Novel & Cerita Soaring To New Heights

The sun beat down upon us as we soared through the endless blue sky. I stretched my arms out and let out an excited shout as the freshest air rushed into my lungs. I felt so alive. Adrenaline surged through my body, causing a high like I had never experienced before. Every single inch of my body was alive and reacting. I didn’t want this magical, surreal moment to end. “Here goes the chute,” Samuel hollered in my ear. The parachute deployed and gave a yank upwards as the wind caught it. We soared upright through the sky, no longer at a rapid, out-of-control freefall but at a steady, controlled pace.

I hope Vivian won’t be that disappointed that I have ruined it. I stretched my wings and jumped, soaring up the night sky and wishing that I could reach Paris before the sun rises up on the sky or else, I will surely be the subject for the media. NASA will have a field day if it all comes to that.

She gained altitude until the city was below her, the bustling humans and cars looked like ants. Lisa loved flying; the feeling of the wind in her face and everything below her exhilarated her. She felt alive as she soared through the skies, her beautiful wings carrying her to heights humans could never reach without technology. Her job could be depressing sometimes but being able to fly more than balanced the scales for her. She closed her eyes and spread her wings, gliding on the gentle wind with no sense of direction. The midday sun felt heavenly against her skin, like a warm caress. She could do this for hours, drifting in the sky without care like a speck of dust.

‘Jump’ a deep male voice wisps around me ‘and themselves will give you wings’ Behind my eyelids a blinding light erupts. ‘Jump high,’ it demands ‘And the heavens will give you a halo’ ‘Trust in the fall and gifts will shower your eternal being’ it promises. A loud abound from the party flings me back to reality. I turn and slid down the railing in an attempt to calm my erratic breathing. My heart pounds through my chest. I’ve never leaned so far into the wind before. I almost fell over the edge. A fall from this height would certainly kill me. And the baby with me.

From now on, I was the sole ruler of this city. I squinted, took a deep breath, and stepped into the light, never looking back.

With one contemptuous flick of his wrist, he dismissed the whimpering mess to limp back and deliver my venomous reply personally. As the unified army surged forward with bellows of enthusiasm to renew the gory business of siege, I sprang aloft, wings churning violently to gain height. The air shimmered with heat from my kindled wrath. Updrafts from the burning city below buoyed me ever higher until I wheeled and dove, wreathed in flame.

For the moment, I just wanted to slip into bed and have a nice nap. The next day, I was out flying again around the same time as yesterday. I was enjoying aimlessly wandering over the city for a little while. The simplistic eagle eye view I had was endlessly entertaining for me. Though I was scared of heights, I still admired the spectacle of being up high. The sense of freedom was beyond anything I could ever imagine. I could go anywhere, do anything. Climb the highest skyscraper? Walk the tight rope across the wall of a bridge? Fly alongside a seagull? I could do it all - and so much more. The possibilities of anything and everything I was capable of doing were just limitless.

Symbols and constellations adorned this ethereal pinnacle, glowing with a harmonious brilliance that hinted at the celestial truths concealed within the cosmic haven. Approaching the celestial pinnacle, Victoria and Alexander felt a profound embrace of the ascending energies that permeated the atmosphere. The celestial echoes whispered tales of cosmic ascendance and elevation, setting the stage for an experience that would bring profound transcendence to their celestial journey. The luminous energies pulsed with an ascendance that spoke of the imminent revelation awaiting the couple within the celestial pinnacle.

-"Beatrice, you're next." Connor coaches Raul, the newest recruit, who strips down to his underwear before approaching the edge. The castle had these platform runways in each high tower, allowing their shifted Phoenixes to take-off and land. Experienced seniors did not require them, but just like little birds flying the next for the first time, we beginners can use the altitude to our advantage.

I think I have an idea of what I will do with this. I let myself visualize that I am a brave bird, taking new heights and detaching myself from whatever keeps me on the ground. I feel like a more enormous eagle with these gigantic wings and use them to take a huge leap--no, massive flight--of faith to take me to the place I want to be in. One day, people will still be below me, shining their lights to signal that they are still there with me, although I am this kind of an eagle. Flapping my wings, blow away those who try to cage me. I am a bird free from the clasp of those who use me, yet I will still be looked upon by everyone I love.
