Director POV.
"So you're telling me you did not get the Maximum Ride here? Under my orders you had not gotten a pregnant teenager captured?" The red headed director paced in front of her desk, interrogating an eraser.
"Ma'am we-"
"SILENCE! I sent you over there to get Maximum ride…a simple experiment. You went over there with hundreds of MY droids and got most of them killed, and accomplished nothing?"
"No ma'am…we got this and this done." She looked at the photos they had and nodded.
"Ah…the blind one…very well. He will be good enough for now." The director sat behind her desk once again. "And leave your things…I'd like to examine them. Is this really the blind one…the one that heals them all?"
"Yes ma'am"
"Very good. You may go." She watched as the eraser put everything down…three large bags of evidence. "Very good." She said smiling to herself.
Fang POV.
We left where the attack was…I had to c-carry Iggy's body s-somewhere better to bury-bury him.
I couldn't stop from believing that Iggy was dead…b-because now he's lying there, his chest wasn't moving, his heart wasn't beating, no breath could be heard.
I couldn't stop myself from crying this time.
Mr. No-emotion Fang was crying and couldn't do anything about it.
We finally got to a random place in Oklahoma and I gently laid Iggy on the ground.
The three girls were bawling and me and Gazzy were both sad…but we didn't cry anymore.
Me and Gaz flew over to a store, totally silent, and bought two shovels.
We started digging…digging and digging. I could hear the girls whispering and then sobs. I looked over at them and Max was consoling Nudge…but whatever Max said Nudge would cry even harder.
I felt a lump in my throat but swallowed it back down.
No more crying…you have to be strong for the Gasman and the girls. No…no more crying damn it.
I held back more tears as Max let tears spill over her eyes and down her cheeks. Her hair was a mess and her eyes, puffy, red and swollen.
Me and the Gasman finished the hole and I went to the girls. Max looked up at me.
I could have lost it right there. She looked absolutely miserable, she looked so sad I even let out a small quiet whimper.
I could stand any of the littler kids crying…I could even take it when Iggy broke down and sobbed for hours…but when Max cried, the one girl that meant most to me in the world cried...
She stared at me with her bloodshot, glossy eyes. The happy light brown now turning a heartbreaking grayish color.
Then, I did lose it. I grabbed her hands and brought her up in a standing position.
I put my hands on her shoulders and looked at her eyes again. She blinked twice and a tear came streaming down her cheek.
And pulled her into a tight hug and she put her head into my shoulder and cried. The sound of her cries made me want to cry my eyes out with her.
I wanted to make everything alright…but nothing could make this any better.
The shoulder part of my shirt soon became soaked and I came down towards her ear.
"I'm sorry this happened…there were just too many flyboys." She nodded on my shoulder.
"I love you." I breathed into her ear.
"I-I love you too-oo." She looked up at me and gave me a small, depressed smile.
I kissed her forehead and went back over to the gasman and the hole.
I gently grabbed up Iggy's body again and laid it in the whole. I folded his hands on his stomach and sure his eyes were all the way closed…he-he looked like he was sleep-sleeping.
Everyone came around the hole and looked down at Iggy. Max was holding Nudge close, Gazzy was holding his sister close and I was alone.
Angel stepped up.
"Iggy…I love you and I won't ev-ever forget you. You always were my favorite 14 year old brother. I'll miss you-." Her voice cracked at the end. My heart twanged with sadness…why was Iggy her favorite?
Cause your more of my dad…you and Max are my mom and dad that I've always wanted. I-Iggy was my broth-brother.
I frowned and felt my eyes sting. No more fucking crying.
I told myself over and over again.
Then, I thought I'd lose it again. Gazzy gave angel to me and he went up to Iggy's grave.
"Hey Ig…I-I'm sorry you had to go this way. I always thought you were going to cut the wrong wire on one of our bombs or something…" He forced a small, depressed laugh. "I'll never forget you…you were my role model, my brother, my best friend-." He broke off into a small sob.
