Sky's Arrival
Ice raced Spike down the busy streets to the park. "Aaahhh, come on Spike, you slow poke, I know you can run faster than that!" Ice was in the lead, but Spike was slowly catching up. They ran down the paths of the park and finally Ice stopped at a tree that was near a huge fountain of water. It was late in the after noon and they would have to be heading back home soon, or the others would be wondering what happened to them.
"Ice....you run to fast..." Spike said out of breathe when he stopped beside her under the big Oak tree. They looked up into the tree, it's leaves were turning different shades of orange and red. Winter would be coming soon and the trees would be bare. They both looked at the forest. "Do you feel that?" Ice asked growling. "Yeah..." Spike's eyes turned into slits and his ears started to point. "Don't do it here." Ice said looking a Spike, who was about to let out his claws, "Come on." Ice ran into the forest followed by Spike. They ran until they came to a clearing in the forest. There was a rustle of leaves above them. They looked up, but there was nothing there. "What the hell is it?" Spike asked as he let his claws out. His claws were long silver blades that came out of his knuckles. His ears were pointed and his blue eyes were in slits. "How am I supposed to know!" Ice yelled at him.
They started to hear a what sounded like a guitar being played. They looked up to she a boy of Spike's age sitting on a limb of a tree playing beautiful music with his black old fashioned guitar. It looked as if one or two strings were broke from over the years he had played it. "Hey you! Get down here!" Ice yelled, but the boy ignored her and continued to play his beautiful music. It was like nothing you had ever heard before, soft and sweet, yet it sounded as if he played it with hate in his heart. Spike began to feel dizzy and light headed, "Ice...." Spike fell to the ground as his vision became blurry. "Ice! I-I can't see!" Spike was well awake but he couldn't see a thing. His vision was blurred, "What's happening!?" Spike felt around on the ground till he felt someone's foot. The music had stopped and the boy was standing before him. "Who the hell are you! What have you done to Spike!?" Ice yelled angrily. The boy didn't say a word, instead he strapped his guitar on his back and jumped back up into the tree. He sat with his eyes closed, his arms crossed, and his back against the tree. "Ice...." Spike felt the ground once more till he felt Ice's paw. He grabbed hold tight and closed his eyes, for they were of no use to him now. "Spike are you okay?" Ice looked at the boy hugging her leg for protection. She nudged his head with her nose and turned back to the boy on the tree branch. "Hey I asked you a question! What the hell did you do to him!?" The boy glanced at her but then closed his eyes again ignoring her.
Ice was becoming angry so she walked forward but couldn't because of Spike, "Spike let go, I'm gonna kick this guys ass!" Spike let go and layed his head against the ground as if the ground would protect him now. Ice jumped and tried to bite the boy, but he was too quick. He jumped up to the next limb at the last second. She jumped up the next limb and was right in front of the boy. She jumped at him and bit his arm, but he seemed to not even feel the pain, as if it had no effect on him. His body faded and was replaced with Spike's body. Blood ran out of his arm as he screamed with pain, "Ice let go! Let go! Please!" Tears fell down Spike's cheeks, the pain was unbearable. "I'm trying!" Ice yelled as she tried to get her teeth out of the boy's arm. 'How'd that boy do that!' Ice thought, 'How can someone replace their body with anothers?!' The boy appeared behind the screaming Spike and the struggling Ice. He leaned down near Ice's head and grabbed her head pulling her teeth carelessly out of Spike's arm. Spike screamed in pain as the teeth were carelessly pulled out. Ice's mouth was covered in Spike's blood.
"What the hell are you!?" Ice yelled looking at the boy. The boy jumped down from the tree and ran away deeper into the forest. Ice looked at the wounded Spike. She went up to him and touched his cheek with her wet black nose. "Come on. Lets get you home so we can bandage you up." Ice leaned down for Spike to get on her to ride home but she remembered his blindness. She nudged his hand, "Come on get on." Spike was about to move but stopped and screamed in pain. He layed his head back down. His breathing was rough, and deep, like he was having trouble catching his breath. "Spike..are you going to be okay?" Ice nudge his hand again but he didn't reply, "Spike?" He rolled on to his back and almost fell off the tree but Ice grabbe a hold of him. "Come on, lets at least get down from this tree." Spike slowly got ontop of Ice as she jumped down from the tree. Spike rolled off of Ice in pain as soon as they hit the ground.
