A:N: Well, Aero maiden reviewed me, as well as booklover 98. I have some things to say, questions to answer.
Aeromaiden: Rose is a very trusting person, and Fang would probably give off that 'I have nowhere don't talk to me' sort of vibe. I don't understand why the dialogue confused you in the 2nd chapter. Finally…Fang's not a freaking rock. He's gonna cry. Thank you very much.
Booklover98: Why does Fang freak you out?
About Nudge…Well she should be back by the end.
Max POV
Singing birdies. Why not. Iggy and Nudge could get together and I'd be fine with it.
"No you wouldn't." A small voice said from my doorway. Angel was standing there, big surprise, holding Celeste, her stuffed angel bear.
"I wouldn't what sweetie?" I asked calmly.
"If Iggy and Nudge were together you wouldn't be okay with it. You'd get mad and stomp around and not tell anyone like always." I had no idea how she said that so calmly.
"Why do you hate the world, Max?" Angel asked very quietly. Oh my, she looked like the most adorable thing on earth right then, walking towards me hugging her toy closer. She was just a kid.
"I don't." I answered, lying. I should've known that wouldn't work.
"Sometimes you do. And you hate Fang, and Dylan." Angel climbed up onto my lap.
I sighed heavily. This was tough. "I hate the world sometimes because it's forcing me to save it, I hate Dylan because he always seemed suspicious and I just naturally hate him. I HATE Fang because he was an absolute, total, awful, freaking jerk."
"It's Dylan's fault." Angel told me strongly. My head snapped up. What? She heard. "Dylan was the reason Fang left. But I didn't want to tell you, because it would hurt you even more, and you can't be a good leader hurt!" Angel finished loudly.
"Angel, I" I tried to say something, but she cut me off.
"No Max, you have to go find Fang or I'll go! I think Dylan knows where Fang went! Fang left because Dylan said if he didn't you'd get hurt." Angel huffed.
"That's what he said?" I asked incredulously.
"Yes! Now go! WE have to find Fang!" My little girl was quite angry, it seemed.
"You're right." I said, a smile creeping onto my face. "You're absolutely right."
That's how I ended up going into the back yard, yelling with Angel by my side.
"Okay, the 3 of you! Inside! Let's go! Come on! Move your butts!" Yes, the Flock had migrated (snicker) to the backyard.
3 lazy people walked into the house. Gazzy looked happy. Nudge was babbling her head off to Iggy, who was promptly ignoring her.
"Nudge!" Iggy yelled, finally fed up. "Shut up a little bit." Nudge looked hurt.
"Let me guess," Gazzy said excitedly. "We're gonna go find Fang now!"
"Sorta." I said warily.
"Meaning?" Iggy asked impatiently.
I sighed. This was NOT easy. "Okay, Angel will be listening for Dylan's thoughts while we fly. When she hears Dylan, she'll lead us that way. I don't know where he's going, but I think Fang might be there. So we're going. In two hours."
"2 hours! But that's not right! What if some evil person finds Fang and then us, then we'd all get hurt and that wouldn't be good, I mean, Gazzy and Angel are still small, and I am too, Iggy's blind, your heart hurts, and then it would just be worse for all of us! Fang especially, cause" Thank you Iggy.
"Nudge, just get ready." I said quietly. She headed for the room she shared with me and Angel. Gazzy and Iggy went for their own room.
"It'll be okay Max." An innocent voice reached my ears.
"I hope so Ange. But, how about we mess around before we go?" Angel gave me a confused look read my thoughts, and smiled.
She jumped on my back and I ran outside and spun in circles, running around, just to hear her laugh and having a good time.
It was like the old days. But those days are gone.
A.N: Yes, it's short, and I'm sorry about that. But this chapter was just destined to be short and sweet. I want to know how I did. If you have questions or things to say to me, review and I'll answer next chapter. I except anonymous reviews by the way.
Now, Nudge isn't back yet, but she should be in, I dunno, 5, 4, 3, 2
Nudge: AH! EWEWEWEW!
Me: She was helping my mom clean.
Nudge: There was a SPIDER!
Me: Nudge, you lived you rwhole life being chased down by evil scientists and you're afraid of a spider?
Nudge: YES!
Me: Note to self: When scared, Nudge says less words, but she says them louder.
Nudge: OH! A story chapter! I wanna see! I mean, I read the plans and stuff, but I wanna read it. But you're gonna say no, then you're gonna check it while I read over you're shoulder, then you're gonna publish it, then you're gonna go have ice cream
Me: I already checked it, and I'm NOT going to eat ice cream!
Nudge: But it's 7:30! That's ice cream time!
Me: UGH! Then go get yourself a bowl.
Nudge: YAY! (runs off to get ice cream)
Me: I think the A.N.s longer than the story…oops.