"I-I love you-." He sobbed again and ran over to me. It was a little awkward, but I pulled him into a hug. I set Angel by his side and they grabbed each others hands again and cried silently.
There was a long silence and then I decided no one was going up…so I did. I looked back at Max and she gazed at me, with a small smile but her eyes still glossy and cheerless.
"Uhhhh…Iggy. You-You were the only guy who really knew me…who actually knew all my secrets." I choked back the huge lump in my throat, making my eyes sting as they started to fill up.
"I…I will never forget you. You were my brother…you were he guy that found out Max was going to have a b-baby." I stopped for a second, and then went on.
"You were the guy who edged me on to tell Max that I loved her…and I'm so glad you did. Thank you for everything you've done. I'm gonna miss your cooking."
I went back to where I was, but Max motioned me towards her. I went over and she let go of Nudge and wrapped her arms around me. I held onto her tight but she let go, pushed Nudge toward me and stood over Iggy's grave.
"Iggy, my little blind, trouble-making pyro." She forced a gloomy laugh and went on, "I never knew you did a bunch for mine and Fang's relationship. I-I wish you were here and I-I wasn't making this speech."
"I'm always gonna miss your cooking, your bright blue eyes, sarcasm and smart-ass remarks. But most of all, I'll never stop missing you. I-I love you Iggy and I c-cant believe that one-one of my babies are gone. I-I don't want to believe it…but I have-ave to."
She broke off into sobs and I came closer to her but she waved me down.
"I'll miss you Ig…forever and always. I l-love you." She put her face in her hands and she was shaking with sobs. I let Nudge go and walked up to her.
I faced her and pulled her into another hug.
"Shh…remember what's here?" I pressed my hand on her stomach and she sobbed and nodded. "It will be our Iggy. Iggy is going to be back in our lives within about 7 months." I felt her shake again in my arms.
I held her tightly. "Shh…it'll be okay. He's in a better place." I felt myself get teary eyed and I swallowed loudly. Max stopped and looked up at me.
"It's okay…it's okay to cry." She said, lovingly. I looked down at her tear-stained face and I felt my eyes sting for the hundredth time today.
"I-I it's ok- I don't need to-." She interrupted me.
"Everyone's crying…Iggy just died. You can cry." I looked back at Iggy's grave and then back at Max.
I felt my chin tremble and my eyes became blurry. I could faintly see the Flock as tears fell down my cheeks. I wiped them away and Max had a slight frown.
"I-uh…sorry." I said, but Max shook her head and rested it on my shoulder.
We all went up to his grave and put things on it.
Angel laid her little halo from which was ripped off of celestes head when the erasers took it. Gazzy set some kind of little paper bomb-thing. It had a little button but Gazzy didn't push it.
Nudge gently laid down a fragile lily that her and Iggy found when they were walking. I saw some of her tears fall into the middle of it and make a little puddle at the bottom.
Max went over and set a pack of matches that said: IGZ! Yo no show fer Yo!! ; And a Iggy's dark blue wind breaker. I grabbed a pretty big rock and set it on the grave site. I took out a sharpie and wrote,
Iggy
A great friend
An awesome bomb master
The best boyfriend
A perfect brother
A super chef
And most of all...
The greatest blind, pyro, bird-kid ever.
I stood up and looked at it all. It made me want to cry all over again. All the memories with Iggy and all the things he's done for me.
Then, everybody watched as the Gasman walked up to the paper bomb thing and pushed the button. At the top of the bomb, the fuse ushered a small 'boom' and confetti of all the flock's names and wings came shooting up like eight feet high and came floating down onto the grave.
My eyes blurred again as we all huddled up together and watched the confetti.
It was amazing. All of Iggy's handiwork.
And as the last of the confetti fell, we opened our wings, cried our goodbyes and flew off.
I didn't know where we were going…and today I didn't care.
