Chapter 4

I screamed. Well, I guess it wasn't a scream as much as it was a screech. I mean, think about it, a falcon can't really scream. As I looked down I noticed that Elliot was out of my line of vision, considering the fact that peregrine falcons have spectacular eyesight. I hunched into the position for a perfect dive. My eyes watered as I reached speeds up to two hundred forty miles per hour. Elliot had finally come in my line of vision. He was clearly out cold. I had to go faster if I wanted to catch him before he hit the ground. Plus since he still had the glacier on top of him, it would kill him under the impact. I glanced to my left to see that Jack and Carter had the same idea as me. We had to hurry though, at the rate he was going, Elliot would be killed in less than fifteen seconds.
