Here's another chapter freakin' REVIEW and tell me if it's crap....or possibly if it's good. Either way I don't mind.
"Holy shit! You're Fang too aren't you?" I was pretty much hyperventilating at that point. I loved Fang's blog, like I checked it every single day and did all I could to help our world (hence the bicycle rides.)
"And you are Hayden." Max said. I smiled.
"Hayden Knapp." I said proudly.
"No way!" Fang exclaimed, "I saw a video of you on Youtube. You were at like some huge competition."
"Yeah, Junior Nationals." I said blushing slightly, "Hey! You guys should come to my house for dinner tonight. Bring everyone. My dad will probably be gone, but my mom and my twin, Ashton, will be home. You guys could even stay the night, we have plenty of room."
"We can't do that." Max replied sounding suspicious.
"Come on!" I pleaded, "Don't you want a nice, hot shower, clean clothes, plenty of food?"
They looked at each other, and then they looked at me and nodded. I don't know what happened in that one look, but I was ecstatic.
"Sweet!" I shouted and punched the air with my fist.
************
After I finished with the groceries, I told them to follow me on my bike to my house. Once they found out where it was they could go get the rest of the flock and bring them here.
It was nice feeling the wind whipping in my face. I loved speeding down the winding road that led to my house. I knew that I was going incredibly slow to Fang and Max, so I pushed myself to go faster and faster. I felt free in that moment, I was speeding through this winding road with the wind tossing my hair back and the sun warming my face. It was just a happy moment. Wow, I sound high.
When I pulled in the driveway of my ranch house I saw Max and Fang come to a running stop on our front lawn. They were so beautiful, and their wings were so majestic. I envied them a little bit, but then I realized what a hard life they had and I dismissed my envy.
"It's alright to be jealous of our wings." An angelic voice came. I whipped around to see a little blond haired girl with pure white wings. Angel. "You don't have to envy our lives, just our ability to fly."
"Okay I will." I said sincerely. I liked having someone being able to read my mind. I know it sounds weird, but all my life I have grown up without speaking out. I hardly ever say what's on my mind, I am just out going and like to talk to people. I hold back half the things I want to say because I don't want people to laugh at what I have to say.
I understand Hayden. I think you and me will get along real well. Angel said in my mind. I jumped in surprise, and then I nodded.
"How did everyone know where to come?" I asked and then realized the answer. Even though I was pushing my speeds they had left and got everyone then came back. I stared at the flock. Nudge was one of the prettiest girls I had ever seen. She had like chocolaty colored skin and her hair was so curly it stuck out in all directions. I think what struck me the most was the innocence in her eyes. I know that she had seen a lot, but somehow she still looked young.
I assumed that Iggy was the other tall one beside Max and Fang. He was very handsome. His pale blue eyes were sightless and yet they were still fixed on me. I was fascinated, but not in a creepy way. His strawberry, blond hair almost glowed in the sun and I think it made him look very pale.
Next, was the Gasman. He was such a young kid it broke my heart. Actually it broke my heart seeing all of them here. Max, Fang, and Iggy were all fourteen like me. Nudge was eleven, Gazzy eight, and Angel six.
"Here let me show you inside." I said finally. I blushed because I had stared so long at them. I felt bad.
I led them into my garage as I put my bike away. When I opened the door to my house I immediately closed it again.
"Can you give me like three minutes?" I asked desperately. Without waiting for an answer I ran inside real quick and closed the door on them. I stared horrified at Ashton's smelly hockey gear strewn across the laundry room floor. Desperately I tried to kick it all to the side and when that didn't work I started freaking. This is exactly what I needed, Ashton's hockey gear to scare them away.
"Ashton you home?" I shouted at the top of my lungs.
"Yeah, what do you want?" He asked waltzing in.
"Get your hockey crap out of my sight. We have very, very, very important guests today."
"Well just to let you know, we are on our own tonight. Mom left after my game to go 'fix her marriage' with dad in a hotel room all weekend. Joy!" I couldn't help but smile. Ashton and I were so alike it wasn't even funny, well sometimes it was, but that's not the point.
"And who are these very special guests?"
"Oh, just Maximum Ride and her flock." I said smugly. He was just as in love with Fang's blog as I was.
"No freakin' way!" He shouted. "Where are they?"
"Right here." I said as I yanked open the door.
************
After we were all acquainted, it was decided that Max, Fang, Ashton, and I were going for a walk. Iggy was going to stay home and cook with Nudge, Angel, and Gazzy to help him around. We were just walking down a sort of nature path, when a crazy guy ran right up to us.
"Oh look, what a pretty girl." He said, stroking my cheek. I was scared to death at this point.
"Get away from my sister!" Ashton cried threateningly.
Without warning, the crazy man pulled out a syringe and jammed it into my neck. I screamed in pain. I felt like everything was on fire. I know pain, I fall so many times on the ice everyday that I have like permanent bruises. This was so intense that my legs crumpled and I started to fall forward and I couldn't stop myself. Strong arms wrapped around my waist and yanked me to my feet.
"What the hell did you just inject them with?" I think Max asked, but I couldn't be sure. Them? I looked over and saw Ashton writhing in pain just like I was.
"This is our newest creation. Hope you have room in your flock for two more kids." He cried and then without warning he pulled out a gun and shot himself. I screamed. I had never seen anyone dead and bloody. Hell, I had never seen anyone shoot themselves!
"What is going on?" I whimpered.
"I don't know." I quiet voice said in my ear. It was Fang, and with that I passed out in his arms.
*sigh* who doesn't want to pass out in Fang's arms? Well unless you wanted to be awake in them....
