Survivors

"Shouldn't I have the wings right under my knee?" George complained as he tried to find a stable grip on Snow's back.

"That will arrive once you get your Aduns," Khan laughed while taking George's arms and wrapping them around his waist. "I only want to make sure that you won't panic once one of these goes crazy."

"How are you supposed to do that?" George shouted as worry filled his voice.

"By making you experience the crazy!" Khan announced before patting Snow's neck. "Get me to the envoy."

"I'm not sure this is a goo-," George wanted to complain again, but Snow suddenly flapped its wings and rose into the air.

George instinctively tightened his grip on Khan's waist. He did the same with his legs, but both Snow and his friend turned to glare at him.

"Aduns are pretty sensitive," Khan explained while knocking on George's right knee. "I know it feels unstable, but you must relax there. Snow might decide to make you fall otherwise."
