The pilot dove. He landed smoothly on a paved but pot-holed road through the desert. Apparently he’d decided to give up the fight. At least in the air.
Jackson doubted these men would just go willingly, but they were smart enough to realize they couldn’t outmaneuver dragons in the bulky aircraft.
The small group of men came out shooting.
Ophidian dove toward a man at the front of the group.
The soldier sprayed the entire area with gunfire. A few shots hit Jackson’s leg. No big deal. No way could bullets penetrate Ophidian’s scales or Death Dealer helmets and breastplates. His heart and head were protected. Any other injury would begin to heal on its own long before Jackson ever returned to Cymmera.
Ophidian weaved his way carefully through the darkness. He closed in on his target.
Jackson pulled his sword from the sheath.
The soldier held Jackson’s gaze. He had to know what was coming—Jackson had just flown through a hail of bullets without even flinching—yet his stare stayed strong.
Respect blossomed in Jackson’s chest, surged through him. This man’s strength, courage, and pride would make him a great warrior.
Jackson stayed his course. Calm. Steady. Focused. His heart ached.
With his gaze locked on Jackson’s, the young soldier held his ground and continued to fire.
Jackson lifted the sword. He was almost on him.
A fierce determination to defend himself and his companions burned in the man’s eyes.
Closer.
A twinge of regret nagged at Jackson. He ignored it. “I can’t apologize for what I am, Ryleigh.” The gunfire and men yelling diminished, faded to the back of Jackson’s mind. His vision tunneled. Nothing else existed in that one instant in time.
A fraction of a second.
Jackson’s sword found its mark.
