His eyes lifted to the sky every now and then. He didn't really feel the urge to fly, though. He hadn't found a love of flying, had only ever done it with Amber. Umbra.
And he never sees her around anymore.
So his eyes would fall right back down again. Straight ahead. Or to Kali tucked under his wing, nosing her gently, if a little absently. Just wanted to keep her comfortable, loved, cared for. Until they could get home again and see Mom and Kylin, Reilly. Baddie. The family. It felt like it'd been forever, though it'd only been a few days. A long damn few days.
hi, she brushed across his thoughts, her voice a little rough, a little small. His head turned and he looked down at her, softened his grey eyes for her with a smile. Hi, Kali.
Are you okay, Khari?
Hm. He didn't answer that right away, looking ahead again. Then he nodded, only because there were no strangers nearby to see him nodding himself. Just miss Kylin. And everyone. It had always been him and Kylin though. It was damn hard to be away from your twin, even when he had been trying to put distance between them. Since getting caught... Well. This wasn't the distance he'd been working for.
Either way, it sucked, though.
He turned another smile to her, another sweet nudge to her cheek. We'll be home soon though. I bet Mom misses you.
But the closer they got, the deeper he frowned. There was no Reilly, no baby Baddie, no Mom. And the nearer and nearer they got... his feet grew heavier, heart grew heavier. Until he came to a slow stop.
Dad? ...Something isn't right. We're home but... Nobody's here. But there's a bunch of strangers. And he was getting more worried, more tense, as he continued. His wing tightened around Kali, shielding her up tight against his side, eyes watchful.
They knew what strangers meant. They'd had strangers before.
He should take Kali away.
