 The Beginnning
by Animal Jam

 And so it was that the Sky Father was named Zios. He created many stars and planets, and set them in motion. But after eons of creation, he became lonely. So he created the Sky Mother, a grey heron, and named her Mira.

Mira was beautiful and kind and they were very happy together. She loved Zios deeply and often told him how talented he was, encouraging him to create. Together, Zios and Mira created their masterpiece: a lush land filled with oceans, mountains, meadows, and all kinds of plants and animals. They named this special world Jamaa, and for hundreds of years, the world and its animals were at peace.

But today, all is not well in Jamaa. A mysterious dark force has crept into the land, stealing away animals and ruining the beauty of Jamaa. Only you can help save the animals and restore the world to its glory. Please help, for you are Jamaa's only hope.

Zios's Death
by Amy Jiao(AJ)

 The animals banged hammers, and brought in baskets full of jewels glittering in the bright sun.They were building a tall and allmighty statue of their king, Zios, and they were almost finished after three years of hard work. They had finished Mira's statue a decade earlier, and the king had requested his own statue. That was before he had been corrupted
You see, he once had hiked all the way into the Forgotten valley, where all the spirit stones were stored.Nobody, except for the alphas and the gods, could acess the valley without being ambushed by sleeping spirits, and die fighting. But after he had come back, he had been greedy, demanding that his statue become more and more mighty. Now, Jamaa was poverty-striken, and the workers could barely feed their own families, since more workers were being taken from the fields to work on the statue.However, nobody fought back, since they all feared the king of the Cosmos.Only Sir Gilbert dared such a thing. "Why can't we just mutiny?"he would demand Mira and Lisa whenever the alphas met. "I agree,"Amelia always said, growling under her breath, but again and again Greely would shush her. "Because my husband is a good deity, and he must just want to make Jamaa not look weak."Mira would say. "But we DO look weak if we keep on working on a mere statue!" he would argue, and that was quite sensible, but nobody wanted to see the wrath of Zios. Many moons passed, and yet Zios didn't stop demanding.Soon, even the alphas were struggling to feed themselves. "We have to do something!"Gilbert shouted. "Do what?"Peck asked, painting her belly turquiose."Let Zios destroy Jamaa?" "Well, that's inevitable if we all keep this up."Gilbert argued, sensibly.Since he was a great tactician and warrior, they finally gave in. They huddled around him to listen to his plan.
 The day when the statue was supposed to be finished, the alphas went into the township to see Zios at Mira's statue. The ruins were far below the bamboo forest, since Mira had put this ledge onto Jamaa township as a tribute to her. There, the floating mask of Zios waited for them, his eyes pitch black. Pitch black? Everyone knew that Zios's eyes weren't pitch black, they were blue. Something was terribly wrong. He had been displayed as a monkey in his temple, since that was his true form (his mask is the only thing safe for a mortal to look at, since his body is pure fire),even though Zios had stated before that his form irked him.But whatever you believe is what it is, as mythology goes."Have you come to recieve new orders?"he growled. "I want my statue decorated with gold leaf!""Sir, we have already done that."Lisa said, her tone stern. "In fact, your people are suffering poverty as we speak." "LIES! Sacrifice the ones that suffer most at the feet of my statue and let their suffering blood spill to feed me!"Lisa, Mira and the other alphas looked shocked. "But they're your people!"Mira cried. "Stop it!" "They are NOT my people if they suffer when I am showering them with justice!""You call killing animals JUSTICE?!?"Sir Gilbert leapt onto Zios's back."You're nothing but pure shadow!"A serpent of evil emerged from Zios's mouth, and the mask collasped.The black muck was alien material, but the African alphas seemed to recognize it."Apophis!"they shouted all at once. The shadow cackled."Yes, chiefs, I have been squeezed into nothing but shadow, and have possesed your beloved king! Once this lady here does her part-"He slithered toward Mira, but she zapped him with electricity-"I shall have an almighty form, and a wife!Muahahahahahahahahaha!"Cosmo went over to Zios to perform nature magic, while the other alphas tried every spell, jinx and charm they could muster to destroy the shadow,but it seemed immune to everything.The shadow crept back inside Zios, and shook off a yelping Cosmo. Sir Gilbert growled, determined to prove himself to the alphas.They never brought him along on quests that invovled rescuing or helping Jammers, since he had scared Amelia out of her mind.He wanted to make himself accepted."I shall destroy you, shadow!"he shouted, and clawed out part of the shadow through an eye.Zios started to awaken from his sleep inside his body, and acted very confused."Sir Gilbert, why are you attacking me..?"he said in a small voice, but he didn't have the strength to fight back, and Gilbert was determined to kill the shadow.They fought for many days, since Zios had many lives, but even after the shadow left Gilbert still pummeled Zios, to "make sure that Apophis isn't hiding."Soon, Zios lay dying on the floor, ichor spilled everywhere.Cosmo worked furiously to make sure that Zios survived, while the other alphas held Sir Gilbert back.After a few minutes of stitching up Zios, Cosmo mouthed three words: He cannot survive.
