Chapter 1
Broken trust
"So here I am. Having the time of my life with the flock. Let me remind you this isn't the old flock."
"They can die for all I care. Those backstabbers. Guess I should explain."
Flashback
I got back to the house with the gift for the flock. It was this locket containing all of our pictures. It also had some cool pictures of some good times together.
I walk in and the first thing Angel said was, "Max, we need to talk." "Ok". I had a bad feeling about this. You know the one?
Everybody was sitting down, looking serious. Now I really had the feeling.
"Max, we know you've been working for the school. We want you to leave." Angel said. "What! Angel, I hate the school, why would I work there?"
"You tell us." She shot back.
I looked around at the faces I had come to know." Do you all want this?" I asked. Everybody agreed, even Fang, who I thought I love. Heck, even Dylan who was my" perfect other half".
"Fine!" I shouted. "If this is what you want I will leave. I will never pick up the phone. I will be completely and utterly erased from your lives. That is what you all want, isn't it?"
They were a bit taken back with my outburst, but I didn't care. All I could register was they had betrayed me. My own family. I thought I could trust them and this is what I get.
"Max-" Fang began.
"Save it!" You know, I thought I loved you. Guess I was wrong, huh?" I saw hurt in his eyes but I didn't care anymore.
I threw down the locket I had gotten for them. The pictures flew everywhere.
"I hope you realize the mistake you've made." Without another word I ran out the door, unfurled my wings and flew away from them. Hopefully never to see them again.
I hoped I would never see them again. Too bad I didn't my hope wasn't right.
