What the.  .  .  .  . 

What the hell is with this island?

"Who are you?" I felt something long, thin and sharp against my neck. A knife?

"Leave him alone!" Tora threw herself at a guy, who I couldn't see.

I sighed. "My name is Kladren, and the girl attacking your friend is my twin sister, Tora. We ended up on your island entirely by accident, I swear. We have a rowboat, and we can leave tonight if this your territory or- Tora!"

The man sighed, and pulled a machette away from my neck. Why a machette . . .?

"Call me Rick. Sorry about your sister, but I guess Claro was getting too much of a fight. Anymore and Lily would've tried to eat her. But, there's no harm done, lad-"

"Klad. " Uh, only Tora calls me Klad. "-ren. Kladren. But, whatever. continue."

"Yes, yes. Now, there's no harm done to your sister, Kladren, she should be alright in a few minutes. Do you the two of you have a place to stay?" He helped me stand. Seems to be a gentleman of some sort.

I felt releif washing over me in large waves. Friendly, just protective.

"Ah, no, sir, we've only just arrived. yesterday, in fact-"

Oh, Lord, please, no. Not now.

I just felt myself hit the ground. My head was pounding, but I saw. . . .

Monsters.

Elena, and others I didn't recognize.

How did I know her name, anyway. . . . .

Something was wrong. Everytime I missed a beat, missed a fragment, the pounding grew.

So this is how it feels to have the gift of sight. . . .

He has the Gift of Sight. He won't admit it.

What?

We'll take him to Pixel. She may know of a way to help him.

The monsters closed in on them. . .

everything went black.

Author guidance for This exercise

Hey Everyone!
All I want to say is please have a go at the collab and PLEASE go along witht the story line at the start but add your own twist at the end to keep things going along.

PLEASE NOTE!! There are now 2 ships(one's a pirate ship the other isn't) that have landed. (maybe you could make them meet sometime in the story!)

Also, Sonny (one of the authors) doesn't want people to incluede his character too much in their own chapters without his say so (not to be mean!) The Knight of Elderado.

If you read the story before hand, it might help you write your chapter :D

Character Bio's: (Havent got them ALL yet! :P)

Tovek: He is from Vrak, known as a vrakean, more specifically he is a vrakean aeronaut, he rides special birds known as harpies, beautiful and multi coloured and large, his homeland is a tropical rainforest full of dangerous creatures, as such he is dangerous, fast and cunning with sharp sight, hearing and smell, he is great with a bow and can set amazing traps, he is very loyal and loves his harpy and has a secret crush on pixel! He wears a brown tunic when flying, otherwise he wears just a brown pleated kilt for speed and the heat, he carries a bow with a quiver of handmade arrows and a net around his waist like a belt.

Elena: Is a human, though she is far from normal. Born with the Gift of Sight and a Healer, she never fit in with the society that she misses so. A shipwreck out at sea years ago caused her to be washed ashore to the Island, becoming fast friends with Pixel. Her pale skin, hair, and clothes allow her to blend in, unnoticed on the island, unless she wants to be noticed...

Ren: Knighted by the queen of an independent kingdom in Europe, he sails the seas with his first mate rodger. Ren's knighthood was given to him after he saved the Kingdom's harbor from pirates that were notorious for their brutal murdering and raping.His style is not typical for knights. Ren wears eastern clothes, and no armor. Having armor slows him down.
The ship he landed on the island with was a fifty year old corvette. Five crew members helped him sail, but they died tragically.

Rodger: Rodger is Ren's first mate. He started his life as a pirate terrorizing the traders, but was saved by Ren in a raid in a peaceful harbor. Even though he was completely guilty, Ren kept him as an aid for when the seas got rough.

Pixel: Is 16 years old will turn immortal in 2 years. Is an Elven but is what they call a Voicer, they can control things by thought but ususal voice. Her ears are sharpe as are her teeth like all her kind. She has long blue hair that reaches her hips in a plait, her eyes are blue but go fully blue when she's using her gift. Her skin is blue like all her kind but has a faint sparkle to her's. Is quite small and wears cotten shirt with long sleeves that are loose and loose trousers, has a belt that sort of goes diagonally, it has a scabard which contains her Star Dagger. She is fast, aggile, has great sight and hearing, she also respects nature quite alot. Has a crush on Tovek.

Yaeri: A creature of the island. Has blue fur and dark blue markings around her eyes and dotted across her back. She has two big eyes that are golden and two smaller eyes on the sides of her head that are black. Her tail has spikes on it that are filled with poison. Her species, the Ewair, are hunters and make their nests in trees. They generally live deep in the forest and feed on smaller animals, but Yaeri wanted bigger prey so she is now living on her own in the lighter forest. She is intelligent, she can speak the native language but not English. The biggest fears for an Ewair are creatures that are bigger than them and water.

Rick: His full name is Frederick Garcia. He hails from the islands of the Caribbean. He is a tall man with black hair and amber eyes. He had set sail on a ship containing Incan from their land. He used to work on the crow's nest on his ship, so i'd say he has amazing eyesight! His ship got wrecked on the rocky beaches of the Island of Fate and the rest of the survivors all died one by one, killed by the beasts of the island. He's been on the island for almost a year, constantly moving for shelter. Has become an able hunter and has two weapons, a machete and a revolver with 3 shots remaining.

Olivio: Was found on a beach when he was only a baby. So the people who found named him Olivio which means Beach child from that day he is 15 years old .Since then has displayed abilities superior of that of a human. Apparently he is blue. Hair is silver , eyes are green like a leaf. He wears a black shirt and pants.

Kladren: is 17; lond dark hair and green eyes. He and his twin sister Tora are on and ongoing mystery/treasure hunt type quest. They were on board a ship for two years, until they finally found what they were looking for. Tora happened to "find" the missing paper they needed by playing with the heart of the caption's son. Once Kladren found out, they escaped in the dead of night. He had also recently discover the gift of Sight, about 2 months after they boarded the ship
