((OoC:) Yes, there are farms on Leviathans. In fact, aqua humans have farms as well, although the livestock is quite different)
It seems like it was that time again... Rahu would have to once again get the groceries. He didn't really mind it, but he preferred to be flying around. Either way, he was supposed to be getting some bread, some peppers, a container of butter and a box of frozen chicken. He was currently walking from the farmers market towards the bakery with a bag of peppers in his hand.

Zipporah was making her daily rounds on ZX-15. Her mother and Brother had left for work earlier that morning. And her father stayed home, attempting to clean the pig sty of a house they had. She felt like doing something important today. Something worth her while. She would have thought of something to. Had gang of her "friends" not plowed her over.
"Oh sorry Zip, didn't see you there!" Said a nastily tall, thick boy who went to her school. "Hey no problem! Hanging around this bunch must be pretty hard on your eye." She said getting cocky. "Ooh! Now you're gonna get it. You'll need more than new eyes when I'm done with you!" Cornelius shouted.
Zipporah started running as fast as she could, not really knowing if the posse was going for the chase. She glanced behind her. They were. Cornelius had his wings spread wide, yelling at people who got in his way. She was running faster than she thought her feet could carry her! Passing shops, homes, people, and many more things that wall went by in a blur. Finally she decided that the pace she was at could not be held. So at the next shop she saw would be her stop. And it happened to be the bakery. Maybe she could get some fresh bread for her family. She thought while browsing there selection.

By the time he had entered the bakery, he had put the peppers in the bag he had thrown over his shoulder. Looking around, he noticed the place was pretty dead. Just the cashier, probably a baker in the back, and a girl; a year younger then him, two at the most. What ever. He picked up two loaves - walking past the girl on the way - and brought them to the counter, preparing to pay.

Zipporah didn't know how long this bakery would be a suitable hiding spot. So she picked out a fluffy, round lump of bread. It smell made her mouth water with anticipation. She hurried to a the check out line, with one a single person in front of her. This boy could have only been a year or two older her. But Zipporah wasn't paying much attention to him. The focus was shifted to distant cries of people, and the general yell of Cornelius. They were looking through the market now. She didn't have much longer.
The boy checked out, and was waiting for his bread to be rapped. "How may I help you miss?" The kindly cashier said, "Um, I'd like to purchase this." She said, fumbling over her words. Shoving the bread towards him. "Okay that will be three dollars." The man said, Zipporah dug into her pockets, and pulled out three dollar with much effort. The cashier stuffed the bread in a paper bag, and handed her the recite. She walked behind the boy to look normal. Out the door they went, and down the street. Zipporah thought she'd lost the goons.
"Over there!" Nope, still there...

Walking out of the bakery, the bread in his bag, Rahu was prepared to just run to get the chicken. However, something stopped him from dashing off.
"Over there!"
He turned to see what was going on. It seemed that the girl from the store was following him, and some boys were following her. Hmm... curious. Rahu decided to wait and see what would happen.

Walking quickly, jogging, and finally breaking out into a full run. The bakery had been a nice stop though. Zipporah held the warn bread close, running past the boy, and many other people. Cornelius was gaining in on her! She could hear the flapping of there wings. Just a few moments later Cornelius had a fist full of her scruffy brown hair. She cringed at the pain, then looked around to see if anyone would help. But no one came.
Cornelius dragged her to the edge of the Leviathan. She already lived on the out skirts of it, but now she was right at the edge, looking down at the vast sea. Fear rose up in her throat, wanting to scream, but no sound could be made. Cornelius, being a good two feet taller than her, was dangling her over the edge. "This will teach you not to mess with me!" He growled. And released his grip.

As Zipporah fell, Cornelius suddenly got shoved off the edge, along with three other people. Two of Cornelius' friends, and Rahu; the boy from the market. Rahu had his wings out, pure black with a purple tinge. He flew straight down to Zipporah, catching her. The two other boys kept on falling; it seemed that Cornelius had no respect for his 'friends'. He just hovered near the edge of ZX-15, waiting. Rahu hovered below holding Zipporah, also waiting.
"Are you okay?"

"Now I am," Zipporah said, her head was light from the adrenaline. She clung to the arms that now held her. It was the boy from the market! "Wait! Your that boy!" "I'm Rahu, further introductions will be made latter," He said. "Oh ho! So you have a friend do you?" Cornelius shouted, and spread his wings. He jumped off the side, now hovering face to face with Rahu. "I never would have guessed!" Zipporah kicked at Cornelius, getting him right in the crotch.
His wings froze, he started loosing altitude. "Fly now!" Zipporah shouted. She new that this would only last few seconds. So Rahu took of toward ZX-15.

