I shot off across the bridge, heading straight toward the Sky Village where I felt Kage's chakra. Vaulting and maneuvering across rooftops, my eyes glanced down below to the terrified civilians of the village trying their best to get to safety.
An old man being carried by two younger ones with his leg at an angle. A woman standing in the middle of a road screaming a name over and over into the smoke. A whole crowd of them jammed into the mouth of a shrine. My face scrunched up in dismay but I pushed my thoughts away.
'Kage where are you?!'
And then I finally saw him, threading between two towers with his wings half-folded, black as a hole in the sky. He was in one piece, wings and limbs still thankfully attached. However, there was black iron round Kage's neck with a plate at the front and a glowing blue seal burned into the plate.
I got two buildings closer and his name nearly skipped past my lips till my eyes widened at the figure on his back.
A man with long spikey white hair, the only other one alive left in this gods forsaken village with hair as white as snow.
My father. He was riding Kage.
Fury and rage bubbled in the pit of my gut, as I instinctively bit my thumb and slammed my palm down onto the tiles before I had decided anything at all.
"Summoning Jutsu."
Smoke burst forward and a large crimson dragon burst free tanking over half my chakra.
Akai came out of it with his wings already out and his head already turning, and I got a hand on the armored ridges of his back.
"Tenshi?"
"Akai, get me to Kage," I ordered.
He took one look at the Sky Village in chaos, eyes zoning in on Kage and my father in the distance tearing into a freed dragon.
"Well I be damned," Akai said gruffly, his clawed fist pounding into the other with a grin.
"I've always wanted an excuse to kick that black wings ass."
I held on tight as he launched up in the air and Akai attacked from above and drove him down through four hundred feet of air into the roof of a building. The whole thing came apart in a cloud of dust and grain and tile, and the two of them came up out of it locked together in a fit of claws and teeth.
