Flying Freedom (ON HOLD)

Chapter 15

We walk out, ready to face whatever's there. Our faces are steeled, no one showing how they feel. Well, I'm the last to go out.

"Dash! Wait!" I hear from behind me. I turn, and get pulled into a giant hug. Ahhhh I'm going to miss him. "Please tell me you aren't really going," Preston adds. I sigh.

"Yes, I am. We all are," I say, looking behind me, seeing all of my friends getting hugs as well. Twi has Rob (like I totally didn't see that coming) and Jackie has Jerome. Awwwww how cute! J and J! Jackie would kill me if she knew what I just thought. Peony has Lachlan, while Unicity is with Adam. Poor Flit - she doesn't have a 'special someone'. Well, she never wanted it in the first place, soooooooo yeah. We all pull away, nodding at each other. Preston still has his arms around me.

"I'm really going to miss you," he says into my shirt. I know he feels my wings beneath my shirt. (A/N For those of you who are love fanatics out there, noooo it's NOT what you're thinking). "Be careful out there," Preston says, looking at me. "Not only on general," he adds, patting my back. I blush.

"Thanks, Preston. That makes me feel better," I say. It does actually. Mitch comes out the door, his eyes flashing in someway unreadable. Is he - is he jealous? I thought he wanted us to go... whatever.

"Come on, Dash," Jackie yells. Oops, they're ahead.

"Bye, Preston," I sigh, kissing him on the cheek. Now it's his turn to blush. I run off, catching up with my friends. When we're far enough away, Twi nods to Peony. She grabs my bags away from me.

"Wait, Peony, that's - HEY!" I yell as I'm pulled by Twi. Then, she and Flit take my arms, and start flying. I'm lifted into the air with them, and soon I'm laughing. This is fun! Twi uses her magic to take off my jacket and let it go, where Unicity catches it, giving me a thumbs up. I stretch my wings, and for a moment it seems like I'm flying on my own. I catch the wind, and it feels great. It's too bad I can't glide, but my wing is hurt. Man, that's really going to bother me. Flying is how I let loose my energy. Without doing it..... well, I actually don't know how I'll handle it. After all, I got my wings only a few days ago... Twi must know what I'm thinking about.

"If you want, I could try a simple healing spell on your wings," she suggests. Ummmm is that safe? "Yes, it IS safe," she adds. Wow! Does she read minds? That'd be awesome!!!

"Uh, sure, I guess," I hesitantly sigh. Flit and Twi set me down. I stand still, a bit nervous. What if something goes wrong? I'm sure it won't. Twi is one of your best friends. She'll make sure it'll be okay. I didn't notice until now, but my eyes are closed.

"Uh, Dash? I finished," Twi laughs. Oh. I open my eyes, and join in. Soon, we're all on the ground. Again. When we quiet down, I brush off my clothes. Might as well test to see if the spell worked. Flapping my wings, I don't feel any ache. When I rise into the air, I yell, clutching my wing. My friends immediately come over, concerned. I just laugh. And laugh, and laugh. When they realize it's a joke, they look a bit upset, but nonetheless join in.

"Don't worry, your spell worked awesomely," I giggle, hugging Twi. I whisper something to Flit and Twi, while the others are confused. We hand them our luggage. At first, they are angry, but aren't when they learn what we are going to do. I hold Jackie under her arms, and we lift off. Luckily, no one is outside, so we are free to fly lower to the ground. When we get rather close to the airport, the ride is over. It took us more time than we expected, getting here. Anyone else would have taken a cab, or something, but we wanted to have fun. I just hope we didn't miss our flight. We rush to where you get dropped off, and run inside. Ohhhh yeah, security. Great, we'll be having the time of our lives. You know, it really is soooo fun waiting in line for a half an hour, right??? At least the line moves. But it takes FOREVER.

-----

Finally, we are done with security. I look at the time. Our plans leaves innnnn... five minutes. WHAT?!?!?

"Lez goooo!!!" I yell. We run as fast a we can, hoping to get there in time. 3 minutes! Two minutes!!! One!!!! We reach the gate right as they're about to close it. Whew. Made it. I hand the woman our tickets, panting. At least we got there in time. We walk through the tunnel, onto the plane.

"I call window seat!!!" Twi yells. People stare at us. Whatever.

"Me too!!!!" I shout, claiming the one between the others. Twi sits behind me, and Flit is next to her. Jackie is next to me. In front of me is Peony and Unicity. I look out the window, watching the trees in the distance sway to the breeze. It really was nice here in LA. However, that Tims has ended. Now, we go back to Sundale high.

I have a contest - I don't know where they live.... I know their school, but that's really it. Please tell me where they should be - a state in the USA, or Canada? If Canada, it'd be around Montreal or Vancouver (sorry, but that place is awesome. I've never been there, but I want to). So please tell me where it should be - a state I or Canada. Don't forget to slap dat like button and show some support!!! Check out these radical people:
