Billy glanced around, but his eyes wouldn't focus. Lights seemed too dim and then far too bright at random and he winced when someone in armor walked by and the reflected sunlight did a drive by on his eyes. Billy crouched down and covered his face with a hand as he tried to process.
Max was next to him talking. Billy glanced up and opened his mouth but stopped suddenly. His tongue felt too thick and slow. He swallowed a few times and tried again. “So-sm.... Rowl.” he was having trouble speaking. Rowling was...
He couldn't feel his familiar- his familiar he had invested a portion of his mind into when he created it. Feedback? Damage? He was trying to think but his heart was beating too fast.
Rowling wasn't a real animal, and in some ways that probably made him more durable than a regular bird... he could remake the familiar too if he needed.
An image of a dug open hole in the Nevada desert came to mind and Billy knew it would hurt to find a twisted up familiar. He didn't want to remake his friend...
Billy took a long slow breath and spoke slowly like he was struggling with each word. “Can't. F-feel. Him.” he said as he tapped the side of his head. Then he stood on shaky legs.
He needed to find his bird.
