Flying Luna... and a Frightening Realisation

Katie expected the eagles' talons to be rough and bring her bruises and squeezed her eyes shut, waiting for them to roughly yank her from the balcony. To her surprise, however, her feet left the ground before she felt any significant pressure on her arms.

Peeking through one eye, she found they had long taken off from the balcony. When she did though, her second eye opened as well, taking in the marvel before her.

She had long left the balcony and was gracefully soaring higher into the sky. The feeling of breaking free of the restraints of gravity washed a wave of excitement through her.

She looked up at the eagles, musing over their graceful wing strokes that swiftly carried them up without seeming like a burden in the slightest. The two majestic kings of the skies flapped their wings in perfect sync and soared through the air calmly. Their grip on her hands was soft and barely perceptible.
