Sarah Carter Falling Skies Novels & Stories

Sarah stood up with her eyes this time extremely bright. "Just die" Bella said taking her from her neck tossing her through the window. The sound made by Sarah's fall made the house flinch, immediately everyone ran to the field seeing Bella looking directly at sarah on the ground. "She killed her, looks like a Dmphair of her age is not what you need." Zeke said and Ray face fell. He just killed someone special even though he didn't mean it, he just wanted to end this war quickly. After a long moment of silence, Sarah rose up to Bella looking at her eyes. She was standing abnormally due to the fall but with a snap of her fingers she stood upright putting her bones in place.

If I… climb. I laugh out loud, the sound cracking like I’ve lost my mind. “Great idea, Aria. Perfect. Climb across a billionaire’s glass castle like Spider-Man with no training and zero upper body strength. Genius.” But what’s the alternative? Wait here for Damien to come back, touch my face with those rough hands, whisper in that voice like he owns me? No. I’d rather risk falling. I grip the railing, swing a leg over, and nearly lose my balance instantly. My foot slips on the slick metal. My heart shoots to my throat, and I let out a strangled laugh. “Yeah, okay, so this is stupid. This is really stupid.”

For in the depths of her heart, she knew that she could not bear to lose him—not now, not ever. And so, as she lay amidst the tangled undergrowth of the crop fields, her tears mingling with the earth beneath her. Sarah's body ached with every movement, her knees and elbows throbbing with pain from the impact of her fall. She gingerly attempted to assess the extent of her injuries, wincing as she realized that one of her shoulders may have been dislocated. A dull ache pulsed through her head, leaving her feeling disoriented and lightheaded. Summoning all her strength, Sarah reached for Zakariah's phone, her fingers trembling as she navigated to his contacts. With tears streaming down her chee

[ Sarah’s POV ] I didn't look back. I turned and sprinted into the blinding white, my heart hammering a frantic, terrifying rhythm against my ribs as the final, long blast of the trumpet echoed through the collapsing clouds. The glass beneath my feet violently ruptured, dissolving into nothing as the floor completely dropped out from under me. The sudden shift in gravity sent my stomach climbing into my throat. I didn’t fall back into my hospital room. I fell through pitch darkness, plunging headfirst into an icy, suffocating void.

She felt alive, like an eagle looking imperiously at the flightless creatures below her. The ground got closer and closer but the falling young woman only screamed louder, the sound drowned by the rush of the air against her ears. She reoriented herself so that she faced straight down like she was about to take a dive into the tarred road below. With only a few meters between her and the ground, Lisa unfurled her majestic black wings and made a sharp curve so that her fall turned into speedy flight, parallel to the ground. She shot past the cars in the parking lot so fast that her wind stream triggered their alarms. She gained altitude until the city was below her, the bustling humans and ca

Even after what she's been through and the mysterious yet calculated accident, she never let it defeat her. That accident was still something I never stopped figuring out about, and I promised myself that I will solve it and put whoever hurt her behind jail bars, even if it takes all my life. Stripping out of my clothes, I walk into my massive closet. Never would I have ever thought that I, Sarah Carter, would have such a thing. As a child I only had four pairs of shirts and three pairs of pants due to my dad spending all our money, but I knew that one day it would get better and look at us now. Grabbing a pair of fuzzy pajama pants and a sweater, I take my towel and head into the washroom.

“Now that might be useful.” He typed for a moment, then turned the screen toward me. “This is one of the aliases she’s been using. Daria Nox.” “Where was she last seen?” “Gala in Milan. Two days before the hit.” “She’s moving fast.” He nodded. “And she’s wearing our signature.” “What?” He zoomed in on a still shot of Alyssa—lips painted red, hair darker now, but unmistakably her. Around her neck? A pendant. The Colbert family crest.

The psychic link still thrummed between us—fainter now, but alive with the children's terror. Three minutes to detonation. Jeff's fingers laced through mine. "Together?" I squeezed back. "Always." We jumped. The freefall stole my breath. The world became a blur of icy wind and stinging snow as we spiraled toward the mountain. Then— CRACK Kara's wings snapped open above us, catching the air with a sound like sails filling. She grabbed my harness, steering us toward a jagged outcropping where the facility's ventilation shafts spewed steam into the morning air.

Back on the ground, Natasha, Carol and Diana watched everything around them begin to act up in the weirdest of ways. The ground was moving, the buildings were swaying like trees. Carter was hurrying off to the aircraft when he was suddenly grabbed from the back by Carol, just in time as the aircraft went up in flames. "Oh, come on!" he lamented, watching the Osiris burn in the flames that seemed to have come out of nowhere. "Is this because I locked you up in a cage?" He shouted at the god who was still hovering high up. "I don't think he can hear you," Natasha offered, feeling bad for him.

Calvin glared at me, and he pulled Janice’s hair backwards. My blood boiled and I couldn’t take it anymore. I fired my gun directly at Calvin’s face. My bullet landing square between his eyes. I watched as his body went limp and he collapsed. Janice fell to the floor and scrambled trying to get free from her restrains. A tear ran down my cheek and relief flooded over me. I rushed to aid Janice. I tore off her blindfold and ripped the gag out of her mouth. “I’m so sorry Janice” I cried to her as I grabbed her and pulled her into my lap. Her face lay sideways towards my stomach and she wept.
