Snippet #1591553

Rocky stared stupefied as everyone dropped to the ground, and the angel approached. He knew it. He had known it all along. hey had been after them. Rocky stared as the battle went on around him. Usually, he wouldn't be so scared, but thought of Shaylin being in trouble had suddenly thrown everything out of whack. What would he do if she got hurt? He tried to fight, to move, to breathe, but it was like something had snapped a hold of him. With everything going on, everyone getting hurt, he could feel his front slipping.

He blinked as the the black feathers engulfed him, and opened his eyes to see his home. He hadn't realized how much he had missed it. He stood up and looked at the girls, watching their reactions, and listened as Satariel explained how dangerous the Dark Kingdom was. He laughed when Shaylin said the place was awesome, a part of him wanting to transform so he could show her how cool he was, a part of him wanting to yell at her for not taking it seriously, a part of him wanting to hug her for still being alive.

All in all, his brains wasn't really there. Deep down, Rocky was still panicking. How could he figure out what they were going to do? What would he do if they came after them? What will he do about Satariel's parents? Or Incendia's? Or Rocky's own father? What would the girls eat? Where would they sleep? What would they wear? How were they going to keep their true identities hidden?

Rocky's brow furrowed as he tried to figure it all out. He wasn't sure what they were going to do, but he could now was agree with Satariel. "He's right. It's extremely dangerous here. Do not talk to anyone unless we say it's safe, and please don't run off your own. Their are monsters here way worse than what you just witnessed..."He paused for a moment, hoping he wasn't scaring them. "We'll keep you safe."
