Alessa's POV
I could see a clear desert, with a sunset just above the horizon. I felt peaceful at once, just staring at the sun turn into deep orange ...
"Max ..." I heard a low, husky voice right next to me. I turned around and saw the boy named 'Fang.' He leaned closer, "I choose you ..."
* * * * * *
My eyes shot open on it's own. I didn't even know what woke me up but I think something was shot into me. Ugh, it hurts.
Right then, I felt a hand stroke my hair from behind me, I stiffen and sit up, turning around slowly. The same woman appeared again, the one with the black hair and whitecoat. "... Mom ? " A voice says in my head, it didn't cause another migraine but it totally shocked me.
"Huh?!" I jumped up from the sofa and step back, two, three steps backward. The woman stands up, an apologetic smile on her face, walking slowly towards me.
"It's okay, I'm a friend." her sweet, mother-like voice calls to me. It gave chills on my spine, my body relaxed. I compose myself and stand up straight.
"Where're my parents ?" was the question I had to ask, "Where am I ? Who are you ?" I just realized my voice was sounded shakey and scared.
She held her hands up as if to calm me down. "My name is Ms. Martinez, I'm the mother of Max."
Just when she said the name 'Max' did my eyes widen. The woman, Ms. Martinez, bit her lip. "You recognize that name, don't you?"
I raised an eyebrow, "I do, now, what the hell am I doing here? Why did you kidnap me?" I almost yelled.
"I will answer your questions one by one if you calm down. And we did not kidnap you, we're here to help you."
"By what ? Holding me in this cell for ransom ? Look, I'm not that rich but if you just bring me home, I'll give you my piggybank savings, S'that enough ?" Yeah, I was being bad-ass. Talk about Sarcasm.
She smiled and my heart just skipped a beat but I regained myself, my parents taught me to always stay on my guard if ever I were to be in danger. The woman giggled and coughed a little, "You're so just like her ..."
"Oh, like Max ? Sorry to disappoint you but I've got no wings, no blonde hair, and wait ... what's that got to do with me ?"
The woman hesitated and smiled again. "Alright, I'll make a deal-"
"Oh, god. First kidnap me then get me into drugs, this'll be something."
She shook her head and became serious this time, "Please just listen to me, I don't mean any harm."
I looked at her straight in the eyes and I decided to trust her, for a minute. I sighed, "Fine."
Hallway
Once I got out of the room, the place wasn't actually what I imagined.
It was some kind of cabin, like in the middle of a forest or something. Near a beach, and it looked beautiful.
The house looked so big, there were 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a large kitchen, a big entertainment room and a lot more. What is this ?!
"This is some kind of joke, right ?" I snorted and continued to look around, scanning for any hidden cameras or large bodyguards about kill you.
"No, Alessa." her voice making me feel all fuzzy inside, "This is the real world, it's much more peaceful now than before thanks to Max and her flock." She looked at the sunset across the ocean, spacing out. I followed her gaze and got lost in it too.
"Who ... is Max ? What am I to her ? What about this flock ? Is there actually a bunch of kids that have wings ?" I said aloud.
"Hmph, you've got that right." A low voice said. I turned and saw the guy I've been seening countless times in my dreams. It's really Fang.
My eyes widened and my senses totally got out of control, I didn't know what to think. My heartbeat raced on, "I know who you are, you're Fang."
His eyes narrowed, "You have no idea who I am." he hissed harshly, I felt my heart sink and I felt completely down.
"S-sorry ..." I muttered so low I don't think he heard.
"No need to apologize." His voice suddenly changed tone, a forgiving tone. I felt relieved.
Ms. Martinez held my shoulders, I stiffened again at the touch. "Alessa, this is Fang. You've seen him in your dreams haven't you ?"
I looked up at her, how did she know all this?!. "Uh, how did you know? Are you some kind of mind reader now?"
"No, no Alessa, as what I said awhile ago, I am a friend."
"Yes, yes ! You're the mother of Max, I get it. But how in the world did you know my dreams ?!" I shrugged out of her hold and stepped away from her. Fang caught me and held my shoulders, his hands hard as stone and so firm it hurt.
"You have to calm down, Alessa. We can't explain if you don't chill." His voice seemed so ... soothing.
I scowled anyway, that's how stubborn I am. Deal with it, "Alright."
The flock's room;;
OH. MY. HOLY. GOD. SAVE. ME.
This is really the flock, the flock, the flock, the flock, the flock. This is the flock. I recognize all of them;
Iggy, the blind guy with the strawberry blonde hair and awesome bomb skills. Nudge, the fashionable member and sassiest of all of them, Gazzy, the older brother of Angel and really good at micmicking voices and Angel, the gifted girl who could read minds.
Not to mention, Fang, the usually silent but actually sweetest guy in the world. The one who Max loves, and he loves her back.
I use to get jealous of Max because of that ... but now ...
I shook my head furiously, slightly distracted by the thought and returned back to earth.
Once I entered the room, the flock surprised me. "Alessa ! Alessa ! You're here !" and they gave me a big, really, really unexpected hug.
I saw Fang glare deadly at all of them but they ignored and held me tighter. After the hug, I blushed furiously and just waved, "Hi."
They all laughed at the same time, I flushed harder this time.
Angel grew taller, she looked different in my dreams. Actually all of them did, they grew older. But they still looked young;
"Alessa ! You look just like Max, oh how I miss her. Will you be my Max while she's asleep ? " she made a smile so sweet it made my heart melt.
Then, I bent down to her and caressed her cheek, "Of course, I will sweetie, I'm right here."
...
Erase that, That wasn't me. I didn't do that, that wasn't my voice. That was just ... just ... wrong.
Angel's eyes widened for a whole minute and her eyes got teary-eyed and hugged me tightly. She sobbed, "thankyou, Alessa." then she looked up at me, "... and thank you, Max." she added.
No, scratch that.
That was just wrong !
