Alex climbed into the first saddle on Striker's back, and said to Chi, "Now be gentle when boarding and once your in the other saddle, wrap your hands around my waist. I will keep him as steady as I possibly can. I hope you get a kick out of this ride as much as I do!" Alex tightened his half-gloves, capped his quiver, and made sure his bow was in place. After all that Alex wrapped the reins around his gloved hands. Striker spread his giant wings and both him and Alex waited for Chi to board

Chi hesitated slightly but whispered something to Fluffy before heading over to Striker and Alex. She climbed onto Striker's back carefully without hurting Striker or herself for that matter. She wrapped her arms around Alex tightly not wanting to end up falling. "I'll try my best to enjoy this ride..."

"Cool, Striker! To the skies!" Alex put on a pair of goggles, handed a pair back to Chi, snapped the reins once and Striker took off. Alex gently guided his loyal pet through the skies, occasionally glancing back to make sure his passenger was ok. Alex guided Striker over the camp grounds. Down below, Striker was catching some thermals as he went up and down "Well Chi, with me at Striker's riens, you have nothing to worry about." he smiled as he said it, "Falcon riding is an adrenaline rush that few get to experience."

Chi toke the goggles and put them on right before they took off. She was still holding on tight to Alex's waist even if his words were comforting. "I guess it can be an adrenaline rush..." Chi said it a little awkwardly as she was too afraid of the ride to even notice any adrenaline rush.

Alex kept Striker steady as they made a left bank turn, then Alex pulled his pet into a barrel roll, steadied out and kept flying, the wind blowing back his short brown hair.

Chi screeched as they went into a barrel roll and tightened her grip on the boys waist. Her long black and blue streaked hair was blowing in the wind behind her.

Alex was hootin' and hollerin' as his beloved pet falcon flew over the beach and back towards the cabins

Chi went from just barely enjoying the ride to being terrified of heights. She was shrieking off on frightened from the heights.

"Striker, down!" Alex commanded. With that the falcon landed and Alex smiled "Was that awesome or what?" he asked Chi.

"T-that was scary..." Chi replied shaken and relieved to no longer be in the air. After this ride Chi has achieved being afraid of heights.

"You can keep the goggles." Alex told her, removing his own pair. "Now how would you like to give Striker a treat?" Alex said. With that he dug around in his saddle bag and pulled out a dead gerbil wrapped in plastic wrap. "Just stand in front of him, unwrap it, get his attention, throw it, and back up. It's that easy." he explained

Chi nodded at the boy slowly as he told her to keep the goggles. She slowly toke her goggles off and climbed off silently. Chi saw the dead gerbil and her eyes widened like anime characters normal huge eyes. Chi slowly toke the dead gerbil and did what he told her to do.

"Listen, thanks for riding. Falcon riding is usually a lone person thing but I had fun riding with you as a passenger." Alex said to her "Will you toss me my guitar please? I should get rolling. My friends will be wondering where I am" Alex got an idea "Hey I want you to have something." he pulled his red guitar pick out from under his watch "Catch!" He tossed the pick in her direction

"No problem...Thank you for letting me ride Striker with you." Chi headed over to her guitar but turned and caught the guitar pick before it hit her in the face. "Thank you." She give a smile well it had the look of a smile but it was hard to tell for most people. She walked over and handed the boy his guitar. "Here's your guitar."

"Thanks. say...If you ever want to chat, just come visit my cabin." Alex told her as he slung his guitar onto his back. He leaned down and held out his hand for Chi to shake
