Author's Note

Hi. This is my first multiple chapter fan fiction. Feedback would be wonderful. This story will have ten chapters total. I want to thank wickedride for following and favoriting me.

Max's POV

"Okay, guys. Let's land here!" I call out to the rest of the flock. We just saved my mom from Dr. Chu, and right now, we don't have a plan to save the world, so I decided we should celebrate.

"Land at the beach? And like go to the beach? Can we go to the beach, Max?" Nudge asks.

"Nudge! Yes, land at the beach. I know we've had some bad experiences there, but we can change that. And the kids will have fun," I explain.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Nudge and Angel exclaim as we all land along the empty and abandoned beach. I watch as Nudge, Angel, and Gazzy drag Iggy into the water.

"Haven't had enough of the water lately?" Fang smirks and puts his arm around my waist.

"Well, I've had enough of evil scientists trying to kill my family, too, but for some reason I don't seem to get my every wish," I reply.

Fang nods and watches the flock. I shrug out of Fang's grasp and hold his hand instead. I turn to face him.

"Fang, are you okay being here, at the beach? We can leave. I never told the kids how long we were staying," I ask Fang. I am referring to what happened with Ari. I knew he still has scars and hasn't forgotten about the incident.

"I'm fine, Max. You don't need to worry about me," Fang says with a rare, reassuring smile. I can't help but smile back. We sit in comfortable silence on the warm sand. After awhile, we both fall asleep.

Iggy's POV

Fang and Max are both asleep and I have a Sharpie. That means it is time for a prank. Max will probably get mad, but, hey, it's her fault for falling asleep.

I'm actually pretty decent at writing for a blind bird kid, if I do say so myself. I should probably get rid of this Sharpie. You know, hid the evidence?

I slowly creep away from Fang and Max. I have to be quiet because the flock wakes easily. It will be all worth it though when I hear their reactions! Speaking of which, they could be sleeping for a while. Why don't I speed up their wake up process?

Fang's POV

I stifle a scream. Mr. Tall, Dark, and Silent cannot wake up screaming. I have an image to protect. Why would I be screaming you ask? Iggy just drenched me with a bucket of freezing cold water and is running to refill the bucket for Max. I look over to Max, deciding I should wake her before Iggy gets back.

No…Iggy? So immature! He wrote on our faces with Sharpie. Max has a mustache and unibrow and… Iggy is trying to get killed. I can't even say it. Iggy wrote "max+ fang" in a big heart.

"Iggy! Put the bucket down. Now," I growl.

"What? Fangiepoo can't take a prank?" Iggy teases.

"Max will kick your butt into next week," I say making a grab for the bucket and failing. Iggy drenches Max with water. Oh, boy. This is going to be bad.

"What the h-e-double hockey sticks was that?" Max exclaims. She gives Iggy a death glare that I'm pretty sure can actually kill. Iggy must get the picture and runs. I grab Max. She starts laughing and I sigh. It's going to be okay.

"Look at you face. Fang, you face!" Max says between laughs.

"Um, Max? Want me to get you a mirror? I'm sure Nudge has one," I say with a smirk. I grab a mirror out of Nudge's backpack. I am right as always.

Max blushes as she looks in the mirror.

"This means war," Max says. Prank war here we come!
