I was wet, cold, dizzy-- had the strange sensation of being stared at.
The right side of my head was pounding.
Where was I?
I remembered, flying
Falling.
Slamming into something hard.
I shivered.
A heavy warmth blanketed me.
My eyes slit open.
Everything was white.
Cloud?
Snow?
Game over?
I was lying flat on my back, fists clenched, head cradled in someone's palm.
"It's okay, boy."
I tried to talk, but a low, pain-filled growl came out.
Then the smell hit me.
Worn leather.
Old Spice.
Turtle wax.
I unclenched my hand-- fingers reaching.
"Relax, Sam."
Dad grabbed hold.
