Here goes! This is part two:

Caelani (pronounced, say-lu-nie) flew through the sky, his great wings beating the air. All the birds swirled around the Gryphon, he was their ruler. Caelani's wings were white, outlined in silver. His eyes shone with all the emotion of the world, and his feathers shone golden, almost in the sunlight. Caelani soared through the air, then swooped down. He was the picture of power. But then he let out an air-piercing shriek, and all of the birds stopped flying and looked around. And then they saw their great leader falling. Caelani landed on the ground without a thud, or a single sound. He seemed to almost float toward the earth when he fell. He lay near a few boulders in a large field. His bright red blood streaming down from his neck, where a spear was embedded. A tear streamed down from his eye, as he cried out one last time before closing his eyes forever.

Part three coming soon! Sorry this was so short, I have to go! 

*Slaps face* I just had an awesome story, but it got deleted. I will post my idea later, when I feel up to typing it again.

The pain felt as if it was tearing me apart. BIG found me, BIG actually found me! I thought. I finaly got a clue as to where my family is and they shot a bullet in my side! As I kept running I realized that I would have to get to some shelter. I soon saw a big cave. It could be dangerous, but I have to. I could die if I don't, I thought. I lept with all my might into the cave. Too late. I realized there might be hostile creatures in the cave.

As I slowly walked to the animal I could feel that it was peaceful to animals. It said to me: "Who are you?" Tell it the truth, I thought. "I am Claire, a human who doesn't want to kill you," I said. "I am the Gryphon and I don't trust you. You said you were human. Why do you look like a dog?" it said. "I am a shape-shifter," I said. "I promise I am not hostile. You can kill me if I ever try to kill you," I say. "I don't trust humans, yet you have a peaceful aura that tells me you are in need," he says.  I was shot on my back by BIG."  "No not that, it has something to do with family," he said. I bit my lip. "I have been looking for my family for a while." Your aura is very magical. Wait, he said magical, I thought. "I have a magical aura? "Yes it is very strong. It is definitely from a power." "No way," I said. "That must be a mistake." Though as I went through my head it made sense.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 In the beginning, there was simply the spirit of the Void. Within the swirling depths of the Void, an egg was formed and from the egg hatched Ouroborus, the eternal serpent. Ouroborus gathered the energies of the void and formed seven Creatures to aid it in its work. First was a Gryphon, second, a Wyvern, third, an Amphithere/Amphiptere (whichever your preferred spelling), fourth, a Winged Wolf, fifth, a Leviathan, sixth, a Peryton and seventh and finally, a creature of unformed darkness. With the help of these Creatures, Ouroborus created a beautiful universe, full of wonderfull worlds, each with its own set of creatures and magic. At the end of all this, Ouroborus was tired, and it and its Creatures created a final, crowning jewel of a world: Kyngdom. Finally Ouroborus could rest. It sunk into this final world, to sleep, but the spirit of the Void, angry at the destruction of its peace and stealing of its energies, split itself in seven pieces, the seven Stalkers. The Stalkers hunted down the Creatures of Creation one by one and inhabited them, excepting the creature of darkness, whom the last Stalker could not find. The inhabited Creatures fell into Chaos, and the world of Kyngdom started unraveling around them. Ouroboros, in its last moments of wakefullness, exterminated the final Stalker, and Sealed the six inhabited Creatures into six Powers, Wing for the Gryphon, Claw for the Wyvern, Scale for the Amphithere, Antler for the Peryton, and the seventh Power, uneeded, was the Power of Fang. The Powers, excepting Fang, were given to the Flower Carrier, a creature as pure as Ouroborus itself, who was told to find trustworthy creatures of the world of Kyngdom to entrust them to, until such a time came that the contained Creatures could be purified. The Power of Fang was gifted to the last free Creature, the darkness, and then Ouroborus fell to sleep, to wait for eternity. The darkness formed herself into a creature named Claaws, and set out to find the other six Powers to unite them, for the seven Powers, when united by mortals as pure as the spirit of Ouroborus, will purify the Creatures of Creation, and bring peace and prosperity to Kyngdom, and the rest of the universe.

~Excerpt From "The Tome of Most Ancient Knowlege and Historys of the World of Kyngdom,"one of my favorite and most prized books. I have updated the language and spelling to be easier on the eyes. 

As Caelani's body faded and his spirit lifted towards the sky, a flower began to bloom. It's petals spread, bright and golden, but none as golden as the biggest, brightest petal. The flower was small, not like the large flower that the powers came from. But the petal grew ever larger and brighter, until it was too heavy for the flower and fell off. And then it spiraled, up and up, ever closer to the great blue sky, and then dropped, falling fast toward the ground, and then it landed. But as it floated toward earth, a transformation had begun. Gold and silver swirled around as magic enveloped the petal, then the petal landed, but it was no longer a petal. It was a beautiful, ivory flute. The Gryphon's spirit leapt into the flute, and so was born The Power of Wing. When played, it has the power to summon Caelani back to Kyngdom once more. But that is not the end of the story. Although many do not know it, there is more. A young man stepped out of the bushes. His cold blue eyes glowed with evil, and the sunlight reflected off of his dark blonde hair. He was merely a boy, but had taken down the mightiest of beasts. He had coated himself and his spear in Brazen Goo, the only substance known to kill a power. He chuckled to himself, a sickening sound, before grabbing the tiny instrument roughly in his sweaty hands. He turned it over and over, as if inspecting it for flaws. Then he whistled, and out of the brush flew a crow. "Guard this with your life. Don't let it fall into the wrong hands, if you know what I mean." He winked, obviously talking about the Powers.

part four coming soon! Please comment! 

