"Full emergency power to the engines," Jake says. "Ram the Blade ship."
Tobias smiles as Jake gives the final order. At least he smiles as much as a hawk can smile. he says privately, a habit he never broke himself of, even though she hasn't been there to hear him for years.
The blinding flash and deafening bang are impressive, but somehow Tobias had expected something even bigger as the two ships collided.
He also isn't expecting to find himself five hundred feet and plummeting toward the trees. Partially because there aren't a lot of trees in space, but mostly because he was pretty sure death wouldn't be so similar to life.
Instincts kick in and his wings snap, pulling him into a glide.
He banks into a thermal to gain some altitude and begins to circle. What in the world just happened?
[Tobias is a red-tailed hawk. And he's currently flying over the Pacific coast somewhere in Oregon.]
