A/N: I am not JP if I was do you honestly think I'd have a girly name like dragongirl23232? Or be writing on fanfic instead of a new book? Also some of my characters may have qualities of characters from other books which I don't own either, just saying this once and only once.

Belinda's POV:

God, I love the badlands. I can be myself, my true self. The isolation also makes it a great practice spot. Its unbelievable how beautiful it is here, yet no one notices, only those local to this area. I thought while sitting beside a glassy lake surrounded by walls of rock making it look like a bowl with water in it.

"Might as well start practicing now" I sighed and gracefully stood up wiping the dirt off my butt. I shrugged off my sweater before taking a step forward. I breathed in deeply. My voice then full of the power that runs through my veins, shouted "Incendo!" Thrusting my arm up toward the sky; before screaming a blood curdling scream, and finally fainting.

Max's POV:

"Max! The air is sooooo fresh here, it's perfect. Plus nobody lives in this area. Can we stay here? Pleeeease? You know there's a place here called the 'badlands'? Have we been here because you know the trouble we always leave? Remember that…" Nudge said before Iggy reached over and blindly put his hand over her mouth, while in flight. God bless him for that; how he managed it I don't know but I don't care, just as long as Nudge is quiet. I do love her in all, but man can she talk. Wow now I'm starting to sound like her only in my head. I scrunched my nose in distaste. I turned my head and saw Fang starring at me, his gorgeous obsidian eyes laughing at my expression. He is the sexiest thing I've ever seen, him and his gorgeous shaggy black hair that falls perfectly into his eyes; even though he'd never love me. Wait did I just think that? I looked over at Angel before remembering that the whole flock had learned how to block her unless they wanted her to hear them.

"Something funny?" I snapped at him, I have a reputation to uphold even though I just wanted to laugh with him to hear his melodic laugh. Dammit, I'm going girly, where's a good eraser to do a few good kicks and punches on.

All of a sudden I saw a brilliant white flash from the lake below us, before feeling extreme pain course through my body. I let out a pain-filled scream before going unconscious and my wings retracted back into my back, and I started to plummet to the earth.

Fang's POV:

Not this again. I can't bear to lose her, we've gone through too much. She may not know how I feel about her, because why would a girl like her want anything to do with me? I mean she's talented, gorgeous, intelligent and has a fiery nature. All of that just makes her just so…perfect. Her beautiful golden brown hair wildly frames her face. Her chocolate brown eyes look like someone just melted a bar of chocolate.

"Fang! Go get her!" Nudge screamed at me tears streaming down her face, snapping me back into reality.

"Everyone come down to the lake over there, I'll meet you there with her" I said pointing to a lake that was almost directly where Max would fall. Then closing my wings, I dived toward Max. Once I Got close to her I reopened my wings and caught her in my arms, holding her tight to my chest. Then I coasted on the wind down toward the lake I pointed out. I was the first to land there, apparently I dived too fast. Whoops, oh well who cares. I looked around and saw a girl lying at an odd angle by the lake. She wore black shorts and white tank top. Her rich deep brown hair was splayed around her face. Her eyes were closed, and her right arm was twisted underneath her. Near her was a backpack and a sweater. I carried Max over to the mystery girl, and lied her beside the strange girl. I then gently unbent the girls arm. The rest of the flock decided then to land. Shock was on al of their faces when they saw the girl.

Andrew's POV:

I drew in a breath, smelling all of the various scents of the Badlands. Then I set off running at an impossible speed. Seeing the unique land fly by was spectacular. I was getting close to my favorite place before I hear a scream that stopped me in my tracks. It was a girl's scream, and she sounded in pain. I took a good whiff of the air and located an unknown scent in the general proximity of my lake. Again I started running toward my lake before hearing another scream that again made me stop. This time when I sniffed I did a double-take. It was another weird scent, kinda bird, kinda human; that scent too was near my lake. There must be birds at the lake, stupid, hello we're out in the wilderness. I shook my head and ran down the bowl-shaped edges down to my lake; where I ran into a group of teenagers. Two girls were unconscious and a boy with dark hair looked as if he wanted to help them but didn't know how. They all (except the two unconscious girls) looked up when I arrived
