Hey Guys. I know that some of you have been wondering what happened to my stories and why they suddenly disappeared. Someone had deleted all of my stories, and I no longer have access to the files, therefore I have no way to re-post them. I've decided to start writing again, after having not written because I was too upset with having all of my stories deleted. So please give me a second chance guys, please. Thanks for reading this and I hope you understand. Now, on to the story. I intend to make this my best one yet, combining all of my sotires together to make one, awesome epic story.

Thanks Swahili, for helping to inspire me for this story.

MAX'S POV:

I took a sip of soda, as I listened to Jeb talk. Honestly it wasn't really that interesting, so I was bored out of my mind as he babbled on.

"Everyone, I would like you to meet Kay, your new flock member. Come on in Kay."

I spit out my soda all over Fang and Iggy, who had the luck of sitting right in front of me.

Fang glared at me and wiped it off, then smirked and wiped it on Iggy.

"Hey I can feel that you know." He complained, trying to wipe it off.

I would've laughed if I wasn't still half in shock from Jeb's announcement.

In walked a girl, looking tense and unsure of herself, her eyes flickering to each one of us, then turning to Jeb and looking slightly irritated.

She was pretty; you had to give her that. She was tall and skinny, like the rest of us, and she stood up straight. Her hair was burgundy, falling in soft waves to just below her shoulders. Her bangs swept just above soft green eyes. She had a heart shaped face and full red lips, along with a tan complexion.

She stood next to Jeb, looking like she wanted to be anywhere but here. There was an awkward silence until Jeb broke it by clearing his throat.

"Like I said earlier, Kay is going to be your new flock member."

Jeb looked at me as he said this, probably wanting me to introduce ourselves. I stood up and held out my hand, smiling.

"Hi. I'm Maximum, but you can call me Max. This is Fang, Iggy, Nudge, The Gasman, and Angel. Welcome to the flock."

I tried to sound welcoming, but I don't think I did a very good job of it because she just looked at my hand as if it were poison or something.

Eventually she took it, slowly and hesitantly. "I'm Kay." She said softly, shyly.

"Now that you guys have introduced yourselves I must be going. I have some files to work on." Jeb nodded and left with that, leaving us standing around awkwardly.

"You look tired." I said, trying to break the ice.

She just shrugged, avoiding eye contact, mostly looking at the floor.

"Are you hungry or something?" Fang asked, breaking his silence.

Kay shook her head, still looking at the floor.

"Do you have wings?" Nudge asked, one of the shortest questions she'd ever asked.

Kay nodded, then spread them slowly.

They were beautiful. They were reddish brown with streaks and spots of black randomly placed in them.

"They're pretty." Angel said. "Mine are just white."

She beamed at Kay, who probably didn't see it because she was still staring at the floor.

"Is the floor that interesting?" Gazzy asked, probably wondering why she didn't look up.

"No…. I'm just nervous." Her voice was still soft, but had that kind of tone that you leaned in to hear.

"So she can talk. That's good. We don't need a mute and blind person in the group." Iggy stood up and stretched, then smiled at Kay.

Kay raised her head, half a smile on her face.

"You can go find a place to sleep if you want." I said, still curious about Kay and why she didn't talk that much.

"Thanks." She said, then left, most likely to do what I just said.

As soon as she was gone, Iggy asked the question I'd been waiting for him to say.

"Is she cute, pretty, hot, or what?"

I rolled my eyes and sat back down on the couch, grabbed my soda, and took another swallow.

Nudge described Kay, and I could practically see the drool coming out of his mouth.

"Let's watch a movie." Gazzy suggested. "Like Super 8 or something."

Everyone agreed that it was okay, and Iggy said he didn't care because he couldn't see it anyways.

About 2 hours later…..

KAY'S POV:

I heard the movie that Max and the others were watching finish and decided to get up.

I tucked some of my hair behind my ear and smiled slightly, remembering Iggy saying that they didn't need a mute and blind people in the flock, which basically meant he was blind.

I'd tried to sleep, but it didn't work very well because I was still tensed and nervous about the "flock" as Max put it.

I wasn't sure they'd accept me, even though they seemed to be nice people, I could still sense Max's distrust underneath her welcoming appearance.

I entered the room that I had met everyone in and saw everyone still there.

"Hi Kay. Did you sleep okay?" Angel asked, having somehow sensed I was in the room before the others.

I shrugged, and nodded once. I didn't like talking because of my power- at least one of them.

Max nodded, acknowledging that I was there.

Gazzy waved at me and smiled, Nudge doing the same thing, only a little bit more enthusiastically.

Fang dipped his head to me, and Iggy grinned.

"Why don't you talk that much? You're like Fang. He doesn't talk that much, and I don't think I'd be able to talk so little because then people wouldn't know like what you're thinking or anything except Angel-"

Max clamped her hand over Nudge's mouth, probably to prevent her from revealing all of the flock's secret. Her annoyance was obvious.

"I just don't like to." I answered her question, speaking quietly.

"Why not?" Max asked, narrowing her eyes.

I shrugged and felt the bitter taste of Max's distrust wash over me.

"Because I can't control when my power activates in it."

That was one of the longest sentences I'd said while I was here, and ever sense I found out I had the ability to make people do whatever I want, whenever I want, with just my voice.

"What power?" Max asked flatly.

"I can make people do whatever I want by asking or telling them."

I'd never revealed this much about myself to anyone.

So far I wasn't doing too good of a job at trying to fit in.

Max opened her mouth, probably to ask another question, when the front door literally flew off the hinges and all the way to the other end of the hallway.

"Come here, little birdies. Come out and play."