Rahu watched Cornelius fall for a couple seconds before dashing back up to ZX-15. He shifted his arms slightly and then went sub-sonic, heading towards the Leviathan's tail.
He landed gently, setting Zipporah down carefully so she could get her footing. He stretched his arms as his wings dissolved in the wind.
"So, what was that about?"

Zipporah collected herself form the event, "Well I called a few of them ugly." She shrugged, as if it was no big deal. "So what's your name?" Rahu asked, "Zipporah, Zip to my friends." She found her bread at the edge of ZX-15, reaching down to grab it someone's hand caught onto her wrist. "You can't get rid of me that easily!" Cornelius growled, and pulled himself up over the edge. "Rahu. RUN!" She yelled, after breaking free of Cornelius's grip.

Rahu contemplated running. He thought about not even getting mixed up in the first place. But it's too late now; too late to run. This was his area; he came here daily to think, and to relate on whatever was going on. It was his advantage; Cornelius didn't stand a chance.
"Remember to take a little something extra~" "Yes Mom, I know. Don't you have a Surgery to operate or something?" "Hee hee~ Yes, just be careful Rahu~ And have fun~"
Rahu reached into his bag, past the bread and peppers, and pulled out four long knives - one in between each finger. He then tossed them into the air, and they began to melt. Their thin forms became four small puddles in the air, and then combined into one. On their way back down, they formed into a katana. Rahu caught it, and wielded the blade with the prowess that took years of training; training that he had. He would buy the time that it would take for Zipporah to run. Probably more time then she would need, but at least so. He positioned himself, ready to attack, but waiting for Zipporah to start running first.
"...be careful Rahu~ And have fun~"
Fun, hmm? Alright Mom, I'll have some fun. He spoke to Cornelius.
"Hey! C'mon, let her go, and let's..."
Rahu smirked.
"...have some fun!"

"Hey! C'mon, let her go, and let's..."
Rahu smirked.
"...have some fun!"
Zipporah was momentarily amazed by this display of power by Rahu. Then she felt ashamed that she suggested they run. It seemed at times, she forgot about her abilities. She took a deep breath, and stood fast by Rahu. "You know what, I changed my mind. I'll teach this guy a lesson he won't soon forget." She fanned out her hands ready to use her telekinesis.
((Sorry, I'm a bit short on time. But my next part will be longer!))

((It's no issue~))
Zipporah stood beside him, ready to fight. From the first time Rahu met her, Zipporah didn't really seem like a fighter. This was a new impression - one Rahu liked.
"So, you wanna start, or should I?"
He said this with a quick glance at Zipporah, before returning his glare at Cornelius, and repositioning his stance.

Zipporah made sure that her feet were firm in the ground, even though her legs were shaking like jelly. " I'll go first if you don't mind." She said to Rahu. "Be my guest," He replied. Cornelius had heard this exchange of words, and got ready. She stepped out. And a prickling feeling came to her hands. She raised them, and Cornelius followed 'em. Shock was on his face for a few seconds, at the most. He soon clapped his hands, and a loud, BOOM! Shook the ground and everything on it, Zip wasn't expecting this. She stumbled, letting the connection go for a second. And that's all it took for Cornelius to break free and punch her in the gut. His punches didn't feel normal. They were stronger than anything Zip had ever felt. He back away from her now cringing figure, she coughed up blood. But she wasn't done. She wanted to make a statement. Straining her thin frame to stand up again, she caught Cornelius. And threw him against a near by tree with unbelievable force. The tree was split in two... "All right Your turn." She smiled wicked to Rahu. ((I suck at writing battle action! )

"All right; your turn."
"Gladly!"
Shade smirked before shooting out his huge wings and dashing at Cornelius, preparing to stab him through the abdomen. Before he had the chance, however, Cornelius uppercutted him into the air, following him upwards. Rahu flipped backwards once, but regained his balance quickly. The two circled each other in the air for a while, staring before either one made their move.
However, this staring and circling could only last so long; a bright yellow-toned light burst from Rahu's back, painting his wings gold. The world slowed around him, Cornelius' wings moved slowly, yet kept him in the air, and the Leviathan's speed nearly quartered. In reality, Rahu was simply speeding up. He rushed at his slowed foe, and flew behind him. With a swift motion, Rahu cut off Cornelius's left wing, making a perfect cut.
Before the pain was registered by Cornelius, Rahu reintroduced himself to the normal flow of time. They both came to the ground, each in their own way; Rahu was graceful, his wings retracting as he landed beside Zipporah. Cornelius, on the other hand, fell on his side with his remaining wing flailing about. His detached wing on the ground behind him.
Rahu placed his hand on Zipporah's shoulder, leaning on it slightly. He smiled at her.
"Looks... like it's you turn..."
He closed his eyes and fell over on the ground, still breathing but no longer awake.
