Gilda's POV

Well, we've got five new members joining the flock. Apparently, they are Stella's childhood friends. Their names are:

Dahlia, a brownish 17 years old long-eared owl. She's very smart and is the oldest out of the new recruits. She's also a smart inventing genius, but some of her inventions often backfire.

Willow, a dark blue 10-years old western crowned pigeon with feathers resembling dreadlocks (most of which are concealed underneath her signature striped, floppy hat) She's very shy, however, and is a very talented artist, specializes in painting portraits and is also Luca's older sister.

Luca, a sky blue 4-years old scrub-jay. The only boy out of the new recruits and he's also Willow's youngest brother. He is very playful and imaginative.

Poppy, a light yellow 16-years old Cockatiel. She can be loud and boisterous, though she's definitely more tolerable than that party prat. Poppy also has a fondness for music, but the amount of noise she makes from her percussion often irks us, as she frequently enjoys herself to the point where she is unaware of the racket she makes.

Gale, a dark purple 17-years old violet-backed starling, who happens to be a selfish and extremely vain bird and shoved the poor Blues off a cliff!. Not much else to say about her here. She's even worse than that party prat!

The pigs have set up a new tower, but the new recruits are going to do the job for this battle today. I've been told to stay back and watch with the rest of the birds.

So the first bird going is Poppy. As soon as she was in the air, she went wild and spun straight down through a lot of blocks, although she was having a bit of a tough time with the stone blocks.

Then it was Luca's turn. He called sonic blast so loud it shattered a lot of glass and went through wood effectively. However, the stone blocks stayed put except for some that were in mid-air after the glass and some of the wood got shattered.

Willow had just launched herself. She suddenly pivoted and as she flew through a different trajectory, she cut through wood and glass like a knife through butter. We were all amazed at what happened.

Dahlia had a neat ability too. As soon as she had flown, she teleported through a tree that was blocking the direction she was headed towards and hit a tower that was behind said tree!

Now there were only two towers left. It was Gale's turn. Unfortunately, she flew over the towers and missed. The pigs had won this battle...

Or at least that's what we thought.

Suddenly, Gale flew back, painting over several blocks with gold paint! She went back to the slingshot, and flew into the gold blocks, destroying them, and causing the towers to collapse! Gale was pretty helpful after all in spite of her self-centered tendencies.

King Pig's POV

They think they've won? Well, they're wrong!

I sneaked up behind the celebrating birds and I decided to throw a net onto that griffon to capture her.

Slowly...

But surely...

CRUNCH!

She turned to face me.

Crap.

"You dweeb!" shouted the griffon. "My tail's broken now!"

Uh oh.

"Ouch... get me a drink."

One of my minion pigs ran off and gave me some ice-cold water with a straw.

Next time I really need to watch where I'm stepping on.

And also to make better plans.

Author's Note

I will be adapting elements from several Angry Birds games, Angry Birds Toons, and both Angry Birds Movies into this story. This chapter adapts the "Angry Birds Stella" game and introduces Stella's five friends into this fanfiction.
