okay, I don't have the prolouge in the computer yet, but here are the first few chapters.
Part One:
Ikerpenge
Chapter: 1 The Law
Mother was reading the news paper to Father one evening.
“Listen to this Rob!!" Angie had just come in from playing ball outside.
"The president is making a law that girls must stay inside at all times! Have you ever heard such a thing? Oh well. That’ll keep our Angie from getting sunburned.” Angie was speechless. Then suddenly she yelled
"NO!"
Mother jumped and turned to Angie. "Angie!!" "I can't help it Mother! I can’t stay indoors all the time!” she said sobbing. "My life is out there!” She was really mad now. She marched over to her mother and took the paper and tore it up and then ran to her room in a fury. She said to herself
“I’ll just have to run away and act like a boy!!" Her room had everything in it. A mini fridge, a TV ....EVERYTHING!!!! She tied sheets together, and got a bag and put food and other things in it.
Then she went to the mirror and cut her hair short like a boy’s. Then she made her escape.
As Angie makes her escape out the window, climbing down from the knots she tied in the blankets, she falls! "Ow!" Angie yelled. She wasn't hurt enough to go to the doctor, and luckily her parents didn't hear her. "Rob," Angie’s mom said, “Do you think we should go check on Angie?" "If you insist." Rob said. When they got up to Angie’s room, "AAAAEEEEEEEEEEK!" Angie’s mom screamed, as she saw Angie’s blankets hanging out the window and her hair on the floor, she fainted! Later that day, as Angie was walking around, she saw a girl having a tea party in her front yard. "Hello." the girl said, "My name is Brittney." Angie replied, “I, my name is Angie I mean, uh, Andie, my name is Andie." After Angie met Brittney, she invited Angie into her house. Brittney thought Angie was a boy and started to get a crush on her, but she did not know he was a she.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
So, a few days later, Angie's mom was putting up, ‘ALERT!!! HAVE YOU SEEN THIS CHILD?’ posters. Those kind of signs were everywhere in two days! Angie was yanking Brittany to her house.
Chapter 2: THE GO-CART
After Angie dropped off Brittany, she headed to town. “Maybe I can buy something to get around on...maybe a go-kart... If I can afford one.”
They cost about $200, I think. Oh no! It’s a cop!" She put her hands in her pockets, so that the cop would not notice the size. The policeman said "did you see a girl about your height, running away from her house? She had a kind of brown/gold hair and blue eyes."
"No sir, I sure haven’t. She must’ve had a good reason though." And she ran off, knowing that they were after her.

"I sure will sell you that go-kart there for $175.50; I've been wanting to get rid of the thing for a long time." Angie was just finishing a deal with a teenager.
“Okay! Thanks! How much gas does it take?"
"Ohhhhhhhh, about 5 gallons for 1000 miles." "Wow! Thanks!” And Angie was on her way.
Chapter 3: THE CAT
“Wow. What a nice green park! I think that I will stop for a while.” Angie was driving down the road, in her new red go-cart. She got out and stretched her legs. “Wow! Awesome climbing tree! I’m going to try it.” But when she got to the tree she had other plans. “Oh! The poor cat! Good thing I packed a first aid kit. Hmmmm. WHAT??!!??!!! There are wings on this cat!!!” “Meow” “Ohhh. The sweet little thing. I think that I scared it! Don’t worry. I’ll help you.” I just hope I can. It looks like it got into a cat fight. Angie bandaged up the slice on the cat’s chest, and then looked at the wings. “Wow, looks like you stabbed yourself on something, little guy. Well, we have to go. I wish you could talk so that I would know how this happened.” The cat opened its eyes. “I can.” Angie gaped.
“Y-y-you can?!??!!” “Yes.” Angie could not believe her ears. Am I really doing this? The cat had a voice that could be sweet sounding, terrifying, normal, and everything else all rolled into one. But most of all, it was truthful. “Yes, you are.” “Hey….can you read my mind?” The cat smiled “Yes. You can do it too. . The color of your hair told me that it was you, Ikerpenge.” He stopped suddenly to cough. When he caught his breath, he continued. “I have been searching for months to find you. It has been----- (*GASP*) what in the name of Queen Fajdamma happened to your hair!??!!??!!!!” “Uuuhhhh…have you heard of the new law?” She said sheepishly. “Aaahhhhhh.........that was it, hmmm? Well, do you have the hair? I can put it back on if you want. Oh, we are leaving tomorrow morning.” “No…not right now at least. But I would like to know what your name is-and why did you call me Ikerpenge?”
“You ask good questions. My name is Dalutazo. ‘Air traveler’. And I called you Ikerpenge because that is what one of your names is. It means ‘Twin Blade’. More on why later. But enough chit-chat, I must tell you that your true country is under attack. It has been for years, and your mother and father, the queen and king, have been captured. We were going to wait until you were of age, but that can not be helped now.
“You must return with me. You must exercise so that one of your own race can teach you the powers of your strength. You can do amazing things if you have the right training.” “But I already go to the gym
with Moth-I mean Geladas a lot.” “That is good. We can start at beginner level. That makes things go a lot quicker than I thought. But that is not enough. You must learn to focus most of your energy on one area of your body. I can not explain it any better than that for now. Come with me.” “Well, okay-wait a minute! If Ikerpenge means Twin blade…I have a twin?” “Yes. He is a boy. I almost mistook you for him.” He lifted a paw as he saw the look on her face that said that she was going to ask a question.
“No, no you will not learn his name until later. But now we must go. Come.” And he started limping toward the go-kart.
