Wings Of Destiny

Twenty-one

Jay's POV

Me and Lily walked along the the creek while she talked.

"We need four elemental spirits to help us get to Stardew," she said.

"But does Charlotte have them?"

"The henchmen for Lord Drake can get there anytime they want," she replied. Darwin snorted beside her. "I know you want to see Tekken again, and we will," she whispered, stroking his head.

I took out the book about wings and looked at the table of contents. I skimmed through until I saw this:

"The use of wings"

the book said. I flipped the pages until I found the chapter. It said you had to have enough of the feeling depending on your wing color. There was a color chart to go with it.

Red- DETERMINATION
Yellow- JUSTICE
Green- KINDNESS
Purple- PERSEVERANCE
Black- HATE
Blue- INTEGRITY
Light blue- PATIENCE
Orange- BRAVERY
White- LOVE

"Wow. There is a lot of types of wings. Mine is DETERMINATION, I guess." I showed the chart to Lily, and apparently she needed KINDNESS to fuel her wings. The book also said if you have a blend of colors, you would need all of those feelings to fly.

"So, Charlotte needs... HATE to fuel her wings?" I asked nervously. "Oh, she's never even used her wings before. I sometimes use them to fly on the roof to look at the stars."

"Oh, that's nice. My dad also needs HATE to power his. I've never seen him use them though," I said with a sigh of relief. "I hope we can just find those spirits so we can save Marshal. I wonder how he's doing right now..."

"I'm sure he's okay. I don't think Charlotte would hurt him."

"But, what about Lord Drake? Will he hurt him?" I asked anxiously. "I'm sure they're using him to find you," she said. "I'm not sure how long we can keep going like this, though."

"Hey, can I ask you something?" I said.

"Sure."

"Did any of your other friends have wings?"

"... Yes. One did."
