A First class view(Part-3)

Ryan felt like he was floating in the cloud, then a splitting headache hit him along with the distant shouts of "Ryan! Ryan!..", came to his ears the sound was rapidly fading away.

'Ryan…. who is this, Ryan?'

'Ah, I remember I am Ryan, but I feel so tired let me sleep.'

Host life in Danger.

Taking preventive measures.

Awakening the Host.

Ryan woke with a gasp as a shudder went down his spine, as he looked forward he frowned, 'Huh why are the trees getting smaller and smaller and are those clouds?'

His confusion then turned to fear as he could not move at all as if something was holding him down, as he somehow managed to turn his head and gawked at the reason he was a few thousand meters above the ground and was rising at an incredible space, the reason he was held in a way that he could not move at all.

He was held by a giant 'eagle���, giant enough to carry him effortlessly without any problem and it was carrying him further and further away from the ground.

'Huh, how did I get into such a situation? Which God did I offend to be cursed with such wonderful luck?'

 As he was having a sudden bout of depression pain shot through his body making him wince at that, "Status", he all but whispered lowly, not too eager to draw any attention to the bird.

'At least I am healing, albeit slowly but still healing. From the ache in my body, I know that I might have broken a few of my bones, and if they are all healed as well it would be great.'

Michalina arrived at the clearing or what looked like a warzone and in the middle of which lay the broken remnants of a trailer, the front part of were destroyed, and by its side lay a giant carcass of a beast, her heartbeat increased unable to spot any of her comrades nearby when a sound of gun firing drew her attention.

Michalina did not waste any time as she dashed towards the location of the sound as she arrived there she stumbled upon seeing the defeated form of Nikita and Dasyra.

Seeing Michalina in front of her Nikita tore her mask off her face as she looked at her, her eyes full of sorrow, as she spoke in a mournful voice, "Michalina I am sorry, I am so sorry I lost your brother."

Michalina was stunned for a moment she spoke slowly, "Where is Ryan? Where is my brother?"

Nikita gulped she could feel Michalina's anger directed towards her, an unpleasant Michalina was a trigger happy Michalina, even Dasyra gulped feeling the tension in the air.

Jessica quickly made her way and stood beside Michalina ready to stop her from acting foolishly as she spoke, "Nikita, Doc what happened? We heard your emergency message and came here as soon as possible so what happened? And please start from the very beginning."

Nikita took a deep breath as she began to speak, "The trailer held against the enemy well, we had managed to deal with them when an all of sudden a strange-looking boar attacked us."

"A corrupted Erymanthian Piglet.", Dasyra helpfully supplied.

Nikita looked at her with disbelief on her face as she spoke, "That was a piglet?"

As Dasyra nodded a voice came to her ears, "How did you kill it Dasyra?"

The voice was extremely familiar to her making her whip her head towards the speaker as she began, "My Lady…"

Only to stop as Ylerias raised her hand to stop her as she spoke, "Dasyra how did manage to kill it?"

Dasyra composed herself as she spoke, "My Lady I was not the one who killed it, it was Ryan who managed to deal with it, he tripped the creature by tying its legs in such a manner that it stumbled by tying its legs while it was charging, as a result, the piglet stumbled and broke its neck then Ryan killed it by using weapon by firing it on the beast's eye."

Ylerias nodded with an impressed look on her face as Nikita continued, "Ryan killed it but it seemed that we missed one of the enemies, the enemy then fired an RPG at him, the RPG detonated near him causing him to be flung a good distance from the corpse and then…", Nikita bit her lips thinking about how to break the news to Michalina.

Seeing her hesitation Dasyra spoke, after all, there was nothing to gain by stalling the truth, "We dealt with the enemy but there was another creature present that we failed to spot and as a result, Ryan was snatched by a 'Roc'."

Michalina was speechless as Ylerias bore a face full of sadness as Dasyra spoke with a tired sigh, "We tried, we tried so hard but the 'Roc' was too fast."

