Coatl P.O.V.

Well here's another day, dad's probably out being a clown for a birthday party... mainly because he told me yesterday...

Hello there, my name is Coatl, I am an Ornithopteryx, a type of missing link between birds and Dinosaurs. Some how my egg was separated from my parents... but somehow... judging from the sounds when I was in there I think I was more the separated...

Anyway once I hatched the first face I saw was of a red bird with large black eye brows. Even though he wasn't my birth father he cared for me like I was his son. And I see him as my real dad, after all family is more than bonded by blood.

We live in a lonely house on the beach, it was nice, though there is that one kid that comes over kicks a soccer ball at the side. Then Dad goes down, turns out the kid does that because he like it when Dad kicks him all the way out to sea.

Yes he is that strong, unlike most of the birds on the island, besides the mystical mighty eagle, I can actually fly. And I've been practicing, heck I've even took Dad on flights every once in a while.

"I'm gonna take a flight" I said stretching and walking out of the house. After climbing up to the roof I extended out my wings and took to the skies.

It really isn't all that hard to find Dad, I know the couple who hired him for their son's birthday party. Or at least I was there, they also asked him to get the cake too. A gluten free one, and unfortunately the only place to get a gluten free birthday cake was on the other side of the island.

"And There He is" is Dad spitting pops running through the jungle trying to make a B-line for the party. I dive bombed down and greeted him "hey Dad" I said, "Coatl, what're you doing here? I thought you said you were gonna stay at the house" Dad asked me.

"Did But got bored, wanna lift?" I asked him, "well as long as you're offering" he replied jumping on my back... yeah I'm also bigger than most birds.

Luckily we managed to reach the place, "thanks son, be with you in a bit" Dad said before running into the place. My adopted father Red is locally known around Bird Island as the most angriest bird alive.

And I can confirm that, though he rarely gets mad at me Dad is quick to either growl, slap, smash a bag of popcorn over, or even punch anyone else. But I'm one to talk, I've also been ill tempered as well, one time I actually threatened to eat someone alive.

I then heard yelling, immediately I knew it was Dad, I looked and saw that whoever hired him had said the fault was on him. Apparently we were late "get outta here!" He yelled at pop, "oh and also I also have to ask you to fill out this customer service form, anyway how would you rate my performance... woah!!!"

My eyes went wide as my dad had slipped on a squirrel who had hitched a ride and was about to fall on the couple's new egg. "DAD WATCH OUT!!" I yelled before stretching my neck in and grabbed him before he fell and gently put him down. "Whew... thanks son that could've been messy" Dad said.

But I had went wide eyed again "Uh not so much" I said pointing to the mother who had fell face first into the egg. "Oh man", I nodded at dad's comment...

Time skip

Dad was at the court... house I think... judge place... I don't know... anyway the couple were charging Dad on the rage episode he put on at that birthday party. I was there but I was sitting on top of He archway which was the door, "your honor, our family has always practiced natural child birth.. because the possibility of a scrambled infant are too great" the mother said.

"There was going to be flowers..." It droned in about being the baby's first time seeing his parents being memorable. And not having his mother's face forcibly crashed through his egg.

"Ma'am I'm sorry, it was not my intention to make your child's first time seeing you a little scary" Dad tried to apologize. He really did feel bad but he's still pretty sore about the whole the ruined party was his fault thing.

"And as a father myself I would also be mad if someone had shoved my head into Coatl's egg. Heck I'd probably beat them until they couldn't walk" Dad added. "True that" I called down from my perch, "but in all honesty it could've been much worse".

"How could it have been worse?!" Te father of the couple yelled, "Well... if Coatl hadn't caught me, my face could've been the first thing your baby saw... but at least he's calling you two Mommy and daddy and not me right?" Dad said.

The two had nodded, "as true as that may be Mr. Red, that doesn't excuse you from blowing up in a raging inferno at the child's birthday party" the judge said.

"Hey my Dad tried to get there on time, you try getting a gluten free cake from one part of the island to the next. It's like a mile hike" I yelled. "Thank you Son" Dad called back, "excuse me young man, and in addition there have been other instances where you had displayed unprovoked acts of aggression" the judge added.

"Elbowing a mime in the stomach" he said, "that guy was invading my personal space", "you smashed a bag of popcorn over a birds's head"...

"To be fair he sneezed on me and pops" I called out, "you slapped a doctor in the face" "reflex, accidental reflex" I protested. "And not to mention your son has a one act of his own, threatening to eat someone alive" the judge said.

"Hey you leave my son out of this" Dad yelled, "Mr. Red, when you moved your house out of our village, did you notice no one tried to stop you?" The judge asked walking out from behind the pedestal. "Oh here we go" I muttered holding the bridge of my beak, "just because birds smile at you on the street doesn't mean they like you" he added.

fed up I flew down as Dad was going to prove a point both me and him knew, "let me ask you a question, do you know you're not fooling anybody?" Dad said. "We all see you prancing around the street your honor" I said stepping on the back of his feathery robe.

"And you're what, and I'm approximating here... LIKE AN INCH TALL" I then swiped his robe away to reveal the judge was a smaller bird who was standing on a larger bird to appear tall... Hey isn't that the guy who sneezed on us?

"Mr. Red and young Coatl, given the severity of the crimes, I'm afraid I have no choice but to impose the maximum penalty allowed by the law" the judge said. "Both of you... anger management class", both me and Dad groaned.

We were now walking out of the court visibly upset, "fresh worms caught today, Hey Red how are yah?" A worm vendor asked us. "Oh I'm horrible" Dad replied, "not as horrible but I'm just peeved" I said.

