The flutter overhead was of birds heading south. With my impatience, my fidgeting grew stronger as I waited for the bell to sound, hoping to be dismissed from class soon. Finally, I could emerge from the classroom to deal with the anxiety and still crash if I needed to. My attention drifted towards the sparrows outside the window, and flashed memories that seemed to stretch from my youth all the way to my high school years. Something ominous was preparing for battle.

I could see the puma slinking in the background as the birds continued to migrate towards warmer branches.
