Something

Ryu's grin seemed brighter than even the Heavenly Court doors above. He didn't even bother to glance at the very same young man that stepped out once again; he didn't even turn to say goodbye to the Roc Prince at all… 

Because he was quite sure that he wouldn't have to. 

The call of a bird filled the skies. 

It didn't feel like it appeared. Instead, it felt like the noise had always been there and they were only just made aware of it. 

The skies shuddered and the Title Stele seemed to dim. 

A pair of silver wings that encompassed the skies themselves flew overhead. 

It was the very essence of speed. 

It was said that the Roc was the fastest creature in all of existence. There were probably many who were against such a thing, many who believed that their speed was greater, superior. 

But when laying one's eyes on a real Roc, it was impossible to feel any other way.
