Darkness and shadows draped over the room, and moonlight flood in through a window. The room lacked heating making it just as cold as outside. Dynamis stared out the window seeing the low but lovely brightness of the night, but he had one problem, a fresh and bleeding cut etched across his face. The lack of heating made the room as cold as the outside. Dynamis could see his breath fog in front of his mouth.

Dynamis could hear his father wipe off something in the kitchen judging from the squeaking outside the room, wiping off a knife. Dynamis knew what his father wiped off that knife, the blood from that cut on his face, Dynamis' father's idea of a punishment. He gently tapped on that cut wincing when his finger made contact. Dynamis started to think of some way to get out of the room his father locked him in after several frantic and failed attempts to bust out.

A risky idea floated in Dynamis' head for while. Dynamis took a deep breath, and he smacked the window. A crack trickled on the glass slowly spreading on a small portions of the glass. Dynamis knocked on the glass again, and a shard of glass flung off landing nearby on the floor.

"Mmm..." Dynamis blinked a few times elbowing the glass window. Glass on the window partly fell off, and Dynamis gave the glass one more strike. The glass shattered falling to the ground crumbling into sharp and dangerous pieces. Dynamis gradually and carefully picked the glass pieces until a hole he could crawl through formed.

Dynamis crawled through a jagged hole. Glass pinched Dynamis' robe and skin, and he grunted falling out the first floor window crashing to the ground with a loud thud.

Dynamis' father noticed the sound on the in the front of the house, and he opened the door. The wind blew things around in the house, and snow fluttered in. Dynamis' father shouted, "Dynamis! Get in here!" Dynamis gulped as he stiffened and ran down the sidewalk flapping his wings and flying away. The cloak of darkness caused Dynamis' father to find it hard to pinpoint his son, and Dynamis escaped from the grasp of his father, for now.

Snow, snow, and more snow along with hail pelted on Dynamis as he speeded through the nighttime sky. The shimmer of the moon and stars poked from the clouds.

Snow and ice encased the town in cold, and Dynamis shook in flight shivering spreading the snow that the clouds released. Dynamis' flight didn't produce any sound silently fluttering around gracefully.

Yuki's house crept into Dynamis' vision, and Dynamis slid on the roof slipping slightly on the ice-covered roof. Dynamis leaned over the ledge of the roof seeing Yuki in his room sleeping on his bed. Dynamis sighed feeling the warmth on the other side of the glass.

A clang on his window woke Yuki up. Yuki put on his glasses stumbling to the window, "What the? Dynamis?!" Yuki blinked seeing Dynamis hovering next to the window. Dynamis knocked on the window, and Yuki opened his window. The ocean blue curtains on Yuki's window shuttered and flowed wanting to fling away from the window wrapping Yuki in fabric.

"Ah! Windy!" Yuki straightened his hair putting up his arms trying to force the curtains out of his face. Dynamis zipped in through the window.

Yuki closed the window with his teeth still chattering, "C-can... y-you stay at you house?" Yuki turned on his lamp with a shocking sight reaching his eyes, "What happened to your face?! There's a massive cut on it!"

"You do not want to know," Dynamis laid down on his side and closing his eyes. "But I can tell you it happened at... home..." Dynamis sighed closing his eyes.

"What?!" Yuki exclaimed. "What's going on in your house?!"

"Again, you do not want to know," Dynamis curled up under the rug enjoying the warmth of the carpet. "Now good night..." Dynamis yawned before falling asleep.

Yuki sighed, "Okay, you can sleep here, but you have to get out of here before 8:00AM when my parents come in here to wake me up." He founded that Dynamis already snored snuggling under the carpet on the floor tucking in his wings. Yuki jumped in his bed and took off his glasses after he turned off the lights sighing face-palming, "Good night to you to."

Dynamis subconsciously smiled in his sleep, and Yuki soon dozed off.


The next morning, Dynamis cracked opened his eyes waking up stretching and yawning. He glance at the clock, 4:30AM. Dynamis opened the window but unfortunately for Yuki, forgot to close it when he dropped out propelling him over the newly fallen snow making the sheet of snow all over the place in mounds of frozen water.

Most of the visible water froze solid into ice, and a lake Dynamis soared by had a seemingly thick layer of ice scattered across it. Dynamis flew further into town where he found the police force looking for something, and Dynamis could see a picture of him in their hands starting to eavesdrop in them. The police didn't know that their target currently watched them search for him.

An officer grumbled, "This picture from video on the phone is really bad quality."

"It's still usable."

"Shouldn't we be working on something else?"

"Not much going on at the moment except for a freaked out public."

Dynamis shook his head taking off and flapping himself away in the air not making much sound but for a barely audible rustle that got lost in the wind. The clouds decided to give up on shedding snow and recovering from the loss of snow over night but still the wrong day to look for animals.


Yuki woke up at 7:00AM. His eyes widened in horror after he shoved on his glasses as he saw the open window letting the wind blow in the snow, "Dynamis?!" Yuki found Dynamis gone and replaced by a clump of feathers. "He must've flown out." Yuki shut the window, straitened his curtains, and threw the litter of feathers in the trashcan.

"Uh... Oh Dynamis..." Yuki collapsed back into bed and somewhat threw his glasses on the nightstand lightly snoozing for the next few minutes before his mom opened the door to his bedroom. She had brown hair like Yuki's, green eyes, and slightly pale skin, and she wore a yellow night-gown.

"Yuki," She giggled. "It's time to wake up." She saw the snow surrounding the window groaning, "Did the wind open the window? I'll clean that up later. Yuki, there only a few more weeks until winter break! Come one!" She chuckled lifting the blanket off Yuki.

"Okay, okay, I'm awake," Yuki put on his glasses.

Yuki's mom dragged him out of bed and to the bathroom grinning, "Then brush your teeth and get dressed. Come downstairs for breakfast after that."

"I know," Yuki grabbed his regular cloths and locked the bathroom door. Yuki opened the door a few minutes later and rushed downstairs for breakfast.


Later, Dynamis leaned against a wall in the alley observing people through the field of shadows when he noticed Yuki walking to school with his mom. Dynamis waved at Yuki, and Yuki waved back. "What are you waving at?" Yuki's mom asked.

"Oh, I think I saw something," Yuki responded winking at Dynamis. Dynamis winked back smiling and stepping backwards to become less visible. Yuki could almost hear Dynamis' voice in the wind, "See you some time Yuki..."
