Pseok: "Do you really think i would let you fall?" He mumbled to himself, "Higher would probably be safer, more time to catch you if you did." He spoke up again. "I hope you're better at this than Roland was."
And then he beat his wings, ran across the large hospital carpark a short distance and took off, soaring up into the sky until he reached level with the top of some of the larger buildings in the city. Pseok swung around and flew out from the town heading south, exulting in the feeling of freedom and gradually moving higher through the air, as if to test his boundaries. He swung northwards across the city, where in his mind he saw the cold mountains, the empty air where the days were short the sun was cool and prey was easy to find. He screeched, long and shrill as he remembered all he'd lost.
He looked down at the town. Ambulances from Los Santos were now just arriving and it was starting to look very busy down there. He turned west to face the mountain that the city sat on. He called to Dave.
Pseok: "I'm gonna land there, the town's too busy now and I don't really want to go back in the dark with lots of cars and people moving around."
He flew down and landed on a reasonably wide, even space on the mountainside and allowed Dave to get off. "We can stay here till it gets lighter, or I guess I could fly you down outside the town and you could walk back in."

Elfair looked up as a shadow passed over her. What was it? In the dark it had ben indistinct, but she felt it had been to big to be just a bird, and it had flown low and sliently. Curiosity got the better of her. Pushing the body of the sheep back into the hollow she wrapped her cloak around her and climbed swiftly up the mountainside, as quietly as a ghost.
