I tossed Alex over to Fang and shot down after Madeline. She was dropping like a rock. "Mom!" she yells. I'm coming, baby, I think. I grab up under her armpits and take her in my arms. I wipe the tears from her face and ask, "Honey what happened?" She sniffles and replies, "My wing," I look over and notice her hand is on her right wing. "I think I broke it," she manages to choke out. "Its alright," I tell her. We fly back to the house where Fang and Alex are. "What happened?" He says to my as I carry Madeline through the door. "Its her wing," I tell him. He takes her and lays her on the kitchen table he cleared off. Fang gentle feels her right wing. His face looks steady and concentrated. "Ouch!" Madeline yells as Fang feels a new spot. "I'm sorry, Maddie," he says. "Fells broken," he says. "Broken?" I reply. "Yeah, " he says. He turns to look at Madeline's tight face. "No flying til this heals," he says.
"But-" she starts but Fang cuts her off. "I'll have to wrap it in a splint," he opens a medical box we have and starts working on her wing. "Where's Alex?" I remember that I tossed Alex to Fang before going after Maddie. "His room," Fang says, concentrating on the splint he was making. I walked upstairs and opened Alex's door. He was on the floor playing with his action figures. "Hi mommy," he says. He holds up a man in a blue power suit. "Wanna play?" I need to keep him out of Fang's way. "Sure," I say to him. I sit down and pick up a red action figure. I play with him but all I can think about are the two downstairs.
