Hey guys. I felt like updating again so here we are. I don't really have anything to say right now but read the author's note at the end. It's more important than this one. Thanks!

I opened the door to the front of the mall. The menacing Erasers(let's just assume that's what they are for now) looked down at us. They had really increased the size of these things. They were about 6 feet tall when they weren't morphed out. They still looked like your average early 20's male model but that's beside the point. They used to be about 5 foot 6 or so. They'd also made them more muscular.

"Follow us." the one in the middle with a dark red/brown colored hair said at what seemed to be his best shot at being intimidating. He lead us around to the back alley.

"Well Gee. Only cause you asked so politely." I said sarcastically as we were walking.

Of course. Of all the inconspicuous places they thought to bring us, they literally brought us to a dark alley. That'd be the first place someone would look for someone who was missing. Perhaps like we might in a few moments.

"Look birdies," he spat at us "we don't want trouble. Just come back with us and we can promise your absolute safety. We're tired of playing this game."

"Not a chance." I said.

"Don't make this harder than it has to be." Another big one said next to the red haired one. Since none of them were morphing yet I took this chance to lunge at one. I punched it square in the jaw and it fell to the ground. I jumped on top of his chest and started punching him all over until he eventually was down for the count. I looked around.

Fang and Iggy lunged at Erasers of their own. Fang was taking on about 6 or 7, Iggy following his lead. I jumped off of the Erasers' chest and lunged at another group. I had to mentally laugh. Here we were in a dark alley fighting Erasers in our pajama's near a mall that I'm at with my blood family. It certainly was a sight to see.

We found out that these were in fact only Erasers. The only difference between these ones and the old ones was that these ones were more enhanced. Everything about them was twice as good. Their teeth were sharper, they ran faster, had better reflexes, the whole cabob. They were still no match for us. It was the equivalent of a puppy on steroids. Yeah they were stronger but we still beat them to a pulp.

When we finished what seemed like hours later but according the where the place in the sky the sun was, we had only been at it for 10 minutes. Funny how time flies when your having fun huh?

We walked back into the mall. Great. Now we only had 30 minutes to pick out a complete outfit. We walked towards the spot that Ella had been standing waiting for us. It was near the food court. When we didn't see any signs of Ella I began to worry. Maybe some of the Erasers had snuck into the mall and kidnapped her like they did my mom. It made me almost want to cry. My mom was stronger, older. Ella was almost a year younger than me. She'd crack if they took her.

We walked over to the food court to look around. I spotted Casey at a table and soon noticed that everyone else was with her. Guess they decided to call off the contest. I looked at Nessa, who I guessed to be their model. She was wearing a mid-knee summer dress that had different kinds of flowers on it with a peach colored ribbon tied right under her torso. She was still in her converse so I knew that we weren't the only ones who were short on time.To be honest I don't think we had a chance. They had two fashion frenzied people on there team and we only had one. [picture on my profile]

"Are you guys ok?" Ella ran up to us and asked with worrying covering her pretty face.

Iggy suddenly started holding his shoulder and groaning. "I got stabbed!" Ella's eyes got huge and she ran over to him. I slapped him on the shoulder.

"Ignore him Ella. He did not." I said. Fang was half smiling next to me.

The rest of the group joined us by then. They all asked if we were ok. I could see Fang whispering something to Casey by a table at the food court. I caught his eye and I raised an eyebrow. He half smiled and looked back to Casey. She was smiling from ear to ear. Danny walked up to me.

"Are you ok Max?" He asked.

I looked at away from Fang to Danny. "I'm fine. Are you guys ok?"

He looked confused. "Yeah. Why wouldn't we be?"

"Just wondering." I glanced back at Fang who was still deep in conversation with Casey.

"Oh. We decided to call off the contest. One because of the Erasers and two because you can now clearly see Nessa's outfit." he said frowning slightly.

"So you were gonna cheat for us, huh?" I asked glancing at Danny's face.

"Not for 'us'. For you." he said.

"What's that supposed to mean?" I asked confused.

"I didn't do it for Fang, Iggy or Ella. I did it for you. Or at least I was going to do it for you until we got interrupted."

