Himeko set the girl down.  [color=ba55d3]"Yes, well, let's get outside town first.  I know a good spot."[/color]  She said, leading the girl through town.  [color=ba55d3]"I'd rather not gather too much attention here."[/color] Too be fair, it was a bit too late for that type of thing considering her outfit and shoes.  Not that she'd brag about this much (which may or may not be true) but she was also rather beautiful if for no fact aside from the lack of blemishes on her face.  It took about twenty minutes, but they made it too an open meadow in the middle of a forest outside town.  

For a minute she observed the nice flowers.  She didn't see this much in the Mountain.  [color=ba55d3]"I will admit I'm jealous you humans can see these beautiful things whenever you want."[/color]  She took a breath and turned to Charlotte.  [color=ba55d3]"I believe that you humans have a saying, 'No time like the present.'"[/color]  Without another word, the Tengu's wings appeared behind her and she walked over and picked up Charlotte.  [color=ba55d3]"Remember to hang on and keep your mouth closed going up.  I'd rather not lose the scholar in flight."[/color]  With that, she bent her knees as if to jump and the next thing Charlotte would know, they were going into the sky.  

At a decent distance up, they could look out and see the beauty of nature at an elevated height.  Himeko's wings were holding, though they were hovering fairly heavily.  [color=ba55d3]"Which way are we going again.  Give me a "cardinal direction" and I can go there."[/color]
