CHAPTER 10

Fang woke up smiling, the events of the night before coming back to him. He debated on rather it was too early to call Annica. He decided that he better call her and make sure that everything was still on for the day. He went down to the kitchen and was relieved to see that he was the first person up. He dialed her number hoping that it wasn't too early to call. He stood staring out the window longingly at the sky. He was startled out of his revelry by a "Hello, HELLO"

"Hello William this is Nick."

"Hey Nick just call me Billy, Annicas the only one that calls me William."

"Oh ok is she there?"

"She sure is. Just give her a minute we just finished sparring and I gave her a bloody nose. She's just getting cleaned up. So did your parent say you guys could come?"

"Yes we-----" Fang is cut off by Annica in the background saying "Dad give me the phone." "Sooooorry" Billy said as he handed her the phone.

"Hey Nick. Sorry about my dad."

"That's ok. Is your nose alright?"

"Oh yea its fine he just got in a lucky punch." she says with a little laugh. "So do all of you guys get to come?"

"Yeah we can." He had to pull the phone away from his ear as Annica screamed.

"I'm so glad you all get to come. I can't wait to get to know everyone. "

"I just need your address so Anne can bring us over."

"Oh that's ok we can come and pick you guys up. We have to stop at the store anyway, right dad." "That's fine with me" fang heard Billy say in the background. "Then we can just bring you guys home when were done."

"Ok. Is there anything that we need to bring or anything."

"If you have boots I would wear them but besides that we have everything that you'll need to play. Just be ready to have some good food and some serious fun. We'll come and get you around noon. Is that ok?"

"That's great.

"We'll see you then. Bye."

"Bye" Fang heard her give a "WHOOOOOO" before she disconnected the phone. Her excitement was infectious he couldn't help but smile. He turned from the window to find Angel standing their smiling up at him.

"What?" He said quickly wiping the smile off his face

"Nothing" she said giving him a big grin.

He hung up the phone just in time. The rest of the flock was starting to appear one by one in the kitchen for breakfast. When everyone was sitting around the table waiting for Iggy to finish cooking, Fang told them that everyone needed to be ready to go by noon. Everyone started to filter out one by one until it was just Fang and Max sitting at the table.

"I had to talk to Anne last night and convince her to let us go. She wasn't to please that you were so curt with her."

"Since when do I care if she's pleased."

"I'm with you Fang. Luckily she said that she had some stuff that she had to get done today so she was going to be gone anyway, but I think it might be beneficial if we stay on her good side since she is letting us stay here. Are you sure this is a good idea?"

"Max just gives her a chance. She's a lot more like us than you think." With that last statement he got up from the table and went upstairs to take a shower. Leaving Max sitting at the table completely perplexed.

What she's a mutant-bird teenager too? What no comments voice?


They were all sitting in the living room waiting when Angel said. "Why are you so nervous?" Everyone looked at Angel to see who she was talking about. They were all surprised to see that it was Fang that she was looking at. Fang shot her a you-have-to-stay-out-of-my-head look.

"I'm sorry but you were practically screaming it in your head." She said looking up at him innocently.

The rest of them were just staring at him with their mouths half hanging open. Luckily a car horn beeped. Fang looked out the window and saw Annica half hanging out the window waving.

Max gave them all the, you need to be on your best behavior speech before she would open the door. She finally opened the door. The younger ones barreled out the door followed by Fang. Max stayed in the back with Iggy.

Annica got out of the car and walked up to Fang and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Hi" she said smiling.

"Hey." was all he said. Avoiding looking in her eyes because, after the nervous incident he didn't want the flock to see that the kiss almost made him blush, and if he looked into those magnetic eyes of hers, he knew that he wouldn't be able to stop it.

Gazzy, Nudge, and Angel all snickered.

"Did she just kiss him?"

"Yes Jeff I did, on the cheek. Annica said walking over to Iggy and grabbing his hand to guide Him to the car.

When Annica grabbed Iggys hand to take him to the car Max had to resist the urge to rip his hand out of hers. What was that all about? If you took the time to stop and think about it you might figure it out. What the hell is that supposed to mean? Of course no reply, but always there with the riddles.

Total came running around the side of the house barking.

"Total you've gotta stay here." Fang said. Annica saw Angels face fall.

"He can come. We have lots of room for him to run."

"Really!" Angel said with a shinning smile. "Did you hear that total you can come." Angel said bending down to talk to Total.

"On one condition, as long as he can play nice with my dogs."

"You have to play nice ok?" Total barked in agreement.

"Smart dog." Annica said. This earned her a couple of muffled chuckles from the flock.

They all piled into the van. Annica sat in the front seat with her dad. They started down the long driveway out of Anne's.

"Everyone this is my dad William." She introduced them all to him.

"Please just call me Billy." He said with an eye roll in Annicas direction. "Now I hope your all hungry because at our house we don't know how to make just a little food." Nudge and Gazzy whooped and threw their hands up in the air with triumph like they had just won a gold medal.
