A little late, but their time has come. Syndes and Soua head right into the Training Fields, but meet a lost Skydancer with broken wings, Vika, as they make their landing. Although they know better than to allow this stranger to tag along as they begin the trial, Vika tails them against their will, hoping to find his way out.
They quickly encountered a pair of Silky Webwings whilst bantering with the strange Skydancer. Syndes gets the first hit in, but her opponent deftly dodges. Vika takes the brunt of their opponents' anger, blocking the hits directed towards the Spiral. Soua gets the first actual hit in, and in a bout of irritation, Syndes manages to critically wound a Webwing. Soua gets hit, and as she slashes back, she manages to get a good hit in. With a final blow from Syndes, the last Webwing falls. By the end of it, they're most wounded in this order: Vika, Syndes, then Soua.
Their next encounter appears to be backup that has arrived too late. A lone Silky Webwing buzzes above them. The Webwing hits Vika, and the Skydancer is just on the verge of death. Luckily for him, the next attack is directed towards Syndes, injuring her, just before it's felled by Soua.
Next is a pair of Brown-Spotted Miths. Again, Syndes misses her first attack, but Soua backs her up with a shred that lands squarely on the Mith. Syndes imitates, shredding the second. Both Miths, so far have not yet attacked, working up an amount of breath - but then the second Mith strikes back, aiming a contuse at Soua. Soua nimbly dodges, and Vika counters with a contuse of his own at the Mith. The first Mith is near to death, but still deftly avoids attacks from both Syndes and Soua. It aims a shot at what it assumed to be an easy kill- but Vika, too, dodges it! The team finishes off the Mith duo and carry on.
Sweetpuffs dart down at them. Vika is finally killed, laying lifeless on the ground. Syndes follows quickly, unprepared for the Sweetpuffs' ambush. Soua stands alone in the battlefield, shock and horror on her features. But she knows better than to be disheartened now. With a roar, she tries her best to hang on. Her efforts are fruitless, but her spirit continues burning undyingly. The Sweetpuffs are relentless. Before the Sweetpuffs can deal her a final blow, however, she is saved.
Before she can see her saviour, her body finally gives in, and she collapses to the ground, unconscious and bleeding.
Hmm, although I had been subconsciously rooting for Soua, I have slight regrets at losing Syndes. I suppose it doesn't quite matter though. I'm happy enough with Soua's upgrades. Even if her mate is barely tolerable for me.
Feel free to ask if you'd like Syndes. Her ID is 35745656
Meet Hyde, the brooding male Ridgeback who'd rescued Soua just in the nick of time. I'm not a fan of Ridgebacks, so hopefully this stage goes by quickly. I never thought I'd be rooting for a Ridgeback hatchling from a pair. Nice matching eyes with tert, but still. Not my thing. Plus, he can have either really ugly babies with Soua, or just decent ones. And there's an 18 day cooldown. Guess I'll be back in a month?
