((Sorry! Keyboard problems... thanks for waiting!))

On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams...

Eagle was completely unfazed by the warning hiss he�d received in contrast to Kestor�s warble. If she�d hissed, that meant she had noticed him, and that this flight wasn�t over yet! With a burst of energy, he shot through the air, eyes gleaming with a determination to fly on and on, making sure to make up for the lost ground he had at being late. He gave another bugle. She had to know that he wouldn�t give up! But, what reason on Pern could pull him away from the wondrous goddess of a �lizard that he saw in flight right here? He distnatly remembered that their Impressed were speaking even now, and knew that he must win her, no matter what! What could he do to prove his worth, for obviously she was of much greater power and specular than he! Distantly, he was reminded of Daraco talking to him of flights, and remembered one thing; he must be spectacular, he must stand out to her liking, while staying close enough not to disqualify himself. That he could try, for this glimmering beauty so precious in his eyes. That he could try!

Where the city sleeps...

Eagle�s eyes whirled ever more faster once he saw her wondrous descent. Oh, that he could be as graceful as this! However, he could not, though this wonder of a flit could, and he must follow her to the end. Folding his wings after her, he felt the wind on his face, the power of his descent, though nothing in comparison to hers. She was all he cared about. She was all he needed. Neatly, he made a semi-swimming motion through the air, hide glittering beautifully as he curved his body to find a more efficient way to his beloved. His eyes flashed as he saw her below him, and watched her expertly dive down to the bottom. However, he had to pull out much higher than she, as his form would not allow this kind of folly near the ground. However, his eyes flashed.This made him look cowardice! Definetly not the impression to make on such a lovely being, such a wonderful green. Titling his wings, he dived slowly lower�carefully, slowly�until the grass tickled his descending wings, and he knew he could fly no lower. To do so would be to crash, and to crash would be disaster. Carefully, he sped up as much as he could, until he took a daring move. Extending his talons below him, he gave a sharp, powerful push against the ground, sending him whirling up after the beautiful emerald. Giving a loud cry, he tried to alert her that he was still to follow her, wingbeats steady, heart racing.

And I'm the only one, and I walk alone...
