DISCLAIMER!!!:I do not own any of these characters! Like how I read on someone else's : 'I own these characters just as much as K-fed has talent...' or well something like that.

"Alex, you know you don't have to go, right? I mean none of us want you to go!" My sister, Miss.'Indestructible Brick Wall', had on a humongous pouty face. But she already knew why I was going. Might as well just tell her again.

"I know I don't have to go, but this is my choice. I can tell I'm holding you and the rest of the flock back, Max, and without me here you'll have one less mouth to worry about getting three thousand calories a day for."

She really didn't like that answer, and I didn't have to read her mind to figure that one out. "Where are you exactly headed?"

"North, mainly, but I don't have exact coordinates. From what I know me and the rest of the flock don't have mysterious voices popping in and out of our head telling us where to go. Oh and let's not forget that if we don't go there the world will be at it's end."

She rolled her eyes at me, I always knew between us both I got the sarcastic bone. "Pinkie promise to keep in touch and try and stay out of trouble?" She held out a pinkie."Oh and be safe."

"Gosh, quit treating me like I'm five! I'll keep in touch in as many ways as possible. And that whole mental block thing I have no reason to leave up so that'll be one more way for us all to communicate."

"Pinkie swear." She nodded towards her hand, and just to make her happy, I did. With that she embraced me in a huge hug and entered that horrendous dimension where sob fests happen all the time.

I've only been with the flock for a year now but it feels like it's been a lifetime. They treat me as if I have been with them on their 'adventures this whole time. I mean even fang whose supposedly Mr. Sit in the Corner and Ignore the Whole World, talks to me on a regular basis.

"Try and keep out of trouble, k?" Max said in between sniffles.

"Max you know I'll one things for sure," she cocked an eyebrow waiting for the rest of my statement."It doesn't matter if I'm a full three minutes older than you, you got all the motherly instincts." That made her laugh a little.

"Oh yea, because in those three measly minutes you were just cramming in that studying for the instincts exam."

"Yep that's exactly what I was doing." She slapped me on the side of the head while I packed some bandages. That was the last thing I needed before I took off. So in one swift movement I zipped up my bag and put it over my shoulder.

"Are you sure you want to go Alex? If you go I'm sure Angel and Nudge wouldn't be able to survive. You're a member of the flock and that means part of our family. Losing you would be like losing Gazzy or Iggy--"

"Max, I already talked to the rest of the were a little sad but they understood why I was going. Wait why did you compare me to Ig and Gaz?"

"Well I was trying to think of someone in the flock that Ang and Nudge would cry day and night if they left."

"Sure. Mm-hm." I smiled."Love ya sis, but I got to go."

"Love you too."

With that I unfolded my wings and went off into the wide open blue. And it felt horrible. I had just met up with my twin, and settled down with a group of kids who I was comfortable around. And now I was going off into the no mans land without anywhere to go. What is wrong with me?

Oh and yes, me and Max are twins, but the thing is, is that you would think even fraternal twins would have some kind of physical feature that was the same, but not us. Like she has brown hair while I have black. Her eyes are brown, mine are electric blue. Even our wings are exact opposites. Hers are light brown with white tips and then if you look at mine they are black with white flecks every where. If anyone in the flock had to be twins it would probably be me and Fang.

Hey Alex! I never had the chance to say goodbye today, but I guess I still get to talk to you this way.

Hi Ang, and sorry about that I was trying to see as little of tears as possible.

It's okay. Hey where are you right now? Max is soo worried about you right now. You know you being all alone out there.

Ummm, somewhere in the middle of Nevada. And y'all are still at mom's house. That really wasn't a question. She knew I could figure that one out. just one of my 'power' things. Just like Max I can fly at super fast speeds and I also can tell you where anyone in the world is at. It comes in handy if you want to know if erasers are near.

Hey Alex, Max wants to tell you something.

Alright let the leader speak. Angel giggled while transferring Max's message to me.

Alex, have you seen any Flyboys yet? Has anyone seen you? Her voice was concerned.

No,mother, a regular human would be more likely to see a bullet fly past them then to see I don't think Flyboys can fly as fast as you and I. Anyways if I had seen one wouldn't I have just distracted it so it would forget to flap it's clunky wings. I am not an eraser murderer, I just help them commit suicide.

You could hear Angel laugh in the background. Well you better get some sleep soon. Rest but be alert. Our little telephone needs to go to sleep too.

Alrighty then. Bye Max, goodnight telephone. I mean Angel.

Angel harrumphed and that was the end of the communication. After one more hour of flying I took Max's advice and landed in a tree to get some rest. I settled down in one of the large spruce trees in King's Canyon National Park in California. A much better choice than the sequoias. From previous experiences, trust me, they are not easy to navigate around.

I checked my surroundings and held out a fist forgetting I was the only one here. I pulled it back wryly and closed my eyes. If anything right now I would just rest my wings until tomorrow.

"Hey Tweety where are you?" A low gruff voice said from above the canopy of my tree. Great just what I need, uninvited visitors.

I looked around me to check how many 'things' had to die. I only counted five in all. I grabbed my bag and shot up through the trees without any can't fly as fast as me. That really wasn't a good choice on my part. I may have forgotten that the flyboys could be everywhere above the trees. Oops. Oh and guess what. The School upgraded the flyboys. They're twice as fast now. Just great.

I fought for my life, but after so many blows to your head and wings, a hybrid can only handle so much. My wings buckled and I fell. I blacked out before I hit the ground, but the last thing I remember seeing was the flyboys getting further and further away.

Please tell me what you think about the chapter. I'll try and update soon!
