This is my very first story. I hoped you liked the first chapter. I had some trouble figuring some parts out, but there it is! If you could give me your ideas or comments then that would be great. I really want your opinions!

Thanks!

Chapter 2

"Max?"

"Maax?"

"Max, wake up."

"Come on, Max."

"Fang, she's not waking up."

Someone sighed

"Wait! I think she's waking up, she blinked!"

"Nudge…that was you."

"Oh,"

I groaned and slowly opened my eyes. All I saw was white, and black spots, but eventually I could see deep black eyes.

"Fang?" I croaked, blinking against the bright lights in the room. "What happened?"

I tried to sit up, but Fang held me down.

"No no no, don't move." He put his hands on my shoulders and gently laid me back down on the hard ground.

"What? Why?"

Fang looked at me like I was stupid.

"What?" I asked again completely clueless.

"Max you were shot." Fang said in a low voice, "Remember?"

Oh.

Me.

Shot.

Falling.

Ground.

Ouch.

I looked down at my stomach, and saw that someone had wrapped our windbreakers around my torso. I touched my where the bullet wound was, and winced when my finger went deeper than it should go. Blood was soaking through the jackets, and I felt the warm liquid trickle down the sides of my stomach. It hurt a little, but I've been through this before, just not on my stomach where all the important stuff is.

Then I remembered something

"What happened to the Erasers?" I asked, looking around the Flock.

They all ducked their heads and turned from me, ashamed, so I couldn't see their faces. That's when I noticed that everything was white.

We were in a room.

A white room.

No windows.

Oh…

We were at the school.

Crap.

"What happened?" I asked looking at the top of the Flocks heads, except for Fang. He was brave enough to look at my hard expression, "I want to know now."

Each of their heads slowly lifted upward till they all were looking at me with sheepish expressions on their face. They all looked at each other, before Angel got that "I'm a brave little girl" face and started talking.

"Okay, so you know how you got shot and then you, like started to fall?" she asked

I nodded, "Yeah, wait how am I not dead? I should be dead."

"Max, I caught you." Fang said looking at me like I finally lost it, "Don't you remember?"

"I remember something catching me but I thought it was the ground." I rubbed my throbbing head. Was Fang the hard ground?

"Anyways," Angel said trying to catch our attention, "So Fang caught you. We landed after that to try and see what exactly happened, and then the Erasers showed up. All of them. You were hurt and passed out so we had to come with them or risk losing you."

I frowned at that. I was about to argue, but Iggy cut me off.

"And we weren't about leave you Max."

Nudge used this as her opportunity to bounce in, "Yeah, I mean, no offense Fang, but I don't think anyone could be as good as a leader as you. Max, you're the head honcho, and no one can take your place, we wouldn't survive."

I couldn't argue with them. They weren't going to budge. Sighing, I tried to sit up, but the Flock all pushed me back down and yelled, "No!"

"Why not?" I argued.

Didn't they just say that I was the leader? Guess that only was a one minute deal.

"You still have the bullet in you." Iggy explained looking in my direction.

"Then get it out."

Gazzy's eyes went wide, "How are we supposed to do that?"

"I don't know." I said shrugging my shoulders, "Improvise."

"Max, we can't." Iggy said

"We?" Nudge asked carefully

Iggy rolled his sightless eyes, "Okay, fine. I can't do that."

I sighed in frustration, and ran an agitated hand through my hair.

"Great, now I get to have a date with the Whitecoats." I said in mock joy

Max." Fang said that low, sometimes creepy, voice of his, "We aren't letting them take you or any of us."

"Yea!" Nudge whooped loudly and pumped her fist in the air

"Nudge," Fang said warningly. He looked around the room in case the Whitecoats overheard us. I rolled my eyes at his protectiveness. It's not like they don't know we're here.

"Oops, sorry." She whispered sheepishly

I smiled at her and patted her hand. She smiled timidly back.

I was about to start making usual my round of orders, when all of the sudden the door slammed open and a herd of Erasers rushed in, followed by four Whitecoats.

Great.

And the date begins.

So….how was it? I really want your opinions! Any opinion! Even whether or not you like tacos! :-) But I really do want your opinion! Oh! And I love it when people give me ideas! Sorry to all you Fax lovers. :-( I tried to put Fax in here, but it wasn't working right, but I promise that there will be Fax!! …and some Iggy pairings for those of you who are in love with our favorite pyro boy!

Thanks!
