EMT Extraordinaire
Dimitri scanned the forest with his eyes but was mostly searching in his head for any disturbances on the ground which took a great deal of focus, especially when he was constantly checking behind them. The School had made him so paranoid. Well, they were to blame for pretty much everything that was wrong with him. Overly protective, untrusting, paranoid...winged...
Flying was bliss. Brilliant. Spectacular. But there were days that if he could take it all away and have a regular human life and go his entire existance without hearing about the School, he would, he would trade it all. Today was one of those days, for Lillie, Liza, their entire flock.
"There they are." Dimitri said suddenly ducking into the trees, flying neatly through branches until he saw the familiar shape of their Flock. He immediately grabbed Blaire and Lillie out of their giant hug and into his own. When he broke away he clapped Keanu and Ethan with a hug too, not above hugging his brothers. "I'm so glad all of you are safe....Where is Alex?" He looked around. "Is he scouting?" He scooped Lillie into his arms and rubbed her back between her small bluebird-like wings.
"Not scouting. He fell back to take out Erasers," Blaire said, leaving out the part about the guns. Alex would be okay, he always was, he was strong, he didn't need anyone worrying about him. That was what Blaire was convincing herself.
"NO! You brought that traitor back with you!" Dimitri roared, his face contorting, seeing Eliza's unconscious body slumped against a tree as Ethan, unknowing of what had happened, set her down. "Are you crazy? You should have left her there to die. Betraying her own kind."
