The boy lies still on his mattress, one hand draped over the side. His black hair is sweaty and matted to his forehead, and occasionally he utters a word.

His blue eyes open, and he takes a shuddering breath. He quickly sits up, only to slam his head into the top bed's underside. Eyes wide, he stares intently at us, seemingly examining Clove and I.

I feel my wings shiver. This person is dangerous.

I reach forward a little and say quietly, "Are you okay?"

He winces slightly, and my hand jerks backward. Clove holds out her hand, whispering, "I'm Clove... What's your name?"

Slowly, he takes Clove's hand and says, "Um... Ash. Ash Hise."

Ash's jet black wings spread behind him.

Clove nods and says something to Ash, but I'm not listening. He gets up and swings open the thick black curtains.

He gazes at something for a few moments, then turns.

Feet slamming onto the ground, he stomps out of the room.

I hear a click and a muffled shriek.

Then there's a thud on the ground.

"Oh no."
