Chapter: Alien Dice
The blue bird dice raked its talons over Lexx’s shoulders and wings. Searing pain shot through his body as he arched his back, shifting the energy abruptly. It would be a waste, but he had to get the thing off his back before it ripped off his wings. Sparks flew, light dancing before his eyes. Claws appeared in his peripheral vision. A grey beak opened close to his head. Electricity exploded from Lexx, arcing and snapping in the air. Blinding light momentarily overtook his vision. The weight fell from his back. He spun, struggling to making his wings work.
