Today, Aerrow was so silent that Dark Ace had almost forgotten he was there. Concentrating on doing sit-ups, he was almost surprised when he heard the sky knight's voice, low and serious.
"You asked me once… if I had ever wanted something so badly that I could taste it …"
Dark Ace grunted. Aerrow continued.
"Well… I have."
Dark Ace stopped, turning his attention to Aerrow with an amused expression.
"Seven years ago…"
Aerrow raked his hands through his hair. He looked at Dark Ace, eyes haunted with new understanding. "Seven years ago… I wanted to be a sky knight."
