to be prepared." The crow motioned for Leo to follow her. She gave a glance at the shimmering waters below her. They seemed to gleam as light bounced off its surface and back into the atmosphese. "You might want to put your head under, you seem to have some cuts" the bird called to Leo.
Papaya glanced back at the water, gave a little chirp and dove into it. She hadn't realized that she herself had a few cuts from the metal and that she felt weak as well. The water cleaned her off and washed her cuts. She felt herself runnig out of air, and so she shot up into the air again. The hadn't gotten properly wet in so long. It felt good to do so. She felt young again. She was young, but she had to act older as her childhood had been cut so short.
Papaya dove back into the water, amazed at how beautiful the colors of the coral and life beneath the water's surface was. It almost made her want to be a fish, then she realized, she hadn't ate since breakfast, and Leon must have been hungry, stuck in that cage all day too. She headed up to the surface for air, then called up to her new aquantence/friend "I'm going to catch some fish" and then dived in again.
Papaya dove down and sunk her claws into her latest victom, and giant catfish with a lot of meat on its bones. She reached down and gave a hard nip at the head, killing it. Smiling, the peppy young crow flew up to Leo "Dinner" she said. She knew that they wouldn't go hungry tonight. Now all that had to happen was for Leo to clean up, and to find a shelter before the fast-approaching nighttime where they could continue their discussion and get to know each other.

Leonard smiled as the crow hugged him, it was his first hug after all, feeling two heartbearts syncronize in a warm embrace, it felt rather soothing. Why hadn't she hugged in so long? Leo pondered, it felt so nice.
Lion listened carefully as the crow invited him for a bath, Leo dove, spreading his wings and tail and letting himself float and relax, a shiver went down his spine as the water washed his wounds, although it had a stingy sensation, Leon felt relaxed, he released a sigh and took a deep breath before lowering his head, tainting the deep blue water with a reddish-brown liquid, Leo lifted his head and started to flap his wings, flying towards Papaya.
Leo noticed she had caught a rather odd looking fish on further inspection he chirped happily "Did you just catch a Bagre? Pap, you are amazing!" Leon's stomatch rumbled, but he didn't want to take the first bite, something deep down in his consience told him that was impolite, Lion settled near it, waiting for Papaya to take a first piece, "Ladies first." He squawked in a happy tone as he bowed, mimicking a prince in the presence of a queen.
(Bagre = Catfish)

Papaya felt so refreshed, she had a new friend, she had taken a relaxing swim, and now she was about to have a giant fish for dinner. Papaya smiled at Leon's compliment, and nickname Pap, I like that. I might start going by it the crow thought. Ladies first he had said. She didn't want to be impolite, but her stomach gave a low grumble and reluctantly, she bent down to take a bite out of her juicy, wonderful dinner.
Her stomach stopped growling and she allowed her mounth to leave. When she swallowed, the flavor of catfish still tingled in her mouth, she had forgotten that she was not alone. She looked up "Here, lets split it in half" she said. She slices the fish in two, giving Leo the bigger half. He was a bigger bird and she had already had a bite to eat, besides, there was a whole reef full of fish down in the lake anyway, so Papaya was fairly certain that she and Leo were not in any danger of starvation.
The sun had finally started to set, leaving a beautiful aura of orange and pink lingering in the sky. Clouds were infrequent in the sky making them all the more appreciated. Stars were just beginning to appear, but Papaya knew it would be at least another hour or so before they emerged completely. That gave them plenty of time to just chill out, something that neither had been able to do all day, Leo had been stuck in a cage, and all Papaya could think about was her mother.
"So, your probuably wondering about what I said earlier, about hugs" she started. Somebody needed to make a conversation. "My father hated me, my brother Tarot, and my sister Peach. He hit us against our mothers will, she loved us" she said. He voice was close to choking up, but she continued. "My mother helped the 3 of us escape to safety. We came back to get her later, but found her dead. Soon after, my sister Peach died from sickness, and me and Tarot split our seperate ways. Basically anything reminds me of my mother. Blood, friends, future, othet birds, rain, the list goes on and on."
Papaya sat their for a moment. She didn't want to comtinue discussing her miserable life in fear that she would break out in tears, so after a moment of focusing very hard on one star to keep her eyes from swelling up, she turned back to Leo "What about you, what was your life like" she asked. She hoped she wasn't being nosy, or that she wasn't being to egocentric, but she felt a weight on her chest being lifted. It felt so good to just get in out, accepting it. Mabey, just mabey, someday I will move on. she thought. One small step, but a bery important one, finished.

