~Fang's POV~
"Lissa come back, please." I groaned into the phone.
"No Fang, you're a dick. I hate you." Oh god. Grow up.
"Lissa... Please... I'm sorry.." Fang... you did nothing... stop it.
I zoned out as she started bitching. Saying how I was horrible to her, how bad my hair was, how I didn't play enough sports, I was selfish... The list goes on.
This was how most of my days went. Lissa was my girlfriend, and she had been for a few months. In all honesty, I couldn't stand her one bit. But she had been one of my first friends in Arizona High (even though she was only using me for popularity) and I know I'm the only person there for her, with her parents and everything. Lissa's parents had gotten divorced about 3 years ago and they aren't exactly the most caring parents... if you know what I mean. And so I was pretty much left with her, brilliant, I know.
"Fang? Are you even listening?" I heard her screech. Nope.
"Sorry Lissa, Iggy's calling." I said quickly, hanging up on her before she could say anything more. I wasn't actually lying though... Iggy was calling.
"Hey dude, sup?" He said, he was one of the most cheerful people I knew.
I got up, getting ready to change. I knew he was gonna ask if I wanted to go over to check out a new game he bought, either that or he just wanted me to come over and play the last game he bought. I threw on my black shirt and some jeans.
"I'm coming over," I said, clamping the phone between my cheek and shoulder as I pulled my pants on and worked on tying my shoe laces.
"Okay see you in a sec," He said cheerfully, hanging up. I shut the phone and put it in my pocket as I left my room, bumping into Nudge on the way out. Nudge was my little sister, well, she's 15 but she's still my little girl.
"Are you going to Iggy's place?" She asked and I nodded, ruffling her hair and trying to get pass her.
"Okay, tell Angel I'll come over in a sec too," She grinned and went off to her room. Angel was Iggy's little sister, she was in the same grade as Nudge and they're best friends I guess. Let's just say our families are really close. Iggy lives across the street and I practically live there too. I walked into their garden and saw Iggy's Mom painting in the yard, her hands covered in paint and the radio blasting next to her.
"Hey Mrs. Griffiths," I grinned, giving a short wave. Iggy's Mom was honestly one of the coolest Moms I knew, she was an artist, photography, painting, sketching.. And an awesome one too. Almost everyone in the neighborhood had some of her work in their houses. She turned and waved at me, grinning wide.
"Hey Fang, Iggy's upstairs!" She shouted over the radio, I gave her a thumbs up and walked into the house, jumping up the stairs to Iggy's room. He was sitting on his bed, Angel next to him, playing Metal Gear Solid.
"Iggy, that's an old game." I said, walking into the room and sitting on the edge of the bed, Angel shuffled over and patted the space next to her.
"I know, but I can't beat this and I need you to help me or I won't cross over when I die," He threw me a controller and sat back while I concentrated on the game and Angel painted her nails, asking me if I liked the color or if it was too babyish and Iggy asked me about Lissa, through gritted teeth most of the time. The Griffiths weren't fans of Lissa. As an hour passed and I was halfway through the game, Nudge came over to be with Angel and Iggy and I were talking about other things and Mrs. Griffiths called us down for dinner.
Nudge and I eat dinner at Iggy's house sometimes, it's to give Mom and Dad some alone time... if you know what I mean. Mr. Griffiths is one of the best chefs in town anyways (even though he's a vet) and he makes the BEST very rare or rare steaks, they're still kinda bloody inside and crispy on the outside. It's heaven, really. I don't know how he does it.
"Where's Ella?" Mrs. Griffiths asked and we all shrugged. She sighed and went outside, calling her name. Ella was Iggy's youngest sister, she was 8 and she had a habit of getting lost around the neighborhood, she liked to 'explore'.
"Mommy! Mommy!" She called, running into the house and into Mrs. Griffiths legs, pulling on her hand. "Mommy there's a girl outside and she fell from the sky and she's bleeeding!" She whined while pulling her Mom outside, Mr. Griffiths hurried outside to investigate.
"She fell from the sky?" Angel asked, getting up with Nudge to follow. I looked at Iggy and he shrugged, taking a bite of his steak before standing up and going outside too, I followed him. It was already dark out but the streetlights illuminated what looked to be a badly injured girl around my age, curled up on the floor, her clothes torn and her hair a wild mess of dirty blonde all over her head. From where I was standing, her leg looked to be bent in a painfully awkward position and blood was flowing freely from a gash on her face. Mrs. Griffiths gasped and hurried to her, checking for a pulse while Mr. Griffiths quickly ran inside to dial an ambulance.
"Iggy! Go find a wet towel for her face!" He shouted from the doorway with a phone in his hand, I went to sit next to the girl and gazed at her face, twisted in agony. She was beautiful. Iggy rushed back with a wet towel and gave it to his Mom who pressed it lightly to her. I looked over at Iggy who seemed to be admiring her too and I instantly felt a stab of jealousy...
"The ambulance will be here soon." Mr. Griffiths said, hurrying down to examine the girl as well, he was a doctor after all. Her eyelids fluttered as the sirens came closer and their wailing got louder. Soon enough, 4 paramedics hopped off the ambulance with a stretcher and hurried her into the back.
"I'll go with her, you bring the kids," Mrs. Griffiths said to her husband before jumping in with the girl, holding her hand and giving us a quick wave before the paramedics hopped in and slammed the door, speeding off to the hospital, sirens wailing loud. I saw my Mom hurrying out of the house with a horrified expression on her face and I waved to her, signaling that Nudge and I was okay and that I was going to the hospital with Iggy's family and she nodded, exhaling in relief. We all jumped into Iggy's dad's car, Nudge sitting with Angel and Iggy in the back, Ella in his lap while I sat in the front, all of us quiet as we rushed to the hospital. We found Iggy's mom in the waiting room, sipping on a bottle of water nervously as she told us that the girl was going to go get her X-Ray's and casts done and the doctors said she would be fine.
But who was this mysterious girl anyways?
~Max's POV~
I woke up in a room smelling much like the labs back home, the memory making me shudder. I was on Earth wasn't I? I was safe... But where was my flock? Where was I now?
But the heavy darkness was still pressing against me and I succumbed to it, passing out once more.
Hey guys, I hoped you liked it, I've still got a week left of the summer holidays so I'll update more! Tell me if you like it, tell me if you don't!
