There was no crack in the shield, it was holding steady. From the look of things, they were safe.
Major Elio was the first person to make a sound. "Alive, Woohoo!" He jubilated. "Girl bubble works, we are safe."
Others were coming to a similar realization and slowly, they started to unfreeze and breathe easier. Their eyes still remained on the sky because it was not over.
What they did not know was that they had easier than some other parts of the country. In some places, entire towns had been wiped out by fires and building had been demolished. The mist was already rising, adding to the danger.
Sunshine finally managed to get Castiel to stop crying. "Look baby, we are safe." She pointed out to the sky, "It's just falling stars, nothing more."
