Chapter 8
I held my shoes in one as I tried to get out of the inn. It has been tree days since I woke up and the four males were not letting me out of bed. It was driving me crazy; my wounds were nearly completely healed now.
"Siya, where do you think you're going? You were told to stay in bed till Hakkia said otherwise." Sanzo said as he stepped into my line of sight.
"I'm fine, don't worry about me." I said with a smile, I then held my hand out to him. "Sanzo I want to show you something."
He didn't move so I grabbed his wrist after slipping my shoes on. I lead him outside and jumped up on to the roof with Sanzo over my left shoulder. I put him down and turned away to look at the night sky with what I planned to tell him, I didn't want to see his reaction.
"Sanzo, this is one thing I love more about being me is my ability to fly." I said before going in to the story that I needed to tell. "When I was young, about one hundred years old, I joked with my father. He took it far more serious then he should have, so he decided to train me how to fight. He was hard on me for my first lesson."
"What do you mean by that?" He demanded as he stared at me, his aura told me that he was both confused and curious of why I was telling him this.
"I had to fight off twenty or so guards. They beat me till my beast took control. The only thing I know is in the end there blood coated my claws and mixed with my own blood." I said with a voice that was a growl influencing my voice. "After that day I never trusted my parents again and it leads me to run away. Now, I'm happier than I ever remember myself being before."
He didn't say anything and I was thankful. I leaned back on my heels for a moment before turning around and pulling Sanzo on to my back with my wings unfolded. I jumped into the sky feeling the familiar caress of the wind as I flew above the town for a better view of things.
"Siya what are you doing?" He asked and a small smile appeared on my lips. I looked back at him from over my shoulder.
"I'm showing you something that most humans will never know. How it feels to fly, seeing things from above." I said. "Now just look around and enjoy the view."
I flew faster; it is wonderful to have this freedom. It was something that picked me up no matter what happened. But this time, it was bliss, and all because of a human; I'm toast.
"Thank you for showing me this Siya." He whispered.
"And thank you for being my friend." I said, I forgot everything except him, me and the sky. I wasn't alone anymore and it was the best feeling. His arms tighten around my neck as I speed up.
"Siya, we should head back before Hakkia finds you gone." Sanzo said.
"Oh, but I don't want to go back yet. My injuries are almost not seeable anymore, I think I deserve a little freedom." I said but turned to the inn anyway.
I landed outside the inn and removed his arms from my neck already missing the feeling. I then kissed him on the cheek before running to my room. I ten laid down and fell to sleep. There was a smirk on my lips as I slept.
