Prologue
“You flew! That wasn’t me; that was you!”
Peter flinched away from the fury in Nathan’s voice. His own anger had seeped away and the only feeling holding any power over him was exhaustion. He’d been moving non-stop for how long now? Weeks? And now Nathan was yelling and pushing and demanding answers.
“Because you’re my brother and I love you.”
Peter just wanted to sleep.
“That’s not what I would have done.”
A kick to the guts would have hurt less than those words. Peter watched Nathan disappear into the ebony sky and sank wearily to his knees. The woods smelt pleasant, cold and clean with leaves crunching under his hands. Just a few minutes rest and then he’d go…where? Peter hadn’t been home in months. Was his apartment even his own anymore?
Too many questions. He’d rest, go to his mother’s house and find some clothes then…
Leaves crushed by approaching feet. Peter raised his head dazedly, the world not quite in focus.
“Nathan…?”
But then a sickening wrench of power and Peter was somewhere else completely.