"Which way did the Roc fly off with Ryan?"

 Michlina's voice seemed to be devoid of emotion while Jessica balled her fist, as Ylerias intervened quickly, ��You are not trying to go after him on foot are you?"

Michalina shook her head as she spoke, "No I am not we have means of travel, and I will go after my brother as soon as possible."

Meanwhile, Ryan was looking down at the earth below, to him, it was mesmerizing to look at the thick green vegetation, the glistening water bodies was both picturesque as well as something he wished never to forget.

'I cannot wait to build a plane or a copter, maybe I should try to make that gyrocopter, it might be unreliable but still, such scenery is worth the risk, if it were not a predator that is trying to eat me I would rate it as a fast class view from a third rate airlines.'

He had been flying for some time courtesy of what he had dubbed as the 'eagle' Air', to Ryan the bird looks like an 'eagle', a Tier 5 creature, could he kill it of course but unfortunately for him he was suspended in the air a few thousand meters above ground and he was sure that a fall from such a height would kill him.

'It will try to kill me and if I am not wrong it will put me down on its nest then I will make my move, better get ready.'

Ryan closed his eyes as he glossed over his inventory as he pursued his lips, 'Hmm, I have enough ammunition a few hundred rounds for my rifle and near about a hundred for my revolver, and my sword I will survive my jour…..', his eye widens momentarily as he looked up and down his inventory.

'Where is my rifle?', he panicked for a moment before realization struck him like a speeding truck as he could not help but shout out, "DID I DROP UP RIFLE!!!!!"

All his shout did was make the giant 'eagle' screech as it increased its speed as it climbed up even faster and higher.

Ryan was hit by about if dizziness as all of sudden his ears hurt a lot because of the sudden increase of altitude and speed as he finally managed to look down, and what greeted him a giant dam and a city by its side.

Angela made her way towards her commander she approached her she handed her a gun as she spoke, "Michlina I found Ryan's gun."

Michalina tensed even more as she took her brother's weapon in her hand as she spoke with a tinge of fear in her voice, "That means he only has his revolver and sword."

Ryan looked at the 'eagle' which had suddenly stopped and then all of a sudden it let Ryan go, Ryan's eyes widen momentarily at that before he snarled in anger, 'This bird is trying to kill him by making him fall to his death like I will let it happen.'

Ryan flung his right hand as an ethereal looking chain appeared which wrapped itself around the 'eagle' leg becoming solid all of a sudden.

The creature screeched in surprised as its leg was wrapped by a chain, which was held by a grinning Ryan.

'Got you now, let me climb up.', with that he began to pull himself up the chain only for the 'eagle' to suddenly screech as it began to move in various ways to shake him off, while Ryan held the chain tightly fearing his life.

The 'eagle' took a sudden turn as it tried to take a bite off him, only to clash against Ryan's sword which enraged it further, then it gave a painful screech as Ryan managed to cut a portion of the right-wing.

"Take that you overgrown bird.", a shout full of confidence came from Ryan only for his face to morph into terror as his attack hampered with the creature's ability to fly as it went down towards the ground.

A second chain appeared as it wrapped around the creature's neck while Ryan took a seat on its back, as it fell, although it tried hard to stay afloat in the air at the end of the day it only managed to slow its descend, it came down near the city centre, as it hit the tallest building that had somehow managed to keep standing even though it leaned at an angle dangerous and it hit the roof hard, where Ryan decided to abandon it.

The creature collided on the roof letting out a horrifying and pain-filled screech as its bones broke but it was not enough to stop its momentum as it went down even further towards the street below, Ryan was lucky that he had the chain as it was because of it, he was spared from at least a hundred meters drop.

'Saved.', was the thought that came into his head only for his face to gain a look of horror as he gazed at the screeching 'eagle' was being swarmed by various beasts as it was being torn and eaten out alive, the sheer number and strength of the creatures below made him gulp hard, 'Damn I fell from the frying pan into the fire.'
