Flying Free

"Have you ever thought of flying? Have you ever imagined soaring through the skies with the wind behind your ears and the sun shining on your glistening wings? Have you ever thought of exploring and discovering things that other wingless people can't do, all because they can't fly?

"If yes, alright, then stop it. Stop with your little fantasies and throw them away. It's not that good of an idea. Trust me. I should know."

Ezra Giles has been living his life anxiously and with fear for nearly eighteen years, all because of the wings on his back. In a world where people having wings are a thing, society is bound to collapse at any given second, the government is full of greedy beef-wits who just want money, and the population is composed of sadistic maniacs who want a trophy on their walls and will do anything in their power to get it even if it leaves their hands a tad dirty, it's a hard knock life for anyone who has wings on their backs. After losing his parents to the harsh thing called reality, getting himself humiliated and exposed in his class, Ezra knows there's only one thing he can do: run! And so he did.

He is constantly on the move, but he knows he can't run forever. His life is no longer safe, but a group of people are trying to change that, not just for him, but for all those who are oppressed out there.