"Danny, why would you do that for me?" I asked. I remembered our conversation at the club last night. He said I was cute. That didn't mean he like me did it?

As if hearing my thoughts he answered "Because I think your awesome and I really like you."

"Don't say stuff like that Danny." I looked straight into his emerald eyes.

"Why?" he asked. "Because you feel the same way?"

"I'm with Fang." I stated.

"That wasn't a no. You do like me." he said excitement flooding his face.

"I didn't say that. Even if I did like as more than a friend, which I don't, it wouldn't work out." I said. "I'm on the move to much. Plus there's the whole Fang thing."

His face lost all excitement. "Oh. Well I guess I should go check and see if Iggy's ok now."

He walked away from me frowning. Notice how he said 'I should go check and see if Iggy's ok now.' and not Iggy and Fang. I had a feeling my life was about to get that much more complicated.

We returned home a little early. Fang never told me what he was talking to Casey about. He denied ever talking to her but I knew he did. I could see it in his eyes that he was lying. Plus I saw him. When I asked Casey she said it wasn't important.

When we got back to the 'Estate' as Carl calls it I decided to hold a flock meeting deep in the forest. All traces of the party that was going on were erased even from our sight. It was only four thirty, more or less.

"So nothing suspicious happened here?" I asked.

"Not really. Your Aunt Juli was gone for a while but your mom just said that it was because she went to get more groceries for dinner tonight. She hasn't come back yet though." Angel answered.

"Can you pick up anything from her mind?"

"Her thoughts are normal. Although she thinks about your mom and Cassity a lot." she said.

"What does she think of my mom?"

"She's jealous of her. She thinks her mom always liked her best." Angel stated.

"Hm, that's interesting." I stated. I'd have to tell my mom about that later. "But back to business. We have to be on guard for Erasers again, as much as I hate to say it."

Nudge groaned. "Great. Just perfect. We have to go back to being on the run now don't we?"

"I don't know yet Nudge. Let's just wait till the end of the week and we'll decide then." I said. If they attacked us again then we'd most likely have to leave, the only problem was how were we supposed to explain to my family that we had to leave and my mom didn't even though she was our legal guardian? "Just be on guard. Be prepared for anything."

They all nodded and we headed back to the reunion before anyone would notice that we were missing. All the younger kids ran all the way back, eager to go back to playing with their new friends that they made. Iggy, Fang and I walked back, not as anxious as they were.

"So what was up with you talking to Casey?" I asked for the third time that day.

Fang sighed and Iggy tried to hide a smirk but I saw it before he could hide it. He knew.

"Do you really wanna know?" Fang asked.

"Yes!"

"Sorry I can't tell you." he said.

"What?! Why not?" I asked outraged.

He gave me his signature smirk. "It's a surprise."

"Please Fang?" I said pretending to pout. He's eyes got softer. I could see that he was about to give in but Iggy spoke and ruined it.

"If you two are gonna get all mushy I'm leaving."

Fang looked away. Darn. My plan was foiled. "Come on Fang. You know I hate surprises."

"You'll find out soon enough." he said staring straight ahead. "What were you talking to Danny about?"

" 'I can't tell you it's a surprise'." I said mocking him. He rolled his eyes. "I'll tell you, when you tell me."

"I'll hold you to that." he said looking me straight in the eyes.

"Great. Then it's settled. You'll tell me right now!" I said with artificial enthusiasm.

"Not gonna happen." he said. We were back at the reunion again. I had a feeling something was about to change really soon though.

Hopefully it was just a feeling.

Ok guys so I have a question for you:

I was thinking about giving Max or Fang a new power but I'm not sure what power I should give them. I just don't think that either of them have that many powers. So I need to know what powers you think I should give them. Please something original or that hasn't been done a lot. Also I need to know which one to give it to. You can pick both if you want to. I just need a few idea's.

If you guys could help me out it'd be much appreciated. If don't get that many suggestions I either won't give them new powers or I'll just pick something cliché. I don't know yet though.

Oh yeah and I took the poll off of my profile. And also do you guys think my chapters are short or long?

Thanks for reading guys. Don't forget to review and give me your opinion!

Peace, Love and Chocolate,