Lion was surprised she had decided to split the fish in half, feeling quite honored he got the bigger half, maybe she wasn't hungry? Maybe she didn't like catfish that much? Leo shrugged his sholders and took a chunk out of the fish.
The sky looked beautiful, all of these colors and shaped he'd never seen before, the contrast between the deep-blue ocean and the flaming-red sky, the scarce clouds danced around the blazing sky, Lion's eyes were a bit teary eyed for a moment, his jaw/lower beak was dropped in awe. Leonard settled down and listened carefully to what the crow had to say, after a moment of silence, Leonard slowly hopped near Pap, she seemed like she was about to cry, he lowered his head and layed on the ground by her side, he didn't understand a word she said, "Mothers? Fathers? What are they? Maybe some kind of exotic bird? If I ask she's going to call me silly... But now, I'm curious." He thought to himself.
As she asked about his past life, Leon was completely confused, his past... Was probably in that cage on the shipwreck, altough he had some faint memories of a large forest, filled with vines and moss, the trees beared leaves so wide that they covered the ground, leaving small sunny spots, Leonard didn't want to be silent, so he tweeted in an insecure tone "I-I don't know, the shipwreck I guess... But if you don't mind me asking, what are mothers?"

Pap let out a small chuckle. "Mothers are... Well. Hard to describe. Its the female who gave birth to you and then raised you. They love you and care for you. Fathers are USUALLY the same. Caring and kind. Didn't you have a mother?" Papaya asked with an inoccent tip of her head to the right. She wondered why Leo didn't know what a mother was. She had thought that was basic. He seemed smart. Mabey something had happeded to her.
Pap bit down to eat her barge. It still tasted good, but now that she was curious, she felt distracted from her meal. The crow accidently bit the bone she was so off. Since her mother had taught her things about other bird types she had learned from her travels before meetkng Iron, she knew there was a cut in his story. Harpy eagle mothers and fathers are supposed to stay with their babies for at least six months after they are born, to feed them and stuff, right? she thought. She didn't want to pry further though, so she shut her mouth.
It was getting a little bit darker, the colors were a little bit faded in the sky and the sky, while still empty and without the light of so called "stars" was becoming darker and giving of an aura of peace. Now finished with her side of the catch, Papaya through the bones of her victom into the depths of the water and let out a satisfying squeal. The bones hit the water with a splash as the sky grew rapidly darker. There were two choices for tonight, find a cave together, or split up and meet some other time. She was still in a chatty mood, so she decided to bring up that later.
Pap smiled, she felt so much better. She wondered how Tarot was, and for the first time, she could do this without cringing and thinking of her mom. She wanted to contact him soon, she hoped that he was ok and well. She could even think of peach with a smile and hoped that her soirit was dancing in the sky cheerfully with her mother, looking over at her and Tarot and guiding her. After all, if Papaya hadn't come to the reef and helped save Leon, he would most likely be a goner, and Papaya would not have a new friend.
"So, its getting darker quickly, huh. Where do you sleep? do you live at the reef?" Papaya said. She assumed so since he said that was where he came from. She knew where her birthplace was. She kept track of it, she had never seen Iron there before, but she still had a shot at seeing and questing her lame excuse for a father. If her mother had left this world any sooner, she would have wished she didn't know her parents like Leo.
(Ooc- Should we end this thread soon, or do you want to continue it?)

