Pending Doom
Max POV
Seven years ago when I was 15 Fang was murdered by a master assassin that nobody saw coming. He fell from the sky not yet knowing that I was four months pregnant. Gazzy and Angel were away visiting their real parents that we found alive and well. Nudge, Iggy and I took him back to my mum's where we were living at that time. I was afraid of telling anybody that I was having a baby, or at least without Fang with me. So I left hoping that everybody would be O'k without me. No one was after us anymore but I always feared that someone would find out that I was having a baby and try to take it.
Now seven years later I have a daughter named Sophie who has wings that are light blue and is developing powers like my flock did. She was very strong for her age and could grow extra arms when she wanted to. We live in Melbourne, Australia. Our house is in st. Kilda on the beach and we have a dog named Tinny who is a golden retriever cross poodle (Giant poodle). I have an office job and Sophie is in grade three at primary school.
One evening we were having Spaghetti Bolognese (I'll dumb it down to noodles with meat sauce for all those Americans out there!) when I saw a 19 year old Nudge outside and 22 year old Iggy standing at the other exit and then heard Angels voice in my head saying "we have you surrounded Max, you won't escape this time"
"Mummy what's wrong?" I heard my daughter ask sounding concerned.
"Nothing honey. Just finish your dinner O'k,"
"O'k Mum. "She started eating again and then announced "I'm finished,"
"O'k I'll just go and pay." I sat up and went to the counter and paid the twenty four dollars. I decided to go out the way that Iggy was guarding and pretend that he was a random guy harassing me. I walked towards the door holding Sophie's hand. When I stepped out he grabbed me and I screamed "Let go of me!" And the security guard came and I told him "This man just grabbed me and tried to pull me into the ally!" He told Iggy to vacate the area and said" If he causes you any more trouble call the police."
"O'k" I agreed.
I quickly walked to my car and got in the car with Sophie sitting next to me.
"Mum?"
"Yer"
"Who was that?"
"I don't know just some mean person Sophie."
"O'k mum. Can I stay up and watch Harry Potter?"
"No Sophie."
"But there isn't any school in the morning!"
"O'k, but if your grumpy in the morning then you're not staying up that late again."
"O'k."
Sophie's POV
"Witch Harry Potter do you want to watch?"
I like the prisoner of Azkaban but I'll have to watch the half blood prince. "I'll watch the half blood prince please mum!" It's my favourite one.
"O'k honey. I'll watch it with you but I just have to do something."
"O'k I won't start it without you!"
"You can start it darling."
"O'k mum."
Maxs POV
I walked up to my room and dialled 7382 2639, my friend Jess' number.
"Hello?"
"Hi Jess it's me."
"Hi Max, how are you going?"
"Good."
"Why'd you call?"
"Because you told me to call you at 7:30 earlier today at work."
"Oh yer!"
"What did you want to talk about?"
"I wanted to tell you that Joe and I are getting married!"
"That's great!"
"I know right!"
"When did it happen?"
"Last night at that fancy Italian place that does a special song for engagements!"
"That must have been great!"
"It was!"
"Why didn't you just tell me at work?"
"Because we're only telling our closest friends and family for now, so can you keep it a secret?"
"Sure! Oh and when are you getting married?"
"We're not getting married just yet! But when we are I'll tell you strait away!
"O'k then, Have a good night."
"O'k you two, I better go now"
"O'k, Bye."
"Bye."
I walked down stairs thinking about how good it was that Jess and Joe were getting married.
"Hay Soph do you want some ice cream?"
"Yes please!"
"O'k" I walked into the kitchen and got out two bowls and put ice cream in them covered them in chocolate toping and went to watch the movie with Soph when I heard a knock on the door...
