Caleb focused on the sound of the wings. Everything else went silent, in slow motion. The wings flapped and he could hear one beat at a time, coming closer… closer… closer…
"Now!" he said and lunged at the eagle to catch its wings, but all at once he found demons jumping from the top of the peaks and jumping right in front of them. They were soon outnumbered. Almost a dozen demons had jumped. Orbs of yellow lights floated above them and burned brightly. "Fuck!" he growled. From the corner of his eye, he saw a woman with green eyes and horns curled at the back from her temple, approaching them. He had seen her before, but couldn't place her.
"Hello Caleb," she said, as other demons made a circle around them.
Caleb and Auril stood back to back with their claws and fangs lengthening. Caleb growled dangerously. Magic dropped from his hands in the form of blue mist. Auril's magic wrapped them both in green lights that coiled around them rapidly.
