Angelina

------------------•I•-----------------

"Oh wait! so I'm supposed to..."

"No I said spread your wings not.....NO! not that way."

"Then How? "

"That way, look. Do like I do." I spread my pair of Ivory wings, like I did every time I escaped Angelina. But unlike me, Andrew never did.

He did like I said, his two times bigger wings fills the blank space of Angelina's castle roof.

"Jump." I said. "Go ahead." I motioned for him to jump, he turned and looked at me.

"Are you mad?"

"No really, I'm pretty chill. Now jump. What did you expect to fly over the borders without actually flying?"

He just shrugged, "So I'm actually supposed to jump?" He asked.

"Nah I was merely jesting," I felt his tense shoulder relax, "Yes you dimwit, now jump."

"Alright, right." He straightened his form, leaned forward and looked at the distance between the roof and the ground. He cringed for an instant, but then masked his discomfort, but still I could see through him. Seriously the twins were much easier than that!

When he was just about to jump as if he was gonna jump in a pool or anything like that, and if he did so he was going to die --too much for being the realm's future king.

"Look when you jump, flap you're wings rapidly, like a lot so you won't land and break a couple of bones." I flinched at the fact. Something inside me told me this isn't going to end well.

"Okay." taking a deep breath, I counted.

"1"

"2"

"3"

He jumped into the air, he jumped like I did, like the twins did. I saw the fear in his eyes, but it was normal when you're trying to chase gravity for the first time. I wholeheartedly blame my father for not giving the regular angels lessons about how to fly or any of that. The only Angels who knew how to were the Military archangels.

Because, you know, when the Demons attack, at least they must know how to fly since most of the feuds take place In Nowhere. Unfortunately, we always lose the feud to them, and that leads to alot-- and by alot I mean ALOT-- of gone angels.

Since Andrew was not In military age yet-- alas, he doesn't know how to fly. yet.

I looked down and saw a pair of Ivory wings fluttering in the air, but they were being pulled down by gravity. He did nothing to chase them up.

I kept looking waiting for him to rise like the tide, but he was still being hauled down.

"Come on Andy, c'mon, you can do it."

He was now nearby the grounds of the castle, still nothing, the more he got closer the more my heart leaped. Still no progress.

I automatically shut my eyes and covered them with both my hands, praying he'll make it like I did. Like we did. I mean if Ashton can do it then so can Andrew. but that was wrong, because a second later came an agony screech.

"AAAHH!" A earth-shattering howl filled the silence of the castle.

Without thinking I immediately jumped from the roof towards him. I landed safely on the grounds, then ran swiftly towards him.