I've made a few changes to my story, and I'm leaving it as a thousand suns. It's my idea, I did not take it from anybody else so you can't blame me for doing so or anything. Moonshadow's is kind of like mine, but mine is just a tad different. Maybe we could combine them? Tell me what you think Moonshadow!

A long time ago, there was a flaming hot planet, filled with active volcanos. Its rivers were filled with molten hot liquid, and no life could thrive.

Until...

Out of one volcanic explosion, there was a flower born, a magical flower made from fire and light. This flower glowed with the intensity of a thousand suns, and the life of a thousand planets. And as it grew, the world around it started to change. The volcanos quickly vanished, along with its blood-thirsty lava. In its place once burnt, tough soil begain to soften, and other life begain to thrive. Grass and small plants sprouted up around the flower, soon to spread across the world. A small stream of water had also started running from the flower's stem, soon to becom an ocean. But as the plant life thrived, the flower was losing the power and magic it got from the volcanos. In its last dieing breath, six creatures were born. The first to walk on land, sea, and sky. In a flash of light, the petals were gone, and the stem crumbled in defeat. But the world wasn't about to go back into its old state. For a new magic was formed. First out of the petals, a small catlike bird creature was formed, just like a kitten with a beak and small wings of a chick. Griffan, it was soon to be called. He controlled the air and kept it clean and lively. He aslo created the storms, wind, and clouds. Next a small, long creature was uncoiled onto the grass. It had two tiny talons, with dull claws that were soon going to be sharp dagger-like swords. This creature was soon going to be called Serpent. He was soon to control the earth, keeping it a healthy softness for all plants alike to grow. Next a small furry creature was formed, with tiny paws and useless (for now) little bird wings like the Griffans. She was soon to be called Angle Wolf. She would control the hushed peaceful sound of the new land, the sweet smell, the beautiful looks of the world, the soft feel to everything (basicly all the senses), and light and dark. Next a tiny, small furred mammal with tiny hooved feet and a small glowing horn staggered onto the earth. She was soon to be called Unicorn. She would control the growth of the flowers, and all life to come. She would also controll a the world's magic. After her a sleek long creature was born, with a long glistening tail and small talons, with a tiny flipper here and there. He was soon to be called Sea Dragon. He would control the freshness of the water, the pure waterfalls, and the difference between salt and fresh. Lastly, a small dark shape was formed. With tiny wings and obsidian scales that seemed to radiate black fire, and glowing eyes the color of the moon. She was soon to be called Dragon. She would control all fire, including the darkness and greed that powers many animals to do great, bad things. 

These animals grew over time, and the environment was slowly made better. Many animals were created to walk the lands of sky, earth, sea, magic, fiery, and sencefull. After awhile, the humans evolved. With the humans, came technology, Medicine, robots, electricity, everything that went against the Powers, as they soon called themselves. They tried telling the humans, but they only cared of their own greed. They blamed this on the fire inside them, on Dragon. She was exiled from the Powers for awhile, but her power still remaind, and the humans still grew stronger. Finally, with no other choice, the Powers went to Dragon asking for her alliance against all humans. With this a war started between Powers and humans. Many were killed. But many survived. The population was growing ever faster. And as the fire grew inside the humans, it grew inside the Powers as well. The Powers came so ambitious for all power that they started killing everything, to all animals, to all plants. Soon the animals sided with the humans, and together, one by one, they killed the Powers. And as each died, their power lived on in an instrument for all creatures to play. But not all of their power could fit into a small instrament. As they were conquored, some of their power was released into the air. But the Power needed a solid source, so they gathered in different types of species. The magic from the Power of Wing gathered in birds of flight, making some birds able to harness wind and storms. The Power of Claw gathered in creatures of earth, giving some creaturs the ability to harness the earth and rocks. The Power of Fin went into swimming creatures, giving some the power to switch salt water to fresh and visaversa. They also got the power to bend water, making it shift into pathways. The Power of Hoof went into all creatures, giving some the power to see in the dark and to shape shift. In rare cases some are able to so magic. The Power of Howl went into all creatures, giving some the power to talk different laungeges and see colors most couldnt. The Power of Tooth alos went into all creatures, giving some the power to mind control and breath fire.

The Powers may have been killed, but they are still alive in a way, the instruments are able to breathe the breath of life into the long dead creatures anytime when played. But as the creatures rest, their power is still strong, especially Dragon's whose power is flaming inside some certain scientists.

And to make sure the Powers never got activated, the king of Kyndom, a human, apointed a guardian. He appointed an animal, one of which the powers could turn into, to guard the power forever. But promises don't last forever, and the creatures in charge, humans, forgot who their alies were. And, killing animals on their way, have managed to find more than one of the powers, and summon the giant beast inside.

As for the other stories, in the middle of the war, the Powers needed spies. Since they were so big and obvious, they wouldn't work as any spy. So combining all their powers, they managed to give each other an animal form. The griffan became a crow, the serpent a badger, the angle wolf a wolf, the unicorn a white steed, the sea dragon a monitor lizard, and the dragon, a Panther as black as night. With these came code names, which you all know the panther is Claaws.

and we still haven't agreed on the names of most, can someone list all of the suggested names for each of the powers?
