MAX POV
Ugh. Fang thinks he knows everything. Well he doesn't! I hate him so much right now.
Flashback
"Max, you should've went after Nudge. The flock could've handled the erasers on their own."
I looked up from Nudge and over to Fang in surprise.
"What? So this is my fault now?"
"Well if you just went after her, her injury wouldn't have been that bad. Besides we had Ashley with us, so she could've taken your place in the fight."
I froze.
Taken my place.
She
Could
Take
My
Place.
"Oh well excuse me. Who died and made you such a jerk?" I said, being sure to watch my language with Angel around.
Fang glared his death glare. Then he went back to building a fire with Iggy.
I sighed. Sure it wasn't a big fight.
But it was a big one.
With Fang.
"I'm sorry if I caused any trouble by coming here." Said a voice.
I looked up and met Ashleys' eyes.
I sighed. I know how it feels to feel like everything is your own fault.
So, I guess me and her are kind of in the same position.
"No. You didn't. Fang is just really strange some times." I held back a smirk, knowing he could hear me. She nodded and smiled at me. I smiled back.
"I'll go collect some fire wood." Then she left.
I turned back to Nudges pale body. She really was hurt. We were all doing our best to help her. Maybe we should get her to a hospital….
End of Flashback
I looked around.
Ashley and Fang were sitting by the fire talking about something.
Angel was sitting by Nudges body, talking comforting words to her in case she could hear them. Total was sitting on Angels lap.
Iggy was fidgeting with his hands, while sitting by the fire.
Then I heard a yawn.
I quickly jumped up and ran over to Nudge. She slowly opened her eyes.
"Nudge!" I cried. (It's a figure of speech. I didn't really cry. Just getting that straight.)
"Max. Angel. How long was I out?" She asked weakly.
"A couple hours." Angel replied.
"I'm tired. Can I go to bed?"
"Yes sweetie, you can." We all made a bed for her over by the tree.
Fang, Ashley, and Iggy were already standing over us. Iggy picked Nudge up and carried her over to the tree. She said something into his ear. He hesitated then nodded. He laid Nudge down then laid down next to her and put his arm around her.
I looked around again. Fang and Ashley were talking again, discussing something.
Take your place.
The words echoed inside my head like drums.
I have to get out of here.
Good luck Ashley.
Angel was playing with Total, while sitting across from Fang and Ashley.
She suddenly looked up.
"NO!" She cried.
This caused Fang and Ashley to look up in alarm.
But I was already in the sky, flying away.
