I shall soon land in the center of the city. My ice starts breaking up, but still keeping me safe. I get closer and closer, zooming past towers and skyscrapers. People look up at the oddity that is me. The ice distorts my vision, for only some are human faces. And then... Impact. The collision creates a shock wave, blowing back papers and cake. Unharmed, I slowly get up, my body being reintroduced to movement it hasn't done for years. My skin pale, I feel warmth rush back to me. A wonderful feeling, I could just stretch out and lay in this crater forever. I start to climb out of my crater, a testament to my last name.
