Flight

Horizon was mad.

The supernatural world that Kara had grown to love and respect had gone off the deep end. Making deals with the Netherworld was like asking the wolf not to eat the scrumptious little rabbit. It was a contradiction. It didn’t make sense. Horizon and the Netherworld had been at war with each other since the beginning of time. It was the ongoing ancient battle between good and evil, light and darkness. And now the light was letting the darkness in. It was preposterous, infuriating, and yet it was happening.

When Kara had first heard the news, she had been confused and shocked. But her confusion soon boiled into an uncontrollable, white-hot anger. The only way she would make it through the up-coming meeting without losing her temper and cutting a few higher demons would be to get out. Get out and fly.

Kara kicked off hard and let the wind cool her hot temper. She soared high above the outskirts of Green Bay, Wisconsin, and practiced maneuvering with her newly formed wings until flying seemed second nature, anything to keep her mind off the ridiculous notion of making a deal with the devils. She stroked with her wings, again and again, until the city had disappeared beneath her, and she was alone in the sky.

She aimed for the clouds. And like a runner in thick fog, she could feel the vapor on her face as she flew through them. Like a great eagle, she glided above the clouds that hid her from mortal eyes and relaxed for the first time since the archangels Metatron and Ariel had told her about their arrangement with the higher demons.

She knew it was stupid and reckless to be out in full view for all mortal eyes to see, but she didn’t care. Why should she care what the legion thought anyway? She wasn’t the one siding with the enemy—they were. Besides, it was nearly dark out, and she didn’t remember reading any rules about not being allowed to fly above the mortal world. Her wings were too new, and too unusual, for any decrees to have been written just yet.

And she was going to take advantage of it.

Her mind was in hyper-drive. She was so angry she wanted to scream. She had to focus elsewhere, and she concentrated on flying.

Flight was a constant learning curve. She wasn’t born with wings, and there was no one to teach her, no petty officer to show her the ropes. She was on her own. She needed to practice as much as she could. It required a lot of effort just to support her weight at such a high altitude, and it would take many hours of flying to fly efficiently, let alone to defend herself and to attack.

However, right now she needed to clear her head. She had to forget this new pact with the Netherworld because she was losing her concentration. And it took loads of concentration not to plummet to the ground below.

And yet, as hard as she tried, the events of the recent meeting kept crawling back into her head.
