Chapter 121
Euphoria saw a red blur move through the sky. A small creature launched itself from an eagle-beast's back, landing behind Seth and blasting him with fire, scorching his wings.
Hayes used the moment to let go of Seth's neck, though his jaws were still locked on Seth's leg.
The small red creature moved quickly between the eagle-beasts, catching them by surprise.
Euphoria watched in shock, as did Luce and Wayne at the gate.
With his wings burned, Seth couldn't make the sound waves anymore. Seth looked furious, his eyes full of hate.
Without his wings, he fell toward the ground, dragging Hayes with him.
When they hit the dirt, Hayes bit harder into Seth's leg.
Other beasts swarmed Hayes to protect Seth. Overwhelmed, Hayes had to let go, and a giant eagle-beast dived down to grab Seth and fly him away.
Trent flew over to help Hayes, who climbed onto his back. The tiny red creature landed on Hayes's shoulders.
