Random I know. XD Tell meh what you think.

 

4 million years ago...
The rising sun cuts through the mist like a knife, igniting the forests fields into a fiery red and orange blaze. By the time the sun’s rays reach the Stade, they illuminated a tense and quiet gathering of shape shifters. Perhaps the most important decisions were being made that day; a queen’s fate was being sealed.
At last the large iron doors at the base of the Stade opened and the councillors filed out, their white robes a stark contrast against their scarlet feathers. They were led by the Supreme Councillor, who was wearing sky blue robes, and the entire procession was closely followed by two of the imperial guard. Between them walked the accused, Natasha, queen of shape shifters, was accused of causing the deaths of 6 million fellow soldiers. This was her judgement day.
Judge: Has the council reached a verdict?
Supreme Councillor: We have your honour.
Artemis, Natasha’s younger brother, anxiously watched from the top tiers of the Stade.
Like all phoenixes, his bat-like wings, though covered in feathers, had the same functions as hands. It was with these hands that he gripped the railing along the tier, hoping for the best.
In another, more luxurious section of the Stade, Harbinger, the general in charge of the Imperial Army, watched the trial below with only mild interest. Though his future rode on the outcome of this decision, he was confident it would be the one he wanted.
Judge: If the council has made a decision, may the court hear it now?
Supreme Councillor: We, the council, find her majesty, Natasha, guilty of murder in the first degree for the deaths of six million soldiers.
Artemis’ jaw dropped. His sister was a murderer?
Natasha raised her glacier-blue eyes and fixed the Supreme Councillor with a cold stare. Her deep, blood-red feathers crackled with an ominous power. The claws on her feet clicked impatiently on the tiled floor of the Stade.
Supreme Councillor: As punishment for her crimes, we the council, banish Natasha to a planet of the Judge`s choice.
The judge grunted in agreement and waved at a council member to hand him The Map, which was placed on the table in front of the judge, who closed his eyes and waved his feathered hand over The Map. He placed a finger upon The Map, and, after wiping away a smudge on The Map, made his decision.
Judge: Natasha will be exiled for eternity to the planet Earth. Any who wish to join her on her desolate journey may. Should you choose to return here, however, you will be greeted with your death.

A few hours later, Natasha, Artemis, and an elderly shape shifter who identified himself as Lennox, were wandering aimlessly across the plains of what would eventually be the southern United States. One of the first animals they came across was a primitive horse; they altered that form to be suitable for quick, long-distance travel and began to make their way northward. The horse from Natasha had chosen had long legs and was a deep maroon colour with blood-red mane and tail. Artemis` was stockier built and, because he was a lightning phoenix, his horse form was almost yellow. Lennox`s form was lean and lanky, and was also a deep green color because due to Lennox being a forest phoenix. The only creatures who took any notice of their odd colouring were the ape-like creatures who stared at them dumbly. Lennox told the shape shifters that those creatures would evolve to become the most powerful beings on the planet, besides the exiles of course.
Before long, the exiled shape shifters found themselves near the base of a gigantic volcano. A forest framed the volcano in a sea of green. The sky, now pitch-black, was sparkled with stars. Lennox appeared to be counting the stars.
Natasha: Why did you choose to come with us? I don`t even know you. Any reputation you had will now be tarnished. You do know that, right? And what in the world are you doing?
Lennox: I chose to come with you because I think that, as the queen, you still have a lot to learn. The fact that you have no idea what I’m doing only supports that. I am reading the stars to try to determine our fate.
Suddenly, a bright star flared across the sky and appeared to crash into the distant volcano. Lennox, seeming rather relieved of the star’s impact started into the dense forest.
Lennox: Yes, yes...I think we will stay here.
After a while, everyone had found a comfortable tree to perch in and was fast asleep, everyone but Natasha, who had remembered that one should make a wish upon a shooting star.
Natasha: I wish............I wish we weren’t so alone.
The last thing she saw before falling asleep was a faint glinting near the base of the volcano.

4 million years later, the forest that Natasha, Artemis, and Lennox chose to make their home in had grown substantially. The tree that they chose to live in had grown far taller than the rest, thanks to Lennox’s powers as a forest phoenix. It was in the top branches of this tree that Natasha liked to survey her new home every morning. The wide, unending plains were perfect for running, which had become Natasha’s favourite pastime. When she lived in the heavily populated shape shifter world there­ was no room to run. But here, Natasha could race across the open plains, allowing the energy she gave off to bathe her in a fiery light. To the p*censored*er-by she looked like a comet shooting across the plains.
Even the humans, descendents of the ape-beings, didn’t stray too far into the desert, so very few would believe that a shape shifter was running wild on the plains. It was during one of her daily runs that the volcano chose to erupt, revealing its hidden secret.
*     *     *
It was a warm and sunny afternoon. Natasha was on her daily run and decided to take a lap around the volcano, when it erupted.
It was an extremely violent eruption, more of an explosion since there was no lava involved. It sent Natasha scurrying into a ditch beside the path, where she waited until it was over. After the last car-sized boulder rolled past, Natasha poked her head out of the ditch and gasped in surprise.
The eruption had uncovered an old spaceship embedded in the volcano’s base. It was golden in color and had an opening near the bottom.
Natasha, still in her horse form from her run, crept slowly out of the ditch. Her blue eyes were fixed on the entrance and her ears were flicking back and forth to pick up any sounds coming from inside. There were none. Confident that she was relatively safe Natasha made her way towards the ship’s entrance. She wanted to find out why the ship had crashed in HER volcano.
Her hooves clanked against the metal floor, a sound that echoed ominously. The ship was gargantuan. There was enough floor space for her to run and the ceiling was high enough for her to fly comfortably. The only things she would change about the ship were the dozen or so giant robots lying seemingly unconscious on the floor. Their hands alone were the size of her horse form, and some of them (the ones with a purple sign on their chests) looked downright devious. From the way they were strewn about, Natasha could tell that they had probably been fighting when the ship crashed.
As she continued farther into the ship, Natasha noticed that the ship was far larger than she had originally thought. There were several large rooms back there, and also a series of closed doors that probably led to other large rooms. She noticed that none of the doors had door knobs, and so were probably electrically operated.
As she was leaving, the volcano rumbled, causing the ship to shake violently. One of the robot’s arms flew against a control panel, pressing a large red button labelled ‘emergency’. A satellite emerged from a compartment set in a wall and flew out of the ship. It returned a few moments later and began to scan the robots closest to it, which just happened to be the robots wearing the purple sign. After being scanned the robots regained consciousness. Three of these robots turned into fighter jets and flew out of the ship with a deafening roar. The rest of the revived robots seemed as though they couldn’t be bothered to transform and simply flew out of the ship as robots.
With all that had happened Natasha hadn’t noticed that the satellite had left again and was now returning. It scanned the rest of the robots and returned to its compartment in the wall. The robots got up and transformed as if they were only testing their new forms. Natasha was shocked to discover that both types of robots turned into human-made objects. These robots meant to run about undetected on HER planet!
Natasha left the ship the first chance she got and ran full pelt back to the forest to inform Lennox of her findings.
