Cleo POVI cannot remember much before joining the Dúyè...
I only remember...uhh...being in my mothers wings. I could feel her love and it really makes me happy whenever i think about it. My father loved to play pickaboo with me wich made me laugh.
But it all changed after that one night...
All i can remember was...people screaming...begging for mercy...And then being lifted off my bed by scaly hands...
I was brought to the Dúyè Clan base. I was so young...i didn't understand what was going on...i was inside a new room on a bed. Looking around in confusion. Suddenly the doors opened revealing Typhon in his younger stage and Jinx behind him.
Typhon: hello there uhh...what was her name again ?
Jinx: Cleo
Typhon: Cleo ! *chuckles* my apologies. You probably thinking why your here ?
Cleo: where's mama and papa ?
Jinx looked a little hurt while Typhon smirked.
Typhon: i am sorry to tell you that...your parents are no longer with us...your village has been taken over by uhh crocodiles ! But i came and saved your life.
I tilted my head not knowing what he's talking about.
Typhon: ...Jinx i can't work with this, i can only fool adults not...baby's...you do it !
Jinx: *bows down* as you wish, Lord Typhon.
Typhon left the room closing the door and Jinx approached me.
Jinx: hello there little one.
Cleo: where is mama and papa ?
She gave me a warm smile and reached her wings towards me picking my tiny body up. It felt like...im being picked up by my mother.
I buried my face into her feathers and closed my eyes. Jinx smiled and walked outside of the room.
5 Years Later
Jinx: fire !
I threw my feathers at a target wich sadly didn't hit the middle.
Typhon: disappointing. I want improvement Cleo !
He said while walking away and it dropped my mood. Jinx put her wing on my shoulder and i looked at her seeing that she had a warm smile as always when Typhon isn't around.
Jinx: that was good. Just concentrate more on the target. Then you might hit it.
I also smiled and tried to throw my feathers again and it didn't hit the target.
I looked disappointed at Jinx who still smiled.
Jinx: that was way closer than before ! Good job Cleo !
I smiled again. Jinx has been acting like my mother and it makes me so happy.
Jinx: you should rest. Your done for today.
Cleo: thanks General Jinx, but i want to improve more.
Jinx: *chuckles* good girl.
She now left and i was alone inside the training room training to improve my aim.
But suddenly the doors busted open revealing Toxin who is crying while running away from a mad Sun who had yellow paint on his head.
Sun: get back here you molted banana !
