Thank you for your feedback. And here is the next chapter ;-)
I was running through the undergrowth of the forest. Erasers were chasing my, but it wasn't like I could fly away from them; I didn't have my wings. What a disaster!
Maximum… the Voice started, but I wasn't paying attention. Who wants to pay attention to a little Voice in their head when they're running away from the most dangerous things on the planet? Certainly not me...
I dropped fast into the sand when my legs wiped out on me. I wasn't a human-avian hybrid anymore, I realized, my muscles couldn't take this kind of strain. But if I wasn't one, why did I still have the Voice in my head? I didn't know.
But what about Fang? The rest of the Flock? Oh, no. What if I never was a hybrid like the rest of them were? What if they didn't remember me? Does that mean that the Erasers didn't want me anymore?
I decided that that was the case; the Erasers probably weren't after me. They might be after Fang or the rest of the Flock. Maybe someone else? I could feel my heart racing in my head, my lungs sucking oxygen out of the air.
Then, a moment later, I was being lifted off the ground by strong arms. I didn't know who it was, but the arms didn't feel hairy like an Eraser's. I decided this wasn't a bad guy. I closed my eyes before figuring out who it was, and let myself be carried away from the half-wolves.
And then we were in the air. My Flock. I finally opened my eyes only to see Fang's dark ones staring into mine. Did he remember me?
"Fang?" I whispered, still out of breath. I wanted to see if he still knew me. I wasn't sure what he was going to answer now.
"Do I know you…?" he started, but I leaned my head up and kissed him full on the lips. Maybe this would help.
For a moment, Fang resisted. Then he kissed me back, a long, serious kiss. When he pulled away his cheeks were flushed from the airless kiss.
"Max?" he whispered, before I woke up.
A/N: Finally, I got another chapter up! I am so proud of myself. Anyway, please review for future chapters. :-)
