I tugged a bit on the wing, the strap just about to come off, and felt fire run through my body. I sank to my knees as the pain rose, and rose. My vision started to darken. Then the pain stopped, just vanished. The straps were lying discarded on the ground, ends burnt and charred. The wings fallen upon the floor, mangled as if they had been run through a lawnmower.

I shook my head in confusion, what the hell was that? I stood, and paused, feeling an unfamiliar weight upon my back. I focused completely on my back, and felt something stretch and unfurl. I cast a nervous glance behind me and nearly fainted. Long, black, red and silver feathered dragon wings were on my back. Yes, feathered dragon wings, instead of scales I had small, tiny feathers. On the inside it was pure leathery skin, silver with red veins and hard, black bone ridges. On the outside the feathers started black at the tips, where it met the skin, then flowed into red, then silver.

I blinked a couple of times, and decided that I should rip the back as well as the sleeves. I slipped it and the black leather pants on, then put my boots on over. 'I look like a demonic S&M angel,' I decided finally. I shook my head, that definately wasn't the look I was going for, but it's not like I have many clothes to choose from.

I stared at the wings a bit and decided to see if I could fly, or atleast attempt to. I focused on stretching and flexing the muscles in them, and to my surprise I rose a bit, but was quickly tired out and fell on my butt. 'Owie,' I pouted. I just shook my head, retracted my wings till they lay on my back like a cape, 'Hmmm... Didn't I see a cape like that in his closet?' and wandered out the door with Sakura, I had picked her up after I got off the ground.

Sarah stompped a bit ungraciously behind the three brunettes, thinking of doing particularly horrible things to a certain chick (she'd say bitch but that would be taken as a bit of a challenge) named Theresa. (Everybody hates her!) She grudgingly admitted that Shellee and Michelle were okay, though they were a tad better at manipulating the scenary then her, not that she'd ever admit it to them. They all leaned against a wall as they sat down, the hall just went on and on! She, unfortunately, leaned against the opposite wall, and fell through with a shriek. "HEY!"

Theresa nearly burst with laughter, while Michelle looked startled that the girl had gone straight through the wall. Shellee stepped down next to Sarah, "Are you all right?"

'Of course I am,' Sarah thought nastily, 'I just went straight through a supposedly solid wall and hit my head on the otherside, I'm just peachy!' "Yes," She stated flatly, "I'm perfectly fine!" She stood and dusted off her clothing.

Theresa passed her with a smug smirk and spat, "I guess you're clothing decided to return to the dirt it came from."

Sarah looked on evily as Theresa went through. Lord knows how those two managed to hate each other soo much in such a short period of time. It's probably because they're so much alike. Shellee shook her head and prayed for holy guidance as Michelle shook her head sadly. "You all belong in the looney bin!" Michelle muttered as she followed Theresa.

Shellee stared in the direction her younger sister went, and gaped. "WHAT? I DIDN'T EVEN DO ANYTHING!"
