Aruna turned from Ssarak and started walking away. She needed distance, and everything was blurring. She mumbled a goodbye to her murderer and left the dinning hall. She stumbled through the halls until her head was clear again. She had no idea were she was, but her head was more sharp now.
She eyed a window. If anything could calm her nerves right now, it was flying. She walked to the window and opened it, revealing a steep drop. She climbed up the window sill and stood, perched on the edge, then she tilted forward, and slowly leaned. Then she simply fell.
The wind tore at her hair and howled in her ears as she fell. She snapped open her wings as felt the extreme pull in her muscles as they held her aloft and shot her skyward again. She closed her eyes and just began to climb higher and higher.She didn't care how high. She just wanted to be free from the pressure of company for a while. She contemplated if she had made the right decision in coming to the school. If she was really as safe as they had claimed.
Just as she had convinced herself that she was just being to paranoid she felt a red hot pain in her back. Right between her wings. Immediately she stopped climbing and started falling. She had climbed a long way though, and she had a long way to fall. She recognized the extreme pain as an arrow. It was to shallow to be a knife and to small (and to high) to be a spear.
The wind was ripping at her clothes as she fell, telling her she was running out of time to do something, anything. She twisted in the air to see the ground coming at her. She had the overwhelming sensation that she was going to die. So, she closed her eyes and accepted her fate.
[i] No![/i]
Her draconian eyes snapped open. She was [i]not[/i] going to die like this. She thought quickly, trying to come up with something... Then a plan dawned on her. She felt like an idiot for not thinking of it before. She grit her teeth and flexed all her muscles in her wings, making them stiff again. Immediately her speed slowed and she shot forward, but the strain on the Muscles in her back where the arrow was almost made her cry out in pain. She relaxed the muscles in her back and started falling again. She let herself fall, until the very last second, she snapped her wings and shot forward. She felt a tearing sensation in her back as her right wing just stopped working. Aruna went into a spinning crash that would certainly kill her. The pain in her back was so great that her vision was fading in and out. But she remembered the last thing she thought, before losing conciousness completely was, 
[i] why is the ground Shiny?[/i]
