Max POV
I woke up to yet another day without Him. Him meaning Fa, Fan, God I can't even say it. Fang. It had been five and a half years since He had died in the big battle against Itex. He had left and we had followed, finding Him and others fighting Itex's army. He had saved me. I could still remember Him yelling my name, the bang of the gunshot that ended His life. He had only been fourteen. I got up and pulled on jeans and a t-shirt. My wings were bedraggled.
" Max. Breakfast," Iggy yelled. I almost ran into Angel who was passing past my room. She was now twelve.
" Morning Max," she yawned. "Hi Angel," I hugged her.
"Gazz get up" I called through his closed door. Gazzy is now fourteen and beginning to get his teeny attitude.
"Whatever," he called. I opened his door and saw him sitting on his bed. Clutching a photo in his hands. I walked over and sat down next to him. A fourteen alive Him stood smiling next to a nine year old Gazzy. My heart was ripped open. A tear slid down Gazzy's cheek. He and Gazzy had their wings out and his wings were dark with a purplish glow. I clutched my locket where a picture of Him and one of his feathers were kept.
"Gazz you okay," I asked him. " He left us Max. He left us, then he died," Gazzy whimpered.
"Max for petes sake breakfast is ready," Iggy yelled.
" Com'on lets go," I took Gazzy's hand. He put the photo down and left with me. Passing Nudges room I saw her kissing a framed picture. Nudge was now sixteen and the biggest fashion diva in the world. She left and I sneaked a peak. The whole flock was in the picture. He and I were in the back. Grinning, completely unaware of what was gonna happen. I could clearly see His arm around my waist. Iggy could see now. One minute he was walking around and then well The Gasman played a prank on Iggy. Gazzy threw a lamp or something at Ig and Iggy sidestepped. He had yelled watch it, then it hit all of us. Angels photo was behind her door. I opened my locket and stared at Him. His gorgeous black eyes, dark longish hair and olive tinted skin made tears well In my eyes. He had been mine but now he was gone. Nudge cried for days, Iggy and Gazzy became like anti- pyro, Angel became catatonic and I just sat in my room and stared at his picture.
Flash Back
Max POV
Erasers were everywhere. Flyboys, M-geeks and dumb bots too. I was fighting hard. My clothes splattered with blood. Angel was using mind control, Iggy and Gazzy bombs and me, Nudge and Fang fighting skills.
Fang POV
I saw the director take out a gun and point it at Max. "Max," I yelled. I surged forward shoving Max out of the way. The gunshot cracked and pain exploded in my chest. Everything flickered and then went black.
Max POV
"Fang," I shrieked. He was falling. Nudge and Gazzy caught him. I plummeted down. Landing clumsily I ran towards his side. Fang was limp.
" NO," I screamed. Holding him against me feeling the warmth drain from him. I cried into his hair. Iggy and Angel landed. Angel started bawling.
" No god no. They didn't no," Iggy stuttered. He musta only heard five heartbeats and realized it. He held Nudge against him and cried too. I stroked Fangs cheek. His face was losing any color it had ever had.
