Thunder
As the tempest roc rose, Rain's confidence plummeted.
Where was Ozzy?
He couldn't see his teammate, but he could see the mana gathering in the roc, accumulating in its throat.
"SKREEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
Rain was stunned as the roc screeched louder than anything he'd ever heard. The pain was extraordinary until there was a sudden, sharp spike pain it and the sound ceased completely. Seconds later, he felt something warm dripping down his chin.
His eardrums had burst, he realized, and it was his own blood now dripping down his neck.
A moment later, a more familiar pain took hold as he recognized the touch of Cassie's healing. Before he could get his bearings, however, a sudden burst of light blinded him from above, and the pain of healing crawled into his eyes as Cassie kept her spell active.
