Chapter One: The Beginning

Hi, my name is Umar and I'm very powerful, having fire and water power.

You're probably wondering how I get these powers in the first place.

This started when I was 10 years old and I live in a house by myself.

I have a companion, Sam, for company. Sam is a swan.

Sam wandered into my home knowing I'm alone, and he has a power that can scan and identify infections with his eyes and his talons are like pencils that they've run out.

Anyways, I live near a gigantic airport that's abandoned for a single reason:

There's a monster guarding it that looks like a plane, but has four fleshy legs and two arms with a mouth that could fit a van in it, and it looks infected.

Chapter Two: The Plane

That night, me and Sam were planning how to defeat this creature.

We gave it a nickname: Infected Skies.

The plan was:

  • Sam going to the airport and scanning for the infection
  • Then Sam and I will go and look for the cure
  • After that, we'll find the source of infection and drop the cure on it
  • The disease will be cured and the monster defeated

Chapter Three: Staging the Plan

The next day, I sent Sam to the airport to study about this infection.

He tracked the plane down "Infected Skies" and found the infection.

And told me the name is very, very rare.

And after we've now got this information, now we've retrieved this information, we are going to go and find a cure.

Chapter Four: Ruby Well
