"BELL!!!" I screamed. My voice was so loud that it might as well have been the sound of a thousand voices coming out of one throat.
I moved before I could even finish my word.
The ground cracked beneath my feet as my knees bent. Then I launched myself forward and without thinking, instinct took over me.
I was in the air and began to fly. I didn't transform into a bat like before. I just flew as myself.
Wind roared loudly in my eyes as the distance between the two of us vanished far too slowly despite me moving at the fastest speed I've ever moved before.
Bell was suspended in the air with his wrists bound behind his back. A chain was dragging him upward toward a portal in the sky.
His eyes were wide, not with fear, but with surprise.
I didn't know what was going on through his mind at the moment because he was blank, like he usually was.
Why aren't you scared? Why aren't you freaking out?
Reaching out, my fingers stretched forward. "Hold on," I gasped. "I'm here—!"
