(Still in Enya's pov as it's still her part of the story ❤️)
As my talons hit the crunchy ground I switched back to myself and watched as a human, probably a filthy hunter judging by the hungry glint in their eyes, slowly walked into the clearing. I raised my hand to wave a greeting and quickly realised I'd forgotten to put my clothes back on. I assumed that was why his eyes were so wide all of a sudden until I felt the heavy heat of my wings still laying on my shoulders.
I froze like a deer in headlights as they walked over and offered a palm to me, "Hello sweetheart, I'm not going to hurt you. Your wings are just beautiful and I have no clue why anybody would want to damage such a pretty little specimen."
He spoke with a soft tone that caused me to almost melt like putty in his hands with pure relief I had found someone that would like me the way I was. I let my wings fold neatly and took his hand, the feverish heat instantly warming his cold flesh as I frowned at how cold he was. I opened my arms to offer a hug to warm him up and he gladly excepted. Then my brain registered what he had said, 'specimen'.
I felt cold steel stab into the back of my throat and screamed in my own head, my vocal cords having being sliced. Chocking on my own blood I saw blurred flames burst up around my body and an odd weightless feeling as tounges of warmth licked up my body and a charred figured dropped to the ground with a scream before I finally blacked out.
The first thing I felt was heat, then I smelt burnt flesh, then tasted blood, and finally opened my tired eyes to see burnt grass under my face and a splatter of red on it. I shakily got to my feet and kicked the charred body beside me into a ditch. I tried to speak but nothing came out, I was now completely mute; a bird with no song left to sing...
(336 words! Sorry for the gore, I was just really trying to get something out for you guys. Don't forget to comment your opinion on this rushed chapter, it really helps ❤️)
