Well, I wanted to keep you waiting and keep up the suspense, but I got bored again. I need something to do with my hands, and my hands adore typing! So, yeah…..
I woke up on something soft and cozy. It was SOFT and COZY. What the fuck was wrong? I, the seven year old Maximum, who had been tested on EVERY DAY for the past two years, who was a stupid, worthless mutant who never got fair treatment, was attacked by erasers regularly, NEVER woke up on something warm, cozy, and/or soft. It just wasn't possible. But I might as well take advantage of it. I curled up into the bed. Or, that's what I thought it was. Who knows. All I know is that this was warm, comfy, cozy and luxuries, something I barely even knew anymore. Then, a second later, I heard a baby crying. I groaned.
What, another baby?! Gazzy's only TWO! They waited till Nudge was three to add Gazzy! God….
Wheer ist I?!
I almost passed out from shock.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" I screamed, glancing at my surroundings. I didn't recognize it. Not at all! Actually, it looked a little like the room I had shared with Fang in that house. I missed that house. This room had the same features, but it looked all different. More girly, built for me and a baby girl to live in. I knew my flock could sleep through a lot, so I wasn't sure if they where in….. wherever I was, or if they where nearby. I walked over to the baby's cradle. The baby looked about one, which means she was only about six months old. She had bright, intelligent blue eyes. She has light blonde hair, it flowed around her head like a halo.
"Well how are you today, you little angel?" I asked. She giggled. I decided to name her Angel. I gave her a bath, to fix her hair. It was kind of long for such a young girl. She must have had a lot of hair when she was born. Her hair was at her chin. It was all tangled and messy, so I put her in the bath. I discovered she could sit, crawl, and stand, even in the bathtub. Wow, this chick was smart.
"Cheeak! Cheeak!" she said.
"Wow, Angel! Your so smart! Oh, you don't even know my name yet! I'm Max! Your really cute, you know." I said, grinning at this cute, sweet little girl.
"Mwa-acks!" Angel said, excited for some reason. She was bouncing around in the water, her wings out and getting all soapy from the bubbles in her bath.
"Angel! You're getting your wings all soapy!" I said, smiling.
"Ang-el! Wuhinings soppy!" she squealed, giggling. I poured some clean water on her using the shower after I emptied the tub, then I dried her. I helped her walk back to our room, although she didn't seem to need it. She actually started RUNNING down the hall! Crazy little girl….. I followed her down the hall, she was screaming as she ran, her wings flapping behind her. She was so cute. I put her in a little t-shirt and a little pair of shorts. They where so cute. I would let Nudge dress her once a week, that girl seemed to love fashion. What day though? Hm….. probably Friday. I always liked Friday. I don't know why. But after that, I took Angel downstairs. Then, I hit an impasse. I couldn't cook. Iggy could cook, he always did. Nudge could sort of cook now, but she had never actually handled a stove. I burnt a salad once. And Angel was too little. But me and Angel where the only ones up. I thought. I heard a little, tired footstep on the stairs. Then some more. I could tell it was two people, probably Nudge and Gazzy. They came down. A tear was sliding down Gazzy's cheek.
"What's wrong with Gazzy, Nudge?" I asked.
"Somebody's talking to him in his head. It sounds like a little girl. He thinks it's a dead person." She said. I laughed.
"Mah-acks! Da-uts nut neeace!" Angel exclaimed.
"No, no, Angel, it's YOU! YOUR talking to Gazzy in your head!" I said, still laughing.
"Ouh….. OUH! PUR GAZTY!" Angel yelled.
"Huh?" Gazzy said.
"She can read minds, Gazzer. She can talk in our head's too." I told him.
"Yees sha cean!" Angel yelled.
"Yes, Angel, you can." I said, laughing. Nudge was grinning at Angel.
"Her name's Angel? She's so cute, Max! Can I PLLLLEEEEEEASE dress her up?!" Nudge squealed.
"Yeah, Nudge, every Friday. Is that okay with you? And maybe there is some dress up stuff around here now." I told her.
"Dees yups! Dees yups!" Angel squealed.
"Now, Nudge, Gaz, did you see Iggy or Fang?" I asked.
"Yeah," Nudge said, nodding, "Iggy's asleep and Fang…. Well, I can't get in the only room left. It's locked."
"Oh. That's strange. Who wants to go wake up Iggy?" I asked. Nudge and Gazzy's hands shot up, but Angel just asked me a question:
"Whoo Igsy?" she asked.
"Iggy is another family member. Like Nudge and Gazzy." I said.
"Whoo Neudge? Whoo Gazty?" she asked. I pointed at Nudge.
"This is Nudge," I said, then pointed at Gazzy, "and this is Gazzy."
"Ouh. Whoo Fanyg?" she asked.
"Fang is another brother. You'll meet him once we wake up Iggy." I said, pulling Angel out of the high chair I had put her in, even though she was almost too big for it. I held her hand and Nudge held her other one, and we helped her up the stairs. Then, she went running to the door to what I presume was Ig's room. She banged on it a couple times, then walked right in. I saw her grin at me, then turn to Iggy. A couple seconds later, Iggy was screaming and he ran into a wall. Nudge and Gazzy giggled while Angel burst into laughter. I walked over to Iggy, chuckling, and helped him up.
"Nice Job, Angel." I said.
"What?! What's happening?! What was there?! Where are we?!" Iggy said. Oh, yeah, he's blind. Duh. Maybe I shouldn't have let Angel do that….
"Bouts its whats funzy!" Angel cried.
"I know, sweetie, but Iggy's blind. He can't see you." I told her.
"Igsy noz seeps?! Ouh noz, Igsy, I fickts it! I mates yout seeps!" she cried, then ran over to Iggy and started feeling his face.
"Angel?! What are you doing to poor Iggy?!" Jeb cried. None of us had noticed him come in.
"Jeb?! Why are we back here?! Where's Fang?!" I yelled.
"What? Fang should be in his room." Jeb said.
"The door's locked! We can't get in! WHERE'S FANG?! STOP LYING!" I said, then kicked him.
"Ow! Max! You HAVE to stop doing that!" he said.
"It's how I get rid of my anger. You'll just have to live with being kicked until I find another punching bag." I said, shrugging.
"Oh, uh, ok then I guess. We'll try to find you something else to hurt, ok?" he said.
"Ok, I guess. Although it probably won't help much." I said.
"I still don't get what's going on!" Iggy shouted.
"Iggy, we use our indoor voices in the house. We also have a new Flock member, named Angel. She looks like Gazzy! Although, I guess it doesn't matter to you. She came to wake you up, she can read minds. She can also walk and sort of talk! And we also need you to pick the lock to get into Fang's room." Nudge said.
"Nudge, learn to keep your mouth shut!" I said.
"Oh, Angel and Gazzy are brother and sister." Jeb said.
"Yeah, we all are, Jeb. I thought you knew that." Nudge said.
"Well, Nudge, what I mean is that they have the same mom and dad. Max is like your mom, and I'm like your dad. We take care of you." Jeb said.
"Yeah!" I shouted.
"Max…" Nudge said.
"Shut up, Nudge, I'm older!" I said.
"No, I wont shut…." She said, until I put my hand over her mouth. She decided that biting me would be the good idea!
"Nudge! Why did you bite me?!" I screeched.
"You covered my mouth! I just did it without thinking! Sorry!" Nudge said.
"It's ok, Nudge." I said.
I've had this typed up for a month, I thought I posted it. Oopsies! Sorry times infinity, guys!
