*The Avi Entry Story* As a little girl, Tien had always loved her twin brother Tian. They played together and as she grew, she became a tomboy and decided to learn swordplay with her brother. One day, the decided to take a walk in the woods and because she loved her blue sword so much she took it with her. They walked until they stumbled upon a gigantic cave. Usually, this was natural for the forest they walked in but this wasn't a regular cave, it... glowed and it was ice cold. Tien and Tian hesitated; they held hands and went in. They both had their eyes shut but yet glow still seeped into their eyes. Tien peeked through one eye, the blue glow illuminated the cave and a stone simply sat in the center. There were jagged crystals surrounding it. Tian pulled Tien forward and they examined it. With no warning, a sudden flash of light blinded Tien and she heard someone call her name and felt her brother's hand slip away from her. She drew her sword automatically and found a slab of thin stone and picked it up as a shield. She was prepared to fight anything. Then she saw her brother walking towards her. Tian wasn't... Tian, he had red eyes instead of the brown that she had. She stood there and then a pain washed over her starting from the back of her head. When she woke up, she found that her sword was no longer just blue. It was icy and had mist swirling around it. The slap of stone she had used had turned into a sturdy shield with the same icy sheen. She stood up to look for her brother but her brother was no where to be found, instead of the blue light that warmed the cave, a gloomy darkness surrounded everything in the cave. Panicking, she ran around, hoping to find something. Nothing, but that was the problem, she could've sworn that there had been a stone here. She called out to Tian. No answer, not even her own echo. She started to worry and she leaned against the wall and tried to call down. Instead, her vision blurred and she automatically stumbled her way towards the entrance, back to her house. She settled down and saw- well not really, more like, saw through. She closed her eyes and saw normally. Tien was shocked, she blinked and the changes adjusted perfectly. “I must be dreaming...” she thought to herself. She stood up and looked around for her brother. But then cold realization washed over her, her sword was replaced, she obtained a new shield and eye sight but she lost something more important. Tian, her twin brother. Tien stood up and walked towards her room but bumped into things because she saw right through the walls. She decided to close her eyes and make her way through, it worked. In her room, she found a veil, not see through, she tied over her eyes and back around her head. She decided to go into training with her new skills. She left her parents a note, saying “Mom, Dad, I’m going on… I guess you could say journey. I’m taking Tian with me, we both wanted to go. Be back soon -Tien” She slipped it under her parent’s bedroom door. And just like that, she left. She went back to the cave and started her training. She felt something prickling her arm. She looked at her right arm and saw a black looking thing working its way up and stopped at her shoulder. She was shocked at first; she didn’t do anything to the cave but then realized she was again leaning on it. She shook her head and didn’t care. She made her way back into the center of the cave, this time; it was engulfed in a blood lust. The walls were illuminated with red, this time, it was coming from the stone that was missing but came back. She walked towards it without fear and drew her sword. Tien was going to destroy it, for what it did to Tian. She rose the sword above her head but before the slash of the sword hit, there was a black dragon with glowing red eyes in the stone’s place. Tien’s mouth as well as her sword dropped. She stood there and stared at it, the dragon did the same. Tien took an involuntary step forward and reached out to touch the dragon. Then something felt strange at her stomach, she looked down and saw that a solar looking thing was forming as her hand touched the dragon. Tien shrugged it off and picked up her sword and walked away. She didn’t notice the dragon was following her. Tien turned towards the dragon and asked “Why are you following me?” With a gesture of the dragon’s eyes to particular place, Tien made out that the dragon wanted to help. She nodded and started walking again. While walking, she didn’t notice that on top of her cargo pants, the dragon had made a black skirt with red jewels. All of a sudden, Tien felt stronger and protected. She petted the dragon and kept moving. Tien decided that the cave was no longer a good place to train, she moved on. On her way out she saw something, something shiny. She looked; it was her brother’s dog tags that he’d bought for no apparent reason. He just felt that it would be cool. And there they were, lying on the ground. She picked them up and wore them, tears escaped out of her eyes and she looked towards the sky and said “Tian, I’m coming for you.” Yes it's somewhat freakishly long xp enjoy surprised ?
