Dear Kids of the World,

Today I'm not going to be telling you whether you're the first visitor or the 6,938,003 person to view my blog. I'm also not going to be telling you about some cool adventure where Iggy and Gazzy blew something up or if Angel happened to turn into something besides a bird, on national television. And it wont be about whether Nudge can attract an SUV to her hand which wasn't as cool as it sounded , since there were people inside or if I can disappear without having to stand still anymore. No, this isn't what today's blog will be about. You need to know something WAY more important than any of that. Its more important than the cages we were raised in, the many ways people have tried to kill us, or even the wings on my back. The flock has been going through a tough time. Well no, scratch that. It hasn't been tough, its been the worst possible thing anyone would ever have to go through. We lost Max. We lost the leader of our Flock. Angel and Nudge lost their big sister, their hero. Iggy lost his sight, his belief. Gazzy lost his motherly figure, his disciplinary. What did I lose? I lost everything, I lost my entire world. I never even got to tell her I love her. I never got to steal one last kiss. I never even got to apologize for the fight we had. I never got to say that I was sorry that I made her fly away. I hate myself. If she hadn't flown away, if she hadn't been crying. She would have seen it coming. She wouldn't have died. Max is dead and its all my fault. I cant believe it. I cant believe I lost max. I cant believe I lost MY max. I don't know what I'm going to do without her.

P.S.

"Love is stronger than death even though it can't stop death from happening, but no matter how hard death tries it can't separate people from love. It can't take away our memories either. In the end, life is stronger than death." - Anonymous

No matter what happens, no matter who comes to take away anymore of my flock, they wont. I wont let them. I would say since losing Max, I have nothing left but that isn't true. I have my flock, my family and I will protect them. And we will find out who took her from us. And they will pay for what they did. I will always love Max and I will never let her down.
