Above him was brilliant blue sky marred only by the occasional alabaster cloud. He passed over a thermal and used it to spiral up over the course of a few minutes. He still hadn’t quite figured out how to find them, but whenever he did he used them for the free lift. He spiraled higher and higher, watching as the city below became a toy-like display. He loved to do this, not for itself but for what came next. He leveled off and then banked into a steep dive back down to the city. Wind roared in his ears as he grinned widely. There was no flapping, no work, just the adrenaline rush of pure speed. Beneath him buildings rushed by. At this pace he could cross the entire metropolis in a matter of minutes. He’d raced a few other fliers who indulged in the same hobby, but of all of them he seemed to be the most addicted to the experience. Yesterday the most exciting thing in his life had been his collection of geodes from all over the world. Today he couldn’t imagine sitting with them and looking at a specimen under a microscope.
