Author's Note: I only got one review this time? Come ON, people. I know you can do better.

Welcome to My Side of the River

Sonya

Iggy's POV

I watched Alexa go. Her question still rang in my mind. Why? Why were we hunting Nyx, when she so obviously wanted to be left alone?

I sat there, pondering the question until I heard a knock on my door. "Who is it?" I asked.

"It's Angel. Jeb said to tell you to get down to the conference room ASAP."

I opened the door. Six-year-old Angel stood on the other side. She frowned.

"That's actually a good question. Why are we hunting Nyx?"

Oh yeah. Angel could read minds. "I have no clue, but I intend to ask Jeb. Alexa brought it up."

"Do you think that she's working with Nyx?"

I thought about it. "I don't think so. She's always so shy, not to mention quiet. I keep telling her to ditch all the titles, and she won't even to that." I sighed. I hated being 'Prince Iggy' or 'Your Highness'.

We walked down to the conference room, where the rest of the Flock was already waiting. We took our seats, noticing the little four-year-old boy in the corner.

"Now, as you already know, Nyx made another appearance. I asked Nicholas here, whom she saved, to come here. Nick, please describe Nyx."

He did. She was tall, tan, with brown hair kept in a braid, had black eyes, wore black clothes, and had black wings. We had all heard this description before.

"Thank you, Nick. You may leave." The boy – Nick – left. "Any questions?"

I spoke. "Yeah. Why are we hunting Nyx in the first place? She isn't a criminal. In fact, she's our best justice system operative, even if it is unofficial."

Jeb hesitated before answering. "We are tracking Nyx because she is an experiment like you. I want to make sure that she isn't suffering because of Itex."

I saw straight through his lie. Luckily (Although not for Jeb), Max did too. "You mean that you want to study her more. Once a whiterobe, always a whiterobe, right Jeb?"

Jeb stormed out angrily, not even bothering to answer. He slammed the door behind him.

Which caused several lit candles to fall onto the highly flammable carpet.
