The angel of charity (sorry my com. hates your pen name and won't let me put it) Ok, the chapter was blank at first because my computer was acting funny so I couldn't write anything and before I could fix it and publish the chapter, I was kicked off the computer :( Also I"m really glad you like it!

Winged Mysteries
Chapter 7
REVEIW REVIEW REVIEW!
(not to sound demanding...)
Fwap, catch, stomp, bend, umph, punch, duck, jump, crack, breath. My hair was damp from sweat and parts of it were so cold that it felt damp there too. My eyes were squinted in the frozen air and I could see my breath floating. I looked across the field at the enemy and shifted my feet for a better stance. Then, he came charging at me. I stood, ready for him. My fists in front of me, hair behind my head, shoes firmly planted on the ground. His strawberry blond hair eased through the wind and the knots were untangled by that fierce wind swiftly running past each strand.
I noticed his light blue eyes, glinting like metal, and I knew that was his weakness. He was blind, I wasn't. A grin slightly formed across my face as my last seconds came. Then he was on me in an instant, fingers interlocked so tight together to make a tough fist that would surely knock me out if they hit.
The first swing came, I ducked and grabbed his arm. Twisting it, I attempted to grab another portion, but wasn't quite fast enough. A millimeter of a second too late was just a millimeter too long.
I noticed as he loosened his arm from my grasp that he was aiming for my stomach, a smart and witty move... if your opponent doesn't realize it.
I waited for the swing to come, then caught it, bent it in a different way so he couldn't loosen away, and then I felt a fwap. It was a slightly tough one across the face. I backed up a bit on that one, and he used his advantage on me while he had the chance.
I knew right then what I had to do.
I jumped, straight over his head, my back twisted and my body swiftly flying in the air, I need not even open my wings. I looked, while in the air to notice that I had made the right move, for if I hadn't done that, he would have nailed me.
I silently landed behind him, using my advantage this time. His ears were listening intently and he seemed to flinch just too late, for I knocked him down, hearing a satisfying crack, and nailed him.
I hovered over him, breathing heavily. My damp hair hung down, yellow/ brown silky hair, falling on his face. I could smell his breath, hear his panting. Then, I was surprised by a kiss. I jumped up and noticed a grin on his face. I spat on the ground and he nailed me down.
"Still can't beat me can you Max?" Iggy stood up, letting down a hand to help me up.
I rolled my eyes lucky to know that he couldn't see me blushing after the kiss. I knew Iggy didn't like me, he likes Nudge, but it's still embarrassing. We both laughed and I grabbed his hand, pulling him onto the ground. I made an attempt to let myself up when doing this, but I just fell and we started histarically laughing.
Finally, we both stood up and I socked Iggy in the stomach. "By the way," I commented, "you've never beat me before." I looked him square in the eye hoping to look intimidating, but Iggy just smirked and remarked,
"Actually, I have beat you before once, and I just beat you now didn't I?" His blue eyes were dancing in the thin light that shone through the morning clouds. He was hard to get mad at, let alone not want to fall in love with. Of course, I still didn't like him.
"I let you beat me that time, and this time, a fly distracted me..." I turned around hoping for no more comments, which Iggy did. Even if I was turned the other way, however, I could tell he rolled his eyes at me.
I found my mother scurrying around our house when Iggy and I got back inside. She had two inch heels on and a tight red dress. Her blond hair was tied up in a bun and bright red lipstick stuck out on her pale face. She was talking on the phone and dodged Gazzy as he made another big mess in the kitchen. I could tell my mother was looking for her purse.
I looked besides the counter where I took off my shoes and saw a black leather bad sitting and tossed it lightly to my mom. She shot me a look that both said, "Where have you been and what happened?" while also saying "Thank you" I grabbed a comb and quickly brushed my hair that ran down my back in waves. I found it cool of my mom to let all my abnormal friends live with us. Especially Gazzy.
I looked disappointedly toward Gazzy who was making some kind of smoothy with the lid off and my mother yelled over her shoulder, "YOU'RE CLEANING THIS UP!" as she ran out the door. I grabbed a mop and tossed Iggy a rag while Nudge got the broom and Angel attacked Gazzy. Flour was making another layer on out wooden floor which Nudge promptly went to broom up, Iggy went to turn the blender off and clean up the purple liquid on the counters, ceiling, and walls. I mopped the floor after Nudge and put away the dishes and after we were all finished, we went out to practice fighting.
"Uh hu. Right. Ok. Great. Buh by." Nudge hung up the phone then looked straight at me with her face frozen and shocked. I wiped my hands off on a kitchen towel then Iggy ran into me.
"Watch where you're going blindy!" I teased. Then noticing Nudge again I walked over to her to check if she was breathing. I wasn't sure, but I think she wasn't.
"What happen Nudge?" I asked cautiously and slowly.
"I just got off the phone," Nudge began.
"Really? Tell me more, because, that explains so much!" Iggy rolled his blind eyes and walked into the other room ignoring Nudge.
"What I was going to say," Nudge continued looking less frozen and more paranoid, "is that I got off the phone with a guy about us." She looked me in the eye and I knew she meant about us, having wings.
"Go on..."
"And, well, he's from the lab. He's undercover though. Apparently he helped make us," Nudge gestured to her whole body showing me that she meant he helped give us wings and RUIN our lives. I looked at her as in to say to carry on. "He is sorry for what he did, and wants to help us stop the Erasers... from their next experiment. He knows a place that they never go, and wants us to train with him."
I crossed my arms to think. How could we trust him? This is stupid! He might just be trying to lure us into a trap. After all, he DID make us too! He's just as guilty as the Erasers! I was about to shake my head and ask Nudge why she even told me because it was obvious that I would say no, until she said,
"Their new project, is to take orphans from all around the world, combine them with other animals and DNA, and..." I had my eyes wide open at what I just heard. They were gonna WHAT? Nudge continued. "use the creature to hunt us down, rip out our wings, blind us, and test us on something so bad, he couldn't tell me." I closed my eyes trying not to imagine the pain. Closing my eyes didn't help though. Instead, it gave me a better image. What could they possibly gain from this? "Besides that," Nudge continued some more and I felt I was gonna through up. "Angel is their first target. They already have her." Nudge this time looked away. She didn't even know what I was going to say.I didn't either.
ANGEL! Wait, they already have Angel! "Wait, where's Angel?" Nudge suddenly realized it too.
"ANGEL! ANGEL! ANGEL ARE YOU THERE?" We ran into the other room where she last attacked Gazzy. She wasn't there. "Gazzy!" Nudge cried in tears. "Where'd Angel go?" Gazzy looked up at us in confusion and told us that she left for ballet already. BALLET! I totally forgot that we were supposed to take her to ballet today. She must have flew there. Nudge broke into tears and Iggy came running into the room.
"What happen?" Iggy asked, but we were already on our way.
Sorry! God that was a horrible cliff hanger. Don't get mad! Short chapter too but I'm holding out for the next chapter! Please review. I might need an OC or two for my next chapter so give me your ideas. Sorry, also ahead of time, because I don't really do first come first serve, but if I run out of time I'll use yours anyway!
