Chapter 10
Silent POV
After we had eaten breakfast we had packed up and left the hotel. We were currently air born and on our way to the school. I smiled as Shadow and I flew. Our wings touched with every stroke, sending a small jolt of electricity. I closed my wings and dive bombed.
Shadow closed her wings following after me. She dove down and down. Talia flew to
"Silent! She's not pulling up!" Talia said her voice was full of panic. I heard the panic in my voice and folded my wings in diving down after her. I caught her 50 feet above the ground. Her hands were covering her ears and her eyes were closed. I could see the tears and that she was shaking.
"Shadow are you OK?" Talia asked when we were in ear shot.
"Let's land" I said angling downward. She followed, her wings copying my movement. We dove threw the trees landing on the soft grassy ground. I closed my wings and set Shadow on the ground.
"Shadow can you hear us?" Talia asked. Shadow was shaking and was extremely pale.
"Shadow. Shadow." I shook her shoulders as I spoke, "Say something"
"T-There E-Experimenting on H-Him!" She said her voice shook.
"Who? Who are experimenting on?" I asked afraid it was someone on our team
"Z-Zack! I can hear him screaming!" She stuttered, "I can feel them cutting into his chest!" I pulled her on to my lap and stroked her hair.
"Its Alright, we'll get him back. I promise" I whispered in her ear. Her Breathing slowed as she relaxed.
I gave a faint smile as her eyes opened. She had stopped shaking and looked almost calm.
"Shadow? Are you OK?" Talia asked her voice shaky. The younger ones had never seen her cry. Leo and I have seen her cry. Once. That was the time she had caught her wing on a power line. Her wing had snapped and it had shocked the heck out of her. That was when Ian had taken the younger ones to the park. Shadow and I were only 14 at the time. That was 4 years ago.
"I'm Alright" She said sitting up, moving out of my lap.
"What happened?" I asked.
"I could hear him screaming...I could feel them cutting into him. I felt like I was in his place" She said. I laced our hands together. She looked at me her brown eyes showing she was scared for her son.
"We're gonna get him back I promise. He's alive and will stay that way" I said squeezing her hand. She pulled her hand away and stood up.
"Alright. Let's get going again. If we can fly threw the day, no breaks, we can make it there by tomorrow morning. Think we can do that?" She said in her leader way.
"Yeah!" Talia cheered and I gave a small nod. She smiled opening her wings.
"Now let's go. We've got family to save" I opened my wings along with Talia. We shot threw the tree tops and were back in the air with in minutes. Despite the slight delay of her being hurt we would have to move twice as fast to make up for lost time. But we'll manage...
