Chapter 53
Never to leave again!
Thoughts of never seeing his father again caused a pain to rip across his chest. The harsh ache caused his body to buckle and thrash wildly, until he lost control of his wings.
He began to fall.
Like a giant bird, he soared downward.
Turning, twisting.
The wind pushing at his back.
He passed through a thick mass of thunderclouds, and the sky became black. Lightning from an electrical storm sizzled through the sky, missing him by mere inches. Thunder cracked and shook the atmosphere. He continued to fall, his body turning, his arms and legs flailing. His wings were ripped from his back, and rain fell in sheets, soaking his body.
Everything went black.
