Hey! Sorry it's been so long! My computer is having some problems and I've been SO busy. Stupid programs. This will be a short crappy chapter but whatever. I really feel like updating. To anyone wondering about Dragon: She will come in later. Just hang on. I'm writing her thoughts so that you'll understand a little bit about where she comes from. OK.
Wulfgar: Could you please get rid of him? gestures to Bunny gar
Who are you-? AAAAAAAAH! OK. Here is the chapter.
Max's POV
"Come on," I said impatiently to Nudge. She was poking around the edges of the clearing one last time. Despite my announcement that we were leaving about five minutes ago, she was still dawdling. Gazzy leaped into the air and I stared at the back of Nudge's head impatiently.
"Let's GO!"
"I'm coming. I just thought…y'know maybe-" She saw the look on my face and jumped into the air. I wasn't sure why yet but I could sense that danger was close. We had to leave. I could feel it in the air, a kind of tension. I followed her into the air, rising quickly to meet the flock.
"We'll keep heading East," I announced, basically stating the obvious as they were already beginning to fly in that direction. I felt better in the air. We were heading away from whatever perils lay below and we were flying closer and closer to finding our parents. Well…their parents. But I could deal.
Scorpius' POV
I was panicking and Mantis took over for a moment while I regained control. He threw Cloud and Tiger into the air. Did I know she could do that? He and Kairi remained on the ground. But what were we supposed to do? AH! Why did my brain have to pick now of all times to fall apart. But suddenly the Eraser was acting strangely. He seemed to cup his hand around his ear and then his mouth formed words but nothing came out.
He gestured to the other Erasers and they just dropped Jaguar and walked away. WHAT! Had I been transported to another world in my sleep? This was NOT NORMAL! Kairi looked freaked out. No, scratch that last. We all were freaked out. I shook my head, trying to clear it and ran to Jaguar. Here was something that made sense. They had beaten him up pretty badly. I glanced up at Mantis, making a fast decision.
"You take the others, fly west. We'll meet you in …Tipisco Arizona?" We had all been to Tipisco. It was the best place for dumpster diving. Although it wasn't too convenient considering where we were and the distance, it was the best I could come up with.
"But Scorpius! I don't…"
He didn't finish his sentence, just rose into the air, dragging Kairi with him and herding she, Tiger, and Cloud into the sunset. I looked back as Jaguar began to stir. Man, he was going to take some time to heal.
Eraser's POV
This was impossible! They order me to do everything in my power to annihilate the second flock and then just when I'm finally doing what they want they change their minds! Damn the Director and all her precious scientists! Couldn't they give a direct order every now and then! Chase the first flock! No, I mean the second flock! Oh! Now we need you to abort that mission and come help us with the wild subject! I don't know what they're talking about. But as usual I have to obey.
"This is a good opportunity to finally recapture this subject!" the Director hissed through my earpiece, "DON'T mess it up!"
I grit my teeth. Of course I know not to mess up! Who does she think I am! I freeze, detecting motion in a tree only about twenty yards away.
"That's her," the Director whispers, "we want her alive." I nod to myself, beginning to grin and forgetting my earlier frustration.
Dragon's POV
Oh no. I see. Bad Wolf. He there. Stare at me. No. Bad. I don't want him to catch me. Climb tree. Be safe. Stay Away.
AAAAAH! A crappy chapter to be sure, but still a chapter. Hope you liked it!
