Whoosh--
The sound of something tearing through the air shattered the forest's silence.
A dozen or more dark cyan, glassy figures leaped down one after another from the branches of towering trees.
Their bodies were long and streamlined, with winglike extended muscles growing from their shoulders and backs. The muscles in their limbs were taut as bowstrings.
