First topic message reminder :
Aero couldn't help but feel excited as the wind brushed past her feathers. It wasn't flying, it was more like falling... But it's the thought that counts, right?
Too bad that when the archen had decided to leave her home on the Floating Islands, she didn't remember to think about the 'Hitting-the-ground' part. Since she wasn't a ghost pokemon, she wouldn't just go through the ground and be perfectly okay. She wasn't that lucky.
As she held out her wings to slow the fall, she realised she was heading towards the water. That... Was not good, to say the least. She wasn't a water pokemon, how would she know how to swim? "Dang, what is with my luck lately!?" Aero exclaimed at her misfortune. She managed to steer right so she would land in slightly shallower water that was closer to a beach. In spite of the bad scenario, the archen had to admit she loved the view from the sky. She would have to remember it, since she wouldn't be able to fly until she evolved.
A loud 'SPLASH' as Aero hit the water jolted the archen out of her thoughts. Thankfully, she wasn't too far from the edge of the beach. She somehow managed to reach the shore after a lot of half-floating, half-flailing in the water.
"Okay... Looking back, it was sort of lucky I fell in the water, or else I probably would have broken a bone from that fall." The archen mumbled, since she might as well try to think of one thing that had gone right today. She heaved herself to her feet and finally got a good look at the place around her. There was sand, obviously, and water. That was about it. She hoped she hadn't landed in the middle of nowhere.
Aero tried to shake off her wet feathers. Unsurprisingly, she had no success. "Well, might as well look around. Maybe if my luck improves, I'll find something." She thought out-loud. She didn't really have much to lose by looking around, even though she probably looked like a total mess. Her right wing stung like crazy because it had taken the brute of the impact when she slammed into the water. Maybe if her luck improved even more, there would be an Oran Berry somewhere around here.
But she seriously doubted she would get THAT lucky.
In all seriousness though, Aero could have sworn she heard footsteps or splashes or something, like someone was around. Oh well. She was probably just imagining things.
