Max POV (15 years later... the flock is disbanded)
I sat on my bed, watching TV, when my youngest, Lissa, came up to me.
"Mommy?" she asked.
"Yes, sweetie?"
"I want to ask you a question."
"Okay." I told her and pulled her onto my lap.
"How come Nikki's hair is black, and my hair is blonde, like yours and Daddy's?" I looked at her, shocked.
"Um... you see...."
"Mom had another husband before 'Craig'. He is my dad." I heard Nikki say, and turn the corner.
"Oh. Okay." She ran out.
"Mom, what was his name?" Nikki asked me.
"His name was Fang. But he probably goes by Nick now."
"And he doesn't know I exist."
"Nope." I said. "Unless Angel, Mom, or Ella have told him. Which I doubt."
"Oh. Well, do you think I could look for him?"
"I don't know... let me check something." I walked over to the computer next to my bed and sat down. "He used to have a blog." I told her.
"No one has blogs anymore, Mom." Nikki said. I rolled my eyes.
"Yeah, well I was born in the dinosaur ages. Get over it." I opened the computer, and typed in our old address. I was silently hoping...
"Hm. Looks like someone does." Nikki said. My eyes flew open.

Yo. So I've been trying to update this as much as possible with new stuff from the
flock. I talked to Gazzy yesterday. He's been working with the US military to create
weapons and bombs. Scary. As anyone who reads this blog knows, IggyxxXxxElla is
running strong. I heard about a week ago that she's expecting. Cool for them.
Nudge has been working with the Apple Corp., developing new computers, trying to
beat Windows. And she even has her own clothing line. Angel has been working as
a Marine Biologist since... forever...
And still no word from Max. I'm kinda glad. That way she can't yell at me to get off
my lazy blogging ass and get a real job other than what I've got. Just kidding.
FLY ON!
Fang
I leaned back in my chair. Nikki just looked at me.
"Oh, c'mon Mom... get in touch with him! Or I will." My eyes widened, and I sighed.
"Fine. But... I'm not mentioning you quite yet." She rolled her dark eyes and walked to the door. Then she stopped.
"Mom?"
"Yes?"
"Why did you guys get a divorce in the first place?"
"There were some complications."
"And... If you're 29, and I'm 13, that means... you were... 16... You weren't married, we're you?" There was a very, very long silence. We held each other's eyes. Then I looked down, and felt a tear run down my face. I shook my head.
"That's why I'm not with him right now. It was an accident. And it turned into the wonderful miracle you are. I know I was too young, but I don't regret you." I told her. She walked up to me and hugged me.
"That's why you won't tell him yet?"
"Yes."
"I love you."
"'Love you too, hun." I told her, and wiped the tears from my eyes. This time she left the room, and I sighed, looking at the computer screen. And then I typed.
Fang-
Yo. I was looking up some old things, and I decided to look you up. You're lucky you still have a blog.
I wanted to tell you about how I am now. I am happily married (i know, kinda scary), and have two beautiful daughters, Lissa and Nikki, and one son, Ari.
I am working on one final book to the saga, and I might have it published. I don't know yet.
I would like to talk, face to face. Where are you now?
(BTW: Just so you know I'm not one of your fangirls posing as Max, I'll tell you the one thing that only we (me&you) know. **********.) (Note to reader, from Max: like I'm going to say what it is.)

A/N time!
So, I practically have half the story written already, and I'm waiting to see if you guys like it. So, R&R!!!
Also, I realize I named Max's youngest child Lissa, and that is the name of the Red Haired Wonder. (if you didn't, remember that!) I think I'm going to put it in the story just to tick off Max. Maybe.
I officially name this review button on this story Fred. Don't ask. That name is just awesome. So, make Fred happy and poke his belly! **TICKLETICKLE** (Just make sure you don't touch him in his... special spot.)