Leonard thought for a bit, letting Papaya's words sink in before speaking "Nope, If I ever had one, I don't remember meeting her." He knew he would sound dumb if he asked about it.
Leo took a big chunk of the catfish, savoring the taste for a while before swallowing it whole, leaving it's sharp bones on the ground, he watched as Pap threw her bones away, with a rather satisfying splash.
Leon was surprised at her question, he assumed she had a home, not that she would be obligated to let him sleep there if she had one but, it would be nice if she did, Lion pondered before squawking "I used to live at the cage... At least, that's where I remember waking up today. I can barely remember anything before that."
(Ooc- I'll send you a pm, I'm really hype to plot Leo's fate)

Papaya tried not to gape. "You mean you lost your memory, thats awful!" Pap cried. She felt sympathetic for the eagle, she wondered if the old saying was true was it better to love and be hurt, or to never love at all. In other words, would it have been better if she had never known her mother. She couldn't imagine being sane without her mother, comforting and stong, to guide her. She was sorry she had brought it up. "Well, we can't go back to the cage, most likely we will have to find a place in a cave or something. I think there's one back in the direction I came from." she said. A detailed map of her lovation sprung out in her head. She calculated the exact location of the cave and said "I think if we travel on this path for a little while, we can reach the cave before we loose sunlight completely, but we have to fly fast." Pap didn't want to be someones breakfast, so she sucked in a breath of fresh air and turned to the south. She flapped her wings and lifted herself up and off the ground, she was a quick enough flyer and could fly at a steady beat, especially with the wind working in her favor. Soon enough, they were at a cave, just big enough for 2 birds to sleep in comfortably. "I'll go get some stuff for bedding" she told her companion. She flew down and gather moss and soft feathers, she found some wool on a nearby feild that had sheep on it, and decided to go back with what she had. After adding some leaves to the pairs nests, they looked and felt very comfortable. "Night Leo" She whispered. The sky was completely dark. No stars, no moon. There was only her, her nest, and her companion. Nighttime scared her, sleep was her escape drug. She wanted to get to it as soon as possible. She drifted into a dream, peaceful and content. Then, a dream started to form. It was of a calm body of water, it helped Pap to relax. Suddenly, flashes of her memory came back and she saw her mothers figure forming in front of her. "Mom" Pap asked. Her mother nodded. "I came to say I love you, goodnight, and also, your father, Iron (She grimaced), was to blame for my death when I wouldn't tell him where you, Peach, and Tarot were, he beat me to death. Just don't blame yourself." Her mother said. Pap sat up, a lot now on her mind. Ooc- I can't beleive I just did that to Pap, and you know what, I think we should try out that romance idea you proposed, he can help her move on, she can help him find out what happened to him, all while falling in love <3.

Leo was confused about her reaction, but soon realized that, maybe he had a life before the cage, his head hurt a bit, it's kind of hard to process such a thing in such a short period of time, he shruged it off and payed attention to Pap, she had mentioned something about a cave, he smiled and nodded "Lead the way!" He said in an upbeat tone as he flapped his huge wings, making some of the sand float around for a bit, creating a sandy-mist. Lion followed Pap, he barely needed to flap his wings, the wind could almost carry him away, the gales, rusttling through his feathers somewhat soothes him, making him forget the stinging sensation of his scars, as they arrived in the cave, he settled and started picking out some of his feathers in hopes to make a kind-of-rustic bedding for his friend, as he turned around, Pap was already gone saying she was going to being some bedding, Leonard decided to hide his last-minute nest under a small rock, while Pap was searching for bedding, he decided to observe the sky, the moon gave a weak and faint shine to the area, making some dews on a nearby shrub appear to be glowing. Leonard greeted Papaya with a smile when she came back, appearently she had brought a big, fluffy...Thing? He didn't know what it was, but it surely looked cozy, after they prepared the nest, he settled, trying to find a comfortable spot, he heard a soft whisper "Night Leo", he smiled and responded as he drifted away into sleep "Night Pap", Leo found himself flying in a big rainforest, making agile and daring mid-air turns, small and gentle raindrops running through his feathers as he bravely raced the powerful gales, it felt so...Nostalgic. Leon woke up with the sound of Pap sitting up, "Maybe she had a nightmare?" he thought as he closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep, and extended his wing to cover her, using his long feathers as a blanket, pulling her closer and curling his huge body around her, he started to hum, in hopes to lull her back to sleep. It felt like the right thing to do, at least that's what his instinct was telling him. (If you are wondering, he was humming this song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfAEMal84ag)(Ooc- Yay Plot is starting to move! *choo choo*)
