Shadow POV

"Shadow! Can we stay at a hotel tonight?" I looked back at the voice that was calling to me.

I sighed and called back, "Sure." The cheers that echoed up from my flock made me shake my head. We were on our way to a family reunion in Colorado after taking down a lab in Kansas.

I have a flock of five, six if you count me.

I looked back at my flock, and first was Zack, my right hand man, best friend and wing man. He is six four with sandy brown wings, Brown hair, and bright green eyes. His power is the ability to understand/write/speak any language, and it comes in handy when we go to other countries. He is also fifteen like me.

Next was Jenna, the 'holder of my heart', as Nudge and Angel put it. She had long, straight, brown hair, and thick sweeping bangs across her forehead. Her soft chocolate eyes met my eyes and I could see the happiness. She is able to force a person into a sleep, which they can not wake until she says and can place any object/person/image into their dreams. Jenna beat her snowy wings a few times and rose so she was next to me. A few months younger than me, she was still fifteen.

After her was Lily, Zack's girlfriend. Her straight brown hair whipping behind her and her shy brown eyes were glittering with happiness. Her light brown wing was brushing Zack's. Despite her shyness Lily was a strong asset to the flock, her determination showing though when faced with a challenge. Her power was to communicate and control any animal, as well as feel emotions.

After Lily was Tanner, who is thirteen, about five seven and had light brown hair and bright blue eyes, his strong gray wings able to keep up with the older members of the flock. His power is to locate anything/person with just a description.

Nestled in his arms was a three year old Jet, whose black wings were still not strong enough to support him for flying long distance. He is part fox as well as bird, and has furry black fox ears nestled in fluffy black hair.

If you're wondering about me, I am about six four and have long black hair that is pulled back in a low ponytail. I have my bangs still in my face, and have a long scar stretching at a slight angle across my right eyelid, which is only slightly open, I can't see out of that eye either. My wings are pitch black with white streaks and dark eyes. My powers do a lot with my name. Shadows. I can make illusions from the shadows and pull them over me, and a group if needed, and also if I pull them to the palm of my hand and concentrate them I can shoot them. It feels like a punch in the gut if I don't charge it for a long time, but if I gather a lot and push them in tight I can shoot them and have the effect of a bullet.

We landed silently in a forest out side a small town, and walked about a half mile to a small motel.

While the others stood at the door Jenna and I went to the counter.

"I need two rooms," I told the person behind the counter, a teenage boy about eighteen with stringy blond hair and a lot of pimples. I pulled out my wallet and the MAXRIDE card.

"Would you like to have those rooms connected?" the teen asked, not talking to me but Jenna's boobs.

I glared and wrapped an arm around Jenna's waist, flicking my hair out of my face, and reveling my bad eye, and the scar. The boy looked up when I cleared my throat, and paled, visibly swallowing.

I said in a deadly calm voice, "Yes we would like them connected."
Y-yes-s I-I'll d-do that-t," the teen stuttered, his hands shacking so badly he dropped the MAXRIDE Card. Diving down the teen retrieved it and quickly scanned the card. Placing the MAXRIDE card on the counter next to a clipboard, "P-please sign and fill out the next line,"
Grabbing the pen I signed Alexander Ride on the line, my middle and fake name. Filling out the room numbers I got and how long I'll be staying.

"Let's go, Alex," Jenna pulled my arm, grabbing the keys from the counter.

Glaring one more time I let my bangs fall back into my face, and walked over to the Flock, my arm tight around Jenna.

"Wow, man, That guy looked like he was going to piss his pants. Good job!" Zack said, patting me on the back.

I grunted and led the way to the rooms. After checking out the rooms we found that only one of them had two beds.

"You and Jenna share the first room while Lily and me will share with Tanner and Jet," Zack declared.

"It's Lily and I." I corrected, smirking when Zack muttered, "Smartass."

I nodded and followed Jenna into our room, setting our bags on the bed. I pulled out my laptop and Jenna down on the bed.

I sat down next to her and opened the blog, Fang's Blog. I had taken over it when my dad's web page design career took off.

We read through some of the responses I had gotten and laughed at all the 'love messages' that over flowed the inbox. Closing the laptop I stood and Zack came in, "If one of you wants to you can use the shower in our room."

Jenna grabbed her pajamas and followed Zack out of the room, leaving me to shower in our room.

Stepping into the bathroom I quickly undressed, and stepped into the shower, sighing when the hot water met my tense muscles. Feeling the water seep through my feathers I sighed, before quickly finishing my shower.

Stepping out of the tub I dried off and pulled on my boxers and pajama pants, not bothering to pull on a shirt.

I stepped out of the bathroom, and shook my head, feeling my wet hair slap my face, and sending water flying. At Jenna's giggle I turned and shot a smile at her, my wet hair flopping in my hair messily.

Walking over to the bed I pulled Jenna to me, and she wiggled her wings, the feathers tickling my chest.

I chuckled and turned Jenna to me, pressing my lips to hers. She reacted quickly and moved her lips against mine. I ran my tongue over Jenna's lip, and she granted me entrance. My tongue darted into her mouth and explored and soon started dancing with hers.

Gently rolling so Jenna was laying on top of me, I broke the kiss. Panting slightly, Jenna sighed and rested her head on my chest, gently tracing the scars that littered my chest and arms.

Slowly we drifted off, wrapped in each other's arms.

"Shadow!" I looked up as I pulled on a shirt, and Tanner burst through the door. "Can we stay here for a while?"

I sighed and grabbed my leather jacket that was given to me by my dad, and went into the room, where the others were feasting on the waffles from the complementary breakfast bar that Zack and Lily brought up.

"What do you think?" Zack asked, handing me a plate with three waffles on it.

I grabbed it and sat next to Jenna, and shrugged, "Sure."

Jet smiled from his place in the corner, he always liked going into the smallest areas.

After finishing my waffles I went back into Jenna and my room, and opened my laptop. To my surprise the Urgent Message symbol was flashing, a four flag urgency marking on it.

Opening the message I read though it.

Alex,

We are being attacked, come quickly.

Dad

Short and simple, I knew this was not a joke. Jumping up I ran into the there room and quickly said, "Pack up your things the others have been attacked and we need to get to the house now. There's trouble." As quickly as we could, which was pretty fast, considering our time on the run, we packed.

"Up and out," I ordered, and with rustle of feathers, we shot off into the sky.