Then a pink bird walked by us "oh hi Red, Coatl good to see you two" she said, "I wish I could say the same" Dad replied. "Nice to see a friendly face but not right now" I growled, Dad then got foot in his face by a couple and their baby and was currently being mobbed by a saxophone player. I then grabbed a nearby apple someone was about to eat and stuck it in the instrument.

We were then stopped by a crossing guard, "oh come on" I groaned, after a long wait.... birds don't normally enjoy it when I just take off Uh announced because I tend to blow things around when I flap my wings.

Me and Dad then passed the hug trader and we both looked away, and after we passed the feather shop. I had held Dad back and accidentally got feathers in my face, immediately I spat them out. Then we continued forward, I saw that mime bird copying me.

I then threw something and he flinched and backed away, another thing... I also have other abilities... one of which includes the ability to throw razor sharp feathers. Finally we reached the anger management class, the creepy mascot display outside had made Dad visibly irritated. But he calmed down and we went in... Well first the bird hit me in the head and I stepped on it.

After we went inside I saw some odd statues, a lot of them were of birds hugging... but the third statue was rather... as Dad put it Exotic...

I then stopped after hearing Dad say something while looking at a certificate, "free rage what?" I looked when a girl bird startled us. "Hi there!" She said, "Welcome to the infinity acceptance group, I am Matilda and I'm just super psyched about taking this journey with you!" The white bird said.

What she didn't know was one of her feathers flew off and accidentally landed in my mouth. And to my misfortune I swallowed, but to my fortune I got something out of it.

Another of my more uncommon abilities was my mimicry power, if I happen to eat a feather if birds with unique skills I can take them for myself. Apparently this gal can blast fire balls from her posterior, my I had modified it so I can shoot fire balls from my beak.

She then dragged us into a room that had three other birds, "hey guys, say hello to Red and his son Coatl everyone" Matilda said.

The three birds, one was giant and red, another was smaller and was yellow and rather triangular. And the last was smaller than the big guy but larger than the yellow was black and had a bomb fuse on his head. "Hey Red, Hello Coatl" he greeted.

"Hello birds I won't get to know well" Dad said, "hey" I greeted. "Apparently you two didn't get the memo that we like to start on time and you're both two minutes late hi my name is Chuck I'm sorry we got off on the wrong foot I like you a lot I can tell" the yellow bird said really fast.

I think my Head's spinning, "Okay now Red, would you like to share your story with us, as well as your son?" Matilda asked us. "No not really" Dad said, "I'd rather not" I replied, "I'm pretty sure the court mentioned something about a rage episode at a child's birthday party along with yanking his robe off in front of the entire jury" Matilda said.

"How Long is this class again?" Dad asked, "as long as you make it" Matilda said. I took that as a cue to start leaving but she pulled us down to sit on two pillows. "So in another sense, you're here until I notify the court that your anger issues have been resolved" Matilda explained.

'Oh geeze' I thought, "Chuck! Why don't you share your story" Matilda said to the yellow bird. "Me I am the last guy who should be here, simple speeding ticket. The judge said I was going too fast so I say your honor to be honest I was" Chuck said. "You got me, I'm not angry I'm honest, so shouldn't I be in an honesty management class because I think we need to manage my honesty" he added. I rolled my eyes, I saw what this guy did "really? Well that's a different story that's what you told last week" Matilda said pulling out Chuck's file.

When I flying around the island once, he was going to fast as he said. But he also went to the police station and wrecked the officer's desk. Stole his wallet and went out drinking, and after climbed a tree and dropped ice cream on the cop making it look like he pooped.

However I saw... that wasn't ice cream... "okay so maybe it wasn't ice cream" the yellow belly said nervously. "We get it" I said face palming, "and Terrance, it says here in your little Filey..." Matilda said addressing the big guy. She droned off looking quite frightened, I looked visibly nervous and shifted positions where Dad was next to Terrance and not me.

"It seems Terrance has had... an Um... accident... anyway Bomb here joined us a week ago, mind telling us why you're here?" She asked the big black bird. "When I get upset... I tend to, blow up" he said.

"You mean like get mad?" I asked, "no I mean I explode, like a bomb" he then made a sound effect of a bomb dropping from the sky. "Hence the name" Chuck squealed, "What no way" I said, "oh yes way" Bomb said. "Do it!" Chuck said, "Wait he just said he can blow up like a bomb and you want him to do it?" I commented.

"No can do little amigo, I just went boom boom before class" Bomb said. "Hey look I don't want to be here at all but this could maybe make it interesting to me. So please explode" Dad said.

I sighed and face palmed again, "you can't do it can you?" Chuck said, "I can answer that" I said plucking out one of Bomb's feathers. "OW?! Hey why'd you do that for?" Bomb asked me, I then swallowed the feather.

Then my orange crest gained a small yellow tint on top of it, "oh he can, but I'm not gonna do it" I said sitting back down. "Oh yeah I forgot about your copying power" Red said, "Wait your kid can copy? What does that mean?" Chuck asked.

"If I eat the feathers of birds who have... uncommon abilities I can take them as my own" I explained. "Heck I actually gained one from Matilda" I said, "really you got an ability from me?" She asked. "Yeah Uh fire balls I believe" I answered, "OMGoodness, you have to show us" Chuck said before I plucked out one of his feathers as well. "Enhanced speed, interesting" I said.

Later on Matilda was having us do Yoga posses "nice form Coatl" she praised me "thanks" I replied holding stance. She got Dad to do it... and by that I mean she stuck him in that pose. I then looked over at Bomb to seehe was looking a little stressed out. "Uh Bomb are you Okay?" I asked, "Yeah, yeah I'm fine" he said.

I saw his head fuse starting to turn fully yellow, "Uh oh... uh Bomb please try to stay calm" I pleaded... then... we'll...

As he said before... he literally did explode.
