Max's P.O.V

We were fighting for our lives, but whats new right.

Well it all started at Mom's house, we were resting after Germany when flyboys attacked. Fang and I shoved Mom and Ella into a closet trying to protect them. I was fighting four flyboys, Fang was fighting five, Iggy and Gazzy were surrounded, Nudge was trying to get to them to help, Angel was doing her mind control thing and Total was biting ankles.

Suddenly Angel screams, as I whip around to see whats wrong she stops screaming. I find her just as shes dropped to the floor. My Angel was dead. That's when Gazzy and Total freaked. Total tried biting the flyboy that killed Angel and was stomped on and killed. Gazzy, my poor Gazzy, he just lost it. He attacked anything in front of him, even Iggy. Suddenly Gazzy was surrounded and being separated from Fang and me. Fang and I were also being separated from each other and surrounded.

Gazzy was losing and losing bad, he was calling out for Iggy, who was not surrounded at all. He just stopped and looked away. He showed the fly boys where Mom and Ella were, next I knew they were both dead. All I could do was keep fighting for myself and what was left of my flock. I saw Fang and Nudge both go down and feared for the worst, then I saw a flyboy pick up a struggling Gazzy., I screamed and tried to get to him but before I could so much as take two steps he was dead. They had snapped his neck.

All I felt was pain, both physical and emotional, it wouldn't stop. The physical pain was because I had stopped fight when Gazzy died. Now I was trying to fight back but it wasn't working out that well. I had pain shooting down my left arm and leg. I knew I had been raked by a flyboy while watching Gazzy. Then I was hit in the head and hard too, from behind and was glad when darkness overwhelmed me as I fell to the floor. But as I fell I saw Iggy just standing there totally unhurt and then turning to leave.

When I woke I found myself in Ella's room on her bed. Confused I tried to get up and was hit with not only pain but also the memories of what had happened. Nudge and Fang came over looking the worst I've ever seen them. They asked how I was and because no words could describe how I felt I let one single tear flow down my cheek and that's all.
