   Fake Wings, Chapter 1
Ok, I'll start with Fake Wings for all y'all. Of course, An Extremely Goofy Fan Fic will follow.

Chapter 1

Minoru woke up, yawning loudly as he stretched. His sister Terra was already awake, and had left the house to buy food and other necessities. He blinked in the sunshine, and got dressed, wearing simple black clothes. That was what his wardrobe consisted of; black, black and more black. He groaned and cracked his spine, leaving the room to walk around the town. Their citadel, where they'd lived for the last century, was surrounded by a protective field; nothing could get in unless they were an alter.

"Well, today sure looks like it'll be a good day…" Minoru said to himself, brushing his silver colored bangs out of his eyes, "of course, it's always nice to live in a safe place like this." He chuckled and continued on his way, heading for the market place where he expected his sister to be. Little did he know, this day would not be as nice as he was expecting.

"Okay, troops! I will be going into Alter territory, to see if I can catch any of the scum." A loud, female voice boomed, "I will signal for back-up. If I need back-up, that is. Troops, fall out!" The source of the voice was a young woman, who appeared to be only 18. Her hair was long and black, and it covered her left eye. She was wearing a black, militaristic uniform, and was carrying a gigantic katana on her back. She ran out of the headquarters to the docking back, where her ship was located. It was a small vessel, and only seated one person.

"Identification, please." The vessel commanded in a computerized voice as the woman approached. She brushed her hair away from her left eye, which was milk white and had no pupil. Smiling faintly, she stood completely still.

"Lieutenant Izayoi Aruka of the Hadden Assassination Squad!" The woman shouted, receiving a beep of recognition from the craft. She climbed in, the other members of the assassination squad behind her. She took off in her craft, which was silent, similar to her; at least when she wasn't giving out orders. The Alters' city was across the desert, and was protected by a barrier. If she found an Alter astray, she was going to use them for information, then dispose of them.

"There aren't any sandstorms, so there's no way anyone else will be able to get in undetected… Doesn't mean I won't be able to though…" Izayoi muttered, pressing a little blue button in her vessel. She grinned slightly as the craft began to become invisible; cloaking devices were incredibly useful. Her ship finally reached the forest on the outskirts of the Alter city, and she landed her ship silently. Hopping out quietly, she drew her nodachi, peering through the trees at the dome.

"Bingo." Izayoi chuckled, watching as an old looking woman walked out of the bubble. Silently, she ran through the forest and up behind the woman, holding her sword next to the woman's throat. She hissed quietly, the old woman crying out in fear.

"Tell me how to get into the dome… or I'll kill you right here and now." Izayoi hissed in the woman's ear, pressing the blunt end of the weapon against the woman's neck. The old lady looked up at her, terror in her eyes. Izayoi appeared apathetic, her eyes resting dully on the old woman. After what seemed like hours, the woman decided to answer.

"The blood of an alter must be laced on the dome, and it will be opened…" The old woman replied. Izayoi smiling in response. She let the old woman go, watching as the lady scurried off. Of course, since Izayoi wasn't an alter, she'd need to sacrifice someone else. The woman was old anyway; she could hardly run.

"I'm sorry…" Izayoi muttered, her hands grasping the nodachi tight. She held it off o her right side, and ran past the woman, slashing her nodachi as she did so. She turned and looked at the woman, who looked perfectly untouched. Unfortunately, that wasn't to be. The old woman collapsed in pieces, some blood squirting up into the air. Izayoi sighed and put her had in the puddle of red that was forming on the ground.

"Gomen nasai…" Izayoi mumbled, dragging the body parts into the forest, her hands covered in blood. She placed her hands on the barrier, and smiled when a door formed itself. She walked into the glorious citadel, a wolf amongst the unsuspecting sheep. Rubbing her blood-drenched hands on her shirt, she picked up her communicator, which she would use to signal her fleet.

"I'm in."

Chapter 2 is coming soon!! In about a week or so though… okay?
