"Storm, was struck.. As I said. Blood formed on his feathers, his talons went limp, and his wings stopped flapping. Before gravity overtook him and pushed him to the cold ground, he gazed up to me.. His eyes were bloodshot, but warm. He fell, and I could hear the thump at the ground. I was still just flying there, but my strength came back into place, and adrenaline rushed through my bloodline. I could hear the hunters laughing from below, I could now see one of the hunters with my owl's eye. He looked right up at me, and smirked.. He pointed his gun to me, and began shooting vigorously. He was coming after the rest of the flock now. I needed to warn them. The bullets were coming closer and closer.. Come on, Winter. FLY! I told myself. One bullet brushed upon my face, and head feathers. With that, I regained consciousness of my body. I was snapped out of it, and now I had my mission. With all my might and power, I flew against the speeds of wind to return with my flock. Of course the humans followed. I was miles away from them, but I finally reached them. 'Oh honey, your back!' My mother said. Let me tell you what my mother looks like; Windglaze, is her real name. She is a snowy owl just like me, and she was a completely white owl, like the other family, though there was one difference.. She had one marking on the middle of her head. The mark was a black sharp curving line, followed by one tiny black dot on each side. Back to the story. I panted very hard, from flying that much. I didn't even know I could fly that fast. "Mom! We-" I began. 'What's wrong sweetie?' She asked. "Humans. Killed the other snowy owl family. Are heading to us. Must. Leave. Now. Escape." I say shouting loud enough for the flock to hear me.. But as soon as I said that..

'HA! HA!' The humans expressed their violence. They began shooting, but luckily we all missed it. I flew to the front of the flock, and began guiding them. I could hear frightened shrieks and whispering, but I continued to flap my wings until we were at the valley, for an instance I thought we were safe.. But that night.. It was different." Winter said finishing, I could tell there were tears biting and threatening to come out.
